Primordial: I Was Exposed After Hiding for Eons

Taishang Laozi's mood at this moment was especially low...

The Taiji Diagram, his greatest hope, had only ranked twenty-first...

Now Taishang Laozi's expression was extremely grave.

He turned his head to gaze eastward, muttering to himself:

"That twentieth-ranked treasure must be Junior Brother Tongtian's artifact, right?"

"It seems the waters of this Primordial Heaven and Earth run truly deep... Not only have Female Sages like Sanqi and great powers like Yao Yao emerged, but the news that Luohu still lives has also been revealed..."

"The Primordial Chaos... is about to change..."

Taishang Laozi stared at the sky, at the Primordial Violet Gold List that covered the heavens, murmuring to himself.

Compared to Yao Yao, Sanqi, and Luohu, what concerned him more was this Primordial Violet Gold List.

As the billions of beings in the Primordial Chaos marveled...

The Violet Gold Qi in the sky began to seethe once more.

Then treasures manifested in the air.

The billions of beings in the Primordial Chaos erupted again...

This time, their guesses were spot on.

"Indeed..."

"It really is this artifact..."

Everyone marveled in secret.

Their speculation had been correct.

Since the Heaven-Opening Three Treasures had appeared.

Then the next would be the Immortal Slaying Four Swords.

Sure enough.

The boundless golden light in the sky manifested precisely the Immortal Slaying Four Swords.

The four immortal swords in the air radiated black, white, cyan, and red light respectively.

Especially the unparalleled Sword Qi, pointing straight at the Heavenly Vault.

It even seemed poised to cleave through the heavens.

On the hilts of the four swords, each a different color, several characters were engraved.

Immortal Slaying Sword, Immortal Slaying Sword, Immortal Trapping Sword, Immortal Absolute Sword!

These four swords possessed unmatched killing intent.

When the four swords united, they were recognized as the number one killing treasure of the Primordial Chaos.

Beyond that, they had the blessing of the Primordial Chaos's foremost divine formation, the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.

The Immortal Slaying Four Swords plus the Immortal Slaying Divine Formation.

Absolutely the most powerful offensive existence in the Primordial Chaos World.

Reputed to be unbreakable without four Sages.

This alone showed the formidable strength of the Immortal Slaying Four Swords paired with the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.

["Magic Treasure Ranking Twentieth: Immortal Slaying Four Swords! Innate Supreme Treasure. These four swords hang inverted in the air; their Sword Qi can overturn Heaven and Earth. With a flash of their sword light, even Immortals through ten thousand kalpas find it hard to escape this calamity. In ancient times, there was a praise for these treasured swords: 'Not bronze, not iron, nor steel; once hidden beneath Mount Sumeru. No need for yin-yang inverted refining; how could water and fire not temper its edge? The Immortal Slaying profits, the Immortal Slaying kills, the Immortal Trapping sends red light everywhere. The Immortal Absolute's changes are endlessly subtle; Great Luo Immortals' blood stains their robes. Master: Tongtian!"]

Sss...

Everyone drew in a sharp breath.

It truly was the legendary Immortal Slaying Four Swords.

Their power was simply unparalleled.

The Immortal Slaying Four Swords were an existence beyond imagination.

"Senior Xiao Erbi, between the Immortal Slaying Four Swords and the Pangu Banner, which is stronger?"

A voice rang out across the Primordial Heaven and Earth.

The great power named Xiao Erbi's tone was extremely dismissive:

"Is that even a question?"

"Then go on, tell us! Which one is stronger?"

The sneer on Xiao Erbi's face grew even more mocking, his nostrils practically pointing skyward:

"Strictly speaking, the Pangu Banner was transformed from the blade of the Pangu Axe, so its origin is more powerful. However, the Immortal Slaying Four Swords were refined by Demon Ancestor Luohu, who consumed the entire Western Primordial Chaos's fortune and the bloodlines of countless Gods and Devils. In terms of pure offensive power, they're likely comparable."

"But the Immortal Slaying Four Swords also have the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation to pair with. That puts the Pangu Banner at a disadvantage..."

"After all, when deployed together, they are unbreakable without four Sages... Naturally, the Immortal Slaying Four Swords are stronger... So in the ranking, the Immortal Slaying Four Swords are placed higher..."

"Sss... As expected of Senior Xiao Erbi! Well said! Well said!"

"Xiao Erbi truly has keen insight..."

"Who is this Xiao Erbi? To possess such knowledge..."

"Xiao Erbi is so admirable... just which great figure is this?"

"Senior Xiao Erbi is indeed a model for our path. My respects, my respects..."

"..."

For a moment, the entire Primordial Heaven and Earth was filled with voices praising Xiao Erbi.

These voices caused many Primordial Great Powers' faces to twitch uncontrollably.

"Senior Xiao Erbi, then tell us, what kind of magic treasure could rank ahead of the Immortal Slaying Four Swords?"

"Indeed, even an Innate Supreme Treasure like the Immortal Slaying Four Swords only ranks twentieth. What treasures lie ahead?"

"Senior Xiao Erbi, enlighten us... I'm simply dying of curiosity..."

"Senior Xiao Erbi, please bestow your teachings..."

In a short while, many Primordial Great Powers began urging this Senior Xiao Erbi to guess at the treasures ahead.

The one called Senior Xiao Erbi, hearing the flattery from so many Primordial Great Powers, couldn't help but feel a bit smug:

"As I see it... the one ranked above the Immortal Slaying Four Swords is likely that legendary God-Slaying Spear..."

"The God-Slaying Spear?"

As soon as Xiao Erbi spoke these words, everyone was startled.

None had expected Senior Xiao Erbi to utter that name.

"Senior Xiao Erbi guesses the God-Slaying Spear?"

"Hasn't that Demonic Supreme Treasure already vanished?"

"Is it true? I heard that Demonic treasure shattered into fragments? Shouldn't it no longer exist?"

In that instant, everyone's thoughts were opened up by this person named Xiao Erbi.

If that treasure still existed.

It truly could rank above the Immortal Slaying Four Swords.

After all, even the name Demon Ancestor Luohu had appeared; it wasn't impossible for the God-Slaying Spear to manifest once more.

The Violet Gold Qi atop the celestial dome began to seethe again.

When that treasure manifested.

The entire host of Primordial beings erupted into an uproar once more.

This Xiao Erbi had guessed it without the slightest error.

Ranked above the Immortal Slaying Four Swords was precisely that long-lost God-Slaying Spear...

Then the Great Dao Script descended.

"Magic Treasure Ranking, Nineteenth: God-Slaying Spear. An Innate Supreme Treasure. A Demonic Supreme Treasure. Transformed from the root of the Creation Pure Lotus, mutated by absorbing all the baleful qi of the entire Chaos World. The First Demonic Weapon of Heaven and Earth, unmatched in slaughter. Master: Luohu!"

"Boom...!"

After the Great Dao Script appeared, the entire Primordial Chaos World instantly boiled over.

The whole of Primordial Heaven and Earth could no longer remain calm.

Countless Primordial beings stared wide-eyed at the information revealed on the ranking, all utterly dumbstruck.

Not only had Demon Ancestor Luohu emerged.

Even this God-Slaying Spear had appeared intact.

Could it be that he had not been killed by Ancestor Hongjun after all?

But had been hiding in the shadows all along?
