Baoyue Tathagata and Four Absolutes Daoist stared at the Dao Seal, which seemed both to suppress the Chaos Sea and to bear it upon its back. Neither spoke.
"Sorry for the offense," Meng Chuan said, dispersing the Dao Seal.
That was enough to settle the contest.
Ah, I wanted to watch a little longer.
Baoyue Tathagata sighed. "Fellow Daoist, your skill surpasses ours. This Chaos Dao Treasure is yours."
Four Absolutes Daoist said nothing. He put away his Life-Bound Sword, making his position clear.
Their contest of skill and Dao had gone far enough. It was plain who was stronger.
If they kept fighting, it would inevitably turn into an all-out battle.
They were all Supreme Ones, unscathed by ten thousand tribulations. Their word was their bond, and having agreed on the rules beforehand, they would abide by them.
They all had reputations to uphold. Out in the world, a man's word was everything.
Of course, the main reason was that one Chaos Dao Treasure was not worth three Supreme Ones fighting to the death.
Meng Chuan did not refuse. He took the springhead.
It was rather strange. He had come to watch a spectacle and ended up with a Treasure.
The springhead itself was not what mattered most. What mattered was what lay inside it.
It was a Nine-Colored Divine Stone.
A Treasure of this caliber had many uses. It could be made into an artifact, used as medicine, or serve as a cultivation resource.
Even the springhead had endless wondrous uses.
Things generally did not exist within the Chaos Sea. When one did come into being, its birth could shake heaven and earth.
At times, a Treasure like this was worth more than a mighty world.
