Taking Treasures, The Difference

"It seemed this was as far as I could go." Sensing this, Yuan Yan sighed inwardly and immediately abandoned any plan to continue.

Although that restriction had not attacked him and had merely blocked him from forcibly taking the treasures within the Treasure-Distribution Rock, he could have continued trying.

But that restriction had already made Dao Ancestor Hongjun's stance clear.

Before this, he could claim ignorance and say that one could not blame the uninformed. But if he continued now, it would be knowingly committing an offense, no different from a provocation.

Even if Dao Ancestor Hongjun could not kill him because of his status, Merit, and Fortune, it was entirely possible that he might teach him a small lesson. Yuan Yan had no desire to embarrass himself before so many people!

Of course, there was an even more important reason why Yuan Yan did not continue forcibly collecting treasures: the layer of restriction on the Treasure-Distribution Rock was simply beyond his ability to break. Even if he acted again, it would be utterly useless, nothing but futile effort!

Therefore, he naturally would not make another move!

As he pondered this, Yuan Yan looked in other directions and sensed that Yuan Jie, Yuan Lun, Yuan Ling, Nuwa, and Fuxi had each already collected three batches of treasures and likewise could no longer collect anything from the Treasure-Distribution Rock.

They had also seen Yuan Yan's actions and understood that forcing the matter would be futile, so unlike Yuan Yan, they had not tried to seize the treasures from the Treasure-Distribution Rock by force.

The six of them exchanged glances. Though they did not continue acting, neither did they leave at once. Instead, they moved to one side, discussing their respective gains while waiting for the other powerful figures to arrive.
