"Heh. I'd like to see who dares leave."
Though Lin Tian's words were light, they struck everyone like a heavy hammer, making their hearts skip a beat. No one dared move recklessly.
"You're all truly shameless, ganging up on just a few of them!"
Nuwa was furious and immediately shouted at the crowd.
"Little sister..."
Fuxi hurriedly pulled Nuwa back. With the Dao Venerable here, they only needed to follow his arrangements.
The crowd was left awkwardly speechless after being rebuked.
Nuwa snorted coldly, paying them no further mind.
Lin Tian looked at the Spiritual Treasure glowing with seven-colored light in the distance and nodded.
"So it was this. Judging by the timing, it was indeed time for it to emerge."
That was right—it was the Innate Gourd Vine.
Looking at the seven differently colored gourds growing beneath the vine, Lin Tian smiled in satisfaction.
"What a pity. If its origin had not been damaged, the grade of these gourds would have been even higher."
He felt a trace of regret, but then an idea suddenly came to mind.
Thus, he said to everyone, "I want this Spiritual Treasure!"
Everyone was clearly startled upon hearing Lin Tian's words.
Taiyi, however, was unwilling to accept it and directly questioned Lin Tian. "Dao Venerable, Spiritual Treasures belong to those fated for them. You intend to take them all with just one word. Isn't that unreasonable?"
Di Jun's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly stopped Taiyi and quickly apologized to Lin Tian. "Dao Venerable, my second brother does not understand proper etiquette. Please forgive him!"
At the same time, he signaled Taiyi with his eyes, telling him not to act rashly.
The Dao Venerable was on the same level as the Dao Ancestor. They were no match for him at all.
"Big Brother..."
Taiyi
