Water Ink Panel: Starting with Bow Technique to Hunt the Sun and Patrol the Skies

```

The setting sun was as red as blood, and suddenly countless flocks of birds scattered, startled, from the vast mountain forest.

A black bear demon, as massive as a mountain, fell to the ground with a loud crash, revealing a bloody hole in its chest. Warm blood gushed continuously from the gaping wound.

Moments later, a rustling disturbed the underbrush, and a man with a bare chest and holding a treasured bow emerged.

It was none other than Shen Qing himself, who had been traveling southward.

He looked down at the corpse of the black bear demon and muttered to himself, "I didn't expect such a remote place to hide a demon like this, devouring all nearby towns. I've never seen a sight like this before, where you could go ten miles without hearing a rooster crow or a hundred miles without any sign of life."

Shen Qing reached out and retrieved a dark demon core from the corpse.

He gazed at the demon core, sensing the violent energy contained within, and smiled faintly.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Qing blew on the demon core.

Gray impurities were blown away in an instant, and the once dark demon core became as pure as a black pearl.

Without hesitation, Shen Qing tossed the demon core into his mouth and chewed it like candy.

The familiar pure energy was absorbed into his abdomen, transforming into a gentle stream that coursed through every inch of his flesh and veins.

Shen Qing let out a long breath and felt utterly comfortable.

On this journey, he had slain countless demons, leaving practically no demon alive wherever he went.

The so-called 'vegetable cities' of various families were entirely reaped by him, benefiting him greatly.

Several rounds of this had significantly advanced his cultivation.

Shen Qing exhaled a mouthful of turbid air and relaxed his hand, noticing that his physical shell had become more robust, and his spirit had regained some vitality, able to last for two time periods amidst heaven and earth.

Continuing like this, it was only a matter of time before he could breakthrough to the Void Roaming Realm.

Shen Qing restrained his ocean-like aura and used his qi to cut off the bear's paw and gall, storing them in his storage pouch.

'This black bear is a treasure from head to toe; it's a pity I can't take it all. I can only take away the most valuable items.'

With a leap, he continued to speed southward.

Shen Qing, perhaps due to a superstition, felt that the closer he got to the Huangtian Sacred Mountain, the fewer demons he encountered, a stark contrast to the scene under Great Zhou's rule.

Several days later, within five hundred miles of the Huangtian Sacred Mountain, a natural cave began to radiate light among steep mountains.

Deep within the cave, Shen Qing sat cross-legged on a green rock, eyes closed, deeply meditative and immersed in cultivation.

At that moment, gentle spiritual energy fluctuations surrounded him, making him appear like an ascetic exile.

Outside the cave, dark clouds loomed.

Silver lightning streaked across the sky, accompanied by deafening thunder, with torrential rain pouring down.

At first glance, it seemed as if the Milky Way was hanging upside down, enveloping the entire mountain range in a hazy mist.

At that moment, Shen Qing inexplicably felt a wave of agitation in his heart.

He opened his eyes suddenly, with sharp light in his gaze, as if two blades pierced through the rain curtain. His aura underwent a dramatic change, and an indescribable power quietly surged out from within him.

'After such a long period of cultivating the Six Paths Reincarnation Technique, I feel myself mastering the profound transformation mystery of the Hell Path. Every time I train in this technique, I feel renewed.'

Shen Qing stretched his body, emitting a crackling sound throughout, which was on par with the thunder outside, impressive and astonishing.

'After more than a month of demon hunting, it seems like the Sun Shooting Bow Technique is almost there as well.'

With a thought, he summoned the Ink Panel.

Before him, the martial arts information about the Sun Shooting Bow Technique was fully displayed.

[Technique: Sun Shooting Bow Technique (Entry Level)]

[Progress: 5015/5000 points]

[State: Breakthrough available]

The corners of Shen Qing's mouth slightly lifted.

'Breakthrough!'

A powerful force suddenly enveloped his body.

The information about the martial arts technique on the Ink Panel simultaneously refreshed.

[Technique: Sun Shooting Bow Technique (Skillfully)]

[Progress: 15/7000 points]

[State: Not available for breakthrough] Explore new worlds at My Virtual Library Empire

[Remark: To retreat in adversity is to regress. In martial arts, perseverance is of utmost value. Through diligent practice, the bow technique you have mastered possesses an ever-changing capability, no longer limited by the state of the arrow, allowing for confident exploration during use.]

'Ever-changing capability?'

Shen Qing's heart tightened.

About a quarter of an hour later, Shen Qing fully absorbed the memories of the breakthrough in the Sun Shooting Technique.

Shen Qing suddenly stood up, with a flick of his wrist, retrieving his treasured bow from his storage pouch.

Leaping up, he dashed out of the cave, poised in the midst of the rain curtain.

The rain poured ruthlessly like columns.

Shen Qing manipulated his spiritual power to isolate the rain, remaining serene and unmoved by external objects.

His gaze naturally fell on a mountain peak not far away.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Qing tensed his arm muscles, pulling the bowstring to its limit.

The muscle-bound memory activated at this moment, making the motion feel exceedingly familiar.

His vast and mighty spiritual power was infused entirely into the treasured bow.

In an instant, the bow shimmered with radiant colors.

From its front end, a dazzling golden light blade quietly formed, crescent-shaped, blazing brightly and exuding a menacing sharpness.

Shen Qing's eyes shone with a cold gleam. In a low murmur, he suddenly released his grip.

The golden light blade, brimming with limitless spiritual power and before the bow, like the first ray of dawn, broke its constraints, slicing through the skies with destructive force, heading straight for a towering mountain in the distance.

Boom!

The light blade left a clearly visible fissure in the air as it passed.

The once indestructible mountain peak before him, under this force, shattered like fragile porcelain, splitting apart, with boulders tumbling and dust flying, rendering all who witnessed it in awe.

Not only that, the golden light blade, after severing the mountain, continued unabated.

It pierced through layers of black clouds, scattering the gloom that obscured the sky, as if Shen Qing released a pent-up fury, dispelling long-held oppression.

Rumbling...

Behind the black clouds, a brilliant long ray appeared like the sun.

With the black clouds fading, the downpour ceased abruptly.

The long-awaited sunlight eagerly breached the clouds, spilling upon the earth.

All things revived, bathed in warm and harmonious light, with golden gleams shimmering across the entire mountain range.

Shen Qing watched the scene, a hint of astonishment flashing across his face.

This strike was something an ordinary Martial Master in the Primordial Spirit Realm couldn't easily withstand.

He couldn't help but look forward to the future potential of the Sun Shooting Bow Technique.

Collecting his thoughts, Shen Qing flicked his hand.

The treasured bow burst into a clear light and was reabsorbed into his storage pouch.

After determining the direction, Shen Qing activated his rainbow light and leaped, soaring towards the Huangtian Sacred Mountain.

For Shen Qing, the five hundred li distance was nothing more than half a day's cultivation techniques.

After a swift journey, Shen Qing found himself unknowingly standing at the foot of the Huangtian Sacred Mountain.
