Chapter 133: Don’t Take the Enlightenment Tea Leaves, Take These Miscellaneous Seedlings
Gu Xi was somewhat hesitant. If he were to pick it up now, he would have a way to escape unscathed. However, it was very likely that the azure dragon would completely awaken. In fact, the others might even understand the mystery behind this.
As such, it was too eye-catching. However, if he were to stop now, this rare treasure might be even more precious than the Enlightenment Tea. He was unwilling to give it up just like that.
Just as Gu Xi was hesitating, a white glow spread from his chest. At first, he did not notice it, but as the heat spread from his chest, he lowered his head to take a look.
Was this not the mysterious fragment he had obtained at the bottom of the lake earlier? At this moment, not only was it emitting a weak white glow, it was even a little hot.
When the others saw Gu Xi standing rooted to the ground, they thought that Gu Xi had been scared silly by the powerful attack just now.
“This kid can’t be a fool, right? If he doesn’t want the Enlightenment tea leaves, what’s the use of these little saplings?”
Many people thought that this was some kind of treasure. They sent their spiritual senses over, but there was no spiritual energy fluctuation. Even the life force was very weak, as if it was about to wither.
“This should be the overflowing spiritual energy of the Enlightenment Tea leaves when it was born, which was absorbed by the weeds nearby, so it grew out.”
“Although it’s grown next to the Divine Tree, it’s not much different from the weeds by the roadside. In fact, it even takes up space.”
“Logically speaking, the thing next to the divine item should have some spiritual energy. This thing probably doesn’t have any aptitude, which is why it’s like this.”
The major forces who had originally wanted to make a move also stopped thinking and revealed mocking expressions on their faces.
In their eyes, Gu Xi had taken such a huge risk and even risked his life for the sake of those weeds. It was truly inconceivable.
No matter how much they probed, those weeds were just weeds. Before they could think about it carefully, the Enlightenment Tea leaves that were hanging on the tree branches turned yellow once again. This meant that there was not much time left. Many people swarmed forward once again.
“Your Ethereal Illusion Mansion already has several pieces of the Enlightenment Tea leaves. Why are you still so greedy?!”
“Heh, put on the face of a saint. Don’t think that everyone doesn’t know what your Pure Lotus Sect is thinking.”
“Three pieces of the Enlightenment Tea leaves should be enough for your Zhan Clan, right? You should at least leave some opportunities for others.”
“That’s a nice way of putting it. Then, you should donate your Enlightenment Tea leaves.”
How could anyone complain about having too many Enlightenment Tea leaves? Once again, these superpowers joined the fray. On the other hand, Gu Xi stood by the side with a few small saplings in his hands. When his gaze landed on the azure dragon’s illusory figure, it was truly surprising. At this moment, it had already closed his eyes.
He had clearly not done anything just now.
Gu Xi looked at the shard that no longer emitted light and regained his previous calmness. The temperature also dropped, as if nothing had happened. A guess surfaced in his heart.
Could it be that it was because of this shard that the azure dragon did not launch an attack?
After obtaining these small saplings, the azure dragon’s shadow slowly dissipated into the world. However, the crowd that was caught in the chaotic battle did not notice this strange scene.
Quite a number of people came over to observe the small saplings. They were really just ordinary random saplings by the roadside and immediately lost interest.
Although they grew next to the Divine Tree, there were so many people present that no one would misjudge them. Indeed, they did not have any spiritual energy fluctuation or power. They were just very ordinary things.
“Is there something wrong with this person’s head? He left the Enlightenment Tea leaves unpicked and went for the weeds instead.”
“It’s also possible that he knows that his strength is not enough, so he decided to settle for the second-best.”
“But this thing is useless.”
Some people even deliberately distanced themselves from Gu Xi, looking at him as if he was a fool. No one wanted to snatch the few saplings.
If they had the time, they might as well focus on the remaining Enlightenment Tea leaves. Maybe they could even pick up a few leaves.
Therefore, Gu Xi did not have any obstacles and easily obtained a few saplings. At the same time, a system notification sounded in his mind.
[Ding! The System has detected the Chaos Enlightenment Tree.]
[Detected flaws 12,530, potential value 965,985, do you wish to extract it?]
Gu Xi was shocked and subconsciously clenched the sapling in his hand. However, his expression did not change as he looked at the green leaves that everyone was fighting over.
No wonder when everyone was fighting over the Enlightenment Tea leaves earlier, the azure dragon phantom did not have any reaction. It turned out that the real treasure was these few Enlightenment Trees.
It was likely that the Divine Tree just now was not the Enlightenment Tea tree’s actual body, or perhaps it had used some kind of special method to create a false impression.
Compared to the Enlightenment Tea leaves, the Enlightenment Tea tree was naturally more precious. With it, the Enlightenment Tea could be said to be inexhaustible. Now, these trees had all fallen into Gu Xi’s hands.
Who would have thought that such an inconspicuous miscellaneous sapling beside the Divine Tree would actually be the Enlightenment Tea tree’s actual body! This time, it could be said that he had picked up a huge treasure.
Gu Xi could not help but sigh. Everyone had been deceived. If he did not have the System in his hands, he would not have known that the real treasure was beside him.
“Who exactly is the master of this Primal Chaos Secret Realm? It’s really too amazing.”
