I Turn Out to Be a Grand Master - Chapter 116
Chapter 116: Heaven-Shaking Painting, a Million Miles Immortal Mountains Soaring Into the Sky!
The Grand Elder who guarded the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array in the Danxia Holy Land was called Liu Yongshou. His position in the sect was extremely high.
Not only was he the only person in the Danxia Holy Land who was qualified to guard the eye of the formation or communicate with the formation spirit, but his terrifying cultivation in the middle stage of the Tribulation Transcension stage was second to none in the Danxia Holy Land.
After he sat down, the Sect Master and the Elders of the Danxia Holy Land sat down with him.
The Sect Master of the Danxia Holy Land, Lai Xinglan, looked at the white-haired Liu Yongshou in puzzlement.
“Elder Liu, you’ve been guarding the array eye all year round. Why are you…”
Liu Yongshou stroked his long beard and said seriously, “Reporting to the Sect Master, there’s a very important matter that needs to be discussed with you alone.”
When the Sect Master of the Danxia Holy Land, Lai Xinglan, saw that Liu Changxing’s expression was very serious, he called for the people around him to leave.
After that, the two of them entered a secret room in the Danxia Holy Land.
“Elder Liu, can we talk about something important now?”
“Reporting to Sect Master, I’ve discovered some abnormal movements in the formation recently.”
When Lai Xinglan heard Liu Changshou’s words, his expression turned cold, and his back involuntarily straightened.
“Elder Liu, did you discover anything?”
Liu Yongshou immediately reported to the Sect Master of the Danxia Holy Land the abnormal fluctuations of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array and the changes in the appearance of the formation spirit that he had seen earlier.
After Lai Xinglan heard Liu Yongshou’s words, he pondered endlessly.
The abnormal movement of the formation spirit was indeed a major event.
The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array was where the Danxia Holy Land settled down .
It was precisely the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array that relied on the pseudo-immortal formation that the Danxia Holy Land was able to turn misfortune into luck several times and remain prosperous.
The Danxia Holy Land’s Sect Master, Lai Xinglan, asked, “In Elder Liu’s opinion, is the abnormal movement of the great formation good or bad for our sect?”
Liu Changshou replied, “Sect Master, just from the change in the appearance of the formation spirit, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array is stronger than before.”
“However, I seem to feel that the array spirit is hiding something. Logically speaking, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array shouldn’t have changed so much in such a short period of time unless there’s an Immortal of great fortune changing the array formation. However, I didn’t detect any traces of anyone changing the array formation at the center of the array core.”
“This change in the grand array is extremely treacherous and very dangerous. The direction of the next change in the grand array is unknown. It’s not within my control. Once the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array collapses, the spiritual energy within the array will leak out, and Danxia Holy Land will be in danger.”
Lai Xinglan frowned after hearing Liu Yongshou’s words.
“Elder Liu means that someone has tampered with the layout of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array without permission?”
“That’s right. The Convention of Ten Thousand Immortals gathering this time is a mix of fish and dragons. It’s inevitable that there will be evil people mixed in. We can focus on investigating unfamiliar forces.”
“Alright, I’ll immediately arrange for people to investigate.”
…
On the other side, Liu Changgong’s painting had already reached the end stage.
Liu Changgong was completely focused. With a stroke of his brush, the Million Miles Immortal Mountains in the third painting had already been outlined.
The clouds were steaming, and the mountains were towering.
The painting had yet to be completed, but it already made Wang Yuyan, Yu Hongye, Shang Chan, and the other girls exclaim in admiration.
“It’s much better than the first two paintings. It’s like I’ve really seen the Million Miles Immortal Mountains.”
“I feel like I can hear the spirit birds in the painting chirping.”
“The spirit fruits in the paintings look very delicious.”
Liu Changgong was depressed.
The third painting consumed more energy than the first two paintings.
However, he felt that there was less charm in the paintings.
What charm?
Liu Changgong couldn’t help but think hard. He placed the Heaven and Earth Brush on the inkstone.
Then, he looked at the scenery outside the pavilion and looked around for inspiration.
The formation spirit of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array was confronting the repulsive force. As Liu Changgong stopped writing, the force that almost repelled the formation spirit from the formation instantly disappeared.
Although the formation spirit was much more relaxed, she was very dissatisfied.
She felt that as long as the painting was completed, her strength would rise another level. As long as she could hold on for a moment longer against the repulsive force, she would be able to advance and no longer be bound by the great formation.
In the end, Liu Changgong stopped painting.
The formation spirit felt as if a delicious delicacy was being served to her, but just as she was about to eat it, the delicious delicacy was snatched away by someone.
“What’s going on? Why did that Immortal stop painting?”
The formation spirit looked in the direction of Liu Changgong.
Liu Changgong seemed to glance in her direction.
The formation spirit was greatly alarmed.
“Could it be that the immortal has long discovered me? He intentionally created two paintings to help me improve, but the third painting was stopped at the most critical moment. Could it be that he wants to subdue me?”
Just as the formation spirit was feeling bewildered, Liu Changgong glanced in her direction again, and then stared at the formation spirit in the air.
A strange smile also appeared on Liu Changgong’s lips.
To the formation spirit, it was clearly a smile that had been prepared for a long time.
In fact, Liu Changgong was merely observing the clouds in the sky, and just happened to have a burst of inspiration, which was why he smiled complacently.
But it was such a coincidence that the formation spirit misunderstood.
“I can’t hesitate any longer. The Immortal is warning me not to receive his blessings in vain. It seems that I don’t need to pretend to be the formation spirit he painted. He is summoning me.”
The formation spirit was no longer reserved. It directly sped in Liu Changgong’s direction and arrived in front of him in a moment.
However, before she could reveal herself, the Heaven and Earth Brush in Liu Changgong’s hand suddenly trembled.
Then, invisible ripples appeared in the air and swallowed the formation spirit.
Liu Changgong felt the vibration of the Heaven and Earth Brush in his hand and didn’t pay it any attention.
He only muttered a few words in his heart:
‘Why did the brush given by the system suddenly go crazy?’
Sure enough, the cheap ones weren’t good, but the free ones weren’t easy to use.
After he finished spitting, Liu Changgong continued to paint, putting the inspiration he had just captured into the brush.
As long as he added a few low buildings and some clouds, it would be able to bring out the towering mountains.
However, Liu Changgong did not notice that when he was painting, his Heaven and Earth Brush had many mysterious and obscure array runes.
With a wave of his brush, Liu Changgong added many details to the immortal mountain in the painting.
The mountain towered into the clouds, and at the foot of the mountain, there was a huge river that could be vaguely seen. Cranes were crying in the clouds,
the mountain range of the sect that originally looked very ordinary now looked like the immortal mountain that was tens of thousands of feet tall.
The positions between the mountains also looked more natural.
Human Law Earth, Earth Law Heaven, Heaven Law Dao, Dao Law Nature.
The ordinary Xuan paper that Liu Changgong wrote now emitted a seemingly real Dao rhythm, forcing Wang Yuyan and the other girls to retreat.
Clouds immortal rhythm painting.
This was the painting that Liu Changgong was most satisfied with out of the three paintings.
Finally, Liu Changgong habitually wrote the words ‘Liu Changgong’ on the inscription.
After these three words were written, a new formation spirit appeared in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array. The new formation spirit looked like a middle-aged man, and its strength was even stronger than the original child formation spirit.
…
In the secret room, when Lai Xingde and Liu Yongshou were discussing the secrets of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths formation, Liu Changxing’s expression suddenly changed.
The originally kind-looking old man surnamed Liu now had a somewhat sinister look on his face.
“Not good, Sect Master. The grand array is showing signs of collapsing.”
At the same time, a disciple of the Danxia Holy Land also sent a panicked message to Lai Xinglan.
“Reporting to Sect Master, the position of the base of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array has changed, and it has risen by tens of thousands of feet!”
Lai Xinglan frowned as he recalled the strange phenomenon of the formation spirit that Liu Yongshou had mentioned.
“What? Let’s go out and see who it is that dares to cause trouble in the Danxia Holy Land!”
