Chapter 338 The Heavenly Emperor's Billion-Dollar Subsidy: Zhunti Rejected Due to Insufficient

"Choose." Haotian pushed, and all the spiritual treasures floated in front of Yaochi.

Yaochi was somewhat troubled. She possessed the Heavenly Auspicious Cloud bestowed upon her by her master, and she also used her senior brother's God-Slaying Spear. The Taiyin Nirvana Wheel was even more powerful than the Dao-proving treasures of saints, and the Eye of Heavenly Punishment was more powerful than ordinary innate treasures in the primordial world.

It is at least stronger than the Qiankun Cauldron and can be compared to the Three Treasures of Creation!

She and Haotian, the couple, were not lacking in treasures.

"This is quite something; I might as well play with it for a bit." Yaochi picked up the Holy Grail of Destiny, her divine sense surging, and a look of surprise appeared in her eyes. This divine water...

The saints were momentarily speechless. Are innate treasures only meant for you to play with?

Haotian ignored them. For him and Yaochi, these innate treasures could not provide much help; they were only useful in certain aspects.

"The merits you have gained this time are insufficient to obtain the innate treasure."

The other saints looked somber, but it was the truth. They had only done what they were supposed to do and had no outstanding achievements. Moreover, the treasures they possessed were lent to them by the Heavenly Emperor.

Otherwise, the Heavenly Emperor alone could possess all the innate treasures!

"However, you have made a contribution after all. I will place the innate treasure in the Merit Merchant Guild, and you can exchange it with your merits after you return to the Primordial World."

The saints' eyes lit up. During this great calamity, they fought a hard battle in the chaos, which the Heavenly Dao had witnessed. They would surely receive merit upon their return.

only……

Jieyin and Zhunti looked somber. They still needed to accumulate merit to eliminate their great vows. The Three Pure Ones also sighed, as the turbid and evil energy within their bodies was difficult to dispel. Tongtian, in particular, was still burdened by the karma of countless eons.

One unit of turbid and malevolent energy requires two units of merit to dispel!

Even if you become a saint, you might not have enough merit!

If it weren't for this great calamity, it would probably have taken several more eons for Tongtian to eliminate the hidden dangers.

Lao Tzu glanced at the Golden Lotus of Creation in Yuan Shi's hand; that plan needed to be launched as soon as possible!

"The Merit Merchant Guild is now open, and you can exchange for all kinds of spiritual items and treasures. You have made a contribution this time, so fellow cultivators can enjoy a 20% discount on the exchange of innate supreme treasures!"

The saints were shocked. The price of the innate treasure was nine pounds and fifteen pence (not really), or five hundred billion merit coins. With a 20% discount, it meant they could save ten billion, which was a ten billion subsidy from the Heavenly Emperor!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" All the emperors bowed in unison.

"Your Majesty, I wish to exchange for the Three-Phase Divine Halberd!" Zhen Yuanzi stood up first, pointing to the treasure floating in the void.

"Zhen Yuanzi, you..." Zhunti's face turned ashen. Among these treasures, only the treasures of the Three Phases Universe were most compatible with their Buddhism, while the Golden Lotus of Creation and the Brahma Wheel had already been taken by the Three Pure Ones.

The Boundless Conch Shell was merely an auxiliary spiritual treasure, and its aura was the weakest. He and his senior brother ultimately focused their attention on the Three-Phase Divine Halberd, but Zhen Yuanzi suddenly wanted to interfere.

"Have you forgotten how you treated Hongyun back then?" Zhen Yuanzi sneered. "I haven't forgotten. Moreover, I've been at odds with you all these years. Given your personalities, you must have held a grudge against me for a long time."

Zhen Yuanzi smiled contemptuously, "Whether it's for Hongyun or for this humble Taoist, I will not let this go."

The sages remained silent, then raised an eyebrow and gave Hongjun a wink: they had just gone to deal with the external enemy, and internal strife had already begun.

Hongjun shook his head. This is a problem left over from history!

Jieyin restrained the enraged Zhunti, his voice calm: "Even if His Majesty offers a 20% discount, Fellow Daoist Zhenyuan should still be unable to come up with 40 billion merit coins!"

Zhen Yuanzi's brow twitched slightly, and he sneered, "Fellow Daoist, you seem to know me quite well!"

Hongyun stood up abruptly, looking at the two with an icy expression: "There's no need for you two to trouble yourselves with that."

As he unfolded his auspicious cloud, merit coins rained down, totaling exactly one hundred billion.

Zhen Yuanzi also unfurled his auspicious clouds; he only had 25 billion.

Hongyun lowered his head, his face pleading: "Brother Fuxi, Brother Xuanyuan, please lend me..."

"No!" Zhen Yuanzi shook his head to stop them. If the three emperors acted together, the scope of the struggle would become quite large.

A thoughtful look crossed the eyes of Sanqing, Kunpeng, and Minghe. Could it be that Zhenyuanzi wanted to borrow money from the Heavenly Emperor?

Merit Merchant Guild does indeed offer this service. Fifty billion merit coins is a huge sum, and it is only available to saints. However, given Zhen Yuanzi's character and credit, he can borrow it!

"Your Majesty, may I borrow some of my merits?" Zhen Yuanzi bowed deeply to Houtu.

It's somewhat inappropriate to borrow money from the Heavenly Court to buy its most precious treasures, but fortunately, Zhen Yuanzi has a wide circle of friends.

Houtu glanced at Haotian and saw him tap his finger almost imperceptibly. She smiled sweetly at Zhenyuanzi, and fifty billion merit coins fell directly from Qingyun.

"Wait a minute!" Zhun stood up. "Since we can borrow merit, I would also like to borrow it to exchange for this Three-Phase Divine Halberd."

The Three Pure Ones lowered their eyelids: "We are tainted by turbid and evil energy, and have no merit to speak of."

Styx Kunpeng shrugged: "Fellow Daoist, I have only recently attained enlightenment and have accumulated a few hundred million merits."

Needless to say, Fuxi and Xuanyuan would never lend money to Shennong instead of the two Westerners!

Zhunti's expression was grim, and Houtu slowly spoke: "I have already lent it to Fellow Daoist Zhenyuan, please forgive me for being powerless to help."

"Senior Sister." Zhunti looked at Nuwa with anticipation. This senior sister had attained enlightenment through merit and was the first saint after their master. She had also performed many great deeds. Apart from the Heavenly Emperor, she had no shortage of merit.

Nuwa toyed with the Life Bottle, looked at Zhunti with a gentle smile, and said, "This humble Taoist does indeed have the merit to purchase a supreme innate treasure, but..."

Her expression was somewhat subtle, as if she were apologizing for what she was about to say: "Junior brothers, I don't trust either of you. Besides, I don't know when you'll be able to return what I've borrowed from you."

"Therefore, I won't lend it!"

As if his spine had been removed, Zhunti slumped weakly onto the futon. He slowly raised his head and looked at the treasure-dropping coin that Haotian was playing with above, a last glimmer of hope appearing in his eyes.

Haotian slowly shook his head, Yaochi gently stroked her abdomen, but her voice was very cold: "The Heavenly Court also examines the character of cultivators when it comes to renting services. Moreover, hundreds of billions of merits are also related to whether they have the ability to repay. Such a number is only for Senior Brother Sanqing, Senior Sister Nuwa, and Fellow Daoist Houtu."

"Zhen Yuanzi and the Three Sovereigns of the Human Race are slightly inferior, and as for you..."

Yaochi gave a cold laugh: "My two senior brothers, your reputation is not good enough for the Merit Merchant Guild to lend you merit."

The saints remained indifferent, their eyes revealing two words: "Serves them right!"

To be precise, Jieyin and Zhunti were now being punished by the consequences of their past lack of virtue. They already had a bad reputation, yet they didn't cherish it. Did they really think that just because they were saints, they could act recklessly?

We've embarrassed ourselves so many times, but as fellow saints, we all remember!

After putting away his merits, Haotian threw down the Three-Phase Divine Halberd. Zhen Yuanzi deliberately placed it in front of Jieyin and Zhunti to show it off before putting it away.

I noticed long ago that you two were only eyeing the treasures of the Three Phases Universe. If you could snatch them, I certainly wouldn't let it go.

"Is there anything else you want to exchange?" Haotian asked softly.

Nuwa looked at Fuxi: "Brother, is there anything else you need?"

"No, you can keep it yourself," Fuxi replied with a smile.

Nuwa frowned. She still wanted a supreme weapon, but there weren't many suitable ones. She decided to focus on comprehending the Life Bottle first.

Seeing that the saints remained silent, Haotian put away the spiritual treasure: "There are also some cultivators who have made great contributions in this prehistoric world, such as the Twelve Ancestral Witches, Zhou Tian Xingjun, and Long Ji, who should be credited with the greatest merit."

The saints raised their heads. What had Longji done?

Is it related to the Great Luo Heaven of Ten Thousand Saints mentioned by the Heavenly Emperor?

"Once you fellow Daoists return to the Primordial World, you will know that my daughter will indeed obtain a supreme innate treasure." Yaochi's brows were full of satisfaction.

Since Senior Brother said that Longji is alright, it means that the mission has been accomplished!
