Chapter 938: Chapter 19: Oath Secret Treasure (2)

“The Oath Secret Treasure will erase the fact that you have cultivated before, but I will retrieve it now.”

The Four Seasons Seal emitted a harmonious glow, falling upon Xing Yuan.

First, it was to resist the backlash of the Starry Sky Rules time.

The backlash from the Starry Sky Rules was intense, but with the support of Wang Sheng’s power, the Four Seasons Seal handled it with ease.

Next was retrieving the erased time.

The Four Seasons Seal spun, revealing Xing Yuan’s life. It didn’t take long for the Four Seasons Seal to find the crucial node.

The period of time that had been hidden away.

“Four Seasons Seal, rotate.”

As the Four Seasons Seal rotated, the hidden time slowly emerged, reappearing on Xing Yuan.

And Xing Yuan’s declining strength gradually recovered.

With the return of his strength, the backlash from the Starry Sky Rules naturally disappeared.

Feeling his current state, Xing Yuan was somewhat confused: “Is it resolved?”

The matter he considered a major crisis was easily solved.

As if it wasn’t worth mentioning at all.

After coming to his senses, he looked at Wang Sheng and said seriously: “True Saint, are you really a Saint Emperor of the Twelfth Realm, and not a higher existence?”

No one in the Twelfth Realm can do this so easily.

In comparison, he, in the Twelfth Realm, seemed like a waste.

Wang Sheng retracted the Four Seasons Seal and didn’t respond to Xing Yuan’s words.

If it were other methods, he might have to work harder, but when it comes to manipulating time and space, it’s extremely simple for him.

“Alright, your problem is solved. Go back. Your first task is to protect the Source Star; don’t let any creature threaten its safety.”

Seeing Wang Sheng not responding, Xing Yuan wisely replied with respect: “Yes, True Saint, even if I have to die, I will not let the Source Star be threatened.”

With that said, he left on his own.

After he left, Wang Sheng looked at the Four Seasons Seal.

“Ultimately, it’s still somewhat lacking!”

Just now, although there was no direct confrontation, bringing back Xing Yuan’s erased time consumed a lot of his power.

Merely this aspect highlights a significant gap between the Four Seasons Seal and that Oath Secret Treasure.

Nevertheless, Wang Sheng wasn’t disappointed.

After all, the Four Seasons Seal has only been refined for a few hundred years, so it’s normal not to compare.

Just now, its performance was already quite good!

Of course, precisely because of this, his interest in the Oath Secret Treasure increased.

“Seems like in the actions in the Old Land, another matter needs to be added… Now, within the Star Abyss Alliance, things might not be calm. I wonder if there’s an opportunity?”

Wang Sheng’s consciousness once again focused on his incarnation.

The incarnation has been guarding the Star Abyss Great World for several years.

Waiting for someone to show up.

“I hope it’s Hong Yun…”

He had learned from Xing Yuan that the Oath Secret Treasure was indeed taken out by Hong Yun.

Although it’s likely something from the Shattered Star Sacred Land, what if it’s still with Hong Yun?

Meanwhile, the alliance was indeed not tranquil.

Through special means of investigation, Hong Yun confirmed that Xing Yuan was still alive and in not much different state.

But Xing Yuan had broken his oath.

This implies the most unlikely event they considered actually happened.

His heart was somewhat gloomy.

After pondering, he opened his eyes and looked at the other thirteen Saint Emperors, and with a disappointed tone said: “Everyone, as much as I hate to admit it, Xing Yuan has indeed betrayed us, and he is still alive.”

Alive, yet not opening the passage as promised.

Equivalent to betrayal.

“He truly betrayed us, how did he withstand the backlash?”

“Damn it, he shouldn’t have been helped.”

With Xing Yuan’s power alone, he couldn’t open the passage.

He went to the Newborn Land, and they contributed, only to be backstabbed.

“What do we do next, Hong Yun?”

As the organizer, in such situations, they would instinctively ask him.

But Hong Yun himself had no solutions, only saying: “Next, either take the risk of following Xing Yuan’s path, or just wait.”

The Saint Emperors present all wore gloomy expressions.

Xing Yuan took hundreds of years to arrive, encountering dangers along the way.

Do they need to spend hundreds of years as well?

But the future won’t be the same, and hundreds of years later, a safe and convenient passage will automatically open.

Essentially, they almost have only one choice moving forward.

“Haha, we can only wait, and we have no way of dealing with him.”

“Just hope that in hundreds of years, Xing Yuan doesn’t break through to the Thirteenth Realm.”

“Breaking through to the Thirteenth Realm in hundreds of years is impossible, but even if he becomes the master of a top force, we still can’t do anything about him… unfortunately, hundreds of years makes this possible.”

In the end, they all fell silent.

No matter how angry they were inside, they couldn’t change the final outcome.

The gathering ended without any conclusion.

However, things were not over.

Unable to deal with Xing Yuan personally, can they not deal with his forces?

Even if it seems that Xing Yuan doesn’t care much about the Star Abyss Great World, otherwise he wouldn’t have broken the oath, it’s enough to vent their anger.

As soon as it ended, a Saint Emperor went to the Star Abyss Great World.

With Xing Yuan breaking the oath, their original oath to take care of Xing Yuan was naturally lifted.

Now, it’s time to vent.

At the same time, Hong Yun entered the Shattered Star Sacred Land again and met the Yuanhua Saint Emperor.

“Holy Master… Over at Xing Yuan’s side, there seems to be a means to resist the oath, the passage hasn’t been opened, and our plan failed, I’m extremely sorry.”

“I already know, it’s not your fault, even I didn’t expect Xing Yuan could defy the Oath Ring’s constraints and not die, this isn’t something ordinary people can do, we underestimated Xing Yuan and trusted the Oath Ring too much.” Yuanhua didn’t blame Xing Yuan; even he hadn’t anticipated it.

“Holy Master, what should we do next? Do we really have to wait for the passage to open?”

Yuanhua shook his head: “No, since Xing Yuan can withstand the repercussions of the Oath Ring, it shows he’s no simple character. Hundreds of years isn’t long, but enough for many things to happen…”

For someone at his level, hundreds of years are negligible.

But who knows what the situation in the Newborn Land is.

It is true that, as a previous Saint Emperor said, Xing Yuan doesn’t need to reach the Thirteenth Realm, just reaching Yuanhua’s level would render all their plans futile.

“In that case, let’s prepare the second plan. Although Xing Yuan broke the oath, he has brought some things…”

Hong Yun’s heart trembled.

Although the Shattered Star Sacred Land didn’t believe their plan would fail, they had indeed prepared a backup.

This backup is far from peaceful and is named — ‘Hunt the Saint Emperor.’

As the name of the plan suggests.

The second plan requires killing a Saint Emperor to implement, and most crucially, not just one.

“Excluding those who died naturally, the last Saint Emperor killed was about 4.3 million years ago…”

Only the top forces have the ability to kill a Saint Emperor.

Once a Saint Emperor dies abnormally, the Old Land might become restless.

But this wasn’t something he could interfere with.

As someone from a top force, he was well aware of the strength of those at the level of a top leader.

Facing the Holy Master’s plan, he could only execute it.

“Holy Master, should we call back everyone?”

Yuanhua nodded: “Go, gather all Saint Emperors who are out.”

“Yes!”

Hong Yun went to gather forces, preparing for a groundbreaking action.

However, he still kept part of his attention on the Star Abyss Great World.

“Xing Yuan, since you chose to betray, be ready to pay the price. Without my intervention, someone will destroy the Star Abyss Great World.”

As the organizer, he was well aware that someone would surely destroy the Star Abyss Great World out of spite.

And he was more than happy to see it happen.

Not just Hong Yun.

Anyone within the alliance was watching the Star Abyss Great World.

In the end, they spotted a familiar face.

“As expected of him, the Master of the Deep Sea, who calls himself Deep Sea, is actually very petty.”

“Looks like the Star Abyss will become a nation of swamp…”
