The Primordial beings had just snapped out of the blade intent of the Seven Injuries and Regretful Hate Blade.

All eyes turned to the Supreme Sword in the sky with envy.

"So this is the tenth-ranked treasure on the Magic Treasure Ranking?"

"As expected, it truly is the natural enemy of the Seven Injuries and Regretful Hate Blade—the Great Dao Supreme... formidable indeed..."

"This sword wields the Supreme Dao, one of the greatest Daos... I wonder how it compares to the Futu Dao?"

"Supreme Dao... Futu Dao... both names sound pretty impressive..."

"Shouldn't the Supreme Dao be stronger? After all, the Great Dao Supreme Sword ranks higher than the Futuo Pagoda..."

"That's not necessarily true... It only proves the Supreme Sword is stronger than the Futuo Pagoda, but you can't conclude the Supreme Dao is stronger than the Futu Dao, right?"

"Why bother with such useless talk?"

"We can't comprehend these supreme Daos anyway... If we could grasp even a minor Dao, we'd be thanking heaven and earth..."

"Countless Primordial beings, all buzzing with discussion..."

"Even the Great Dao Supreme Sword, which holds the Supreme Dao, only ranks tenth?"

"I can't even imagine what the top ten on the Magic Treasure List must be like..."

"Regardless, Dao Ancestor Hongjun's Jade Plate of Creation hasn't appeared yet. I still firmly believe it's the strongest."

"Better not jump to conclusions, or you'll end up eating your words..."

"I never expected this Changkong Daoist to be so monstrous—starting from fifteenth place on the Magic Treasure Ranking, all his treasures are listed..."

"That means this Changkong Daoist must be the master of that Sanqi..."

"If he's protecting someone... the Demon Race, the Witch Race, and Empress Nuwa definitely won't be able to touch the Human Race..."

"Let's stop discussing this—what does it have to do with us? As they say, when immortals fight, mortals suffer. Better focus on the Magic Treasure Ranking..."

"After the Magic Treasure Ranking ends, Empress Nuwa will go to war with Saint Zhunti. I wonder who's stronger between them?"

"Just watch slowly—there's plenty of drama. After the Magic Treasure Ranking, there are other lists..."

"Once all the lists are fully revealed, this Primordial Chaos World will truly begin to change..."

Everyone looked up at the Great Dao Supreme Sword in the sky, chatting idly.

Once the lingering shock and exhaustion faded from their hearts.

A sense of ease even crept in.

Those great cultivators were right.

When immortals fight, mortals suffer.

All they could do was wait for events to unfold.

At that moment, the Violet Gold Qi in the sky surged once more.

Everyone grew excited again.

Was the top ten of the Magic Treasure Ranking finally about to be announced?

The Primordial beings lay on the ground, gazing at the heavens.

The Violet Gold Qi churning in the sky grew increasingly turbulent.

After a long while, it actually manifested into a book.

This book exuded an overwhelmingly unmatched aura, suppressing the entire Primordial Chaos World.

Soon after, the Great Dao Script materialized in the air.

["Ninth on the Magic Treasure Ranking: Great Dao Treasure Codex. Innate Supreme Treasure. Total of one hundred and eight thousand volumes. Since the Jade Plate of Creation was damaged, the Great Dao Treasure Codex records many Daos and holds the origins of numerous Daos. Anyone can comprehend a unique supreme Dao of their own from the Great Dao Treasure Codex. Additionally, the Great Dao Treasure Codex records many shocking secret histories such as Shrouding the Heavens, Battle Through the Heavens, Douluo Continent, Zichuan, and Swallowed Star. Master: Changkong!"]

"Holy shit... no wonder it's the ninth-ranked existence on the Magic Treasure Ranking... one hundred and eight thousand volumes... isn't this the number one treasure codex of the Primordial Chaos World?..."

"And it records so many Daos..."

"Whoever masters this treasure codex would master all Daos, wouldn't they?"

"With this codex in hand, any Dao is just a reach away."

"No wonder this book ranks ahead of the Great Dao Supreme Sword—it's ridiculously strong..."

"But there's something strange too—the Great Dao Treasure Codex, which records all Daos, only ranks ninth... What kind of freaks are ahead of it?"

"I wonder if that Changkong Daoist is generous... maybe he'd lend out a volume or two for a closer look..."

"Can anyone really comprehend their own Dao from this treasure?"

"Truly boundless in its mystery..."

"But what the hell is this mysterious Battle Through the Heavens?"

"Battle Through the Heavens? Douluo Continent? Swallowed Star? Zichuan? What are these things? The names sound pretty badass?"

"Didn't you read the Great Dao Script? It says these are shocking secret histories... probably some pretty awesome stuff, right?"

"..."

The billions upon billions of Primordial beings all began to discuss in disbelief.

"Senior Xiao Erbi, are you still there?"

"Senior Xiao Erbi, please explain for us—what exactly is Battle Through the Heavens?"

"And what about Douluo Continent, Zichuan, Asura God of War, Swallowed Star—what are those things?"

"I told you, stop asking me. I'm just a fucking Xiao Erbi. If there's something you don't understand, go ask those Sages..."

"..."

"As expected of Senior Xiao Erbi—even his anger has such character..."

The crowd was noisy and chaotic.

But the Great Dao Treasure Codex in the sky had truly stunned them all.

A treasure codex recording countless Daos...

A total of one hundred and eight thousand volumes...

Clearly, everyone was shocked by this Great Dao Treasure Codex.

The moment this treasure's information appeared, the entire Primordial Chaos World instantly exploded.

Even beyond the Primordial Chaos World, one could hear the collective sharp intake of breath from the Primordial beings.

The air of the Primordial Chaos World seemed to thin out in that instant.

Such was the power of the Great Dao Treasure Codex.

Just as everyone was marveling, the Violet Gold Qi in the sky began to seethe once more.

Everyone understood in their hearts—the next treasure was coming...

The Violet Gold Qi in the sky spread more and more fiercely.

After a long, long time, it finally condensed with difficulty into a treasure.

This treasure, as it turned out, was a massive disc.

The disc emitted strange and bizarre lights, making it impossible to see clearly.

As soon as this treasure appeared, it was as if a volcano had suddenly erupted deep within a thousand-zhang layer of ice.

The entire Primordial Chaos World was thrown into an uproar in that moment.

Countless people cried out in shock.

A faint trace of fear seemed to permeate the air.

"This... this is the Jade Plate of Creation..."

"How could it appear so early?"

"Such a powerful Jade Plate of Creation, and it only ranks eighth?"

"I never imagined the original form of the Jade Plate of Creation was a disc..."

"It's over... my faith has crumbled..."

"The Primordial Chaos World is beyond saving... the strongest treasure only ranks eighth..."

At that moment, all living beings in the Primordial Chaos World fell into chaos.

Let alone these later generations of Primordial beings.

Even among the Innate Beings, very few had ever seen the Jade Plate of Creation.

But that did not diminish their longing for it.
