This truly made many great powers in the Primordial Chaos World lose face.

After all, over three thousand people had gone to the Purple Cloud Palace to hear the Dao Ancestor lecture, yet no one expected that a mere boy attendant would seize the advantage.

["Magic Treasure Ranking, Ninety-Fourth: Pure Glass Bottle. Ranked as a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, possessing the ability to purify all things in the world.

As each treasure manifested, piece after piece of information also continuously appeared.

The exclamations throughout the entire Primordial Chaos World grew increasingly pronounced.

The voices also became louder and louder.

Clearly, the higher the ranking, the more the emotions of living beings surged.

Not only did it feast their eyes, but it also broadened their horizons.

The moment those great powers' supreme treasures made their appearance.

Every single treasure was enough to astonish everyone.

Yet a doubt also rose in their hearts.

The treasures on the ranking were either those of the saints' disciples or those of the Demon Race's great powers.

The treasures that shook the Primordial Chaos World had now almost all appeared...

What treasures were left next? Could it be that many unknown treasures were still hidden? Which were truly stronger, and which weaker?

With such thoughts in mind, everyone's anticipation grew ever higher.

In an extremely mysterious valley within the Primordial Chaos World.

Inside the valley stood an immensely grand and resplendent hall.

On the hall's door plaque were written three large characters: "Heavenly Machine Tower."

At this moment, inside the hall, an extraordinarily handsome man was reclining sideways on a large chair with a wicked grin.

Wearing a sinister expression, he drank fine wine, utterly at ease.

By his side was a woman dressed in red.

That woman in red had an incomparably enchanting appearance, possessing a stunning beauty that could topple nations.

At this moment, the woman in red was earnestly playing the zither.

The sound of the zither was sometimes ethereal, like silk fluttering in the wind; sometimes deep and steady, like the rustling of pines on a cliff.

Sometimes the notes were impassioned, sometimes the melody was ethereal.

In the very center of the hall.

There was also a woman wearing a black gauze.

This woman was of breathtaking beauty, with bright eyes and white teeth, and a Shore Flower painted between her brows that was stunning beyond compare.

Her eyes, capable of enchanting all living beings, were filled with tenderness.

At this moment, she danced gracefully to the zither's music, her black gauze robe fluttering in the wind, like a fairy, a fairy untouched by worldly affairs, so mysterious, so pure, that one did not wish to disturb her, nor to defile her.

Truly a woman who outshone all others in the Primordial Chaos World.

Now she stopped her graceful dance steps and spoke to the man lounging sideways:

"Master, that scroll of yours has run off to cause mischief. Should we take it back?"

The sinister man was slightly displeased:

"What does it matter? Continue the music, continue the dance!"

The woman in black gauze pouted playfully.

Then she began to dance gracefully once more...

At this moment, everyone was waiting for the Magic Treasure Ranking to continue its reveal.

The entire Primordial Chaos World was vast and boundless.

To ordinary cultivators, it was nearly infinite.

Perhaps some truly unknown treasures were indeed hidden, who could say.

Almost all living beings had their eyes fixed on the Primordial Violet Gold List that covered the heavens and the earth.

The ranking had now been announced down to the fifties.

Most of the magic treasures that shook the Primordial World had already appeared.

Yet there were still over fifty spots left unrevealed.

This was rather intriguing.

The people's curiosity grew ever stronger.

Every single one of them was tense.

Many were also discussing among themselves.

"The treasures revealed so far, aside from those belonging to saints' disciples, many are in the hands of the Demon Race. Perhaps the Demon Race is the true protagonist of the future..."

"Speak not rashly. As everyone knows, the Witch Race's influence is even greater than the Demon Race's. The Witch Race is born with a flawed Primordial Spirit, but their physical bodies are extremely formidable. If the Physical Body Ranking is ever released in the future, the Witch Race will surely steal the spotlight. It's too early to claim the Demon Race rules the Primordial World."

Hearing this, another person quickly shut his mouth.

After all, those great Demon Race and Witch Race experts were still watching. If he offended them, even a random underling sent their way would be enough to make him suffer.

"Have you all noticed? The treasures famous throughout the Primordial World have basically all appeared... yet there are still over fifty vacancies ahead... What exactly is going on?"

This was clearly also a great expert. As soon as he spoke, it immediately resonated with other experts.

It was indeed true, and quite thought-provoking.

"I really hope they announce it quickly. I can't wait to know what other treasures are hidden in the Primordial World..."

"If the owner lacks sufficient background or strength, once exposed, it will surely invite deadly disaster. Perhaps the Primordial World will once again be swept by a storm of blood..."

As the crowd buzzed with discussion.

The Magic Treasure List was being revealed one by one.

Finally, it reached the fifty-first spot.

Everyone trembled with excitement.

After this treasure was revealed, it would be the top fifty of the Primordial Magic Treasure List.

That would be the true peak showdown.

Another beam of golden light fell from the massive Primordial Violet Gold List.

This golden light manifested in the air, finally revealing a ruler-like treasure.

This ruler was somewhat peculiar, part ruler, part Jade Knife.

When the crowd saw this ruler, they gasped in shock.

Because this ruler was far too famous. Many had guessed it would rank at least in the top twenty... or even have a chance to contend for the top ten.

Yet they never expected it to only rank fifty-first...

This was utterly baffling.

Many people groaned in pain in their hearts.

Their boundless reverence for this treasure dimmed.

Could it be that this treasure wasn't as powerful as legend claimed?

Was it merely impressive on the surface?

This left them deeply disappointed.

Even the Master of this ruler, upon seeing it rank only fifty-first, was greatly disappointed, his face faintly paling.

He had held such high hopes for this treasure.

This treasure had never let him down.

Since ancient times, it had followed him, slaying countless enemies.

In his heart, this treasure could at least firmly rank in the top fifteen... or even have a chance to break into the top ten.
