It was not that these Mighty Figures looked down upon the Human race; rather, they did not even consider the Human race worthy of their attention.
They had expected the emergence of this treasure to trigger a fierce struggle, but now, not a single one of these Mighty Figures made a move. It could be said that not one of them wanted this Kongtong Seal. In the eyes of these Quasi-Saint Mighty Figures, the Kongtong Seal was not a supreme treasure, but a shackle. If they were to be tethered to the Human race, they would find themselves in a situation where they could not even cry for help. They would not be foolish enough to take on the role of a nanny for the Human race for the sake of a treasure that looked impressive but served no practical purpose.
Even Taiqing watched the Kongtong Seal with a sense of speechlessness, sighing to himself that it was nothing more than a showpiece. Yuanshi glanced at Duke of the East; he had initially hoped to help the others obtain this treasure so he might trade it for instruction in Daoist methods, but he abandoned the thought. Whoever wanted to take the Kongtong Seal could have it! He, Yuanshi, certainly would not. He did not want to be weighed down by the Human race. Reaching the status of a Sage was already difficult enough; if he were to be burdened by them, he feared his chances of success would be extinguished.
