After the Magic Treasure Ranking ended, Empress Nuwa challenged Saint Zhunti to a duel.

Who knew what those two Saints were even trying to prove?

They were both mighty Saints who had lived for countless years.

Yet their temperaments were so poor.

They were going to fight in front of all the living beings of the Primordial World...

It was downright childish.

Although Zhen Yuanzi grumbled like this,

he was actually curious, too.

Between Sage Nuwa and Saint Zhunti, who was stronger?

Since time immemorial, the title of weakest Saint had belonged to those two.

After this exchange of blows,

it would finally be clear who was stronger.

Just as the living beings of the Primordial World were each harboring their own thoughts,

the next magic treasure appeared in the sky.

It was a magic treasure with a strange shape.

It looked a little like a staff,

and a little like a spearhead.

It even looked a little like a blade or sword.

No one knew what it was.

The living beings of the Primordial World looked at one another in confusion.

Everyone fell silent, waiting for the Great Dao Script.

After all, no one recognized the thing.

Speaking rashly would only invite ridicule.

Before long, the Great Dao Script appeared.

["Fourth place on the Magic Treasure Ranking: Earth-Splitting Divine Chisel. A supreme Chaos Supreme Treasure. It was born alongside the Sky-Opening Divine Axe. Both supreme Chaos Supreme Treasures possess the Law of Strength, complementing and countering each other. Both can create the world and split apart Chaos, and their power to kill is unmatched. It ranks alongside the Sky-Opening Divine Axe. Master: Changkong."]

As soon as the Great Dao Script appeared,

the minds of countless beings throughout the Primordial World were shaken.

Who would have thought that the Earth-Splitting Divine Chisel had been born alongside the Sky-Opening Divine Axe?

And that their functions were so similar?

One could open the sky, and the other could split the earth?

The key point was that the Sky-Opening Divine Axe had long since been broken down into three Innate Supreme Treasures.

Yet the Earth-Splitting Divine Chisel still remained intact.

And its Master was still that person named Changkong.

What exactly was this Changkong?

How had he managed to earn the recognition of so many supreme treasures?

Was he trying to leave anyone else alive?

Many people couldn't help cursing inwardly...

Just then, the Violet Gold Qi in the sky began to roil once more.

Were the top three spots on the Magic Treasure Ranking finally about to be revealed?

This time, the Violet Gold Qi in the sky lingered even longer.

At last, the third magic treasure appeared.

["Third place on the Magic Treasure Ranking: World-Destroying Great Millstone. A supreme Chaos Supreme Treasure. The sworn enemy of the Primordial Creation Green Lotus, it possesses the foremost of the Chaos Laws: the Law of Destruction. It can crush everything in the Primordial World and Chaos. It can grind the Primordial World, Chaos, heaven, earth, and all things to nothing, returning them to Hongmeng. It is 33,333,333 kilometers tall, 66,666,666 kilometers wide, and 99,999,999 kilometers long. Master: Changkong!"]

"Gasp..."

"What a terrifying thing..."

"The World-Destroying... Great Millstone?"

"The sworn enemy of the Primordial Creation Green Lotus? The Law of Destruction?"

"How could something this monstrous exist?"

"It can even crush Chaos?"

"No wonder it ranks above the Earth-Splitting Divine Chisel, which is as renowned as the Sky-Opening Divine Axe... It really is stronger than those two supreme treasures..."

"So the Primordial Chaos World we live in could be crushed at a wave of his hand..."

In that instant, countless beings throughout the Primordial World fell into despair.

It turned out that in the eyes of others, they were no more than crawling insects.

For a moment, the living beings of the Primordial World felt utterly hopeless.

Just then, the person named Xiao Erbi spoke again.

"Why are you worrying about this? You're fretting over nothing. It's still uncertain whether this thing actually has that kind of power. Even if it does, without strength like Great God Pangu's, no one can wield a supreme treasure like this..."

"Look at how scared you are... You're nowhere near Senior Randeng... Senior Randeng has even stood up to several Saints! Hmph..."

"..."

At Xiao Erbi's words,

countless beings throughout the Primordial World were left speechless.

But they did come around.

Whether a world-destroying magic treasure existed was one thing.

Whether anyone could use it was another.

Besides, its Master wasn't going to destroy the world at the drop of a hat.

In that case, the living beings of the Primordial World really were far less composed than Daoist Randeng.

Just then, Daoist Randeng's rather lecherous voice rang out.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao Erbi... I didn't know you thought so highly of me. You flatter me, you flatter me."

"If I survive this tribulation, I'll seek you out for a few drinks... We'll get thoroughly drunk, as befits true heroes..."

The person named Xiao Erbi laughed heartily.

"Fellow Daoist Randeng, you're too kind... Of course, of course... If there's anything I can do for you, I'll gladly risk my life to accompany you..."

"..."

For a time, these two thick-skinned people struck up a friendship in front of all the living beings of the Primordial World.

After their exchange, even Saint Primordial no longer hated Daoist Randeng quite so much.

Their antics eased the fear in everyone's hearts, and before long, the crowd grew lively again.

After quite some time, the Violet Gold Qi in the sky finally began to roil again.

The living beings of the Primordial World grew tense once more.

Only two places remained on the Magic Treasure Ranking.

The magic treasure in second place was finally about to appear.

Everyone's anticipation reached its peak.

What could possibly rank above the World-Destroying Great Millstone?

Everyone looked up at the Heavenly Vault, afraid they might miss a single detail.

The Violet Gold Qi gathered in the sky for a moment.

Yet it formed only a cloud.

No one could make out what was inside.

Countless beings throughout the Primordial World stared wide-eyed at the sky, but they still couldn't tell what it was.

The Violet Gold Qi was simply too dense.

But the Great Dao Script had already appeared.

["Second place on the Magic Treasure Ranking: Hongmeng. A supreme Primordial Supreme Treasure. It is the source of everything in Chaos and the Primordial World, the progenitor of all laws, the origin of all things, and the source of all strength. Master: Changkong!"]
