Lord: Sequence Overlord

Chapter 220 Demon God Manifestation and Promotion Sequence 4: Painter
Chapter 219

Rosen extracted the divinity of the seven abyssal demons using Edward's palette.

Then, using divinity to fuse the seven sinful powers of the seven deadly sins, Ed's palette was transformed into paint.

Then, he completely peeled off the skins of the seven abyssal demons, combined them with his own complete human skin that had grown from the Void Gallery, and through the miracle of the Hunter's Eye, synthesized them to create the most suitable canvas.

With the paints and paper ready, Rosen began to carefully draw the Seven Deadly Sins demons as he understood them.

It's easy to draw a flawless form, but to perfectly capture the spirit and essence of a subject is incredibly difficult.

The essence of the Sequence 0 deities is not an easy task to depict, even for a Sequence 0 artist.

Therefore, Rosen can only depict the surface; the deeper essence can only be achieved with the help of external forces.

With over a thousand points of creative divine power, he could forcibly make up for it. Finally, he would use the Soul Painter to extract the souls and divinity of the seven abyssal demons and seal them in the painting, using the creative divine power to fuse the seven souls into one.

Even so, the depiction of the Seven Deadly Sins demons still looks obviously fake.

Therefore, when integrating the power of creation, Rosen also integrates the seven deadly sins demonic seeds composed of a vast amount of spiritual energy.

Then, by fusing spiritual energy and creating divine power, the painting is given the finishing touch, imbuing it with the power to make the illusion real.

Finally, the painting was sent to the Church of the Lord God, proclaiming to 150 billion believers that it was the seven deadly demons sealed by the great Lord God.

If enough believers believe that the painting truly contains the seven deadly sins, then the painting is indeed sealed away.

Ultimately, through the power of falsehood becoming truth, the seven deadly demons in this painting will truly come to life.

Of course, even if it comes back to life, it can't be completely real, since it involves gods. But it's enough to be infinitely close to reality. Ultimately, it will be no problem to summon a clone of the Seven Deadly Sins Demon God weakened to Sequence 3 through this painting.

Rosen spent several months on this painting, and even shrouded it in a spatial mist to keep it secret.

After the painting was completed, it was immediately sent to the Ancient God Realm, and it took several months for the falsehood to become reality.

Since he used spatial fog to conceal his presence, other painters have also begun to hide the paintings they are creating.

So now it's impossible to easily distinguish who is good and who is bad.

Until this day, Rosen took the initiative to dispel the spatial mist.

The spiritual painting, which took nearly a year to complete, was finally finished yesterday.

[The Demon God Appears: A Miracle Painting]

[Level: Sequence 3]

[Miracle Attribute: Able to summon abyssal demons who wield the power over the demonic sequence and the seven deadly sins]

[Miracle Traits: Demon God's Feast, Unique in Heaven and Earth, Eternal and Undying]

Rosen never imagined that a miraculous painting would eventually be created!
This shows that the creation of this painting itself is an incredible miracle.

Because a normal Sequence 5 could never create a spiritual painting like a Sequence 3, let alone capture the essence of an abyss demon.

Materials worth 300 million top-grade spiritual crystals, plus the miraculous synthesis of the Hunter God's Eye, are only the basic requirements.

Then there's the soul painter, LV7 Nen ability, thousands of points of creative divine power, plus the combination of Nen ability and the finishing touch that brings the falsehood to life, and finally, the divinity amplified to Sequence 3 by the ancient god's sacrificial artifact.

Without any one of these conditions, this manifestation of the demon could not have been created.

Because the conditions for its creation were so demanding, this painting was fortunate enough to become a miracle work.

Rosen removed the demonic manifestation from the easel and took out a prepared frame to mount it.

The frame he used was no ordinary one either; it was a Sequence 3 sculptor's frame that he bought from the Temple of the Gods. It could further enhance the attributes of spiritual paintings, and the value of this frame alone was no less than that of a Sequence 3 extraordinary artifact.

Once the framing was finished, Rosen brought the demon to the tower of light.

A very illusory figure emerged from inside the shimmering tower, carefully examining the manifestation of the demon god before finally shaking its head.

"Anyone below Sequence 3 who can paint better than me?"

Rosen frowned.

"What I value is your talent and painting skills, not your wealth or luck."

Ashir shook his head and said, "However, it is quite remarkable that you were able to paint this picture. You can choose a skill crystal from my collection, or you can repaint it using ordinary materials to showcase your painting skills."

"I choose the skill crystal."

Rosen said without hesitation.

As Ashir waved his hand, images and descriptions of skill crystals appeared in the air.

Rosen selected a Sequence 3 skill crystal. After Ashir took out the skill crystal, Rosen put it away, turned around and left. As he left, he gave Ashir the middle finger with his back turned.

The inheritance belongs to Ashir, and he can leave it to whomever he wants.

But since it was agreed that whoever paints the best will inherit the legacy, and now that he has already created a miraculous painting, how can he come up with such a ridiculous excuse as asking him to use ordinary materials to demonstrate his painting skills?
Indeed, the materials used to manifest the demon were extremely precious, but could this painting have been created simply by having the materials?
If we're really talking about fairness, among the hundreds of painters present, is it fair for a Sequence 4 painter to compete with a Sequence 5 painter for inheritance? Is it fair for a divine descendant to compete with a non-divine descendant? He's not the only painter using precious materials, and he's not the first to step forward and display his work.

Why didn't the painters who presented their works earlier mention that using precious materials was inappropriate?

There is only one truth: from the very beginning, the succession of Ashir already had an owner.

When Ashir saw the middle finger given to him, he was instantly filled with an unprecedented and terrifying murderous intent.

However, he was now merely relying on a remnant of his divinity through the self-portrait clone, and he couldn't even eliminate this arrogant ant. This forced Ashir to suppress his anger, but the next moment he could no longer contain it.

Because after Rosen left, the vast majority of the hundreds of painters stopped painting, packed up their things, and left.

Although they didn't know that the Demon God's Manifestation was a miracle painting, they could at least tell that it was a spiritual painting from Gundam Sequence 3.

Sequence 5 artists can create spiritual paintings that even Sequence 3 artists might not be able to produce. This is unacceptable. If they continue to stay, it will only be a waste of their time. Moreover, they are well aware that Ashir's legacy was never intended to be passed on to them from the beginning.

As for those who stayed behind, they did so with the thought that even if they couldn't get the inheritance, getting the skill crystal would still be good.

Rosen did not leave Shentu City, but instead went to the only Shentu Hotel in the city.

This hotel doesn't even have guest rooms; it only has empty spaces for displaying Void Gallery. Sitting in the Void Gallery is like sitting in a ready-made guest room. All the painters are lords of the divine realm, and they carry their lord castles with them, so they don't need hotel staff to serve them.

After leaving the Void Gallery, Rosen planned to advance to Sequence 4 here.

The laws of painting are omnipresent in Shentu City. Advancing your sequence level here will allow you to better access these laws.

Of course, before Sequence 3, exposure to the rules of painting is not very useful.

After all, if one's spirituality has not transformed into divinity, then trying to grasp divine authority over painting is nothing short of a pipe dream.

However, Rosen was different; he was confident that he would gain divine authority over painting upon this advancement to Sequence 4.

It's not just because his spiritual strength rivals that of Sequence 3, nor just because the bloodline of the ancient gods can transform spirituality into divinity over a long period of time, but also because he possesses the most inclusive and adaptable bloodline of primitive humans.

The moment Rosen finished drawing the demon's appearance, his spiritual power had reached 60 points.

Moreover, it was a perfect score of 60, after all, the spiritual feedback he received from the painting of the demon god's manifestation was more powerful than he could have imagined.

Rosen communicates spiritually with the artist's sequence ancient tree through his own sequence ancient tree.

The ancient tree of the artist sequence, located in an unknown area of ​​the spirit world, instantly drew his spirit to its base. A golden leaf then fell from the tree and merged into the extraordinary essence of his mental canvas and divine brush, propelling his painter sequence to sequence 4.

The two innate skills, Spiritual Attachment and Divine Stroke, automatically advanced to LV6.

However, no new characteristics were born. His seventh sense told him that the super-powerful divine authority characteristics would only emerge when these two skills reached LV7.

Then there are the special skills that don't have skill levels; all of them are strengthened as the sequence level increases.

None of these skills developed new characteristics; Rosen kept their potential locked in at Sequence 3 for a qualitative leap. However, there was one skill Rosen couldn't suppress. The moment he advanced to Sequence 4 Painter, the skill proficiency of Mind Canvas was instantly maxed out, jumping from LV6 to LV7 Perfection, because the Sage of Glory could convert knowledge into proficiency.

Therefore, the Mind Canvas has become the first skill he has mastered to advance to the demigod level.

However, it seems difficult for the Mind Canvas to develop new characteristics; it is estimated that it will take at least a few days for the transformation to be completed.

However, his innate skill of being a painter of Sequence 4 had already been born within his extraordinary source essence.

[The Eraser of Destiny: You can condense your own fortune into an eraser of destiny, and then alter spiritual artwork]

Rosen sensed the skill within the extraordinary source essence and activated his innate skill to begin condensing the Eraser of Destiny.

Consuming one unit of Sequence 9 acquired fortune, a Sequence 9 Destiny Eraser is created.

Rosen took out various spiritual paintings and began to verify the correct way to use the Destiny Eraser.

This is yet another innate skill that has never been born in the painter sequence before. At least he has never heard of it. It is most likely because of the Torch Painter that the innate skills he has been born with are becoming increasingly rare and special.

After several hours of trial and error, Rosen roughly figured out what was going on.

Its most basic function is to erase mistakes and redraw them using the Fate Eraser after drawing them incorrectly.

Moreover, it's not just his own paintings; he can also use the Eraser of Fate to erase parts of other people's paintings and arbitrarily alter them.

In addition, the Destiny Eraser can also erase other people's innate fortune.

Rosen tried drawing a portrait of Kurapika and then rubbing it with the Eraser of Fate, which could directly erase Kurapika's innate luck. Although it was not a permanent eraser, it could instantly reduce Kurapika's innate luck to zero.

Before his innate luck returned, Kurapika experienced a series of misfortunes and setbacks.

Of course, Rosen is only Sequence 4, and he would need to expend twice the effort to erase the luck of Sequence 3.

Sequence 2 consumes four times the amount of resources, sequence 1 consumes eight times the amount of resources, and sequence 0 should consume 16 times the amount of resources, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

This means that, theoretically, accumulating sixteen times the acquired fortune of Sequence 0 would clear the innate fortune of Sequence 0. Of course, Sequence 0 also has acquired fortune, so to truly clear the fortune of Sequence 0, it would probably require a hundred times the acquired fortune of Sequence 0.

Therefore, the ability to threaten Sequence 0 is only theoretical; after all, it is only an innate skill of Sequence 3.

Theoretically, it can work on sequence 0, relying solely on the power of the Miracle Flame.

However, it's impossible to obtain the fortune of a hundred times that of Sequence 0, but it's not impossible to obtain the fortune of several times that of Sequence 1.

Although it is impossible to completely clear the luck of Sequence 1, if Sequence 1 happens to be advancing to Sequence 0, then the sudden disappearance of a portion of its luck is enough to be the last straw that breaks the camel's back, thus directly causing Sequence 1 to fail in its advancement to Sequence 0.

At that point, he would be severely injured at best, and die at worst. He could be said to have mastered a means that could threaten Sequence 1.

Upon closer reflection, Rosen realized that the greatest function of the Eraser of Fate was not to erase the enemy's luck.

The greatest value lies in the ability to modify spiritual paintings.

While it's not always better for a painter to paint as fast as possible, it's generally best not to slow down most of the time.

Sometimes, when inspiration strikes and your hand feels right, the result is the painting that best expresses your feelings.

I'm drawing too slowly; it feels like I might not even finish before it's over.

However, drawing too fast can easily lead to mistakes, and if a drawing is wrong, it is basically ruined.

It's actually quite difficult to balance between fast and slow, but with the Eraser of Fate, you don't have to worry about that anymore.

Rosen was not particularly satisfied with his successful promotion to Sequence 4.

Because he did not grasp the divine power of painting, even though he had tried his best to use his spiritual energy to capture the omnipresent laws of painting, he still could not grasp the divine power of painting. Only now did he truly understand how difficult it was to grasp the divine power of creation.

Rosen casually took out the Void Sketchbook and the Magic Brush, and began to draw using the time acceleration feature of the Time Simplification Drawing.

He was still painting spiritual landscapes. It wasn't that he had forgotten that spiritual paintings were the foundation, but rather that the World Tree needed spiritual landscape paintings. The spiritual landscape paintings he painted, hung on the World Tree, could slowly enhance his control over the world.

Now, thousands of paintings of spiritual realms are hanging on the World Tree, and his world authority is approaching 10%.

A few days later, under the accelerated time-simplification, Rosen's spiritual strength, which had reached 61 points after his advancement, began to completely transform from Sequence 5 to the spiritual strength that should be present in Sequence 4. Similarly, under the accelerated time-simplification, the mental canvas had also completely completed its transformation.

【Mind Canvas LV7: (700/700)】

[Attribute: Painters can project everything they see into their own spirituality and consciousness through their eyes and spiritual perception, and can also paint within the spirituality and consciousness of life.]

[Miracle Trait: Mind Projection - Projects the contents of a mental canvas onto the real and mental planes]

[Miracle Trait: Ash Curtain - The Mind Canvas can be transformed into an Ash Curtain, reflecting the lingering light of civilization's ashes]

[Miracle Trait: Mystic Reflection - The Mind Canvas can replicate a Miracle Trait belonging to a Miracle (Unique in the Unique World)]

[Divine Authority Characteristics: Mystic Psychology - You possess the divine authority over fear and the divine authority over the mind, gaining insight into the human psyche and being able to directly reflect the deepest fears of your target through the canvas of the mind.]

"Mysterious psychology? I'm not a psychologist, am I?"

While Rosen was internally complaining, after carefully understanding the characteristics of this divine authority, his only feeling was that it was actually quite appealing.

While the east is dark, the west is bright; the divine authority over painting has not been grasped, but the divine authority over fear and the mind has been.

Not to mention, mystical psychology can also see through a person's deepest fears.

While what one fears in one's heart may not be a fatal weakness, it is certainly one of them. It means that no matter who you see in the future, you will be able to instantly discover one of their hidden weaknesses, provided that the person's spiritual strength is not too much greater than yours.

With the help of the God-Hunter's Eye, one can see through the inner fears of others even from their own home.

However, Rosen's attempt failed, as he had transformed the Mind Canvas into an Ash Curtain outside the Mysterious Study.

However, the Ash Curtain cannot reflect the fear in others' hearts, so for the time being, this is another ability that can only be used in the Mysterious Study. Disappointed, he decided to cheer up and took out the skill crystal he got from Ashir to begin refining it.

This is a Sequence 3 skill crystal, which normally cannot be refined at this time.

However, the power of the two divine authorities expanded the extraordinary essence within the canvas of his mind, so it was not difficult for him to master this skill.

[Time Predictive Painting: Can you create a predictive painting using the power of time?]

Painters also have the ability to foresee the future, and the ability to predict the future is a skill that every painter tries to master.

There are precognitive paintings that predict time, destiny, cause and effect, dreams, and so on.

The Time Prediction Painting is second only to the Fate Prediction Painting, but mastering the Fate Prediction Painting requires mastering the divine power of fate. To date, only one Sequence 2 painter has this ability, and mastering the divine power of fate is not so simple.

Rosen possesses a seventh sense and time-related skills such as Time Hunter, allowing him to wield the power of time.

Furthermore, since he holds the power over the world, and the core of that power is time and space, a time-predicting painting is most suitable for him. He casually flips open the Void Album and begins to draw his first time-predicting painting.

The drawing process consumes time and energy, and Time Dragon Crystals have a reserve limit of 30,000 years.

The self-portrait clone casually shot and killed some prisoners in the Void Prison, and had already replenished the Time Dragon Crystal.

Rosen foresaw that he was drawing himself, and the magic brush touched the canvas and began to paint.

Throughout the painting process, Rosen had a feeling that he was the one holding the paintbrush, but the one painting the picture was not his present self, but his future self using his hand to paint the picture. This may be the essence of the painting of time prediction.

It took two full hours and 30,000 years of time to complete the painting, which was based on the time prediction technique.

The mist of time that had been shrouding the canvas slowly began to dissipate.

Rosen was already shaken after just one glance. In the painting, he and a woman were training in riding. He was embracing the woman from behind. Judging from her figure and hair, the woman was Annika, but the woman's face was Daisy Best.

Daisy Best, Damon's mother, a Sequence 1 psychologist.

In the painting, Daisy's hand is blurred and reaches backward through her own heart. It's not hard to imagine that she's not taking out her own heart. The hand that's passing through her heart is aimed at his heart behind her back, wanting to take it out when he's least alert.
