Chapter 695: Chapter 14: Lightning Bamboo, Hallucinogenic Mushrooms, Jungle Jump (12,000)_5

After the demonstration, the unnamed Minister of Agriculture continued

"The first level of the Grass and Trees are Soldiers Skill was guiding."

"The second level was controlling."

"Both of these relied on the cultivation of the Yin Yang Self Scripture."

The unnamed Minister of Agriculture waved his hand, and at that moment, the world became transparent and illusory.

The wild boar, the land, all disappeared, leaving only a single vine.

A certain connection was formed between it and the unnamed Minister of Agriculture.

Upon closer inspection, Zhao Xing could see strands of the Five Elements Qi flowing within the vine.

"The Five Elements Qi, as thin as threads, thousands of strands, so that’s how it is." Zhao Xing had an epiphany.

No wonder one of the essential conditions for Pure Essence Soil was thorough insight into the second level of the Yin Yang Self Scripture.

The power of the Five Elements infiltrated plant life, allowing complete control over the plants’ traits.

This achieved the state of control.

"The principle is similar to the Grassman Skill, but the Grassman Skill is more complex, leaning more towards spells."

"While plant soldiers rely more on the innate talents of plant life."

Zhao Xing, who had studied the Ten Thousand Skill Grassman, immediately understood why the Grassman Skill was categorized under the Grass and Trees are Soldiers Skill.

"The third level of the Grass and Trees are Soldiers Skill is also the ultimate goal of the Self Sect."

The unnamed Minister of Agriculture waved his hand, and another scene appeared around them.

Beside him appeared another illusion.

Next to the illusion was a field of golden soybeans.

It walked into the soybean field, picked a handful of beans, and then opened its palm, blowing a breath.

Whoosh~

Dozens of beans instantly transformed into dozens of soldiers clad in golden armor.

"What you see before you is an image passed down from the Ancient Times." ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com

"It recorded the legendary Divine Skill - Planting Beans into Soldiers."

"Which is also the third level of the Grass and Trees are Soldiers Skill, called Endowment with Spirit."

"We must practice diligently to recreate the supreme Divine Skill of the Self Sect from Ancient Times."

The scene ended here.

Zhao Xing opened his eyes again.

"I didn’t expect the Self Sect to have the concept of Divine Skill in this era, even preserving images from the last Spiritual Energy Era; this is truly remarkable," Zhao Xing thought to himself.

The things passed down from the last Spiritual Energy Era are very few, the time gap is too long, and they cannot be mastered, gradually becoming legends.

"The Grassman Skill, the Mountain Technique, both need the Spiritual Energy Era to truly shine. With the change of eras, the power of these spells will be further enhanced."

"Learning up to the second level will suffice for me," Zhao Xing thought to himself.

Reproducing the Primordial Qi Era’s brilliance is impossible.

Unless he found a large amount of spiritual energy, but if there was a large amount of spiritual energy, he would use it to upgrade the Pure Essence Soil, not to practice the third level of the Grass and Trees are Soldiers Skill.

The third level, called Endowment with Spirit, couldn’t be achieved without spiritual energy.

Cultivating mountain spirits and wild beasts also required the Spiritual Energy Era.

How much spiritual energy remained in the Xuanhuang Realm?

Zhao Xing shook his head

"That rain was the last glory, and it would also be the last spiritual energy revival of the Xuanhuang Realm."

Locking his thoughts in the memory palace, Zhao Xing looked at the panel.

[Grass and Trees are Soldiers, Advanced Magic]

[Effect: With one’s understanding of the Dao, guide and control plant soldiers to release their inherent traits.]

[Progress: High Order Sixth Transition]

"Cultivating the second level of the Yin Yang Self Scripture results in reaching the Sixth Transition of the Grass and Trees are Soldiers Skill."

However, this spell still needed to adapt according to the plant life characteristics.

Its power depended entirely on the plant soldiers.

The first two levels of this spell focused on the soldiers, not on the person.

Mastering the high-order version of the Grass and Trees are Soldiers Skill, the remaining task was to wait for the plant soldiers to mature and perform practical exercises.

"Besides that, there was the cultivation of derivative species, which should be practiced after attaining proficiency."

"Cultivating derivative species was also a central task for the Self Sect’s Minister of Agriculture."

"The Grassman Skill could combine multiple skills, while derivative species involved merging the characteristics of various plant life forms."

Zhao Xing thought of the mushroom species he had selected.

Firecracker + Hallucinogenic Mushroom, and then coated with an Invisibility Spell, were essential tools for trickery.

"A single step would trigger an explosion, emitting hallucinogenic poison gas, invincible in trench warfare, but I wonder if it could be used during the Beast Taming Competition."

Zhao Xing thought this could cause trouble, but no one had said that the Minister of Agriculture couldn’t use his spells while being a Beast Tamer.

...

Time passed, and in no time, three days flew by.

By then, the three kinds of plants had already fully matured on the first day, although Zhao Xing had taken some extra time to cultivate the Grass and Trees are Soldiers Skill.

"Pure Essence Projection!"

Buzz~ A soil illusion descended, shrouding over three thousand square feet of the surrounding ground.

Thirty plants of Lightning Bamboo, ten plants of Resilient Vines, and thirty hallucinogenic mushrooms appeared.

Zhao Xing scanned the three plants with the plant version of the Shang Heng Instrument.

Detailed information soon appeared.

[Name: Lightning Bamboo]

[Quality: Elite Second Order]

[State: Maturity]

[Trait: Thunder Power; each node of the Lightning Bamboo stored thunder energy, with a maturity standard of at least thirty-six nodes. This particular plant had forty-five nodes.]

[Comprehensive Evaluation: Fifth Order Supreme]

...

[Name: Resilient Vine]

[Quality: Elite Second Order]

[State: Maturity]

[Trait: Double Resilience, Free Expansion; Resilient Vine had extreme toughness, unable to be cut through by a Fifth-Order Divine Weapon. Its natural length was a kilometer, able to extend up to twice its length and contract to a minimum of a hundred meters. This particular plant could reach up to one and a half kilometers, exceeding the average flexibility by a factor of two.]
