Seeing that the other Saints had spoken, even though Yuanshi Tianzun deeply desired to choose this spell, he had to weigh the potential consequences carefully.
In truth, he was very eager to acquire the Myriad Domain Puppet Art. If he could fully unleash its potential, the benefits would be imnse.
There were only a handful of Saints in the entire Primordial World. If he could control one or two of them, then aside from Ancestor Hongjun and Ye Tian, who else could rival him?
With such power, he could roam freely across the Primordial World, gathering all the treasures that could enhance his strength.
However, he quickly realized that this was unlikely. Ancestor Hongjun had rged with the Heavenly Dao, aning his will was the will of the Heavenly Dao itself. Since this technique violated the natural order, Hongjun would never allow him to master it.
Moreover, judging from the reactions of the other Saints, if he chose this technique, he would undoubtedly be restricted.
After careful consideration, Yuanshi Tianzun decided it was best to abandon this option—but only if the second reward was good enough to enhance his strength. Otherwise, he wouldn't just let this opportunity slip away.
At this mont, the second reward beca crucial. If it was valuable enough, it would make giving up the first reward much easier.
Before long, the second reward was revealed, and everyone eagerly awaited its contents.
[35th Place on the Technique List Reward: Earthfla Fruit Tree]
[The Earthfla Fruit Tree blooms once every hundred thousand years, bears fruit every hundred thousand years, and takes another hundred thousand years for the fruit to ripen. The fruit can randomly enhance the physical body, magical power, or primordial spirit, and any Saint-level being can benefit from it!]
This type of reward was extrely rare. Across the three rankings, it was the first ti such an item had appeared.
The Primordial World was filled with countless spiritual plants, many of which were classified as heavenly treasures. Among the most renowned were Zhen Yuanzi's Ginseng Fruit Tree and the Peach Tree in the Heavenly Palace.
Both required extensive ti to mature, but once they did, they provided incredible effects—whether it was extending lifespan or increasing strength, they were highly sought after.
It could be said that any powerful figure in the Primordial World would love such treasures.
And compared to these trees, the Earthfla Fruit Tree was vastly superior. The Ginseng Fruit Tree and Peach Tree provided no benefits to Saints, whereas the Earthfla Fruit Tree could enhance them. This alone demonstrated its imnse value.
The most remarkable aspect of the Earthfla Fruit Tree was that it could boost the body, primordial spirit, and magical power alike. However, which attribute the fruit enhanced depended entirely on luck.
For Yuanshi Tianzun, this was an excellent reward—it could steadily strengthen him over ti. However, like the reward obtained by Nuwa, it required patience.
The tree's ripening period was longer than other spiritual trees, aning that acquiring its fruit would take even more ti.
This was the unavoidable downside of such treasures. But if one lacked the patience to wait, they might as well not choose it at all.
[Sun Wukong: Earthfla Fruit Tree! I wonder what the fruit looks like? Is it tasty or not?]
[Erlang Shen: As expected of a monkey, still thinking about food. Seems like you're quite comfortable being sealed under the Five Elents Mountain. With such an invaluable treasure, all you can think of is eating?]
[Sun Wukong: None of your business! If the Five Elents Mountain is so comfortable, why don't you co try it yourself?]
[Ancestor Minghe: Worried that the second reward might be too weak? Seems like that concern was unnecessary. The Earthfla Fruit Tree and the Myriad Domain Puppet Art are completely different, but it still provides substantial power! ]
[Tathagata Buddha: The key is that the Earthfla Fruit Tree can be shared with many. Since its fruit production isn't capped, as long as one waits long enough, it can keep providing benefits.]
[Haotian Jade Emperor: This choice should be easy now. No matter how strong the Myriad Domain Puppet Art is, selecting it will surely draw opposition.]
[Taiyi Zhenren: The Earthfla Fruit Tree is superior in every way and enhances overall strength. It's far better than the Myriad Domain Puppet Art, which disrupts the natural order.]
[Guanyin Bodhisattva: It still depends on Yuanshi Tianzun. Maybe he prefers the Myriad Domain Puppet Art, or he might discard the Earthfla Fruit Tree entirely.]
[Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva: Yuanshi Tianzun is a Saint—he will surely choose wisely. Let's just wait and see.]
Seeing everyone's discussion, Yuanshi Tianzun had already made up his mind. The Myriad Domain Puppet Art was simply too controversial; even if he chose it, he would beco the target of universal rejection.
The Earthfla Fruit Tree, on the other hand, was an exceptional reward. It provided comprehensive strength enhancent, and the fruit could be traded with other Saints for resources and treasures. It had countless uses.
[Laozi: The Myriad Domain Puppet Art is ultimately inappropriate. The Earthfla Fruit Tree, ranking 35th, is already a solid reward. If one overreaches, problems may arise.]
[Jieyin Buddha: The Earthfla Fruit Tree is clearly the better choice. Who knows what will happen with the Myriad Domain Puppet Art?]
[Zhunti: Well said. The Earthfla Fruit Tree is predictable—what kind of fruit it produces is what you get. But the Myriad Domain Puppet Art? That's an unknown risk.]
With all the Saints voicing their opinions, even if Yuanshi Tianzun had hesitated, he had no choice now.
[Yuanshi Tianzun: Since everyone insists, I will choose the second reward—the Earthfla Fruit Tree!]
The mont Yuanshi Tianzun made his choice, the others felt relieved.
[Nuwa: The Peach Tree in the Heavenly Court has the Peach Banquet every so often. The Earthfla Fruit Tree is far superior—wouldn't it be a waste not to hold a grand gathering when it matures?]
With such an incredible treasure, and the potential to share in its bounty, Nuwa naturally wouldn't let the opportunity slip by.
She wasn't the only one with her eye on it. The other Saints also coveted it. With its ability to enhance strength and its limitless fruit production, how could they not want a share?
[Laozi: Indeed! If a grand gathering is held, we can all bring sothing in return.]
[Zhunti: A treasure like the Earthfla Fruit Tree—it would be a sha not to even have a taste!]
[Houtu: Please consider carefully, Yuanshi Tianzun. If we attend, we certainly won't co empty-handed!]
