Lin Yu's attention wasn't solely focused on ["Brushwork Blooms"].
He also noticed another physique-related talent—
["Delicate Frame"]!
At the current intimacy level,
only the skill name was displayed, with no description available.
But judging by the name alone,
the gist was easy to grasp.
It probably meant the socially anxious little artist was fragile, soft, and prone to...
What the hell would happen if he ended up with ["Delicate Frame"]?
Would he collapse at a girl's touch, left utterly at her mercy?
Yikes!
Using a Ghost Hand Talisman on little Fufu might be a bit risky, no?
If he tried learning painting now...
He'd probably have to study till his grandma's age in his past life to gain any skill!
The more he thought, the messier it got.
Fortune favors the bold—after all, he hadn't seen the little artist collapse and spread-eagle at a touch.
So what if he was a bit delicate? Maybe there'd be a chance to patch things up with medicine later.
Having used the ["Forbidden Expedition Talisman"] before,
activating the ["Ghost Hand Talisman"] this time felt much smoother.
After preparing the incantation in his mind,
an additional option appeared to confirm the target before he crushed it.
Flickers of crimson light faded in his mind as the system prompt followed—
[Ding!]
[Ghost Hand Talisman activated...]
[Target: Joyous Sect Talisman Master!]
[Congratulations, host! You’ve acquired the attribute skill: "Kaleidoscopic Vision"!]
["Kaleidoscopic Vision": A myriad of hues flood the discerning eye, piercing the colors of the heavens. No longer bound by mortal sight, the world blooms in radiant splendor.]
Lin Yu: "???"
What the—?
He’d meant to test the Ghost Hand Talisman’s accuracy,
but instead verified another ability—
Even without seeing the attribute skill, the talisman could randomly copy it!
["Kaleidoscopic Vision"] was completely unexpected.
After gaining the skill,
Lin Yu quickly grasped its effects.
Everything around him now seemed sharper in color contrast.
So this was... hyper-chromatic vision!
So this was how vibrant the little artist’s world was?
Beyond the visual upgrade,
a flood of professional color terminology also poured into Lin Yu’s mind.
Scarlet, mahogany, tangerine, grapefruit, peach, berry...
Hey!
Honestly,
without this ability,
Lin Yu’s world would’ve categorized those shades as:
Super red, very red, red, kinda red, reddish-yellow, reddish-black...
At least picking lipstick would be a breeze now.
But right now,
what the hell was the point of just distinguishing colors?
On to the second Ghost Hand Talisman—
Lin Yu steadied his breathing, inhaling deeply.
Time for some gacha luck!
[Ding!]
[Ghost Hand Talisman activated...]
[Target: Joyous Sect Talisman Master!]
[Congratulations, host! You’ve acquired the attribute skill: "Brushwork Blooms"!]
["Brushwork Blooms": Talismans channel the heavenly dao, a single stroke unveils eternity. Within paper lies cosmos and suns; ink holds the truth of the divine.]
Lin Yu: "!!!"
Finally!
Two talismans weren’t wasted after all.
Disaster averted—no weird skills this time.
"Brushwork Blooms" was now his!
A vast reservoir of painting techniques and experience flooded Lin Yu’s mind.
This was way more thrilling than watching a soccer goal.
A goal?
Hell, he was almost in the goal!
While the two girls chatted in hushed tones, Lin Yu swiftly moved to the next step before forgetting—
[Ding!]
["Dreamwalk Technique" activated!]
[Tonight, the host will appear in the Joyous Sect Talisman Master’s dream (dream type randomized)!]
Another bold step toward becoming Ysera.
With "Brushwork Blooms" and "Ysera," could the little artist escape tomorrow?
The soul-cultivation hurdle had to be cleared first!
The innocent little artist had no idea
her dreams tonight were already booked by Lin Yu.
...
Twenty minutes later,
Mo Shangying and Ye Mengfu left Lin Yu’s bedroom.
The trio had discussed the upcoming soccer match—the final at dawn two days later.
After being called "Master" for days by Shangying,
Lin Yu couldn’t let it go to waste.
He skipped predicting the third-place match (he genuinely didn’t remember the outcome)
and went straight to the final, giving Shangying and Ye Mengfu the correct result.
Having witnessed the miraculous 7-1 prediction,
Mo Shangying didn’t doubt Lin Yu’s words for a second.
She planned to place her bet at peak odds tomorrow, with Lin Yu joining in.
Beyond the match, two days later marked another important occasion—Thursday!
(Disclaimer: It’s Thursday here because the plot says so. Don’t @ me.)
If Messi couldn’t score, the sect’s star striker would take over.
The tank would crush the cocky little Pampas whiners...
And for that,
some celebratory prep was essential.

[Ding!]
[Spent...]

All four items were instantly cleared out.
The [Available Spirit Stones] counter plummeted by 5000.
Earning spirit stones had seemed easy before,
but spending them felt like watching water slip through his fingers.
Time to grind more stones—especially with his dao companions,
since their "easter egg" rewards doubled the usual payout.
After the shopping spree,
Lin Yu opened his inventory to inspect the items.
["Immortal-Binding Rope" (chamber-only, dao companions only)]
[Description: Once a Kunlun relic for subduing serpents, now a crimson drape for teasing phoenixes. Soft as love, hard as steel—resistance melts into bliss.]
[...]
["Joyous Bell" (chamber-only, dao companions only)]
[Once a chime for clarity, now remade for ecstasy. A single ring stirs the heart; three chimes leave jade limbs sprawled.]
Lin Yu: "Yikes!"
The system’s really good at writing racy poetry.
Vivid, straightforward—no deep analysis needed.
At least it hadn’t crossed into "felony" territory.
Restricted to chambers and dao companions,
it set a moral baseline for this scoundrel.
How oddly principled.
u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
reezy rom-com) Good news: Jiang Liu is quite the ladies' man. Bad news: He’s lost his memory. Lying in a hospital bed, Jiang Liu listens to a parade of goddesses spouting "absurd claims," feeling like the world is one giant game of Werewolf. "Jiang Liu, I’m your first love." "Jiang Liu, you’re my boyfriend—she’s your ex." "Jiang Liu, we’re close friends who’ve shared a bed, remember?" "Jiang Liu, I want to have your baby." The now-lucid Jiang Liu is convinced this must be some elaborate scam... until someone drops the bombshell: "The day before you lost your memory, you confessed your feelings—and got into a relationship." Jiang Liu is utterly baffled. So... who the hell is his actual girlfriend?! ... Before recovering his memories, Jiang Liu must navigate this minefield of lies and sincerity, fighting to protect himself from these women’s schemes. But things spiral even further out of control as more people show up at his doorstep—each with increasingly unhinged antics. On the bright side, the memories he lost due to overwhelming trauma seem to be resurfacing. Great news, right? So why are they all panicking now?
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
Heart] Chen Yi traversed the cultivation world for eight hundred years, charging his way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Just as he was outwitting his 81st Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to immortality, he was suddenly pulled into a chat group called the "Multiverse Transmigrators Support Group." To his surprise, the group was filled with nothing but fresh-faced newbies who had just transmigrated. [Help! I transmigrated into a disgraced concubine in the cold palace, and the tyrant emperor is about to execute me!] [I ended up as a cannon-fodder villain, and the protagonist is still chasing me—WTF!] [I woke up as the protagonist’s father, but I’m about to be sacrificed in a ritual! What do I do? Urgent!!!] Chen Yi stared at the chaotic flood of desperate pleas in the group and fell into deep thought. "Seriously? You drag me into a newbie transmigrator chat group… only after I’m one step away from becoming an immortal?"
