Watching the fierce battle erupt before him, a faint smile slowly appeared at the corner of Xie Fang's mouth.
Another chance to fish in troubled waters!
With a flick of his hand, a golden shadow of the Heaven-Measuring Ruler burst forth!
A murderous aura swept out, blanketing the heavens and earth!
Xie Fang's true form, the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler, was already one of the finest weapons of slaughter among the Innate Supreme Treasures. Later, he had fused it with the Yin-Yang Two Energies and the Yin-Yang Rods. Now, it could well be called the greatest offensive treasure in the Primordial World!
Moreover, because he himself was the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler, he didn't need to go to the trouble of refining the Forbidden Seals within it.
The sudden display of power immediately put the combatants on alert.
"Another expert has appeared!"
"Damn it, it's Xie Fang! He wants to steal the treasure and reap the rewards!"
"Damn him!"
Clearly, Xie Fang had already made quite a name for himself. Nearly every faction knew who he was.
And naturally, if Xie Fang tried to secretly take the Spiritual Treasure that had just emerged, they wouldn't let him!
Boom!
At the same time, the baleful aura above the canyon's abyss erupted, as if it would destroy heaven and earth and rend the firmament anew!
Rays of light shot out in all directions as an immense pressure rolled toward them.
As the Spiritual Treasure shone, countless powerful attacks also reached Xie Fang.
But Xie Fang neither dodged nor retreated. With a smile on his lips, he suddenly swept out the Heaven-Measuring Ruler!
Boom!
Ten million golden ruler shadows roiled through heaven and earth, suppressing the Eight Wastelands!
Wherever the ruler passed, every attack was blasted into nothingness!
Rumble—
Amid the crashing thunder, an earth-shaking roar resounded throughout the Primordial World!
One sweep of the ruler, and all techniques were broken!
"Gasp—"
"That fiend has actually reached the Quasi-Saint realm!"
"Since when could a Quasi-Saint be this powerful? Some of those who attacked him were Quasi-Saint experts too!"
Many mighty innate beings stared wide-eyed at the sight, unable to stop themselves from drawing in a sharp breath.
They had never imagined that Xie Fang had already attained the Quasi-Saint realm.
And not only that—this Quasi-Saint's strength seemed absurdly overwhelming!
With an attack like that, even a late-stage Quasi-Saint would have to avoid its edge. How could Xie Fang be so powerful at the mid-stage?
After shattering the many attacks with a single sweep, Xie Fang stood among the clouds. He scanned the area, gave a cold laugh, then plunged into the abyss!
"Not good! That fiend wants to take the Spiritual Treasure!"
At Xie Fang's move, the beings outside cried out in alarm.
But one mighty expert merely scoffed. "Xie Fang may have remarkable abilities, but he's all brawn and no brains. This place is filled with endless astral winds. Even a Quasi-Saint would be reduced to bones if he jumped in without preparing first. Xie Fang is as good as dead!"
After all, everyone had seen Xie Fang leap into the abyss without summoning any magical treasure to protect himself.
Such reckless overconfidence meant certain death!
And the canyon's abyss was indeed just as the beings outside had described, filled with endless astral winds. The slightest misstep would leave one smashed to pieces.
However, Xie Fang's body had long since been tempered to rival an Innate Treasure. The mere astral winds might threaten an ordinary Quasi-Saint, but to Xie Fang, they weren't even enough to make him itch.
Besides, he also had the Pure World White Lotus. Even if his body couldn't withstand the winds, he would be perfectly safe with the lotus's protection.
After dispersing the endless astral winds within the abyss, a dazzling radiance came into view.
Xie Fang didn't bother to figure out what the treasure was. He simply snatched it up, turned around, and left!
A treasure that had lain dormant here for hundreds of years before emerging was sure to be a top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. With experts all around, any number of people outside were surely waiting to seize it.
Xie Fang wasn't afraid of them, but the longer he stayed, the more could go wrong. It was better to leave first!
Xie Fang tore open space, shifted away, and vanished from the abyss.
"Not good! Xie Fang got the treasure and escaped!"
"This fellow really does have some tricks up his sleeve. He managed to withstand those endless astral winds!"
"After him!"
Outside, countless experts had been watching the treasure in the abyss. The moment they sensed Xie Fang's aura moving away, they cried out in dismay and tried to pursue him.
But how could they understand the subtlety of Xie Fang's spatial shifting technique, which drew upon the Law of Space?
They had no idea where to chase him!
"Damn it! That brat has ruined my plans again!"
Luohu, who was fighting Hongjun, had naturally noticed what was happening. Fury surged in his heart. "He stole my Nine Demon Pagoda before, and now he's taken another treasure right under my nose. Damn him!"
Demonic Qi surged around him. In his fury, Luohu ignored his old enemy Hongjun, turned into a cloud of demonic mist, and chased after Xie Fang.
After all, he was the Demon Ancestor, and he had powerful methods for tracking auras.
Seeing this, Hongjun was also taken aback. Then he unleashed his magical power and hurried after Luohu!
"It's Xie Fang!"
The Three Clan Leaders, who were fighting Huang Ni nearby, naturally sensed Xie Fang's aura as well.
Ancestral Dragon instantly flew into a rage!
Were they fighting tooth and nail here, only for Xie Fang to swoop in and snatch the prize?
How could that be fair?
Blinded by rage, Ancestral Dragon immediately locked onto Xie Fang's aura. He stretched out his dragon form, tore through the void, and gave chase.
Shi Qilin roared as well, driven by his personal grudge against Xie Fang. He shattered the void and pursued him.
That left Yuanfeng alone to fight Huang Ni. In her heart, she cursed the others until she ran out of words.
Had those bastards forgotten who their enemy was?
The Three Clan Leaders had only been able to fight Huang Ni to a standstill together. Now that Ancestral Dragon and Shi Qilin had left, Yuanfeng would surely be no match for him alone.
With no choice, Yuanfeng could only sigh. She transformed into a phoenix, spread her wings, and raced after the others.
In an instant, countless mighty experts on the battlefield saw Xie Fang make off with the Spiritual Treasure. One by one, they set off in the same direction at full speed.
Myriad divine rays shimmered together as they chased toward a single destination, making for a truly magnificent sight!
Only Beast Emperor Shen Ni remained.
With the Three Clan Leaders gone in pursuit of Xie Fang, Shen Ni's face grew equally dark.
"Damn creature! The entire Primordial World belongs to this Emperor. Every treasure belongs to this Emperor. You deserve to die!"
His voice was low and grim, and his blood-red eyes pierced through the void!
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried astonishingly far.
As he fled, Xie Fang naturally noticed a large group of late-stage Quasi-Saints pursuing him from behind. But the one that gave him a headache was Huang Ni!
This top expert of the Primordial World revealed his true form, tore through the void, and gathered a ferocious shadow billions of feet tall. He reached out to grab Xie Fang, who was darting through the void!
"This guy has cultivated the Law of Space too!"
Xie Fang's expression turned grave. Judging by the supernatural ability Huang Ni had just displayed, he had clearly cultivated the Law of Space—and might even surpass Xie Fang by a wide margin!
After all, with his spatial shifting technique, not even the Three Clan Leaders, Hongjun, or Luohu could catch up to him.
Yet Beast God Huang Ni had directly used a secret art to spread his power through the void via the Law of Space, reaching out to seize him!
