Chapter 286: Chapter 46: Five Elements Particles, Grassman Nine Revolutions

On the boundless field, Zhao Xing strolled along a small path.

On either side of the road, the Primordial Rice was sprouting ears, turning yellow, withering, and then new seeds were germinating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This was the Primordial Dojo, one of the treasure sites of the Taicang Institute, situated not far from the Ten Thousand Skill Palace.

The Grassman Skill belonged to the Self Sect’s spell, and to make significant progress in the spell within seven days, one naturally had to come and comprehend the "Yin Yang Self Scripture," one of the three great sect secret texts.

Zhao Xing had two free entries, and this was his first time entering.

At this moment, he was squatting by the roadside, watching the growth, maturation, and withering of the Primordial Rice.

"The Five Elements Power within the Primordial Rice and the Ksitigarbha Returning Origin Array have achieved a certain balance."

"Rapid growth and withering, Primordial Energy constantly circulating with the external and internal."

Zhao Xing activated [Five Elements Observation].

At this moment, the Primordial Rice disappeared, and so did the field.

Under the spell’s microscopic view, the sky displayed dynamic, brightly colored distribution.

The earth, on the other hand, was darkly colorful, with the dark yellow representing the Earth Element as the main color, and green, gold, blue, red, and purple flowed like lines within the earth.

As the Primordial Rice grew, five colors intertwined and rose from the ground, branching out like a tree as the rice sprouted ears.

As the Primordial Rice withered, the tree-like structure formed by the Five Elements slowly dispersed, flowing back into Heaven and Earth.

Zhao Xing had an epiphany and extended his fingertip.

The flow of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi around him suddenly sped up, and a pale blue power gathered at his fingertip.

Quickly, a droplet of water appeared at his fingertip.

"Splash~"

The droplet fell onto this stalk of Primordial Rice.

The leaves and stalks of the Primordial Rice were completely destroyed.

The droplet entered the soil, destroying even the underground roots, and within 15 minutes, the other Primordial Rice continued the cycle of ’growth-withering-growth,’ but the half-meter square land in front of him could no longer grow anything.

A pure blue hue occupied the half-meter square land until the array automatically repaired after 15 minutes, and everything returned to normal.

"The Dripping Water Technique borrows the principles of Heaven and Earth to form a trend, the growth and withering of Primordial Rice is also an evolution of the principles of Heaven and Earth, another form of natural trend."

"However, the natural trend is much more complex than the trend formed by my Dripping Water Technique," Zhao Xing thought to himself.

The Dripping Water Technique purely concentrated the Water Element Power, forming a destructive trend of Heaven and Earth.

The Primordial Rice was only of the First Order, but it held the Five Elements together internally. Although this natural trend was very weak, Zhao Xing could easily destroy it but could not simulate it, or even understand it, because it involved the ’essence of life.’

"The sages of the Self Sect believe that all things in the world are composed of the Five Elements, and from the theory of the Five Elements, the essence of life for both humans and Primordial Rice is the same."

"Just that at a deeper foundational level, there are extremely significant differences in the power of the Five Elements."

"The Five Elements Power contained in the Primordial Rice is like threads intertwined with each other."

"But the Five Elements Power within the Human Clan is like beams and pillars, the difference is quite evident."

Zhao Xing observed the Five Elements within himself, seeing the flow of the five kinds of ’Qi’ in his body.

Compared to the Primordial Rice, his five streams of ’Qi’ were stronger and more vibrant.

"The Self Sect believes that viewing the Five Elements internally and balancing the Five Elements Qi is just the initial use of the Five Elements Power."

"If one continues to cultivate, they can see deeper ’Five Elements Particles.’

The Self Sect initially called this concept ’force particles,’ but applying ethical relationships to magical concepts seemed inappropriate, so it was renamed ’particles.’

The Heavenly Time Sect and Earth Advantage Sect explored in the macroscopic direction, but the Self Sect delved into the microscopic.

With a thought, Zhao Xing began to balance the Five Elements Qi within his body, attempting to observe the existence of the ’Five Elements Particles’ mentioned by the Self Sect.

But no matter how hard he tried, the Five Elements Qi within his body, from the internal perspective, at most appeared as ’pillar-like’ shapes.

"The First Level of the Yin Yang Self Scripture, Five Elements Qi is like pillars. Internal observation of the Five Elements self and balancing the Five Elements is only at this level."

"The Second Level, Five Elements Qi is like threads, where one can see the myriad threads of the Five Elements Qi in the body, allowing deeper balancing."

"The Third Level, Five Elements Particles, are nearly infinite."

A wisp of Gang Wind appeared at Zhao Xing’s fingertip, harvesting a patch of withered Primordial Rice nearby.

"Rise!"

The Gang Wind blew past, and the rice stalks and leaves automatically assembled, intertwining to form a ’Suicide Explosive Grassman.’

"My technique is no different from before, but this Grassman barely reached One Turn level."

Behind Zhao Xing, there were several Grassmen, one of which was a Suicide Explosive Grassman woven with a Firecracker as its basis.

"The difference is so great because the Firecracker contains Fire Element Qi, which is higher in level than that of the Primordial Rice."

"It is nearly impossible to make a Grassman based on Primordial Rice as strong as one based on a Firecracker."

"Even a First-Rank Chief Minister of Agriculture Officer cannot fundamentally alter the essence of life."

Zhao Xing observed for a while, feeling that cultivating the "Yin Yang Self Scripture" was more difficult and obscure than the other secret texts.

It was also very easy to get lost in the endless microscopic world of the Five Elements.

"Analyzing the essence of life can wait until after the fifth-rank," Zhao Xing gave up on this cultivation method and decided to follow more superficial techniques for now.

Knowing the ’how’ without knowing the ’why,’ the Self Sect focused on academia at the initial stages and only talked about Enlightenment after the fifth-rank.

"Observing the evolution of life in the Primordial Dojo will greatly benefit the application of the Grassman Skill."

Zhao Xing controlled the Gang Wind and rose, sweeping up the Grassmen behind him, flying over the field.
