It was precisely because Bai Yu could not see through it that he found it so astonishing.
This was a jackpot!
His opportunity had arrived!
Bai Yu took a step forward, tore through space, and arrived directly at the Sunken Sea Ruins.
The law storm that had formed from the disorderly laws fell silent the instant Bai Yu descended, then dissipated.
The chaotic laws calmed down and returned to their original order.
The Sunken Sea Ruins also sank into eternal silence—dim, oppressive, and devoid of light.
Only the triangular flag with half its flagpole missing emitted a faint glow.
As for the jade pearl wrapped within the flag, though it was covered in cracks, it remained profoundly mysterious. Bone-chilling cold spread from the cracks in its surface.
That boundless chill was even colder than the Sunken Sea Ruins themselves.
That endless cold made even Bai Yu, who was empowered by three thousand Source Laws, feel chilled to the bone. He could not help but shiver.
This was undoubtedly abnormal.
Yet it filled Bai Yu with immense delight.
He had originally thought that the flag he could not see through would be the only gain from this trip. Who would have thought there would be an even greater harvest!
Even Bai Yu found its chill bone-piercing. This was clearly a power stronger than the power of laws.
And what power was stronger than the power of laws?
Only the power of the Great Dao!
This cracked pearl that emitted bone-chilling cold definitely contained a Source Great Dao!
That Dark Flag which he could not see through likewise contained a Source Great Dao!
And a treasure containing a Source Great Dao was a Great Dao Treasure!
With a wave of his hand, the flag and pearl flew directly before Bai Yu. Both shone brilliantly, their mysteries boundless.
Awakened by the power of Bai Yu's Source Laws, the two supreme treasures gradually revived.
Great Dao radiance spread out, and boundless Great Dao pressure began to emerge, causing the Sunken Sea Ruins, which had just settled down, to churn once more.
The Source Laws of this world, which Bai Yu had originally suppressed and controlled, instantly descended into chaos. They became incomparably restless, as if they had encountered something unimaginably terrifying.
The gradual revival of these two treasures also signified that Bai Yu's refinement progress was slowly increasing.
Bai Yu was refining these two supreme treasures.
At the same time, Bai Yu discovered that his Yin-Yang Laws and Devouring Laws were even more restless than his other laws.
This also made Bai Yu realize that these two supreme treasures likely contained the Yin-Yang Great Dao and the Devouring Great Dao.
Unfortunately, each contained only one Source Great Dao, and they were incomplete ones at that.
Then, according to the artifact grading system of the Grand Primordial Cosmos, they could only be Innate Spiritual Treasures.
The treasures of the Grand Primordial Cosmos were divided into spiritual treasures and supreme treasures, each further categorized as acquired or innate.
Innate Spiritual Treasures contained incomplete Source Great Daos.
Innate Supreme Treasures, on the other hand, contained complete Source Great Daos.
Depending on their capabilities, they might contain one or multiple Source Great Daos.
For example, the Chaos Bell, one of the three great Innate Supreme Treasures and a sacred artifact of creation, possessed the might to suppress the worlds of the heavens, the power to reverse all time and space, the ability to unravel the mysteries of the Heavenly Dao, and the capacity to refine earth, water, fire, and wind.
Its chimes were vast, the heavens resplendent; heaven and earth lost their color, and Qiankun trembled.
With such boundless profundity and infinite creative power, how could it possibly contain only one Source Great Dao?
Therefore, whether Innate Spiritual Treasures or Innate Supreme Treasures, both could contain multiple Source Great Daos.
The reason Innate Spiritual Treasures could not compare to Innate Supreme Treasures was that the former contained only incomplete Great Daos, while the latter contained complete Great Daos!
Naturally, the gap between them was obvious.
In the past, Pangu opened the heavens within chaos, slew three thousand Chaos Godsfiends, and created the Grand Primordial Cosmos!
The bodies of those slain Chaos Godsfiends became nourishment for the Grand Primordial Cosmos, nurturing heaven, earth, and all living beings.
As for the Chaos Godsfiends' companion supreme treasures, they either perished completely or shattered into countless Great Dao fragments.
After being absorbed, refined, and transformed by the Primordial Wilderness, these Great Dao fragments became one innate treasure after another.
Because they were all incomplete fragments, they could not form Innate Supreme Treasures and could only become Innate Spiritual Treasures.
Containing ten percent of a Source Great Dao made it a Low-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Containing thirty percent of a Source Great Dao made it a Mid-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Containing fifty percent of a Source Great Dao made it a High-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Containing seventy percent of a Source Great Dao made it a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Containing a complete Source Great Dao made it an Innate Supreme Treasure!
Whether it was an Innate Spiritual Treasure or an Innate Supreme Treasure, whether it contained an incomplete Great Dao or a complete Great Dao, as long as it contained the power of a Source Great Dao, it could be called a Great Dao Treasure!
The Great Dao stood supreme. Even an incomplete Great Dao was an incomparably rare supreme treasure across the myriad worlds of the heavens!
Thanks to the contributions of the three thousand Chaos Godsfiends, the Grand Primordial Cosmos was naturally incomparably formidable.
Though it had not obtained the complete Source Great Daos of every Chaos Godsfiend, it had absorbed all of their incomplete Great Daos.
Furthermore, Pangu had held up the heavens and transformed his body into all things, allowing the Grand Primordial Cosmos to inherit nearly all of Pangu's legacy.
The Grand Primordial Cosmos possessed only three Innate Supreme Treasures: the Taiji Diagram, Pangu Banner, and Chaos Bell, all transformed from Pangu's Axe of Creation.
These three Innate Supreme Treasures each contained multiple complete Source Great Daos. They were terrifying beyond measure!
In just a thousand years, Bai Yu had initially refined these two Great Dao Treasures.
The treasures of the Grand Primordial Cosmos all possessed Innate Restrictions. To fully control them, one had to refine every one of their Innate Restrictions.
Because they contained Source Great Daos, these Innate Restrictions could also be called Great Dao Restrictions.
A Low-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure contained at most twelve Innate Restrictions.
A Mid-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure contained at most twenty-four Innate Restrictions.
A High-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure contained at most thirty-six Innate Restrictions.
A Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure contained at most forty-eight Innate Restrictions.
As for Innate Supreme Treasures, they contained no fewer than forty-nine Innate Restrictions.
As for the upper limit?
The Great Dao was supreme, and the Great Dao was infinite.
Therefore, there was no upper limit at all!
The two treasures before Bai Yu each contained forty-eight Great Dao Restrictions. In other words, both were Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures!
Moreover, even among Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, they stood at the absolute pinnacle.
After initially refining these two treasures, Bai Yu also learned of their origins.
The Dark Flag with half its flagpole broken off was called the Devour Abyss Flag.
It contained an incomplete Devouring Source Great Dao and had an extraordinary origin. It had once been the companion supreme treasure of the Devouring Godsfiend among the three thousand Chaos Godsfiends.
However, when Pangu opened the heavens, the Devouring Godsfiend fell, and the Devour Abyss Flag was struck by the light of the Axe of Creation. After that, there was no after that.
The Devouring Source Great Dao contained within the Devour Abyss Flag was directly severed, then shattered.
The reason only half the flagpole remained was that the other half had been severed by the Axe of Creation and annihilated.
It could never be restored.
Fortunately, the axe light of the Axe of Creation had not reached the flag itself. Otherwise, the Devour Abyss Flag likely would not have even retained the grade of a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
