Chapter 468: Chapter 51: Grassman Succeeds, Array Broken, Qi Yuanzi’s Shock! (6K)_2

A seemingly complete straw man appeared before his eyes, but every part of it showed unusual repulsive forces. The Five Elements vortex either spun slower and slower or whirled wildly out of control.

Zhao Xing, like a frantic firefighter, saw flames bursting out all over the straw man’s body. Maintaining this part, that part would go wrong; stabilizing the upper part, the lower half began to show signs of collapse.

Feeling utterly helpless, a wave of powerlessness surged in his heart.

He was too familiar with this feeling, having failed more than ten thousand times, each time failing at the final stage.

"Five Laws Integration, come on!" Zhao Xing roared internally, holding on with all his might.

Under immense pressure, his essence, energy, and spirit reached their peak.

No matter how chaotic the Five Elements Qi within the straw man became, he desperately salvaged, pulling the spell fusion back from the brink of collapse time and time again.

Such repeated control exerted immense mental pressure. The primordial energy vortex in his Dantian spun wildly, the Seasonal Order, Earth Sand, all hanging on the edge. He had genuinely reached his limit.

Suddenly—

"Boom~" A muffled sound resounded.

Darkness enveloped Zhao Xing’s vision, and his whole body relaxed, his heart sinking to the bottom.

This sound was like the straw man bursting again.

Had he failed again?

Opening his eyes, Zhao Xing saw ’himself’ kneeling on the ground.

"What?"

The peculiar scene immediately made Zhao Xing aware of something.

Looking down, he saw a pair of rough, wooden-textured hands.

"The Five Laws Integration succeeded! I’m seeing from the Myriad Laws Straw Man’s perspective!"

Jubilant, Zhao Xing was ecstatic.

"Hahahahaha!"

He laughed up to the sky.

But in his excitement, he forgot this straw man was still rather crude and had no mouth.

Overwhelmed with excitement, the straw man directly disintegrated.

An unintentional wisp of life soul that had merged into the straw man returned to its original body.

"Phew~"

Exhaling deeply, Zhao Xing gazed at the remnants of the straw man before him, a smile spreading across his face.

I didn’t mind its collapse; I had already learned it.

Having crossed this hurdle, the rest was just about refining the small details!

At this moment, his panel already had a new spell.

[Myriad Laws Straw Man (High Order)]

[Progress: One Transition]

[Effect: Perfect integration of the Five Laws, achieving the Myriad Laws Straw Man. This Grassman Skill, upon execution, will split off a wisp of life soul, allowing it to exist for a long period. As the realm improves, other spells can be infinitely added!]

"I have mastered the strongest Grassman Skill." Zhao Xing grinned widely. "This is an ultimate spell from the Primordial Qi Era; in the Spiritual Energy Recovery Era, its effects will be even stronger, akin to a divine skill, benefiting me immensely."

The Myriad Laws Straw Man was a life-saving divine skill of the Grand Minister of Agriculture. Liu Tianning faced numerous assassination attempts during Emperor Wu’s period and lived well, eventually dying of old age.

As long as he didn’t want to die, no one could kill him.

Since no one could figure out which was Liu Tianning’s original body, nor could they find it.

Of course, this excluded Emperor Wu.

If Emperor Wu in his prime intended to kill Liu Tianning, he could still manage it.

After a certain period, he couldn’t.

"If I reached Liu Tianning’s level, obtained Mi Fei’s ’Xuanhuang Analysis Technique’, nurtured the spirit with the Spirit Mountain Technique, broke the Grassman Skill’s limitations, and went to various Grotto Heavens to elevate my Qi Fortune to ten evolutions and fetched a few treasures, even Emperor Wu at his peak couldn’t kill me." Zhao Xing thought to himself.

Him being a First-Rank Chief Minister of Agriculture Officer was a completely different concept from Liu Tianning being one.

Zhao Xing becoming a First-Rank Chief Minister of Agriculture Officer would be much stronger than Liu Tianning!

"Now it seems, I have no choice but to accept this cause and effect from Lao Liu."

Liu Tianning’s painstaking guidance, even to the extent of consuming his life soul, inevitably established a master-disciple relationship; this cause and effect were much heavier than Tian Shan’s monetary investment.

"You chose me, and I will not disappoint you. I will certainly carry forward your Liu family’s Grassman Skill!" Zhao Xing thought firmly.

One of Liu Tianning’s greatest wishes was to prevent the Liu family’s Grassman Skill from being lost.

....

Having mastered the Self Grassman, Zhao Xing sent a message through the Earth Mirror to Liu Tianning to share the good news.

In the Ten Thousand Skill Palace, Liu Tianning, upon seeing the message on the Earth Mirror, revealed a slight smile.

It was not just because Zhao Xing’s talent was astonishing, actually mastering the Myriad Laws Straw Man, but also because Zhao Xing addressed him as "master" in the message. With a successor for the Liu’s Grassman Skill, Liu Tianning was naturally pleased.

On the other side, Zhao Xing hurriedly refined the Myriad Laws Straw Man, quickly reaching the High Order Third Transition level.

Upon mastering the Myriad Laws Straw Man, integrating other Grassman Spells became much easier for him.

Including the initial spells he had learned, ’Scouting’, ’Returning’, ’Great Strength’, and other initial-stage spells, he could integrate them all.

He could even integrate some other spells, such as the Bright Eyes Technique, allowing the straw man to see farther.

However, at the High Order Third Transition level, Zhao Xing could only accommodate mid-level spells, unable to contain high-order spells.

Nonetheless, in terms of effectiveness, even his original body might not be as useful as the straw man.

Because he didn’t know spells like Illusion and Invisibility, but the straw man could perform them.

"Now I can simultaneously create three Self Grassmen; any more would place immense stress on my life soul, and these three straw men can’t be lost casually."

"If one gets damaged, it would harm my life soul." Zhao Xing looked at the three straw men before him.

Due to possessing the Illusion spell, the current appearance of the straw men was indistinguishable from his original body, especially when donning a raincoat, a bamboo hat, and holding a staff. Normal people couldn’t tell the difference.

"It’s time to tackle the bewildering formations on Anping Path and Nanxiang Path!" Zhao Xing didn’t hesitate and immediately convened a Jun Shu Order meeting in Tonghuo City.

"From today, the supply transport teams will still pass through Anping Path and Nanxiang Path!" Zhao Xing issued the order. "This official will personally lead the team."
