Chapter 284: Guangchengzi's Failed Attempt!

[Emperor Jun: I'm willing to exchange anything that a Saint desires in return. This opportunity to attain sainthood is priceless—whatever a Saint desires, they may simply ask for it and take it!]

Ancestor Minghe initially believed that if he were ruthless enough, he would have a good chance of negotiating with Yuanshi Tianzun for it, especially since Yuanshi himself stated he wasn't planning to use it. In Yuanshi's hands, this treasure was almost wasted. It would only be useful in the hands of top Quasi-Saints striving to break through to sainthood.

However, Emperor Jun's sudden appearance was like an unexpected rival. It caught Minghe off guard, as Jun was the only one capable of truly competing with him for the item. No other Quasi-Saints of similar strength had the resources or confidence to go toe-to-toe with him.

Emperor Jun felt he had a fair chance, knowing that Minghe's reputation across the Primordial World was far from favorable—even Saints didn't particularly like him. Furthermore, if Minghe actually advanced to sainthood, it could potentially destabilize the Primordial World once again.

But both Emperor Jun and the other top Quasi-Saints were indulging in wishful thinking at this moment, unaware that Yuanshi Tianzun no longer possessed the item they desired. No one imagined that Yuanshi, having decided not to use it, had already handed the Golden Essence Dao Fruit over to his disciple.

Had they known, they wouldn't be here humbling themselves for it. These dignified and powerful Quasi-Saints, each renowned in the Three Realms, now appeared almost servile before a Saint.

For figures as proud as they were, it was humiliating to beg—even to a Saint. But at this moment, the opportunity for sainthood that Yuanshi Tianzun held forced them to set aside their dignity.

It was a necessary choice; obtaining the Golden Essence Dao Fruit from Yuanshi Tianzun was exceedingly difficult.

[Emperor Jun: I ask Yuanshi Tianzun to consider this carefully!]

After both of them had spoken, Yuanshi did not immediately respond, leading others in the livestream to start discussing.

[Sun Wukong: This item is extremely rare. You lot aren't even close to him—wouldn't it be strange if he actually agreed?]

[Xuanyuan: We Three Sovereigns desire this item as well, but everyone knows a treasure of such value is not something Yuanshi Tianzun would likely part with, even if it remains in his treasure trove.]

[Taiyi Zhenren: Only those with suitable strength truly need this item. Whether a Saint or a top Quasi-Saint, it's another matter if they can actually obtain it from Yuanshi Tianzun.]

While Yuanshi Tianzun had chosen not to use it himself, that didn't mean other Saints wouldn't want it. Even if no one in the room openly expressed interest, that might not hold true in private. The Saints knew each other well and frequently communicated. Thus, aside from top Quasi-Saints, Saints themselves also had an interest in enhancing their power.

However, in Yuanshi Tianzun's view, those Quasi-Saints who approached him were hardly worth considering. Although powerful, even if they did manage to break through to sainthood, there was no guarantee how they would act afterward.

Shortly after the reward appeared in Yuanshi Tianzun's possession, he was approached by Laozi. Having lost a tenth of his power due to the Golden List, Laozi's reward had been given to his disciple. Although his disciple, the Grandmaster Xuandu, had attained sainthood, it hadn't improved Laozi's own strength.

Laozi also wanted to restore his power; a tenth was no small amount. But his wisdom told him it was impossible to recover that much strength in a short time. Seeing Yuanshi obtain the Golden Essence Dao Fruit, Laozi immediately thought of claiming it. With this treasure, his power recovery would be expedited. If he could fully absorb it, his strength would be fully restored.

He approached Yuanshi with genuine intentions and many valuable treasures to trade. However, Yuanshi outright refused, bluntly stating he had already entrusted the Golden Essence Dao Fruit to his disciple, Guangchengzi, for a breakthrough attempt.

Laozi was taken aback by Yuanshi Tianzun's decisiveness. He had entrusted such a precious treasure to his disciple without regard for his own strength, solely to cultivate a Saint disciple.

Both Yuanshi and Laozi shared a similar mindset—entrusting Golden List rewards to their disciples. Whether the outcome would be the same remained uncertain.

If even Laozi, a Saint, couldn't secure the treasure, other top Quasi-Saints—who weren't on Yuanshi's level—had no chance at all of persuading him to exchange such a precious item with them.

[Erlang Shen: Everyone knows that opportunities for sainthood are few and far between. Nobody is willing to give up without trying, even if the chances are slim. Only after giving it their all can they truly accept letting go!]

[Guanyin Bodhisattva: Ultimately, it all depends on Yuanshi Tianzun!]

The Buddhist Saints and Quasi-Saints didn't dare to interfere, knowing their relationship with Yuanshi was strained and that this treasure was destined to remain beyond their grasp.

But no matter the circumstances, it was evident that the chances of acquiring the Golden Essence Dao Fruit were minuscule for anyone involved.

[Ancestor Minghe: Yuanshi Tianzun, please give us an answer. If you refuse, we will not persist. But if you agree, just tell us what treasures you want in exchange!]

Having prepared thoroughly, Ancestor Minghe wasn't afraid of Yuanshi's potential high demands; he only feared silence, that all his efforts might be wasted.

Although he had gathered a significant number of treasures, they were irrelevant if Yuanshi refused to speak, leaving Minghe in endless frustration and unrest. Others also found it odd that Yuanshi had yet to respond. Could it be that he simply had no intention of entertaining these top Quasi-Saints? Such behavior was uncharacteristic of him.

Just as the others were still pondering, Yuanshi Tianzun finally spoke.

[Yuanshi Tianzun: The Golden Essence Dao Fruit is no longer in my hands. Seeking me any further will be fruitless!]
