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

Chapter 486 Metamorphosis and Awakening

The shockwave generated by the lightning strike spread like a nuclear explosion.

People from all sides at the scene were thrown far away by the shockwave.

Even the mighty Evil Goddess Minghou was forced back by the power of the tribulation lightning, her eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief.

Good heavens, it's one thing to point a gun at your own scroll, but to do it so ruthlessly.

It would be terrible if he ruined the physical form he had been dreaming of.

Then, an even stranger scene unfolded on the field.

The evil god, the Queen of the Underworld, was cursing and swearing, her body radiating deathly and bloody aura, trying to help the Corpse Ancestor share the pressure and cope with the overwhelming heavenly might.

"Kid, go easy on me," the Evil Goddess of the Underworld said with concern. "If you damage my precious body, I'll make you wish you were dead!"

Unfortunately, his attempt to help felt like a case of offering a warm welcome only to be met with a cold shoulder.

The Corpse Ancestor didn't appreciate the help at all, or rather, he disdained the evil god's assistance.

The crowds that had been pushed back were completely bewildered by this scene.

"Wait, what... what's going on?"

"The evil god has started helping the Corpse Ancestor instead?"

"I don't understand it, I don't understand it at all!"

"Also, Wu Xian's Heavenly Thunder was a bit too outrageous. Was it really necessary to go to such lengths just to control the Corpse Ancestor's power?"

"Why does it feel like it's not being controlled, but rather aimed at destroying that scroll?"

"Could it be that the power of that zombie scroll has become uncontrollable?"

"No, no, as the original scroll artist, if you want to destroy your own scroll, you only need to do it at the level of the divine painting. There's no need to go through all this trouble."

"What if the power of the divine map goes out of control, like the evil scroll?"

Upon hearing this, people from all sides couldn't help but become tense.

Jump Sister and the Mechanical Gym were relatively calm, after all, they knew about the existence of the God of Wealth's will.

At least for now, Wu Xian and the God of Wealth seem quite calm, so Wu Xian must have his reasons for doing so.

It's just that outsiders don't understand it.

"So here's the question: which side should we help now?" someone asked the crucial question.

People from all sides were left bewildered.

Yes, if we were to go up and help, how should we do it?
It feels a bit off no matter which side I help.

"Let's just not help anyone and wait and see."

……

Boom boom boom...

The power of the Heavenly Tribulation intensified, seemingly intent on erasing the Corpse Ancestor from this world.

Amidst the blinding flashes of lightning, the Corpse Ancestor's body continuously shattered and repaired itself, undergoing a complete overhaul from the inside out.

The more the evil god Hades looked at it, the more heartbroken he felt, after all, it was the physical prototype he had longed for!

As long as he can capture this nascent physical form, he is confident that he can integrate all the power and reach the true god level.

"Damn it, stop hitting it! If you keep hitting it, it'll really break!"

At this moment, the evil god was even more anxious and heartbroken than Wu Xian.

"Let's talk this out. Don't go crazy like this! That's your own hand-drawn scroll!"

No matter how frantically the evil god went, Wu Xian and the God of Wealth remained unmoved, quietly sensing the changes in the Corpse Ancestor.

To others, the aura and power of the Corpse Ancestor were constantly weakening.

But only Wu Xian and the God of Wealth understood that the Corpse Ancestor was going through a crucial stage of being reborn from the brink of death. His current decline and weakness were for the purpose of blooming an even more beautiful flower after the Heavenly Tribulation.

However, the Corpse Ancestor's current condition looks like he might collapse at any moment, which is quite worrying.

Putting everything else aside, the evil god is quite worrying.

He finally found a painting that perfectly met his requirements, but he could only watch helplessly as the artist destroyed it with his own hands.

"A madman, this kid is a complete madman!" The evil god grew angrier the more he thought about it, and even began to suspect that Wu Xian was mentally ill.

"Fine, so be it. As long as we can capture this kid alive, that's all that matters."

Seeing that the Corpse Ancestor was powerless to reverse the situation, the Evil God simply stopped caring and decided to capture Wu Xian alive and make him create another scroll.

At the same time, the imposing aura in the sky seemed to be dissipating.

The power and "efficiency" of the heavenly thunder were also gradually decreasing.

The ravaged body of the Corpse Ancestor still stood proudly between heaven and earth.

"Ow—!"

The Corpse Ancestor roared to the sky, as if venting his anger or celebrating his victory.

The God of Wealth, having witnessed everything, breathed a sigh of relief: "It's done."

Sure enough, as the heavenly tribulation gradually dissipated, the Corpse Ancestor's already broken body, like a trapped beast freed from its cage, radiated with vitality.

The power within his body surged forth as if a dam had been breached.

The corpse beetles in the world of flesh and blood are constantly gathering towards the Corpse Ancestor, becoming part of the Corpse Ancestor's power.

"There seem to be signs that consciousness is awakening and taking shape!"

Wu Xian also quickly sensed the transformation of the consciousness within the Corpse Ancestor Divine Diagram.

"?!"

Sensing the sudden rebound of the Corpse Ancestor, the Evil God was first startled, then immediately understood.

"Damn it, so it was all to help her break down and rebuild, to undergo a further transformation?"

The evil god's expression shifted between light and dark as he couldn't help but recall his own past. Perhaps he too could undergo a transformation in this way?

Instead of growing wildly and becoming the mess it is today?
The crowd present was stunned and speechless by the scene.

Although they didn't know exactly what had happened, they could clearly sense that the Corpse Ancestor's power was rapidly recovering and becoming even stronger than before.

woohoo hoo...

Overwhelming malevolent energy and corpse energy raged like a tsunami across the world of flesh and blood.

Wherever the aura passed, large swaths of flesh and blood were instantly drained of their life force, turning into hard, dried flesh.

In a short while, the aura of the Corpse Ancestor completely suppressed the power of the Evil Goddess of the Underworld.

"Damn it, how could this happen? How dare she—!"

At this moment, jealousy transformed the evil god beyond recognition.

Isn't this transformation of the Corpse Ancestor exactly the wonderful outcome I envisioned back then?
Unfortunately, he failed back then.

Therefore, even though he knew that his physical puppet body was no match for the Corpse Ancestor, the Evil God still did not retreat.

The saying goes, "If you can't have it, you'll destroy it."

At this moment, the evil god's mind had already gone mad. Even if it meant sacrificing this fleshly puppet, he was determined to tear this "beautiful" scene before him to shreds.

Amidst gasps of alarm from all sides, the Evil Goddess of the Underworld hysterically charged toward the Corpse Ancestor who was undergoing transformation, as if she wanted to perish together with him.

"Die to me——!"

The flesh and blood power within the body of the evil god Hades was released in a strange way, as if some kind of restriction and shackles had been broken.

As her power surged, the body of the Evil Goddess of the Underworld began to mutate. Countless uncontrolled forces of flesh and blood burst forth from her body, growing wildly and transforming into a form covered by tumors.

Upon seeing this, Wu Xian and the God of Wealth instinctively wanted to step forward and stop them.

After all, the Corpse Ancestor is at a critical stage.

At that moment, a cold and indifferent female voice suddenly echoed in Wu Xian's mind, "I have awakened!"

Wu Xian and the God of Wealth exchanged a glance, both surprised and delighted.

Immediately afterwards, the Corpse Ancestor, standing in the center of the crimson wave, suddenly opened his eyes, the cold and ferocious light in them seeming to devour everything.

"court death!"

Corpse Ancestor Jiang Chen sneered contemptuously, raised his fair hand, and boundless evil energy surged and gathered, imprisoning the mutated evil goddess Ming Hou in mid-air.
