History God: Cangjie?

Chen Ji's eyes were bright.

He has gradually come to understand the essence of arcane arts, including the essence of magic.

Ley Lines!

It is the vessel that carries magic.

If Chen Ji can shake or sever the Ley Lines, he will also render all magic in this area ineffective!

Because the medium through which the magic was transmitted had disappeared.

Therefore, magic no longer exists.

To make magic work, one must learn to construct Ley Lines. The main reason why the Three Sanctums are able to form Magic Barrier that protects reality is that the function of the Leyline Nodes has been maximized.

Weird World, a ruined Sanctum.

It's clear that there's a problem with the Ley Lines!

The Cosmic Celestial that burst forth from the sphere not only destroyed the material world but also leveled different planes and dismembered the omnipresent Ley Lines.

With this thought in mind, Chen Ji's eyes lit up, and he wanted to rebuild the Ley Lines...

The most crucial material is undoubtedly the World Tree!

After all, the roots of the World Tree are actually Ley Lines.

The Multiversal Tree.

Nutrients are obtained through the roots; nutrients are naturally related to energy!

"It seems... we must return to Asgard as soon as possible, negotiate with Odin, and try to obtain a piece of the World Tree's root!"

"King."

Have you finished reading the "Cangjie's Codex"?

Chen Ji's eyes flickered.

He immediately put down the Book of Merlin.

Meanwhile, Old Wang scratched his head, even though he came from the Eastern Nation, and reading the Cangjie's Codex was like looking at a book from heaven.

"No!"

"This secret manual is far too complex."

"I'm finding it a bit too much."

Old Wang looked distressed.

"Don't rush."

"The mastery of secret techniques is not something that can be achieved overnight."

"Let me see."

Chen Ji took the "Cangjie's Codex" and slowly began to turn the pages.

In the book.

It records a wide variety of Pictographic Script.

This gave him a real headache.

However, he soon discovered that the Pictographic Script had come to life, flashing with brilliant light.

Bizarre and fantastical images immediately flashed before his eyes.

It's as if one can see an elderly figure with two pupils and four eyes, draped in animal skin, looking down at the footprints of birds and beasts, gazing up at the movement of the stars, surveying the shapes of mountains and rivers, and examining the fingerprints on the palm of his hand...

Inspired by this, they created the astonishing and awe-inspiring Pictographic Script.

This baffled Chen Ji.

He actually witnessed the entire process of Cangjie creating characters?

Moment.

He then understood all Pictographic Script!

Furthermore, he could translate Pictographic Script into languages he knew effortlessly, as if Born Knowing!

Pictographic Script and Rune Script seem to possess the same power, emanating a mysterious aura that encompasses the Mystery of the sun, moon, stars, and all things.

Even the strokes of Pictographic Script can reveal traces of Primal Runes!

Chen Ji was startled!

"Could it be...?"

Rune Script originated from Pictographic Script.

"The Ancient Gods who created Rune Script... was actually Cangjie?"

Or rather...

"The Mystic Statue I found is actually Cangjie?"

"Cangjie."

"Is he the Story God in the Marvel Universe?"

Chen Ji's pupils contracted.

This fact is clearly unacceptable!

However, he also felt that it all made sense!

Because the entries he saw were all in Chinese!

But...

Norse Mythology and Eastern mythology are clearly two different systems!

Chen Ji was deeply puzzled.

It's impossible to make sense of it all.

We can only put speculation aside for now.

After all, he didn't have enough evidence yet, and even the Entry System hadn't made a sound.

Therefore, it is evident that the original Story God was not necessarily Cangjie.

"Call."

"Eastern culture is profound and extensive. After finishing the 'Cangjie's Codex,' one should also borrow other publications, such as..."

"The Bagua created by Fuxi".

"Master Murphyson."

"Does the library have any books about the Bagua?"

Chen Ji asked hurriedly.

The Bagua.

Kan, Li, Kun, Dui, Qian, Gen, Xun, Zhen.

Essentially.

It's also a manifestation of Rune!

It is much older than Cangjie's invention of characters.

Chen Ji's eyes were filled with anticipation.

But Master Murphyson shook his head.

"List."

"There are no books about Bagua in Kamar-Taj."

"Perhaps you can find fragments in the Ta Lo."

Master Murphyson could only manage a wry smile.

"Ta Lo..."

"I see."

Chen Ji nodded.

He discovered similar bamboo slips while surveying Ancient Ruins!

Now he has mastered the Mystery of Pictographic Script.

I can completely decipher the bamboo slips on my own!

But...

Old Wang is also an indispensable and crucial link.

I believe Ying Nan would be willing to sacrifice herself for the Ta Lo Secret Realm.

Besides, Old Wang is Mystic Arts Master, so marrying him wouldn't be a bad thing for Ying Nan at all.

"List."

"Have you deciphered the Cangjie's Codex?"

"Is Zun Du fake Du?"

"You've only had the Cangjie's Codex for less than a minute!"

Old Wang was dumbfounded.

One minute?

Can you then understand the Cangjie's Codex?

So what does that mean?

Moment.

He felt intellectually crushed; the gap between people was even greater than that between different species.

"King."

"It seems you don't understand Chen's talent."

"Even the <Essentials of the Mystic Arts> only took him a few days and nights to master."

Master Murphyson was used to it.

Yet, a hint of envy still crept into her eyes.

Such talent surpasses all other Mystic Arts Master; the era of Chen Ji is about to begin!

"I promised the Ancient One."

"I need to go and have a talk with Senior Brother Mordo and Kaecilius."

"King."

"Wait for me a moment, then I'll head to Asgard."

Chen Ji smiled.

Immediately, a Mystic Portal was opened, leading directly to Baron Mordo's courtyard.

The courtyard was covered with withered branches, as if it hadn't been cleaned in a long time.

The door was tightly shut.

A faint aura of magic was emanating from it.

Otherwise, Chen Ji would suspect that Mordo was already dead inside!

"Brother Mordo"

It's me.

How have you been lately?

Chen Ji knocked on the door, trying his best to show goodwill.

From both a moral and logical standpoint.

He had no need to be enemies with Mordo.

After all, Mordo has not yet betrayed Kamar-Taj, and we cannot impose future accusations on him now.

With a creak.

The door was ajar.

Baron Mordo's gaze was cold and hostile; his hair was disheveled and his beard was unkempt.

His pupils were bloodshot.

It seems like it's been a long time since I've been able to fall asleep.

The outcome of the sect's sparring match undoubtedly dealt him a heavy blow. This chief mage lost all dignity and suffered from mental distress day and night.

The position of Sorcerer Supreme, which was originally within his grasp, was actually passed on to Chen!

This shattered his ideals and fueled his jealousy!

To reduce internal friction, he devoted himself entirely to the study of dark magic, and his mastery of dark magic improved by leaps and bounds!

"List?"

"Your Excellency Acting Sorcerer Supreme, why have you come to see me? Are you here to laugh at me?"

Baron Mordo gave a forced, insincere smile.

His words were filled with resentment, and he was almost completely irrational.

"Brother Mordo"

"I've come to request Agamotto's work, <The Encyclopedia of Magic Arrays>."

"I'm preparing to head to Asgard to plan the construction of the Rune Academy."

"Furthermore... from my observation, the apprentice disciples' cultivation progress has stagnated, so I have come specifically to request your return to the sect."

Chen Ji forced a smile.

He didn't pay any attention to Mordo's sarcastic remarks.

Ultimately, Mordo's intention to become the Sorcerer Supreme simply to prove his worth and that he was qualified for the position.

He's not a villain in the true sense of the word.

However, becoming Sorcerer Supreme is not necessarily the only way to realize one's own value.

"Encyclopedia of Magic Arrays?"

"Here you go."

"I'm going to continue my seclusion now."

"I have decided to resign as chief mage and make way for another suitable Mystic Arts Master."

I'm tired.

Baron Mordo handed over the Encyclopedia of Magic Arrays, his expression icy, and prepared to close the door.

But Chen Ji stopped him.

"Brother Mordo"

"The position of Chief Mage belongs to you alone."

"Without your guidance, I might not have achieved what I have today."

"You're the one who taught me how to use the Sling Ring."

Chen Ji greeted everyone with a smile.

This caused Mordo's expression to soften slightly.

It looks like there's a chance.

Chen Ji intensified his attack, expressing his heartfelt admiration.

"Brother Mordo"

"Without your presence, Kamar-Taj might not have been able to develop in an orderly manner, and the apprentices you selected have gradually become the backbone of Kamar-Taj."

"The Ancient One has mentioned more than once that Senior Brother Mordo shared the pressure on the sect for her."

"It's a real pity that she can't show it because of her status."

Chen Ji showered him with compliments.

Let's stabilize Mordo for now and then decide what to do!

"Real?"

"Did the Ancient One really say that?"

Mordo raised an eyebrow, incredulous.

He never received any praise or compliments from the Ancient One!

"I have no reason to lie to you."

"Brother Mordo"

"Every trainee disciple has seen your contributions; they have never been in vain."

Chen Ji's words were earnest and his delivery was full of emotion.

This immediately moved Baron Mordo deeply.

Turn out to be...

Did the Ancient One not ignore his contributions? Did he always remember them?

Then why wasn't the position of Sorcerer Supreme passed down to him?!

Baron Mordo was displeased.

"Senior brother."

"What are the duties and mission of His Sorcerer Supreme?"

Chen Ji's expression turned solemn.

"Resist the invasion of the Dark Dimension and maintain peace in the Hidden World..."

"May Kamar-Taj endure forever...?"

Mordo frowned.

Why are we talking about the duties and mission of His Sorcerer Supreme?

List...

What exactly is going on behind the scenes?

"Brother Mordo"

"By serving as the chief sorcerer, training all the apprentices, and cultivating talent for Kamar-Taj, haven't you already fulfilled the duties and mission of the Sorcerer Supreme?"

"What If...? your help, Kamar-Taj would also face an awkward situation of being unable to replace the fallen Guardian Mage, resist the Dark Dimension, or maintain the peace of the Hidden World!"

"Actually, you've never realized it, but although you don't have the title of Sorcerer Supreme, you've already fulfilled the mission of the Sorcerer Supreme!"

"You have become the Sorcerer Supreme!"

Chen Ji, progressing from simple to complex, were powerful and resonant. In just a few sentences, they sent a whirlwind through Baron Mordo's mind, causing him to feel dizzy.

"I... have become the Sorcerer Supreme?"

Mordo's face was blank.

"That's right!"

"If you believe you are the Sorcerer Supreme, then you are the Sorcerer Supreme. Tell me, in the entire Hidden World, who doesn't know the Ancient One, who doesn't know Mordo?"

"And how many of me actually know about the Acting Sorcerer Supreme?"

"Brother Mordo"

"In my heart, you are the Sorcerer Supreme."

"I will persuade the Ancient One to reform the system of Kamar-Taj and establish Mystic Council of at least five members, and your name will certainly be on it!"

Chen Ji dropped another bombshell.

Baron Mordo's eyes lit up.

He immediately guessed Chen Ji's thoughts!

"The Mystic Council?"

"You want to delegate power?!"

"Mordo exclaimed in surprise."

Decentralization?!

Chen's appetite was even bigger than his?

But...

Chen won the sect competition and is about to succeed the Ancient One as the next Sorcerer Supreme. The establishment of the Mystic Council to share power also weakens his authority!

Mordo was immediately confused.

"Decentralization?"

"No."

"On the contrary."

"My goal is to improve Kamar-Taj's power structure and bring it in line with the times. The role of the Mystic Council is primarily to address major decisions within Kamar-Taj and to establish Kamar-Taj's strategic direction."

"Currently, all decisions regarding Kamar-Taj rest entirely on the Ancient One's will, and since she is often away traveling, it is mainly you and Hamir who are responsible for the normal operation of Kamar-Taj."

"Then let's simply establish Mystic Council and bring you, Hamir, and the temple mages of the Three Sanctums into the Mystic Council."

"Not only that..."

"I will also push for the formation of an allied army in the Hidden World, and try to bring as many members of the Hidden Families as possible into Kamar-Taj, so that they will obey the orders of the Mystic Council."

"Brother Mordo"

What are your thoughts?

Chen Ji recounted the story in detail.

He didn't hide his plan; he saw that the Hidden World was loosely organized and needed a separate Hidden World to act as a lubricant for it.

Therefore, the Mystic Council is the best choice!

Delegating the power of the Sorcerer Supreme will also keep the nominal Mystic Arts Master in check. The Ravenous Ambition Baron Mordo will most likely not refuse!

Are you sure the Ancient One would agree to this proposal?

Baron Mordo's eyes flickered.

Without a doubt, he was tempted!

What he wanted wasn't fame, but power!
