The Merit Golden Lotus felt utter misery in its heart. This time, it had truly blundered and lost immense face.
Seeing the spiritual treasures in the group, every single one, was now mocking it. This made the Merit Golden Lotus disappointed in the West and also indignant.
[Merit Golden Lotus: It's one thing for other treasure-sharing groups to mock me, but for you Western spiritual treasures to join in the fun? I truly question your loyalty to the West. Are you still considered Western spiritual treasures?]
[Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree: Loyalty to the West? Heh heh! I don't want to say much. Here's a friendly gesture. Figure it out yourself!]
[Reception Exquisite Flower Lantern: No way, no way. In this day and age, are there still spiritual treasures that have hope for the West?]
[Blissful Meditation Cushion: Enough, enough. The most embarrassing thing in my life was being sat upon by the West!]
[Nirvana Meditation Cushion: It's hard not to add to this. It's truly a disgrace in the history of spiritual treasures. Once you enter the West, it's as deep as the sea, and from then on, glory is a stranger!]
[Eastern Azure Lotus Treasure Banner: I'm really going insane. How did Dao Ancestor Hongjun bestow me upon this West?]
[Six Roots Pure Bamboo: Haha! Seeing you all like this puts my mind at ease. Fortunately, I refused to comply with death, otherwise, I'd be sighing here with you all now!]
[Merit Golden Lotus: I don't want to talk. I just want to be quiet.]
What else could the Merit Golden Lotus say? It could only silently close the chat group and sulk alone as a spiritual treasure.
These Western spiritual treasures, while not entirely a pile of loose sand, already had no sense of belonging to the West, no awareness of being Western spiritual treasures.
How hateful it was that a supreme treasure, transformed from a Chaos Azure Lotus seed, was directly assigned to the West by Dao Ancestor Hongjun with a wave of his hand?
In that instant, the Merit Golden Lotus understood Jin Chanzi's feelings. He and it were the same, both trapped in the West, unable to escape!
Xu Fang looked at the messages in the chat group and silently mourned the Merit Golden Lotus for a few seconds, expressing his sympathy.
Of course, Xu Fang's sympathy didn't last long. Soon, he chuckled unethically.
"This Merit Golden Lotus thinks this is the greatest misfortune for spiritual treasures, but it doesn't know that the Mosquito Daoist is waiting for it!"
Xu Fang knew very well that the Merit Golden Lotus joining him was merely the beginning of its misfortunes, far from over. It would still have to endure the fate of downgrading in the future.
This was the true great misfortune, which would make the Merit Golden Lotus a laughingstock among the spiritual treasures of the Primordial Era, making it even harder for it to hold its head up as a treasure.
Xu Fang was naturally pleased with this. Since the West was his enemy anyway, the power of spiritual treasures was still power. Seeing the West suffer a blow was a joy in his immortal life.
Seeing the Western spiritual treasures in the group putting on such a display, Xu Fang expressed his admiration. He hoped they would persevere and contribute their hindering power to the rise of the West!
Xu Fang looked at the messages in the group, his face beaming with joy. Seeing the live broadcast debut of the Merit Golden Lotus end in dismal failure, he intended to close the chat group.
After all, looking at Daoist Jieyin's demeanor, he wasn't likely to come looking for trouble. Xu Fang wouldn't have to sigh with annoyance.
However, at this moment, new messages appearing in the chat group attracted Xu Fang's attention.
[Enlightenment Tea Tree: Enough, enough. We know the West is giving up. Stop spamming, okay? I'm having trouble over here!]
[Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree: What's there to be bothered about, old tea tree? You have no attachments, you're free and at ease, just relax!]
[Merit Golden Lotus: Exactly. I wish I could be as carefree as you. Even if I rotted to death in the deep mountains, it would be better than staying here in the West!]
[Enlightenment Tea Tree: I wish I could, but I'm really bothered right now. Near my doorstep, I don't know when some creature started lingering.]
[Creation Jade Butterfly: A creature? Old tea tree, are you about to emerge and manifest? Otherwise, why would a creature be attracted?]
[Enlightenment Tea Tree: Not yet. Manifestation is still a long way off. But it looks like some creature has sensed my presence and hasn't left for a long time.]
[Yellow Middle Plum: This is terrible! Old tea tree, let me tell you, if you are forcibly harvested before you are ready to manifest, it will cause irreversible damage!]
[Innate Gourd Vine: Exactly. You must hold steady! If you downgrade because of this, you'll never be able to recover and will just live out the rest of your life like this!]
[Four Symbols Banana Tree: That's right. Old tea tree, you should know these things too, right?]
[Enlightenment Tea Tree: Of course, I know. That's why I'm so bothered. This time, disaster has truly come upon me while I was sitting at home!]
[Creation Jade Butterfly: Don't talk. Start a live broadcast for us. Maybe that creature is just passing by?]
[Measuring Heaven Ruler: Exactly. Maybe the situation isn't that bad?]
[Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree: Heh heh! I'm happy to see this. You old fellow are always competing with me for the chief experience officer position. Now you're getting what you deserve!]
[Ruyi Golden Cudgel: You scoundrel, do you have any compassion? You deserve to die in the West!]
[Enlightenment Tea Tree: This really isn't just passing by. I feel like it's coming specifically for me. No use saying more, I'll start a live broadcast for you all!]
Seeing this, Xu Fang's heart leaped. The Enlightenment Tea Tree was already being targeted?
The Enlightenment Tea Tree was an innate spiritual root. As its name suggested, its greatest use was to help beings improve their comprehension and accelerate their cultivation, making it a treasured item for cultivation.
Even though the Enlightenment Tea Tree was not among the top ten innate spiritual roots, it was not much inferior to them.
If there were an eleventh innate spiritual root, the Enlightenment Tea Tree would undoubtedly be on the list.
Xu Fang had long desired the Enlightenment Tea Tree but had not acted because it had not yet reached the stage of manifestation, and he did not dare to act rashly.
This would not only ruin the Enlightenment Tea Tree's opportunity but also his own, making it a loss that outweighed any gain.
However, Xu Fang had planned to let the Enlightenment Tea Tree grow naturally and collect it at the right time.
Who would have thought that at this moment, some creature had already set its sights on the Enlightenment Tea Tree!
Xu Fang could not guarantee that those creatures would wait as calmly as he did for the Enlightenment Tea Tree to manifest.
Once they discovered the Enlightenment Tea Tree, they would inevitably want to control it as soon as possible, regardless of whether it had manifested or not. Possession was the key!
Thinking of this, Xu Fang felt that something was amiss. The Enlightenment Tea Tree, which he had nurtured for so long, was now in danger!
"Ding!"
"Group member Enlightenment Tea Tree has started a group video live broadcast. Do you wish to watch?"
The chat group's prompt sounded. Xu Fang quickly clicked into it.
The most pressing matter now was to see the situation with the Enlightenment Tea Tree and then decide on a strategy.
No matter what, the Enlightenment Tea Tree that he had longed for for so long absolutely could not be intercepted and fall into someone else's hands!
