The Peak of the Tribulation, Fishing in Troubled Waters!

Boom—

A thunderous, earth-shattering roar suddenly echoed across the Primordial World, its sheer scale drawing the attention of every top-tier powerhouse within it.

At a location millions of li from Xie Fang, a burst of treasure light erupted, scattering in all directions!

At the same time, pillars of Spiritual Qi shot into the sky, illuminating the entire Primordial World in an instant!

"This is the omen of a supreme treasure's birth!"

Xie Fang's brow furrowed. Judging by the scale of this phenomenon, the treasure was at least an Innate Spiritual Treasure!

Of course, Xie Fang wasn't the only one to sense this anomaly. The other great powers of the Primordial World also detected it, and instantly, the entire realm erupted into fervor.

"How could I miss out on an Innate Spiritual Treasure's appearance? Besides, when the fight for it breaks out, there's bound to be a massive battle—I can harvest another wave of Experience Points."

Xie Fang pondered for a moment, then decided to go join the commotion.

Though he had slain many ferocious beasts and experts from other races over the years, he had yet to take down any top-tier powerhouses. He was already growing tired of killing weaklings for Experience Points.

It was troublesome, and the Experience Points gained were pitifully few.

With his current Cultivation Base as a Quasi-Saint, the Experience Points he could earn from killing a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal were already negligible.

If he wanted to harvest more Experience Points, he needed to pull off something big!

Without further delay, Xie Fang tore through space and sped toward the location of the treasure's birth.

Meanwhile, across the Primordial World, the dormant innate great powers all witnessed the scene, each one brimming with excitement.

"An Innate Spiritual Treasure has appeared!"

"The Primordial World has just been born—opportunities are everywhere. This treasure shall be mine!"

"I will have it at all costs!"

One after another, these innate great powers exclaimed in awe, then mounted divine light and raced toward the treasure's birthplace.

Not only that, but the treasure's radiant glow also drew experts from every major race.

After all, who wouldn't want a treasure?

As Xie Fang tore through space, he saw countless experts speeding past him, riding beams of divine light in all colors—a truly spectacular sight.

Among them were even several Quasi-Saint-level powerhouses!

Some of these experts Xie Fang recognized by name, while many others he had never even heard of.

Presumably, these experts existed in the Primordial World only to eventually fall, leaving not even a ripple in the river of history.

With Xie Fang's cultivation, it didn't take long for him to cross the void and arrive at the treasure's birthplace.

By now, many experts had already gathered there, standing guard. Their gazes weren't on Xie Fang, but fixed on a bottomless canyon.

The canyon was shrouded in auspicious vapors, with Spiritual Qi converging to form clusters of auspicious clouds. These clouds gathered above the canyon, exuding a fragrant aura.

After arriving, most experts simply waited silently for the treasure to emerge, each wary of others trying to snatch it first—or preparing to seize it themselves.

Boom—

Just then, a deafening roar erupted from the canyon's depths, as if a ferocious beast were howling and raging below!

Following that thunderous sound, the mountains and lands spanning millions of li began to heave upward, as if some immense force beneath them was pushing them up.

The experts, including Xie Fang, furrowed their brows, rose into the air, and hovered midair, watching the canyon intently.

At that moment, an extremely profound aura surged forth from the canyon's abyss!

Hum—

At the same time, the Spiritual Qi gathered in the sky churned violently. Thick bolts of lightning, like writhing electric pythons, twisted their bodies, unleashing devastating arcs of electricity that tore through the heavens and struck straight down into the canyon!

"This is... the treasure emerging!"

As terrifying energy burst forth from the abyss, the treasure's light blazed into brilliance!

"The treasure is out—grab it!"

Someone shouted.

Instantly, countless experts swarmed forward, each employing their own methods to charge into the canyon.

"Get lost! This treasure belongs to our Kirin Clan!"

A sharp roar rang out like thunder, exploding in everyone's ears!

Following that, an overwhelmingly powerful aura spread wildly!

A colossal seal, as massive as a mountain, descended from the sky!

On the seal, a coiled kirin was engraved, radiating dazzling treasure light!

This was a Kirin Clan elder making his move, trying to seize the treasure!

"This treasure is fated for our Dragon Clan. All of you, scram, or we'll leave you in pieces!"

Just then, a resounding dragon's roar rang out as a broad, long sword descended from the heavens, slicing through the sky!

It was a Dragon Clan expert, come to contend for the emerging spiritual treasure.

Though the Dragon Clan and Kirin Clan were allied, that alliance only held against the Ferocious Beasts. Both knew that once the Ferocious Beast Tribulation ended, their only rivals in the Primordial World would be each other.

Thus, with a rare treasure appearing, neither the Dragon Clan nor the Kirin Clan would yield it.

In but a moment, experts from the Ferocious Beast Clan also arrived!

Wave after wave of fierce auras surged skyward, and the scene erupted into chaos.

"This is getting quite lively."

Xie Fang concealed himself in the void, suppressing his aura as he observed the spectacle before him, letting out a soft chuckle.

As the saying goes, profit stirs the heart—and it held true even in the Primordial World. A single Innate Spiritual Treasure had drawn so many experts here.

Yet precisely because the Ferocious Beast Clan had come, the experts of the Primordial Races instinctively formed a united front against the beasts.

After all, though the Primordial Races boasted many clans, their experts were few.

The Ferocious Beast Clan, after eons of propagation, had reached its peak. The number of beasts arriving now far exceeded that of the Primordial Races.

Thus, the Primordial Races had no choice but to join forces to crush the beasts before they could compete for the treasure.

"Kill them first, then decide the treasure's ownership!"

Someone shouted, and the clash erupted in an instant.

Even without the treasure, the two sides would have fought on sight. But now, with the treasure as the catalyst, this battlefield grew far more brutal.

Xie Fang, meanwhile, wasn't idle.

The scene was utter chaos, both sides locked in fierce combat—perfect for him to fish in troubled waters.

After all, whether these fighting beings or beasts, in Xie Fang's eyes, they were all moving Experience Points!

The treasure could be taken anytime, but such a bounty of Experience Points was hard to come by.

A fierce battle!

No one had expected this fight to last a full five hundred years.

In the northern reaches of the Primordial World, this was the battlefield where the Ferocious Beast Clan clashed with the Primordial Races.

Drawn together by the emergence of a treasure, the two factions had turned this place into a warzone. Their numbers swelled continuously, and the scene was utterly staggering.

The Primordial Races under the rule of the Three Primordial Clans alone numbered no less than ten billion beings!

And the Ferocious Beast Clan's count was even more exaggerated, hovering around a hundred billion!
