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

Chapter 27 Black and White Impermanence
While finalizing the design, refine the scroll concept in your mind to ensure that it corresponds to the artwork.

Next comes the process of mixing the pigments.

The materials collected along the way were mostly bizarre, containing an abundance of spiritual substances: death, ghosts, yin energy, skeletons, flesh and blood, and a series of other complex spiritual substances.

In addition, the colors required by these two individuals are relatively simple, so they are easy to mix.

The only challenge lies in how to incorporate more spiritual substances into the paint.

"what happened?"

During the extraction of spiritual substances, I could clearly feel wisps of energy flowing into my body, but I couldn't feel the presence of these wisps of energy at all.

Keep experimenting and you'll discover that each material contains a similar energy.

However, materials produced in normal dungeons do not contain this special energy.

It's like a unique component found only in dimensional mirage monsters.

"The monsters that invaded through the dimensional mirage are indeed quite different."

However, it is still unclear what these "special ingredients" are and what their function is.
Before they knew it, the paint had been successfully mixed.

Take out a piece of drawing paper, start drawing directly, and the ideas and concepts in your mind will be built up simultaneously.

Gradually, two ghost messengers, one in black and one in white, appeared on the paper. The white ghost messenger was tall and thin, wearing a white robe, holding a soul-summoning banner, with a smile on his face, sticking out a long tongue, and wearing a tall white official hat on his head with the four characters "Seeing him brings wealth".

The black ghost messenger is stout and wears a black robe. He holds a soul-catching chain, has a fierce black face, and wears a black official hat with the four characters "Peace Under Heaven" on it.

The two ghost messengers held two plaques for rewarding good and punishing evil, their sinister and terrifying appearance exuding an inexplicable majesty.

These are the two underworld officials, Black and White Impermanence, who are respectfully called the Two Impermanence Lords by the common people, also known as the Seventh Lord and the Eighth Lord.

The moment the draft was completed, the laws of heaven and earth locked in, and yin energy gathered to frame it into a scroll.

The figures of the two ghost messengers were also deeply imprinted in my mind. Copyright reserved.

The special components from the previous materials were also incorporated into the scroll imprints of the two ghost messengers, making their imprints clearer and more vivid.

"What exactly is that energy?"

Amidst his confusion, the freshly drawn scroll slowly fell into Wu Xian's hands.

Black and White Impermanence

Version: Original (with gold embroidered border)

Grade: Bronze Axis

Painting Spirit: ★
Spirituality: 39
Innate Trait: Summoning and capturing souls, rewarding good and punishing evil.

"Only one star for a copper axis?" Wu Xian wondered to himself.

He had thought that the materials produced by the Dimensional Mirage would allow him to create higher-quality scrolls, but it seems he was overthinking it.

The special energy component in the material seems to only affect the scroll imprint in the sea of ​​consciousness, and no effect can be seen for the time being.

Meanwhile, the monsters roaming outside the courtyard seemed to sense something and fled in panic.

When Wu Xian walked out of the room, the old men were wondering about it.

"Huh? Why did all those monsters run away?"

"It seems they were scared away by the idle kids."

"Old Wu is so lucky to have such a promising grandson."

"Young man, you've come at the perfect time," Grandpa Wang greeted him. "I've just taken in some neighbors from the neighborhood. At this rate, the courtyard will probably be too crowded."

"It doesn't matter."

Wu Xian smiled calmly and immediately began painting on the spot.

He drew ten simple copies of "The Rooster King and the Divine Tiger" on practice drawing paper and distributed them to the old men so they could put them on their doors.

After settling the old men in, it's time to take the newly minted Black and White Impermanence out for some training.

No sooner had I stepped out than I saw a group of familiar figures charging towards me. Leading the charge was a tiger spirit painting, its roars tearing apart several monsters that blocked its path.

Upon recognizing Zhao He and Huang Mao's gang, Wu Xian was both surprised and delighted.

"Old Zhao, weren't you outside? How did you get in?" Zhao He and the others felt much more at ease when they saw Wu Xian, and quickly explained, "According to what the soldiers outside said, we can only enter the shantytown now, not leave."

"Only in, no out?" Wu Xian secretly rejoiced.

Although he can't leave for the time being, his grandfather Wu Mingchang can come back.

"What's the situation outside?" Wu Xian asked.

"It was chaotic for a short while at the beginning, but it has stabilized now..." Zhao He briefly described the situation outside.

Upon hearing what Zhao He said, the group of blond-haired men next to him couldn't help but curse the government's decisions regarding the shantytowns and the various forms of discrimination.

Compared to the chaos in the shantytowns, the outer urban areas were well-defended and remarkably peaceful.

The army and various spirit masters took control of the situation immediately, with only the northern district remaining relatively chaotic.

In contrast, the shantytown was immediately locked down and isolated, and they only sent three young men to make a show of it.

Only then did Wu Xian understand the meaning behind Zhang Mazi's words.

This guy doesn't treat the people in the shantytowns like human beings at all!
"Alright, I have the Rooster King and Divine Tiger Diagram here to ward off evil. You all stay here and guard this place. I'll go outside and take a look."

With Zhao He and the others staying behind, Wu Xian felt much more at ease, since he wasn't sure what the upper limit of the [Chicken King and Divine Tiger] Evil-Repelling Diagram was.

"Young boss, be careful too!" Zhao He said with concern as he saw him off. "Staying alive is the most important thing."

Wu Xian smiled knowingly, feeling very confident.

After moving a distance away, they decisively released the two ghost messengers, Black and White Impermanence.

Several strange creatures that had been wandering nearby scattered and fled like startled birds.

But then, Bai Wuchang raised the soul-summoning banner in his hand, and a chilling wind blew.

Several low-level monsters seemed to be dragged by some force, slowing down uncontrollably and being pulled toward Wu Xian.

Whoosh!Whoosh!
The Soul-Binding Chains in Black Impermanence's hand shot out, stringing several monsters together like candied hawthorns.

The moment the soul-binding chains touched them, the monsters seemed to "go offline," falling into a dazed and helpless state, completely at the mercy of others.

However, judging from the eerie light that kept flashing on the chains, the monsters were clearly putting up some kind of resistance, but their resistance was in vain.

In a short while, the monsters skewered like candied hawthorns gradually lost their eerie aura and became empty, "dead" shells.

"Tsk tsk, professional matters should indeed be handled by professionals."

Although the God of Wealth is powerful, a single strike of his thunder magic can often obliterate a monster, leaving only ashes behind.

However, when Black and White Impermanence make their move, they can achieve a perfect kill without any loss, preserving the monster's value 100%.

Ever since.

While others were still hiding and fighting against the dimensional mirage monsters.

Wu Xian has started chasing after monsters all over the world.

"Over there~ Over there~!"

Two shadowy figures, one black and one white, flew ahead, with Wu Xian riding the Chicken King close behind.

To be fair, the "experience points" from the dimensional mirage monsters are indeed plentiful. Before we knew it, Black and White Impermanence had already leveled up to one and a half stars and were steadily moving towards two stars.

Along the way, the rescued people were filled with gratitude, but they were inevitably a little afraid when faced with the terrifying images of the Black and White Impermanence.

"A waste treatment plant?"

Wu Xian looked thoughtfully at the terrified garbage disposal plant employees in front of him.

It's important to understand that the employees of the waste treatment plant are essentially the "Brahmins" of the shantytown. Those who can get into the plant are mostly spiritual practitioners. If even they were this frightened, you can imagine how dire the situation is at the waste treatment plant.

He had noticed before that the monsters all fled in the same direction after seeing the Black and White Impermanence, and as he chased them, he was getting closer and closer to the garbage disposal plant.

Clearly, there's a problem at the waste treatment plant.

Coupled with the official attitude towards shantytowns, it's easy for him to conjure up some conspiracy theories.
