In the depth of the Dark Abyss, in a place so deep that no sunlight could ever reach since the ancient era, there stood a low

An extremely thin layer of cloud was trapped by a powerful spell, shaped into a perfect square th A cluster of palaces and pavilions stood loftily on top of it Four strangely fashioned pillars poked out of the four corners of the cloud, beautifully carved but sending forth an immensely evil air They stood about one hundredabout one hundred feet in circumference, they looked like four sharp needles from afar

The pillars were constructed with bones from some unknown beasts, which had been meticulously carved and polished into bone bricks that th No patterns were carved on their smooth surface, save only the natural crevices of the bones A vast evil air shrouded the pillars while green flames danced around them On top of each pillar was a blood-red bowl shaped like a lotus flower, fully filled with a blood-like liquid A flaly and leaped several dozen feet up froht to the surroundings, di the place with an eerie feeling and filling one's heart with restlessness

Although the palaces and pavilions were extravagantly luxurious, all the buildings, flower nurseries, gardens, were shrouded in either green or blood-red fiend fla around, yet there wereblack robes, their faces pale as if they earing aquietly at every corner of the palaces and pavilions They looked like puppets who had worn hu evenfrom a closer distance, under this thin layer of cloud, at a place about one hundred round with a darka few miles wide The hole barelyout ceaselessly Every now and then, green fla across the hole, and vaguely, soe and half-translucent and faces sole on red lotus thronesas in their hands, for Palace

And, the hole beneath it led to the Land of Nine Yin Negate Yang

The Patriarch of Miao Ying Palace had established a te For over the last tens of thousands of years, she alone had been hiding in that mysterious and perilous land which no one knew the depth of, borrowing the venoy to craft a ue She had shielded the only entrance to the land with the 'Minor Rakshasa Void Reversing and Heart Slaughtering Formation', a for, and could last for a long time even when attacked by a dozen cultivators whose cultivation base was at par with the Patriarch

In a cha Palace, with a decoration that was luxurious more like a mortal brothel than the residence of a cultivator, Goddess Miao Xin was seen holding a painting brush and drawing on a snohite leather

The leather was stripped frodom, tanned with the snoater melted from a ten thousand years Dark Ice Essence that was blended with eighteen different spirit herbs It was silky s material in the world of cultivators which Goddess Miao Xin had discovered all by herself Only frodom could she obtain this leather that th Perhaps the texture of the leather would be finer if it were froe as this

Next to the leather were placed a set of thirty-six painting brushes, varying in length and thickness They were irls fro the hu Bo Kingdom Each of the brushes was personally crafted by an expert crafts Division, as also a Gold Immortal himself Both the craftsmanship and the quality of the final product were flawless

The paints she used were also the natural colors of the best quality Aht red blood essence extracted froreen and blue bone marrow extracted from aquatic demons, and other natural colors taken from various i tools that was both precious and excellent in quality However, even with Goddess Miao Xin's prestigious status and power in the Miao Ying Palace, it had taken her several thousands of years to coh it was not a difficult task for Miao Ying Palace to find over one hundred flawless, pure and beautiful girls, using their hairs toso many different natural colors was a very tedious task nonetheless

Therefore, she had been very careful each ti that she would waste even just a little bit of the hard to co table, the fully naked Goddess Miao Xin had the finest brush in her hand as she carefully and delicately drew the brow of a lady on the painting Line by line, stroke by stroke, she drew each hair with great care Every stroke had been thoroughly pondered upon, for she scared that she would e portrait which she had been working tirelessly for over a htly less than six feet tall, but she had an enorirth of three feet and two inches in circuh like that of an old hippo Above her big, fat body was an al face, on top of which was a pair of seon her face like two bananas There was a half-foot distance between her ue, she could easily lick the bridge of her nose

Whenever she was absorbed in drawing, she liked to stick out her tongue and lick her lips Therefore, her lips were alith saliva dripping from the corner of her mouth Fortunately, she was followed by two of her most loyal maidservants, who stood next to her and pulled out handkerchiefs fro away the saliva to prevent it froh in such a shape and form, Goddess Miao Xin loved to paint the portrait of a lady with peonies, portrait of a drunk lady with begonias, and some other with a similar theme Anyhow, she had always tried her best to paint the lady in the portrait as perfectly as she could, not allowing even a single flaw

There was one ti Palace had praised her paintings– they had their own sentience, and even souls! If an als, the figure in the portrait could be easily turned into an actual living person
