Chapter 194: A Day Trip To The Underworld
“It’s not quite like I imagined~!”
Wu Xian pondered as he opened his eyes, carefully feeling the Domain Scroll Painting in his hand.
To be honest, the Domain Scroll Painting from concept to production process, and then to the final completion, was not quite like he expected.
Looking again at that peculiar Silver Scroll, it was also not quite like a normal Scroll Painting.
After all, the Domain Scroll Painting does not have an existence like a “Painted Spirit,” but it is not without a soul（ system） existence.
The special and profound Heaven and Earth Laws power within the Scroll Painting is completely different from a Painted Spirit.
As for the Silver Scroll Three-Star rank and level, Wu Xian did not care much.
On one hand, materials were limited; on the other, it was not yet finished, so having Silver Scroll Three-Star was already very good.
Moreover, a Normal Domain Scroll Painting itself can be improved.
“The study of Extraordinary Scroll Paintings is truly profound and extraordinary.”
Upon careful feeling, the internal spiritual operation method of the Domain Scroll Painting was also completely different from other Scroll Paintings.
Besides that, the Domain Scroll Painting also does not have a Divine Diagram.
From a certain perspective, that peculiar Heaven and Earth power in the Domain Scroll Painting is the “Divine Diagram” of the Domain Scroll Painting.
In Wu Xian’s view, the current orthodox Domain Scroll Painting was already a quite perfected field of study.
In comparison, the “ancient method” Domain Scroll Painting in Master Liu Feng’s manuscript was more like being at a fork in the road of Domain Scroll Painting academic research, producing a certain disagreement with the current Domain Scroll Painting practices.
The two Domain Scroll Painting concepts cannot be said to be better or worse; they each have advantages and disadvantages.
The current Domain Scroll Painting is easier to improve.
While the ancient method Domain Scroll Painting has a higher theoretical upper limit, it is more troublesome to improve.
Glancing at his phone, two days had already passed.
“I wonder how Master Sister’s drawing is going?”
Coming back to his senses, he took out several hundred Spirit Crystals, converted them into Spiritual Energy, and injected them into the【 Underworld】 Scroll Painting.
The Domain Scroll Painting can absorb Spiritual Energy and Otherworldly Energy as energy. Absorbing Spiritual Energy only creates a Scroll Painting Instance with no revenue, while absorbing Otherworldly Energy and Spiritual Substance can convert into Divine Power Factor, Spiritual Power, and other revenue.
In short, the former is an experience Instance, while the latter is a regular Instance.
Subsequently placing the【 Underworld】 in the Otherworld will establish an Outpost, at which time it can absorb Otherworldly Power and store Instance energy.
Besides that, absorbing Otherworldly Energy can also bring level improvement to the Domain Scroll Painting.
With the efforts of Club Members, after collecting enough materials, the Domain Scroll Painting can also improve in rank.
This is the advantage of the current Domain Scroll Painting.
At first glance, it seems better and more advantageous than the ancient method Domain Scroll Painting.
In fact, it follows a resource stacking route; both the production cost and the resources needed for subsequent improvement are astronomical numbers.
In contrast, the ancient method Domain Scroll Painting only has a slightly higher initial cost, and can subsequently “automatically” optimize and transform.
With a slight movement of intent, the Scroll Painting slowly unfolded.
Reaching out to touch the Scroll Painting, his whole person was pulled into the Scroll.
Space twisted, and the imagined “Ghost Gate” appeared vividly before his eyes, majestic and dignified while exuding a sinister aura.
“Now that’s the flavor~!”
In comparison, what kind of low-end stuff was that Death Mountain Town?
Purely random piling of horror elements, without any unified style or artistic conception.
Arriving at the city gate, a majestic voice came from within the grand gate tower: “Underworld, no living persons beyond this point.”
Normally, it should be Ox-Head and Horse-Face guarding the Ghost Gate.
But Wu Xian did not paint Ox-Head and Horse-Face in it, so he did not see their figures. In fact, during the drawing process, he could feel that Character Scroll Painting concepts could not be integrated into the Domain Scroll Painting.
But this does not mean that Ox-Head and Horse-Face and other Underworld gods cannot be seen in the【 Underworld】.
As the Scroll Painting’s level and rank improve, the Underworld gods will appear in the Instance World as NPCs or monsters.
With a slight movement of intent, Black and White Impermanence emerged beside him.
The two Impermanences’ bodies resonated with the entire Instance Space through spiritual fluctuations, just like returning home.
Creak—!
The heavy city gate slowly opened, as if welcoming the return of Second Master Impermanence.
“Holy crap!”
The instant he stepped into the Ghost Gate, Wu Xian clearly felt a sense of separation by Yin and Yang daze.
Looking back, he could still see his “body” standing blankly outside the city gate.
What is called advanced horror feeling—this is what advanced horror feeling is.
“Tsk tsk, so this is the feeling of entering the Underworld after death? So magical.”
Of course, at this moment, Wu Xian felt no fear at all, but was full of curiosity about the Underworld world.
After entering the Ghost Gate, he stepped onto the long and rugged Yellow Springs Road. Looking up, no sun, moon, or stars could be seen; looking down, no ground or dust; the path ahead was dim and confused, surrounded by the wails and shrieks of lone ghosts and wild spirits, with biting cold winds and scattered bitter rain, evoking an inexplicable chill.
Fortunately, with Black and White Impermanence leading
The overall experience is just one word: loneliness!
He then stepped onto his Natal Flying Sword【Laurel Branch】, accelerating forward.
He didn’t know how much time had passed when a magnificent pavilion ahead came into view.
Landing on Wangxiang Terrace, he tried to look back, and Wu Xian’s expression couldn’t help but be somewhat dazed.
Grandfather Wu Mingchang’s image was as if seeing him off, and behind the Old Master, the figures of his parents, wife, and child from his previous life even faintly emerged, with everyone’s figures gradually fading into the distance.
Tears inadvertently blurred their eyes, and thick longing and reluctance surged in their heart.
Even though he clearly knew it was just an Instance experience and he hadn’t truly died, he still couldn’t suppress the “life and death separation” emotion in his heart.
Old Master Wu Mingchang was still okay, but the key was his parents and wife and child from his previous life, which was no different from a nuclear strike to him.
For him who transmigrated through reincarnation, wasn’t reuniting with relatives from his previous life also a kind of separation between life and death?
The tears at this moment are completely genuine and heartfelt.
In a daze, he came back to his senses, wiped away his tears, and continued flying on his sword.
Evil Ghosts overrun the Evil Dog Ridge, while on Golden Rooster Mountain, flocks of highly aggressive golden roosters roam about.
Further ahead, there was a stretch of Void and confusion.
“This feeling is indeed really shitty, huh?” Wu Xian shook his head inwardly.
The current feeling is just like in the previous life watching TV dramas or novels, when it’s getting exciting, suddenly it says “to be continued”.
No, no, hurry up and work hard to make money, collect materials, and perfect the 【Underworld】 as soon as possible.
With a slight movement of thought, the space twisted, and his figure dissipated in the Instance World.
Wu Xian, returning to the Mortal Realm, felt as if a lifetime had passed, as though he had truly died once.
“Speaking of which, the grand Underworld should produce decent Instance materials, right?”
Right now【Underworld】 has not yet settled Otherworldly Power, establish outpost, unable to open true Instance.
And this is also the direction and goal of the Underworld Club’s future development.
Everything is developing in a good direction.
He got up and went out, traveling by sword. Nowadays, the Underworld Club already looked like a proper club, with all kinds of facilities fully equipped. Club Members and staff came and went between them, very lively.
“Where is Master Sister? Hasn’t she come out yet?” He asked Zhou Qi and others along the way.
“Domain Scroll Painting, naturally, isn’t that easy,” Zhou Qi said noncommittally: “Take it step by step slowly, no rush, our Club’s Development is already fast enough.”
Wu Xian curled his lips and smiled, enthusiastically pulling out the 【Underworld】 Domain Scroll Painting, “It’s idle time anyway, by the way, does anyone want to go in and experience it? It’s very interesting, guaranteed to give you an unforgettable experience for life.”
