Primordial Era: I, the Spiritual Stone Monkey, was born ahead of schedule to seize the throne.

Chapter 17 The Unpullable Gourd Vine

As he was laughing, Qi Tian's expression suddenly darkened:

"I think you're going too far! Seven gourds, but not one for me?"

"Then go find someone else. One for each of us is just right; we don't have any extras for you!"

As soon as Qi Tian finished speaking, Yuan Shi immediately retorted angrily.

Upon hearing this, Taiyi, Fuxi, and the others almost cursed!

That's absolutely shameless!

There's one for each of you, and not enough for them to go around!

Qi Tian laughed in anger, not even glancing at Yuan Shi. He didn't want to waste time with such a self-centered person.

Instead, he stared at Taiqing and said:

"You've already taken two, I don't want to waste any more words, I'm determined to get this black gourd!"

"Whether it's war or peace, you decide!"

As he spoke, the golden cudgel was slowly raised, and the laws of force on it reappeared.

The space around the staff seemed to be unable to bear the weight, and the space twisted and deformed.

He didn't bring up the favors he had done for Zixiao Palace before, otherwise it would be a waste of his talent!

"Swish"

As soon as Qi Tian unleashed the power of the law, Yuan Shi instinctively took a step back.

Taiqing's face darkened upon seeing this.

Yuanshi immediately realized what was happening and stepped forward again, but he was extremely embarrassed and his face turned red.

He was actually scared off!

However, he was genuinely traumatized by the Law of Force before!

Seeing Yuanshi's fear, Tongtian, standing nearby, remained silent.

There are three of us on our side and only one on the other side, what are you afraid of!

Just as the four were about to draw their swords and engage in a fierce fight.

Nuwa suddenly spoke:

"We all take one, but you all take three. What's wrong with sharing one?"

"Junior Sister."

Upon hearing this, Fuxi's expression changed, but it was too late to stop him.

Sure enough, all three Qing masters looked over with grim faces.

Without a second thought, Fuxi immediately stepped forward, blocking Nuwa's path, and laughed:

"Haha, I mentioned it to my junior sister via telepathy, but I didn't expect her to say it outright. Now that it's out in the open, I do think the three of you should give one of you a chance to meet Fellow Daoist Qitian!"

Fuxi offered no explanation or apology, for he knew it was futile.

So he took the responsibility upon himself.

This is what he should do as an older brother.

And indeed, the Three Pure Ones glared at him fiercely.

"Senior brother, it's me."

Nuwa then realized that she had said the wrong thing.

Although she was naive, she wasn't stupid; she knew that Fuxi wanted to take the blame for her.

So she immediately had to explain.

But Fuxi didn't give her a chance at all, and directly looked at Dijun, Taiyi, and the others, and said loudly:

"What do you fellow Daoists think?"

Nuwa had no choice but to swallow her words, but her heart was filled with warmth.

"No."

"Hahaha"

Just as Taiyi was about to speak, Dijun suddenly interrupted him with a loud laugh.

He looked at Nuwa, then at Fuxi, and continued:

"Fellow Daoist Fuxi is right. My second brother and I also think one of us should step aside!"

Taiyi glanced at Dijun with some doubt, but didn't ask anything. Instead, he nodded in agreement:

"We don't want to see some people bullying others by abusing their power!"

Upon hearing this, the Three Pure Ones' expressions became even more unpleasant.

The Styx River beside him remained silent, watching without saying a word.

Hongyun was about to speak, but Zhen Yuanzi stopped her.

Their strength is still slightly inferior, so it's best for them to stay out of it.

The Primordial Purple Qi on Hongyun's body was already coveted by many; any further trouble would only exacerbate the situation.

I really can't take it anymore!

At this moment, Qi Tian saw that Nuwa spoke up for him, and his goodwill towards Nuwa increased instantly.

This is the second time the other party has helped me!

Of course, he also realized that Nuwa wasn't interested in him.

Or perhaps they have feelings for you, and they're simply standing up for someone in need.

As for Fuxi, Taiyi, and Dijun, his gratitude was minimal.

He knew that each of the three people who spoke up for him had their own agenda.

Besides, he didn't need any help in the first place.

However, he was not an ungrateful person; later...

If we really have to rob them, we'll just rob them one less time!

That settled the favor.

"you."

At this moment, Yuanshi looked at Fuxi, Dijun, and Taiyi with some annoyance, wanting to say something, but was stopped by Taiqing.

"Alright, we don't want this black gourd!"

"Senior brother."

Yuan Shi was immediately alarmed.

But seeing Taiqing's expressionless face, he dared not say anything more and could only turn his head away in a huff.

"Haha, then I'll gladly accept!"

Qi Tian laughed heartily, hoisted his golden cudgel onto his shoulder, and flew straight to the gourd vine.

He didn't pick the black gourd.

Instead, he grabbed the gourd vine with one hand and pulled hard.

"Oh my god!"

Qi Tian stumbled and nearly fell headfirst off the cliff.

He hadn't expected the gourd vine roots to be so sturdy; the force that could easily lift a boulder weighing tens of thousands of kilograms hadn't been able to pull it out.

He even tripped up and made a fool of himself!

"Giggle~"

Seeing Qi Tian's disheveled and embarrassed state, Nuwa couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"How embarrassing!" Qi Tian thought to himself, feeling somewhat awkward.

He then retrieved the golden cudgel into his primordial spirit, freeing his two hands.

Grasp the gourd vine, muster all your strength, and pull hard again.

"Bang~"

The gourd vines instantly straightened and even trembled a few times.

However, the gourd vine still couldn't be pulled out.

Qi Tian was dumbfounded!

That root is really deep! With the power he just used, that's only on Mount Buzhou.

In another place, he could uproot an entire mountain!

"Tch~"

Seeing Qi Tian's dumbfounded expression, Yuan Shi sneered and said in a sarcastic tone:

"You couldn't even pull it out when we gave it to you for free, and you're actually fighting with us for it! How utterly ridiculous! Hahaha~~~"

Qi Tian had no time to pay attention to Yuan Shi's taunts.

Instead, he stared at the gourd vine with some suspicion and looked at it carefully.

That shouldn't be happening!

The next moment, he seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes lit up.

Could there be something else down there?

Thinking of this, he immediately summoned his golden cudgel, transformed it into a sharp sword, and began digging at the base of the gourd vine.

When the others saw this, they were stunned and wondered what Qi Tian was up to.

If it really can't be pulled out, should we dig it out?

But then, as if realizing something, he instantly became suspicious and uncertain.

No way?

His eyes were fixed on Qi Tian.

Qi Tian ignored them and started digging furiously at the cliff with his butt sticking out.

Soon, he dug a large pit at the base of the gourd vine.

As the pit grew deeper, Qi Tian's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Because he sensed another innate energy.

Moreover, it is extremely concentrated, much stronger than the innate gourd.

"Whoosh!"

Just as Qi Tian dug open another stone, a huge golden light shot into the sky.

The rich earth elemental power filled the surroundings, causing the vines and ancient trees around them to grow wildly.

Qi Tian's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he pulled hard.

He pulled the gourd vine out easily this time, with a clod of yellowish-brown soil about the size of a football still attached to its roots.

"This is."
