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

Chapter 472 The Essence of Flesh and Blood, The Association's Extraordinary Department
At this moment, Zhao Qinghe couldn't care less about anything else, "Chop, chop quickly!"

"Then I'll chop it up, okay?" Wu Xian hesitated before confirming again.

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up."

With a light laugh, Wu Xian released his natal God of Wealth, and with the use of thunder magic, thunderclouds surged in the sky.

Boom boom boom...

A bolt of lightning struck down, hitting the ugly woman from the underworld squarely.

The divine thunder, imbued with the might of heaven, instantly annihilated the corpse energy.

However, even the ugly woman from the underworld couldn't withstand the power of the thunder magic; her ghostly, painted spirit body was broken and dim.

The good news is that he's still alive; the bad news is that he's on his last breath and won't recover anytime soon.

"That was close," Zhao Qinghe wiped away his cold sweat. "Thank goodness it didn't break. At least there's still hope."

For him, the fact that the ugly woman in the underworld could still be saved was more important than anything else.

He didn't want to break it a third time.

"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Qinghe," Liu Chao hurriedly stepped forward, "I will immediately arrange for your Ugly Girl from the Yellow Springs to go to the Magic Spring to heal her wounds."

"Thank you for your trouble," Zhao Qinghe said helplessly, "but that evil god's servant..."

"Don't worry~ I'm here for you." Wu Xian grinned, looking completely harmless.

"..."

Zhao Qinghe could only stand there silently, unable to express his bitterness.

In the end, the credit and the limelight still went to Wu Xian.

Suffocated!
With Zhao Qinghe gone, the situation on the scene became unpredictable once again.

The evil god's servants, with their malevolent corpse energy, instilled fear and trepidation in the powerful figures at the peak of their cultivation, preventing them from approaching.

"As expected, we still have to rely on Brother Wu." Bai Shiqi sighed and solemnly requested, "Please lend us a hand, Brother Wu."

You're welcome!

Wu Xian waved his hand and smiled, then controlled his destined God of Wealth to charge into the battlefield.

The current God of Wealth has long since transformed into a deity, and even without the blessing of the God of Wealth's will, it is still not something that ordinary scrolls can contend with.

The black tiger beneath him roared, its howl transforming into an invisible force, seemingly battling against the eerie aura on the field.

The God of Wealth pointed his steel whip to the sky, and thunderclouds instantly filled the sky above the battlefield, as if some powerful force was gathering.

The people at Dengfeng Martial Arts Academy weren't stupid either; the divine lightning bolt that struck Zhao Qinghe earlier was clearly held back.

The divine thunder before us is the real divine thunder.

"Such a powerful aura of lightning!" Liu Chao exclaimed, unable to hide his shock. "It's more powerful than any lightning I've ever seen before."

“You’ll get used to it,” Bai Shiqi said calmly, seemingly already accustomed to Wu Xian’s extraordinary abilities. “This scroll has always been Brother Wu’s absolute mainstay.”

Liu Chao clicked his tongue and nodded, then suddenly realized something. He quickly put on his usual airs again and silently glared at Bai Shiqi.

At the same time, the evil god's servants on the field also sensed something was wrong, and the divine lightning brewing above their heads instilled in them a deep-seated fear.

"Damn it, where did you come from, kid?"

The evil god's servant's face turned ashen. He instinctively tried to escape the range of the tribulation clouds, but was surrounded and blocked by the peak experts.

As the power within the tribulation clouds grew stronger, he felt inexplicably panicked, and the fleshy tentacles swaying around his body began to tremble inexplicably.

"Didn't your evil god introduce me to you?" Wu Xian stood on a laurel branch, looking down at him. "His two avatars came before, but I chased them away."

After saying that, he raised his hand and waved.

The lightning that had been brewing in the sky then crashed down.

The divine lightning, imbued with supreme heavenly might, possessed an innate locking property, leaving the evil god's servant nowhere to escape.

boom!
The moment the tribulation lightning struck, the evil god's servants seemed to bristle, their flesh and tendrils twitching and contracting, emitting painful howls.

The eerie death energy and corpse energy within his body quickly dissipated and vanished.

The people from the Peak Martial Arts Academy present were so shocked by the power of the tribulation lightning that they gasped and their scalps tingled.

The key point is that the divine lightning wasn't just a simple strike, but a continuous electric shock that relentlessly bombarded the power of the evil god's servants.

Boom boom boom...

Under the divine thunder, the enormous flesh and blood body of the evil god's servant continuously emitted blue smoke, and its size seemed to shrink, constantly contracting and charring.

“Interesting.” Wu Xian’s eyes flickered.

The evil god's servant, bathed in lightning, seemed to have taken root beneath its feet, sprouting countless fleshy roots that anchored themselves in the earth, constantly drawing power from it.

But that's not the point. The point is that the power within the flesh and blood earth can be directly transformed into that eerie corpse energy.

Then, after releasing Xiao Dizi to carefully sense it, Wu Xian vaguely understood something.

The eerie scroll before us shares the same origin as the power of the flesh and blood demon god.

In other words, the evil scroll painter in front of us was originally a servant of the flesh and blood demon god, rather than another evil god servant assimilated by the flesh and blood demon god.

The flesh and blood power of that flesh and blood demon god is essentially the same thing as the evil scroll in front of us.

"So, it was originally just a huge lump of zombie flesh?"

No wonder it's so resilient and eerie.

It's important to know that many powerful zombies are impervious to water and fire, and invulnerable to swords and spears.

Therefore, the evil flesh and blood of the Flesh and Blood Demon God is essentially the flesh and blood of a top-tier zombie.

It's just that because of the addition of evil power, it looks different from the flesh and blood of a zombie, and it has even lost its original zombie form.

Or could it be understood as a top-tier zombie dominated by "cancer cells"?

However, for some reason, the power of that flesh and blood demon god did not seem to contain any trace of "corpse energy".

Or rather, even the power that once came from zombies has been completely assimilated by evil forces.
Regardless, this was definitely a major discovery for Wu Xian.

"God of Wealth, God of Wealth?" Wu Xian excitedly called out to the will of the God of Wealth resting in his sea of ​​consciousness. "If I'm not mistaken, that Flesh and Blood Demon God was probably a powerful zombie-like evil creature before."

"Zombie?" The God of Wealth's sleepy voice instantly snapped to attention. "So that's it. No wonder the aura of that flesh and blood demon god always felt so familiar."

However, under the influence of the evil power, the opponent is clearly no longer a zombie in the ordinary sense.

It's more like a zombie force that has gone out of control and become chaotic.

“But it should still retain some characteristics and power of a zombie,” Wu Xian analyzed. “Perhaps we can use the same methods we use against zombies to deal with that evil god?”

“It’s unlikely,” the God of Wealth shook his head. “This level of zombie can no longer be viewed as a zombie, let alone one that has been infused with strange and evil power.”

"Does this mean we still have to rely on food?" Wu Xian sighed helplessly.

"At present, yes," the God of Wealth said, "but at some critical moments, using some of the strategies for dealing with zombies might play a key role."

Additionally, you might be able to use his flesh and blood to create some powerful zombies.

Upon hearing this, Wu Xian's eyes lit up: "That's right!" You have to know, this is material at the level of a demon god, which can basically be regarded as material at the level of a "true god".

Although the flesh and blood of the flesh and blood demon god is so large that it seems somewhat worthless, it is still the flesh and blood of an evil demon god.

The only problem is that the flesh and blood are mixed with evil power, which is not easy to deal with.

"Haha, what a coincidence!"

The flesh and blood canning process used by Sister Jump is perfect for removing the evil forces from flesh and blood.

Thinking about this, Wu Xian was even a little impatient.

And since these are all god-level materials, we definitely need to get the best quality possible!
"In your opinion, God of Wealth, which top-tier zombie would be most suitable?" Wu Xian couldn't help but discuss with the God of Wealth. "Nüba? Ying Gou? Jiang Chen? Or Hou Qing?"

“Jiang Chen,” the God of Wealth analyzed, “is the progenitor of zombies, and his blood-sucking ability is extremely strong, making him the perfect candidate to deal with this flesh and blood power.”

Ying Gou and Nü Ba are also worth considering, but Hou Qing is out of the question; her power is difficult to control, and she isn't a pure zombie herself.

Wu Xian understood.

The saying goes, "Only children make choices; adults want it all."

After all, the materials are readily available, so there's no need to worry about them at all.

They could even create a large number of copies and rubbings to distribute to the club's members, forming a massive super zombie army.

At this moment, the evil god's servant was barely clinging to life, and the tribulation clouds in the sky had already dissipated.

The top experts pressed their advantage, launching a powerful encirclement and defeating them in one fell swoop.

Although it is impossible to completely kill this evil god's servant, it is possible to seal and confine him here using various methods.

For safety's sake, when the powerful cultivators at the peak were sealing the seal, Wu Xian also added the Bifang Divine Fire and the power of plague to further suppress the evil god's servant within the seal, subjecting him to endless suffering.

Within the seal, the power of the evil god's servants continuously spawned new flesh and blood, which was constantly burned and eroded by the Bifang divine fire and the power of plague.

The powerful figures standing nearby couldn't help but feel secretly alarmed.

"Brother Wu, right?" The leading elder was quite young, not even fifty years old. "I've heard Xiao Qi mention you before, and seeing you today, you truly are a dragon among men."

"You flatter me, senior," Wu Xian said with a modest smile.

According to Bai Shiqi's introduction, this elder is also surnamed Bai. He is an elite member of a collateral branch of the Bai clan and was once one of the most prominent figures among his peers in the dojo. He entered the elder council at a young age, which shows his strength.

"Before I came here, the patriarch gave me instructions to try my best to win over this young man," Elder Bai said, being straightforward and without any intention of beating around the bush. "How about it, young friend? Why don't you consider it? Just name your conditions, and I'll do my best to help you resolve them."

Wu Xian chuckled silently and did not respond.

Seeing this, Bai Shiqi quickly said, "Let's leave it at that. I only just found out that Brother Wu is actually a member of the association."

"A member of the association?" Elder Bai was stunned. "Wasn't he from a humble background? Was the information wrong?"

“Well, we can’t blame the intelligence department,” Shiraishi Qi explained. “How should I put it? Brother Wu only recently succeeded in recognizing his relatives. Brother Wu’s grandmother is a member of the association and has now come here.”

I even suspect that this wave of mobilization and preparedness by the association is partly due to this reason.

"I was wondering why the association was suddenly making such a big fuss," Elder Bai said with a start. "I wonder which senior member of the association's leadership it was?"

"Well... I really don't know much about this." Bai Shiqi scratched his head awkwardly.

Wu Xian shrugged and said, "Grandma seems quite mysterious, I don't know much about her either."

"Mysterious?" Elder Bai mused. "An elder from the Qi Clan?"

After all, which of these top powers doesn't have a hidden figure in their ranks?
Especially in places like associations that gather talents from all over the world, there are already a large number of people, and many of them are older, secretive, or hidden figures.

Putting everything else aside, the very name "Qibu" exudes an air of mystery.

"The Qibu?" Wu Xian asked, puzzled.

Bai Shiqi and Liu Chao, standing to the side, also looked puzzled. "The association has such a department? I've never heard of it. What does it do?"

“A special, confidential department,” Elder Bai explained, “gathers many strange and unusual talents. They don’t usually participate in the association’s affairs; they are dedicated to solving difficult problems.”

They are involved in many high-level interdimensional raids.

It's normal that you can't get in touch with them right now.

Upon hearing this, Bai Shiqi and Liu Chao couldn't help but marvel.

Wu Xian was also very curious about the association's "Strange Department". Judging from the name, it seemed to be a department for all kinds of eccentric talents. The special talents that his grandmother had mentioned before should be people from the Strange Department.

Generally speaking, the special talents in these special departments may not be top-notch in terms of ability, but they are characterized by their "uniqueness".

"What a pity, in the end he's just a member of the association," Elder Bai sighed regretfully. "The association's family is just lucky!"

After exchanging pleasantries with Elder Bai, Wu Xian took his leave.

Shiraishi Qi naturally wanted to stay and fight alongside his dojo, and he also planned to equip his team with the Giant Bug and Big Mouth.

Wu Xian, on his side, slayed flesh and blood monsters along the way and headed towards the Mechanical Dojo's position.

During this period, reinforcements from various guilds and factions arrived one after another around Yaoyang City.

The association's reinforcements were the most impressive, truly surprising all the teams.

Not only did headquarters send a large number of reinforcements, but the team leading them was also quite impressive.

Even more outrageous is that reinforcements are being sent to the association's branches around the world one after another.

Although the association has always taken it upon itself to protect the people and the world, it has always attached great importance to disasters.

However, the scale and scope of this operation clearly exceeded the allowed limits.

Wu Xian wasn't stupid. The impressive lineup at the association headquarters was clearly there for his grandmother, or rather, to ensure her safety.

After all, behind this disaster lies a demon god.

If anything were to happen to the old lady, the Association's Divine Realm could simply declare bankruptcy.

Of course, the safest approach would be to bring the old lady back to headquarters and have her stay there to oversee things.

The problem is that the old lady just ran away here with that bastard from back then, so they definitely can't go to pick her up. They have to come in person to ensure the old lady's safety.

There's no way around it, raising a daughter is just so troublesome.

Even though their daughter is already this age, she still causes them a lot of worry.

Of course, this great-aunt has never given the association a moment's peace.

They caused their elders a lot of trouble back then, and now they're causing their younger generations a lot of trouble.

At the Peak Dojo's base, seeing reinforcements arriving one after another, as well as the association's super-powerful lineup, Elder Bai was somewhat bewildered. "What's going on? Has the association mobilized its entire force?"

"Could it be that they're all here because of Brother Wu's grandmother?" Bai Shiqi couldn't hide his shock. "Hiss~ Just what is that old lady's status in the association?"

"A hidden Supreme Elder?" Elder Bai clicked his tongue in surprise. "By the way, do you know what that old lady's name is?"

"It seems his surname is Feng."

"Surname Feng?" Elder Bai was startled. "Then it's even more extraordinary."
