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

Chapter 487 The Remnant Spirit of the Queen of the Underworld Obtained
At this moment, the power of the Corpse Ancestor was like a juicer, rapidly draining the blood and energy from the deformed Queen of the Underworld.

Amidst the evil god's unwilling roars, he completely drained the evil god's queen, leaving her a withered corpse.

Then, the Corpse Ancestor made a handshake from a distance.

The evil god Minghou, now a dried-up corpse, instantly shattered, and the connection between the evil god's voice and aura was also instantly severed.

However, after the mummified corpse collapsed, a dim and lifeless shadow remained at the scene, like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.

"That's... the cover of the Queen of the Underworld's scroll?" Wu Xian exclaimed in surprise.

"Obviously." The God of Wealth was also secretly surprised and began to examine it closely.

It should be noted that when the scroll-shaped flesh and blood puppet dies, the power of the scroll shell will also perish along with the puppet.

At most, some residual strength can be preserved.

For example, the previous Radiant Sun Guard and Moon Gazing Guard.

At that time, Wu Xian used relevant power to awaken it, and then forcibly extracted the power of Yaoyang and Wangyue.

Even so, it was impossible to keep the Radiant Sun Guardian and the Moon Gazing Guardian in their original spiritual forms.

The fact that the scroll power of Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld, could still maintain the image and state of the scroll's remnant soul was something they had never encountered before.

To everyone's surprise, the God of Wealth beside them seemed to have figured something out.

“I understand,” the God of Wealth pondered. “While the Demon God controls and develops these scroll shells, he is also repairing and reshaping them to some extent.”

Upon hearing this, Wu Xian suddenly realized what was going on.

Simply put, as the scroll puppet develops, the scroll shell will also be repaired.

Although this incidental repair was not perfect, it allowed the Underworld Queen Scroll, which had been defeated by the evil god, to see the light of day again.

The crowd, shocked, clearly noticed this and gathered around to watch the spectacle.

After all, that was the remaining spirit of the scroll from the Black Scroll Queen.

The members of the Demon God Dojo, in particular, were excited and curious, just like when they met their elders.

"It really is Her Highness the Queen of the Underworld!"

They were all too familiar with the aura of the Queen of the Underworld.

Despite their excitement, the members of the Demon God Dojo, despite their excitement, dared not approach directly due to the terrifying, imposing aura emanating from the Corpse Ancestor.

Corpse Ancestor Jiang Chen glanced indifferently at everyone and began to refine the evil god power he had just absorbed. As for the remnant spirit of the Queen of the Underworld, she casually tossed it to Wu Xian.

"Thank you, Ancestor Corpse."

Wu Xian thanked her happily and quickly used his spiritual power to wrap and protect the remnant spirit of the Queen of the Underworld.

Go back and find some suitable materials, or use relevant laws and essences to repair it, and you can directly restore it into a complete black scroll, which will save a lot of trouble.

But then he saw that everyone at the Demon God Dojo was staring at him expectantly.

“Young friend Wu Xian, no, brother Wu Xian,” the leading elder of the Demon God Dojo said shamelessly, “I wonder if you could hand over this remnant spirit to us? Our Demon God Dojo will certainly not treat brother Wu Xian unfairly.”

"I'll have to think about this carefully," Wu Xian said with a sly smile.

Just kidding, how could I possibly give away something I've already got?

Even if this remnant spirit belongs to the Queen of the Underworld of the Demon God Dojo, he obtained it through his own abilities.

"This..." The elder of the Demon God Dojo had a strange expression. "As you know, this is our Queen of the Underworld. Even if you take it, young friend, you may not be able to make the most of it."

"Who said that?" Wu Xian squinted and grinned mischievously.

Others might not be able to repair this remnant of spirit, but he is an exception.

Although the copyright to the Queen of the Underworld is held by the Demon God Dojo, the competition for these inherited copyrights within the Divine Realm has been discussed before. Therefore, once he repairs this Queen of the Underworld, he can openly and legitimately enter the Demon God Realm and compete with other Queen of the Underworld copyright holders for control and ownership of this copyright.

The key is that he's a cheat code player; no matter how hard the guys at the Demon God Gym try, they can't possibly beat him.

“Young man, this is ridiculous,” the elder of the Demon God Dojo said, scratching his head in frustration. “Just name your price, and the Demon God Dojo will take it.”

"No rush~", Wu Xian said unhurriedly, then teased and inquired, "Speaking of which, why did your Queen of the Underworld fall into the hands of the Demon God? Could it be that your Queen of the Underworld has been dead for a long time and her death has been kept a secret?"

"This...we really don't know, we're confused too," the elder of the Demon God Dojo said blankly. "At least a year ago, I went to pay homage to Her Majesty the Queen of the Underworld."

Therefore, the Queen of the Underworld before us is most likely not the one we have.

As for where it came from, our Demon God Dojo will definitely try to find out.

"Isn't it your Venerable One?" Wu Xian pondered, "Then I think I understand what's going on."

Upon hearing this, everyone at the Demon God Dojo was stunned, and even those from other parties cast curious glances their way.

"Ridiculous. Even the Human-Demon God Dojo doesn't understand this, so how do you think you do?"

Zhao Qinghe couldn't help but speak sarcastically, his eyes practically overflowing with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

After all, that was the remnant spirit of the Black Scroll!
With just a little repair, it can become extremely powerful in combat. Even if it is only repaired to the level of a gold scroll, it will be much stronger than an ordinary gold scroll.

It should be noted that the Queen of the Underworld was among the first to be worshipped by the Demon God Dojo. After thousands of years of nurturing in the divine realm, her level and the weight of her laws are on par with their Izanami.

The key point is that this Queen of the Underworld happens to be a deity related to the undead, which is very suitable for their realm of the dead.

If it can be repaired, they can then obtain the highest authority over the Queen of the Underworld's copyright in the Demon God Realm, and even forcibly transfer this inheritance to their Undead God Realm.

Of course, this is just a theoretical operation; obtaining the highest authority over the inheritance copyright is not so easy.

In short, Wu Xian's gains made him extremely envious and jealous.

Not only him, but every scion of the prominent families present was envious.

Even if they don't need it themselves, they can still make a hefty profit by selling it to the Demon God Gym.

Sure enough, Bai Shiqi, at Elder Bai's prompting, secretly transmitted his thoughts to Wu Xian, saying, "Brother Wu, if you're going to make a move, could you consider us? To be honest, we'd like to see if we can use this opportunity to bring the Queen of the Underworld to our Peak Divine Realm."

Bai Shiqi's telepathic transmission carried a hint of mischievous laughter.

“What a coincidence, I had the same thought.” Wu Xian replied with a mischievous smile.

"Ok."

As Shiraishi Qi was taken aback, his expression gradually became strange, and his gaze towards the people of the Demon God Dojo held a hint of inexplicable sympathy.

If they were to obtain the remnant spirit of the Queen of the Underworld, they would at most give it a try, and incidentally annoy the Demon God Dojo. The success rate wouldn't be zero, but it would be pitifully low.

But given how outrageous Wu Xian is, it's quite possible that he might actually uncover the secrets of the Demon God Dojo.

Therefore, in his eyes at this moment, the inheritance of the Queen of the Underworld in the Demon God Dojo was already on the verge of collapse.

"What are your thoughts, Brother Wu Xian?"

The members of the Demon God Dojo were still unaware of the seriousness of the situation and were curious about what Wu Xian's brilliant ideas were.

Wu Xian pondered for a moment and then said, "In the present and future generations, there is indeed only your Queen of the Underworld, but it was a different story a thousand years ago when the creator of the Queen of the Underworld was alive."

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly understood.

"You mean, this Queen of the Underworld might have fallen into the hands of the Demon God a thousand years ago?" The Demon God's Dojo's eyes lit up. "But the problem is, Her Highness the Queen of the Underworld only forged the Black Axis eight hundred years ago, right? By then, the Demon God should have been banished long ago."

“That’s what I can’t understand either,” Wu Xian speculated. “Perhaps the perfection of your side’s divine mark on the Queen of the Underworld will also benefit the Demon God side.”
