After the great final battle between the Witch and Demon clans, the Chaos Bell had already vanished without a trace. Now, it had appeared directly in the General Store.
If it had only been the Chaos Bell, Bixiao still would not have believed that Wu Feng was a Saint, or perhaps an existence surpassing Saints.
That was because after seeing the Chaos Bell, she had seen another treasure—the Chaos Supreme Treasure, the Pangu Axe.
The Pangu Axe had been Great God Pangu's weapon.
Who was Great God Pangu? Legend had it that after battling countless demons in the chaos, he had ultimately fallen.
Yet his body had transformed into the prehistoric world that existed now.
Most of the living beings in the prehistoric world had evolved from Pangu's body.
Even Bixiao herself was no exception.
The legendary Three Pure Ones, including her teacher, Master of the Heavens, had been transformed from one of Great God Pangu's primordial spirits.
It was precisely because she had seen the Pangu Axe that Wu Feng's status in Bixiao's heart had risen higher and higher.
"Surpassing Saints?" Qiongxiao was stunned for a moment. She looked at Bixiao as if she were looking at an idiot. "Bixiao, did you hit your head somewhere? Are you talking nonsense? Surpassing Saints—how could you possibly meet someone like that?"
Someone who surpassed Saints seemed to exist only in the form of the legendary Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
Bixiao had met Master of the Heavens' teacher. Could that possibly be true?
"Second Sister, there's nothing wrong with my brain. I'm perfectly normal." Bixiao spoke one word at a time. "I really did meet a senior who surpassed Saints."
"Oh, so you met one." Qiongxiao nodded, though her expression still looked completely unconcerned.
That made Bixiao realize that her second sister still did not believe her.
"I really did meet him!" Bixiao shouted. "Why don't you believe me?"
"Bixiao, what happened after that?" Yunxiao interrupted.
"Big Sister really is sensible." Bixiao hurriedly nodded. "She's nothing like Second Sister, whose words are so vicious."
"..." Qiongxiao's willow brows twitched. She wanted to teach her little sister a proper lesson.
"Big Sister really is clever. After that, I saw something in the senior's shop—the Investiture of the Gods Edict." Bixiao spoke slowly.
"The Investiture of the Gods Edict?" Yunxiao and Qiongxiao were stunned.
They had never heard of it.
However, they still remembered the second Investiture of the Gods clearly.
They had experienced the Investiture of the Gods Calamity themselves, which was why they had become what they were now.
They had become Immortals and Gods of the Heavenly Court.
Although Haotian would not casually order around these Interception Sect disciples because of Master of the Heavens, compared to the past, they had long since lost their freedom.
Then, was the Investiture of the Gods Edict Bixiao mentioned related to the List of Deities?
Even if it was related, what did it have to do with them?
"Yes, that's right. It's the Investiture of the Gods Edict. You probably don't know what it does, do you?" Bixiao giggled. "I'll tell you. If we use the Investiture of the Gods Edict, we can leave the List of Deities and recreate our physical bodies. That way, we won't need to remain bound to the List of Deities and become some kind of god or immortal of the Heavenly Court."
"What?" Yunxiao and Qiongxiao were both shocked.
Chapter Forty-Five: True Lord of the Dragon Tiger Altar Zhao Gongming
No wonder Yunxiao and Qiongxiao were so shocked by what Bixiao had said.
After being placed on the List of Deities, they had become members of the List of Deities. Even Saints might have been powerless to help them.
After all, the List of Deities was a product of the calamity and was closely connected to the Heavenly Dao in some respects.
How could Saints like Master of the Heavens defy the Heavenly Dao?
Yet now, Yunxiao and the others had actually heard that something existed which could let them leave the List of Deities.
"Bixiao, you can't lie about something like this." Qiongxiao spoke seriously.
"Second Sister, I joke around about some things, but how could I joke about something this important?" Bixiao shook her head.
"Bixiao, are you telling the truth?" Yunxiao asked solemnly. "How do you know that thing is useful to us? Perhaps that senior you mentioned deceived you."
"Deceived me?" Bixiao immediately replied. "I'm only a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. What could that senior possibly gain by deceiving me? We can't be considered Interception Sect disciples anymore."
"This..." Yunxiao and Qiongxiao hesitated.
What Bixiao said made sense.
At present, they truly did not have the qualifications to be deceived by anyone.
They had no treasures in their possession.
Anyone Bixiao considered a senior was at least a Quasi-Saint or higher.
They should not have anything that would make a Quasi-Saint covet them.
"Besides, I saw some incredible things in that senior's General Store." Bixiao lowered her voice. "The Chaos Bell of Eastern Emperor Taiyi, the legendary Heavenly Emperor of the former demon clan, is in that senior's General Store."
"The Innate Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell." Yunxiao was startled.
That legendary treasure was truly renowned.
As the Three Xiaos and disciples of the Interception Sect, they had heard of it as well.
The Golden Flood Dragon Scissors, with which they had once displayed their might during the Investiture of the Gods Calamity, could not possibly compare to it.
Moreover, apart from the Saints taking the field during the Investiture of the Gods Calamity, the ferocity of those battles could not compare with the Witch-Demon Calamity.
"Yes, it really is the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell." Bixiao nodded. "I saw it with my own eyes. As expected of an Innate Supreme Treasure."
"How could that be? Didn't the Chaos Bell disappear?" Yunxiao also wore an incredulous expression.
"I was shocked too at first, but afterward I saw another thing, and my shock over the Chaos Bell vanished in an instant." Bixiao continued speaking.
"What thing?" Yunxiao and Qiongxiao focused their attention.
Could there really be something more shocking than the Innate Supreme Treasure, the Chaos Bell?
"Great God Pangu's Pangu Axe." Bixiao spoke each word clearly.
"The Pangu Axe?" Yunxiao was dumbfounded. "Wasn't Great God Pangu's Pangu Axe said to have split into three? The Chaos Bell was one of those three. How could it appear again?"
"I don't know." Bixiao shrugged. "In any case, I saw the Pangu Axe. At the time, I felt that if even a wisp of its aura were released, it would be enough to suppress and kill me."
At that moment, the place fell silent again.
Whether it was Yunxiao or Qiongxiao, both needed to digest what they had just heard.
Just as Bixiao had said, this was a major matter. Compared to it, the Investiture of the Gods Calamity suddenly seemed insignificant.
"Bixiao, is everything you said true?" Yunxiao asked solemnly.
"Big Sister, I told you, it's all true." Bixiao replied. "How could I possibly lie about something like this?"
"Then, Bixiao, if we want to obtain the Investiture of the Gods Edict, do we need to pay something?" Yunxiao asked.
"Big Sister really is clever." Bixiao smiled. "You're right. That senior opened a General Store. The Pangu Axe and the Chaos Bell are also merely goods in the General Store. As long as we have enough Exchange Points, we can buy them."
Upon hearing this, Yunxiao and Qiongxiao sucked in a breath of cold air.
This was truly an enormous undertaking.
Just what kind of existence was that senior?
It became perfectly normal that Bixiao had concluded he was more powerful than a Saint.
"So the Investiture of the Gods Edict can be bought too?" Qiongxiao asked.
"That's right. At the senior's store, all kinds of spirit treasures and cultivation techniques can be exchanged for Exchange Points. But even if I took out everything I had, I'd only have a little over a thousand, which is nowhere near enough." Bixiao spoke helplessly. "That's why I came back. Otherwise, I would have tried to see whether it could really succeed."
Although she had complete confidence in Wu Feng's strength, the matter had not truly been resolved. Naturally, it still caused some unease.
"How many does the Investiture of the Gods Edict require?" Yunxiao asked.
"Ten thousand," Bixiao answered.
"Ten thousand." Yunxiao pondered for a moment. "Bixiao, you only have a little over a thousand. Even if we took out everything we had, we might not be able to gather ten thousand."
Even if she and Qiongxiao could exchange three thousand each, it still would not be enough.
Not to mention that they might not even have that much.
After all, they did not have many treasures in their possession.
If this had been Eldest Martial Brother Daoist Duobao of the former Interception Sect, he might truly have been able to do it effortlessly.
Daoist Duobao's reputation was not undeserved.
"Big Sister, what should we do?" Qiongxiao asked.
Qiongxiao also wanted to see the Investiture of the Gods Edict.
"Wait, there's one more thing. A single Investiture of the Gods Edict can only allow one person to leave the List of Deities." Bixiao continued.
"In that case, it's even less enough. We need to find someone." Yunxiao spoke in a deep voice.
