Chapter 635: The Painting of Mounts and Rivers of the Gods of Earth and Vale

Shen Lian’s words were like the evening drum and the morning bell. Every time, Fairy Taisu felt like she caught a glimpse of the meaning, it never felt too realistic, just like she was looking at flowers in the fog.

All of a sudden, she felt a wind blew. Shen Ruoxi was no longer with her.

Shen Ruoxi was still rather confused at that particular moment but it soon became clear to her as she said joyfully, “Uncle.”

Shen Lian patted her head and smiled.

Fairy Taisu’s gaze became sharper, “Whoever you’re, you will have to die today.”

Shen Lian sighed, “I’ve woke up but you’re still in a dream. The battles you’ve gone through with Ruoxi have exhausted you. You don’t stand a chance.”

….

Within the imperial capital, Fan Zhen opened his eyes all of a sudden. He walked out of his residence. The moment he crossed the door, he saw a Daoist waiting ahead, like the respected Daoist Lingbao at the palace of Sanqing. He gazed at him as he held on to a jade Ruyi.

Fan Zhen sneered, “Indeed you guys are playing a trick. I will kill you first, and him next.”

The sleeves sent out the Qi of Qian and Kun to kill Tao Hong. Tao Hong clasped his hands, and a layer of Qi blocked out the Qi of Qian and Kun.

He was the independently formed Shangqing Primordial Spirit. His psyche was strong and it was easy for him to control the Qi of heaven and earth.

Specks of dust were flying everywhere in the imperial capital. The weather had changed. The last time this happened was when Xiao Dao seized the throne.

………

Fairy Taisu said, “You’re just dressing up as God and playing the devil.”

Shen Lian smiled. Regardless of how powerful the Primal Lord of Grand Simplicity was, what was here, was only part of her will. She was not comparable with the fully awakened Shen Lian.

He had also taken back the Qi of Taixu which he had divided.

Fairy Taisu could see Shen Lian’s aura increasing as if he was out of this world and everything was just his background.

The silver strands of her duster were like the waterfall. They came crashing as if they were being attracted by an invisible energy field. The mana attached to the silver strands were absorbed by the mysterious energy field and she could feel herself weakening.

Shen Lian’s aura was still increasing as if there was no end to it.

Even before Fairy Taisu pulled out the duster from the mysterious energy field, the mana absorbed suddenly reversed its course. This felt like the reversal of the water at a leaking dam. It turned into a disaster within the blink of an eye.

At the same time, Shen Lian pushed his palms forward like he was pushing the entire heaven and earth. The strength that could shatter mountain and sea eventually landed on Fairy Taisu’s chest. She was filled with disbelief and turned into dust in the end.

Shen Lian felt he was losing his strength. This once again proved that this world was not so simple as just a dream.

Within the imperial capital, Tao Hong was still stopping Fan Zhen from leaving.

He had taken three hundred and eight attacks by Fan Zhen. The thick wall of Qi was already shattered. However, wherever Fan Zhen went, Tao Hong followed suit.

The path of the bluestone had turned powdery, revealing the yellow mud underneath.

Soon, Fan Zhen stopped. He sneered suddenly, “This time I admit I lose. You should pray that you will never see me again.”

Subsequently, he dispersed like the dust. He left no trace behind.

At that moment, Shen Lian was holding Shen Ruoxi’s hand towards the direction. Shen Ruoxi’s brows furrowed, “After this will returns to the original body, it will have revealed about us. In the future, there will surely be problems.” While in theory she was one with the Primal Lord of Grand Simplicity but in reality after her acquired knowledge, she had never thought about becoming the Primal Lord of Grand Simplicity even though it would be asking for the moon.

Shen Lian said, “I guess there’s nothing we can do about it.”

Then Tao Hong turned to look at Shen Lian and vice versa, the two laughed. They were the same person but at that moment it felt like it was between ‘you and me’.

Suddenly Tao Hong spoke, “I want to stay here and contain the world within me.”

Shen Lian asked, “Are you trying to imitate Lu Jiuyuan?”

Tao Hong smiled, “You’re the one who’s trying to imitate Lu Jiuyuan. I am you.”

Shen Lian smiled, “I am you.”

Subsequently, Shen Lian and Shen Ruoxi disappeared from the imperial capital.

Shen Lian opened his eyes and the painting scroll in the Hall of Founding Masters was now in front of him. Inside the painting, it had all the mountains and waters. There was a Daoist who looked the same as him. He was meditating in the mountains.

The dream was using the heaven and earth in this painting which never materialized to play the realistic heaven and earth. This was not something that could be explained by the Dream Heart Sutra.

Furthermore, he had the seeds of the heaven and earth and hence, he understood how difficult it was to create the living beings of heaven and earth. The time it would take was tremendous and immeasurable.

He too knew that, from the dream to waking up, it was just a flick of the fingers.

Using the flick of the fingers to demonstrate the real world could only possibly be achieved by Daoist Master or Buddha.

Within Qing Xuan, for those who had the Daoist rhythm of Daoist Master Taiyi, they would definitely not play the tricks here. There was only one explanation which was the arrangement of Daoist Master Taiyi.

Shen Lian, however, did not understand the intention of the Daoist Master. For that sort of level, even until then he could not have even guessed. The one thing he was sure of was that the Daoist Master Taiyi, the supreme person who had detached was paying attention to him.

Shen Lian felt that it was a pity that the world within the painting had too little Qi of vitality. As such, it was not great for cultivation.

He looked at the scroll once, and he spoke with a deep voice, “From now onward, you will be named the painting of Mounts and Rivers of the Gods of Earth and Vale.”

The scroll shook silently as if it silently agreed with the name.

Shen Lian could feel the imprint of Shangqing primordial spirit combining with the painting of Mounts and Rivers of the Gods of Earth and Vale slowly. It too began to absorb the Qi of vitality of the external world and it was making the mountain and the river within the painting more spiritual.

If sufficient Qi of vitality was absorbed, it was possible that the world within the painting of Mounts and Rivers of the Gods of Earth and Vale could become a Fortune Land.

If that was the case, this part of the world would be sucked dry.

However, Shen Lian too had finally obtained a legendary Lingbao. The painting was not as great as the bestowment of the painting of Mounts and Rivers of the Gods of Earth and Vale but it could continue to grow until it became a new world.

The Xuan Ice was finally melted and Ruoxi was safe. Shen Lian could consider having another burden down before he went to see Lu Jiuyuan. Shen Ruoxi was too happy that she got to meet her uncle again. She knew that her uncle would not be gone forever.

The only thing was when Shen Lian told her about Gu Caiwei’s passing. Shen Ruoxi was not too happy about it, although she already predicted it before she went through death.

She could tell how down her uncle was and hence, she decided to not pursue the answer. Instead, she mentioned something important.

She said, “Uncle, Yanxu is probably still alive.”

Shen Lian asked, “How do you know?”

“Fairy Tianmeng once told me that, before the battle with you, Yanxu went to the Underworld Demon Sect. She said that Ye Liuyun from the Underworld Demon Sect is a mysterious and scary person. It would be impossible for Yanxu to be at the Underworld Demon Sect without him knowing. However, Yanxu returned unharmed. It seemed that the two of them didn’t have any conflict and furthermore, the demonic seed Yanxu planted on Fairy Tianmeng too doesn’t disappear after you and Yanxu went missing.”
