Yi Chan waved her hand and indicated for everyone to back down. She looked at Jiang Yi passionately and asked, “You are?”
Jiang Yi looked at Yi Chan indifferently and didn’t know how to reply. Yi Chan should have a special ability that could vaguely sense his identity and might have guessed that he was Bai Yi. Otherwise, her eyes wouldn’t have been so bright, but Jiang Yi wasn’t so silly enough to admit it. Thus, he simply remained silent.
“Let him in!”
An awe-inspiring voice echoed in the sky above the Painting Cliffs. The group of guards had solemn expressions as they all knelt on a single knee and yelled out, “We sincerely obey Buddha Emperor’s orders!”
Yi Chan took a glance at the north, and when she saw that Jiang Yi didn’t have any intention to speak, she shook her hand and said, “Alright, you can enter.”
“Many thanks, Young Lady Yi Chan!”
Jiang Yi let out a breath of relief. It seemed like that mysterious elder didn’t lie to him, and he must have a close relationship with the Yi Clan and might be consecrator of the Yi Clan. Jiang Yi casually bowed to Yi Chan with cupped hands and flew towards the gateway in the sky before quickly vanishing from everyone’s vision.
Yi Chan stared blankly at Jiang Yi’s rearview and flew into the gateway a moment later. That peak-stage Heaven Monarch commander then waved his hand and said, “Close the restriction!”
Swish! Swish!
Thousands of Heaven Monarchs struck out their essence force, causing the barrier to flash with white light and the gateway to vanish. The barrier had turned back into its translucent state and regained its serenity.
“Who is that? He is actually qualified to enter the Painting Cliffs?”
“Yeah, that person shouldn’t be a descendant of a major clan. If not, Young Lady Yi would have recognized him. This person isn’t simple for the Buddha Emperor to personally give his orders.”
“He is only at the first stage of Heaven Monarch Realm and isn’t even better than me, but he had such preferential treatment. It is truly infuriating to be compared with others…”
A group of people was in a discussion on the outside. Many people didn’t return and simply waited for three days for everyone inside the Painting Cliffs to come back out. They wanted to see the supreme svelte of these young masters and ladies from the great clans.
…
Buzz!
Jiang Yi entered the gateway and felt a white flash while the world in front of his eyes had changed drastically.
His eyes took a glance, and he was slightly astonished. The rumors said that the Painting Cliffs was a canyon, and from the outside, it looked like a tall mountain. Right now, he realized that the rumors and the scenery from the outside were fake.
There was indeed a mountain at the front, but there weren’t any canyon. There was just an expansive and boundless sheer cliff. The cliff was flat and smooth, and at the first look, it seemed just like a white sheet of paper that was suspended in the sky. It was just like a giant painting hung in the sky.
The cliff was at least ten miles in length and 300 meters in height. There were indeed plenty of paintings that were engraved on the cliffs with some great divine ability. Right in front of Jiang Yi, there was a painting which was 150 meters in width. It was abnormally majestic and impressive, and it made a huge impact on the heart.
This is a stone carving painting and should be carved out directly by using a sword. It has been so many years, but it still looks so vivid and lifelike. The Buddha Thearch truly has amazing skills.
Jiang Yi sighed with emotions and scanned the surroundings with his divine senses. He discovered that the twelve individuals that entered were all gathered in groups of twos and threes, and they were staring intently at the paintings and completely didn’t notice him.
“Wu Ni!”
As he scanned several miles to the left, his eyes suddenly turned cold. Of course, the killing intent merely flashed in his eyes for a moment before he withdrew it. He felt a spatial wave behind him, and a light womanly fragrance traveled over. He was very familiar with this smell and knew it was Yi Chan.
“You have killing aura from your body, and you wish to kill Wu Ni. Bai Yi… is it you?”
A transmitted voice echoed in Jiang Yi’s mind. He blinked his eyes but didn’t turn to face Yi Chan while he muttered in his heart. It seemed like Yi Chan truly had a type of mystical ability, or she was born with especially powerful senses as she actually saw through the Mirage Divine Ability.
I must not be tangled with Yi Chan anymore. Jiang Yi, this woman is a poisonous flower, and it will make you be consigned to eternal damnation!
Jiang Yi’s mind floated with a thought, and he quickly turned heartless. He turned his face slightly and looked at Yi Chan with the corner of his eye and transmitted a message with an icy-cold voice: “Young Lady Yi Chan, you got the wrong person.”
Swish!
Jiang Yi no longer spoke more with Yi Chan and flew straight to observe the Heaven Painting that was in front of him.
“Uh…”
Yi Chan wasn’t used to Jiang Yi’s indifferent tone, and it didn’t matter if Jiang Yi was Bai Yi or not, she just didn’t like it. After all, all the men around her had always been respectful towards her and would even speak with care as they were afraid they might say something that would make her unhappy. However, Jiang Yi behaved so indifferently?
“Hmph!”
Yi Chan’s eyes quickly turned cold as she turned away and flew while fuming with anger. She no longer took another look at Jiang Yi. She had a proud character since she was young and seeing how Jiang Yi treated her, she was naturally unhappy.
Jiang Yi didn’t bother about Yi Chan. He floated in the air while quietly observing the giant painting in front of him. His arrival had finally attracted the attention of the nearby people. Jian Wuying and an ancient clan’s young lady were just nearby, and the two of them took a suspicious glance over while having slightly precautious eyes. After they saw Yi Chan coming in as well, they didn’t bother and thought he was a Yi clansman.
Wu Ni, Tu Long, Yin Ruobing, and the others had also quickly scanned over with their divine senses, but they didn’t pay too much attention. Yi Chan had also entered which made everyone at ease. Since Yi Chan didn’t say anything, they naturally didn’t bother as well. They only had three days inside this place, and every minute and second were extremely precious.
The Heaven Painting which Jiang Yi was looking at was very simple. It was an ancient tree which was like a firmament. There was a little monk seated cross-legged under the tree, and he was accompanied by a donkey. Even though this Heaven Painting was massive and was even carved on stone, the painting skills were much more brilliant than Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi was dazzled and felt as though it wasn’t a painting but real-life scenery. He could even feel that donkey beside the little monk looking at him.
What dao pattern is contained inside this Heaven Painting? Why can I feel the dao pattern inside, but I cannot sense any dao presence at all?
Jiang Yi stared for one hour. His mind would have this faint feeling but whenever he wanted to grasp that feeling, it would vanish without a trace. It was just like the wind that couldn’t be seen or touched but could be felt.
“Go!”
After observing for two hours, Jiang Yi confirmed that he was unable to comprehend the dao pattern inside this Heaven Painting and decided to change to another place.
One must not stubbornly persist. The dao pattern engraved in the painting wasn’t some low-grade dao pattern but powerful high-grade dao pattern. If one could easily comprehend it, then the Yi Clan would be crawling with Demigods.
Ling Qijian, Wu Ni, Tu Long, and the others were also constantly changing spots. It was obvious that they too couldn’t capture the dao presence and were unable to comprehend it. Hence, they were changing to other Heaven Paintings to see if they had the opportunity to comprehend the dao patterns inside them.
Inside the Painting Cliffs, it was filled with nothing but silence. It was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard. No one dared to act recklessly inside this place wouldn’t want to waste a second in this place either. They were all floating quietly in the sky while carefully comprehending the Heaven Paintings.
One painting, two… six!
After twelve hours, Jiang Yi had switched six places while Wu Ni and the others had switched seven to eight places. Everyone who entered didn’t receive a trace of reward.
Everyone was switching places, apart from Yi Chan who had been quietly standing in front of the Heaven Painting at the leftmost. Her beautiful eyes were heavily clouded as though something was disturbing her.
The six paintings were all different. Some were landscape paintings, some were portraits, and there were also some which were battlefield paintings. The standard of all the paintings was extremely high, and it would allow the observer to feel as though they were inside the painting. It felt very dream-like.
“What is Yi Chan looking at? En?”
Jiang Yi scanned with his divine senses and noticed that Yi Chan wasn’t moving. He curiously scanned at the Heaven Painting in front of her, and his eyes instantly got shockingly bright. He was so stirred up that his body was trembling, his breath got erratic as his chest was heaving.
Inside that painting, there were three individuals in combat. A monk was battling with an elder, and a beautiful young lady was observing the battle.
The young lady was very beautiful, so much that Jiang Yi’s eyes were dazzled. That young lady was his mother, Yi Piaopiao, and that person battling with the monk was that elder who accompanied Yi Piaopiao and ventured to Sky Thunder Island.
Swish!
Jiang Yi paused for a moment and immediately flew to the Heaven Painting like a rainbow.
