Primordial Era: A man at the mouth of the Guanjiang River marries the Third Holy Mother.

How could this be? How is this possible! Right under their noses, in the temples they have cultivated for countless eons, there is actually a supreme innate treasure that they have never discovered before?

At this moment, Zhunti's heart was bleeding!

I regret it so much! I'm so incredibly regretful!

If I had known, I should have just suppressed this kid. Why did I even make a bet?

Now look what's happened! The treasure has been unearthed, but according to the bet, it belongs to someone else!

He watched helplessly as the beast was taken, and the pain was worse than death!

The Sage's face, which had been contorted with bitterness, was now so bitter it seemed to drip with tears. His lips trembled, and he couldn't utter a single word.

Just as the three sages were shocked by this aura, a heavenly sound that made his heart skip a beat rang in Chen Changsheng's mind.

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations, Master! You have unearthed a seven-star treasure trove and obtained a twelfth-grade Black Lotus of Annihilation!]

boom!

Chen Changsheng's mind went blank for a moment, and he was completely stunned.

A tenth...twelfth grade world-destroying black lotus?!

What the hell!What the hell!What the hell!

His heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of his throat.

That was the innate treasure of the Demon Ancestor Rahu, one of the top defensive spiritual treasures in the primordial world! It and his God-Slaying Spear were originally powerful weapons of the same origin!

I'm on my way to collecting the complete Demon Ancestor set!

We've struck it rich! We've really struck it rich this time!

Suppressing his overwhelming joy, Chen Changsheng knew that now was not the time to get excited.

The baby hasn't fully emerged from the ground yet!

He looked at the place at the bottom of the pit, where an aura of destruction was constantly emanating, took a deep breath, and raised the treasure-digging shovel in his hand again.

It's time to bring this legendary treasure back to the light of day!

Under the extremely tense gazes of the three sages and all the myriad beings of the primordial world.

Chen Changsheng used all his strength to aim the shovel at the source of the aura and pry it down hard!

"Get up!"

Boom—!

As Chen Changsheng pried down with the last spadeful, a terrifying aura, billions of times stronger than before, suddenly awoke, like an ancient ferocious beast that had slumbered for countless epochs!

A pure black beam of light, carrying the destructive laws powerful enough to annihilate everything, shot into the sky!

The entire Mount Sumeru trembled violently under the impact of this aura.

The endless Buddha light that shone throughout the west was completely melted away and retreated step by step in front of this black pillar of light, as if it had encountered its nemesis!

At this moment, the sky seemed to be stained with a layer of despairing ink.

"Such a powerful source of destruction!"

The voice of the Tongtian Cult Leader also carried a hint of amazement.

Zhunti and Jieyin, on the other hand, had bloodshot eyes, staring intently at the deep pit, their breathing becoming extremely heavy.

Treasure!

Absolutely a rare innate treasure!

Before everyone's shocked eyes, a black lotus platform, entirely formed from the laws of destruction, slowly rose from the deep pit.

The lotus has twelve petals, each one as black as ink, engraved with profound and mysterious Dao patterns of destruction. Just one glance at it is enough to cause a stinging pain to one's primordial spirit, as if one is about to be dragged into endless depravity and destruction.

The Twelfth Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus!

Legend has it that Chen Changsheng actually dug out the supreme treasure of the Demon Ancestor Rahu from under Mount Sumeru!

Saint Zhunti looked at the black lotus, his heart aching so much he could hardly breathe, his entire face contorted in pain.

It's his! It should have been his!

Looking at the world-destroying black lotus floating in front of him, Chen Changsheng was filled with emotion.

This treasure is truly amazing; its defensive capabilities are absolutely top-tier in the primordial world.

but……

He sensed the pure destructive power of the Black Lotus and then felt the thunderous power within his own body.

It doesn't seem like a perfect match.

His path is the thunder that wields divine punishment and judges all things; it is supreme yang and unyielding, a majestic heavenly might. This black lotus, however, represents pure destruction, the end, and utter ruin.

Although they don't conflict, they are ultimately not the most suitable for me.

Just as he was pondering, a figure suddenly flashed through his mind.

Yang Jiao!

His brother-in-law!

After all, this brother-in-law had just been rescued, and he hadn't given him any treasures, so this was perfect.

Yes! It's settled then!

This precious item will be given to my second brother-in-law as a gift!

Firstly, it would greatly enhance the brother-in-law's power, and secondly, it would make their relationship even more unbreakable.

This is a huge profit!

Having figured this out, Chen Changsheng had no more hesitation.

He reached out and gently beckoned to the world-destroying black lotus that exuded an aura of endless destruction.

As if sensing the call, the black lotus transformed into a stream of light and obediently landed in his palm.

The moment Chen Changsheng grasped the Black Lotus of Annihilation, its immense destructive power surged into his body through his arm, only to be easily suppressed by the even more domineering Great Dao Thunder within him.

Holding this innate treasure, he slowly turned around, looked at the two saints opposite him whose faces had turned green to black, and revealed a bright and innocent smile.

"Seniors, you see, I didn't lie, did I?"

"As I've said, I have an extraordinary karmic connection with this Mount Sumeru."

The Law of Fate...

Upon hearing those two words, Sage Zhunti felt a sweetness in his throat, and almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Damn it!

This is the karmic connection of my Western religion! You just forcibly took it from me with a broken shovel!

"The 10th... 12th grade Black Lotus of Annihilation... the supreme treasure of Demon Ancestor Rahu..."

Zhunti's voice was dry and hoarse, each word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth. He stared intently at the black lotus in Chen Changsheng's hand, the jealousy and regret in his eyes almost tangible.

"How...how did it get here?"

The Sage who guided the way let out a long sigh, a sigh that seemed to drain all his strength, leaving only endless bitterness and resignation on his face.

Chen Changsheng casually tossed the World-Destroying Black Lotus in his hand, his relaxed and carefree demeanor causing Zhunti's eyes to twitch wildly.

"So, according to our previous bet, this treasure is now mine."

Chen Changsheng said with a smile, then glanced meaningfully upwards. In the torn void, the chilling killing intent of the Four Swords of Zhuxian had not diminished at all.

"So, does that mean all the unpleasantness between us is wiped clean?"

Cancel?

Zhunti was so angry that he trembled all over.

You fucking humiliated my Western Sect in front of the entire prehistoric world, stole my sect's most treasured artifact, and now you want to call it even?

But what could he do?

They made the bet themselves, and Heaven is their witness.

Above their heads, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation of that madman Tongtian was still hanging.

If he dares to say "no," Mount Sumeru might really be demolished in the next second.

They're going to suffer this loss in silence!

Just then, in the void, the voice of the Tongtian Sect Leader, filled with joyful laughter, resounded like a final judgment.
