Land of Nine Netherworlds!
The numerous top-tier Quasi-Saints blocking Old Ancestor Minghe, along with the Six Saints of Hong Huang, could not help but stop.
Though Yuan Feng's survival greatly shocked them, it was not entirely unacceptable.
Yuan Feng was an Innate Lifeform. If she had left behind a wisp of lingering soul, she could still be resurrected.
But the most crucial part of this information was neither Yuan Feng's survival nor the treasure ranking, but the description listed before her name.
"She actually obtained Chaos Flame!"
"That is Great Dao Divine Fire, enough to burn all things. Calling it the Origin of Fire would not be an exaggeration!"
"Such a treasure was only ranked twenty-ninth?"
"Shh, didn't you see those words? Yuan Feng is actually someone's attendant!"
"An attendant?"
"A being as proud as Yuan Feng actually became an attendant?"
"..."
For a moment, the Myriad Races of Hong Huang, experts from every faction, the Six Saints of Hong Huang, and even the Dao Ancestor in Zixiao Palace were utterly shocked.
They had finally discovered a name they did not recognize.
And this Dao Lord Taichu had actually subdued the still-living Yuan Feng. Most importantly, Yuan Feng had willingly become his attendant. Just how powerful must he be?
Back then, Yuan Feng, Ancestral Dragon, and First Qilin had all been beings who looked down upon Heaven and Earth. They had not even regarded the Dao Ancestor highly.
How could she willingly become a Dao Lord's attendant?
Could he be even more powerful than the Dao Ancestor?
Before the doubts and shock in the hearts of Hong Huang's many experts could subside, the Hong Huang Treasure Ranking on the Supreme Hongmeng Ranking updated once more!
[Hong Huang Treasure Ranking, Twenty-Eighth Place: Qilin Seal!] [Supreme Grade Innate Spirit Treasure!] [Holder: Dao Lord Taichu's attendant, First Qilin!] [Ranking Reward: Ten wisps of Origin of Earth!]
"What is going on?"
"Has my ancestor not died either?"
"Why did he become someone else's attendant?"
"That can't be right. I watched my ancestor fall!"
"Didn't he transform into Qilin Cliff on Kunlun Mountain?"
"..."
The Qilin Clan was completely stunned.
Especially Four Unlike, Venerable Yuanshi's mount. At this moment, he did not know whether he should feel shocked or excited.
Even Yuanshi revealed a trace of confusion.
Although he had not personally witnessed First Qilin's death, he had sensed it, as First Qilin had fallen at Kunlun Mountain.
Yet Yuan Feng and First Qilin had actually been implicated by a Hong Huang Treasure Ranking on the Supreme Hongmeng Ranking. Could it be that the creator of the Supreme Hongmeng Ranking had deliberately resurrected these two ancient beings?
It was not only Yuanshi; the other Saints shared the same doubts.
Hongjun in Zixiao Palace could not help but rise to his feet. But when he thought of the Supreme Hongmeng Ranking's might, he sighed and sat back down.
It was truly unwise to step forward and verify this matter now.
What if he found nothing in the end and lost face again?
[Hong Huang Treasure Ranking, Twenty-Seventh Place: Ancestral Dragon Pearl!] [Supreme Grade Innate Spirit Treasure!] [Holder: Dao Lord Taichu's attendant, Ancestral Dragon!] [Ranking Reward: Ten wisps of Origin of Water! Water of All Things!]
"Ancestral Dragon did not die either?"
"How could the leaders of the three clans possibly submit to the same person?"
"..."
The Myriad Races of Hong Huang Experts were once again struck by surging waves of shock.
This Hong Huang Treasure Ranking had brought them far too many surprises.
Most crucially, after discovering that these three ancient beings who should have fallen appeared on the Hong Huang Treasure Ranking of the Supreme Hongmeng Ranking, they actually did not question it much and simply believed it.
Could it be because the ranking had distributed rewards?
"Hahaha, the ancestor of our Dragon Clan did not fall!"
"The Dragon Clan can rise again!"
"..."
At this moment, the Dragon Clan, which had been suppressed by all sides and had not dared to leave the Four Seas to develop for a long time, let out excited roars one after another.
The only thing they found difficult to accept was that their ancestor had become companions with Yuan Feng and First Qilin, all submitting to one person.
If that was the case, did that not mean they truly could no longer make a move against Kong Xuan?
[Hong Huang Treasure Ranking, Twenty-Sixth Place: Beast Emperor Halberd!] [Supreme Grade Innate Spirit Treasure!] [Holder: Dao Lord Taichu's guard, Beast Emperor Shen Ni!] [Ranking Reward: Ten wisps of Origin of Slaughter! Ten wisps of Origin of Fiendish Energy!]
"What is going on?"
"Wasn't Beast Emperor Shen Ni sealed away?"
"When did he emerge?"
"Why did none of us know?"
"What exactly happened? Even we Saints do not know!"
"..."
Upon seeing Beast Emperor Shen Ni's name, those below the Quasi-Saint realm, as well as those who had only recently entered it, were not particularly shocked. Shen Ni's name was simply too distant from them.
But the many top-tier Quasi-Saints, especially the Six Saints of Hong Huang and Dao Ancestor Hongjun in Zixiao Palace, all trembled inwardly, their faces filled with shock.
Back then, the Fierce Beast Clan had ravaged Hong Huang. Wielding the Beast Emperor Halberd, Beast Emperor Shen Ni had battled across Heaven and Earth, devastating the Myriad Races of Hong Huang and inciting the wrath of all races.
Hongjun had gathered several Ancestor-level beings, borrowed the strength of the three clans, and drawn upon a wisp of the power Pangu had left behind in Hong Huang before they finally drove the Fierce Beast Clan out of Hong Huang and sealed Beast Emperor Shen Ni away.
But now, how had this Emperor of Ferocious Beasts, who should have been sealed, escaped?
And how could such a being, one who would rather die than retreat, willingly become someone else's guard?
Why did even the Heavenly Dao not know?
Could that mighty being have already surpassed the Heavenly Dao Realm?
At this thought, Hongjun's lips could not help but tremble.
Previously, he had believed that the being who created the Supreme Hongmeng Ranking might have reached the Heavenly Dao Realm, enough to resist the Heavenly Dao's investigation.
Yet he had not expected that person to make the ancestors of the three clans submit, free the Emperor of Ferocious Beasts from his seal, and turn him into a guard.
He had deceived Hongjun without anyone noticing and concealed everything from the Heavenly Dao. How could Hongjun not be shocked?
Even Pangu of old might not have been able to accomplish such a thing!
[Hong Huang Treasure Ranking, Twenty-Fifth Place: Chaos Nine-Colored Lamp!] [Supreme Grade Innate Spirit Treasure!] [Holder: Hongmeng Palace, Dao Lord Taichu!] [Treasure Ranking Reward: One wisp of Chaos Origin!]
"Who exactly is this Divine Lord Taichu?"
"Could he be the creator of the Supreme Hongmeng Ranking?"
"If so, is he rewarding himself?"
"Besides, it is only a lamp, a Supreme Grade Innate Spirit Treasure. Why reward it with Chaos Origin?"
"Is that the origin of the Three Thousand Great Daos?"
"..."
At this moment, the Myriad Races of Hong Huang were too shocked to speak, especially the Six Sages and Dao Ancestor Hongjun.
As top-tier beings, they naturally knew just how astonishing this so-called Chaos Origin was.
Even the many Chaos Demon Gods of old had merely been nurtured by the Great Dao. It had been exceedingly difficult for them to obtain Chaos Origin formed from the convergence of the Three Thousand Great Daos.
After a long while, a string of doubts surfaced in the minds of the Myriad Races of Hong Huang Experts almost simultaneously.
Where was Hongmeng Palace?
Who exactly was Dao Lord Taichu?
Was the Supreme Hongmeng Ranking created by Dao Lord Taichu?
Why did he reward himself with something so precious?
Did this count as cheating?
