Upon seeing the arrow, Elder Kong and the experts of the Divine Bow Palace knew that the Old Matriarch was about to get serious. To show that she would not bully a junior, Old Matriarch Mei did not use her own immortal bow; instead, she took the Nine-Dragon Divine Fire Bow from Mei Nianjiao.
Everyone watched intently as Old Matriarch Mei nocked the twin-serpent arrow onto the string. However, she did not aim at Chen Xuan. Instead, she raised the bow toward the sky, intending to fire the shot into the Thirty-Three Heavens.
"Piercing the Nine Heavens" was one of the Divine Bow Palace’s supreme techniques. The "Nine Heavens" was a figurative term used to denote the Thirty-Three Heavens. While the Thirty-Three Heavens were a forbidden realm where even Immortal Emperors had to tread carefully, it was impossible for a single arrow to truly pierce through them. Thus, the "Nine Heavens" served as a literal reference as well.
