Against the sky starts from copying

Chapter 12
With the help of Tiansheng Illustrated Book, Lin Tianyang already knew the value of his thought power, but after all, it was only a self-assessment, not a recognized standard test.

"Why don't you go in and have a try, and see how my strength compares with other painters!" Lin Tianyang's eyes were full of light.

Before he could speak, Liu Donghai saw through his thoughts, and immediately asked someone to open a test room, saying respectfully: "Mr. Lin has such a taste, so you might as well go in and have a try."

Lin Tianyang nodded his thanks and walked into the test room after a few steps, the door behind him closed automatically.

The test room is not big, [-] zhang square, surrounded by a closed, not even a window, will not be disturbed by any outside world, it can be seen that the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce has done a good job in protecting the privacy of the testers.

"With these few testing rooms alone, we can attract countless painters and stimulate them to spend money. What a great way!"

Lin Tianyang thought for a while, and then saw through the purpose of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce in arranging these test rooms. After admiring, his eyes fell on the only white stone round platform placed in the room.

The white stone round platform is about five feet high and has a simple shape. A disc is engraved on the table, marking different scales. According to the painter's realm, it is arranged and circled from left to right, starting from the lower level of enlightenment state and ending at the upper level of gathering spirit state.

There is a small ball placed on the scale of the lower level of Enlightenment, and the tester needs to push this ball around the scale with his mind, and when he pushes it to the corresponding position, he can know the strength of his mind.

"Eight-Rank Spiritual Treasure Apparatus has been detected, and the scan is complete..."

"Copying the forging blueprint requires 450 points of thought power..."

"Improving the forging blueprint requires 980 points of thought power..."

"The host currently has insufficient thought power, cannot be copied, cannot be improved..."

The notification sound of Tiansheng illustrated book flashed away.

The corner of Lin Tianyang's mouth twitched, full of resentment: "I just got promoted to a middle-grade painter in the Enlightenment Realm, and you always remind me that my mental strength is insufficient. Are you trying to emphasize that I am still a poor ghost?"

Knowing that the white stone round table in front of him is an eighth-grade spirit treasure did not surprise him. How could the object that can accurately test the strength of thought force be just a stone?

With the power of thought activated, the small ball started to spin slowly, and began to move forward along the concave path on the round platform, and soon approached the graduation mark of the Enlightenment Realm.

Lin Tianyang calmed down, pushed the small ball across the line easily, and headed for the next scale line.

At this moment, he already felt a little strenuous, but not to the point of difficulty in walking, the small ball slowly slid, and gently crossed the scale line of the top grade of Enlightenment!

"Enlightenment Realm Top Grade!"

Lin Tianyang's pupils contracted, and he was overjoyed: "My thought power has actually reached the strength of the top-grade enlightenment state!"

Regardless of being full of joy, the little ball is still moving forward, of course he will not give up on this, and he will mobilize his thoughts without reservation.

The thought power value on the Tiansheng illustrated book was consumed rapidly, and fell below [-] points in an instant. The faint sense of exertion became more and more intense as the small ball moved, and the speed gradually slowed down. The naked eye could hardly see Xiaoyuan. The ball is moving.

Lin Tianyang felt a little weak in succession.

Looking at the round platform again, the small ball is only three inches away from the lower-grade scale line of Gathering Spirit Realm.

"Give it a try!" He exerted all his thoughts and pushed the little ball forward again!
The value of thought power dropped rapidly, and it was only twenty o'clock in an instant. Lin Tianyang clearly felt that there seemed to be a solid barrier in front of the small ball.

Seeing that there was nothing he could do, he withdrew his thoughts instantly, and the little ball automatically returned to the starting line.

"Enlightenment state top-grade, infinitely close to the spirit-gathering state!" Lin Tianyang regained his composure, his face full of shock: "I never thought that my thought power would be so strong!"

The ball returned to the starting point, and three rows of embossed small characters immediately appeared in the blank space in the center of the round table.

"Intensity of thought power: top-grade enlightenment state."

"Psychic power grade: first grade."

"The Realm of a Painter: Middle Grade in the Realm of Enlightenment."

Lin Tianyang was ecstatic when he saw the three rows of small characters clearly!
Different cultivation methods will produce different mind powers. The higher the grade of the exercises, the more pure the mind power cultivated, and the strength is incomparable.

"Tian Yan Jiu Xing Jue is a holy grade exercise. My mind power will never stop at the first grade. I'm afraid it's the limit that can be judged by the Lingling Instrument!"

Lin Tianyang felt that his thoughts must be right, otherwise, with his mid-level mind power in the Enlightenment Realm, how could he reach the strength infinitely close to the Spirit Gathering Realm? Such a huge span is definitely beyond the reach of the first-level mind power!
Guessing secretly, he was even more impressed by the Tianyan Nine Stars Art in his heart. He only practiced it for a few hours from the beginning to the end, but it made him look like a completely new person. Ordinarily, he felt that even if he was confronted with a high-grade artist in the Enlightenment Realm, he would dare to fight him!
All these changes are caused by the magic of the Tianyan Nine Stars Art.

"It's terrible!" He said scary, but his eyes were full of smiles: "Will I be able to compete with the painters of the Gathering Realm when I am promoted to the top rank of Enlightenment Realm?"

At the end of the test, Lin Tianyang was in a good mood, and quickly withdrew, looking as usual.

Liu Donghai was still guarding the door. Seeing his dull face, he thought that the result of the test was unsatisfactory, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He just smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, you are out."

"En." Lin Tianyang responded calmly, making it impossible to hear any emotional fluctuations.

"I ordered someone to pack and prepare all the items I bought earlier, and the total cost was 200 taels of silver. Should I send them to you today?" Liu Donghai asked respectfully.

Lin Tianyang thought for a while, now that it was getting late, it would be inconvenient to send so many things home, so he said: "I will send it with the final payment tomorrow, so that you don't have to make an extra trip, and you can choose some commonly used items." The elixir is delivered, and the grade cannot exceed the eighth grade!"

After wandering around the hall for a while, he has figured out the limit of the pill that can be improved at present, which is the eighth grade.

Seventh-rank pills need [-] points of thought power to improve, which is far beyond what he can do now, let alone higher-rank pills.

Liu Donghai was a little puzzled, and asked doubtfully, "Can you tell me exactly what kind of elixir Mr. Lin needs?"

"Don't worry about the effect, you just choose the best-selling pill." Lin Tianyang gave the range after thinking about it, and said in a low voice: "I'll take it back and let my master see if I can get a few more." Improve the formula and come out."

Liu Donghai's complexion suddenly changed drastically, his eyes were full of surprise.

There is indeed a master of alchemy behind this son, and he is also his master!

Never offend!
Liu Donghai made up his mind in an instant, and his attitude was unprecedentedly respectful: "Thank you, Mr. Lin! I will definitely deliver the elixir properly tomorrow. Don't worry, my lord. This batch of elixirs should be regarded as a thank you gift from the Universal Chamber of Commerce. Thank you for improving the recipe!"

Seeing his respectful attitude, Lin Tianyang nodded in satisfaction, knowing that his words had achieved their effect.

The fact that a 16-year-old boy is holding the Heaven-Defying Pill is really suspicious. If you don't reveal a mysterious master, I'm afraid someone will become suspicious.

But what he said was not completely false. Isn't the Tiansheng illustrated book his most powerful master?
"The illustrated book is in my hand, I have it in the world..." Lin Tianyang sighed triumphantly, and added: "Don't thank shopkeeper Liu, since you have already sent so many pills, why don't you send me some more pills that can restore mind power!"

This request seemed a bit aggressive, but Liu Donghai wanted to confess him at this time, so he dared to refuse, so he agreed repeatedly.

Only then did Lin Tianyang say goodbye with satisfaction, and when he passed by the counter selling the Four Treasures of the Study, he had a flash of inspiration. He borrowed a pen, ink, paper and inkstone to block everyone's sight, and planned to copy the screenshots he had saved before. Startled.

"It is detected that there is a sixth-grade spirit treasure in the screenshot. Copying the screenshot requires 23 points of thought power. Do you want to copy it?"

Sixth Grade Spirit Treasure?

"As expected of the daughter of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, you can carry a sixth-grade spirit treasure with you." Lin Tianyang shook his head and sighed. Fortunately, he just copied the screenshot. If he really copied the sixth-grade spirit treasure, it would be impossible to think without thousands of points of thought power. Don't even think about it.

Fortunately, after practicing the Tianyan Nine Stars Art, the nine stars in the Sea of ​​Consciousness operated on their own, and the power of mind was recovering all the time. At this time, the value of mind power had recovered to 58 points. He gritted his teeth and directly chose to copy.

"I don't want to let my child be tricked by a wolf, how can I not spend some money if I want to pick up a girl?" He comforted himself in this way.

After the copy was completed, he folded the drawing paper and sent it to Liu Donghai: "Shopkeeper Liu, please pass this painting on to your eldest lady, and just say that today I am honored to have a chance meeting with her."

What kind of man do women like most?
handsome?rich?Talented?Understand romance?

Neither... What women like most is a man who is handsome, rich, talented and romantic, just like him!

Before Liu Donghai came back to his senses, he already shook his head and left with great satisfaction.

"Another ignorant boy who covets the beauty of the young lady..." Liu Donghai shook his head helplessly and smiled wryly. He casually opened the drawing paper in his hand, and was immediately stunned, as if struck by lightning!

As soon as he left the gate of the Universal Chamber of Commerce, a servant led him into a black wooden carriage, which was ordered by Liu Donghai in advance.

The coachman flicked his whip, and the black horse pulling the cart started slowly, pulling the carriage steadily and set off.

Lin Tianyang half-lyed on the soft collapse, thinking that he was going home soon, and complicated emotions gradually arose in his heart.

He was born in an orphanage in his previous life. He didn't know who his parents were, and he didn't have any relatives.

Thinking that he was about to meet the most beautiful woman in his memory, he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

His home is far away in the civilian area at the foot of the city wall, a long distance from the Universal Chamber of Commerce. The black steed walked for more than half an hour before delivering him to the door of his house.

The sun has already slanted to the west, and the afterglow remains.

The coachman respectfully took him out of the carriage and left after saluting. He stood in front of the house and carefully looked at his home in this life.

This is a rather dilapidated small courtyard house. The stone steps in front of the door are weather-beaten and damaged. The red-painted wooden door and threshold are all faded. If the front door is not cleaned very clean, it looks nothing like an old house in a mountain village. difference.

After entering the door, there is a small courtyard, which is also very clean. There is a well, a small tree, and a few pots of unknown flowers. There are five low houses with white walls and black tiles scattered around the courtyard, which are also a bit dilapidated.

Lin Tianyang stood in the small courtyard and looked around, feeling a sense of warmth in his soul, which made him smile unconsciously.

"Master, you are back!"

An old woman came out of the kitchen in the northwest corner, dressed plainly, and when she saw him standing in the courtyard, she immediately greeted him with a cheer: "Why did you come back so late this year, you can have dinner soon!"

"Grandma Chen." Lin Tianyang recognized the old woman, and called softly. Granny Chen has no name and surname. Because her wife's surname is Chen, others call her Granny Chen. Since he was sensible, the two of them have been taking care of her. The daily life of his whole family.

Granny Chen pinched his arm, feeling distressed: "You're thinner again, Granny will go get you some food right away."

"It's okay, Granny Chen, don't be too busy, where's my sister?" Lin Tianyang asked a little strangely when he didn't see his sister.

Granny Chen sighed, her face full of sadness: "Little master, you don't know, the store suddenly caught fire last night, and a lot of things were burned. The eldest lady and my wife are counting the losses in the study!"

"What!" Lin Tianyang's complexion changed suddenly, and he said in surprise, "How could this happen?"
