Primordial Wilderness: I Am Hong Yun, and I Traded My Saint Position for a Wife at the Start, Chapter 31

Although Dijiang thought this, he knew that the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler was merely an ordinary Innate Spiritual Treasure in the hands of the Witch Clan.

Those who didn't comprehend the Power of Law within it could only use it as a weapon, not as a spiritual treasure.

But for Hong Yun and the others, it was completely different!

The Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler and the Heaven and Earth Yellow Exquisite Pagoda had both been formed from Heaven-Opening Merit when the world was created.

One was for offense, the other for defense. Both were top-tier Merit Supreme Treasures!

Thus, after Great God Pangu died, the two treasures fell separately into the hands of the Three Pure Ones and the Witch Clan.

The Heaven and Earth Yellow Exquisite Pagoda fell into Taiqing's hands.

As for the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler, it fell into Pangu Hall, just as the principle of a measuring ruler being guided by the heart dictated.

Dijiang and the others knew how precious the ruler was.

But there was no way they could use it!

Now that Hong Yun had appeared and shown kindness to the Witch Clan,

they would give him this treasure as thanks!

Dijiang smiled and said,

"Little Brother Hong Yun, our Witch Clan has never treated one of our own unfairly!"

"Take it quickly. Apart from you, there's no other member of the clan suited to this treasure!"

At this point, Hong Yun didn't bother refusing!

An offensive Merit Supreme Treasure!

If he still put on a show of refusing, that would be going too far.

Hong Yun beamed as he accepted the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler with both hands!

"Thank you, Brother Dijiang!"

Seeing Hong Yun's reaction, Dijiang smiled and nodded.

As soon as the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler touched Hong Yun's hand, he felt the eager spirit within the treasure.

It seemed to have been impatiently waiting for a new master!

Hong Yun wondered whether those muscle-bound men had been using the ruler as a greatsword all this time.

After all, the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler was indestructible and could change size at will.

It was also a Merit Supreme Treasure, so killing with it incurred no karmic consequence!

Even without unleashing the full power of the spiritual treasure, its body alone made it a powerful weapon!

Hong Yun gave the ruler in his hand a quick look.

He sent a thread of his magic power into it, but the power vanished like a drop of water into the sea.

"Hm?"

Hong Yun immediately poured in all his strength.

His boundless magic power, at the Great Luo realm, surged forth like the Heavenly River spilling over.

He crudely poured it into the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler!

"Whoosh!"

The Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler flew up from Hong Yun's hand!

Its original, dull-gray, unadorned appearance vanished in an instant.

It was now wreathed in purple light, sparkling and translucent!

At that moment,

dazzling rays of mysterious light burst from both ends of the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler, piercing through heaven and earth in an instant.

The spectacle around Hong Yun startled the noisy members of the Witch Clan.

Now, every one of them was staring intently in his direction!

Hong Yun sent his divine soul into the spiritual treasure's interior. Within lay an endless expanse of space.

It was filled with another kind of Power of Law!

It condensed into tangible form, hazy as smoke and mist, winding around Hong Yun as he entered.

This Power of Law was completely different from the Earth, Water, Fire, Wind that Hong Yun had mastered.

In such a short time,

it was unlikely that Hong Yun could comprehend it.

Following a thread of spiritual awareness, he made his way to the deepest part of the treasure's space.

There, two great characters, formed from Primordial Chaos energy, appeared.

They were the words "Measure Heaven"!

Hong Yun laid his divine soul over them.

That was enough to partially refine the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler and let him use some of its abilities.

Hong Yun withdrew his divine soul from the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler and stopped channeling his magic power.

A moment later,

the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler turned into a streak of purple light and slipped into Hong Yun's body.

It settled in his primordial spirit, right between the four powers of law: Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind.

At once, those laws seemed to have something to rely on,

as if they had found a foundation!

Circling the ruler, they began to cycle without end, turning ceaselessly!

"Hm?"

Hong Yun suddenly sensed that the four powers of law were slowly beginning to transform under the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler's suppression.

The process was incredibly slow for now, but it was a very good start!

They cycled through one another and transformed into one another!

As one grew, another diminished. How could Hong Yun ever worry that his powers of law would remain unbalanced?

At that moment, even Hong Yun couldn't help laughing heartily.

He cupped his hands toward Dijiang once more and said,

"Thank you, Brother Dijiang!"

Seeing the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler fall into Hong Yun's hands and regain its true form,

Dijiang was quite pleased.

After all, in his hands, the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler had been a treasure gathering dust.

He felt somewhat comforted now.

The other members of the Witch Clan had also been startled by the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler's display.

They had all been eagerly watching what was happening around Hong Yun!

Yet none of them felt jealous. It was just a magic treasure. Could it be better than the axes in their hands?

Zhen Yuan Zi was another matter.

Sitting behind Hong Yun, he had been left speechless the moment Dijiang mentioned the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler!

And when the treasure regained its radiance,

he nearly drooled.

Only after Hong Yun put the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler away did Zhen Yuan Zi reluctantly tear his gaze from it.

He said to Hong Yun with a wistful sigh,

"Little Brother Hong Yun, now I finally understand what you meant when you said you wanted everything!"

"You got both the man and the treasure!"

Hong Yun gave Zhen Yuan Zi a smug look in response.

Hearing Zhen Yuan Zi say this, Dijiang's eyes lit up, and anticipation showed in his gaze.

He turned to Zhen Yuan Zi and said,

"If you're interested, Brother..."

Zhen Yuan Zi's face changed drastically.
