When this golden great cauldron appeared.

Many people's expressions shifted dramatically.

Because they too recognized this treasure.

After this treasure appeared, everyone in their hearts simultaneously acknowledged the authority of the Hongmeng Purple Gold List...

This treasure was ranked ahead of the Red Embroidered Ball, the All Heavens Celebration Cloud, and the Exquisite Pagoda of Heaven and Earth.

Everyone was filled with admiration!

Not a single person questioned this ranking.

All the great powers of the Primordial Era accepted this ranking.

Only because this golden great cauldron was named: the Cosmos Cauldron.

Before long, purple auras flickered unsteadily, and Grand Dao Script appeared in the void:

["Treasure Ranking Thirtieth: Cosmos Cauldron. Ranked as a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, or a half-step Primordial Treasure. Possesses the power to turn decay into miracle. Master: Hongjun."]

The Grand Dao Script was extremely simple.

Yet no one questioned this ranking.

Everyone had heard the legends of the Cosmos Cauldron.

Legend said that the Cosmos Cauldron was formed from the lotus seed pod of the Creation Green Lotus.

It could almost be said to have monopolized the fortune of Heaven and Earth.

The most basic function of the Cosmos Cauldron was to return things to their origin.

Any object that fell into the Cosmos Cauldron would be decomposed by the Cosmos Cauldron into its most primal power.

Beyond that, the Cosmos Cauldron also had the miraculous function of turning the mundane into the immortal.

Throw a piece of ordinary iron into the Cosmos Cauldron.

When it came out again, that piece of ordinary iron would become a post-natal treasure.

Throw a post-natal spiritual treasure into the Cosmos Cauldron.

When it came out again, it would become an innate spiritual treasure.

That was how miraculous it was.

These two functions were only the most basic existence.

If one used the Cosmos Cauldron to refine artifacts or alchemy.

It likewise had the effect of turning decay into miracle.

The range of uses for this Cosmos Cauldron was so vast, there was almost nothing it couldn't do.

If a truly great divine ability user wielded the Cosmos Cauldron.

They could even refine half the Primordial Era, truly a thing of great terror.

Before Dao Ancestor Hongjun incarnated to merge with the Dao, he gave away almost all of his treasures.

Keeping only the Creation Jade Tablet and this Cosmos Cauldron.

This was enough to show that even Dao Ancestor Hongjun had a particular fondness for the Cosmos Cauldron.

The Cosmos Cauldron, overwhelming the All Heavens Celebration Cloud and the Exquisite Pagoda of Heaven and Earth.

Everyone felt deep admiration.

Just at this moment.

Zhen Yuanzi of Five Villages Temple on Longevity Mountain suddenly trembled violently.

An expression of disbelief appeared in his eyes.

What was going on?

Why had his Earth Book not made the list?

Had his Earth Book failed to rank?

After all, the Cosmos Cauldron had made the list.

No matter how powerful his Earth Book was, it could not possibly be stronger than the Cosmos Cauldron, nor could it possibly be ranked ahead of the Cosmos Cauldron.

This being the case...

It meant his Earth Book had failed to rank.

Thinking of this, Zhen Yuanzi's expression suddenly changed.

Logically speaking, his Earth Book absolutely should not have failed to rank.

No matter how you looked at it, his Earth Book was far more powerful than Burning Lamp's Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, Chijingzi's Yin Yang Mirror, and Lord of the East's Dragon Head Staff.

But why was his Earth Book not on the list?

Could it be that he truly failed to make the list?

Or was his Earth Book ranked even ahead of the Cosmos Cauldron?

For a moment, Zhen Yuanzi's entire body trembled uncontrollably.

His eyes turned bloodshot.

His gaze was fixed tightly on the sky.

He possessed many powerful treasures.

But the only one qualified to appear on the ranking was this single Earth Book.

If the Earth Book failed to make the list.

That would mean he, Zhen Yuanzi, had failed to make the list as well.

This naturally caused him immense distress.

The ranking had reached this stage.

Aside from the four Primordial Treasures of the Primordial World.

Essentially everything else had already been listed.

So next.

Shouldn't it be the ranking of the Primordial Treasures themselves?

Everyone stared at the Hongmeng Purple Gold List in the sky with pounding hearts.

What came next was the most thrilling moment.

Likewise, it was a moment to witness a miracle.

The golden light in the sky suddenly flickered once more.

The dazzling golden radiance finally manifested a mysterious treasure above the Primordial World.

It was a hazy purple ruler.

At this moment, the boundless pressure of this ruler flooded heaven and earth, shaking the cosmos.

As soon as this treasure appeared.

Many great powers of the Primordial World trembled violently.

How could they have forgotten this treasure?

This treasure had not appeared in the world for a very long time.

Far too many people had forgotten about it.

Many stared at this treasure with bloodshot eyes.

They all knew what it was.

This treasure was precisely the nemesis of the thirty-first-ranked Exquisite Pagoda of Heaven and Earth on the Treasure Ranking.

It was said that when that pagoda stood above one's head, endless Profound Yellow Merit Virtue energy would cascade down.

As long as merit was not exhausted, the defense could not be broken, and one would forever stand undefeated.

But nothing was absolute.

What the Grand Dao of the Primordial World emphasized was the principle of balance; all things gave rise to and overcame each other, forming a cycle of reincarnation.

There was absolutely no treasure that could truly stand undefeated.

Opposite to that Exquisite Pagoda was this attack-type merit supreme treasure, the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler.

Back then, a few strands of Creation Merit encountered the Hongmeng energy, forming this Hongmeng Measuring Ruler.

It was said that the attack power of this Hongmeng Measuring Ruler was almost comparable to Yuanshi Tianzun's Pangu Banner.

Now that this treasure appeared at the twenty-ninth position on the ranking, absolutely no one would question it.

Moments later, the Grand Dao Script appeared:

["Treasure Ranking, twenty-ninth place: Hongmeng Measuring Ruler. Classified as an Acquired Merit Supreme Treasure, protected by Creation Merit, killing without incurring karmic sin, possessing the great power to measure heaven and earth. Master: Sanqi!"]

The countless billions of living beings in the Primordial World, upon seeing the master of the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, immediately trembled violently.

Sanqi?

Wasn't this the unfamiliar Female Saint who had spoken earlier to shelter the human race?

This Hongmeng Measuring Ruler was actually in the hands of that Female Saint?

No wonder she showed not the slightest fear in the face of Goddess Nuwa's threat.

With this treasure in hand.

At the very least, in terms of attack power, she would not fear Nuwa, and might even be slightly stronger than Goddess Nuwa...

Thus, they absolutely had to pay sufficient attention to that unfamiliar Female Saint named Sanqi.

She herself possessed the cultivation of a Saint.

And she had the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler in hand!

Even more importantly, behind this Female Saint stood a mysterious and unfathomable Master...

Everyone recalled that Female Saint who had outshone all of Primordial Hongmeng...

To seek the opportunity to become a Saint from her would likely not be easy...

Each Great Power churned with extremely complicated thoughts.

Many Great Powers settled on the same plan in their hearts.

Once the Hongmeng Purple Gold List passed its current phase.

They would first strike at the Human Race, forcing this Female Saint named Sanqi to show herself...

At that moment, Grand Supreme Old Lord's expression was also extremely grim.

Sanqi held the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler in her hands.

It was precisely the bane of his defenses.

Now that his bane had appeared, how could he not feel his face darken?

From then on, his image of invincibility had developed a flaw.

That flaw lay in Sanqi's hands.

Just as the many Great Powers of Primordial Hongmeng were lost in wild thoughts.

The brilliant light filling the sky once again surged.

Drawing the gaze of everyone present.

They all wanted to see clearly.

What divine artifact could rank above the Cosmos Cauldron and the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler.

This time, the golden light flooding the heavens surged even more violently.

Its scale was also unprecedented.

Many people stared fixedly at the sky above Primordial Hongmeng, tense and excited.

At that moment, the boundless golden light suddenly split into seven parts in the air, dividing into seven portions.

Then, the seven streaks of golden light each evolved into a sky-obscuring image.

Seeing this scene, the crowd of Primordial Hongmeng was instantly stunned.

Seven treasures appearing at once?

Were they tied?

Or was there some other reason?

They saw that the seven colossal images in the sky were actually seven...
