A bar in Tokyo—
Jing Linglu, looking like a carefree scoundrel, looked out the window at the [Divine Artifact Ranking] in the sky and downed his beer in one gulp. Judging from his current appearance, you would never guess that he is one of the famous Twelve Divine Generals of the Yin-Yang Hall.
"Wedge up! Not bad, you actually made the list!"
Jing Linglu knocked on the golden-haired boy leaning against the side, who was holding a long sword and had an extremely crazed expression. He was in the human form of Wedge-Breaking.
He hadn't expected that a shikigami like Wedge-Bear would be classified as a weapon on the [Divine Weapon Ranking], and even make the list. It was a pleasant surprise, but there was something else that concerned Jing Linglu even more...
His eyes were fixed on the detailed information of the item ranked ninety-fourth on the Artifact Ranking: Raven Feather Robe, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
"Karaba-ori... Tsuchimikado Harutora/Tsuchimikado Yako, hahaha...this is the most interesting one!"
"Those old guys in the Yin-Yang Hall and Yin-Yang Academy have all been fooled by Tsuchimikado. They've been completely fooled. Tsuchimikado Natsume is just a pawn that Tsuchimikado deliberately placed in front of the public to hide the true Tsuchimikado Yako Tensei."
Jing Linglu stood up from her seat, and at the same time, pulled Xie Ba, who was next to her, up as well.
"Let's go, Wedge..."
"I remember that guy is a student of the Onmyo Academy, the reincarnation of Tsuchimikado Yako. We can't miss this good show!"
Similar scenes didn't only happen to Jing Linglu. It's fair to say that any force, organization, or family belonging to the Yin-Yang Dao instantly understood what Tsuchimikado had deliberately hidden after seeing the information about Karasu Haori.
The owner of the Karasuhaori—Tsuchimikado Harutora/Tsuchimikado Yako!!!
With just a little thought, everything became clear instantly.
Tsuchimikado Harutora is the reincarnation of Tsuchimikado Yako. However, Tsuchimikado, knowing all this, hid Tsuchimikado Harutora while promoting Tsuchimikado Natsume to attract attention, making everyone subconsciously believe that Tsuchimikado Natsume is the reincarnation of Tsuchimikado Yako.
It's likely that Tsuchimikado, in all his calculations, never anticipated this—
The secrets you've been hiding will be exposed in this sudden [Dimensional Ranking].
The revelation of Tsuchimikado Yakou's reincarnation identity was an extremely shocking event for the entire Onmyōdō (the Yin-Yang Path).
The most devoted followers of Tsuchimikado Yoko were especially excited, dreaming of restoring the glory of Onmyōdō under his leadership.
"Before the Onmyōdō and Onmyōjuku can react, let our people bring Natsume and Harutora back to the main family."
Upon realizing that they had been exposed, Tsuchimikado Taijun, the head of the Tsuchimikado family, immediately gave the order.
"Hopefully, it's not too late!"

Chapter Sixty-Seven: The Opportunities for Cao Cao and Others
The tremors that occur in the Yin-Yang Dao.
Ordinary people would be completely unaware of this, and even if the gods knew about it, they would not be interested in it at all. At most, they would just look at the Wedge, the Raven Feather Robe, and other weapons to see what was so special about them that they could be listed on the [Divine Weapon Ranking].
The rest were of no concern. After all, the Yin-Yang Dao was just a minor path in the eyes of the gods, capable of producing at most Demon King-level powerhouses. To produce a transcendent being was simply a pipe dream.
The release of the [Artifact Ranking] continues—
……
[Ranked 90th: The Demon King's Hammer]
[Owner: Yu Zhang]
Master's race: Yokai
[Introduction: The Demon King's Hammer was formed from Yamamoto's heart after it became a demon. Humans once used the Demon King's Hammer to wipe out all the tanuki demons in Shikoku. It has the ability to convert the slain demons into its own power, and its strength is extremely high...]
[Ranking Reward: Basic Forging and Refining]
……
[Ranked 8th, 23rd, and 19th: Dragon Hand]
Owner: Siegfried
[Owner's Race: Human]
[Description: A divine artifact created by the God of the Bible, capable of granting its host the power of dragon claws...]
[Ranking Reward: Intermediate Forging and Refining]
……
[Additional Description: Divine Artifacts—Extraordinary power created by the gods and residing within specific humans. Feeding on the wielder's thoughts, they continuously evolve and grow stronger. They are a power bestowed upon humanity by the God of the Bible to contend against divine and demonic races.]
……
The appearance of the additional description of the [divine artifact] immediately caused ordinary humans to exclaim in surprise.
"We were wrong, we were wrong...we were all wrong!"
"It turns out that divine artifacts are not exclusive to the gods; we humans can also have divine artifacts residing within our bodies, thereby gaining supernatural power."
"...The God of the Bible, God, truly exists, truly is merciful..."
"Do you all remember that there were quite a few wielders of divine artifacts on the [Transcendent Ranking], as well as that so-called God-Destroying Tool..."
"..."
"That's right..."
"It seems that we humans will also have a place on the [Artifact Ranking]."
"I just don't know what conditions are required for the artifact to be possessed, if..."
"Great God, merciful Lord..."
this moment--
Countless believers knelt on the ground, offering their most devout and humble faith...
Meanwhile, Saint, who was in seclusion in the [Dimensional Gap] recovering from his injuries, seemed to sense all of this, and a holy and benevolent smile appeared on his lips.
In an instant.
The statues in the cathedrals seemed to respond to the call of God, manifesting themselves before the people, their divine radiance illuminating miles around.
Some high-ranking church officials were thrilled; for centuries, for centuries…
This was the first time God had so clearly displayed a miracle, and the seraphim in heaven, Gabriel, Michael, and others were even more so. God had now manifested His divinity, and it was clear that God's injuries had improved remarkably.
The gods also witnessed this, their faces turning somewhat gloomy!
Although I had long been mentally prepared for the worst regarding the return of the God of the Bible, I still couldn't remain calm when I saw this scene.
Meanwhile, on the side of ordinary humans—
After learning that humans also possess supernatural powers, many ambitious people have started to have crooked ideas, wanting to obtain artifacts through dirty means so that they can also gain supernatural powers and even become powerful.
Unfortunately, these people were destined to fail when they started planning.
If they can't even figure out what the "divine artifact" is, then wanting to seize it is utter nonsense and wishful thinking.
……
Hidden in a deep valley are two heroes—
"Ranked eighty-ninth on the [Divine Artifact Ranking], this is probably the lowest among all divine artifacts."
Siegfried said with a face full of regret.
"Your combat strength doesn't come from the Dragon Hand."
Cao Cao, who was wielding the [Twilight Holy Lance] on the open ground nearby, said casually.
The Twilight Holy Spear seemed to come alive in his hands, each move extremely sharp and exquisite. The airflow followed the spearhead, sometimes gathering, sometimes spreading... making muffled sounds, and the towering trees beside him trembled, with countless green leaves falling like celestial maidens scattering flowers.
"That's true, but I still can't help feeling a strange sense of loss."
Siegfried placed his hands behind his head, leaning against the rock wall beside him, a smile playing on his lips.
He was originally the church's top exorcist, known as "Demon Emperor Sword Sieg". His combat power relied on the demon sword and his own body. The artifact Dragon Hand was more of an auxiliary tool. Moreover, the artifact Dragon Hand was ranked low on the [Artifact Ranking], but that did not mean that the demon sword he held was also ranked low. The fact that the demon sword was not on the list was the best proof.
"Cao Cao, this time our [Heroic Faction] can fully utilize the ranking rewards of the [Divine Weapon Ranking] to achieve a qualitative improvement in strength."
Although no one knows yet what the effects of the [Ranking Reward: Forging and Refining] in the [Artifact Ranking] are, one thing is certain: the [Ranking Rewards] from the [Dimensional Ranking] are all of high quality, especially for the current rankers.
The vast majority of the members of the Heroic Faction possess 647 extremely powerful artifacts and even divine-destroying tools. The announcement of the Artifact Ranking is a great opportunity for them. He can already see the scene of Heroic Faction members bravely climbing the rankings.
"Our strength has greatly increased, and our plans will proceed much more smoothly, yielding greater rewards. At the very least, the Azure Emperor won't take all the benefits away."
Siegfried said with a smile.
Cao Cao stopped what he was doing, put away the Twilight Holy Spear, and looked up at the Divine Weapon Ranking in the sky, muttering to himself.
"I wonder where the [Twilight Holy Lance] will rank on the [Artifact Ranking], in the top ten or the top three?"
Then, he said seriously to Siegfried, "The publication of the [Artifact Ranking] is beneficial to us, but it also has many drawbacks. At the very least, the operation of the summoning order will have to be more covert."
“I understand this matter.”
Siegfried nodded.
This time, the [Divine Artifact Ranking] will inevitably reveal all the holders of powerful divine artifacts and divine destruction tools. If the gods discover that too many holders of divine destruction tools are secretly gathering, they will inevitably have some suspicions.

Chapter Sixty-Eight: Artificial Artifacts
After the artifacts created by the God of the Bible were published on the "Artifact Ranking".
The curiosity of many ordinary people was completely aroused, and they all wanted to see how many powerful artifacts were hidden among humans, what kind of abilities they had, and whether the artifacts of the gods were more powerful or the artifacts of humans were superior.
With this curiosity and anticipation, I watched as the weapon projections and descriptions were continuously published on the [Artifact Ranking].
unexpected.
A weapon that surprised many, or more accurately, a new type of weapon, has emerged—
