Could it really be true?

If so, wouldn't Grand Supreme Sage have become the biggest winner?

Having eight of his treasures listed on the ranking was truly somewhat unbelievable.

Not to mention anyone else, even Grand Supreme was taken aback when he heard this.

Did he really have eight treasures on the list?

He hadn't really paid much attention.

Then he carefully calculated.

The expression on his face gradually calmed down and looked much better.

Regardless, his position remained unshakable.

After the billions of beings in the Primordial Wilderness came to their senses, they began to tally carefully:

The Coiled Dragon Walking Stick, ranked forty-seventh.

The Wind Fire Mat, ranked forty-first.

The Cosmos Diagram, ranked thirty-eighth.

The Exquisite Pagoda of Heaven and Earth, ranked thirty-first.

The Purple-Gold Gourd, one of the Seven-Colored Gourds, ranked twenty-eighth.

The Eight Scenery Palace Lamp, one of the Six Spirit Lamps, ranked twenty-seventh.

The Southern Li Flame Light Banner, one of the Five Elements Banners, ranked twenty-sixth.

And the Taiji Diagram, ranked twenty-first.

Counting this way, Grand Supreme Sage indeed had eight treasures on the list.

If not for the reminder from that expert named Little Erbi, they would have almost overlooked this entirely.

The artifact section of the Hongmeng Purple Gold List started ranking from the hundredth position.

But because of parallel treasures like the Seven-Colored Gourds, Six Spirit Lamps, and Five Elements Banners, if counted strictly, a total of one hundred and twenty treasures made the list this time.

Among those one hundred and twenty treasures, Grand Supreme Old Lord had eight on the list.

It was truly somewhat unbelievable.

Although some might argue it was due to parallel entries taking advantage of the system, one still had to admire it...

Truly worthy of being the number one expert of the Primordial Wilderness, the foremost leader of the Mystic School.

Everyone was shocked.

"Senior Little Erbi truly has divine foresight..."

"Who would have thought Senior Little Erbi's mind was so clear and penetrating!"

"As expected of Senior Little Erbi, I admire him deeply..."

"This senior truly lives up to the name Little Erbi, making us look up to him with awe."

"Grand Supreme Sage has eight treasures on the list—what about the other sages?"

"Senior Little Erbi, how do the other sages' treasures rank?"

"We earnestly beg Senior Little Erbi to enlighten us..."

For a time, chaotic voices once again resounded across the entire Primordial Wilderness.

At that moment, Sage Zhunti and Guiding Sage of the West on Mount Sumeru of the Western Sect had expressions that turned extremely ugly.

Both were sages, yet they never expected the gap between them to be so vast.

Just the treasures of Grand Supreme Old Lord alone that made the list outnumbered the total of both of theirs combined.

How could this not make the two Western Sages feel humiliated?

The gazes of the two sages also began to flicker.

Once this matter was settled, they would set out to find that person named Yao Yao.

If it turned out to be just an ordinary character, then his Twelfth-Grade World-Cleansing White Lotus would belong to the Western Sect.

After all, the West was barren...

Finally, that person named Little Erbi spoke again:

"Aside from Grand Supreme Sage taking the lead, Primal Sage follows closely behind, with a total of seven treasures on the list!"

These words startled the Primordial Beings...

Primal Sage had seven items on the list?

That many? Only one fewer than Grand Supreme Sage?

They hadn't noticed Primal Sage having so many treasures on the list?

Then the Primordial Beings began counting the treasures of Primal Sage that had made the list.

As Primal Sage felt surprised, he too started tallying his own listed treasures:

Ranked forty-sixth, the Three Treasures Jade Scepter.

Ranked thirty-second, the All Heavens Celebration Cloud.

Ranked twenty-eighth, one of the Seven-Colored Gourds—the Purple-Black Chaos Gourd.

Ranked twenty-seventh, one of the Six Spirit Lamps—the Jade Void Glazed Lamp.

Ranked twenty-sixth, one of the Five Elements Banners—the Central Earth Apricot Yellow Banner.

Ranked twenty-fourth, one of the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Man—the Heavenly Book of Investiture of the Gods.

Ranked twenty-second, the Pangu Banner.

After counting, the Primordial Beings realized that Yuanshi Tianzun indeed had seven treasures on the list.

Only one fewer than Grand Supreme Old Lord.

Truly worthy of being the Chan Sect's Tianzun.

This immediately piqued the interest of the Primordial Beings once more.

"Senior Little Erbi, what about the other sages?"

"How many treasures do the other sages have on the list?"

Everyone eagerly awaited Little Erbi's answer.

The one called Little Erbi pondered briefly, then said: "The third-ranked should be Sage Tongtian, with four treasures on the list. Although Sage Nuwa and Guiding Sage of the West match Sage Tongtian in number, Sage Tongtian's treasures are clearly far more valuable—after all, he has the Four Swords of Zhuxian. Though his listed treasures are few, his combat strength is in no way inferior to Grand Supreme Sage or Primal Sage."

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

Then they began counting Sage Tongtian's treasures:

Ranked forty-eighth, the Qingping Sword.

Ranked thirty-seventh, the Six Souls Banner.

Ranked twenty-eighth, one of the Seven-Colored Gourds—the Purple-Yellow Water-Fire Gourd.

And ranked twentieth, the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

Indeed, four treasures on the list.

Though the number seemed slightly low, Sage Tongtian's listed treasures were no bluff.

All were genuinely powerful artifacts.

And with the Four Swords of Zhuxian in hand.

No one dared underestimate Sage Tongtian.

Everyone couldn't help but admire this person called Little Erbi.

Then Little Erbi's voice rang out again:

"Next are Sage Nuwa and Guiding Sage of the West. Both sages have four treasures on the list. As for who is stronger, you can each judge for yourselves..."

Upon hearing Little Erbi's words, many were stunned.

Then they began counting Guiding Sage of the West's treasures:

Ranked forty-ninth, the Receiver Divine Canopy.

Ranked twenty-seventh, one of the Six Spirit Lamps—the Yin-Yang Sun-Moon Lamp.

Ranked twenty-sixth, one of the Five Elements Banners—the Azure Lotus Treasure Flag.

Ranked twenty-fifth, one of the Four-Sided Lotus Platforms—the Twelfth-Grade Golden Lotus of Merit.

Exactly four divine artifacts, no more, no less.

Then the Primordial Beings began counting Sage Nuwa's treasures:

Ranked thirty-ninth, the Creation Whip.

Ranked thirty-fifth, the Shanhe Sheji Map.

Ranked thirty-third, the Red Embroidered Ball.

Ranked twenty-seventh, one of the Six Spirit Lamps—the Precious Lotus Lamp.

Exactly four treasures, no more, no less.

Both sages had four listed treasures—who was stronger?

Just as the Primordial Beings were making their secret comparisons, a voice of extreme clarity suddenly rang out across heaven and earth.

"Daoist Little Erbi, how many treasures has Sage Zhunti listed on the board? Tell everyone!"

Hearing this, the crowd was stunned for a moment, then their faces twisted with odd expressions.

This voice was extremely familiar.

It was the same voice that had earlier cursed Yuanshi Tianzun outright.

Wasn't this person none other than Taoist Randeng, who had long since fled?

Who would have thought that Taoist Randeng would chime in now—probably still holding a grudge, right?

After all, the very first person to mock Taoist Randeng was Sage Zhunti.

At this moment, everyone felt something was off.

At the same time, curiosity stirred within them.

They wondered just how many treasures Sage Zhunti had actually listed on the board.

It had been a long while since they'd heard Sage Zhunti's name...

Everyone pricked up their ears, waiting in silence for Daoist Little Erbi's reply.

And sure enough, after a brief moment, Little Erbi's voice rang out:
