Chapter 342 The Light That Rips Through the Darkness
ng Chuan held the brush in his hand and couldn’t help but stop.
In the past few years, ng Chuan had experienced too many unforgettable events.
Rustle
ng Chuan gently lowered his brush and began painting a handso man carefully. The man had a fla mark between his eyebrows. He had an extraordinary bearing and a piercing gaze. It was Marquis Heavenstar.
Marquis Heavenstar was a famous sharpshooter. There were very few sharpshooters among powerful Godfiends. Marquis Heavenstar was ranked amongst the top globally. He was Liu Qiyue’s master. ng Chuan had seen Marquis Heavenstar many tis and was impressed by his bearing. However, more than five years ago, Marquis Heavenstar was killed in battle. He was one of the 12 Archean Mountain Marquis Godfiends that had died that year. It was very difficult to express Marquis Heavenstar’s bearing and temperant in a painting. ng Chuan painted very seriously and took more than four hours to finish.
ng Chuan continued his daily underground reconnaissance and daily saber art cultivation. He only spent about six hours painting each day.
After painting Marquis Heavenstar, ng Chuan painted another Marquis GodfiendMarquis Gong Xu.
Marquis Gong Xu was also a Marquis Godfiend that ca from Wu State. He was tall and muscular, a very dignified Godfiend. Back then, his father, ng Dajiang, was accused of colluding with the Skydemon Sect and was imprisoned in Wu State’s dungeons. Marquis Gong Xu had been in charge of guarding Wu State Capital. More than a year ago, when Marquis Gong Xu was defending a region, he released nurous Quintessential Essence threads to deal with a large number of demon monarchs when a fourth Firmant demon monarch team ambushed him. Although Marquis Gong Xu had killed a fourth Firmant demon monarch, he still died in battle.
ng Chuan hadn’t interacted with Marquis Gong Xu much. He painted the scene of Marquis Gong Xu righteously stopping him from leaving with his father. As he had personally experienced it, he had a deep impression of the scene. The scene he painted was naturally more true to life.
Although the person in the painting was real, he no longer existed in reality. ng Chuan’s heart ached.
Xue Feng was the third person that ng Chuan painted.
Xue Feng’s talent was imnse. He had already taken one step towards the Seamless realm. His future was limitless. If he had fully developed his strength, he would’ve probably been another King Calm Sea and King True Martial. His achievents and strength might’ve even gone further beyond theirs. However, he was still killed by a demon sage, Yellow Oscillate. ng Chuan admired Xue Feng’s character and pitied his early demise.
When he was young, ng Chuan had heard his grandaunt ntion how talented King Calm Sea’s fifth son was. He had reached the Unity realm at the age of ten, comprehended Force at the age of 13, and beca a Godfiend at the age of 15. When he entered Archean Mountain, Xue Feng was also the most dazzling disciple. Even after leaving the mountain, ng Chuan’s cultivation speed was inferior to that of Xue Feng. When Xue Feng was in the World Gap, he had reached the Dharma Domain realm while ng Chuan only reached the peak of the Realm of Dao. Of course, he was five years older than him.
ng Chuan saw how much he had sacrificed for Yan Jin.
Xue Feng. ng Chuan painted the last scene he saw of Xue Feng-heavily injured, Xue Feng faced Demon Sage Yellow Oscillate valiantly. He wasn’t afraid; he emanated pure calmness. As a guardian Godfiend, he had long been prepared to die in battle.
Every day, ng Chuan painted Marquis Godfiends. He was very familiar with so of them, while so were Marquis Godfiends he hadn’t interacted much with. He even painted a few Marquis Godfiends that he had only heard of; he had only seen their figures on Blood Red Cliff.
Those that he hadn’t seen with his own eyes, he could only replicate the scenes on Red Blood Cliff-scenes of them leaving the mountain in high spirits. ng Chuan painted a total of 18 Marquis Godfiends. He also drew so Patroller Godfiends. Many Patrollers were killed in action in recent years. ng Chuan had seen so of them with his own eyes. He was even very familiar with so of them. Therefore, he only drew a few simple scenes.
ng Chuan finished this painting after 21 days.
Late at night, ng Chuan looked at the painting
The 18 Marquis Godfiends were rather eye-catching. Xue Feng, Marquis Heavenstar, and Marquis Gong Xu were in the middle of the painting. Behind the 18 Marquis Godfiends were 51 Patroller Godfiends. The background Godfiends beca more and more blurry as one looked further behind the Marquis Godfiends. In fact, a lot of Godfiends could be seen in the faint shadows.
This painting was of a group of Godfiends. It was as though they remained alive in front of him.
ng Chuan picked up his brush and wrote a few words on the rightmost side of the painting-Rember Them.
He wrote another passage
“It has been five years and seven months since greater demon monarchs entered the human world from Wide Imperial Pass. Archean Mountain alone has lost 18 Marquis Godfiends and 511 Patroller Godfiends. The war is getting more and more tragic; casualties continue to rise. Painted by ng Chuan during a December winter.”
ng Chuan put away his brush and looked at the painting silently. He wanted to vent the intense emotions suppressed in his heart. He also felt that these people should not be forgotten, which was his primary motivation for painting them.
If we win the war, I hope future generations will know of this group of heroes that risked their lives for humanity. They should be rembered forever.
After putting down his brush, ng Chuan walked out of the study. There was snow on the ground. It was extrely cold mid-winter. ng Chuan didn’t pay much attention to it. Although he had completed this painting, he knew that people might not rember these heroes thousands of years from the present era, even if they won the war. Perhaps only those who studied history could find the nas of many Godfiends by flipping through old papers.
Junior Brother Xue and the others probably don’t care if they are forgotten. They risked their lives solely for the sake of us humans winning this war.
ng Chuan sensed that his Essence Soul’s spiritual glow was gradually converging. In the past half month, he had sought answers from his inner self, causing his Essence Soul to transform. However, even though it had improved greatly, it remained a fourth-level Essence Soul. One of the requirents to beco a Creation Supremacy was a fifth-level Essence Soul. It was extrely difficult to attain.
It’s been seven years since I obtained a fourth-level Essence Soul. These seven years have been especially tragic. My Essence Soul has also improved greatly. Its quality has improved by several-fold, but it still hasn’t achieved a qualitative transformation. As long as I keep improving, I won’t be far from breaking through.
ng Chuan wasn’t discouraged at all. He kept improving, so he was getting closer and closer to attaining a fifth-level Essence Soul.
ng Chuan looked up at the night sky as he stood in the courtyard. When can we tear through this long night? Stuck in this war, ng Chuan couldn’t see any hope of victory. When will victory co?
He knew that they were enduring tornt and constantly fighting, but what lay ahead remained pitch-black. More and more World Entrances appeared. More and more demon monarchs entered the human world, becoming stronger and stronger. A large number of demon sages and Imperial Lords were eyeing this world covetously.
Clang.
ng Chuan unsheathed Demon Slayer and continued practicing his saber art. He slashed out again and again. He cultivated the Infinite Saber; it was the saber art that he invested most of his energy into.
Every strike was focused and pursued extre speed.
Quick! Faster. Break through all obstructions.
ng Chuan executed his saber art with all his might as though he wanted to split the thick darkness apart! He hoped to see a sliver of hope after cleaving through the thick darkness!
Whoosh.
ng Chuan’s saber art suddenly increased in speed, far exceeding the usual speed. It instantly transford into a beam of light-a beam that tore through the darkness!
