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

Chapter 353 The Old Master Returns in Grandeur

boom!
The golden Dharma image behind the upper-level man shattered, turning into countless specks of energy, like countless golden petals.

In the complete silence, the old man's figure gradually became clear. His spiritual power, essence, and blood energy surged rapidly, forming a series of peculiar spiritual energy circuits. These surging spiritual energy circuits intertwined to form a set of energy patterns resembling a tiger's head.

The old man looked at the ancient starry sky that stretched out in the sky with a hint of surprise.

He immediately grabbed the headless body of the man on the upper floor, and with a swift movement, pulled out a series of LED light strips resembling a neural network from the mangled neck.

"grandfather?!"

The moment he saw the figure clearly, Wu Xian's eyes involuntarily reddened, and he subconsciously wanted to shout out, but found that his voice had already become hoarse from the shock of the old man.

If I'm not mistaken, the old man seems to have recovered to the ninth level of spiritual power cultivation.

But that's not the point. The point is the terrifying power displayed by that level nine spiritual power cultivation, and the peculiar spiritual energy circuits surrounding his body. The power flowing through those circuits is like a nuclear bomb that could be detonated at any moment.

The key point is that he kicked the upper-class man's "big watermelon" so hard it was shattered, which is simply unbelievable.

"Holy crap, a level 10 body cultivator!" Wang Xiaocong exclaimed in surprise. "Where did this god-level body cultivator come from?"

Wang Fengnian, standing to the side, had a burning gaze, and his aged face was flushed with excitement, giving him a radiant appearance.

Gazing at the aged figure above, memories seemed to be instantly pulled back to those glorious years.

In his youth, he once gazed upon this figure in such a way, and was deeply captivated by it, which led him down a path of no return.

"Ten-stage body cultivator?" Wu Xian asked, puzzled.

Wang Xiaocong stammered, "It's...it's...the ceiling of spiritual energy body cultivation. My old man has cultivated for most of his life and he's only at the ninth level of body cultivation."

"Oh." Wu Xian was puzzled but impressed.

"Look at the tiger image formed by the spiritual energy circuits around the boss! That's the legendary [Spiritual Image] unique to tenth-stage body cultivators!" Wang Xiaocong introduced excitedly, gesturing wildly.

"Ten stages?" Wang Fengnian smiled inwardly, looking at Wu Xian with burning eyes, and said succinctly, "A humanoid black scroll, that should make it clear, right? Moreover, it's the kind where the star rating and life mark are naturally maxed out, and the five-dimensional attributes and spirituality can be improved without limit."

Wu Xian's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly gained a clear understanding of the old man's terrifying strength.

A humanoid black scroll? Or the kind with maxed-out levels and infinitely growing attributes?

"Grandpa, he..."

Who would have thought that the old man who was raised by picking up trash in the shantytown would be such a "superman"?
"What? He's Brother Xian's grandfather?" Wang Xiaocong exclaimed in surprise.

……

Over Yaoyang City.

Yang Zhizheng, Cui Wenxuan, and the others were stunned for a long time before they recovered from the shock.

“Lingxiang, a tenth-level body cultivator? I wonder who this senior is…” the provincial alliance president said in disbelief.

Cui Wenxuan and Yang Zhizheng glanced at Wang Fengnian below and vaguely understood something.

The more they understood, the more their hearts pounded.

Then look at the general from the military headquarters standing to the side. The way he looked at the old man was like he was looking at an idol, and the admiration in his eyes was almost overflowing.

He was a legendary figure whose story circulated within military circles but could not be openly discussed.

A legend in the hearts of the older generation of military leaders.

I never expected that this legendary figure would still be alive.

While everyone was shocked, Wu Mingchang calmly swept his gaze over them and asked, "Do you feel any urge to report my information to your superiors?"

"How could this be?" the military general stammered excitedly. "I just never expected you to still be alive." He was joking; they were all ganging up to hunt down high-ranking officials, so naturally their sides were with Wu Mingchang.

After all, the person in front of us is the true pioneer in resisting the rule of the upper class!
"Ten-stage body cultivators are truly terrifying!" Cui Wenxuan exclaimed, clasping his hands in respect.

"I, Yang Chi, am honored to have the opportunity to meet Senior Wu," Yang Zhizheng followed suit, expressing his respect.

Faced with the flattery of the crowd, Wu Mingchang waved his hand indifferently, "It's rare to catch such a high-level prey, let's talk about how to divide it first?"

"This..." Yang Zhizheng and the others exchanged smiles, "We leave it all to you, senior."

Wu Mingchang chuckled, casually tore off a string of LED strips from the neural network-like structure, and tossed the remaining LED strips to the crowd.

Whoosh!
The next second, he transformed into a blur and appeared in front of Wu Xian and the other two below.

"Your demeanor is as impressive as ever!" Wang Fengnian greeted him with a smile.

"Hello, Grandpa Wu, I am Wang Xiaocong... I live at No. 28, Row 4, Chunyang Villa District, New City." Wang Xiaocong said incoherently.

Seeing this, Wang Fengnian secretly shook his head.

"Not bad, little guy," Wu Mingchang chuckled and patted Wang Xiaocong on the shoulder to encourage him. "Keep up the good work. Your talent for physical cultivation seems to be much stronger than your grandfather's."

Wang Xiaocong nodded excitedly, almost crying with joy.

What an honor it is to have a tenth-level body cultivation master pat you on the shoulder!
"Grandpa, you're finally back."

Wu Xian's eyes reddened as he spoke softly.

The reunion of men as family members was devoid of enthusiastic embraces and moving words.

"Xian'er's growth these days is truly unbelievable to Grandpa," Wu Mingchang exclaimed. "Did you summon that strange starry sky just now?"

“Yes,” Wu Xian nodded and smiled, “I’ll tell you about this in detail later.”

Wu Mingchang wasn't in a hurry. He reached out and handed the string of LED colorful light strips to Wu Xian, saying, "Take this. You might need it if you want to make a black axis scroll in the future."

"Is this the source of the divine power of the upper class?" Wu Xian examined it curiously.

Wu Mingchang nodded calmly: "A kind of law essence refined using special methods. It was originally a product created by the first generation of sages to develop the Black Scroll. Until someone discovered that this thing could be implanted into the human body and bring god-like power to oneself, everything changed."

In just a few words, Wu Xian learned a lot of important information.

The source of laws?

It is like an energy substance that is more powerful, purer, and closer to the essence of creation than ordinary laws.

"So the upper world rules the world with this kind of power?" Wu Xian asked thoughtfully.

“Hmm,” Wu Mingchang said calmly as always, “What should have been a benefit to all people has ultimately become the foundation of some people’s desires and rights, completely deviating from the original intentions of our forefathers.”

These days, it's not easy for those in the lower realms to access the source of laws.

Wu Xian understood, "The methods for production and refining have been monopolized and blocked by the higher-ups?"

The old man remained noncommittal, then said with a hint of sarcasm, "Unfortunately, external forces are ultimately just external forces. Power that doesn't belong to them is never easy to control. The deeper they go in relying on this power, the more problems the upper echelons will face."

Ultimately, the most reliable way to acquire strength is through one's own diligent cultivation.

Wu Xian carefully sensed the source of the laws flowing within the LED light strip. Although he couldn't quite understand it, the image of Third Master Xue naturally appeared in his mind.

In his view, Third Master Xue might be able to crack the method of refining the source of this law.

As they spoke, the master sister and the others from the club also gathered around curiously, looking at the old man as if he were a deity.
