At this moment, everyone was waiting for the Mystic Treasure Chart to continue its rankings.
The entire Primordial World was vast and boundless.
To ordinary cultivators, it was practically infinite.
Perhaps some unknown treasures really were hidden within it.
Nearly every living being had their eyes fixed on the Hongmeng Purple Gold List, which blotted out the heavens and covered the earth.
The rankings had now been revealed down to the fifties.
Most of the treasures that had shaken the Primordial World had already appeared.
Yet more than fifty spots still remained unrevealed.
That was rather thought-provoking.
Everyone's curiosity grew ever stronger.
One after another, they wore tense expressions.
Many were also discussing it among themselves.
"Among the treasures revealed so far, aside from those belonging to Sage disciples, many are in the hands of the Demon Race. Perhaps the Demon Race will be the protagonists of the future..."
"Do not speak nonsense. As everyone knows, the Sorcerer Race is far more powerful than the Demon Race now. The Sorcerer Race is born with flawed primordial spirits, but their physical bodies are immensely powerful. If a Physical Body Ranking is revealed in the future, the Sorcerer Race will surely steal the limelight. It is far too early to claim that the Demon Race will rule the Primordial World."
Upon hearing this, another person promptly fell silent.
After all, the great powers of the Demon Race and Sorcerer Race were still watching. If he offended them, even some minor lackey they sent would be enough to make him suffer.
"I wonder if you've noticed that nearly all the treasures famed throughout the Primordial World have already appeared... Yet there are still over fifty vacant spots ahead. What exactly is going on?"
This was clearly another great power. As soon as he spoke, he immediately struck a chord with the other great powers.
It was indeed true, and quite thought-provoking.
"I truly hope the rankings are revealed soon. I can hardly wait to find out what treasures are still hidden in the Primordial World..."
"If the owner lacks sufficient backing or strength, once they are exposed, they will surely invite a fatal disaster. Perhaps another bloody storm will rise across the Primordial World then..."
Amid everyone's discussions,
the Mystic Treasure Chart continued revealing its entries one by one.
At last, it reached the fifty-first place.
Everyone trembled with excitement.
After this treasure was revealed,
the top fifty of the Primordial Treasure Chart would begin.
Only then would the true clash of peaks begin.
Another golden radiance from the enormous Hongmeng Purple Gold List descended through the air.
As this golden light manifested in the sky, it finally revealed a ruler-shaped treasure.
This ruler was somewhat peculiar. It looked a little like a ruler, yet also somewhat like a jade blade.
The crowd immediately cried out upon seeing it.
This ruler was simply too famous. Many had guessed that it could at least rank among the top twenty... perhaps even contend for a place in the top ten.
Yet they had never expected it to rank only fifty-first...
That was simply unimaginable.
Many people groaned in anguish inwardly.
The boundless admiration they had held for this treasure also dimmed.
Could it be that this treasure was not as powerful as the legends claimed?
Was it merely impressive in appearance?
This left them deeply disappointed.
Even the owner of this ruler was greatly disappointed after seeing it ranked fifty-first, his face faintly turning pale.
He had placed immense hopes on this treasure.
This treasure had never disappointed him either.
Since ancient times, it had followed him in slaying countless enemies.
In his heart, this treasure should have securely ranked among the top fifteen... perhaps even had a chance to enter the top ten.
Yet it had unexpectedly ranked only fifty-first, with such a low standing...
It was truly beyond his imagination.
Just as the great powers of heaven and earth erupted in an uproar,
a strand of Innate Purple Qi appeared, followed by Grand Dao Script emerging in the void:
["Treasure Ranking, fifty-first place: Cosmos Ruler. A Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. The Cosmos Ruler contains a strand of Cosmos Qi, formed from the union of the world's yin and yang, representing the world's yin and yang! It possesses Divine Power capable of shaking the Primordial World and can even overturn the Primordial World's yin and yang for a short time. Owner: Burning Lamp!"]
After seeing the Grand Dao Script's description of this treasure, the chattering crowd was utterly dumbfounded.
Then they gradually erupted once more.
The legendary Cosmos Ruler was not weak at all. It could even be called absurdly powerful.
It possessed Divine Power capable of shaking the Primordial World and could overturn its yin and yang for a short time.
Could such a treasure be called weak?
That would be the greatest joke in the world.
Yet such a treasure had only ranked fifty-first on the Treasure Ranking?
Was that not far too inconceivable?
Could there be something wrong with the authority of this ranking?
Everyone's expressions darkened uncertainly as doubts arose in their hearts.
Yet after doubting it, everyone shook their heads again.
This Hongmeng Purple Gold List could repair the Heavenly Vault, contend against the Six Great Sages, and had even injured Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
There was no way the rankings it produced could be false.
With that, the matter became clear.
There were a full fifty treasures in the Primordial World whose power far surpassed the Cosmos Ruler.
Just as everyone in the Primordial World marveled,
an incomparably thunderous voice resounded through heaven and earth.
The voice came from Taoist Randeng:
"The Cosmos Ruler only ranks fifty-first? I refuse to accept this..."
This voice was extraordinarily loud.
It could practically be said to echo throughout the entire Primordial Land, and everyone heard it clearly.
I refuse to accept this...
I refuse to accept this...
Refuse...
Everyone looked at Taoist Randeng with sympathy.
The truth was indeed so.
The Cosmos Ruler was already powerful to such an extent that it could be called monstrous.
To overturn the Primordial World's yin and yang for a short time—what a terrifying ability that was!
Yet even though the Cosmos Ruler was so powerful, it still ranked fifty-first...
It truly made him worthy of sympathy.
At that moment, another incomparably loud voice resounded through heaven and earth:
"Daoist Randeng, do not be hasty. Let us see how the subsequent treasure rankings unfold..."
"This Hongmeng Purple Gold List possesses such might. The authority of the rankings it produces surely cannot be false..."
The speaker was Zhen Yuanzi, who had some friendship with Burning Lamp...
He sounded as though he were comforting Burning Lamp, but his tone was somewhat strange.
There was even a heavy trace of gloating in it.
As soon as these words were spoken, several mocking laughs faintly rang out across heaven and earth.
Taoist Randeng was one of the Innate Lifeforms and was immensely powerful himself.
Later, he attended lectures at the Purple Cloud Palace three times and was one of the Three Thousand Red Dust Guests.
Even throughout the Primordial World, aside from the Sages, he was one of the strongest beings.
Yet the rankings of the two powerful treasures in his possession were both low.
One of them, the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, had only ranked one hundredth.
The second treasure on which he had placed great hopes, the Cosmos Ruler, had only ranked fifty-first as well.
Naturally, some people would mock him in such circumstances.
Upon hearing those voices, Taoist Randeng's face suddenly darkened.
These people actually dared mock him?
They were truly detestable.
His lips parted slightly, as though he wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing.
Instead, he stared gloomily at the sky.
He wanted to see carefully what treasures ranked ahead of his. What gave them the right to rank above the Cosmos Ruler?
If the treasure ranked fiftieth could not surpass the Cosmos Ruler,
then it would be enough to prove that this ranking was nothing more than a joke.
At that moment, the dense Purple-Gold Qi in the sky began boiling once more.
Seeing this movement, everyone grew excited, their eyes widening as they stared fixedly upward...
