Mythical Scroll Artist: Starting with the God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming

Chapter 287 Pansi Cave

But to be fair, the Scorpion Demon in Journey to the West is quite formidable.

Her signature move, the Poison Sting, was virtually invincible; even Buddha himself was stung by her.

Unfortunately, in the universe, everything has its counter, and in the end, it was easily subdued by the [Pleiades Star Lord].

It was this ordeal that made Monkey King realize the value of the Heavenly Court, which had all kinds of professional talents, and there was always one that suited him.

"Come on, I'll be the bait, and we'll just let your beloved concubine make the move, won't we?"

Wu Xian chuckled, ignoring Kun You Niang's reaction.

Buzz~!

As soon as the Golden Laurel Tree appeared, it took root in the mineral vein and began to absorb minerals.

Kun Youniang shook her head, both amused and exasperated, and silently prepared for battle.

"Don't worry~ With Pleiades Star Lord here, everything will be fine." Wu Xian, Pleiades Star Lord, was full of confidence.

After all, this battle was recorded in "Journey to the West," making it a sure win.

However, even after the laurel tree had drained the vein dry, the Scorpion Queen never appeared.

They remained completely silent, not daring to show their faces at all.

"Uh, you chickened out?" Wu Xian was secretly disappointed.

Upon seeing this, Kun Youniang couldn't help but have a complicated expression.

Honestly, if she were in the same situation as the Poisonous Scorpion Queen, she probably would have made the same choice.

It's just a mineral vein; there's really no need to risk your life.

"Alright, that's enough for today." Kun Youniang gestured for them to head back home.

Xue Zhengying clearly wanted to stay and spend some more time with the Empress, so Wu Xian naturally couldn't stay and be a third wheel.

After retreating all the way back to Yaoyang City, they went to the association, handed over Fei Jian's body, and collected the reward.

With 160,000 spirit crystals in hand, he immediately transferred 30,000 to each of the three Huang sisters, 30,000 to his second brother Xue Zhengying, and kept 40,000 for himself.

For him now, money has become just a number, and he no longer has to worry about it.

On the contrary, club members and users were ruined by the gacha system and became extremely poor.

But there's nothing we can do; that's just how the world is.

Wealth doesn't appear out of thin air, but it can be transferred from your pocket to someone else's.

After receiving the bounty, he couldn't help but talk to Cui Wenxuan about the situation of the evil god scroll painter.

The association has also acquired a low-ranking evil god scroll painter, but has not yet discovered any trace of the evil realm.

"Be careful what happens next. I have a feeling that there's something wrong with these evil god scroll painters," Cui Wenxuan warned.

"How to say?"

Cui Wenxuan pondered and said, "One is that the number of evil god's servants is huge, and the other is that they communicate closely with each other and provide great support. This is not quite the style I remember."

"After all, they are all working towards creating an evil realm."

This time, the insect realm didn't encounter any support from other evil gods, probably because the commotion was too great and scared away the reinforcements from the other evil gods.

However, judging from Cui Wenxuan's description, this group of evil god scroll painters was by no means a disorganized mess as expected.

"As for the fact that the number of evil god's servants is huge," Cui Wenxuan said seriously, "it is very likely that it involves several other cities in the surrounding area. The mayor will negotiate with the other cities to confirm this."

"Okay, take your time, no rush."

……

Upon returning to the North District, Wu Xian immediately began to take stock of the various materials provided by Kun Youniang.

He was thrilled by the vast amount of plant-based materials available.

In particular, the creation of scrolls in some subsequent fields requires a large amount of high-quality botanical materials.

On the contrary, plant-based gods and demons are relatively rare in previous myths and legends, and are mostly depicted in scrolls of spirits.

Regarding the spiritual items, the laurel tree is sufficient for now; the others are not urgent. We'll select a few high-quality materials, mix them into pigments, and begin by reconstructing and upgrading the laurel tree.

After a reconstruction, the laurel tree's spirituality increased to 165 points, and its five-dimensional attributes were also greatly improved, but it still couldn't get rid of the "crippled" label.

Wu Xian was mentally prepared for this.

After all, the laurel tree has already been awarded the Golden Scroll title, making it even more difficult to remove the "Fragment" label.

The alliance has been sending a lot of materials for the domain scrolls, and with the materials provided by Kunyouniang, things like the Spider Cave can already be put on the agenda.

Moreover, the materials from the Spider Cave and the Underworld do not overlap and do not affect each other.

If we can get the Spider Cave out as soon as possible, it will also make Kun You Niang pay more attention to it.

As for the plan to eliminate the evil god scroll painter, it will be a protracted battle.

If a large-scale cleanup were to be carried out in a short period of time, it would easily alert the evil god scroll painters and trigger a counterattack against Yaoyang City.

The current strategy is still to "boil the frog in lukewarm water" and defeat them one by one.

For the next two days, Wu Xian was completely immersed in drawing the Spider Cave.

To be honest, although the Spider Cave is a monster's lair, it's also a treasure trove, and drawing it wasn't easy at all.

However, adding "laurel branches" immediately made the drawing process much easier.

【Spider Cave - Blessed Land】

Version: Original (with gold embroidered border)

Grade: Silver switch

Domain Level: ★★★☆

Domain characteristics: Towering peaks reach into the clouds, and the earth's veins stretch far and wide, connecting to the sea and mountains.

Although it wasn't a good place for Wu Xian, it couldn't be called a paradise.

But for the Zerg's otherworldly side, it's an absolute game-changer, guaranteed to make Kun Youniang forget all about home.

With such a high-quality cave dwelling, why would she even bother with her dilapidated nest?
I got up and headed to the club. There was a match today. I'll take some time later to hand over [Spider Cave] to Kun Youniang and place it within her territory, officially establishing a Zerg outpost.

As for the subsequent guarding and operation of the outposts, we can leave it to Zhou Qi's guy.

Speaking of which, Zhou Qi's Netherworld Beasts are developing quite well these days, especially after having Xue Zhengying as a super tester, the combat power of the Netherworld Beasts series of scrolls has increased by leaps and bounds.

It gradually revealed its "fierce" characteristics, ignoring rules and status, and started biting randomly.

Even when facing the Pleiades Star Lord, he still retained some instinctive fear.

Facing all sorts of gods and demons, they knew nothing of fear; they just went straight for the kill, and the more they devoured, the more powerful they became.

Based on the current reactions from club players, Zhou Qi's Netherworld Beast series is very suitable for the league arena.

The most amazing thing is that this thing is just like otherworldly creatures. As long as it devours other scrolls, it can improve its level and grade. Unbeknownst to many, it has won the recognition of many consumers, and its sales are steadily increasing.

Not long ago, Zhou Qi, along with his Netherworld Beast, stormed into the Gold Rank League and officially became a Gold Rank player.

Here at the Underworld Club.

The portal to the Endless Sea has been completed, and many residents of Yaoyang City have come to join in the fun.

The plaza outside the club already has a bit of a "Dimensional Harbor" atmosphere, and has even attracted many businessmen and merchants, bringing a stable income to the club.

"You're quite the ferocious beast, aren't you?"

In the club's rest area, after chatting with Zhou Qi about the Insect Outpost, we inevitably watched a few videos of the Netherworld Beasts' matches.

One word: ruthless!
The Netherworld Beast is like a mad dog without reason; it charges in and attacks without thinking. If it wins, it can advance further; if it loses, it simply dies.

The only downside is that the breakage rate is a bit high.

"I can't compare to Brother Wu after all," Zhou Qi said with a modest smile. "However, I've been rethinking the concept of ferocious beasts lately. I feel that it doesn't have to be limited to the idea of ​​undead + insects. It can be expanded to the idea of ​​undead + strange beasts. What do you think, Brother Wu?"

"Great idea!" Wu Xian praised. "I'll think about it too, and we can create a Beast Universe and a Beast God Realm together."
