Who Drew the Monkey

The fastest update to Seeking the Dao in the Mortal World!

Feng Bulie was included in the painting world. His divine sense quickly swept over him, and he felt both shock and anger, but also a little comfort.

What is shocking and infuriating is that this is a nearly complete art world, possessing all the basic elements, and even a spirit—not in the sense of consciousness, but rather the spirituality of living beings and a kind of the Unseen Heavenly Dao law. For example, the soil, rivers, and sunlight here all contain basic nutrients, capable of nurturing life.

This spirituality is the foundation of creation and evolution. If it can evolve over hundreds of millions of years, it will become a true realm. This level of realm is already very stable. To break through it is tantamount to shattering the void and traversing the three realms. He, at the early stage of the Qian Yuan realm, is not capable of doing so.

Divine senses are also unable to penetrate this realm, making it impossible to perceive anything outside, much like a person sitting alone in Heaven and Earth Prison.

The comforting thing is that this world of art lacks many functions. For example, it didn't have a powerful ability to attract people before, so you had to rely on sneak attacks and sniping to trap them. And once they were inside, there were no special effects against enemies. The kind of prison-type magical Law Treasure that could seal, fester, burn, or squeeze people into mincemeat don't exist.

This shows that the art world was not initially created for use against enemies, but rather for the creation of a world.

Such a big heart.

Perhaps the owner of this object can control this realm and refine it as a Law Treasure, but this is closely related to the owner's strength. Ju Yunxiu's strength is not enough to refine it.

In other words, although he was locked up inside, he was safe?

Once Feng Bulie calmed down, he stopped being in a hurry and slowly strolled around with his hands behind his back, observing this world.

The art world is not yet perfect; the more closely we observe, the more likely we are to find a way to break through the current impasse.

He looked up at the sight of the sun and moon shining together in the sky, pondered for a moment, and then smiled.

The sun and moon do not move. This world has serious flaws. Even the realism that can be seen with the naked eye has not been completely perfected. It can be seen that this is only a pseudo-Qian Yuan treasure, not a true Qian Yuan Level.

Because the wild soul that evolved into the spirit of this realm is merely stuck at the threshold of breaking through to the Qian Yuan realm, not yet reaching it. This is crucial, as it determines the upper limit of this realm.

If that's the case, this realm might not be as impenetrable as originally imagined. If I simply heal my injuries and return to my peak condition, I have every chance to break through this false Sky Curtain and escape.

Feng Bulie sighed, sat cross-legged, and was about to begin healing his injuries. Suddenly, a monkey's head peeked out from the top of the red rock not far away.

Ghost Face Monkey... a mandrill!

"Squeak!" The mandrill moved with lightning speed and suddenly appeared in Feng Bulie's face, scratching at him without any apparent reason.

"Damn it!" Feng Bulie swayed and was already several feet away. Just as he was about to retaliate, the monkey disappeared again.

What kind of speed is that?

Is this monkey that was just one step away from breaking through the Qian Yuan realm? It even possesses the nature of a living being... This is a monkey with intelligence; not only can it launch sneak attacks, but it can also fly thousands of miles away if it misses its target!

Feng Bulie he was practically fuming. How could he possibly heal his wounds while this monkey was secretly watching him!

In this art world where everything is so serious, why is there such a wickedly humorous monkey?

"This monkey is much smarter than when it faced me. Back then, it would only fight head-on, and it wouldn't even make a sound when I beat it to death, since it would just come back to life in the art world anyway..."

Feng Bulie see outside the painting's boundary, but Qin Yi and the others could clearly see that there was an extra person on the scroll, fighting with a monkey.

Liusu said, "You're bragging again. You were the one who got beaten up more by that monkey back then."

"Nonsense."

"You've been hit by a monkey."

"... Let's change the subject." Qin Yi plopped down on the floor. "I'm exhausted."

I'm absolutely exhausted. In just over ten days, I've used the Zhan Guang Sword twice beyond my limits. I had only just recovered from the previous overexertion when this one completely drained me. It feels like I haven't even used the Demon Slaying Sword, which I originally planned to use regularly, since leaving the Demon City. Once I start using Law Treasure, I have to resort to Azure Light Sword.

Qing Cha was holding and caring for the unconscious Li Qingjun beside her, while Ju Yunxiu was meditating with her eyes closed.

Unlike Qin Yi, who was used to this overdraft mode, Li Qingjun was playing this for the first time, and she was overdrafting her soul power, so she simply couldn't hold on.

Ju Yunxiu was also having a tough time; in fact, Ju Yunxiu was arguably the main force in this battle. While Qin Yi and Li Qingjun used their superior magical artifacts, they simply used them and that was it. Ju Yunxiu, however, had been constantly manipulating the Law Treasure, using seawater to create pressure and disrupt the environment, subtly controlling the scroll to conceal itself, seizing opportunities to pursue, and coordinating with Liusu to engulf and surround it. She was constantly controlling this treasure, which was beyond her own level, and by now she was exhausted.

She should have tried to refine Feng Bulie right now, just like Ye Bieqing tried to refine her back then, but she didn't have the strength to do it and had to rest. Otherwise, she would be lucky to avoid a backlash, let alone refine him.

In that brief exchange, aided by the boundary membrane design, the opponent couldn't even launch a counterattack. It was as if they hadn't even made a move, merely passively defending and taking hits. Such a huge advantage, yet it felt like they had lost... because Feng Bulie's injuries weren't serious; it was they who were out of fighting strength...

The gap between him and Qian Yuan is so vast... Fortunately, they are trapped.

It's good that you're trapped.

If he gets away, it will be even more troublesome; there will be no peace.

Although they are trapped now, it is not actually a solution, because they really Feng Bulie and they still have to guard against him breaking out of the boundary at any time.

"What do we do?" Qin Yi asked Liusu with a bit of a headache. "This is like carrying a time bomb. Who knows how long that monkey can keep bothering him? It's not reliable."

Before he finished speaking, the monkey in the painting disappeared.

He was killed by Feng Bulie using some unknown Law Treasure.

Although he knew perfectly well that this monkey was just a Painting Souls, and that even after being beaten to death by Qin Yi countless times, it could still be reborn and soon be able to harass Feng Bulie again, this also meant that the monkey's effect on Feng Bulie was still limited. Don't expect it to actually harm him; at most, it could only delay his recovery time.

Once this powerful being recovers to his peak strength, this art world might really be unable to contain him.

Liusu looked at the painting and pondered, "I can only race against time. As long as I can refine the pills, once I recover my Qian Yuan Soul Power, this idiot will be no match for me."

"Alchemy..." Qin Yi looked around. "I wonder if there's Pill Furnace here..."

This is a tomb, and we are only at the entrance. Ahead is a straight passage, which appears to lead to a maze.

According to the stall owner, he had thoroughly searched the area, so there was probably no Pill Furnace there.

Without Pill Furnace, it would be almost impossible to refine the pills used by Liusu; this is not a level where you can refine pills with just an earthenware pot.

Liusu said, "That stall owner's claim of finding nothing is definitely far from accurate. This is an independent space that can form a boundary membrane. The tomb owner's strength in life was clearly at the Qian Yuan level, so it's impossible that he would have left behind such a few worthless things for him to find. If I'm not mistaken, that guy only found a fake tomb chamber. If he had gone into the real tomb chamber, he might have died..."

Qin Yi thought it made a lot of sense. Such a powerful sealing ability highlighted the extraordinary strength of the original owner of the tomb. How could he have buried such a few broken things with him? The real tomb should not even be something that the stall owner was capable of cracking.

Even the Black Jade Token left in the fake tomb was just a deception. The skeletons had identification tags on them, so people who didn't know the inside story would think they were the original owner's skeletons, when in fact the real skeletons weren't there at all.

Seeing that Feng Buli was already sitting cross-legged in Feng Bulie on the scroll, Qin Yi could no longer care about resting. He turned around, picked up Li Qingjun, and said, "Let's go explore the tomb first."

In the world of painting, Feng Bulie had just dealt with the monkey and was breathing a sigh of relief when he closed his eyes to heal his wounds.

He had barely closed his eyes when a warning signal suddenly flashed through his mind. He dodged far away again, and when he turned around, the monkey was back...

"Squeak!"

"What kind of 'Zither, Chess, Calligraphy, Painting, and painting' is this? It's even more sinister than demonic arts!" Feng Bulie, "Who drew the monkey? I'll fuck your grandma!"
