Chapter 543: Bestowing the Soul with One’s Mind!
Pitter-patter!
The rain continued to pour.
At that moment, in the wetland park opposite Jinling Gallery, hundreds of people raised their heads. Their mouths were wide open as they stared at the golden dragon’s shadow in the sky.
The dragon silhouette covered the sky, dragon roars echoed endlessly!
Dragon!
It was not a dragon that existed in myths and legends!
It was a real dragon!
Dragon eyes, whiskers, and scales…
They were all clearly visible!
At that moment, everyone was extremely shocked!
They never expected the dragon in the painting that Ye Chen taught Mengmeng to draw would fly out of the painting.
‘The golden scales are a painting, but it’d become a dragon as soon as it soared into the clouds and wind.’
The phenomenon seemed to have materialized the saying.
This was too shocking!
“Drawing dao into one’s soul, drawing dao into one’s soul!”
The Art Saint, Wu Wenshan, stared fixedly at the giant dragon that was rolling in the sky. His lips trembled uncontrollably, “Bestowing the soul with one’s mind. This is the legitimate drawing dao into one’s soul. This is the legitimate drawing dao into one’s soul!!!”
If Sato’s map of hell painting had given him a huge surprise earlier on, he was left with nothing but shock now!
Compared to Sato Seiichi, this is what one really described as drawing dao into one’s soul!
“H-How is this possible!!!”
The Japanese young man, Art Saint Sato, took two steps back in shock as though he had seen something unbelievable.
Cang Shuxue, Li Yongmin, and the rest rubbed their eyes. Subsequently, they looked as if they had seen a ghost, “T-This was drawn by Mr. Ye? This isn’t an illusion?”
The thin figure was the only person in the entire world who stood proudly with a four or five-year-old girl in his arms. He was like the golden dragon in the sky, looking down on the world in pride.
“Daddy, it’s a dragon. It’s really a dragon!”
Mengmeng hugged Ye Chen’s neck and cheered, “So this is what Xiaohei wants to become? It’s so beautiful. If Xiaohei becomes a dragon in the future, I’ll ride it to look at the stars and the moon!”
“No, I don’t believe it!”
Just as everyone was immersed in shock, a hysterical roar pulled them out of their daze.
Sato Seiichi looked at Ye Chen as if he was triggered, “It’s fake. It has to be fake. I can’t believe that you cheated!”
“A barbarian from the west dares to look down on the Chinese art!”
Ye Chen shook his head lightly as if he was disdainful, “Fine, I’ll open your eyes again. I’ll let you know that Chinese Art is more than this!”
He pointed a finger at the golden dragon in the sky.
The golden dragon roared once again. It suddenly turned into a faint golden light before finally turning into a golden door of light that was thirty meters tall and thirty meters long.
Bloop, bloop, bloop.
The lake that was initially calm began to boil immediately in the next second. Countless fishes jumped out of the water, shaking their heads and wagging their tails. With a series of crackling sounds, they attempted to leap toward the golden door of light.
From afar, there seemed to be a thousand fishes!
However, they were too far away. No matter how hard they tried, they could not touch the golden door of light in the sky. Even so, the fishes continued to try fearlessly, as if they had been caught in a big net.
The scene was extremely spectacular!
“Daddy, there are so many fishes!”
“Fish leaping over the dragon gate, fish leaping over the dragon gate!”
Wu Wenshan lost himself and exclaimed.
Fish leaping over the dragon’s gate!
As Chinese, they were very familiar with how this story came about. It was about how a carp would turn into a dragon after crossing the dragon gate. It was used to imply a person having a successful career and rose in status!
Everyone’s eyes were glued to the scene. Even the painter, Wu Wenshan, and the big shots of the Jinling art world were no exception!
It could be said that they had never seen such a magical scene in their lives.
The source of this phenomenon was merely a painting!
It was a painting painted by a four-year-old girl who did not know how to hold a brush. To them, it looked like a kid’s messy scribbles.
Everyone could not help but blush as they thought to this point.
Especially Wu Wenshan, the so-called master of painting.
In their minds, they could not help but recall that in order to let Zhao Yang from the Zhao family win the first prize, they had gone against their conscience and given the little girl Mengmeng who deserved the first prize, a consolation prize.
Ye Chen wanted an explanation after that!
Wu Wenshan took advantage of his status as the No.1 painter in Jinling to say that he was the one who set the standard. Whoever he said would be the winner, will be the winner.
However, it was this consolation prize winner’s work that had reached a level that none of them could reach.
It was as if a pair of invisible hands were slapping their faces!
The slaps were loud and hard.
“I’m wrong, I’m wrong. I’m completely wrong!”
Wu Wenshan seemed to be smiling, but he also seemed to be mocking himself!
Since Wu Wenshan was behaving like that, let alone the rest of the Japanese Sato Seiichi led. They had shock filled their faces at the moment. They were no longer arrogant and overbearing like before.
The painting that the Chinese father and daughter casually drawn was actually materialized, and it even attracted thousands of fishes!
‘Is this China’s hidden master of art?’
The young Art Saint Sato Seiichi looked defeated.
He became famous at the age of ten and was hailed as the Japanese art prodigy. He then defeated the Japanese Art Saint Ishikawa Ichiro at a young age. It could be said that his journey was full of praises and flowers.
Therefore, he had stepped into China to challenge China’s art expert. After the Art Saint Wu Wenshan admitted defeat, he was disappointed that China’s art was not as good as he thought.
Never had he thought a pair of ordinary father and daughter appeared.
They were not as famous as Wu Wenshan!
However, they crushed his confidence completely!
He could not help but force a smile, “China is really full of talents!”
At this moment, countless gazes were focused on the father and daughter.
In the silent world, the father and daughter were the only ones basking in the rainbow and breeze. Meanwhile, there were still many fish trying to jump through the door of light on the lake.
“Daddy, those fishes are so dumb. They can’t reach that door!
Daddy, please help them!”
Mengmeng’s childish voice echoed through the world.
Ye Chen lifted his eyes to look at the lake. Subsequently, he lifted his hand and waved. The light door in the sky turned into a golden dragon shadow and returned to the drawing paper from before. It turned into a painting again.
No matter what, it was merely a painting!
It was not a real dragon!
Similarly, the dragon gate was just an imagination, not a real dragon gate!
As the door of light faded, peace returned to the surface of the lake. Countless fishes returned to the bottom of the lake with disappointment and fell into hibernation.
A golden carp shook its tail and jumped into the little girl Mengmeng’s hand. It kept leaping and blowing bubbles without any fear.
“Daddy, it’s a carp! It’s not afraid of me!”
The little girl Mengmeng opened her eyes wide and looked at the golden carp in her palms. Her little cheeks were jiggling with joy.
