Yes, in Shen Hao's view, the last part of the pattern that Xia Nu considered as "embellishment" and "exaggeration" of the mural is not redundant, but describes the last period of Feng Bubai's legendary life.
What are you doing?
Chatting with monsters.
There are very few murals in this part, they are very short, and they are in the corner. It seems that they were added at the end. This was probably something that did not happen when the construction of this catacombs began. In other words, the third part happened after the tomb was built.
This part is basically Shen Hao's personal interpretation. It is neither compiled by Xia Nu nor supported by any documentary materials. It's not impossible to say it's nonsense.
However, Shen Hao himself felt that there would not be much difference in his guess.
The image of Feng Bubai in the painting is not as tall and straight as it looks in the previous two parts, and even has an obvious stoop. This shows that Feng Bubai's physical condition at that time was probably very bad, probably due to the serious injuries he suffered after the battle on Wanjuanshu Mountain.
Of course, Feng Bubai's rickety figure is not the point. The point is that Feng Bubai, a rickety figure, encountered a monster in a dark underground.
Yes, it’s a monster!
Because normal living creatures in this world will never look like the one in the picture. Looking at the height ratio, the monster is ten or twenty times bigger than the rickety Feng Bubai, and only one appeared from beginning to end. If the head and the body are also drawn, I'm afraid it won't be able to be drawn, right?
And the most important thing is that the monster has only one eye on its head, a big mouth, and a set of white fangs.
It is true that there are ferocious beasts in this world, but Shen Hao has searched all the articles he could find but could not find such a ferocious beast with only one eye.
The mural does not end here, but continues with a seemingly inexplicable ending. It was this ending that made Xia Nu classify this part of the murals into the categories of "embellishment" and "exaggeration" after sorting it out together.
On the painting, Feng Bubai seemed to have reached some kind of agreement with the monster. He gave the monster a shining golden object, and the monster also gave him something that looked like a stone tablet.
This is not over yet. The next scene is that Feng Bubai, who was originally stooped, suddenly regained his previous erectness, and there was an extra layer of light embellishment on his body, as if his whole body was glowing?
Finally, Feng Bubai, who had regained his straightness, opened a door in the cloud and walked in.
Anyone who sees this kind of scene will think that it means Feng Bubai's death. Like Shen Hao's original world, there are also terms similar to "Elysium" or "Heaven" in this world, but this statement is very empty and does not depict a seemingly unrealistic world like Shen Hao's original world. The real "world after death".
If he only looked at the scene of the Gate in the Cloud at the end, Shen Hao would not think much about it. He would agree with Xia Nu's thoughts and agree that this is an exaggerated depiction of Feng Bubai.
But the few paintings before the appearance of Yunzhong Gate caught Shen Hao's attention: the monster made Shen Hao feel inexplicably familiar.
When Xia Nu showed him the pictures she had compiled, she said he couldn't understand the rest of them, including the monster's big head. When Shen Hao made rubbings before, he used magic tools to do it all at once. He didn't look at each painting carefully, so he didn't know the image of this monster in advance. But when he took one look, his heart skipped a beat.
After tearing off his clothes, the black beast tattoo on his chest was still there. This was Shen Hao's secret. He usually used magic to cover up his arms so that others wouldn't see it, but he remembered it very clearly.
Holding the rubbing of the mural in one hand, Shen Hao looked into the bronze mirror. Although the black beast tattoo and the mural monster were different, Shen Hao felt that they were the same thing, or creature.
For example, just like a Samoyed and a Tibetan Mastiff, they are very different in appearance, but it is also clear at a glance that these two are neither rabbits nor pigs, but both dogs.
"Do you recognize it?"
Shen Hao asked Black Beast Tattoo in his mind at that time, but the other party did not respond at all. But Shen Hao felt that "no response" might mean there was something wrong. Because as his cultivation level increases, the black beast tattoo can already have some simple communication with him in consciousness, such as releasing some emotions for Shen Hao to express his thoughts. But now, faced with this kind of targeted problem, Black Beast Tattoo "said nothing", which is unjustifiable.
Therefore, Shen Hao mentally classified the monster on the mural into the same category as the black beast tattoo. So I naturally paid more attention to it.
Shen Hao has personal experience of how powerful the black beast tattoo is. Moreover, he also guessed that the black beast tattoo was probably in an extremely delicate state because it had lost its entity and could only cling to his body.
But the monster on the mural actually has its own body, and it can obviously communicate and even trade with Feng Bubai.
If the two are really the same thing as Shen Hao thought, then how powerful must the monster on the mural be? And what was it given to Feng Bubai? So much so that after Feng Bubai got the thing, the next scene was to open the Yunzhong Gate and disappear.
Thinking about it like this, a strange idea popped up in Shen Hao's mind: Maybe Feng Bubai didn't die, but had some strange changes because he got the thing the monster gave him, allowing him to open the cloud door. Through the door in the middle of the world, went to another "another world" in the true sense?
Also, what the monster gave Feng Bubai was something like a stone tablet. But what Feng Bu lost to the opponent was a ball of shining golden light.
Golden light?
This had to remind Shen Hao of the black beast tattoo on his chest.
Why did Shen Hao take such a desperate risk and then break in after the Sword Emperor Tomb sealed itself? Isn’t it because of the black beast tattoo on the chest? What I came in for in the first place was not the chance of swordsmanship, but the kind of golden soul energy that could satisfy the greed of the black beast tattoo.
They are all golden, and it is very likely that the mural monster and the black beast tattoo are essentially the same type. Then could the golden soul energy that Shen Hao swallowed before be the same thing as what Feng Bubai gave to the monster?
If it's the same thing, then that golden soul energy should have come from Feng Bubai's hand.
Of course, having said all that, Shen Hao came here again not to explore the life of Feng Bubai, a legendary figure who had disappeared or died. He came here to find his own opportunity. The lowest goal is to get the second sword. Let’s explore here again later. After all, the good things in the Sword Emperor Tomb are definitely not just the Holy Spirit Sword Technique.
