"This is... a staff?"

Everyone exchanged bewildered glances.

The vast golden light coalescing in the air had clearly taken the form of a staff-type treasure...

This oddly shaped staff was crafted from an unknown wood.

At its top was carved an immensely majestic and imposing dragon head.

The staff spun endlessly in midair, displaying its boundless splendor...

A moment later, a wisp of purple aura spread through the air, manifesting several lines of Grand Dao Script:

["Treasure Ranking, ninety-eighth place: Dragon Head Staff, ranked as a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. This staff suppresses the countless dragon spirits of antiquity. Once unleashed, it wields the power of ten thousand dragons roaring. Master: Lord of the East!"]

As these Grand Dao Script characters appeared, everyone drew in another sharp breath.

The personal treasure of the Lord of the East, leader of all male immortals, was only ranked ninety-eighth?

Wasn't that position far too low?

Throughout the entire Primordial World, few treasures could surpass the Dragon Head Staff.

Yet it was merely placed at ninety-eighth.

The Lord of the East's expression also darkened.

He had originally believed that with this Dragon Head Staff, he would surely rank among the top.

Now it seemed he had only barely made the list!

Still, since the Dragon Head Staff could rank within the top hundred of the Primordial Chart, it was barely acceptable...

Another beam of golden light illuminated heaven and earth, manifesting creation.

It transformed into a gleaming, enormous pair of scissors, their cold, sharp gleam enough to make anyone pale.

["Treasure Ranking, ninety-seventh place: Golden Dragon Scissors! These scissors were formed from two demonic dragons, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, drawing on the essence of the sun and moon, comprehending the aura of metal sharpness. They twist and turn in the air, heads meeting like blades, tails intertwining like strands. Even a perfected immortal would inevitably be cut in two. Masters: Three Heavens Maidens!"]

When the people of Golden Turtle Island, Biyou Palace, saw this treasure appear, a chorus of exclamations erupted.

It was the treasure of Junior Sister Three Heavens Maidens—their Golden Dragon Scissors had made the list.

Immediately, a wave of congratulations arose.

Three peerless beauties with identical features accepted the praise, joy gleaming in their eyes.

As this treasure appeared, another wave of astonishment swept across the Primordial Land.

The Golden Dragon Scissors were no ordinary artifact. Their most unique trait was being formed from two demonic dragons, capable of self-cultivation. As time passed, this treasure's power would only grow stronger.

Many stared intently at the golden scissors in the sky.

Greed flickered in their eyes.

Who were the Three Heavens Maidens? They didn't know—perhaps some unknown figures.

If the chance arose, they would surely kill and seize the treasure.

Many harbored such thoughts, their greed deepening.

Just then, that mischievous voice rang out across heaven and earth once more:

"The Three Heavens Maidens are three peerless beauties: Cloud Heaven, Jade Heaven, and Crimson Heaven, hence the collective name. Their cultivation is at the peak of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, and they are disciples of Sage Tongtian. If anyone has the ambition, they may try their luck—not only to obtain the treasure but also to win the beauties..."

Hearing these teasing words, silence once again fell over heaven and earth...

Though a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal was nothing in the vast, unfathomable Primordial Land teeming with experts.

The key issue was that they were disciples of a sage.

Who would dare offend Sage Tongtian, known for his extreme protectiveness?

As the saying goes: Beneath a sage, all are ants.

Before a sage, anyone was nothing more than an ant. Who would dare act recklessly?

At the same time, many felt anger toward that teasing voice.

Whoever that fellow was, he was truly detestable.

Time and again, he exposed people's hidden thoughts, leaving them both embarrassed and furious.

A moment later, the golden light in the sky surged once more.

A blade-shaped treasure appeared between heaven and earth.

["Treasure Ranking, ninety-sixth place: Ghostly Chariot Sky-Piercing Blade, ranked as a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. Though a spiritual treasure, it is in truth a great evil artifact. It harms not only others but also its master. Unmatched in slaughter, it wields the might to pierce the heavens. Master: Ghostly Chariot!"]

"That demon blade of Ghostly Chariot?"

Emperor Jun on the Heavenly Court murmured to himself upon hearing this. Though somewhat surprised, he was also pleased.

Ghostly Chariot was one of the ten great generals of the Demon Race, now at the Quasi-Sage realm, making him a capable lieutenant.

That demon blade in his hands was indeed immensely powerful.

For it to make it onto this ranking was clearly Ghostly Chariot's fortune as well.

When the people of the Wu Clan heard the name Ghostly Chariot, each and every one of them gnashed their teeth in hatred. Many Great Shamans had suffered hidden losses at Ghostly Chariot's hands, and now that his name appeared on the Mystic Treasure Chart, it naturally filled them with extreme loathing.

["Mystic Treasure Chart, Ninety-Fifth: Haotian Mirror. The Haotian Mirror is a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. It can illuminate the Nine Heavens, pierce through falsehoods, and see through all demons and monsters. Master: Haotian!"]

When this treasure appeared, the entire Primordial World gasped in astonishment once more. Haotian was merely an Attendant of Dao Ancestor Hongjun. After Dao Ancestor Hongjun merged with the Dao, the Purple Cloud Palace was left in the care of Haotian and Jade Pool. No one could have imagined that a mere Attendant would possess such a powerful treasure. This truly made many great powers of the Primordial World feel disgraced. After all, over three thousand people had gone to the Purple Cloud Palace to hear the Dao Ancestor preach, yet it was this Attendant who had stolen a march on them.

["Mystic Treasure Chart, Ninety-Fourth: Pure Emerald Bottle. It is a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, possessing the power to purify all things in the world. It is the bane of all dark and evil forces, capable of turning mortals into immortals and transforming decay into miracle. Master: Perfected Being Cihang!"]

["Mystic Treasure Chart, Eightieth: Nine Dragons Fire Shroud. It is a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. Within the Nine Dragons Fire Shroud is nurtured a unique space that cultivates nine Primordial Divine Fire seeds. Once released, it possesses the might to burn mountains and boil seas, capable of scorching the entire Primordial World. Master: Perfected Being Taiyi."]

["Mystic Treasure Chart, Seventieth: Sea-Quelling Pearls. They are Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, twenty-four in total. Each one possesses the power to encompass the Four Seas. When all twenty-four are unleashed together, they hold a power unfathomable to gods and ghosts. Master: Zhao Gongming!"]

["Mystic Treasure Chart, Sixtieth: Sun-Moon Purple Gold Bell. It is a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. Shake it once and divine fire emerges; shake it twice and divine smoke appears; shake it thrice and it stirs up flying sand and rolling stones, darkening heaven and earth. It possesses the Divine Power to blow darkness into the world and flash terror into gods and ghosts. Master: Sai Taisui."]

As each treasure manifested, piece after piece of information continuously appeared. The exclamations across the entire Primordial World grew more and more pronounced, and the voices became louder and louder. Clearly, the higher the ranking, the more intense the emotions of the living beings became. Not only did it feast their eyes, but it also broadened their horizons. The moment those great powers' supreme treasures made their debut, every single one of them could astonish the masses. Yet a doubt also rose in their hearts. The treasures on the chart were either those of the saints' disciples or those of the great powers of the Demon Race. The treasures that shook the Primordial World had almost all appeared by now... What treasures were left? Were there still many unknown treasures hidden away? Which were stronger and which were weaker? With such thoughts in their hearts, everyone's anticipation grew ever higher.

In an extremely mysterious valley somewhere in the Primordial World, there stood a massive, magnificent, and resplendent hall. The plaque on the hall's gate bore three large characters: "Heaven's Mystery Pavilion." Inside the hall at that moment, an exceedingly handsome man was reclining sideways on a large chair with a sinister charm. Wearing a wicked expression, he drank fine wine, utterly carefree. By his side was a woman in red robes. That woman in red was incomparably enchanting, with a breathtaking beauty that could captivate all beings! At this moment, the woman in red was earnestly playing the zither. The sound of the zither was sometimes ethereal, like silk floss in the wind; sometimes its deep notes were steady, like pines clinging to a cliff. Sometimes the notes were stirring, sometimes the tones were hollow and vast. In the very center of the hall stood another woman, dressed in a black gauze. This woman was a nation-toppling beauty, with bright eyes and white teeth, and a brow adorned with a painting of the other shore flower that was breathtakingly peerless. Her seductive eyes were filled with tenderness. At that moment, she was dancing gracefully to the zither's melody, her black gauze dress fluttering in the wind, like a fairy—a fairy untouched by the mundane world, so mysterious, so pure, that one did not wish to disturb or defile her. Truly, she was a woman whose beauty outshone the entire Primordial World. At that moment, she stopped her dancing steps and said to the man lounging sideways: "Master, that Scroll of yours has run off to make mischief. Should we take it back?" The sinisterly charming man replied with slight displeasure: "Why bother with it? Continue the music, continue the dance!" The woman in black gauze pouted playfully. Then, she began to dance once more...
