The two treasures manifested in the sky were a pair of longswords.

One black, one white.

They hovered unsteadily in midair, appearing utterly eerie.

The moment these two treasures appeared, all beings in the Primordial World were shocked...

The two treasures manifested in the sky were none other than Ancestor Minghe's Yuantu and Abi Swords.

Soon, the Grand Dao Script also manifested in the sky.

["Treasure Ranking, Fortieth Place: Yuantu and Abi Swords. Yuantu: Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, supreme weapon of slaughter, kills without incurring karmic sin. It is the physical embodiment of the Path of Slaughter between heaven and earth. The one who wields both Yuantu and Abi is the Master of the Path of Slaughter. Its function leans toward massacre. It is one of the most renowned sword implements in the world. Master: Minghe."]

After the Grand Dao Script appeared in the sky, many people exclaimed in astonishment.

Yet many others felt puzzled.

Why had the Yuantu and Abi Swords appeared so early?

These two swords had long been famed throughout the Primordial World.

They were two blades of the Path of Slaughter.

Perfectly complementing Minghe's Path of Slaughter.

Ancestor Minghe's method of attaining enlightenment and becoming a saint was self-proclaimed as: Slay Heaven, Slay Earth, Slay All Beings.

Thus, these two swords, having stayed by Minghe's side, had slaughtered countless living beings of the Primordial World.

They had long been drenched in endless blood.

Yet what was even more bizarre was that these two divine swords killed without incurring karmic sin!

That was a level of abnormality beyond imagination.

And these two longswords were ranked only in fortieth place?

Was that true?

Many people began to doubt the Treasure Ranking.

Setting aside the beings of the Primordial World for now...

Even Ancestor Minghe himself was somewhat taken aback.

"Only ranked in fortieth place?"

That figure, wreathed in towering blood light, murmured to himself.

According to his expectations, these two divine swords should have ranked around the top ten...

If one truly spoke of killing power.

His two divine swords absolutely deserved that name.

Yet now they were only ranked in fortieth...

That was rather infuriating.

Ancestor Minghe opened his murky eyes and stared intently at the sky above.

At this moment, he too understood Taoist Randeng's thoughts.

No wonder Taoist Randeng had roared in defiance.

Taoist Randeng's Cosmos Ruler was indeed quite remarkable.

Logically, it should have ranked around the twentieth or thirtieth place on the Primordial Ranking.

Yet in the end, it was only ranked fifty-first.

His own two divine swords should have ranked around tenth, or at most within the teens...

Yet in the end, they were placed in fortieth...

It wasn't that their treasures were weak.

Rather, the entire ranking of treasures had been pushed back by about twenty places.

Now, there was bound to be a good show to watch.

The beings of the Primordial World buzzed with discussion.

Everyone had begun to doubt the Treasure Ranking.

If even a slaughter treasure like Yuantu and Abi wasn't ranked highly, then what kind of treasure would be considered high-ranked?

Everyone grew even more expectant of the treasures to come.

Every single person raised their head, their attention completely focused.

Before long, the golden aura filling the sky began to seethe once more.

Was a treasure finally about to appear?

Many people stared fixedly at the sky above.

The golden aura seethed for a long time before finally evolving into a treasure.

It was something resembling a whip or a willow branch.

Then, Grand Dao Script manifested.

["Treasure Ranking, thirty-ninth: Creation Whip. Rank: Acquired Merit Supreme Treasure! Though its grade is not high, it possesses the supreme merit of creating humanity, making it a merit supreme treasure with unfathomable power, capable of lashing all living beings. Master: Nuwa!"]

After this treasure appeared, the entire Primordial World erupted in uproar once again.

Another sage's treasure.

Goddess Nuwa's merit supreme treasure for creating humanity was only ranked thirty-ninth?

What was going on?

Why was its ranking so low?

By this point, many understood.

It wasn't that these treasures were weak.

Rather, their rankings had been uniformly pushed back by about twenty places...

This was truly beyond belief.

Even a treasure like the Creation Whip was ranked so low.

By now, many gazes had turned solemn.

They stared fixedly at the vast, boundless Hongmeng Purple Gold List in the sky.

They were determined to see what treasures ranked ahead.

Many were particularly tense.

Thus, time seemed to pass quickly.

Before long, another treasure manifested in the air.

This treasure was a scroll.

As the scroll slowly unfurled in the sky, the painting within revealed an extremely mysterious and eerie Eight Trigrams Cosmos Diagram.

As soon as this treasure appeared, the entire Primordial World erupted in uproar once again.

Another sage's treasure.

Wasn't this Grand Supreme Old Lord's Cosmos Diagram?

Starting from the Yuantu and Abi Swords, every one of these treasures was immensely powerful and should have been ranked in the top ten!

Why were they now appearing only in the thirties?

Just then, Grand Dao Script appeared in the sky:

["Treasure Ranking, thirty-seventh: Cosmos Diagram. Rank: Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. Within the diagram lie the cosmos and eight trigrams, the heavens and earth of the cosmos, the cosmos of heaven and earth. Qian is heaven, Kun is earth. Qian is known through ease, Kun is known through simplicity. With the diagram in hand, the cosmos is mine. Master: Grand Supreme."]

Many drew in a sharp breath.

What in the world was this?

The entire Primordial World was now in chaos.

All sorts of discordant voices arose.

Everyone found it unbelievable.

Aside from these great powers, even the several sages found it somewhat unbelievable.

Each wore an ugly expression.

Grand Supreme Old Lord's Cosmos Diagram should, by all reason, have been ranked at least in the teens, yet now it was only ranked thirty-eighth?

This was simply unimaginable.

"Everyone, do not be disturbed. Let us calmly observe how the ranking proceeds."

The one who spoke this time was the ever-silent Sage Tongtian.

He, too, felt something was off.

Could it be that there were thirty-seven or thirty-eight treasures in heaven and earth more powerful than the Cosmos Diagram?

If that were truly the case, then this Primordial World was about to undergo a great upheaval.

Hearing a sage speak, everyone fell silent.

His gaze was fixed tightly on the Hongmeng Purple Gold List in the sky.

Waiting for the Treasure Ranking to be announced.

For a moment, many felt that time was passing too slowly—a brief span of moments, yet the wait was unbearably agonizing.

Soon, the next treasure was revealed.

It was an enormous banner.

This banner seemed somewhat peculiar, appearing in a triangular shape.

Many ministers recognized it as soon as they saw it.

This was another Sage's treasure.

Wasn't that Sage Tongtian's Six Souls Banner?

As the Grand Dao Script manifested, the name of this treasure was finally confirmed.

["Treasure Ranking, thirty-seventh place: Six Souls Banner. Rank: Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. This treasure possesses boundless power, capable of altering the earth, water, fire, and wind of the universe, erasing heavenly fate, and reshaping all things. By writing six names on the Six Souls Banner, one can claim the lives of those six, a feat even Sages find hard to resist. Master: Tongtian!"]

The moment these lines of Grand Dao Script appeared, the entire Primordial World erupted in uproar.

Such a formidable treasure as the Six Souls Banner was only ranked thirty-seventh?
