Chapter 593: The Painting of Time
As soon as he arrived at the main building, Li Hao felt the presence of Su Muqing and Su Wanqing, and immediately descended from the balcony and stepped in.
"Sister Lan Qin, when will the Dragon Rhyme Painting Fairy arrive?"
Su Muqing said curiously.
"On the way. When everyone else arrives, Long Yun Hua Xian should be here too."
Another gentle voice said, as elegant as a lady from a noble family.
"Are all these paintings by the immortal Long Yun? They are so beautiful. I feel like they all contain the origin of life. I can become a warrior in the painting."
Su Wanqing's voice was also heard, exclaiming with the joy and liveliness of a young girl.
"These are the early works of the Fairy Long Yun. I heard that she will bring her most recent paintings to this exhibition, and then you sisters will be able to see the original works."
Said the gentle voice.
Li Hao walked into the pavilion and immediately smelled the body fragrance of many women. He saw a group of beautiful women wearing fairy long skirts, like hundreds of hair blooming.
Among them, the most eye-catching are four figures, namely Su Muqing and Su Wanqing, a woman in a dark blue dress, and a girl in pale green clothes. They are all gathered in front of the two paintings. The four of them form a small circle, and the others form a large circle outside.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Su Muqing, who was talking, changed her expression, turned around, and immediately saw Li Hao approaching.
Her face changed, and she said angrily: "How did you get in? Who let you in?!"
Hearing her sudden shout, the pavilion that was originally filled with laughter and joy suddenly became quiet. Everyone turned their heads in surprise, and when they saw a strange young man, they were inevitably surprised and started talking in low voices.
"Who is this person who could have made Miss Su so angry?"
"He is quite handsome."
"Sister Mu Qing, what is this?"
Lan Qin, the owner of the Hu Ting Tower, looked at Su Muqing in surprise. It was rare to see her angry. After all, with the power and authority of the Su family, no one in Gusu Imperial Star dared to provoke Miss Zhenfeng.
"A greedy scoundrel."
Su Muqing gritted her teeth.
Su Wanqing's face was full of surprise. She didn't know how Li Hao got in. You know, the other party here doesn't have an identity of the Su family. Could he have pretended to be a member of the Su family to get in?
Su Muqing and Su Wanqing thought of the same thing, and immediately turned to Lan Qin, who was wearing a dark blue dress, and said, "Sister Lan Qin, he is not a member of our Su family, you should have someone kick him out!"
Lan Qin was stunned, her eyes moving slightly. The reason why she could mingle with the young ladies from the big families of Gusu Imperial Star was not only because of her good family background, but also because of her thoughtful and thoughtful interpersonal skills. With the power behind Su Muqing and her own strength, it was impossible for ordinary people to make her angry.
People often get angry only because they are helpless.
If the problem can be solved easily, why would I be angry?
In this case, the identity of this young man is worth pondering.
"Sister Mu Qing, don't worry."
Lan Qin comforted Su Muqing, then smiled and looked at Li Hao, saying: "I wonder which family this young master belongs to? Today we are here to enjoy the exhibition, not to compete. I am afraid that we did not invite you, right?"
She said this in a relaxed manner and did not rashly offend Li Hao.
Su Muqing raised her eyebrows and turned to look at Li Hao. She only knew that there was an emperor behind Li Hao, but she didn't know which family he came from. She wanted to hear it now.
Li Hao naturally could not mention the Southern Region, so he simply skipped the previous question and said, "My name is Haotian, and I am not here to compete or fight. I also know a little about painting, so I am here to appreciate it."
"Do you know how to draw?"
Lan Qin and others looked at each other. Apart from Li Hao, there were only two or three men present, and the remaining dozens were all women.
This art of painting is a minor art. Most of the men who can get close to their circle are geniuses. How could they be interested in these things? They don’t even have time to practice them.
"You are talking nonsense."
Seeing that Li Hao avoided talking about his family and instead spoke shamelessly, Su Muqing could not help but get angry and said, "You sneaked in under the name of my Su family, but Sister Lan Qin never invited you!"
Lan Qin also frowned slightly at this time and said to Li Hao: "Sir, I'm sorry I can't entertain you without an invitation."
Li Hao immediately said: "Someone brought me in. My coming here has nothing to do with the Su family."
"who?"
Su Muqing immediately said angrily, obviously not believing it completely. If someone really brought Li Hao in, she would like to see who likes to meddle in other people's business!
Li Hao shook his head. "The other party didn't tell me his name. I can prove it when I see him later."
Lan Qin showed doubt in her eyes, but seeing that Li Hao was very confident and didn't seem to be lying, she was a little troubled for a moment. If she drove him away, she was afraid that she would lose the face of the person who brought him in.
Although the Su family is the largest here, there are also young ladies from two other families here besides the Su family. Could it be the Lin family?
While she was thinking, Su Muqing had already said, "Sister Lan Qin, have someone throw him out. I don't want to see him!"
Lan Qin glanced at her and felt a little headache. She said to Li Hao, "Sir, since Miss Su doesn't want to see you, please leave."
Li Hao frowned and looked at Su Muqing, who had an angry look on her face and disgust in her eyes. Such an expression on her face made him feel a little uncomfortable. He sighed secretly in his heart. Their bodies were the same, but their personalities were very different.
"Since you are here to appreciate paintings, I have paintings to present, why don't you view them?"
Li Hao said.
Lan Qin's eyes flashed with surprise, and she asked, "Do you really have paintings?"
The girls nearby also started whispering, somewhat curious, and at the same time they could see that Li Hao and Su Muqing had a close relationship.
Li Hao flipped his hand, and a painting appeared in the space of heaven and earth. It was the painting of the sacred tree, the origin of space, that he had previously realized when he had realized the way of painting.
At this moment, as the painting scroll appeared in the air above the pavilion, it suddenly seemed to disappear into the world, and waves of the origin of the space divine tree bloomed, as if taking root in the void, and a towering divine tree stood above everyone's head.
It seems very close, yet very far away, majestic and solemn.
"The sacred tree of the origin of space?"
The girl in pink-green clothes exclaimed, her eyes sparkling as she stared at the sacred tree, the origin of space, without blinking.
Su Muqing and Su Wanqing had naturally also been to Origin City, seen the Space Origin Divine Tree, and even meditated under the tree.
But no one expected that the scroll Li Hao took out was actually of this sacred tree, and the painting skills were extremely terrifying, showing the fluctuations of the Tao rhyme of the sacred tree, the origin of space.
Even contemplating this scroll can have a cultivation effect!
"Your painting skills are beyond the ordinary and have reached the level of a fairyland. What a strong painting skill!"
"This painting contains strong fluctuations of the origin of space. One needs to be at least at the fourth level of the origin of space to paint it, and to perfectly integrate it into the painting."
"This is definitely a rare treasure, even comparable to high-level fairy treasures!"
All the women present were from prominent families and had sharp eyes. They all saw the extraordinaryness of the painting.
Su Muqing and Su Wanqing loved painting and had studied it in depth, so they could naturally see the horror of the painting at a glance, and couldn't help but show shock in their eyes.
Obviously, they didn't expect that Li Hao could actually come up with such an extraordinary painting.
"This is almost approaching the true meaning of painting..."
Lan Qin had the highest appreciation of painting, and at this moment he was more shocked than anyone else, with shock filling his eyes.
"Where did you get this painting?"
At this time, the girl in the pale green clothes came back to her senses, and immediately blinked her big watery eyes and asked Li Hao curiously.
Li Hao looked at the other person with a very calm expression, and said, "I drew it myself."
“You drew it.”
The girl in pale green clothes was stunned. Not only her, but Lan Qin, Su Muqing and others were also startled when they heard this, and then looked at Li Hao in surprise.
"impossible!"
Su Muqing refuted almost immediately, angrily saying: "Liar! You only have a soul life of a hundred years, which is not enough for cultivation. How can you have the energy to study this painting? Just to paint to this level, it takes at least a hundred years of hard work!"
After hearing Su Muqing's words, everyone's stunned minds were shaken even more and they were stunned for a moment!
A soul lifespan of just a hundred years?
Most of the women present were in the True Immortal Realm, and they could all feel the pressure of the Immortal Lord Realm from Li Hao. And the seven or eight Immortal Lord Realm masters present could see Li Hao's realm at a glance. After all, ever since Li Hao listened to Master Wang's words, he no longer deliberately concealed his cultivation realm.
Otherwise, the disguise of his panel attributes would be activated, and those who are at a much higher level than him, even those at the Immortal King level, would not be able to see through it, and would definitely suspect that he is carrying a treasure and would want to kill him to steal it.
"A hundred years of soul life, Immortal Lord realm? Is this what Su Muqing just said, or did I hear it wrong?"
"How is it possible? He only has a soul lifespan of 100 years?"
The girls were all shocked, even more shocked than when Li Hao took out the painting.
After all, painting is just a hobby for them, and their real focus is still on cultivation.
Especially in an environment like the Northern Territory, all immortal families, from the head of the family to the servants, can feel the importance of cultivation. Otherwise, if they encounter demons outside, the end will be extremely tragic.
Lan Qin and the girl in pale green clothes were also stunned. They looked at Li Hao in disbelief, and then looked at Su Muqing.
When I saw the anger on his face, I felt my heart pounding, and it felt like what he said was true.
With a soul lifespan of a hundred years and the cultivation level of an Immortal King, there was no doubt that the young man in front of him was an unrivaled genius, even unheard of!
Only such an existence could make the proud True Phoenix of the Su family so angry, yet helpless!
"Mu Qing, does he really only have a soul lifespan of 100 years?"
Although she had a guess, Lan Qin couldn't help but confirm with Su Muqing in a low voice.
When Su Muqing heard his questions and the whispers around her, her face suddenly became extremely ugly. For some reason, seeing Li Hao taking the limelight made her feel more uncomfortable than if she were embarrassed herself.
Seeing that he did not answer, Lan Qin turned her gaze to Su Wanqing, who was more easy to talk to. When she saw Su Wanqing nod slightly in response, it was as if a heavy hammer had hit her heart, and she was shocked. When she looked at the young man again, there was a hint of horror in her eyes.
As far as she knew, even the Lin family's prince had only just entered the realm of true immortality when his soul lived for a hundred years. Despite this, he was already famous throughout the entire Gusu Imperial Star!
Afterwards, the power of his bloodline was revealed in the True Immortal Realm. His cultivation soared into the sky, and he was invincible in the same realm, even in the face of adversity.
Lan Qin regained her composure, and her expression softened as she looked at Li Hao. She said, "Master Haotian, is this painting...really made by you?"
"nature."
Li Hao nodded.
The girl in the pale green dress appeared in front of Li Hao with a swagger, as if she wanted to get closer to take a closer look at Li Hao. Then she grinned, her eyes sincere and serious, and said:
"My name is Jiang Huanhuan, you can call me Huanhuan!"
Li Hao was slightly stunned and said, "Just call me Haotian."
“Huan Huan!”
When Su Muqing saw Jiang Huanhuan's actions, her expression suddenly changed. She almost exploded with anger and said, "He is a liar. You don't know how despicable he is!"
Jiang Huanhuan and Su Muqing were also good friends. Hearing this, Jiang Huanhuan looked at Su Muqing in confusion and said, "Despicable?"
Su Muqing gritted her teeth and wanted to tell him about how Li Hao had forced her into marriage with the marriage certificate and how he had been pestering her. But when the words came to her lips, she felt that these words were too embarrassing, so she could only grit her teeth and say:
"He is a despicable, shameless villain. No matter how talented he is, he will never achieve great things. He has a very low moral character and only wants wealth and fame. He is not worthy of this bloodline and talent at all!"
After hearing Su Muqing's words, everyone looked at each other and then at Li Hao with confusion in their eyes.
"Where do you come from?"
Jiang Huanhuan was full of curiosity.
Su Muqing had a tense face and naturally refused to say that she would be harassed by Li Hao for a hundred years. It was too difficult to say it.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Jiang Huanhuan turned around and looked at Li Hao carefully again, then suddenly smiled and said:
"Is there any misunderstanding between you and Sister Mu Qing? Do you want me to help you explain it?"
Li Hao didn't expect that the girl would be so friendly to him after hearing what Su Muqing said. He shook his head slightly and said, "There is nothing to explain."
Jiang Huanhuan was a little surprised, realizing that there must be something unspeakable between the two of them. She didn't delve into it and brought the topic back to the painting of the origin of space, the sacred tree. She said:
"Did you really draw this yourself?"
"Um."
Li Hao nodded.
Jiang Huanhuan stared at him, then nodded and said with a smile: "I believe you."
After saying that, he jumped back to Lan Qin and Su Muqing like a happy little bird.
When Su Muqing heard what Jiang Huanhuan said, she was so angry that her face turned black. However, Jiang Huanhuan was born in the Jiang family. Although their status in Gusu Imperial Star was not as high as that of the Su family, it was not far behind. One of their ancestors was also an Immortal Emperor, and the previous generation of the Jiang family had many geniuses and had many branches. Although the four little phoenixes of this generation were more stunning among other big families, the heritage left by the previous generation could be regarded as a balance and complement.
“Is this your painting?”
At this moment, an elegant voice was heard.
Everyone in the pavilion was startled and turned around to see a familiar figure approaching.
"Dragon Rhyme Painting Fairy!"
When Lan Qin saw the other person, her eyes suddenly lit up and she walked towards him.
Su Muqing, Su Wanqing and the others also looked over and saw an elegant and cold woman walking slowly towards them, her delicate silk skirt fluttering in the wind, shining brightly, like a fairy in a painting.
When Li Hao saw the person coming, he was a little surprised. It was her?
"The sacred tree of the origin of space..."
The Fairy of Painting Long Yun stared at the painting hanging in the air, and then his eyes slowly fell on Li Hao, "What did you draw?"
Li Hao looked at the two maids beside him and finally realized that he was not wrong. He nodded and said, "Yes."
"His painting skills are truly amazing. They have reached the pinnacle of perfection in the mortal world."
The Painting Fairy Long Yun nodded slightly, commenting on and approving Li Hao's painting skills.
Li Hao was not happy about this comment, it was just the truth.
After all, the eleventh stage of the way of painting has already reached the level of transcendence and entered the path of immortality.
After hearing what the Painting Fairy Long Yun said, everyone was even more amazed at Li Hao's paintings. To be praised by the Painting Fairy Long Yun, his paintings must be absolutely stunning.
Lan Qin stepped forward and said, "Long Yun Huaxian, did you bring Haotian in?"
Long Yun Huaxian nodded slightly and said, "He was outside the sealing formation and said that my paintings were mediocre, so I brought him in to see how his paintings were."
After saying that, he looked at Li Hao indifferently.
After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized and looked at Li Hao with strange expressions. He actually said that Long Yun Huaxian's paintings were mediocre?
I’m afraid he doesn’t know that the paintings on display outside are the early works of the painting fairy Long Yun?
Thinking of this, everyone felt ashamed for Li Hao.
"As expected, he is so bold and reckless. Those paintings are just made by Long Yun Hua Xian for other people who are new to painting to appreciate."
Su Muqing couldn't help but sneer, "Do you really think that you can look down on others just because you have some painting skills? It turns out that your Tao heart is low and you can't gain power!"
Long Yun Huaxian looked at Miss Su with some surprise, but she was speaking for her after all. She showed kindness in her eyes, nodded slightly to Su Muqing, and then said to Li Hao:
"Although you are a great painter, since you are here, how about we each display a painting for everyone to appreciate?"
Li Hao had never really learned painting from anyone before. When he was with the Great Dream Master before, they were just discussing painting, and it couldn't be considered a competition or learning from each other.
Hearing this, he naturally had no reason to refuse.
Just like a swordsman would not refuse an invitation to kendo from another swordsman.
"OK."
Li Hao nodded.
When they heard that the two were going to paint on the spot, everyone's eyes lit up. They didn't expect there would be such a good show to watch.
Lan Qin was pleasantly surprised and immediately waved her hand to evacuate the empty space, saying:
"This pavilion is too small, why don't we go to the lake outside the building to view the exhibition?"
Long Yun Huaxian nodded slightly.
Soon, everyone flew out of the attic and came to the sky above the lake.
"Sister, why does he have to follow you?"
Su Wanqing and Su Muqing came to the sky above the lake together and stood together. Su Wanqing couldn't help but ask curiously in a low voice.
She could sense that the young man did not have any air of arrogance, and everything he did was probably a means to follow her in.
"How would I know? Trying to impress me with such a stupid method is simply ridiculous."
Su Muqing responded with a sneer.
Su Wanqing thought of the hundred-year agreement, nodded, and couldn't help sighing with regret in her heart.
At this time, Long Yun Huaxian and Li Hao both came to the sky above the lake and confronted each other in the open space vacated by everyone.
The competition here and the appearance of Long Yun Huaxian immediately attracted everyone in other pavilions. For a moment, the surroundings were filled with figures.
"Who is that and what is that doing?"
"Competing with the painter Long Yun in painting?"
Most of the people present were women, and they started chattering.
Lan Qin raised his hand and said in a deep voice, "Silence."
A powerful pressure from the peak of the Immortal King realm emanated, instantly quieting the entire place.
The Painting Fairy Long Yun looked at Li Hao calmly. Although she was a little surprised by Li Hao's painting of the sacred tree of the origin of space, she felt that the other party insulting her early paintings was like bullying her young child, which was intolerable. She decided to teach him a lesson.
"I will let you see the realm beyond the painting..."
The Painting Fairy Long Yun spoke slowly, she raised her hand, the fairy pearls on her exquisite silk skirt shone, and the fairy power vibrated out from her body. In an instant, the sky, earth, mountains, rivers, and scenery around her all changed!
With a wave of your hand, the world changes color!
The painting world spreads out from his body, like a realm of Tao.
But this is not the realm of Taoism, but a painting realm constructed purely with immortal power!
Previously, Li Hao was in the Langya Painting Realm when he was with the Great Dream Master, and he was not unfamiliar with this painting realm.
At this moment, as Long Yun Huaxian made her move, the whole audience suddenly burst into exclamations, which could not be covered up even by Lan Qin's immortal power.
Painting scene!
The eyes of all the women present were shining, and the eyes of the few men were full of admiration, and they wanted to kneel down in front of the exquisite silk skirt.
"Painting Realm, this is the realm of painting that transcends the physical body, the true meaning of painting, it is called Painting Realm!"
Su Muqing's eyes fell, and the anger towards Li Hao in her heart was thrown aside. Her eyes were full of admiration and love, as if they were a treasure!
Beside her, Jiang Huanhuan and Su Wanqing also had intoxicated eyes and were filled with emotion. They wondered how many more years of practice they would need to achieve such a level with their painting skills.
But they are busy with cultivation and cannot devote their whole heart to it. I am afraid it will take a thousand years before they can touch it.
"This is the Dragon Lake Wonderland."
The painting fairy Long Yun whispered, and as she finished her words, bursts of low roars and roars suddenly sounded in her painting world, as if rushing out from the ancient mountains. Dragon souls condensed in the painting world, and in the painting world that changed the color of the sky and the earth, dragon shadows soared and coiled everywhere.
The lake beneath everyone's feet, under the rendering of the painting, has turned into a great lake from the ancient wilderness, with surging waves, and a real dragon soaring into the sky, splashing thousands of waves.
"So powerful! I can't even see how those dragon souls came out!"
"That is using immortal power as a brush. When he raises his hand, thousands of dragons fly up. That painting is like a dojo in the realm. It is not a simple painting at all!"
"That's right, the Dao of Painting is also the Dao. When you reach the realm of Long Yun Hua Xian, the realm of painting is also the realm of Dao, or even better than the realm of Dao. You can kill enemies and slay monsters!"
Everyone's face was filled with amazement. That painting was not just for viewing. The dragon souls in it, without their physical forms, were beings with real power.
Accompanied by bursts of dragon roars and whispers, thousands of dragons roared together. This mighty force emanated from the painting, making everyone present feel as if their blood was boiling, trembling, getting goose bumps, and feeling as if their souls were shaking.
Li Hao, standing in front of the Painting Fairy Long Yun, had a relatively calm look in his eyes. The Longhu Painting Realm was quite powerful, but in comparison, he preferred the gorgeous and mysterious Langya Painting Realm of the Great Dream Master, which felt like surprises were unfolding everywhere.
"Although your paintings have reached the pinnacle, they are still constrained by form..."
The Painting Fairy Long Yun whispered, her eyes indifferent and slightly condescending as she looked at Li Hao.
Although the other party was an excellent painter, if there had not been previous friction, she would even discuss painting skills with him and pass on some experience, but since her own paintings were insulted, she had to make him apologize.
Li Hao said nothing, but slowly closed his eyes.
Painting scene...
As he closed his eyes, in an instant, the immortal power in his body surged out, distorted waves appeared in the void, the power of time and space surged, and the power of the Nine Sequences Avenue alternated obscurely.
A vast, sad, and ancient feeling, as if a sigh coming from the distant eternity, rippled out from the young man's body, spreading out like a scroll, the sky and the earth lost their color, and a force of passing time emerged.
