487: Obtaining the remnant spirit of the Queen of the Underworld

Chapter 487: Obtaining the Queen of the Underworld's Remnant Spirit

At this moment, the power of the Corpse Ancestor was like a juicer, rapidly draining the vitality and blood Qi from the body of the deformed Queen of the Underworld.

And amid the unwilling roars of the Evil God, he completely sucked the Evil God Hades dry, turning her into a shriveled corpse.

Afterward, the Corpse Ancestor clenched his hand in the air.

The Evil God Hades, who had turned into a dried corpse, instantly shattered, and the Evil God's voice and aura were immediately disconnected.

However, after the dried corpse collapsed, a dim, lightless phantom remained, flickering like a candle in the wind, liable to dissipate at any moment.

"Is that... the scroll shell of the Queen of the Underworld?" Wu Xian was greatly shocked.

"Apparently so." The God of Wealth was also secretly astonished and began to examine it closely.

You must understand that after a scroll flesh-and-blood Puppet dies, the power of its scroll shell dissipates along with the Puppet.

At most, only some residual power might remain.

Take the previous Yaoyang Divine Guard and Wangyue Divine Guard, for example.

At that time, Wu Xian used related powers to awaken them, and then forcibly extracted the powers of Yaoyang and Wangyue.

Even so, he could not make the Yaoyang Divine Guard and the Wangyue Divine Guard maintain their original spiritual forms.

Yet the scroll power of the Queen of the Underworld, Persephone, before them could still maintain the image and state of a remnant scroll soul. This was the first time they had encountered such a situation.

Amidst their surprise, the God of Wealth nearby seemed to have figured something out.

"I understand," the God of Wealth mused. "While the Evil God was controlling and developing these scroll shells, he was also, to some extent, repairing and reshaping them."

Hearing this, Wu Xian suddenly realized the truth.

To put it simply, as the scroll Puppet developed, the scroll shell was also repaired along with it.

Although this incidental repair was not perfect, it allowed the Queen of the Underworld's scroll, which had previously been defeated by the Evil God, to see the light of day again.

While shocked, people from all sides clearly noticed this point, marveling and gathering around to watch the excitement.

After all, that was the remnant scroll spirit body of the black scroll Queen of the Underworld.

Especially the people from the Demon God Dojo, they were all extremely excited, as if they had met their own elder, their excitement mixed with intense curiosity.

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

They were extremely familiar with the aura of the Queen of the Underworld.

Due to the terrifying, non-angry but imposing pressure emanating from the Corpse Ancestor, the Demon God Dojo members were excited but dared not step forward directly.

Corpse Ancestor Jiang Chen glanced indifferently at everyone and began refining the Evil God power he had just absorbed. As for the Queen of the Underworld's remnant spirit body, he casually tossed it toward Wu Xian.

"Thank you, Corpse Ancestor."

Wu Xian thanked him happily and quickly wrapped and protected the Queen of the Underworld's remnant spirit with spiritual power.

If he found suitable materials later, or used the related source essence of law to repair it, he could directly restore it into a complete black scroll, which would save him a lot of trouble.

He noticed that the people from the Demon God Dojo were all looking at him eagerly.

"Little friend Wu Xian, no, Brother Wu Xian," the leading Elder of the Devil God Dojo said shamelessly, "I wonder if you could hand this remnant spirit over to us? Our Demon God Dojo will certainly not treat Brother Wu Xian unfairly."

"I'll have to think about that carefully." Wu Xian narrowed his eyes, smiling inwardly.

Are you kidding? How could he give away something good he had already obtained?

Even if this remnant spirit belonged to Her Highness, the Queen of the Underworld, of the Demon God Dojo, he had obtained it through his own ability.

"This..." The Elder of the Devil God Dojo looked strange. "You also know that this is our Her Highness, the Queen of the Underworld. Even if you take it, little friend, you might not be able to use its full potential."

"Who says?" Wu Xian narrowed his eyes and smiled mischievously.

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

Although the copyright for the Queen of the Underworld was held by the Demon God Dojo, the method of competition for these Legacy copyrights within the Divine Domain had been mentioned before.

Therefore, as long as he repaired this Queen of the Underworld, he could openly penetrate the Demon God Divine Domain and compete with other Queen of the Underworld copyright holders for the stewardship and ownership of this copyright.

Crucially, he was a cheat-type player; no matter how hard the Demon God Dojo people tried, they couldn't compete with him.

"Little brother, aren't you just fooling around?" The Elder of the Devil God Dojo scratched his ears and cheeks, anxious to death. "Just name your price. Our Demon God Dojo will accept it."

"No rush~," Wu Xian said unhurriedly, changing the subject to inquire teasingly, "Speaking of which, why did your Queen of the Underworld fall into the hands of the Evil God? Could it be that your Queen of the Underworld was lost long ago, and you've been secretly keeping it under wraps?"

"This... we really don't know, we're confused ourselves," the Elder of the Devil God Dojo said blankly. "At least a year ago, I still went to pay respects to Her Highness, the Queen of the Underworld.

Therefore, the Her Highness, the Queen of the Underworld, before us is likely not the one we worship.

As for where she came from, our Demon God Dojo must find a way to figure it out."

"She's not yours?" Wu Xian pondered. "Then I probably understand what happened."

Hearing this, the Demon God Dojo members were stunned, and even the other factions cast curious glances.

"Ridiculous. The Demon God Dojo people themselves don't understand, yet you do?"

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

After all, that was the remnant spirit of a black scroll!

With just a little repair, it could form extremely strong combat power. Even if it was only restored to the gold scroll level, it would still be much stronger than an ordinary gold scroll.

You should know that the Queen of the Underworld was one of the first Legacies enshrined by the Demon God Dojo. After a thousand years of Divine Domain nourishment, her level and Law weight were on the same level as their Izanami.

Crucially, this Queen of the Underworld was also a deity related to the Undead System, which was very suitable for their Undead Divine Domain.

If they could repair her, they might later seize the highest authority over the Queen of the Underworld's copyright in the Demon God Divine Domain, and potentially even forcibly transfer this Legacy to their Undead Divine Domain.

Of course, this was only theoretical; seizing the highest authority over a Legacy copyright was not that easy.

In short, Wu Xian's gains this time truly drove him mad with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

It wasn't just him; none of the Scion of Noble Families present weren't envious.

Even if they didn't need it themselves, they could sell it to the Demon God Dojo and extort a hefty sum from them.

Sure enough, Bai Shiqi, at the signal of Elder Bai, secretly sent a Divine Thought message to Wu Xian: "Brother Wu, if you plan to sell, could you consider us? To be honest, we want to see if we can use this to pull the Queen of the Underworld into our Dengfeng Divine Domain."

Bai Shiqi's Divine Thought message carried a hint of mischief.

"What a coincidence, I had the same idea." Wu Xian replied with a wicked smile.

"Alright then."

Bai Shiqi was stunned, and his expression gradually became strange. When he looked at the members of the Demon God Dojo, he felt a strange sense of sympathy.

If they were to get the Queen of the Underworld's remnant spirit, they would at most just try, and incidentally disgust the Demon God Dojo. The chance of success wasn't zero, but it was pitifully small.

But given Wu Xian's outrageous capabilities, it was truly possible for him to empty the Demon God Dojo's coffers.

So, in his eyes, the Queen of the Underworld Legacy of the Demon God Dojo was already on shaky ground.

"Brother Wu Xian, what are your thoughts?"

The Demon God Dojo members hadn't yet realized the seriousness of the situation and were still curious about Wu Xian's insights.

Wu Xian pondered and said, "In the current era, you certainly only have that one Queen of the Underworld, but it was different when the Queen of the Underworld's creator was alive a thousand years ago."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone suddenly understood.

"Are you saying that this Queen of the Underworld might have fallen into the hands of the Evil God a thousand years ago?" The Demon God Dojo's eyes suddenly lit up. "But the problem is, Her Highness, the Queen of the Underworld, only forged the black axis eight hundred years ago, right? By that time, the Evil God should have been long expelled."

"That's also the part I can't figure out," Wu Xian speculated. "Or perhaps the perfection of the Queen of the Underworld's divine scroll imprint on your side also allowed the Evil God to reap benefits."
