The Creation Jade Tablet's True Owner

The Purple-Gold Qi in the air grew increasingly dense.

Only after a long, long time did it finally condense with great difficulty into a treasure.

This treasure was a massive circular disc.

Strange and bizarre light glimmered across the disc, making it impossible to see clearly.

The moment this treasure appeared,

it was as though a volcano had suddenly erupted beneath a thousand zhang of frozen ice.

The entire Primordial World was thrown into an uproar.

Countless people cried out in shock.

A trace of fear seemed to spread through the air.

"This... this is the Creation Jade Tablet..."

"Why has it appeared so early?"

"Such a powerful Creation Jade Tablet is only ranked eighth?"

"I never expected the Creation Jade Tablet's true form to be a disc..."

"It's over... my faith has collapsed..."

"The Primordial World is doomed... the strongest treasure is only ranked eighth..."

At this moment, all living beings in the Primordial World fell into chaos.

Not to mention these later generations of the Primordial World.

Even among the Innate Lifeforms,

few had ever seen the Creation Jade Tablet.

Yet that did not affect their yearning for it.

The Creation Jade Tablet had even become their faith.

No one had expected it to reveal itself at this moment.

After all, it was the most renowned treasure in the Primordial World.

It was truly unimaginable.

The treasure that had made Dao Ancestor Hongjun what he was.

It was hailed as the number one treasure of the Primordial World.

Yet it had appeared when the ranking had only reached eighth place...

That meant all seven treasures before it surpassed the Creation Jade Tablet.

Just then, Grand Dao Script appeared.

["Eighth Place on the Treasure Ranking: Creation Jade Tablet. A supreme Chaos Treasure. It possesses the Power of Wuji of Chaos Law. It records the true essence of all life. Wuji transforms into ten thousand Daos, and it is the source of all Daos. Owner: Chang Kong. (Hongjun)"]

Starting with the Creation Jade Tablet, the Treasure Ranking had risen to another level.

From one hundredth place to twenty-fourth place, every treasure had been a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

From twenty-third place to ninth place, every treasure had been a Primordial Treasure.

Now, beginning with eighth place, they had all become supreme Chaos Treasures.

Yet the Creation Jade Tablet, itself a Chaos Treasure, was only ranked eighth.

In other words, there were at least seven Chaos Treasures ahead of it...

It was truly unbelievable.

Everyone knew that there had once been three Chaos Treasures in the Primordial World.

They were the Heaven-Opening Axe,

the World-Creating Pure Lotus,

and the Creation Jade Tablet.

After opening the heavens, the Heaven-Opening Axe had transformed into three Primordial Treasures.

The World-Creating Pure Lotus had also transformed into countless Innate Spiritual Treasures.

The Creation Jade Tablet had likewise been shattered into fragments.

But compared to the others, the Creation Jade Tablet had retained some of the power of a Chaos Treasure.

Thus, all living beings in the Primordial World had always believed that the Creation Jade Tablet was the foremost of all treasures.

Yet it had appeared at eighth place...

That meant

several treasures had remained hidden all along, never known to anyone.

The living beings of the Primordial World also came to understand the difference between Chaos Treasures and Primordial Treasures.

The power of Chaos Treasures was Chaos Law.

The power of Primordial Treasures and Innate Spiritual Treasures, on the other hand, was the Grand Dao.

Chaos Law was naturally stronger than the Grand Dao...

Just then, the living beings of the Primordial World suddenly noticed that the owner of the Creation Jade Tablet was named Chang Kong.

Hongjun's name came after Chang Kong's.

This discovery immediately stunned all living beings of the Primordial World.

What was going on?

The Creation Jade Tablet was clearly in Dao Ancestor Hongjun's possession.

Why did the owner field display Chang Kong instead?

Where was the problem?

All living beings in the Primordial World were left parched and speechless.

At this moment, the person named Little Erbi spoke again:

"The Chaos Treasure Creation Jade Tablet has already been shattered into fragments. Most of the fragments must be in the hands of this person called Chang Kong. Perhaps the twenty-four fragments in Dao Ancestor Hongjun's possession are only a small portion..."

"Is that so?"

Only then did the countless living beings of the Primordial World react.

It really could be as Little Erbi had said.

Most of the fragments were in the hands of that person named Chang Kong.

Only a small portion was in Dao Ancestor Hongjun's hands.

At this moment, the entire Primordial World erupted into an unprecedented frenzy.

Everyone had thought Dao Ancestor Hongjun's Creation Jade Tablet would surely be ranked first.

They had never imagined that it would appear at merely eighth place.

And the Creation Jade Tablet's true owner was not even Dao Ancestor Hongjun!

This was rather awkward...

In the Heavenly Court, both Di Jun and Taiyi wore cold sneers.

The two had always been dissatisfied with the Dao Ancestor.

Because when the Dao Ancestor had preached the Dao, he had bestowed the Opportunity to Become a Sage upon others.

As a result, the two of them had lacked the Opportunity to Become a Sage.

They had held a grudge ever since.

Now that this change had occurred,

they actually felt secretly pleased.

Inside the Ancestral Witch Grand Hall, the Twelve Ancestral Witches were also sneering.

This Primordial World had been created by their Father God.

After Father God's death, this Dao Ancestor Hongjun had actually lorded over the Primordial World.

How could that not leave a knot in their hearts?

Especially during the previous decisive battle between the Witch and Demon Clans, they had nearly defeated the demon clan.

Yet this Dao Ancestor had intervened to stop them.

It truly filled them with resentment.

This ranking naturally made them secretly delighted.

Apart from the Witch and Demon Clans, the several Sages also looked at one another in dismay.

Thirty-Three Heavens.

Within the Purple Cloud Palace, which was permeated by an aura of Chaos,

two attendants were also dumbfounded.

These two attendants were Haotian and Jade Pool!

After their teacher had merged his incarnation with the Dao, the Purple Cloud Palace had been watched over by the two of them.

At this moment, before Haotian and Jade Pool stood an elderly man with white hair and beard, his expression gloomy.

This person was Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Ever since Dao Ancestor Hongjun had merged his incarnation with the Dao, he had not appeared for a long time.

Yet he had unexpectedly returned to the Purple Cloud Palace now.

Although Dao Ancestor Hongjun's hair and beard were white,

his bearing was extraordinary, his brows like stars and his eyes sharp as swords, handsome and refined.

Every gesture of his carried the flowing Dao rhythm of the Grand Dao.

Yet at this moment, Dao Ancestor Hongjun's face was exceedingly pale, making him appear extremely weak.

When Jade Pool and Haotian looked down,

they suddenly cried out in horror.

A large bloodstain was visible across Dao Ancestor Hongjun's chest.

The bloodstain seemed to emit a black glow...

Clearly, Dao Ancestor Hongjun's injuries were severe.

"Dao Ancestor, what happened to you?"

Haotian and Jade Pool hurried forward to support him.

With their support, the Dao Ancestor took his seat at the highest position.

"It is nothing! You may both leave for now!"

At this moment, Dao Ancestor Hongjun stared grimly at the Creation Jade Tablet in the sky.

Beneath those emotionless, placid eyes lay a chill of ice.

"I had thought everything in the Primordial World was already within my grasp..."

"Yet so many unexpected changes have arisen..."

"Not only has Rahu returned..."

"Some other messy Sages have also appeared..."

"This fellow named Chang Kong... is no easy opponent either..."

"I never expected the Creation Jade Tablet in my possession to be only a small portion..."

"It seems... a new challenge has appeared..."

Holding a fragment of the Creation Jade Tablet, Dao Ancestor Hongjun gazed down upon the entire Primordial World.

At this moment,

he once again became the supreme Dao Ancestor!

He ruled over the countless living beings of the Primordial World.

He was a supreme existence...

After a moment, he raised his head and gazed at the Hongmeng Purple Gold List in the sky.

"What exactly is this thing? Its power is so formidable? It not only injured me, but also blocked my Heavenly Dao Will..."

After pondering for a long time, he still found no answer.

Dao Ancestor Hongjun then quietly sat in the highest seat, closing his eyes in contemplation.

At that moment, another disturbance arose in the sky.
