Twin Yin-Yang Rods, capable of striking immortals and gods, and subduing souls!

Ranked as an Innate Spiritual Treasure!

One could say that any living being in the Primordial World would be humbled before the Twin Yin-Yang Rods!

"What a fine treasure!"

Xie Fang wasted no courtesy, directly taking the rods into his hands.

His true form was the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler; if he found the opportunity later, he could merge these rods into his own body, and their efficacy would be even greater!

"Fellow Daoist, hold on..."

Just as Xie Fang collected the Twin Yin-Yang Rods and was about to leave this place, a shout suddenly rang out!

Xie Fang turned his head to look. In the sky, an old Daoist clad in a Yin-Yang Daoist Robe stood on a cloud, speeding toward him.

The man's mana flickered and pulsed unevenly, and wherever he passed, day and night interchanged, with a mysterious aura flowing in harmony with the Way of Yin-Yang.

Moreover, this man's cultivation base was not weak—he had already reached the peak of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, only a sliver of opportunity away from the Quasi-Saint stage!

A master with one foot already stepped into the Quasi-Saint realm was now arriving with an imposing air.

"This fellow Daoist, may I ask what guidance you offer?"

Although the other party's cultivation was formidable, Xie Fang remained unafraid, speaking calmly.

As he spoke, the man had already arrived before him, hovering in mid-air, and said, "Young friend, the Twin Yin-Yang Rods in your hand are a destined object for me. Return them to me, and I will owe you a favor."

Right from the start, he directly demanded the Twin Yin-Yang Rods!

His tone was forceful, his attitude brooking no refusal. Xie Fang had no doubt that if he didn't comply, this Daoist would make a move!

However...

"Who do you think you are? Why should I care about your favor?"

Xie Fang sneered, speaking coldly.

One sentence and he wanted to take away an Innate Treasure?

Since when were things so cheap in this world?

"I will have these Yin-Yang Rods, no matter what. The favor depends on whether you know what's good for you!"

Sure enough, as Xie Fang had expected, upon hearing his refusal, the old man suddenly manifested two long chains around him—one black, one white—pulsing and writhing!

"Yin-Yang Two Energies?"

Xie Fang smiled faintly. "I was wondering who had such a big mouth. So it's Old Ancestor Yin-Yang."

With the appearance of the Yin-Yang Two Energies, the old man's identity was immediately revealed to Xie Fang. He was none other than one of the famous cannon fodder figures of the Primordial WorldOld Ancestor Yin-Yang!

This Old Ancestor Yin-Yang was originally one of the first innate beings born from chaos, formed from the Yin-Yang Two Energies within Pangu's body. As soon as he gained sentience, he possessed the strength of a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal!

However, this man's fate was extremely unlucky!

Along with Old Ancestor Qiankun and Great Immortal Yang Mei, he was schemed against by his close friend Hongjun, dragged into the Dragon-Han Tribulation, and ultimately died at the hands of Luohu, his body destroyed and his spirit extinguished!

Still, his strength was not to be underestimated, and Xie Fang hadn't expected to run into Old Ancestor Yin-Yang in this place.

"Hmph, since you know of my renown, hand over the Yin-Yang Rods at once!"

As Old Ancestor Yin-Yang spoke, the Yin-Yang Two Energies surged, his arrogance utterly boundless!

"This old bastard has no shame..."

Before Xie Fang could speak, Mo Wu beneath him couldn't stand it anymore and muttered under his breath.

However, Old Ancestor Qiankun had one foot in the Quasi-Saint realm, and his divine sense was immensely powerful. Naturally, he heard Mo Wu's muttering, and his eyes immediately widened!

Then, an overwhelmingly powerful pressure slammed down toward Mo Wu!

This pressure was so vast that even a sliver of it would be enough to crush ten thousand miles of mountains!

Mo Wu, merely at the Mystic Immortal realm, would surely die if this aura crushed down on him!

"Ah—"

Mo Wu felt as if he were standing at the edge of an abyss, and before he could even let out a scream, the overwhelming pressure was already upon him!

But...

"Hmph!"

With a cold snort, the fierce pressure instantly vanished without a trace!

Xie Fang's expression turned very sour. As the saying goes, if you strike a dog, you must look at its master. Mo Wu was his mount, and Old Ancestor Yin-Yang was courting death!

"With your late-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal cultivation, you can be considered a master in your own right, but before me, you'd better obediently hand over the treasure!"

Although Old Ancestor Yin-Yang had struck at Mo Wu, his true intention was naturally to provoke Xie Fang and test his depth.

Now that both sides were on the verge of conflict, Old Ancestor Yin-Yang felt reassured.

"Then let's see if you have the skill for it!"

Before Xie Fang's voice had even faded, he had already made his move!

He stowed Mo Wu into his space, then, with a fierce motion, hurled out thirty-five Sea Calming Pearls!

A single Sea Calming Pearl could evolve into an entire world, forming its own independent space!

One of the pearls served as the dwelling place for Zhen Yuanzi and Mo Wu, while the other thirty-five were directly flung out!

"What—what is this?"

The moment the Sea Calming Pearls emerged, the void for billions of li around instantly rippled with layer upon layer of waves. Mountains and rivers shattered, the sun and moon hung upside down!

Thirty-five void worlds pressed down with crushing force!

"These are Sea Calming Pearls! This wretch actually possesses such a powerful treasure!"

Even Old Ancestor Yin-Yang was taken aback, never expecting Xie Fang to have such a formidable artifact in hand.

Yet, as the Sea Calming Pearls appeared, the greed in his eyes only burned brighter!

"Merely a late-stage Daluo—let me suppress you!"

With that thought, Old Ancestor Yin-Yang immediately drove the Yin-Yang Two Energies to surge toward Xie Fang in a sweeping tide!

These Yin-Yang Two Energies possessed unfathomable might and boundless resilience. Wherever they passed, even space itself seemed to twist and shatter.

But Xie Fang remained utterly composed. Not only did he not recall the thirty-five Sea Calming Pearls, but he sent them crashing down toward Old Ancestor Yin-Yang at an even greater speed!

"Hmph, with my Cultivation Base, holding off these Sea Calming Pearls for a moment is no trouble. But my Yin-Yang Two Energies can corrode the soul—this brat..."

However, before Old Ancestor Yin-Yang's sneer could finish, his eyes flew wide open!

With a wave of Xie Fang's hand, a white lotus platform abruptly appeared!

"Pure World White Lotus!"

Old Ancestor Yin-Yang blurted out, his eyes nearly bulging from their sockets!

To possess even one Innate Treasure was already a stroke of heaven-defying luck. This brat not only had the Sea Calming Pearls but also the most mysterious Pure World White Lotus!

If the Yin-Yang Rods he had just taken were added to the tally, this young man carried three Innate Treasures on him!

"Brat, I will surely come for you another day. The Yin-Yang Rods are mine!"

Old Ancestor Yin-Yang made a swift decision and shouted, "I have urgent matters today—let us fight another time!"

As his words fell, the Yin-Yang Two Energies abruptly reversed course!

"Hmph, trying to flee?"

A sharp glint flashed in Xie Fang's eyes. A colossal golden ruler shadow plummeted down, savagely slashing at the retreating Yin-Yang Two Energies!

Chii—

A dull sound rang out. The Yin-Yang Two Energies were severed by a full third!

Old Ancestor Yin-Yang, too pained to dwell on the loss, swiftly withdrew the bulk of his Yin-Yang Two Energies, stepped onto his cloud, and vanished in the blink of an eye.

With the opponent wielding the Pure World White Lotus, he was already in an invincible position. Lingering here would only be a waste of effort—better to find another way.

But this time, he had tried to steal a chicken only to lose the rice. Not only had he failed to seize the Yin-Yang Rods, but he had also forfeited a portion of his own Yin-Yang Two Energies...
