Mirrorsnow Paintings
The Mirrorsnow Paintings are a set of four estate-world paintings containing Emperor Mirrorsnow's sword-art trials and legacy.
History
Discovery of the legacy
Daolord Solesky identifies Ning's painting as the third of four and explains that each painting holds an estate-world. A qualified entrant must enter that world, face its trial, and master the corresponding sword-art. (Chapter 813)
Completing and entering the set
Once Ning reaches the World level, he begins testing the paintings' trials. He later finds another painting among World God Azurekai's possessions, advancing his effort to assemble the full legacy. (Chapters 862 and 894)
Legacy figures in battle
The estate-world can manifest a swordsman connected to the painting's trial. One such figure aids Ning by capturing Daolord Blesswind before returning to the painting. (Chapter 988)
