The Black Jackal Honored One, seated in the main seat, immediately tensed up at this scene.

Could this be the so-called opportune moment to act?

Or was it the arrangement mentioned by another senior to deal with Guan Xuzi?

Under the Black Jackal Honored One's nervous gaze, an Honored One of the Immortal Clan was brought in.

That person looked anxious and went directly to Guan Xuzi.

The two whispered for a while, their expressions becoming more and more serious.

Because they had used secret techniques to isolate their auras, no matter how anxious the Black Jackal Honored One was, he couldn't eavesdrop on what they were saying.

After a moment, Guan Xuzi instructed the Honored One who had come to deliver the message, then turned to Elder Lin beside him and said:

"Old Lin, there are some urgent matters in the clan that require me to return immediately to deal with them."

"This is Jian Qiong Cang, the Third Elder of the Sword Clan of the Immortal Clan. I'll have him stay here in my place."

No one knew what Jian Qiong Cang had said to Guan Xuzi, but Guan Xuzi looked anxious and stood up, ready to leave.

As for Shen Lin, he planned to leave the newly arrived Honored One to take care of him.

But besides that…

He raised his head to look at Shen Lin in the light screen and said in a low voice:

"That kid, I'll have to trouble you to keep an eye on him…"

Elder Lin stroked his beard with a serious expression and said, "Don't worry, with me watching, nothing will happen to him."

Guan Xuzi nodded, his expression relaxing a little.

But before leaving, he still transmitted a voice to Elder Lin: "Be careful, I have a feeling that this place is a bit strange."

Then, after greeting the Black Jackal Honored One, Guan Xuzi left the Ancient Burial Ground without a moment's delay.

Behind him, Elder Lin, who had heard his voice transmission, remained expressionless, appearing very calm.

But a glint flashed in his eyes.

He casually glanced at a person who had been following him.

This Honored One had been saved by one of his pills, and since then, he had voluntarily followed Elder Lin to protect his safety.

His name was not well-known in the Chaos Sea, and few people knew that this guard beside Elder Lin was actually an Honored One.

Moreover, he was the kind of existence who was considered a strong one even among Honored Ones.

With him protecting him, Elder Lin felt that he shouldn't be in any danger.

Besides…

He glanced at his side.

Even if the Black Jackal Clan wanted to do something this time, there were still many big shots here besides him.

That Jian Qiong Cang seemed to have been sent by the Immortal Clan to deliver a message, but from his surname, it could be seen that he came from the Jian family, the number one family of the Immortal Clan.

His combat power was definitely not something that ordinary Honored Ones could compare to.

In addition to Wu Buqun, an outstanding weapon refiner with equally powerful combat strength.

With just these people, it would be enough to sweep through the Black Jackal Clan.

Thinking of this, Elder Lin's heart, which had been made nervous by Guan Xuzi, calmed down a lot.

… …

The intervening zone between the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Guan Xuzi flew forward anxiously, surrounded by formations that maximized his speed.

If it weren't for the strict defenses of Pure Void Heaven, and the fact that entering through the spatial teleportation array from the outside could only rely on a few specific nodes, Guan Xuzi would have teleported back at the first moment.

"Why did it have to be at this time…"

Guan Xuzi frowned tightly, and hadn't relaxed since hearing the news.

Sword Honored One, was about to break through to Dao Integration.

He needed Guan Xuzi to return immediately to preside over the formation.

Sword Honored One was the white-browed old man who had approved unlimited cultivation resources for Shen Lin.

Sword Honored One held a noble position in the Immortal Clan, second only to that Dao Integration Realm expert.

There were even rumors that if Sword Honored One hadn't chosen the Great Dao of the Sword, he would have already achieved Dao Integration by now.

The Great Dao of the Sword could be considered one of the most complicated Great Daos in the Chaos Sea, making Dao Integration extremely difficult.

As far as Guan Xuzi knew, Sword Honored One had actually had opportunities to break through to Dao Integration in recent years.

But in order to make the Dao Integration process smoother and increase the chances of success, he hadn't rushed to break through and had been polishing himself.

But why was he thinking of breaking through today?

Filled with doubt, Guan Xuzi returned to Pure Void Heaven as quickly as possible.

"Holy Lord Guan Xuzi, why are you back so soon?"

A Saint Realm Immortal Clan member patrolling outside Pure Void Heaven looked at Guan Xuzi in surprise.

Guan Xuzi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, "You're still asking me? Could it be that you…"

But he stopped halfway through his sentence, shook his head, and entered Pure Void Heaven directly.

Logically speaking, such a major event as Sword Honored One's breakthrough would mobilize the entire Immortal Clan.

After all, this was a major event related to the future of the Immortal Clan, awakening the Dao Integration expert, activating the clan-protecting formation, recalling all clansmen from abroad…

No amount of seriousness would be too much.

But now, looking at this Saint Realm expert responsible for patrolling, Guan Xuzi didn't see any sense of urgency in his eyes.

Could it be that they were outwardly relaxed but inwardly tense, and hadn't informed the periphery of this matter in order to confuse other races?

Guan Xuzi had originally thought so.

However, when he entered Pure Void Heaven and saw the still lively cities, he was immediately a little dazed.

What the heck was going on?

Why did the entire Immortal Clan seem so peaceful and relaxed?

Wasn't this being too careless?

What if other races discovered Sword Honored One's breakthrough and launched a large-scale attack?

Guan Xuzi flew to Sword Honored One's residence with worry.

It was an ordinary-looking small mountain, filled with bamboo groves. From the outside, there was nothing unusual.

But Guan Xuzi understood that after passing through the formation of that mountain, he would probably encounter almost all of the Immortal Clan's Honored One Realm experts gathered together.

Taking a deep breath, Guan Xuzi passed through the bamboo mountain barrier with a solemn expression and entered it.

And then…

He saw the white-browed old Daoist roasting meat in the bamboo forest.

"Eh? Little Guan Xuzi, why are you here? That's great, that's great, my roasted rabbit meat is just about ready. Can you go get some seasoning?"

Seeing the white-browed old Daoist like this, Guan Xuzi's eyes widened suddenly.

He turned his head to look around in disbelief, his eyes gradually becoming serious.

Not good, there's a problem!

This scene didn't look like Sword Honored One was breaking through at all.

He had been tricked.

In that case, that Jian Qiong Cang…

Just as Guan Xuzi secretly cried out that things were bad and cursed in his heart, the white-browed old Daoist appeared beside him in a flash.

Seeming to notice that Guan Xuzi's expression was wrong, he said directly, "What's wrong?"

"Jian Qiong Cang told me that you were preparing to break through to Dao Integration…"

Guan Xuzi quickly explained the matter.

"…That's how it is. Senior Sword Honored One, I suspect that someone wants to harm that kid Shen Lin, and even bribed high-level members of the clan to help them act…"

Before he could finish speaking, Sword Honored One sighed, raised his hand, and interrupted him.

"Why deceive yourself…"

"I think it's not that someone in the clan was bribed."

"But rather, those who are targeting that kid are already members of the clan!"

"What do you say…"

Sword Honored One slowly raised his head to look at the sky with a smile that was not a smile, and said in a deep voice:

"Dao Honored One friend?"
