Chapter 232: Yuantu and Abi, the Twelve-Ranked Karma Fire Red Lotus!

[Weapon List No.25: Yuantu and Abi, Top-Grade Innate Spirit Treasures, Owner: Ancestor Minghe]

[Born from the Dao of Slaughter within the Heavenly Dao, these two swords are a pair. They allow one to kill without incurring karmic consequences. They are supreme treasures of the Dao of Slaughter!]

[Sun Wukong: Another treasure of Ancestor Minghe! I thought all his treasures would have ranked higher, but it seems some of his stuff is still coming up. These two swords together look pretty powerful!]

[Tathagata: Yuantu and Abi are supreme treasures of the Dao of Slaughter. They are among the rare weapons in the entire Primodial World that can kill without incurring karmic consequences. The stronger the wielder, the greater the swords' power!]

[Sun Wukong: Doesn't that mean Ancestor Minghe is terrifyingly powerful?]

[Taiyi Zhenren: Of course. In the Primodial World, apart from a few Saints, there are hardly any who can rival Ancestor Minghe!]

[Erlang Shen: Ancestor Minghe's strength is unique. No one in the Primodial World wants to be his enemy, which is a testament to his power!]

[Sun Wukong: With his strength and these two swords, there's probably no one he fears in the Primodial World. He could just go on a killing spree!]

[Ancestor Minghe: I wouldn't act as recklessly as you're suggesting. In the Primodial World, unless someone provokes me, I won't strike lightly. While these two innate treasure swords are powerful, they aren't meant for wanton slaughter!]

Even though these two swords allow one to kill without karmic repercussions, there aren't many beings in the Primodial World worth Ancestor Minghe's attention anymore.

In the past, he sought to gain merit by mimicking Nüwa's creation of the human race. He created the Asura race in the Blood Sea, but as expected, the merit he received was minimal.

Since then, unless absolutely necessary, Ancestor Minghe refrains from killing. Although the swords don't incur karmic consequences, every action is still observed by the Heavenly Dao.

Everyone in the Primodial World knows how terrifying karma is, especially karma incurred from killing. The stronger one is, the more cautious they are about taking life.

Many instances of this have occurred in the Primodial World, where even if one tries to avoid karmic retribution, it's impossible to escape.

Ancestor Minghe holds one of the Five Element Banners, and with the Yuantu and Abi swords, he's formidable in both offense and defense.

In this light, the treasures Ancestor Minghe possesses aren't much different from those of the Saints. Although he hasn't reached sainthood, he's likely one of the most difficult beings to provoke beneath that level.

Moreover, in the Blood Sea, he has 480 million clones. Even Saints would think twice before messing with him due to the immense trouble he'd cause.

As long as Ancestor Minghe doesn't go around provoking others, no one dares to offend him. Even if a Saint tried to scheme against him, it wouldn't be easy. As long as a single drop of blood remains in the Blood Sea, Ancestor Minghe can be reborn from it.

[Sun Wukong: It's good that this treasure has been revealed. I've learned how powerful it is, and if I ever encounter something like this, I'll just run!]

[Erlang Shen: With your strength, you wouldn't be able to escape anyway, but you're unlikely to ever come across it!]

[Nezha: It's curious though. Where can one even find such supreme slaughter treasures these days?]

[Guanyin Bodhisattva: Slaughter treasures don't fit into the Heavenly Dao. They can sever all karma beneath the Heavenly Dao, which shows just how terrifying they are!]

Ancestor Minghe was renowned from the dawn of the Primodial World. His strength and troublesome nature made him one of the top beings in existence.

However, as time passed, Ancestor Minghe stayed hidden, and the newer generations hardly know him. On the other hand, Saints are well-known, and their disciples are few but famous.

Similarly, the number of juniors who are aware of Ancestor Minghe is also very small, but for entirely different reasons.

Seeing the discussions about his strength in the livestream, Ancestor Minghe was pleased. From Sun Wukong's initial lack of understanding to his eventual amazement, the livestream had sparked a lot of conversation around his immense power.

[Sun Wukong: Alright, we've seen this treasure. I'll keep it in mind for now. When's the next one coming? The rankings are slowing down!]

[Manjushri Bodhisattva: It's likely because the remaining treasures are all incredibly powerful, and identifying them takes time. Besides, we've already seen so many!]

Though there was some impatience due to the wait, everyone in the livestream kept speculating about what would come next. Soon, the next ranking was revealed.

[Weapon List No.24: Twelve-Ranked Karma Fire Red Lotus, Top-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, Owner: Tongtian Jiaozhu]

[The Twelve-Ranked Karma Fire Red Lotus possesses both offensive and defensive capabilities. It releases endless Karma Fire that can burn all with the power of karmic retribution. Its defense is also top-tier; seated on the lotus, one is virtually invincible!]

This surprised many. The Twelve-Ranked Karma Fire Red Lotus in the hands of Tongtian Jiaozhu was immensely powerful. However, since Tongtian had many treasures and specialized in other types of weapons, he rarely used it.

Not many knew about the lotus, but now that it had appeared on the ranking, it became clear just how vast Tongtian's collection was.

[Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva: I didn't expect the Twelve-Ranked Karma Fire Red Lotus to be in Tongtian Jiaozhu's possession.]

If Ksitigarbha had it, he could have wielded it with great effect in managing the underworld. However, it was clear this treasure had no connection to him.

[Sun Wukong: What's the deal with this Twelve-Ranked Karma Fire Red Lotus? Doesn't Buddhism have a lot of things like this?]

[Guanyin Bodhisattva: That's just your lack of understanding. You don't know what these things truly are, which is why you'd say something like that. The Twelve-Ranked Karma Fire Red Lotus was formed from the splitting of the Chaos Green Lotus. There are three others like it, though they aren't as powerful. They simply go by different names.]

[Sun Wukong: Well, how should I know? If I knew everything, what use would you all be?]

[Taiyi Zhenren: You're the most shameless monkey I've ever seen!]
