Reborn Shang Zhou, angry at the sage Nuwa at the beginning

Chapter 2212

Mo Chen accepted the jade talisman, understanding that the Tian Shu Pavilion's attitude remained one of checks and balances.

They neither wanted the borderlands to be destroyed, nor allowed them to become too powerful and threaten the order of the inner region.

"Thank you, Pavilion Master." Mo Chen bowed again, already having made up his mind.

After leaving the Tian Shu Pavilion headquarters, Ye Hen said in a low voice, "Sir, the Burning Heaven Palace and the Myriad Spirits Valley probably won't let this go. What should we do next?"

A sharp glint flashed in Mo Chen's eyes: "We have achieved our initial goal. We have not only obtained the token of Tian Shu Pavilion, but also figured out the general layout of the inner domain."

"Next, we will go to the Burning Heaven Palace and the Valley of Ten Thousand Spirits to negotiate with them face to face and make them understand that the Borderlands now have the strength to contend with them. If war breaks out again, it will only result in mutual destruction."

Yehen was somewhat worried: "Going to their territory is too dangerous."

"The greater the danger, the more it demonstrates our resolve," Mo Chen said firmly. "Only by making them truly fear us can the borderlands achieve genuine peace."

After the two finished discussing,

He led the delegation toward the Burning Heaven Palace.

Meanwhile, the Burning Heaven Palace and the Myriad Spirits Valley were secretly colluding to plot a conspiracy against the Borderlands.

Yan Fentian and Qing Mingzi have not given up their ambition to annex the borderlands. They have simply changed their strategy and want to use the power of other forces in the inner region to jointly suppress the borderlands.

The delegation from the borderlands was already being watched by countless eyes on their way to the Burning Heaven Palace.

A battle for survival in the borderlands is quietly unfolding on the land of the inner region!

When Emperor Xin learned of the delegation's progress in the Human Emperor City, a resolute glint flashed in his eyes.

he knows,
Negotiation is merely a means; strength is the fundamental factor.

Only by continuously improving the strength of the borderlands can we truly gain a foothold on the stage of the Xuanhuang Continent and let the light of humanity shine on this land forever.

The main altar of the Burning Heaven Palace is located in the Blazing Valley in the southern part of the inner region. The entire valley is surrounded by eternally burning subterranean fire, and crimson magma surges in the ravines.
The air was filled with the scorching smell of sulfur. If an ordinary cultivator stepped into this place, his meridians would be burned by the invisible power of flames!

As Mo Chen led the delegation to the valley entrance, they saw two cultivators clad in crimson armor, wielding flaming spears, blocking their path with fierce, fiery eyes: "Anyone who trespasses on the Burning Heaven Palace shall die!"

"We are envoys of the Human Emperor of the Borderlands, sent by the Human Emperor to negotiate with the Palace Master of the Flame Burning Heaven. Please inform him of our presence."

Mo Chen held the Tian Shu Pavilion jade talisman, and golden human power flowed around him, forming an invisible barrier that isolated him from the scorching heat around him.

The Heavenly Dao pressure emanating from the jade talisman made the two guards' expressions stiffen, and they dared not rashly obstruct them any longer. One of them turned around and quickly stepped into the valley to report!

A moment later,
A powerful voice echoed from within the valley, carrying with it immense fiery power: "You barbarians from the frontier, do you even deserve to be greeted by this Palace Master personally? Since you've come, come in and meet your death!"

The voice has not fallen,

A wave of intense heat swept in, and the magma churned even more violently, as if it would turn the entire valley into a sea of ​​fire.

Yehen's shadow power surged, protecting the accompanying cultivators behind him. He whispered to Mo Chen, "Sir, Yan Fentian's hostility is very strong. This trip is likely to be fraught with danger."

Mo Chen remained calm, his gaze piercing through the raging flames into the valley: "The more dangerous the situation, the less we must retreat. We represent the dignity of the borderlands; if we show weakness now, it will only embolden them further."

After all,

He stepped into the valley first, his golden, humane power completely isolating him from the heat of the magma, his steps as steady as if treading on flat ground. Deep within the Fiery Valley,

A magnificent palace forged from obsidian stood tall, and atop the palace burned a colossal fiery spirit tree, its flames soaring into the sky and illuminating the entire heavens.

Yan Fentian, dressed in a crimson dragon-patterned Daoist robe, sat on the Flame Throne in the center of the palace, surrounded by nine illusory fire dragons. His aura was extremely powerful, indicating that he was at the peak of the Chaos Universe Realm.

On both sides of the hall,
Dozens of elders from the Burning Heaven Palace stood there, each with a refined aura, and the weakest among them were at least in the late stage of the Qiankun Realm.

Mo Chen led his men into the main hall, his gaze fixed on Yan Fentian. He bowed respectfully and said, "Mo Chen, the envoy from the borderlands, greets Palace Master Fentian. I have come on the orders of the Human Emperor, solely to reach an agreement on peaceful coexistence with the forces of the inner domain. I hope that Palace Master will prioritize the greater good."

"Peaceful coexistence?"

Yan Fentian slammed his fist on the table and rose abruptly, as nine fiery dragon phantoms roared and pounced into the air.

"The borderlands are an affiliated territory of the inner domain. You barbarians have seized this precious land, yet you dare to talk about peace? If you don't hand over the Emperor's Seal and the plan to destroy the borderlands today, you won't leave here alive!"

"Your Highness is mistaken."

Mo Chen remained unfazed, his humanistic power coalescing into a golden pillar of light that shielded the illusory fire dragon in front of him.
"All living beings on the Xuanhuang Continent are equal. Although the borderlands are on the periphery, they are the foundation of humanity. The Burning Heaven Palace has repeatedly invaded the borderlands and slaughtered countless cultivators and civilians. We in the borderlands have not yet pursued this blood debt, but the Palace Master is turning the tables on us. This is far too domineering."

He raised his hand and waved.
A golden light screen unfolded in the hall, clearly displaying the scene of Burning Heaven Palace cultivators burning, killing, and looting in Yongzhou. Blood flowed like rivers among the ruins, and the cries of children mingled with the roars of cultivators, a truly horrifying sight.

Upon seeing this, some of the elders of the Burning Heaven Palace inside the hall showed slight changes in their expressions, clearly indicating that they did not entirely agree with Yan Burning Heaven's aggressive actions.

Yan Fentian's expression darkened, and flames surged in his palm, instantly incinerating the light barrier.

"Nonsense! The barbarians in this desolate land are uncivilized. I, the Palace Master, am acting on behalf of Heaven to sweep away their barbarity!"

His eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Mo Chen, stop trying to win with words. Today, you either surrender or die!"

Just at this time,

A clear bird song came from outside the hall, and a figure in green slowly entered the hall. It was Qing Mingzi, the Valley Master of Wanling Valley.

He was dressed in a blue robe, holding a whisk, and surrounded by a rich scent of grass and trees, a stark contrast to the intense heat of the Burning Heaven Palace.
"Palace Master Yan, please calm down. Mr. Mo has come from afar. Why be in such a hurry to take action? Why not listen to what the borderlands have to offer first?"

Mo Chen understood immediately; the Burning Heaven Palace and the Myriad Spirits Valley had indeed colluded long ago.

He turned his gaze to Qing Mingzi: "Since Valley Master Qing has arrived, it saves me the trouble of making another trip."

"The Borderlands are willing to establish a demarcation between themselves and the various forces within the Inner Domain, agreeing to non-aggression. If the Burning Heaven Palace and the Valley of Ten Thousand Spirits cease their invasions, the Borderlands can provide a diagram of humanistic runes to assist cultivators within the Inner Domain in accelerating their comprehension of the power of humanity."

"Humanity Rune Diagram?"

A glint of greed flashed in Qingmingzi's eyes: "Mr. Mo, is what you say true? You should know that although the cultivators of the inner region have profound cultivation, they have always found it difficult to conform to the way of humanity. If you really have this diagram, it can be considered a generous gift."

Yan Fentian sneered, "How can a mere map compare to the Xuanhuang Earth Qi and the origin of humanity in the borderlands? Mo Chen, do you think you can get rid of us with this little favor?"

He suddenly raised his hand.
A flaming spear imbued with destructive power materialized, pointing directly at Mo Chen's brow.
"If you do not hand over the core secrets of the Borderlands today, you will all die!"

At the critical moment, Yehen suddenly flashed, his shadow power transforming into a sharp blade that blocked Mo Chen's path, colliding with the flaming spear.

With a loud "boom",
The power of shadow clashed violently with the power of fire, causing several cracks to appear in the floor of the hall.

Yehen groaned, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating he was seriously injured by Yan Fentian's full-force attack...
