Nightriver Painting

The Nightriver Painting is a high-grade Immortal-ranked treasure containing a primordial river and later integrated into the Thousandbull Sword.

History

Immortal Juhua's reward

Immortal Juhua receives the painting after overcoming the seventh level of the Wargod Hall. In its original form, it draws an enemy into the depicted Nightriver, weakening the captive while letting the wielder borrow the river's power. (Chapter 288)

Retrofitted by the manor's spirit

The giant yellow bear spends an immense period refining Juhua's treasures. As part of that work, the Nightriver Painting ceases to operate as a separate conventional painting and becomes the formation-diagram of the Thousandbull Sword. (Chapter 289)

The river summoned

When Ning activates the reforged sword's formation-diagram, the Nightriver manifests immediately around the battlefield instead of first requiring an enemy to be drawn into the painting. This change makes the domain faster and more practical in combat. (Chapter 411)

Abilities and properties

• Its original estate-domain contains the primordial Nightriver, which suppresses enemies and strengthens its wielder. (Chapter 288)
• As a formation-diagram, it can instantly manifest the Nightriver around the Thousandbull Sword's wielder. (Chapter 411)
• Its independent form has been subsumed into the sword rather than merely loaned or separately wielded. (Chapters 289 and 411)
