Chapter 283: News of the Golden Essence Dao Fruit!
Upon acquiring the Golden Essence Dao Fruit, Guangchengzi eagerly retreated to his cave for seclusion. Though he understood that the chances of advancing to sainthood were slim, there was still a glimmer of hope, and whether he could seize it remained uncertain. If luck were truly on his side, he might ascend to sainthood despite the slight chance; conversely, if his luck faltered, he was almost certain to fail in his breakthrough.
Nevertheless, Guangchengzi felt deeply content. Without this gift from Yuanshi Tianzun, he wouldn't have even glimpsed the possibility of sainthood. Though the odds were slim, the prospect was still there, unlike other peak Quasi-Saints who saw no such path.
Moreover, Yuanshi Tianzun had long been prepared for the possibility of failure. Should Guangchengzi not achieve sainthood, it would be acceptable. However, if he succeeded, it would indeed be worthy of praise from Yuanshi Tianzun himself.
Though Guangchengzi was not weak and had lingered at the peak of the Quasi-Saint stage for a considerable time, accumulating sufficient strength, the gap between a Saint and a peak Quasi-Saint was vast. In terms of comprehension of the Heavenly Dao and self-exploration, Saints far surpassed Quasi-Saints. Guangchengzi recognized his own limitations but remained determined not to waste this opportunity that had appeared before him.
He harbored a faint hope because Laozi, a peer of his, had managed to attain sainthood. Thus, he too believed he stood a chance. Although they hadn't taken the same elixirs, if he could grasp this sliver of opportunity, sainthood might be within reach.
However, after Yuanshi Tianzun had withdrawn the Dao Fruit, he said nothing further, sparking curiosity among those powerful beings observing the livestream. They were eager to know how Yuanshi Tianzun would handle the Golden Essence Dao Fruit.
[Sun Wukong: Yuanshi Tianzun, are you planning to keep this item for yourself or set it aside?]
[Yuanshi Tianzun: I don't intend to use it for myself. While treasures that enhance a Saint's power are rare, they are far more abundant than chances to achieve sainthood. After all, a Saint can cultivate their power over time, but a missed chance at rebirth never returns!]
Upon hearing this, many powerful beings became restless. If Yuanshi Tianzun wasn't keeping it, there was a chance they could obtain it from him. For other powerhouses, especially the peak Quasi-Saints, this was an extraordinary opportunity.
Yet it wasn't something easily achievable. As a Saint, why would Yuanshi Tianzun give away such a valuable treasure as the Golden Essence Dao Fruit?
Still, without trying, how could anyone know the outcome? Those peak Quasi-Saints would not easily forgo this chance.
[Ancestor Minghe: I'm curious about that too. If you're not keeping it for yourself, why don't we make a trade? Whatever you need, I'll do my utmost to meet your requirements!]
Ancestor Minghe, also a peak Quasi-Saint, had long attempted to break through to sainthood to no avail. He knew that without external assistance, achieving sainthood would be difficult. But opportunities to become a Saint were exceedingly rare; even if a Saint were reborn and tried again, success wasn't guaranteed. Thus, Minghe calmed his mind.
Among the powerful beings in the primordial world, only a few Saints could best him. Although others might match him, his unique abilities deterred anyone from provoking him.
Being one of the oldest and most powerful peak Quasi-Saints in the primordial world, with far more extensive experience and resources than the likes of Laozi and Guangchengzi, Ancestor Minghe now saw a glimmer of hope. The opportunity in Laozi's possession had been given to his disciple, Laozi, who had since become a Saint. Now, Yuanshi Tianzun held a lesser but still precious chance of sainthood. Losing this opportunity would make it incredibly difficult for Ancestor Minghe to encounter another, hence his willingness to trade with Yuanshi Tianzun for it.
Although the gap between Quasi-Saints and Saints was vast, Minghe was unique, possessing numerous treasures across various domains, rivaling some Saints. These were tokens of his strength, safeguarded over eons.
For the Golden Essence Dao Fruit, Minghe was prepared to sacrifice significantly, understanding its unparalleled value and the rare chance of sainthood it offered. For a peak Quasi-Saint, it would be impossible to exchange this treasure for a mere few innate spiritual artifacts.
Thus, Minghe was willing to part with his vast trove of treasures in hopes of securing this opportunity. For him, it was a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
Though a ten percent probability may seem small to others, Minghe's confidence was unique. His deep accumulation, in every regard, surpassed those Quasi-Saints who had previously attained sainthood. News of Laozi's sainthood only bolstered Minghe's conviction, fueling his readiness to trade his treasures.
Apart from him, another powerful figure from the Demon Race, Emperor Jun, also greatly desired the Golden Essence Dao Fruit. Though recently resurrected and active for only a few decades, he retained his former strength, remaining an immensely formidable being.
When he learned the Dao Fruit was in Yuanshi Tianzun's possession and that it would not be used personally, Emperor Jun's heart surged with excitement. He believed this was his opportunity. Missing it would mean a slim chance of encountering another.
His thoughts mirrored Ancestor Minghe's. Both had missed out on the treasures scattered across the primordial world. But if they let this slip, future opportunities would only become scarcer.
Moreover, as the strongest of the Demon Race, Emperor Jun felt uniquely qualified to contend for the Dao Fruit. Achieving sainthood was the key to revitalizing the declining Demon Race. While restoring their ancient glory was perhaps impossible, he could at least secure a better future for his people.
