I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory

Chapter 268.1



Chapter 268.1

Its greatly related! Because above these three realms, there is a fourth realm!

The room exploded with shock when Lin Beifan made this statement.

Theres another realm above these three?

Master Painter is already at the third realm, could there be someone even stronger?

What kind of realm could it possibly be?

In an instant, everyones gaze turned in that direction, even the Master Painter glanced over.

This fourth realm, I call it understanding the mountain is not a mountain, the water is not water' Lin Beifan said with a smile.

Once again, everyone furrowed their brows, completely unable to comprehend his words.

The Master Painter bowed and said, Your Majesty, please elaborate and enlighten us all!

Since Ive brought it up, naturally I will explain!

Lin Beifan nodded and said, Lets start with the previous three realms! Before, we talked about three realms: seeing mountains as mountains, seeing waters as waters; seeing mountains not as mountains, seeing waters not as waters; and seeing mountains still as mountains, seeing water still as water Has anyone noticed a huge commonality among these three realms?

What commonality? Everyone pondered with furrowed brows.

With a snap, Lin Beifan opened the paper fan in his hand and said with a smile, Their biggest commonality is that they are all from the human perspective! Whether looking at mountains or waters, whatever is seen within them, its all through human eyes! What you see is naturally what appears! But is what we see always correct? Is what we see always the truest form of nature?

His philosophical words sparked deep thought among everyone.

But if what we see isnt necessarily correct, then what is? If what we see isnt real, then what is? Yaoyao asked, puzzled, voicing everyones doubts.

Lin Beifan shook his head: Its hard to say. Theres no absolute, no absolute truth! You must understand, we are just one part of the myriad things of the universe! Besides us, there are flowers, trees, birds, beasts, insects, and fish, etc. What they see may not be the same as what we see! What they like and what we like may not be the same!

For example, the same pile of sh*t, when we humans see it, we think its filthy and detestable! But for maggots, it is a delicacy second to none, the source of their life!

Everyone nodded thoughtfully.

Although the analogy was a bit crude, it made the principle clear.

So, the so-called understanding the mountain is not a mountain, the water is not water means looking at it from the perspective of birds, beasts, insects, and fish! What we see as mountains and waters may not be the same to them!

We may find mountains and waters beautiful, but they might find them ugly! Sometimes what we think is ugly, in their eyes, might be the most beautiful scenery in the world!

And this painting of mine

Lin Beifan confidently held up his abstract painting: Its actually not painted for you to see but for the insects! What humans and insects see is different, you may find it extremely ugly and abstract, but in their eyes, this might be a peerless treasure that money cant buy!

Really is that the case? Yaoyao was uncertain.

She felt like he was spouting nonsense but couldnt find any evidence to refute it.

Of course! Lin Beifan said confidently.

Just then, a buzzing sound came from somewhere.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a dozen bees flying in formation, hovering in front of the abstract painting, unwilling to leave.

This scene shocked everyone present.

This this abstract painting actually attracted bees?

Could it be that in the eyes of the bees, this painting is really a peerless treasure?

Is the fourth realm real?

At this moment, everyones view of Lin Beifan changed significantly!

They had thought he was just talking nonsense, but seeing the astonishing scene before them, they couldnt help but somehow believe him.

Even the Master Painter looked at Lin Beifan with a hint of respect and sighed, One is never too old to learn! I thought I had reached the end of the path in painting, but it turns out theres always someone better!

Your Majestys this this abstract painting has shown me another possibility and a different vision in painting! I have learned a lot, thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty!

With that, he bowed deeply with his hands clasped together.

Lin Beifan humbly replied, You flatter me, Master. The honor is mine!

But just then, the Master Painter furrowed his brow: Whats that smell so fragrant?

He sniffed vigorously and realized that the fragrance was actually coming from the abstract painting.

He reached out a finger, smeared it across the painting, and smelled it, saying expressionlessly, Your Majesty, did you add honey to the ink?

Of course. How else would the painting attract bees? Lin Beifan declared confidently.

Everyone:

Ha! I originally thought he relied on his painting to attract bees, but it turned out to be the honey!

Listening to his nonsense spoken so seriously, I almost believed him!

Such a deceiver, he really does harm to others!

Everyone glared at Lin Beifan.

Remembering how they had been fooled just moments ago, they felt extremely embarrassed.

Lin Beifan casually stepped back, then acting as if nothing had happened.

Just messing around with you guys, what can you do about it?

You think you can do something about it? Come bite me!
