Accidentally falling into a rift in time, I was transmigrated into a book that my cousin had complained about. Since I'm starting over from scratch, I intend to live a splendid life.
Afte...
What a beautiful person she was! Her fair and smooth face revealed a sharp and cold demeanor; her dark and lively peach blossom eyes shone with a captivating luster, softening her cold temperament; her high and straight nose and exquisitely shaped lips exuded nobility and elegance.
His sword-like eyebrows slanted into the few strands of black hair at his temples, his facial features perfectly proportioned. A small blue magnolia blossom mark between his brows added to his air of mystery.
All the cultivators were captivated, and for a moment the entire place fell silent.
“Lord Lieyang, Lord Hanqing.” At this moment, a voice suddenly broke the silence.
Lieyang Venerable and Shulan looked in the direction of the sound and saw an elder dressed in the robes of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion standing up.
He clasped his hands in a respectful bow to Shu Lan, "Venerable Han Qing, may I paint a portrait of you?"
"What do you want my junior brother's portrait for?" Venerable Lieyang stepped forward and asked loudly.
"Venerable Han Qing's appearance is unparalleled, and the whole world should know of his appearance." The elder of Tianji Pavilion praised, "We will hang Venerable Han Qing's portrait on our Tianji Pavilion's list of handsome men and beautiful women, so that the whole world can admire him."
Just as Venerable Lieyang was about to say something, the elder of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion spoke up again: "Of course, we won't take Venerable Hanqing's portrait for nothing. We will exchange it for the Immortal Traces Visualization Diagram."
"The Immortal Traces Visualization Diagram!" Venerable Lieyang was shocked and momentarily tempted.
"Senior brother, is there anything special about this Immortal Traces Visualization Diagram?" Shu Lan asked, noticing the burning desire in Venerable Lieyang.
"This Immortal Traces Visualization Diagram is an extremely precious treasure. When cultivators view this diagram, it can enhance their cultivation insights, regardless of their cultivation level!" Venerable Lieyang's tone was somewhat excited.
After careful consideration, Shu Lan understood the value of this visualization diagram. First of all, the fact that it could enhance one's cultivation insights was already remarkable. Furthermore, it did not restrict the viewer's cultivation level, meaning that cultivators at the same level as herself and her senior brother would also benefit from viewing this visualization diagram.
After careful consideration, this Immortal Traces Visualization Diagram is truly a rare treasure. Shu Lan glanced at Venerable Lieyang, then at the elder of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, and fell into deep thought.
At this moment, the elder of Tianji Pavilion was very uneasy, after all, this Immortal Traces Visualization Diagram was given to him by the head of Wanbao Pavilion.
The head of Wanbaoge was very grateful for Shulan's help at the Tengyun Gathering, so he took out the Immortal Traces Visualization Diagram and asked an elder from Tianjige to give it to Shulan. He instructed the elder from Tianjige not to tell Shulan that this item was a gift from Wanbaoge.
The elder of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion originally intended to hand over the Immortal Traces Visualization Diagram directly to Shu Lan, but upon seeing Shu Lan in person, he suddenly changed his mind. He wanted to draw Shu Lan's portrait so that everyone in the cultivation world could admire it.
Just as the elders of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion were feeling uneasy, Shu Lan made up his mind and said, "Alright, I agree!"
Venerable Lieyang looked at Shulan in surprise: "Junior brother, you..."
"It's alright, senior brother, it's just a painting." Shu Lan patted Venerable Lieyang on the shoulder.
Venerable Lieyang was deeply moved. He knew that his junior brother had fought for him, sacrificing his own portrait to obtain this treasure for him, because he wanted the Immortal Traces Visualization Painting.
"Phew, that's great!" The elder of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion also breathed a sigh of relief.
He took out a scroll and used magic to engrave Shu Lan's image into it. After the portrait of Shu Lan was finished, he put the scroll away.
"This is the Immortal Traces Visualization Diagram, now to be handed over to Venerable Hanqing." The elder of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion took out a visualization diagram and handed it to Shulan.
After receiving the visualization diagram, Shu Lan immediately handed it to Venerable Lieyang.
After opening the visualization diagram and confirming that it was correct, Venerable Lieyang nodded to the elder of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, "This is indeed the Immortal Traces Visualization Diagram."
Afterwards, Venerable Lieyang returned the visualization diagram to Shulan.
"Senior brother?" Shu Lan asked, somewhat puzzled.
"This was exchanged for your portrait, so it should be given to you. Just lend it to me when I need it, junior brother," Venerable Lieyang said, patting Shulan on the shoulder.
“Alright!” Shu Lan nodded, agreeing to Venerable Lieyang’s request.
When Shu Lan received the visualization diagram again, she noticed an unusual fluctuation because the diagram was open.
This fluctuation felt very familiar to Shu Lan, and she searched her memory carefully.
Suddenly, Shu Lan knew where this familiar feeling came from. He realized that the sensation he felt from this fluctuation was exactly the same as the aura emanating from the Book God.
Shu Lan immediately began to speculate whether this painting of immortal traces was related to the God of Books. While thinking this, he kept rolling up the scroll and putting it into his storage ring.
Qin An had been quite displeased ever since the elders of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion requested to paint a portrait of his master. He didn't want anyone else to see his master's portrait; he only wanted to admire his master's appearance himself.
When his master agreed to paint the portrait, Qin An felt a pang of sadness. He was extremely unhappy, as if his master had been snatched away by many others. He wanted to hide his master away, to admire him only by himself.
Thinking of this, Qin An quickly patted his cheeks.
Qin An, oh Qin An, what are you thinking? Master Brother is free; he cannot be hidden away. Master Brother should be the center of attention; he is the best.
Thus, Qin An could only suppress his bitter feelings and watch helplessly as the elders of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion painted a portrait of his master brother.
"I didn't expect that Brother Shu Lan is quite popular!" After the elder of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion finished drawing the portrait, the Demon Emperor Ling Tian said with a smile.
"It's nothing, just a physical appearance," Shu Lan said calmly, without any arrogance.
"Just this appearance alone is enough to make many people look up to him. What's more, young brother Shu Lan, I believe your inner qualities are even more outstanding than your outward appearance," said Demon Emperor Ling Tian with a chuckle.
"Thank you for the compliment, Brother Lingtian," Shu Lan said with a smile, thanking the Demon Emperor Lingtian.
After this brief interlude, the birthday banquet of Demon Emperor Lingtian continued.
As everyone drank, they began to feel a bit bored.
Demon Emperor Ling Tian also felt a bit bored, so he asked, "Fellow Daoists, do you have any novel ideas to make my birthday banquet more lively?"
The cultivators began to discuss it amongst themselves.
"I have an idea." At this moment, a loud voice suddenly rang out in the banquet.
