Lin Qi, maintaining his quiet life in the small town, was occasionally visited by the Dimensional Vendor (Chapter 28), who now humbly supplied him with endless salty plums and soft pastries in exchange for the honor of breathing the same air.
One morning, the vendor, quaking with anxiety, presented Lin Qi with a fragile, massive Divine Communication Scroll—an artifact from the upper realms designed to receive urgent warnings from high-level Celestial beings.
"Master!" the vendor whispered. "The Scroll is receiving a complex, critical message from the Throne of Ages! It is a code that predicts a coming dimensional catastrophe! Only a master of Cosmic Decoding can interpret the rapidly shifting spiritual pictograms before the message vanishes!"
Lin Qi accepted the scroll. He was promised a hot, freshly baked apple tart if he succeeded.
The Problem of the Spiritual Pictograms
The Divine Communication Scroll was filled with rapidly shifting, complex spiritual pictograms—thousands of them, changing every second. Interpreting the code required simultaneous comprehension and stabilization of these symbols.
Lin Qi stared at the scroll. The shifting pictures were making him feel slightly dizzy. He didn't see spiritual pictograms; he saw a tedious, rapidly moving puzzle.
He decided that the best way to understand moving pictures was to capture them. He picked up a piece of charcoal and, in an attempt to stabilize his vision, began to randomly doodle on the edges of the scroll. He wasn't decoding; he was just trying to sketch the last few blurry shapes he saw before they vanished.
The Cosmic Decoding
The sealed Core of Infinite Density immediately perceived the intent: capture and stabilize the moving cosmic symbols. G-EVS's original power, the Dao of Eternal Imprinting, was triggered.
Lin Qi's random charcoal scribbles were instantly imbued with the power of the Core. The doodles did not merely record the blurry shapes; they acted as Cosmic Stabilizers, instantly locking the spiritual symbols he was observing into the charcoal matrix.
The scribbles were not random; they were a perfect, ultra-compressed spiritual snapshot of the entire, complex Divine Communication Scroll's final, critical message. The chaos was instantly reduced to a simple, stable drawing.
Lin Qi stepped back from the scroll. "There. Now I can look at them without getting dizzy."
He had drawn a small, recognizable charcoal sketch of the last three pictograms: a Broken Mountain, a Closed Eye, and a Smiling Face.
The Interpretation of the Doodled Prophecy
The Dimensional Vendor, along with several high-ranking disciples from the Shrine of the Empty Seat who had secretly followed him, rushed forward to examine the scroll. They expected to see chaos. They saw the entire message successfully stabilized and compressed into three simple, stable charcoal doodles at the bottom.
The disciples gasped in awe. The vendor bowed until his forehead touched the ground.
"The Mudra of Simple Truth!" cried the lead disciple. "He didn't decode the message—he compressed the infinite truth into three eternal symbols!"
Princess Lianhua, who arrived moments later via teleportation, instantly analyzed the doodles:
* Broken Mountain: "The current, chaotic structure of the cultivation world is destined to shatter."
* Closed Eye: "Ignorance and spiritual blindness are the cause of the coming catastrophe."
* Smiling Face: "The only path to salvation is the acceptance of the Master's cheerful, chaotic method!"
Lianhua declared the doodles the "Three Commandments of the Doodled Prophecy," instantly creating the entire framework for the sect's political and spiritual future.
"The Master has spoken! He revealed the crisis and the solution with a single act of contemptuous simplicity! His random scribble is the ultimate form of Cosmic Communication!"
Lin Qi accepted his apple tart, completely unaware that he had just solved a dimensional crisis and given the cultivation world its most important prophetic doctrine, merely because he was trying to avoid dizziness.
