Throne of Radiance

It was two o'clock in the afternoon on June 6 when Joey received the message.

The noise he made in the capital of Roland the night before really caught the attention of the whole world, and forced different countries that had gone their own way to sit together to exchange information and discuss how to resolve the extraordinary incident that occurred suddenly in the capital of Roland.

Less than 19 hours have passed since the incident happened until Chandler came forward to spread the word on behalf of the countries and express their willingness to cooperate.

And the first time he saw the content conveyed by Chandler, even without the "internal response" of Adams for the time being, the white meaning in Joey's vest could guess what happened to those people.

"Oh, are you finally willing to sit together and review a pair of information? Sure enough, only by creating a common crisis can those who fight among themselves choose to unite. This is human beings." Looking at the words sent by the other party, think about him, cooperate A win-win sentence, the mixed-race young man with a classic and beautiful silhouette lowered his head slightly, and his long hair covered the smile on his lips, "Although the method is simple and rough, there is no way, there is not much time for you to Intrigue and infighting with each other."

He tapped the phone screen lightly, and conveyed the sentence he had prepared to the person waiting on the other side of the screen: [I agree. ]

After a while of knocking and poking, confirming that all the information that should be conveyed has been conveyed to the other party, Joey returned his attention to his business——

At this time, he was sitting in the center of the Rubik's Cube transformed by the Death Gallery, which he named as the collection room of the Artists Association. The walls in front of him and behind him were covered with handed down scrolls.

He closed his eyes, and his consciousness entered the spiritual world woven by himself through the illusory and invisible network of thinking, and saw the illusory Rubik's Cube space on the other side that was larger than the reality, monitoring the progress of countless people at the very center of the Rubik's Cube. Adams, and the candidates who are immersed in the trial in the different trial spaces cut by each square of the Rubik's Cube.

The final step of the plan has been completed, and now, all that is needed is to wait quietly for the first batch of seeds to emerge from the trials.

It didn't take long to wait, just 5 hours later, 24 hours after the activation of the Art Paradise trial space, the Rubik's Cube covering the central area of ​​Roland's capital disappeared, and the people trapped in the Rubik's Cube reopened in a daze. Eye.

They will realize that a new storm is about to sweep the world, and they are the center of the storm eye.

The person who wrote the script behind the scenes smiled:

"It's time to spread the brilliance of art to the world."

As soon as Joey reached cooperation with other countries, the officials of various countries couldn't wait to release the news to appease the panicked people. Regarding the origin of Joey's identity, the officials did not mean to hide it, so everyone knew that the casting spirit master was once His extraordinary profession, and the existence of the last spirit casting master.

And what happened in the Roland Kingdom was exactly what this powerful psychic master did to screen out the younger generation with the talent of a psychic master. Because the psychic master had been sleeping in isolation for many years and didn't understand the present world, he accidentally made a fuss. There was such a big movement.But after the incident, through the active efforts of the officials of various countries, the other party has been contacted to resolve the misunderstanding.

Not only that, this powerful caster even gained friendship from various countries. They reached a cooperation. Joey not only won the title of Lord of Honor from the Kingdom of Roland, but also won a piece of land in the capital to rebuild the Artists Association.

In exchange, Joy was honored as an honorary professor at several art academies in Roland Kingdom.From now on, any country in the world who is interested in the caster system—according to Joey, anyone who is interested in art can go to the Kingdom of Roland to study, and will have the opportunity to get advice from Joey , stepping into the path of the spirit casting master.The best of them will even receive invitations from the Artists' Association to become members of this extraordinary organization that has been recreated.

At the same time, other countries other than the Kingdom of Roland can also send people to the Kingdom of Roland to study with Joey. After completing their studies, they can return to their own country to spread art knowledge at any time.

——Joy does not mind imparting his knowledge to more people, on the contrary, he is very happy to see the spread of art.

In the atmosphere of your love and my willingness, the cooperation was very happy. When the matter was published on the Internet through the official announcements of various countries, as expected, the whole world was once again stunned by this shock.

However, compared to the bewilderment and panic of the previous day, everyone's emotions are undoubtedly positive this time.

The changes brought about by the spread of martial arts are both good and bad. With the emergence of a new system, what kind of changes will it bring to the world?In this regard, the whole world is full of curiosity and expectation.

Even though the people trapped in Roland King's Capital hadn't appeared when the news spread, everyone on the Internet was no longer worried about it.

Didn't the officials say it all, it's just that there are no dangerous trials, and those who successfully pass the screening may become spirit-casting masters and embark on the path of extraordinaryness.

[Spirit casting master, it sounds very powerful when you hear it.Before, I foolishly worried about the people who were trapped in the capital of Roland, and felt that they were too unlucky.I didn't expect, ah, I didn't expect that the clown was actually me.We don't need to worry about this, it's unlucky, it's just bad luck! ]

[Suddenly I thought of the missing people who got lost in the mist when the sword world returned. At that time, I also really worried about them, but now they are all martial arts practitioners.The sense of sight is really strong, I should have thought of it a long time ago, do all the powerful supernatural beings like to play this game when they return to screen inheritance? ]

[This is different.Someone died in the sword world that time, and it wasn't the sword master Hanguang who took the initiative to screen out extraordinary talents. Everything was purely by accident. Although those who survived and obtained the inheritance were lucky, they also took risks.And can't we all learn martial arts now?At most, it is the difference between private tutoring and large class teaching. ]

[This analogy is 6.But that makes me even more sour.This time, it is a no-risk screening test for spirit casting masters. Once passed, not only can they get the inheritance of a powerful spirit casting master, but they may also be directly included in the rebuilding artist association.It is said to be a reconstruction, but isn't the Artists Association now equivalent to starting from scratch?Aren't the first batch of people taken in the same as the elders?I already have lemons. ]

[You and me under the lemon tree.I found the live video of the last quest show again, and the strength displayed by Sir Joey is real, powerful and weird, and it really gets more sour the more I watch it.Are all casting spirit masters so strong, handsome and mysterious?I don't know how it compares to martial arts practitioners in frontal battles, but in terms of weirdness and unpredictableness, it feels like a spirit casting master beats a martial artist.Is it too late to start studying art at an art school? ]

[The art students have already jumped up from their chairs excitedly. I don’t know when the trial in the Roland Kingdom will end, and when Sir Joey will start instructing the students. I will apply to study abroad in the Roland Kingdom now.To be honest, I was too tired to practice martial arts, I had no interest or talent, and I gave up completely after less than a week of practice. As a result, I was hanged and beaten by my buddy who only had muscles, and that guy actually had the nerve to laugh at me.Spirit casting master is the profession tailor-made for me!Heh heh heh heh, the opportunity to stand up has finally come, just think about standing in front of that guy in the future, using mysterious and weird spiritual power to manipulate him to obediently call me daddy, I'm already so excited that my brain climaxes! ]

[Liberal arts students are also very excited now. According to the official description of the caster system from Sir Joey, apart from the artistic fields such as music and painting, written works are also the carrier of the caster's strength. The caster often needs Only with excellent imagination and full of emotion can we contain spirituality in our works, isn't this what we are good at? ]

[Not to mention written works, isn’t that clearly stated in the description?Even food can be used as a carrier.Just treat cooking as an art, mobilize spirituality and emotion, and reconcile this into every aspect of cooking... So is the glowing golden rice going to become real? ]

[Damn it.With the spread of martial arts, sports students stood up, the cast spirit master system appeared, liberal arts students, art students, and New Oriental chefs all stood up, so when will science students stand up?Is it still too late for me to change my major? ]

[Maybe one day there will be an extraordinary route suitable for science.Although it feels strange that science and supernatural are mixed together. ]

[hhhhThe extraordinary power related to science, the first reaction is telekinesis, vector manipulation... I always feel that it is extremely difficult to get started.If you really have supernatural abilities related to science, at least a doctorate in mathematics and physics per capita can get you started, right?Sad, allow sad in advance. ]

[It's crooked, it's crooked.Am I the only one who is curious about what the so-called Trial of the Spirit Casting Master is about?I really want King Roland to take a look. I don’t know when those people will be able to pass. If there are more soul casting masters who will also pass the test in the future, can they ask them about their experience in advance? ]

[Jealousy makes people beyond recognition. When I think of some people coming out and jumping into the dragon's gate immediately, I am so jealous that I am torn apart. ]

[Is this the last life that saved the world? ]

When this topic is brought up, no matter what people are talking about before, they are all in the same mood at this moment, and they have infinite envy for those lucky people who saved the world in their previous lives.

And the "lucky ones who saved the world in their previous life" don't know that they are being envied by tens of billions of people in this world, and at this moment, they are going through hell-like trials.

——I was not injured or suffered any other torture. It is probably equivalent to being locked in a blank room and doing high-level math papers day and night. If I make a mistake, I have to think over and over again until I have figured out the whole paper. Yes, get full marks in the test, and then, the next upgraded version of the high-level math test paper is ushered in... In the spiritual world, after being baptized by endless high-level math test papers, he fell deeply into the terrifying exercise hell.

The so-called Art Paradise Trial Space is nothing more than replacing the high-level test papers with all kinds of necessary knowledge for artists.It's not just learning and answering on paper, there are even special practices that really go deep into art.

Every piece of art in the Artist Guild has a different effect, but without exception, they all have the ability to warp minds.The painting of the curse at the beginning unknowingly distorted the consciousness of the four people, almost trapped in the painting forever.Various works of art will appear in the trial space, which directly affect the human spirit. People with low spirituality will be distorted on the spot, dominated by the works of art, fail on the spot, and then be thrown out of the trial The space is restored under Joy's healing art.

Only those who are born with high spirituality, or those who have learned the fur of the spirit-casting technique implied in the trial space, and those who have improved their spirituality the day after tomorrow, can resist the spiritual distortion from works of art such as the cursed painting, and even detect the flaws and fight back .The last type of person who can fight back is undoubtedly the genius among geniuses.

With the continuous learning of knowledge and the continuous in-depth practice of art, some people continue to fail and be eliminated. Those who stay will go further and further on this extraordinary road, and deeply grasp the art knowledge taught by Joey. Engraved in my heart.

To put it simply, it is to keep approaching Joey.

Bai Yi thought about it carefully, and found that this is a bit like the evil god system in the legend: believers continue to receive knowledge from the evil god, become stronger and stronger, but also get closer and closer to the evil god, polluted by the knowledge of the evil god, and finally become more and more powerful. crazier...

——The fragment of the nightmare copy that this system came from at the beginning was a world that returned to ruins, and the reason why that world returned to ruins was because the author of the painting of the curse was the first to hear the ravings from the void and spread the pollution To the whole world, all the artists use the power of pollution to fight against pollution. Therefore, they can only watch the world enter a slow death in the futile delay.

Bai Yi used the principles of all things to embed rules from another world into the physical laws of this world, and naturally it would also have certain characteristics of that world, which he had already considered.

But fortunately, what he embeds is not polluted and distorted rules, but transformed by the pure principles of all things.

What he spreads is not the system of local artists in the world, but the depressing art system created by his own comprehension.Don't worry about this world being polluted and distorted like another world.

In other words, the current Joey, as a disseminator of art, is equivalent to replacing the source of another world's pollution. If you move forward on this road, you don't have to worry about being caught by an unknown existence outside the void like an artist in another world. Pollution, after all, the source of pollution in this world is Joey.

Therefore, artists in this world are not as insane as the author of the cursed painting, at most, they are getting closer and closer to Joy's thinking in terms of artistic concepts.This is probably the process of believers receiving knowledge and approaching evil gods, right?

In this way, when 24 hours in the real world passed, and an unknown amount of time passed in the spiritual space, the Rubik's Cube that originally enveloped the central area of ​​Ronan's capital rose slowly, and slowly shrunk in mid-air until it fell into someone's hands again. .And the people trapped in the trial space also woke up one after another.

But the moment he woke up, except for those who failed the test, every person who succeeded in the test showed inexplicable melancholy.When other people asked what happened in the trial space, they couldn't help showing longing: "It's art! We saw the real supreme art!"

It was written in their eyes brightly: "Let me go back, I can continue, and I have to witness more art!"

Seeing this, other people who didn't know why couldn't help showing yearning expressions: "Sure enough, the trial of the spirit casting master is not only free of danger, but also very rewarding. He is really an enviable lucky guy."

The person next to him who failed the trial and was kicked out was full of question marks, his expression distorted: Seriously?Do you really think so?

But instead of being understood by others, their complex expressions were regarded as the envy and unwillingness of the losers.

In particular, many of them have been tortured by the endless exercise hell, and almost cried when they woke up: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo yeah, that person must be a devil! Really, believe me, that's not at all It is not a test that humans can pass! It is simply a distortion and pollution of the spirit!"

——This kind of speech is even more regarded as the nonsense of a loser.Slandering Sir Joey as a devil for failing to pass the trial. The difficulty of the trial is too high, too low.

Too lazy to pay attention to the nonsense of these losers, more people focus on the lucky ones who have successfully passed the trial.These people are undoubtedly the first batch of spirit casting masters.

They seem to be still immersed in the trial, and at this moment, they burst out with infinite love and pursuit of art. Many people just woke up and couldn't wait to try it.

"I feel like I have a new inspiration! In the past, my understanding of art was too shallow. The real art is like this..."

In such discourse, many people directly find out their own tools—maybe paintbrushes, maybe musical instruments, and start exploring a new real art on the spot.

"Ugh..."

Du Zuo brought the harmonica to his lips, and blew out the first hell note.

This is the underworld version of "Ode to Peace" that Joey led the rhythm before.Before entering the trial space, he couldn't appreciate it, but now he can fully appreciate the beauty of the music.

There was a satisfied smile in his eyes, and he continued to play the harmonica, when he heard an accompaniment that matched him very well, among which there was a kind of familiarity only among acquaintances.

He tilted his head slightly in surprise, and saw a figure pushing away from the crowd and walking to his side.

"Grant...?"

Seeing the appearance of this unilateral mortal enemy who has always disliked him, Du Zuo's eyes showed deep surprise.

But the other party's skillful accompaniment blended harmoniously with his underworld music. Du Zuo understood this person's intentions from the music without using words to communicate.

...Is it because the thoughts about music have become Joey's shape, so they completely understand each other?After all, they are already companions walking on the same path.

The music stopped, and the two "hostile" people glanced at each other, and they saw the tacit understanding of their confidants in each other's eyes. Grant smiled embarrassedly, and stretched out his hand to Du Zuo who seemed to understand what he meant: " I want to say sorry for my unilateral hostility, I was too shallow in the past..."

"Ah, it's okay..." Du Zuo hastily held the other's outstretched hand, "You must have changed your view after seeing real art, right? True art does not require absolute talent, and wholehearted love also Can ignite the spiritual..."

"I have indeed changed my opinion a little bit. But this is only for real art. People who really love art can go on this path even if they are not talented enough. But the art of mortals that I have known in the past is still only qualified for the talented Chase wholeheartedly..." Grant lowered his eyes slightly, with a strange excitement in his eyes, his voice trembling uncontrollably, "I've already remembered, the identity of that Mr. Joey! He is the one who gave us this opportunity , I used to rely on ordinary people's artistic attainments to presumptuously evaluate the real extraordinary art, how superficial!"

The hustle and bustle of the crowd around him was like black and undulating waves beating out bursts of music. The long-haired young man in a classical atmosphere walked silently through the crowd, and no one noticed his specialness.

As if hearing Grant's voice, the young man who walked not far away stamped his feet slightly. His pitch-black hair was gently lifted by the wind, covering his eyes, but a slight smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

...It seems that I have finally grasped a little bit of the true meaning of art.

The sense of satisfaction surging in my heart at this moment must be because I turned a good young man who had gone astray back to the right path of art, right?

...It really makes me feel happy just thinking about it.
