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

How chaotic can Chapter 425 be?

"Perhaps this was the original intention of the first generation of upper-level founders," Cui Wenxuan sighed softly.

Wu Xian expressed his strong agreement.

The initial order that the first generation of powerful figures painstakingly established was essentially to buy the human world some space and time for development.

Instead of allowing the current corrupt officials at the top to remain high and mighty, attempting to dominate everything.

“As the power of other dimensions gradually spirals out of control, the future world will once again descend into chaos,” Cui Wenxuan said calmly. “But all of this is something we should have faced long ago.”

In the near future, we will also face everything that our ancestors faced and experience the hardships they endured.

As for that new order, it is up to you, the younger generation, to strive to find and pursue it.

When he said those words, Cui Wenxuan's eyes gleamed with hope and anticipation for the future.

The future ultimately belongs to the young.

What the older generation needs to do is to delegate authority to the younger generation and help them drive the wheels of history forward.

Instead of pursuing immortality or clinging to power.

If you are truly an extraordinary and capable person who can drive historical development and progress, it wouldn't hurt to grant you immortality. People would love for you to live on forever and lead humanity towards a better future.

The key point is that the people in the upper echelons of society these days have absolutely no skills.

For nearly a thousand years, there has been no movement at all, and now it is the lower classes who have to break this deadlock.

"But speaking of which, what position do those true gods and great demons from other worlds occupy now?" Wu Xian asked, frowning.

"Judging from the actions of the four great gods, they are probably aiming for harmonious coexistence and for each world to develop its own path," Cui Wenxuan analyzed. "Or rather, they are aiming for a completely new and stable order."

Wu Xian understood; at least everyone's goals were aligned.

“But in this process, disagreements and conflicts are inevitable,” Cui Wenxuan pondered. “This is something that all parties will have to face in the future.”

In summary, it can be said that conflict is inevitable, as long as everyone is moving towards a new era and a new order.

"Speaking of which, how's your Eight Immortals Masters Scroll coming along?" Wu Xian changed the subject. "Why not join the Holy Spirit Domain like me and let my divine illustrations take you on a ride?"

“Uh,” Cui Wenxuan naturally knew about Wu Xian joining the Holy Spirit Realm, and shook his head and laughed, “I’ll pass, I’m not really compatible with the Holy Spirit Realm, and the realm here in the association is doing quite well.”

"The Association's Divine Realm?" Wu Xian couldn't help but ask curiously.

Although I've always known that the association has its own divine realm, I don't hear about it much on a regular basis.

"Compared to the divine realms of various dojos, the divine realms of the association are not developing very well because their systems are too mixed," Cui Wenxuan said with a smile. "But as the saying goes, a dog doesn't mind a poor home; there's no place like home."

"With such a long history, the Divine Realm should be doing quite well, right?" Wu Xian asked, puzzled.

"Ahem... well..."

Cui Wenxuan gave an awkward smile and briefly explained the awkward situation of the Association's Divine Realm.

Simply put, the sheer number and variety of images she's collected are too great, and the sheer volume is enormous. This constant expansion is severely dragging down the overall system, making it difficult to maintain stability.

In fact, there have been several instances of "shutdown" in the past, with the longest shutdown lasting a full fifteen days.

In comparison, the elite approach taken by various dojos has a better future.

To put it simply, the Association's Divine Realm doesn't even have an official name to this day; it's just called the Association's Divine Realm.

"How chaotic could it be?" Wu Xian couldn't help but wonder.

"This..." Cui Wenxuan was both amused and exasperated. "Integration is definitely out of the question. It can only be maintained at a precarious state. The headquarters gave up on development two hundred years ago, treating it merely as a place for ordinary scroll painters to settle down."

However, occasionally some well-developed divine images will appear and be transferred to the divine domains of various grand halls.

Over the years, it has also provided a lot of talent to various martial arts schools, which is a major reason why the association has been able to maintain its current status. Hearing this, Wu Xian finally understood.

The Association's Divine Realm is like an "adult education institution" in the Divine Realm, providing and sending talents to various Grand Hall Divine Realms (top universities) every year.

If given the chance, Wu Xian would still like to see the Association's divine realm.

The system is too complicated and the structure is too chaotic. This is a mess for others, but it may not be a bad thing for Wu Xian.

After all, his future system is already incredibly complex, encompassing everything.

If there's a chance to integrate and reorganize the mess that is the Association's Divine Realm and pick it up again, it's better than starting from scratch.

But the premise is that the Association's divine realm can still be saved.

"Come on, let's take the younger generation to see this," Wu Xian said enthusiastically. "I just want to see just how chaotic it can get."

Cui Wenxuan's expression was strange. "What, you want to join the Association's Divine Realm?"

Although he sincerely wanted Wu Xian to join the Association's Divine Realm, he knew it was unrealistic.

“A chaotic divine realm is naturally not worth seeing, but a divine realm that is chaotic to a certain extent is still worth a visit to broaden one’s horizons,” Wu Xian joked.

Cui Wenxuan was both amused and exasperated.

Immediately, he and Wu Xian opened their seas of consciousness to each other, and both of them sank into the void of laws, leading Wu Xian to the "bottomless" divine domain of the association.

……

Not long after, Wu Xian, who had just left the association, was still in a state of deep shock.

The chaos within the Association's divine realm truly broadened his horizons.

It's like a giant "garbage dump," so chaotic that there's nowhere to step. The interconnected systems are just as complex as the power lines in my brother's house.

It's likely that only the "electricians" from the three families have the ability to revive the Association's divine realm.

Of course, complaints are complaints.

But in Wu Xian's view, the Association's Divine Realm is not entirely beyond saving.

It depends on whether the cost of saving the business is higher or the cost of starting from scratch is higher.

Back to the small villa in the North Block.

After several days of dedicated research into tattoo ink, he finally produced a batch that met his expectations. He should be able to further refine it before the old man returns.

In addition, with the help of the God of Mechanical Creation's "divine forging and completion" of the Dao Ancestor's laws, his efficiency in comprehending various laws and powers has also greatly improved.

After some exploration and improvement, the current types of pills were successfully upgraded by one or two grades.

Qi Gathering Pill: Grade Two
Spirit-Nourishing Pill: Grade Three
Spirit Gathering Pill: Grade 3
Longevity Elixir: Grade Two
Among them, after obtaining the third grade of the Spirit Feeding Pill, the upper limit for improving the level of the Painting Spirit has been raised to six stars.

Therefore, it is evident that in the future, raising the grade by one level will only increase the upper limit of the Spirit Feeding Pill by half a star.

Regarding the Qi Gathering Pill, its efficacy has improved significantly, and my cultivation speed has advanced further. I estimate that I will soon break through to the sixth level of spiritual power.

The most important thing is the Longevity Pill. Previously, the first-grade Longevity Pill would increase lifespan by about two months, but now that it's second-grade, the effect is directly five months.

Although the cost of materials has increased slightly, it is still very cost-effective overall.

Jingle Bell!
My mentor called instead of video chatting on WeChat, which meant something urgent had come up.

"What happened?" Wu Xian asked seriously as he answered the phone.

"My dear disciple, come quickly!" Xue Lingling said urgently, "Second sister-in-law and the insect realm outpost have encountered trouble and urgently need the help of the Pleiades Star Lord!"
