Chapter 15
Heavenly Dao Merit was exceedingly difficult to acquire!
The Merit Spiritual Treasures between heaven and earth were well-known and countable!
Yet why—
Did this fellow Fuguang possess so many Merit Spiritual Treasures?
Not to mention those obscure Daluo Golden Immortals.
Even the aloof Pangu Three Pure Ones and the haughty Nuwa fell somewhat silent.
To say the least—
The mere fact that Fuguang could effortlessly wield this pile of Merit Spiritual Treasures was proof enough of his formidable strength.
A powerhouse.
Moreover, an absolute powerhouse who had rendered great service to heaven and earth!
Such an opponent—
Could only be described as extremely thorny!
Fight?
Victory was not guaranteed.
And even if one won—
Facing a powerhouse with vast Heavenly Dao Merit would definitely bring no good end.
Kill him?
That would be sheer courted suicide.
The silent attitude of the crowd at this moment was entirely within Fuguang's expectations.
However,
his actions had not yet stopped—
Hum!
Without a word, Fuguang shifted his thoughts, and a massive wheel of Heavenly Dao Merit materialized around him, enshrouding his entire person within its radiance.
Seeing the Heavenly Dao Merit golden wheel envelop Fuguang, everyone present was completely dumbfounded.
Ignoring their bewilderment,
Fuguang's face retained its genial smile:
"That being the case, this poor Daoist is fully prepared!"
"I hope that when we rely on our respective means shortly, fellow daoists will yield to this poor Daoist a little."
"After all, this poor Daoist—"
"Prefers reasoning with people!"
Hearing this,
the expressions of the gathered Daluo Golden Immortals involuntarily twitched!
He had Merit Spiritual Treasures.
He had sufficient strength.
And he had a wheel of Heavenly Dao Merit so damn huge!
They would have to be out of their minds to make a move against Fuguang—
Whether they could win was debatable, and even if they won, there would be no good fruit to eat!
Such a massive wheel of Heavenly Dao Merit was practically shouting directly to heaven and earth: *I am the darling most favored by the Heavenly Dao.*
In the presence of such an existence, unless there was an irreconcilable blood feud, just standing there was enough.
They had better stay far away!
Lest they inadvertently provoke him, find their own Qi Fortune lacking, and meet with misfortune.
Everyone tacitly excluded Fuguang from their targets.
Anyway, there were seven spiritual treasures in total—
And this Fuguang fellow looked like an honest, steady man.
He would surely only take the single spiritual treasure fated to him and would certainly not take any extra!
Targeting him—
Was not a profitable trade.
Just as everyone's thoughts were fluctuating—
Hum!
On the innate gourd vine along the ridge, the six top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure-grade gourd treasures simultaneously radiated different immortal lights, their auras dense and misty, clearly indicating they had completely matured.
The spiritual treasures had manifested.
The moment they saw this, everyone instantly steadied their minds, and no one made the first move to seize the treasures!
Fuguang was no exception—
Although he had made ample preparations, his cautious personality made him prefer striking from the shado—cough, cough, preferred arriving late to arrive first!
Spiritual treasures possessed spirits.
With no one making a move to contend for them, the six spiritual gourds falling from the gourd vine turned into streaks of light, flying respectively toward the Pangu Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Hongyun, and finally Fuguang.
In the blink of an eye, the six individuals each obtained a spiritual gourd.
At the same time,
the final upper-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure gourd seemed to know it was destined never to fully mature.
Thus, it directly detached itself from the gourd vine, transformed into a stream of light, and came toward Fuguang, landing in his hand.
"Yo—"
Looking at the upper-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure-grade precious gourd in his palm,
Fuguang wore a look of complete satisfaction:
"There's actually an extra one. It seems my luck is truly not bad!"
At the same time,
Fuguang noticed that the other Daluo Golden Immortals who had failed to obtain a treasure were all glaring at him with burning gazes.
Among those present whose spiritual treasures had voluntarily recognized their master—
Fuguang was the only one who had obtained two!
It was truly enough to make people's eyes turn red.
His golden pupils flickering,
Fuguang looked toward the gathered Daluo Golden Immortals:
"The spiritual treasures have chosen their masters automatically, and this contention for fortuitous encounters should naturally end here!"
"Fellow daoists staring at this poor Daoist couldn't possibly harbor any unfriendly thoughts, right?"
The Merit Spiritual Treasures floated around his body, and the soft light emitted by the Heavenly Dao Merit golden wheel grew even brighter.
Fuguang smiled warmly as he looked at the assembly of Daluo Golden Immortals—
Truth be told.
If they really wanted to fight—
He might not be unable to dispatch the True Spirits of all these Daluo Golden Immortals to the Great Dao True Spirit Sea before accumulating heavy Karmic Retribution!
Besides, each of these Daluo Golden Immortals carried no small amount of Karmic Retribution and sin upon themselves!
Killing them—
Not only would it not burden him with Karmic Retribution, but it might even bring him a reward of merit!
Of course,
such merit would not be Heavenly Dao Merit.
Rather, it would be something akin to underworld virtue.
Regardless of what kind of virtue was obtained, as long as it was useful, that was enough.
At this thought,
a trace of eagerness stirred within Fuguang's eyes.
As the saying goes, wielding a sharp weapon inspires a murderous intent.
Ever since his transformation and birth into the world, he had always lived cautiously and had never crossed hands with powerhouses of the same level.
If he could fight a battle with a group of Daluo Golden Immortals today, it wouldn't be entirely out of the question.
He could exercise patience toward true powerhouses, but against these motley troops and minor minions weighed down with killing karma, he could unleash heavy blows with absolute confidence!
Looking at Fuguang's glaring Merit Spiritual Treasures and that blinding wheel of Heavenly Dao Merit,
the Daluo Golden Immortals who had harbored certain ideas involuntarily took a step back.
Soon,
hum—
Knowing they had missed their chance at the fortuitous encounter and had no way to obtain anything further, several Daluo Golden Immortals transformed into light and departed without a word.
With the first person came the second.
Before long,
the Daluo Golden Immortals who had failed to acquire spiritual treasures left one after another.
Following that,
the silent Pangu Three Pure Ones also aloofly transformed into Three Paths of clear light and left the area.
"Two fellow daoists, this poor Daoist will take his leave as well."
With a satisfied smile on his face after harvesting the Nine-Nine Scattering Soul Red Gourd, Hongyun cupped his fists in a salute toward Fuguang and Nuwa, then directly departed.
In this place—
In the blink of an eye, only Fuguang and Nuwa remained.
