Cultivation: I Inherite The Strongest Account In A Sect Simulator

Chapter 169: Deciphering the Landscape Painting

Even Jiang Yiming was stunned by the scene in front of him.

Whether it was when he met a powerful enemy or an opponent that he had never even imagined, he had never lost his composure like this.

After all, whoever met someone who came knocking on their door and that someone had immediately knelt down with a plop, even wanting to call them benefactor, would lose their composure!

“Sect leader! I must kneel to you! If you don’t accept it, I will stay kneeling here!”

“Alright, alright, alright. Please consider it that I’ve accepted your kneel, but you have to at least explain it to me clearly!” Jiang Yiming scratched his head and helped the middle-aged man in front of him up.

“Lingfei! Bring him in first. Him crying in front of my sect is really a little detrimental to the image of the sect!” Jiang Yiming said as he looked around. If the other party was only here to pick a fight, he would have plenty of ways to deal with him. Yet, the other party was making such a scene instead, as if the Lingyun Sect had caused trouble for him.

Gu Lingfei nodded and helped the other party up before bringing him into the sect.

“You seem to have been waiting outside my sect for a few days already, right?” Gu Lingfei looked at the other party with some curiosity. Although the other party looked a little tired, his back was still straight and his body seemed to be surrounded by spiritual energy.

He should also be a cultivator.

Logically speaking, cultivators should be prideful individuals. Why would one be crying bitterly in front of the Lingyun Sect?

“Sigh, if we were to talk about it, it’s because of the Shangguan Family...” Once that person opened his mouth, Jiang Yiming already understood more than half of his situation. This fellow had probably suffered for a long time under the Shangguan Family. It was likely that after he, Jiang Yiming, had directly led his people to heavily injure the Shangguang Family, this person had thus come looking for him to express his gratitude...

However, if it was really just to express his gratitude, wasn’t this lineup a little too... too grand?

Jiang Yiming didn’t have much time to listen to the person in front of him rambling on. He waved his hand impatiently, indicating that if he was just here to express his gratitude, then all this would be enough.

“Good, good, good. Hehe, I know that the sect leader naturally has a lot of things to attend to every day and you don’t have time to listen to my nonsense here. Then I’ll cut to the chase. Since you already know why I’m thanking you, then I can present my thank-you gift.”

Oh? There’s a gift of thanks?

Jiang Yiming was a little interested in this. He had already shown his strength. At the same time, the other party had waited outside his sect for so long and had specifically asked to see him. As such, this gift of thanks shouldn’t be too bad.

Could it be some kind of lost cultivation technique? Or maybe it’s a pill recipe or something like that?

Although there were quite a number of such things in the Lingyun Sect, if this person could bring out something that was more attractive to him, it might be of some use to him.

Following this, the person slowly took out a piece of xuan paper from his pocket.

Jiang Yiming, who was sitting in the chair of the sect leader, frowned and looked at his disciples.

The person passed the xuan paper to Jiang Yiming. After he took it, he started to examine it carefully.

There was a landscape painting on the xuan paper. Jiang Yiming was not even interested in such things in his previous life, let alone in this life.

“Umm... the painting... is not bad?” He looked up at his other disciples in a daze.

“Master, don’t blame me for being too talkative... This work can’t really be considered good.”

Dong Mi and Huang Chaoyu were both born into wealthy families. They may have never eaten pork before, but they had at least seen pigs run before. Under the influence of their families, they had some artistic attainments.

“That’s right, Master. In my opinion, this painting is not even as good as a low-grade pill.”

Impossible. Jiang Yiming frowned. The gift mentioned by the other party should not be just the painting itself!

“You guys leave first. Let me take a look,” Jiang Yiming held the painting between his hands for it to be part of his body, and slowly let his spiritual energy flow through it.

“Hahahaha! As expected of someone who can be the Master of a group of geniuses!” That person laughed.

No, it was not that simple! Unlike those cultivation techniques, if one directly injected spiritual energy into it, it would not have an immediate effect.

Instead, it was as if everything in the painting was moving at this moment, and everything was under his control!

What on Earth was this?!

A completely new image seemed to appear in front of Jiang Yiming’s eyes. However, he could feel that something was hiding in between the mountains and rivers!

What on Earth was this?!

Jiang Yiming closed his eyes tightly and just followed the image in his mind.

“What’s Master doing?”

“Hahahaha! Don’t worry. I’ve been studying this thing for a long time, but I can’t solve it because my spiritual energy isn’t enough. Since your Master can solve it directly, I don’t need to stay here any longer!” The man laughed, cupped his hands, and turned around, ready to leave.

“This thing won’t do any harm to our Master, right?”

“Of course not! You don’t have to worry! If there really is any harm, just look at your Master’s current condition. Wouldn’t you know?”

What he said was right. At this moment, Jiang Yiming didn’t seem to be in any pain at all. There was only the kind of calmness as if he had been completely enlightened.

“Amazing! But, allow me to ask, what exactly is this?” Gu Lingfei was still a little curious.

“This is really not something that can be explained to you in just a few words. Whether it’s the changes in it or its connection with Heaven and Earth, you can only rely on yourself to comprehend it. But you can rest assured that your Master will definitely be able to guess the profoundness of it. Moreover, in your sect, there’s something that I’ve always dreamed of!”

He was talking about the Divine Ziwei Astrology Technique in the Lingyun Sect’s main hall.

“To think that your sect can possess such a treasure! It’s only a matter of time before your Master will be able to decipher the secrets within the painting! Hahahaha! It hasn’t been in vain for me to wait for a whole day!”

“Since you’ve yourself can decipher the profoundness within it, why didn’t you solve it yourself?”

“I have already said that such a matter related to the divine secrets is not something that can be grasped. If you really want to know, you can wait for your Master to tell you!”
