The two treasures manifested in the air were a pair of longswords.
One black and one white.
They hovered unsteadily in the air, looking exceedingly strange.
The moment these two treasures appeared, all living beings of the Primordial World were shocked...
The two treasures manifested in the air were none other than Ancestor Minghe's Yuantu and Abi Swords.
Before long, Grand Dao Script also manifested in the air.
["Treasure Ranking, fortieth place: Yuantu and Abi Swords. Yuantu: Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, a supreme treasure of slaughter that incurred no karma when killing. It was the manifestation of the Path of Slaughter between heaven and earth. Whoever jointly wielded Yuantu and Abi would become the master of the Path of Slaughter. Its function leaned toward massacre. It was one of the most renowned swords in the world. Owner: Styx."]
After the Grand Dao Script appeared in the sky, many people exclaimed in astonishment.
Many others were baffled.
Why had the Yuantu and Abi Swords appeared so early?
These two swords had long been famous throughout the Primordial World.
They were swords of the Path of Slaughter.
They perfectly complemented Styx's Path of Slaughter.
Ancestor Minghe's method of attaining Sainthood was known as: slaughter heaven, slaughter earth, slaughter all living beings.
Thus, following Styx, these two swords had massacred an unknown number of living beings in the Primordial World.
They had long been stained with countless amounts of blood.
Yet what was even stranger was that these divine swords incurred no karma when killing!
That was absurdly overpowered beyond imagination.
Such a pair of longswords was only ranked fortieth?
Was that really true?
Many people began to doubt the Treasure Ranking.
Setting aside the living beings of the Primordial World for now.
Even Ancestor Minghe himself was somewhat surprised.
"Only fortieth?"
The blood-red figure towering into the heavens muttered to himself.
By his estimation, these two divine swords should at least have ranked around the top ten...
If one truly considered their destructive power.
His two divine swords absolutely deserved that ranking.
Yet now they had somehow only ranked fortieth...
That was truly a slap in the face.
Ancestor Minghe opened his murky eyes and stared intently at the sky.
At that moment, he understood Taoist Randeng's feelings.
No wonder Taoist Randeng had roared in refusal to accept it.
Taoist Randeng's Cosmos Ruler was indeed quite extraordinary.
Logically, it should have ranked somewhere around twentieth or thirtieth on the Primordial World rankings.
Yet it had ultimately only placed fifty-first.
His two divine swords should have ranked around tenth, or at worst somewhere in the teens...
Yet they had ultimately ranked fortieth...
It was not that their treasures were weak.
Rather, all treasures had been ranked roughly twenty places lower overall.
Now this was going to be interesting.
The living beings of the Primordial World discussed it heatedly.
Everyone began to question the Treasure Ranking.
Even murderous treasures like Yuantu and Abi were not ranked highly, so what kind of treasure could be considered highly ranked?
Everyone grew increasingly eager for the treasures to come.
Each of them held their heads high, their attention wholly focused on the sky.
Before long, the golden aura filling the heavens began to churn once again.
Was another treasure finally about to appear?
Many people stared intently upward.
After the golden aura churned for a long while, it finally evolved into a treasure.
It was something that resembled both a whip and a willow branch.
Then Grand Dao Script manifested.
["Treasure Ranking, thirty-ninth place: Creation Whip. An Acquired Merit Supreme Treasure! Though its grade was not high, it possessed the supreme merit of the Creation of Humanity. As a Merit Supreme Treasure, it held unfathomable power and could whip all things and all living beings. Owner: Nuwa!"]
After this treasure appeared, the entire Primordial World erupted into an uproar once more.
Another Sage treasure.
Goddess Nuwa's Merit Supreme Treasure from the Creation of Humanity was only ranked thirty-ninth?
What exactly was going on?
Why were these rankings so low?
At this moment, many people finally understood.
It was not that these treasures were weak.
It was that their rankings had all been pushed back by roughly twenty places...
This was simply too unbelievable.
Even a treasure like the Creation Whip ranked so low.
By now.
Many people's expressions had turned solemn.
They stared intently at the heavens, at the vast and boundless Hongmeng Purple Gold List.
They wanted to see clearly just what treasures ranked ahead of these.
Many people were especially nervous.
Thus, time seemed to pass especially quickly.
Before long, another treasure manifested in the air.
This treasure was a scroll.
As the scroll in the air slowly unfurled.
It revealed an exceedingly mysterious and bizarre Cosmos Diagram of the Eight Trigrams.
The moment this treasure appeared.
The entire Primordial World erupted into an uproar yet again.
Another Sage treasure.
Wasn't that Grand Supreme Old Lord's Cosmos Diagram?
Starting from the Yuantu and Abi Swords, every one of these treasures possessed boundless power and should have ranked in the top ten!
Why were they all appearing when the rankings had only reached the thirties?
At that moment, Grand Dao Script appeared in the heavens:
["Treasure Ranking, thirty-seventh place: Cosmos Diagram. A Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. Within the diagram lay the cosmos and the Eight Trigrams: heaven and earth, earth and heaven. Qian was heaven, Kun was earth. Qian was known through ease, Kun was capable through simplicity. With this diagram in hand, the cosmos is mine. Owner: Taishang."]
Many people sucked in cold breaths.
What the hell was this?
The entire Primordial World was in utter chaos at that moment.
All sorts of disorderly voices rang out.
Everyone found it inconceivable.
Aside from these great powers.
Even the several Sages found it somewhat unbelievable.
Every one of them wore an ugly expression.
Grand Supreme Old Lord's Cosmos Diagram should logically have ranked at least somewhere in the teens, yet it was now only ranked thirty-eighth?
That was simply unimaginable.
"Do not panic, everyone. Let us calmly watch and see how the rankings unfold."
This time, it was Sage Tongtian, who had always been sparing with words, who spoke.
He too felt that something was strange.
Could it be that there were thirty-seven or thirty-eight treasures between heaven and earth more powerful than the Cosmos Diagram?
If that were truly the case.
Then this Primordial World was likely about to undergo a tremendous change.
Upon hearing a Sage speak.
Everyone fell silent.
Their eyes remained fixed on the Hongmeng Purple Gold List in the heavens.
They waited for the treasure rankings to be announced.
For a time, many felt that time was passing far too slowly. Though only a brief moment had passed, the wait felt unbearably agonizing.
Soon, the next treasure was announced.
It was an enormous banner.
This banner seemed rather strange, appearing triangular in shape.
After seeing this treasure, many great powers realized what it was.
This was another Sage treasure.
Wasn't that Sage Tongtian's Six Souls Banner?
As Grand Dao Script manifested, the treasure's name was finally confirmed.
["Treasure Ranking, thirty-seventh place: Six Souls Banner. A Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. This treasure possessed boundless power and could alter the cosmic earth, water, fire, and wind; erase the ordained order of heaven; and reshape all things. Write the names of six people on the Six Souls Banner, and their lives could be worshipped away. Even Sages would find it difficult to resist. Owner: Tongtian!"]
After these lines of Grand Dao Script appeared, the entire Primordial World erupted into an even greater uproar.
Such a formidable Six Souls Banner was only ranked thirty-seventh?
