Qin Feng stood there, his brows furrowed, lost in thought.
After much deliberation, he finally decided to stay here and wait for the opportunity to strike.
After all, whoever possesses the remaining three fragments of the Primordial Chaos Realm map will eventually appear here.
Thinking of this, Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and was about to find a place to sit down, meditate, and rest for a while to adjust his state.
However, just as he turned around, suddenly, a dark shadow appeared before him without warning, like a ghost.
The dark figure moved with incredible speed, as if it had suddenly leaped out from the depths of darkness, catching everyone off guard.
The shadowy figure seemed to be shrouded in a thick layer of darkness, making it difficult to discern its true appearance or features.
However, Qin Feng was only slightly taken aback by the sudden appearance of the dark figure.
He quickly regained his composure and recognized the dark figure—it was none other than the mysterious golden skeleton with whom he had fought fiercely a few days ago!
Qin Feng remembered that the golden skull had told him that he was actually a being formed from the fusion of many broken souls from various temples, and could be considered a ghost cultivator.
Why would this mysterious and powerful golden skull suddenly appear here?
What exactly is his purpose?
Ling Xueyan, Qing Jie, and the burly man standing nearby were also astonished when they saw the golden skull.
They all looked the uninvited guest up and down with wary eyes.
Especially when they sensed the powerful aura emanating from the golden skull, nearly half of the people couldn't help but feel a sense of apprehension.
Just then, the golden skeleton suddenly opened its empty mouth and let out a chilling, hoarse voice: "Fellow Daoist, may I have a private chat with you?"
Upon hearing these unexpected words, Qin Feng raised an eyebrow and began to examine the mysterious golden skull before him with great interest.
Its body radiated a faint golden light, and its bones were covered with strange and ancient patterns, making it particularly eye-catching.
However, when faced with the golden skull's request for a private conversation, Qin Feng refused without hesitation, saying, "Everyone here is my companion, there's nothing inconvenient about speaking frankly!"
Of course, in reality, Qin Feng never considered Qing Jie and that burly man as his own people.
The reason he answered this way was simply because he felt there was absolutely no need to find a secluded place to talk to this golden skull.
After all, with his keen intuition, he had already vaguely guessed that the topic the golden skull wanted to discuss with him was most likely related to the Primordial World.
Seeing Qin Feng's decisive rejection, the golden skull seemed to fall into deep thought and remained silent for a long time.
After a long while, he seemed to have finally made up his mind and slowly spoke again: "Alright, since you insist on talking here, I will get straight to the point."
"To be honest, I happen to have two fragments of the Primordial Chaos Realm map on hand."
"If you are willing to agree to one condition, then I will gladly hand over these two fragments of the map to you!"
At this point, the golden skull paused, then added with emphasis, "However, if you refuse my conditions, hehe... even if it means destroying these two invaluable fragments, I will absolutely not hand them over to you!"
Qin Feng stared in astonishment at the golden skull radiating a mysterious light before him, secretly amazed.
A faint golden flame flickered in the empty eye sockets of the other party, while his withered hand bones tightly gripped two incomplete fragments of the Primordial Chaos Realm map.
Qin Feng frowned slightly, and after a moment of silence, he finally couldn't suppress his curiosity and slowly asked, "What are the conditions?"
Upon hearing this, the golden skull slightly raised its head, looked directly at Qin Feng, and then replied in a slightly hoarse voice.
"It's actually very simple. Once I enter the Primordial World, if I am fortunate enough to encounter my own opportunity, I hope you can lend me a helping hand when necessary."
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng blinked, a faint smile appearing on his lips, and chuckled softly, "Hehe... Don't you think the conditions you've proposed are a bit excessive?"
He paused, then continued, "What if the opportunity you're talking about happens to be something I'm also interested in?"
"Furthermore, what if that opportunity is protected by an extremely powerful being? Do you expect me to risk everything and my life to fight for it for you?"
"Don't worry, you'll never be interested in the opportunities I'm looking for!" the golden skull said with absolute certainty.
However, faced with these confident words, Qin Feng remained expressionless, as calm as a stagnant pool, and gave no response.
Clearly, he didn't believe a word the golden skull said.
Seeing Qin Feng's cold attitude, the golden skull remained silent for a moment before adding, "Now that things have come to this, I will no longer hide anything from you."
"To tell you the truth, the opportunity I've been dreaming of is actually a method or treasure that can help me recreate a complete physical body!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng's gaze finally wavered slightly, becoming uncertain.
Although the golden skull spoke with sincerity and earnestness, how could Qin Feng, who was cautious and suspicious by nature, easily believe it?
After all, you can't see into someone's heart, especially since the person in front of you is a mysterious being of unknown origin.
However, the current situation is special, as it concerns two crucial fragments of the Primordial Chaos Realm map.
Regardless of whether Qin Feng truly believed what the golden skull said, he had no choice but to agree to its conditions for the time being.
"I agree to your conditions!" Qin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, looking directly at the golden skull. "However, I must make this clear from the start!"
"If your opportunity is protected by a powerful being, and I am no match for it, then I will absolutely not lend a hand to you!"
Without the slightest hesitation, the golden skull replied immediately, "Of course!"
Seeing that the golden skull had agreed, Qin Feng smiled and said, "Then, could you now give me the two fragments of the map you have?"
“No rush!” the golden skull said. “I’ll give it to you after I’ve collected all the remaining fragments!”
"But before that, shouldn't you swear by your inner demons that you will never break your promise to me?"
