This figure was enormous, with disheveled hair and red brows and beard.
He wore a Blood-colored Robe and held a black and a white sword of slaughter in his arms.
At this moment, he actually let out a series of low chuckles.
The laughter was somewhat hoarse and unpleasant, sending a chill down one's spine.
"That Daoist Randeng, that old ox-nose, actually has a day to hold his head high... He's made me, Minghe, look at him with new eyes. If he ever comes to the West, I'll have to invite him for a good cup of blood wine..."
With that, he chuckled again.
Old Ancestor Minghe had always been displeased with those saints!
They had merely relied on fortune to reach the saint realm and get ahead of him.
On ordinary days, they all turned their noses up to the sky.
He had never found them agreeable.
Now that Daoist Randeng dared to curse them out loud, he naturally won Minghe's favor.
On the Primordial Chaos Land, there was a celestial mountain called Longevity Mountain.
On the mountain was a celestial palace called Wuzhuang Temple.
In Wuzhuang Temple lived an old immortal who had attained the Dao!
He was Zhen Yuanzi...
At this moment, Zhen Yuanzi stood atop the celestial mountain, gazing into the distance.
A bitter smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
Originally, he had only meant to joke with his old friend Daoist Randeng, to ease his gloomy mood.
But he never imagined things would develop to such a point.
It was truly a sin.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel some regret.
He didn't know if Daoist Randeng could survive this calamity.
At this moment, Primeval Lord of Heaven, who had been trembling and silent for a long, long time, finally came to his senses.
He himself was a saint.
Why should he bicker with that Randeng?
Bickering with that accursed Randeng only lowered his status.
He could simply strike out directly and suppress the man to death!
"Randeng, you old thief, where are you? Do you dare to show yourself and fight this Saint?"
As he spoke, he suddenly hurled the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi in his hand.
The Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, wrapped in a fearsome aura of slaughter, flew out from Jade Void Palace.
In an instant, it seemed to cross the river of time and space, appearing in the sky above the Primordial Chaos Land.
Its unmatched pressure made everyone feel as if a great disaster was upon them.
Although the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi ranked only forty-sixth on the Magic Treasure Ranking, no one dared to underestimate this treasure.
After all, it was a supreme innate merit-based spiritual treasure.
It was itself made of slaughter-jade, killing without incurring karmic consequences.
Who would dare to slight it?
The true form of the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi stretched across the sky, and the very air between heaven and earth seemed to freeze.
Its vast and mighty pressure proclaimed its powerful magic for all to see.
Everyone looked up at the true form of the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, their eyes filled with envy.
Just then, from the edge of heaven and earth, an arrogant voice rang out:
"Primeval, you old scoundrel, find me first before you talk big..."
"Hahaha..."
The voice was utterly arrogant, as if it feared nothing in heaven or earth.
But in truth, Randeng had already begun to flee in panic.
The source of that voice kept shifting constantly.
Leaving people unable to pinpoint exactly where Randeng was.
Uttering the harshest words.
Yet acting as the most cowardly person?
This shift left many torn between laughter and tears.
This Randeng...
When had he become so shameless?
They had originally expected a good show.
Now it seemed the show wouldn't be happening after all.
Saint Primordial was also furious with frustration.
In the air, the Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, radiated an august heavenly might.
But it was like a headless fly, without a target, spinning aimlessly.
Because he had never managed to lock onto Daoist Randeng's aura.
Just then, a faint, ethereal voice rang out:
"Primordial, wait a moment. Let the Magic Treasure Ranking be fully revealed before doing anything else... The next treasure is about to be announced..."
This voice carried no overwhelming grandeur, but it had a sense of misty transcendence that commanded respect.
It was none other than the leader of the Xuan Sect, Taishang Laozi...
Faced with this situation, the helpless Primeval Lord of Heaven could only withdraw the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi.
The vast Violet Gold Qi in the sky began to churn once more.
Many people's attention shifted back to it.
What kind of treasure could rank above the Green Ping Sword, the Coiling Dragon Staff, and the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi?
The surging golden light in the sky roiled again.
Finally, it manifested into a longsword.
The moment this longsword appeared, many were baffled.
A treasure capable of ranking above the Three Pure Ones' three treasures should, by all logic, be immensely famous.
Yet this longsword was unremarkable in appearance, as if no one recognized it.
It was an ordinary longsword, with nothing special about it.
But the moment this sword appeared, the Twelve Ancestral Witches in the Ancestral Witch Hall instantly changed expression.
Because this longsword was a treasure they had recently been refining in secret.
It hadn't even been successfully completed yet, and now the Primordial Violet Gold List had exposed it...
If so, wasn't this a terrible turn of events?
"Big brother, who would have thought this longsword would be exposed? What do we do now?"
Di Jiang, the most imposing figure among them, also wore a bitter smile:
"It doesn't matter. Sooner or later, it would have been exposed. One day earlier, one day later—let it be... "
"The world says our Witch Race has flawed Primordial Spirits and cannot use treasures, yet here we've managed to refine one. Now that it appears before the world, let the beings of the Primordial Wilderness see something new..."
Before long, violet qi filled the sky, manifesting several lines of Great Dao Script:
[Magic Treasure Ranking, forty-fifth place: Demon Slaying Sword. Forged by the Witch Race from the blood essence of millions of slaughtered humans, it possesses a natural restraining power against the Demon Race. It can corrupt demon bodies, decay their Primordial Spirits, and overcomes all demons with overwhelming force! Because it targets only the Demon Race, it ranks forty-fifth. Master: Twelve Ancestral Witches!]
The moment this treasure appeared, the entire Primordial Wilderness erupted in an uproar.
