"Hurry up and leave. Someone is chasing after you. It seems that they have set their eyes on you."
Chen Xiao was about to turn around and check when he heard Xi Luo's loud shout.
His heart trembled, and he suddenly sped up, escaping from this place.
However, he could not help but ask curiously, "Who is it?"
"Two cultivators from the Sky Fire Dao Gate have set their eyes on you and are currently chasing after you," Xi Luo said.
"Woof." Hei Zi barked, looking very restless.
"What should we do now?" Chen Xiao was anxious and did not know what to do.
"Do you want to leave? Stay."
"Hmph, if you know what's good for you, then stay and leave the Undying Flame Crystals. You can escape by yourself. Such a treasure is not something a mere rogue cultivator like you can touch."
At this time, two stern voices came from behind him, carrying a threatening tone.
Sure enough, two cultivators from the Sky Fire Dao Gate chased after him. One was at the Third Calamity Realm, and the other was at the Fourth Calamity Realm. They chased after Chen Xiao relentlessly, wanting to kill him and seize the treasure.
One of them was Sun Xingping.
Soon, the distance between the two sides closed. After all, they were in the lava lake, and the two of them were fire elementalists. They were like fish in water, and their speed was much faster than Chen Xiao's.
At this time, Sun Xingping's eyes flashed, and he recognized Chen Xiao as well. He said in surprise, "It's him."
The companion beside him was a little surprised when he saw him. "You know this person?"
Sun Xingping shook his head and said, "I don't know him. I have only met him once. Previously, this person wanted to fight for a Fire Spirit Fruit, but I scared him away. That's all."
His companion laughed out loud, "So that's how it is. It seems that this person is also a coward. He is not worth fearing."
"En." Sun Xingping nodded and agreed.
Back then, he had only appeared, and had not even made a move, yet he had already scared the other party away. It seemed that this person was also ordinary in strength, and there was nothing special about him. Thus, he was afraid and retreated.
This way, it saved him a lot of trouble.
His companion's confidence immediately increased, "Come, let's go meet this person. If he doesn't know what's good for him, hmph, he won't be able to escape."
"En."
"Let's go."
Immediately, the two of them sped up and chased after Chen Xiao.
"Be careful, they are chasing after us. They are accelerating."
In the Sea of Soul, Xi Luo reminded him.
Chen Xiao's heart trembled, and he became nervous. However, he did not lower his speed, and instead sped up.
At this time, when Sun Xingping and his companion saw this, their expressions immediately became gloomy.
"He is accelerating. It seems that he wants to escape. Hmph, can you escape? Die."
His companion raised his hand, and a flaming palm condensed. Although it was not big, only about ten feet in size, its power was extraordinary.
Especially under this magma lake that was filled with flames, this attack was even more shocking.
"Be careful of your back."
Xiao shouted.
Chen Xiao turned around fiercely. His eyes were filled with flames. He snorted coldly, and a ghostly flame appeared on his body. He raised his hand and struck out with his palm.
The black flames burned and rolled, and the shocking air waves spread out as the palm attacked.
Boom!
The palm collided with a muffled sound, and an explosion occurred. The shockwave spread out, and it was especially terrifying.
Using the recoil of the shockwave, Chen Xiao dodged to the side and avoided the attack of the other party.
"Huh? Kid, you have some strength. I have underestimated you."
The male cultivator of the Sky Fire Dao Sect who was at the Fourth Calamity Realm said coldly.
"You actually broke through to the Third Calamity Realm. And the black flames on your body, why does it feel so strange? What is your background?"
Sun Xingping stared at the other party and questioned.
Chen Xiao saw this and squinted his eyes. "I can choose not to answer you, right?"
"Heh, arrogant brat, I can only give you a chance to speak. I'm afraid that you won't have the chance to leave behind your last words later."
His companion at the side cursed loudly.
Sun Xingping frowned and asked, "Kid, you are very young, and your strength and talent are not bad. Moreover, you have a great opportunity. If you die here like this, I'm afraid it won't be worth it."
Hearing this, Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows and smiled without denying it. He did not immediately reply.
"Why haven't they made a move yet?" In his heart, Chen Xiao asked himself.
"It's very simple. They also have some concerns in their hearts. This is a magma lake, and it's also the core area of the Earth Flame Absolute Valley. If something unexpected happens, even if it's the two of them, one at the Third Calamity Realm and one at the Fourth Calamity Realm, they don't have absolute confidence that they can leave alive.
"In other words, unless they were forced to, they would not easily start a conflict, fight to the death, and consume their own strength."
Xilo explained in detail, seeing through the thoughts of these two people with a single glance.
"Oh, so that's how it is." Chen Xiao's face was filled with understanding.
This way, it was reasonable. Why didn't the two of them attack directly? It turned out that they were worried that once they started fighting, even if they could defeat Chen Xiao, they would have to pay a heavy price.
That was why they hesitated.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiao sneered and said, "What if I don't hand over the Undying Flame Crystal?"
Hearing this, Sun Xing's expression changed, "You are courting death, brat."
"Brat, let me ask you one last time, do you want to hand it over or not?"
His companion could not hold it in any longer and scolded.
Chen Xiao lowered his head, a sinister look flashing across his eyes. Then he raised his head, his eyes clear as he slowly said, "I want to hand it over."
Sun Xingping was stunned. He was very surprised. He originally thought that the other party would be as stubborn as his mouth, but he didn't expect that he would change his mind at the critical moment.
What an interesting brat. He was quite sensible.
He stretched out his right hand, "Since that's the case, hand it over."
"Brat, don't play any tricks. I have been watching you all this time."
When his companion saw this, he said coldly. His eyes were filled with a vicious look as he stared at Chen Xiao, afraid that the other party would go back on his word.
Chen Xiao was expressionless as he took out a treasure box and placed it in his palm.
In an instant, their gazes were attracted over.
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "The Undying Flame Crystal is right here. If I hand it over, the two of you are willing to let me go."
Sun Xingping's face darkened as he replied, "Of course. As long as you hand over the Undying Flame Crystal, I won't make things difficult for you."
"Hurry up, don't dawdle." Another cultivator urged unhappily.
Chen Xiao nodded. "Alright, I'll give it to you then. It's more important for me to live. Here."
As he spoke, Chen Xiao threw the treasure box to the two of them, but suddenly changed his direction and threw it to the other side.
When Sun Xingping and the other cultivator saw this, their eyes spewed fire and they were furious.
"Kid, are you playing tricks?"
"I don't trust you guys. You have to give me some time to escape," Chen Xiao said coldly.
As he spoke, he had already used all his strength to escape, not wanting to stay for a moment longer.
Sun Xingping chased after him without a word and grabbed the treasure box, opening it to take a look.
He saw that there was a green talisman in the treasure box. After it was opened, it opened with a bang, and a green whirlwind swept over. The wind helped the fire, and the wood gave birth to the fire. It actually created a flaming tornado under the lake. In just an instant, it completely engulfed the two of them, making it impossible for them to escape.
