Chapter 140 Drawing a Spiritual Realm Painting   Chapter 139

 Chapter 139

  Early in the morning of that day, Rosen met another private trainer at the hotel entrance.

  Upon discovering that Rosen was only a Sequence 7, Viscount Aibu's attitude became noticeably more enthusiastic.

  After returning to the hotel, Rosen followed Viscount Ab into his void gallery.

  This was the first time that Rosen entered someone else's void gallery. This was not a moving maze type gallery, but the simplest nesting doll type. The way to expand the void gallery was to put a new layer of void gallery on the outside.

  On the walls on both sides of the gallery, Rosen saw spiritual paintings that embodied the characteristics of spatial paintings.

  All these paintings were of alien life forms. He followed Viscount Ab into a space painting of slimes.

  Looking at this painting from outside, it shows a slime sleeping in a cave.

  The cave was empty, as if there was nothing but slime.

  But if you walk into the space in the painting, you will find that there is a prison where slimes are imprisoned deep in the cave.

  In a normal spatial painting, the space inside the painting looks the same as the surface.

  However, abilities like hiding a picture within a picture, pasting, or drawing can hide part of the true appearance of the space in the painting, making it difficult for people to guard against it, and can also give spiritual paintings greater power.

  Rosen knew how to master the art of drawing, so the mental canvas projected a chair and an easel.

  Then he laid out the human skin drawing paper, took the magic brush disguised as an ordinary extraordinary artifact brush and began to draw the slime in the prison.

  Rosen doesn't know how to draw, but he is very familiar with the basic drawing techniques.

  The drawing technique is actually high-end realistic painting.

  The painting is more delicate than a high-definition photo, and it is impossible to tell the difference when placed next to the real slime.

  For a painter who has basically mastered the self-portrait technique, it will be no difficulty to master the LV1 drawing technique.

  Rosen's hands formed afterimages, and the tip of the pen was even divided into several parts under spiritual control. When drawing the detailed parts, he could use the split tip of the pen to paint at the same time. This was also the result of gradually trying to multi-task after mastering two things at once.

  Rosen quickly completed the spiritual painting, and Viscount Ab shook his head and tore it up.

  He began to take out the prepared extraordinary materials and carefully taught Rosen how to mix the paints by himself.

  The real art of drawing is to perfectly replicate the appearance while also perfectly capturing all the charm of the reference object.

  Spiritual paintings all have charm, and the things painted are vivid and lifelike.

  But this kind of charm is actually the painter's own spirituality, which the painter integrates into the painting.

  The art of painting requires that one not only integrate one's own spirituality, but also further integrate the other person's spirituality and charm.

  However, unless the target is the painter's puppet, how could it possibly cooperate and integrate into his own spirituality?

  Even if the target is very obedient and is not a painter, it is almost impossible to integrate one's own spirituality into spiritual paintings without any conflict with the painter's spirituality.

  At this time, the painter needs to master the art of painting based on spiritual attachment.

  It is necessary to combine one's own spirituality with specially formulated paints to perfectly simulate the target's spirituality.

  Only in this way can the charm that belongs only to the target model be perfectly reproduced in the painting.

  At this time, the horror of this spiritual painting will be revealed.

  Rosen has mastered the Mind Canvas, so he can easily grasp the spirituality of the slime in the cell.

  Then, under the guidance of Viscount Ab, he successfully mixed the appropriate pigments.

  By harmonizing his own spirituality through spiritual attachment, he successfully used paint to paint the spiritual charm of the slime.

  This time, Viscount Aibu nodded with satisfaction, somewhat shocked at Rosen's speed of mastery.

  Rosen now carefully perceived this spiritual painting and clearly felt that it was completely different from previous spiritual paintings.

  Through the slime in the painting, he can truly feel the condition of the slime in the cell.

  He can clearly feel whether his body is feeling comfortable, happy or uncomfortable, whether he is hungry or not, these basic conditions through his paintings, which is equivalent to all-round monitoring of the slime at all times.

  Rosen sensed the extraordinary source of energy and successfully mastered the LV1 drawing technique.

  Viscount Ab sped up the teaching progress and took Rosen to a different model to improve his drawing skills.

  After that, it only took Rosen one month to improve his drawing skills to level 3.

  This is the monstrous learning ability brought about by the mental canvas, profound knowledge and cultural theocracy. I dare not say that his IQ has been raised to the level of a genius, but in terms of learning ability, Rosen is no less than the top geniuses of the human race.

  After Rosen sent Viscount Aib away, he began to offer rewards for capturing a large number of extraordinary lives alive.

  After obtaining these extraordinary lives, he immediately used his drawing skills to perfectly replicate their spirit and then sealed them in a space painting.

  After a few months, he had improved his drawing skills to level 4 at an incredible speed.

  After becoming the Space Trap Maker, this was the second LV4 skill he mastered.

  [Drawing skill LV4: With special pigments, it can draw spiritual paintings that perfectly imitate and replicate the target's charm]

  [Enhanced Features: Painting Prison - Can hide additional painting prison space in the painting space]

  [Enhanced Characteristics: Heart Prison - Can influence the spirituality of the life in the painting through the Heart Prison]

  When his drawing skill was upgraded from LV3 to LV4, Rosen used the heart of a Sequence 4 Mind Eater as a strengthening material.

  He promised to paint a spiritual painting for the person in the future, and only then was he able to successfully trade for this super rare material.

  However, the final enhanced drawing technique did not disappoint Rosen.

  The painted prison is actually the prison hidden in Viscount Ab's painting.

  If you draw a sheep-headed monster, then capture the sheep-headed monster and put it in the painted prison.

  Then the degree of realism of the goat-headed monster drawn by the drawing technique is second only to the painter's self-portrait.

  More importantly, the drawn goat-headed monster can perfectly master the extraordinary abilities and all the memories of the real goat-headed monster.

  Of course, although the painted prison is powerful, the prerequisite is that the target can be captured alive and imprisoned in the painting.

  You also have to make sure the target doesn't starve to death in the prison and that he has basic survival necessities.

  Relatively speaking, the enhanced characteristic heart prison is much more powerful.

  Rosen looked at Kuroro in the frame in front of him, and then looked at Kuroro across from him who was a little uneasy being used as a model.

  He activated the Mind Prison feature and combined it with the Mind Canvas. Whatever Kuroro was thinking about would appear on the Mind Canvas. He could even look through all of Kuroro's memories through the Mind Canvas, and then seal any part of the memory in the Mind Prison.

  He can also use the Mind Canvas in combination with the Mind Prison to manipulate Kuroro's thoughts and consciousness.

  He manipulates Chrollo in the painting to make him think he is a cat.

  Kuroro, who was not far from him, immediately squatted down and licked his hand like a cat.

  This is only the LV4 drawing technique. After mastering more features, the high-level drawing technique can even directly seal the target in the painting, ignore almost all defensive curse targets, or directly cause various damages to the target through the painting.  

  There was once a painter who painted a demigod and then burned the painting.

  As a result, the demigod, who was hundreds of thousands of miles away, was burned to ashes alive by ordinary flames.

  All high-sequence painters are experts at playing with curses.

  Rosen is ready to make persistent efforts and learn the last skill to add the finishing touch.

  However, adding the finishing touch is not a skill that can be mastered by painting at home. Instead, one needs to go to the spiritual world and sense the ubiquitous historical traces deep in the spiritual world. Then, capture these historical traces and integrate them into the spiritual painting like the finishing touch.

  There is only one city in the Dungeon Kingdom, and ordinary people live in the spiritual realm hidden within the royal city.

  In addition to a large number of dungeons, the Dungeon Kingdom also has rich underground mineral resources.

  Temporary mining towns will form in those valuable mineral veins.

  Once the mineral veins dry up, the mining towns will quickly disappear.

  Tiemu Town was once such a mining town.

  However, unlike other mining towns, the people living in Tiemu Town are not miners but farmers.

  Because although there is precious extraordinary material rutile here, the iron content in the ore is very low.

  In the end, there was no choice but for the Dungeon Kingdom to choose to plant a large amount of ironwood.

  Relying on the ironwood's ability to absorb iron elements to grow, the extraordinary metal red iron here is absorbed into the interior of the ironwood.

  Finally, burn the ironwood to obtain the precious extraordinary metal red iron.

  In addition to this special feature, Hongtie Town is also a rare mining town that did not have a good ending.

  The ironwood planted here, which contained red iron, attracted a Sequence 4 iron-eating earth dragon from the underground world. The entire mining town was wiped out by the iron-eating earth dragon. Since there was not much red iron left, continuing to plant ironwood was no longer worth the cost.

  Finally, this place was completely abandoned and eventually forgotten by the world as the cave passage collapsed.

  If Rosen had not consulted official information as a painter, he would have found it difficult to find this forgotten town.

  According to the experience summarized by painters, the best way to perceive the past traces of the object to be painted is to go to the place where those past people and things finally disappeared and were destroyed, because it is easier to perceive the past traces here.

  Rosen did not share the power of the gray rat, but let the gray rat take him underground.

  Although he can also burrow underground due to sharing the pet's ability, he can never be as fast as the gray rat underground.

  Two days later, Rosen was dumbfounded as he looked at the completely buried town of Tiemu.

  He tried to activate the virtual world scan, but the virtual world scan was of little use here.

  Because the soil underground contains tiny bits of red iron, the town's buildings, which are made from local materials, also contain a faint spirituality.

  Therefore, relying on virtual world scanning, basically nothing can be scanned.

  Rosen had to expand the divine territory and release several subterranean demons that he had recruited during this period.

  Then he commanded the crypt demons to dig out the town of Tiemu.

  The Ash Hive and the Demon's Lair, both of these military buildings were transformed into divine buildings by Rosen.

  Ash Nests now produce one Ash Bee per week, just like Slime Nests.

  The time it takes for a demon lair to produce crypt demons has not decreased, but the chance of producing mutants has increased.

  The Crypt Demon itself is very efficient at digging, and as long as the soil and rocks are not stuck to the ground, the Void Scavenger can instantly collect these loose soil and rocks, and even decompose them to extract red iron.

  Rosen was dissatisfied with the slow work, so he simply sent out all the generals and people from the divine territory.

  Several cat-people who had been transferred to the miner sequence finally found their place and played a huge role at this time.

  So it only took a few days to dig out the underground Tiemu town.

  All buildings are constructed using rock and ironwood, so most of them have been well preserved over the past few hundred years.

  Only a part of the building was destroyed, probably by the iron-eating earth dragon.

  Rosen released the God-Hunting Eye and looked down on the entire town with God's vision.

  Then he sketched out a picture on the mental canvas, drawing the entire Tiemu town exactly as it was.

  With the overall sketch, the next step is to detail each building.

  Rosen carefully observed each house inside and out and painted a separate picture for each.

  Since these paintings are not spiritual paintings, there is no need to infuse spirituality when painting them.

  So with his hand speed, he can easily finish an ordinary painting in a few seconds.

  Even those collapsed and damaged buildings were carefully repaired by Rosen like playing with building blocks and then recorded with paintings.

  He spent several hours painting the entire town.

  At this point, Rosen set up a flower stand with a diameter of ten feet and began to paint a spiritual painting of Tiemu Town.

  Through the technique of drawing, Rosen painted the entire town in great detail.

  Even the texture of the ironwood panels on an ordinary wooden house was painted completely realistically.

  It took two months to complete this painting, and finally a Tiemu town appeared in the painting that was exactly the same as the Tiemu town in history.

  Now that the scene is done, it's time to draw the most important people.

  However, buildings can be restored, but it is not so easy to restore people.

  Fortunately, this world not only has painters, but also photographers, and things like cameras that ordinary people can use.

  Rosen took out a group photo he found in the archives, which was a group photo of more than a thousand people in Tiemu Town.

  There are many group photos like this in the human world, and they are precious information left by our predecessors to future generations.

  If a painter wants to paint a spiritual painting of Tiemu Town in the future, the information left by the predecessors can play a huge value.

  If our predecessors didn't even leave any information behind, it would be difficult to find traces of history deep in the spiritual world.

  Even though hundreds of years have passed, this photo still clearly shows everyone's clothing and appearance.

  Through his continuous portrait painting over the years, Rosen's observation of people has reached a very deep level.

  He began to observe carefully which houses in the town the people in the photos lived in.

  Of course it was impossible to tell all of them, but there was a man wearing a hat, and he found the rotten remains of the hat in a box in a house in the town, so by comparing it he could tell where the man lived.

  Once all the possible matches were found, Rosen began adding characters to the town of Ironwood in the painting.

  All those who successfully matched up drew that person in the corresponding room.

  As for the remaining ones that really could not be matched, he painted these people on the streets while they were working on planting ironwood. In short, he painted all of them in the painting without missing a single one. People are much more difficult to draw than buildings. Rosen spent three full months on this painting.
