Chapter 367 - Time Can Leave Behind the Memories but It Can also Take away the Mountains and Rivers
Painting Level 1 (0/1): A sophisticated art form capable of capturing the essence of time and encompassing the vastness of the world!
“Congratulations, host, on the successful decomposition. Would you like to proceed with the extraction and fusion?”
“Extract and fuse!”
At Jiang Hao's command, he instantly mastered the skill of painting.
Jiang Hao now approached the system's skill introductions with newfound caution. He had been led astray by the system before, but he was no longer taking these explanations lightly.
The system held the painting skill in high regard, suggesting that mastery could freeze moments in time and encapsulate the entirety of nature.
This implied that once he reached the Dacheng level in painting, he might be able to preserve time within his artwork, or even create a painting that could hold mountains and rivers.
Initially, Jiang Hao found this notion somewhat far-fetched, but upon deeper reflection, he was astounded. It might actually be possible!
Legend spoke of Nuwa's Mountain and River Diagram of Du Su, a remarkable scroll that contained its own world, capable of holding mountains and rivers. Was this not the pinnacle of painting?
Yet, this scroll was a creation of nature itself, not the work of human hands.
Could it be that if he fully developed his painting skill, he too could wield such power?
Jiang Hao was disheartened.
“Do I really need an original from a renowned master?”
With no other option, Jiang Hao reluctantly called Jia Renjie to request a few pieces of authentic calligraphy from master teachers and to help him find an ancient chess manual!
The Jia Family truly lived up to their reputation as one of Tianhee City's elite. Shortly after Jiang Hao's request, Jia Renjie personally delivered the items!
The Jiang Family was stunned to see Jia Renjie, the patriarch of a top-tier family in Tianhee City, arriving at their doorstep.
But when they saw the deference he showed Jiang Hao, the expressions of Jiang Hao's parents and his sister Jiang Zixuan spoke volumes.
They couldn't pinpoint when their son had reached such heights.
Soong Wanzhong, esteemed as the Jade King, showed respect to their son. The young mistress of the Heavenly-Mansion Tavern, a notable figure in her own right, was also acquainted with him.
And now, the current head of the Jia Family, a preeminent household in Tianhee City!
It seemed they had overlooked Jiang Hao's development from the start!
But in the end, that was inconsequential. As long as Jiang Hao remained their son and Zixuan's brother, that was all that mattered!
Jiang Hao gratefully received the three pieces of calligraphy from master teachers and two somewhat ancient, fragmented chess manuals from Jia Renjie's hands.
