Powerful sword momentum spread throughout the entire main hall.
However, it was not the Four Thunder sword momentum but the sword momentum in the painting.
The appearance of the sword momentum put an indescribable pressure on the people present.
In the next moment, Daoist Siji withdrew his Dharmic powers and the sword momentum vanished without a trace.
"Do you guys still think that my conjecture is wrong?"
Daoist Siji asked calmly.
It was extremely silent in the main hall, so much that the sound of a pin dropping could be heard.
No one dared to question Daoist Siji anymore.
"Householder Qing Lian's painting skills are truly extraordinary and transcendent. He actually managed to imprint the sword momentum in the painting. I'm in so much awe."
"No. It's not that Householder Qing Lian's painting skills are superb, but rather, the person in the painting is impressive. If not for his powerful sword momentum, how could Householder Qing Lian have managed to imprint the sword momentum in the painting?"
"Yes. The person in this painting is extremely terrifying. He can exude a daunting sword momentum just by standing there. This is truly impressive."
The elders were frightened and panicky. The sword momentum wasn't too terrifying, but they were shocked by the fact that he had the ability to imprint the sword momentum in the painting, which was the intimidating part.
Besides, there were only two possibilities for such an ability.
Firstly, it could be that the artist's skills in painting had already reached a heavenly level.
Secondly, it could be that the person in the painting had already condensed the supreme sword intent in order to allow his sword momentum to be exposed.
However, if it was the first possibility, there would be something wrong with Daoist Siji's conjecture.
If it was the second, there would be no problem with Daoist Siji's guesses at all.
However, Daoist Siji shook his head again and said, "You guys haven't found the key to this yet."
There was nothing except disappointment in Daoist Siji's eyes.
After hearing his words, the elders were completely dumbfounded.
'There are still more details?'
The dozens of elders immediately stared at the painting.
After the time it would take for half an incense stick to burn out, some elders finally understood.
"I get it. I understand it now."
He exclaimed loudly in amazement.
"What did you get?"
"What have you understood?"
"Damn it, Elder Wang. Hurry and tell us if you've understood. Why are you still keeping us in suspense?"
"I hate being kept in suspense the most. Hurry up, I'm getting impatient."
The elders were confused.
They really did not know what details were missing, and now that someone had declared that they understood something, they were naturally anxious.
"There is no spiritual energy in this painting."
Elder Wang said with some agitation while pointing at the scroll.
Everyone in the main hall fell silent in that instant.
Daoist Siji looked somewhat heartened and relieved that someone had finally discovered the details.
"There's no spiritual energy?"
"This! This! This!"
"I get it now. I get it too."
"There is no spiritual energy in the painting. So that means that the creator of this painting isn't a cultivator, nor did he use any spiritual energy to imprint the sword momentum into the painting. In other words, Householder Qing Lian has nothing to do with the painting's ability to display such a powerful sword momentum. This painting is just too impressive."
"So that's how it is. I see. No wonder Sect Leader is so sure that the person in this painting is the commander of inspection. It turns out that's why."
At this moment, everyone was enlightened.
There was no spiritual energy in the painting and hence, they could conclude that the sword momentum was not imprinted with spiritual energy. Instead, it had emanated from the person in the painting and thus formed an imprint.
That also meant that the person in the painting was a peerless Sword Dao powerhouse.
After thinking about what the Daoist Siji said, everyone was completely convinced at this moment.
"Sect Leader, you are so wise."
"No wonder you're the Sect Leader. You managed to make such a deduction based on a few details. '
"Sect Leader, you're really godlike."
They were trying to suck up to him but were also praising him sincerely.
The sword momentum in the painting wasn't very strong, but they were suppressed because Daoist Siji added some Dharmic powers to it.
However, the most terrifying part of the painting was the fact that the sword momentum could be imprinted without spiritual energy.
It was just like telekinesis without Dharmic powers. That just meant that the person's essence soul was extremely terrifying.
Naturally, the crowd was completely convinced.
Seeing that the elders had believed his theory, Daoist Siji did not show any complacency.
Instead, he said solemnly, "There's another important reason why I think he's the inspection commander, and that is he loves nature and enjoys traveling to mountains and enjoy what the mortal world has to offer."
"He often sells some extremely precious things for money, which he squanders freely in the mortal world. In his eyes, the gifts and treasures given to him by the king are worthless. Indeed, he is an expert."
"I bought this painting by chance in the ancient Baiguo City. According to the store owner, the person who sold the painting is extremely similar to the person in this painting."
"That's how I concluded that the Commander is in Qingzhou now."
Daoist Siji's words shocked the crowd further.
"That's indeed so. There are often experts who don't care about fame and fortune. It is said that the Sword Master Tai Xu once took out his flying sword and gifted it to a villager when he was traveling in the mountains, just to get a fruit in exchange."
"Yes, yes. In our eyes, these are rare and precious treasures, but in the eyes of such a peerless expert, it's just a bunch of scrap metals. He's at such a high realm."
"Sect Leader, since we already know this secret, what should we do next? Do we need to deliberately suck up to him?"
The elders nodded profusely, completely convinced by Daoist Siji's words because there were many of such rumors.
However, some elders were curious about what to do next.
"No! we definitely can't try to deliberately suck up to him. We also have to keep the news a secret and never take the initiative to curry favor with this person. He's an expert who's sick of fame and fortune, and most of all, he hates those who approach him with hidden agendas."
"We have to let nature take its course and not offend him. We shouldn't deliberately try to curry favor either. However, if we find him, we can get the disciples of the sect to ask him for some knowledge of the Sword Dao."
"You have to be studious and ask questions all the time. Only then can you leave a good impression. Regardless of the outcome, we should just strive not to let him have a bad impression of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship Sect."
Daoist Siji said seriously and admonished them to refrain from deliberately sucking up to the expert.
"Yes, yes, Sect Leader. You're right."
"Yes, an expert like him hates being praised the most, especially by those with impure thoughts. On the contrary, if you take the initiative to ask about the knowledge in the Sword Dao, he might impart a few moves to you."
"Yeah, such an expert must be lonely and aloof with a calm temper. He doesn't care about fame, fortune, or luxury. All he wants is probably to exist for the Sword Dao."
There was reverence in the eyes of the elders in the main hall.
Daoist Siji couldn't help but nod with some admiration in his eyes. He really hoped that he would one day be able to meet a true Sword Dao expert.
At the same time, in the Qingyun Dao Sect, Su Changyu quietly practiced his sword moves.
Half an incense stick was burned.
Su Changyu withdrew his sword, slowly exhaled, and then looked at Chen Lingrou who was beside him.
"Junior Sister, do you think this set of sword moves looks good?"
"Yes, it does."
Chen Lingrou smiled as she spoke, revealing her adorable pointed teeth.
At that moment, Su Changyu turned around to have his back face her, with a smile that had not appeared on his face for a long time.
On the other hand, Xu Luochen went to the rear cliff smilingly with a few books.
