So it really was this treasure...

Everyone marveled in secret.

Their guesses had indeed been correct.

Since the Three Treasures of Creation had all appeared,

the next would be the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

Sure enough,

what manifested amid the golden light filling the sky were precisely the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

The four immortal swords in the air respectively emitted black, white, azure, and crimson light.

Especially that unparalleled Sword Qi, which pointed straight at the heavens.

It even seemed poised to cleave the sky apart.

Several words were engraved upon the hilts of the four differently colored immortal swords.

Zhuxian Sword, Lixian Sword, Xianxian Sword, Juexian Sword!

These four swords possessed peerless killing intent.

When united, they were universally acknowledged as the Primordial World's foremost killing treasure.

Moreover, they were bolstered by the Primordial World's greatest divine formation, the Zhuxian Sword Formation.

The Four Swords of Zhuxian, combined with the Zhuxian Sword Formation,

were absolutely the most powerful offensive force in the Primordial World.

It was said that no fewer than four Sages could break it.

This alone showed just how formidable the Four Swords of Zhuxian were when paired with the Zhuxian Sword Formation.

["Treasure Ranking, twentieth place: Four Swords of Zhuxian! Primordial Treasure. When these four swords hang inverted in the air, their Sword Qi can overturn heaven and earth. With a flash of sword light, even immortals tempered through ten thousand tribulations cannot escape this calamity. There was once a praise for these treasured swords: 'Neither bronze nor iron, nor yet steel, once hidden beneath Mount Sumeru. Untempered by inverted yin and yang, how could water and fire hone such brilliance? Zhuxian is sharp, Lixian brings death, Xianxian raises crimson light in every direction. Juexian's transformations are endlessly wondrous; even Great Luo immortals stain their robes with blood. Owner: Tongtian!'"]

Hiss...

Everyone drew a sharp breath.

They truly were the legendary Four Swords of Zhuxian.

Their power was simply unparalleled.

The Four Swords of Zhuxian were absolutely beyond imagination.

"Senior Little Erbi, between the Four Swords of Zhuxian and the Pangu Banner, which one is more powerful?"

A voice rang throughout the heavens and earth of the Primordial World.

The Primordial Great Being known as Little Erbi replied with extreme disdain:

"Do you even need to ask?"

"Then tell us already! Which one is stronger?"

The mocking expression on Little Erbi's face grew ever more pronounced, his nostrils practically pointing at the sky.

"Logically speaking, the Pangu Banner was formed from the blade of Pangu's axe, so its origins are greater. However, the Four Swords of Zhuxian were forged by Demon Ancestor Rahu after refining the fortune of the entire Western Primordial World, along with the bloodlines of countless gods and demons. If we are speaking strictly of offensive power, they are likely not far apart."

"Yet the Four Swords of Zhuxian also work with the Zhuxian Sword Formation. In that case, the Pangu Banner falls somewhat short..."

"After all, once they are used together, no fewer than four Sages can break them... Naturally, the Four Swords of Zhuxian are stronger... That is why they rank higher..."

"Hiss... As expected of Senior Little Erbi! That makes sense! It truly makes sense!"

"Senior Little Erbi is indeed knowledgeable..."

"Who exactly is this great figure, Little Erbi? How does he possess such insight..."

"Little Erbi is truly admirable... What great person is he?"

"Senior Little Erbi is indeed a role model for us cultivators. This humble one admires you, admires you..."

"..."

For a time, the entire Primordial World resounded with praise for Little Erbi.

These voices made the faces of many Primordial Great Beings twitch uncontrollably.

"Senior Little Erbi, then tell us what kind of treasure could rank ahead of the Four Swords of Zhuxian?"

"That's right. Even a Primordial Treasure like the Four Swords of Zhuxian only ranks twentieth. What sort of treasures lie ahead of them?"

"Senior Little Erbi, please enlighten us... The suspense is killing me..."

"Senior Little Erbi, please do not hesitate to instruct us..."

Before long, many Primordial Great Beings began asking Senior Little Erbi to guess the treasures ranked above them.

Hearing the flattery from so many Primordial Great Beings, the person known as Senior Little Erbi could not help feeling somewhat pleased with himself.

"According to my guess... the one ranked above the Four Swords of Zhuxian is probably the legendary God-Devouring Spear..."

"God-Slaying Spear?"

The moment Little Erbi spoke, everyone was shocked.

They had never expected Senior Little Erbi to mention that name.

"Senior Little Erbi is guessing the God-Slaying Spear?"

"Hadn't that Demonic Path supreme treasure already disappeared?"

"Could it be real? They say that Demonic Path treasure had already shattered into fragments. It should no longer exist, right?"

At that instant, everyone's thoughts were opened up by the man named Little Erbi.

If that treasure still existed,

then it truly might rank above the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

After all, even Demon Ancestor Rahu's name had appeared. It was not impossible for the God-Slaying Spear to reappear in the world.

The Purple-Gold Qi atop the firmament began boiling once more.

When that treasure manifested,

all living beings of the Primordial World erupted into an uproar again.

Little Erbi's guess had been correct down to the slightest detail.

The one ranked above the Four Swords of Zhuxian was precisely the long-lost God-Slaying Spear...

Then Grand Dao Script descended.

["Treasure Ranking, nineteenth place: God-Slaying Spear. A Primordial Treasure. A supreme treasure of the Demonic Path. Formed from the stem of the World-Creating Pure Lotus, it mutated after absorbing all the baleful energy of the entire Chaotic World. The foremost demonic weapon beneath heaven and earth, peerless in slaughter. Owner: Rahu!"]

"Boom...!"

After the Grand Dao Script appeared, the entire Primordial World instantly boiled over.

The whole Primordial World could no longer remain calm.

Countless Primordial beings stared wide-eyed at the information revealed on the ranking, utterly dumbfounded.

Not only had Demon Ancestor Rahu appeared,

but even the God-Slaying Spear had appeared intact.

Could it be that he had not been killed by Grandmaster Hongjun?

Had he been hiding in secret all along?

If so... the Primordial World was in danger.

At this moment, the entire Primordial World was completely thrown into turmoil.

Many Primordial beings found it difficult to accept this outcome.

Sage Tongtian of Biyou Palace on Golden Turtle Island wore an exceptionally grim expression.

"I never expected that fellow to have not fallen, and to have remained hidden within the Primordial World all this time... If that is the case..."

Sage Tongtian muttered to himself, then his expression shifted slightly.

He hurriedly put away the Four Swords of Zhuxian floating beside him.

Rahu had not perished... and still possessed the God-Slaying Spear... At the very least, that meant most of Rahu's combat power remained... In that case, his Four Swords of Zhuxian might not be safe...

Within Jade Void Palace, Yuanshi Tianzun's expression was equally ugly.

Back then, even their teacher, Dao Ancestor Hongjun, had not been a match for this man.

He had needed to join forces with Ancestor Yin Yang, Great Immortal Yang Mei, and others to defeat him.

Yet this man had not died.

Now, the God-Slaying Spear was still in his hands... Perhaps he could make a comeback at any moment.

"The Primordial World is about to fall into chaos..."

Just as the countless living beings of the Primordial World were gripped by fear,

another treasure manifested in the sky.

It looked like a fan-shaped treasure.

"What is that?"

"It actually ranks above the God-Slaying Spear?"

"It is a fan?"

"Senior Little Erbi, what is this?"

"Please clear up our doubts, Senior Little Erbi..."

At this moment, many Primordial Great Beings thought of Senior Little Erbi once again.

They hurriedly asked Senior Little Erbi about it.

At that moment, the man known as Senior Little Erbi burst into curses.

"I already said it, I am just a little idiot. How could I know so much? Why are you asking a little idiot like me instead of asking the Sages? Do you think the Sages are inferior to a little idiot like me?"

"..."

Everyone was speechless.

Who would dare ask the Sages?

After all, the Sages were currently furious.

Nearly all of the Sages' powerful treasures had appeared on the ranking.

Without exception, every one of them ranked after twentieth place.

With rankings so poor, they were naturally immensely enraged.

At that moment, the voice in the sky rang out once more:

"If you have questions, go ask the Grand Supreme Sage. The Grand Supreme Sage is the biggest winner—he has eight treasures on the ranking..."

Hearing Little Erbi's words, everyone froze.

Grand Supreme Old Lord had eight treasures on the ranking?
