Everyone had the same thought as Yu Huang.
Estelle turned around and asked Kunlun, “Kunlun, why are you putting the same words and paintings together?”
Kunlun subconsciously said, “To find out if it’s real or not.” What else could he do?
Yu Huang and the others revealed enlightened expressions when they heard this.
“To find out if it’s real or not.” Yu Huang said thoughtfully, “Could it be that the Kunlun Divine Master wants us to find the beautiful woman he drew from these calligraphy paintings?”
Donor nodded and said, “It’s possible.”
“Let’s find which one is different from the others.” Sheng Xiao pulled Yu Huang to the first calligraphy painting. Then, he looked at it carefully.
There were a total of 12 merman paintings in the room, but every calligraphy painting was very good. They looked almost identical. Even Sheng Xiao didn’t notice any difference.
The six of them looked at all the words and paintings, but they really couldn’t find anything different. They couldn’t help but suspect that they were mistaken.
The Kunlun Divine Master’s intention wasn’t for them to find the different one?
“Kunlun, do you think there’s another reason?” Sheng Xiao could only place his hopes on Kunlun.
Kunlun was also very puzzled. He revealed an innocent expression and couldn’t help but complain, “Although I’m the reincarnation of the Kunlun Divine Master, I’m not the Kunlun Divine Master. How would I know what he wants us to do? If it were me, I would definitely want everyone to look for the different one.”
Hearing Kunlun’s words, they realized that they were making things difficult for Kunlun.
Yu Huang stood in front of the first calligraphy painting. She imitated the merman’s standing posture and expression and realized that the merman was gazing towards the direction of the entrance in all the paintings.
This made Yu Huang think of a possibility.
She suddenly said, “Have you ever thought about why in all the calligraphy paintings, Na Ling is staring in the direction of the tomb’s entrance?”
Donor and the others frowned and thought for a moment, but they couldn’t think of an answer.
Kunlun said, “She’s waiting for someone.”
Sheng Xiao and the others widened their eyes.
“Waiting for someone?” Sheng Xiao thought of something. His eyes lit up. “I know. This is a drawing spirit.”
“Drawing spirit? There’s really such a thing?” Beatrice clearly knew about drawing spirits. Seeing the puzzled expressions on Estelle, Donor, and the others’ faces, she said, “There are painters who have divine drawing skills and can create spirits from their drawings. The creation is called a drawing spirit.”
“That’s right.” Sheng Xiao said, “These paintings are all works of the Kunlun Divine Master. There’s no difference between real and fake. Because the Kunlun Divine Master poured all his feelings into the paintings, some words and paintings developed spiritual consciousness.”
“That drawing spirit was born because of the Kunlun Divine Master, so she stared in the direction of the tomb entrance because she was waiting to see the Kunlun Divine Master again.”
At that point, Sheng Xiao looked at Kunlun again and said, “If you want to test which painting has the drawing spirit, the method is very simple. After you leave, it will close its eyes. When you appear, it will open its eyes.”
Kunlun was skeptical. “Really?”
“We’ll know after we try.” Sheng Xiao pulled Yu Huang and the others to the side of the tomb and left Kunlun alone.
Kunlun stared at the painting for a moment. After he noticed that Sheng Xiao was mouthing words to him, he turned around, pushed open the tomb door, and walked out.
After he went out, the paintings didn’t show any abnormal reactions.
Yu Huang lowered her voice and said to Sheng Xiao, “Aren’t you mistaken?”
Sheng Xiao frowned.
Could he really have made a mistake?
At this moment, Donor suddenly grabbed Estelle’s arm and stared at one of the paintings as he said in surprise, “Estelle, Yu Huang, look at the fifth painting!”
Everyone suddenly turned to look at the fifth painting and realized that the woman in the painting, who should have been staring at the entrance of the tomb, had actually closed her eyes.
Senior Na Ling, who had closed her eyes, looked very lonely.
“It’s really a drawing spirit…”
At this moment, Kunlun felt that it was about time and pushed open the jade door to walk in from the outside. Just as the door was about to open, the lonesome woman in the painting suddenly opened her beautiful eyes and looked at the entrance of the tomb with a smile.
When she saw Kunlun, the woman’s smile became even gentler, and her eyes were filled with joy.
In Kunlun’s opinion, these paintings were no different from before he left.
He asked Sheng Xiao and the others, “How is it? Is the result out?”
