So strong!
Xu Xiaoshou had been blown away by the sheer power of Painting Mastery.
Unfortunately, it seemed he had rejoiced too soon.
The moment his focus wavered and his painting slowed slightly, the Evil God's Power and Evil Sin Power on the Evil Sin Bow's arrow swiftly reverted to their original forms.
"Pictorial Reconstruction is, indeed, static by nature."
"But I have the foundation of Textile Mastery's divided-focus manipulation, so I can work on several fronts at once, achieving the effect of Pictorial Reconstruction where imitation Evil God's Power dynamically follows the imitation Evil Sin Bow arrow!"
It was simply too costly.
Looking inward, he found that more than half the spiritual essence within his body had already been drained.
"That was understandable..."
Xu Xiaoshou waved a hand, smashing apart the distant Holy Firmament Hall and Ai Cangsheng, then swept his brush and erased the arrow as well.
Ancestral Source Power stood at an exceedingly high level.
Even using Saint Power as ink to reconstruct the essence of Ancestral Source Power might fall far short; let alone that the power he supplied to Pictorial Reconstruction was the still lower-grade "spiritual essence."
It was only natural that it drained quickly.
That was no problem, because in the time it took to think this through, Xu Xiaoshou's spiritual essence had already recovered by seventy or eighty percent.
He began considering the limitations and malleability of "Pictorial Reconstruction."
"It can alter the form of power, but only by using power of the same level to alter it—for example, using Dragon Ancestor's Power to turn it into Evil God's Power."
"Perhaps if I mastered Devil Ancestor's Power, using Devil Ancestor's Power to alter Evil God's Power would be a closer fit?"
"But if I use spiritual essence..."
Xu Xiaoshou gave it a try
