The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO-Chapter 1829 - 1826: Entering the Painted World

Seeing Ling Feng receive the scroll, Cheng Minxue was also very happy: "Brother Feng, quickly open the scroll and have a look, I didn’t get to see enough just now!"

Ling Feng smiled slightly and unfolded the Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains painting. But at this moment, a ray of light shot out from the scroll, directly swallowing Ling Feng. He didn’t even have a chance to resist and disappeared in front of everyone. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"Brother Feng!" Cheng Minxue was taken aback. She was about to rush forward but was stopped by the Head of Cheng Family.

"Father, Brother Feng, he... what on earth is going on!" Cheng Minxue’s eyes were full of anxiety.

The Head of Cheng Family looked serious. He was an expert in the Later Stage of the Firmament Realm, but when he touched the scroll earlier, he hadn’t noticed anything unusual.

"Don’t worry, maybe Ling Feng touched the scroll and triggered a resonance!" said the Head of Cheng Family in a deep voice, "Now, immediately be on alert, and no one is allowed to enter the room. I think Ling Feng shouldn’t be in any danger, so let’s watch and wait for developments!"

"Then why did this happen?" Although she heard the words of the Head of Cheng Family, Cheng Minxue was still a bit worried.

The Head of Cheng Family gave a bitter smile. How could he know? He also had a strong sense of doubt in his heart about what on earth was going on!

At this moment, Ling Feng was bewildered as he looked around.

"Isn’t this the world inside the scroll?" Seeing the familiar scenery around him, Ling Feng was baffled. What was going on? A light shot out from the scroll, and then he entered the world within the painting?

Ling Feng shook his head. He knew he hadn’t fallen into an Illusory Realm because he was very clear-headed now, but why had he been sucked in? So many people touched this scroll, so why was he the only one sucked in?

Ling Feng furrowed his brow and tried to find a way, but found that the surrounding space was integrated, with no way out.

"It seems this world within the painting is more powerful than I imagined!" Ling Feng mused to himself.

Ling Feng was now at the mid-sky realm of cultivation, and this scroll could easily trap him, indicating that the world within the painting had the ability to confine experts at the mid-sky realm. Its potency was not inferior to that of a regular expert of the Azure Sky Realm!

This further proved that the mysterious Painter had strength far beyond Ling Feng’s expectations!

"If I’m here, I might as well stay since you’ve swallowed me in. There must be some secrets!" Ling Feng looked at the mountains in the distance, took a deep breath, and said, "I must see what the Painter wants to do!"

Saying this, Ling Feng composed himself and stepped forward.

The world within this painting seemed no different from the real world—lush grass, clear rivers, lively fish, fragrant flowers, and occasionally a few deer that would pass by and flee in panic when they saw Ling Feng.

Everything here appeared so harmonious, so pleasant, like an ideal world.

Ling Feng slowly walked forward, crossing rivers, over grasslands, across mountains, and through vast forests. Along the way, all he felt was serenity and peace.

There was even a point when Ling Feng wanted to just stay here and not leave, thinking this place was simply too peaceful—a true Mortal Pure Land.

When Ling Feng climbed the fifth peak, he stopped and sighed, with a bit of longing in his eyes.

"As good as it is here, it lacks that human touch!" Ling Feng sighed, "While it’s a place everyone yearns for, it lacks the vibrancy of life, and ultimately cannot become a real world!"

Just as Ling Feng finished speaking, he seemed to hear a crackling sound, followed by a cheerful voice: "Indeed, indeed, lacking the vibrancy of life! The problem that I have pondered for thousands of years was noticed by you in just a few hours, how intriguing!"

Ling Feng abruptly turned around to find a young man with long hair down to his waist standing behind him, looking at him with a beaming smile.

"Senior, are you the Painter?" Ling Feng asked curiously.

The young man blinked and said, "Yes, I am the Painter. This is just a remnant soul of mine, always waiting for the destined person to arrive. Do you have any other questions?"

Ling Feng touched his nose and said, "I just didn’t expect to meet the senior here, but... why did the senior lead me here?"

Unexpectedly, the Painter shook his head: "It was not I who brought you here. It was the Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains that brought you here! Because you are the one chosen by the Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains!"

Ling Feng frowned; he didn’t understand what the Painter meant.

The Painter said lightly, "Simply put, although I created the Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains, the type of person it chooses is its own decision. I am only responsible for assessing the person it chooses to see if they have the qualification to inherit my wealth!"

Ling Feng was taken aback: "The senior’s wealth?"

The Painter blinked and said, "It’s my final painting, the ultimate creation of my life!"

With a buzz, Ling Feng felt as if something exploded in his mind, and his breath became a bit rapid: "Senior, are you saying... you are looking for an heir to inherit your painting?"

The Painter nodded: "Yes, otherwise, why do you think I destroyed all my other paintings and kept only this Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains?"

Ling Feng took a deep breath. A scroll painted with the life of an expert beyond the Pinnacle of the Azure Sky Realm would have unimaginable power. Ling Feng couldn’t even imagine, and now, such a painting might become his own possession. Even though Ling Feng always had firm resolve, he couldn’t help but be distracted.

But Ling Feng quickly composed himself again and looked deeply at the Painter: "Senior, I guess to obtain your painting, there must be a strict test, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t easily hand over your life’s work to just anyone, would you?"

The Painter laughed, nodding: "I didn’t expect you to calm down so quickly. I feel you might indeed be the person I’m looking for. But before that, can you answer a question for me?"

"Please, go ahead, senior!"

"Why do you think I left this Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains?" the Painter asked, squinting slightly.

Ling Feng took a deep breath, looking into the Painter’s eyes: "I think this painting possibly carries the obsessions and hopes in your heart, senior? Perhaps in your heart, this is your ideal Pure Land!"

The smile on the Painter’s face froze, and he gradually put away his smile: "How do you know? How did you perceive it?"
