Many people even began to groan at this moment.

This was simply unimaginable.

Even Sage Tongtian's expression turned ugly.

Although he rarely used this Six Souls Banner, aside from the Four Swords of Zhuxian,

it was his strongest treasure.

Yet it was now only ranked thirty-seventh...

Tongtian, who had always possessed a stern temperament, could not help but curse under his breath at this moment.

Amid the frantic discussions of the Primordial World's inhabitants, another mysterious treasure lifted its veil.

This time, two treasures appeared together as well.

One was a scroll.

The other was a book.

As soon as these two treasures appeared,

many people cried out in alarm.

"Hetu Luoshu..."

Hetu Luoshu was immensely renowned.

Throughout the Primordial Land, practically everyone knew of it.

In many people's minds,

it was absolutely a treasure that should have ranked among the top ten.

Yet it was now only ranked thirty-sixth on the list.

Grand Dao Script soon began to manifest:

["Treasure Ranking, thirty-sixth: Hetu Luoshu. A Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. The Hetu depicts an endless sea of stars; using this treasure, one can arrange the Twenty-Eight Mansions Grand Formation. The Luoshu records the mysteries of heaven and earth and the ultimate truths of the universe; using this treasure, one can arrange the Zodiac Twelve Palaces Grand Formation. Owner: Emperor Jun."]

As the Grand Dao Script appeared,

many people sucked in a cold breath.

They had all heard of Hetu Luoshu's great reputation.

But they had never known its specific functions.

Now that they had been revealed, they indeed shocked half of the Primordial World.

The Twenty-Eight Mansions Grand Formation...

The Zodiac Twelve Palaces Grand Formation...

They had never even heard of them.

Emperor Jun of the demon race had hidden himself remarkably well...

Within the boundless Heavenly Court, the two peerlessly elegant figures were also somewhat stunned.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's brow furrowed slightly.

"Big Brother, do not worry. By rights, your Hetu Luoshu should rank higher than this. There must be some other reason."

Emperor Jun shook his head with a bitter smile.

"It is not that my treasure is too weak, but that there seems to be something wrong with this ranking. Forget me—haven't the Sage treasures also been ranked here? Let us wait quietly..."

After a short while,

another treasure manifested.

This treasure was also a scroll.

The scroll gradually unfurled in the air.

Within it lay a vast realm of mountains, rivers, and states.

Another Sage treasure.

Many people cried out in shock.

Was this not Goddess Nuwa's Shanhe Sheji Map?

Following the appearance of Hetu Luoshu, the Shanhe Sheji Map appeared immediately afterward.

Before long, Grand Dao Script appeared in the air as well:

["Treasure Ranking, thirty-fifth: Shanhe Sheji Map. A Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. This is the supreme treasure of mountains and states, containing a world within. It possesses the Seven Deadly Sins of Heaven and Earth. Anyone with desires who enters this treasure will be suppressed by it; even a Sage will find it difficult to escape! Owner: Nuwa!"]

Even such a powerful Shanhe Sheji Map was only ranked in the thirties...

Countless living beings of the Primordial World were left dumbfounded in shock.

Most of the powerful treasures renowned throughout the Primordial World had already appeared.

But the crucial issue was that they were all stuck around the thirties and forties.

Only a very few treasures had yet to appear.

Then what treasures occupied the higher ranks?

Many impatient people felt as though they were about to go mad.

Just then, the Purple-Gold Qi filling the heavens flashed with another burst of brilliant radiance.

Another phantom of a treasure manifested.

This treasure looked like a dried tree branch.

It emitted a faint glow in the air as it slowly rotated.

As soon as this treasure appeared,

the entire Primordial World was once again shaken.

Everyone recognized this treasure.

Was this not Sage Zhunti's Seven Treasure Mystical Tree?

There was no need even to read the Grand Dao Script.

Everyone knew this treasure extremely well.

This treasure was called the Seven Treasure Mystical Tree, also known as the Seven Treasure Brush Tree.

It was forged by Western Sage Zhunti after he took a section from his true form, the Bodhi Tree, and refined it with seven treasures—gold, silver, lapis lazuli, glass, chank shell, red pearls, and agate—for countless years.

It was said to brush away anything, and its power was exceedingly formidable.

Yet such an incomparably powerful Sage treasure was only ranked thirty-fourth...

All the living beings across the Primordial Land continued their endless discussions.

However, Sage Zhunti of Western Mount Sumeru had a cold expression.

He felt a chill run through his entire body.

Finally... had he stopped here after all?

Zhunti Daoist's face turned green, and cold sweat even seeped from his brow.

His three most treasured artifacts had now all made the list.

They were:

the Six Roots of Purity Bamboo, ranked fiftieth.

the Empowering Divine Pestle, ranked forty-second.

and the Seven Treasure Mystical Tree, ranked thirty-fourth.

His three strongest treasures had all appeared on the list... he had truly stopped here!

From here on, it would have nothing more to do with him.

At that thought, Zhunti Daoist's expression could not help growing even uglier.

He turned to look at his senior brother, wanting to say something.

But he discovered that his senior brother's expression was even worse.

Zhunti Daoist was taken aback.

Then he understood.

He could not help but sympathize with his senior brother.

No matter what, his own three strongest treasures had at least made the list.

But only one of his senior brother's treasures had appeared so far.

In that case, he was far stronger than his senior brother after all.

Senior Brother Jieyin had three strongest treasures in total.

They were the Receiver Divine Canopy, ranked forty-ninth,

as well as the Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus and the Azure Lotus Treasure Flag, neither of which had appeared on the list.

Although these two treasures were also exceptionally powerful,

they still fell short of his Seven Treasure Mystical Tree.

Now that even his Seven Treasure Mystical Tree had made the list,

his senior brother's two treasures likely had no chance...

At that thought, Zhunti Daoist could not help sighing once more.

The West had always been barren.

Compared to the prosperous East, it still lagged far behind...

The task of revitalizing the Western religion remained distant and unreachable...

Within Golden Turtle Island, Biyou Palace, Master Tongtian was already more than half drunk.

Looking at the Seven Treasure Mystical Tree in the void, he could not help revealing a disdainful smile.

"The Seven Treasure Mystical Tree? It is only so-so..."

It seemed that Zhunti could only go this far...

Within Tushita Palace, Grand Supreme Old Lord also smiled faintly.

The Seven Treasure Mystical Tree could be considered unique among the treasures of the West.

Yet even so, it had only barely ranked thirty-fourth.

In that case, the treasures to come would have nothing further to do with the West.

Although the rankings of the Primordial World's many treasures had all been rather low,

Grand Supreme Old Lord was not worried.

After all, he still had two incomparably powerful treasures that had yet to appear on the list.

Naturally, he was full of confidence.

Within Jade Void Palace, Yuanshi Tianzun also revealed a disdainful expression.

The witch race and demon race were at odds.

The Sages were no different.

The Eastern Sages and Western Sages were also at odds.

With the West stopping here, he, as an Eastern Sage, was naturally delighted.

Although this ranking seemed somewhat strange,

Yuanshi Tianzun was not afraid either.

He still had two incomparably powerful treasures that had yet to appear on the ranking.

What came next would be a contest between the Eastern Sages.

Golden light blazed as purple qi surged.

Another treasure manifested in the air.

As soon as this treasure appeared,

the entire Primordial World erupted into an uproar once again.

Many people also sucked in cold breaths.
