1055 Words
When Will was about to take a closer look, he only felt pain in his eyes and couldn't see through the mist.
Even Russell knew the painting, and the emperor must know it, too. Why didn't the emperor take away the Painting of Thousands of Mountains and Rivers? Will was confused.
Suddenly, the spiritual power from the painting fluctuated.
Will was no longer the ignorant person he was when he first came to this world. He knew it was telling him what to do next.
Will took a deep breath and forgot all about his worries for the time being. He focused his attention and entered into a nirvana-like state. Teeming with spiritual energy, he began the cultivation, absorbing knowledge and Qi from the painting.
Russel was seeking to hold the image's power, all for himself! He was taking advantage of Will's ignorance!
The spiritual power stormed out from Will's body and the Painting of Thousands of Mountains and Rivers. The two spiritual forces were now the same; their Qi energy has fully synchronized and became one!
However, the process took time. Will only being level 5 of Qi of condensation had to go through a painful process that wasn't easy nor difficult on his body.
All of a sudden, the room went blank. Not a single trace of sound could be heard. The only thing visible was Will and the painting.
Boom!
Time passed, and space trembled slightly at some point. The long scrolls of a dozen meters closed like lightning and emitted a bright light. It went into Will's forehead until it completely submerged into his body. It indicated that the painting had entered Will's body, which meant that they synchronized and became refined.
At this moment, the vast spiritual power and Qi from the painting went directly into Will's body. The space outside his body was shaking, and he attracted endless spiritual power. Almost in an instant, with all the teeming power and Qi flowing through his body, Will had a feeling that he couldn't take this pain anymore.
"What's going on!? What's happening to my body?" Will was surprised.
The so-called cultivation was to absorb the world's Qi into his body, refine it, and transform it into his spiritual power and Qi.
During the cultivation, the more substantial Qi Will could use, the easier the cultivation was. As to whether these powers can be refined and improved on, it depends.
With the Painting of Thousands of Mountains and Rivers, Will could guarantee that his cultivation speed could be two times higher than before. Having such a useful and marvelous item was extremely delightful.
Will, who was already in the cultivation, fell far behind others. So, he was significantly short of time. Before he could relax, he suddenly felt that his body, and even his soul, seemed to be imprisoned.
There was a flash of light in his body. Immediately after, Will saw a figure. It was a woman. She appeared directly in Will's mind and soul!
"Mother?"
"Who are you?"
The cold voice echoed in his mind. The voice with killing intention froze Will's whole body and even his soul instantly. If Will couldn't give a satisfactory answer to her, he might be dead today.
Although Will could cheat others, he couldn't fake his identity from the original Will's mother!
Will took a deep breath and said, "Sorry… I am sorry for your loss!"
She was without a body, and even her soul was imprisoned. Will didn't need to explain what she wanted to know. She was sorrowful. Will didn't know what else to say to comfort her.
This figure should be just a remnant of consciousness, but Will saw that she seemed to cry.
Will was an orphan, unable to understand in detail what was maternal love, but this time, he felt it.
"Sorry!" Will said in a low voice.
A light flashed out from his body and turned into an illusory figure. Then, the shadow stared at Will quietly. Although Will wasn't her son, everything else was him except for the soul.
"What's your name?" She asked.
"Will, my name is also Will. Maybe it is the fate that made me reincarnate into your son Will."
The word 'reincarnate' meant nothing to her at all. After all, her son was dead. The young man she saw was just a continuation of her son's life.
"My poor son!" The woman whispered sadly. Tears appeared in her eyes again. After that moment, she suddenly looked at Will and said, "Now, you have taken over my son's body and replaced his soul. Although my son's identity was a joke, after all, you are still alive, aren't you?"
Will understood what she meant, "I will revenge you and Will! " What he said made the woman unable to restrain her emotions and began to cry once again. Although her son was a loser in the eyes of other people, he showed much respect for her.
"Thank you."
She was right in front of Will at such a close distance that she could even touch Will with her hand. But no matter how hard she had tried, it was impossible to touch her son's face again.
Will suddenly felt sad.
"Mother!" Will couldn't help but say those words. At this moment, Will forgot who he was. He only knew that the woman he saw was his mother.
The woman was trembling, laughing, and crying. This would be the first time they met. They didn't know each other, but they felt the family affection between them!
"Actually, I am delighted!"
"Whether you are my son or not, you allow my son to stay in this world. You're able to avenge his death."
"You have the body of my son, and after you called me mother. In the future, you should still use the same identity to live in this world. I have not been able to protect my son. But I hope you can protect yourself."
"I never figured out the Painting of Thousands of Mountains and Rivers. You can explore it yourself in the future. There is no doubt that it is very powerful and can accompany you for your whole life."
"In the palace, you are not alone. The West Mountains and the Star Tower will listen to your orders; they will be loyal to you. And if you have a chance, go there!"
"Serena is a very good girl. Please be kind to her!"
In just a few minutes, the woman spoke many words at the fastest speed, and then her body became more illusory.
