After the Cyclic Astral Lord lost his smile, the originally harmonious atmosphere between the two vanished without a trace. The atmosphere turned silent and oppressive.
For some reason, Xiao Chen felt very at ease. He felt relaxed in his heart and did not regret it at all.
Perhaps it was because Xiao Chen did not like to wear a mask or disguise when conversing with others. He did not like others wearing a mask to interact with him.
That way, it would be boring and oppressive. Xiao Chen faced his heart. He was such a person. Even though the Cyclic Astral Lord was a Prime, Xiao Chen was not willing to speak to him while wearing a mask.
The Cyclic Astral Lord said indifferently, "Xiao Chen, not to mention that you have not advanced to Martial Emperor yet, even if you did, you would still be a minor character in my eyes. Don't think too highly of yourself. You simply do not understand the world that I see. "
Xiao Chen smiled calmly and said, "What is there to not understand? Isn't it just being a Prime with no way out? You do not have the courage of the Thunder King, daring to try the path that no one dares to take?
"The ambition and desire in your heart prevent you from being satisfied with your current accomplishments. Even if it is Zodiac Hall, as long as it can fulfill your ambition, you can easily give up on it."
"Whoosh!"
The temperature of the place suddenly plummeted. Xiao Chen was clearly not far from the Solar True Flame, but he felt a chill down his spine, chilling his heart.
The Cyclic Astral Lord's expression did not change. However, he did not hide his killing Qi well, and it leaked out.
"Continue!" the Cyclic Astral Lord said, enunciating every word with a sullen expression, not showing any emotional fluctuations.
If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely not dare to continue in such a situation. They feared enraging the Cyclic Astral Lord and getting killed.
Xiao Chen did not care. He already figured out what kind of person the other party was. In that case, there was nothing to fear.
Furthermore, Xiao Chen firmly believed that this Cyclic Astral Lord would not dare to make a move on him.
"There is only one reason why you rejected the Deity Race. The Deity Race's conditions do not allow you to leave this abandoned land. The great chaos of the Kunlun Realm, the calamity of the Demons, and the survival of Zodiac Hall have nothing to do with you. You have long since grown tired of all this.
"Only I, only I can show you the hope of leaving this abandoned land."
Xiao Chen organized all the clues that he knew in his mind, meticulously analyzing them.
Among the Supreme-Beings he had met before, Big Brother Ying Zongtian was also ambitious, and wanted to leave this Banished Land. However, in the depths of Xiao Chen's heart, he was filled with worries. He could not let go of the Haotian Sect or his friends and family in the Kunlun Realm.
Even if he really had the chance to leave the Land of Exile, he might not be able to bring himself to do so.
However, this Cyclic Astral Lord was different. As long as he had the chance, he would be willing to bury the entire Zodiac Hall with him. As long as he could fulfill his wish, he could give up everything.
As for the Myriad-Law Demon Master, he was indifferent to everything. Everything went according to his heart. If he could do it, then so be it. If he couldn't, then so be it.
Xiao Chen spoke bluntly, not avoiding any taboo topics.
The Cyclic Astral Lord smiled faintly and said, "You are really good at guessing. However, you definitely would not have guessed that the Northern Sea Alliance, which you feel the most at ease with, is currently in internal strife. You also would not have guessed that no matter how much effort you put in, with just one word from the Lunar Palace, all the Holy Lands would change sides. "
Xiao Chen's expression changed slightly, and the fluctuations in his heart appeared on his face. This made the Cyclic Astral Lord reveal another smile.
"As long as you say the word, I can help you settle the internal strife of the Northern Sea Alliance and refine the Cycle Banner. I can even give you this Solar True Flame."
"What word?"
The Cyclic Astral Lord removed his disguise and took out a scarlet stone. Then, he stated his purpose. "This is a Heavenly Heart Stone, obtained from the Heavenly Dao. All you need to do is swear to bring me out of this Banished Land within one hundred years. "
"An Oath Stone!" Little Three suddenly spoke from the Three Life Mirror, making Xiao Chen rejoice in his heart. He replied, "Little Three, you woke up?"
"Hehe! Isn't that obvious? Elder Brother White Robes, if I did not wake up, how would Little Three talk to you? Elder Brother White Robes, you have to be careful with this Oath Stone. If you fail to do so, all the oaths will take effect. "
Xiao Chen was stunned. Unexpectedly, there was such a strange thing in the world.
The Cyclic Astral Lord continued, "If you fail, your heart will shatter and you will die!"
With the other Holy Lord, he spoke of favors and friendship. However, with this Cyclic Astral Lord, it was a bare transaction; there was no such thing as favors.
Or rather, the pride in the Cyclic Astral Lord's heart made him disdainful of talking about favors with people like Xiao Chen.
In the Kunlun Realm, no matter who it was, the Cyclic Astral Lord did not care about favors.
This person before the Cyclic Astral Lord was extremely terrifying. If the Cyclic Astral Lord allowed the Cyclic Astral Lord to charge out of this abandoned land, he would definitely make a move on Xiao Chen. This was equivalent to using the benefits before him to create a strong opponent for himself in the future.
Xiao Chen repeatedly weighed the pros and cons in his mind. After a moment of silence, he said, "Deal!"
The Cyclic Astral Lord smiled faintly and said, "Even if you can see through my heart, you cannot reject my conditions. No matter how great your accomplishments are in the future, you are destined to benefit me!"
After saying that, the Cyclic Astral Lord tossed the Oath Stone to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen held the Oath Stone in his hand and gave the other party a deep look. This was a gamble. However, at this point, Xiao Chen had to gamble.
He was different from the Cyclic Astral Lord. Be it the Haotian Sect or the Northern Sea Alliance, they were existences that he could not part with.
Even if it was clearly disadvantageous to him, he had to agree to the other party's conditions.
"I, Xiao Chen, swear that I will bring the Cyclic Astral Lord away from this abandoned land within one hundred years. Otherwise, my heart will shatter and I will die!"
After Xiao Chen swore the oath, the mysterious stone in his hand melted in his palm and flowed into his body, vanishing.
When the Cyclic Astral Lord saw Xiao Chen finish his oath, he revealed a satisfied expression. He said, "Stay here for three days. Take as much of the Solar True Flame and the Lunar True Flame as you can."
Xiao Chen asked sullenly, "Let me ask you something. Do you know where the Thunder King is?"
"Why the need to ask? Since you already swore, you will walk the path of the Thunder King sooner or later. Just refine the flame here in peace and think about how to deal with the Lunar Palace. I can only help you deal with the Northern Sea Alliance's problem. "
After leaving that sentence, the Cyclic Astral Lord left.
Seeing the other party leave, Little Three immediately leaped out of the Immortal Spirit Ring. Ao Jiao quickly followed behind, staring at the Solar True Flame in a daze.
Xiao Chen knew what Ao Jiao was thinking. He asked, "Ao Jiao, can the flame here revive Little Yellow Feather quickly?"
Ao Jiao shook her head and replied, "I'm not sure. The Solar Divine Flame is of a higher grade than the Solar True Flame. However, the Solar True Flame here has already reached its peak. Furthermore, it has been here for tens of thousands of years. It is hard to say. "
"In that case, there is no need to worry about it. I'll give it a try for now. Since this Cyclic Astral Lord agreed to give me three days, I have to make good use of it."
After Xiao Chen spoke, he placed the Golden Crow egg into the Solar True Flame.
After that, a light flashed in each of Xiao Chen's eyes, and they started spinning quickly.
A suction force spread out, and the Solar True Flame and Lunar True Flame in the vast flame pool turned into motes of light, continuously entering Xiao Chen's eyes.
Xiao Chen sat cross-legged, absorbing and refining as he did so.
At the same time, he thought hard about what the Cyclic Astral Lord said. The Northern Sea Alliance had internal strife.
Without needing to guess, Xiao Chen was sure that the Deity Dao Union was causing trouble. Since the Cyclic Astral Lord agreed to deal with it, there was no need to think about it for now.
Right now, Xiao Chen should be thinking about how to deal with the Lunar Palace's problem. He had not expected the Lunar Palace to have such strong influence.
The Deity Dao Union had been harassing Xiao Chen, preventing him from interacting with the other Holy Lands. They had placed all their trump cards on him.
The other party probably thought the same. As long as they placed all their resources on the Lunar Palace and successfully persuaded them, they could turn the situation around in one go.
However, how should the Lunar Palace break out of this situation?
The Lunar Palace had already said that Bright Moon City did not welcome Xiao Chen, the descendant of the Qing Emperor.
