Chapter 248 Lightning Bamboo Hallucinogenic Mushrooms, Jungle Jump ()

Liu Tianning didn't expect that Zhao Xing not only opened up pure Yuan soil, but also covered such a large area.

More than three thousand square meters, many of the old fifth-grade masters of the ego faction are no more than this.

"You've made great progress." Liu Tianning nodded, "The three hundred million is worth it."

To have such performance, the 300 million points are totally worth it.

Zhao Xing said: "Actually, 10 billion worth of resources were spent. The princess also took good care of me. My disciple's Wanfa clone also had some good fortunes while exploring the East China Sea."

Liu Tianning pondered and said, "When you reach the fifth level, I will find you resources worth tens of billions."

Hundreds of billions of resources? This time it was Zhao Xing's turn to be stunned.

How come Lao Liu is so rich?
Liu Tianning said calmly: "After the war against the barbarians is over, I will become the vice president of Shangluo Academy regardless of whether I can be promoted to a third-rank official."

"Even if it's just the beginning, the resources I can control are at least trillions of dollars. These resources are mainly used to train the talented Si Nong of my sect."

"As my disciple, it is not difficult for you to enjoy the training of tens of billions of resources."

Zhao Xing thought about it for a moment and immediately understood.

Liu Tianning, a member of the Sinong family in Taihe County, might not be able to easily give out 10 billion to his apprentice. Even if he had so much, the Liu family was still a large family, and he had an older brother, who was the head of the family.

But Liu Tianning, the leader of the ego faction, is different.

The way of Si Nong has been passed down for tens of millions of years. Shangluo Academy, Lianhua Academy and other Si Nong gathering places have a long history and heritage. No one can tell how terrifying their background is.

But no matter who rules the world, it will not affect their farming.

Because the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture had no political inclinations, their ideal and ambition was to farm and bring peace to the country.

No dynasty would massacre the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture. On the contrary, they were the primary targets of the new dynasty.

When the country was being built, the Nineteen States had been ravaged by many wars, and the weather and geographical conditions were in chaos. If one wanted to recover quickly and stabilize the country, one could not do without the Minister of Agriculture.

After the war to pacify the barbarians, it didn't matter to Liu Tianning whether he could become a third-rank official in the imperial court or not. As long as he could become the leader of his own faction, he would definitely get a high-ranking official position.

The reason why he is the vice president of Shangluo Academy is mainly because the current leader of the ego faction, Xu Xing, is still alive.

But Xu Xing couldn't hold on for much longer. Zhao Xing recalled that this second-rank Shao Nongqing was already 775 years old.

Xu Xing, a second-rank official, has the strength of a first-rank official. Even if he can live for more than 800 years, he doesn't have much time left.

In his previous life, Xu Xing also lived for seventeen years.

It is impossible for the I-Faction to wait until someone dies before selecting someone, so they have already started looking for candidates. The moment Liu Tianning came out of the military and started working, there was no suspense about this matter.

The spell that best represents the ego school is the Straw Man of All Laws.

Liu Tianning’s great-grandfather was the dean of the Lotus Academy. Although he was not a leader, he also had a very high status.

With such a good background, Liu Tianning brought the Wanfa Caoren to a new height.

The other vice presidents were no match for him and were just runners-up.

Liu Tianning himself doesn't have that much money to give to his disciples.

But after he succeeded, he took on the responsibility of revitalizing the ego faction and did not have to wait for Xu Xing's death to take action.

Cultivating the Si Nong of the Self-faction was what he wanted to do, just like when he taught the Straw Man Method in Shiyang Cave.

Although there are few people in the ego faction, they are very united. Those who can be called the ministers of the ego faction are at least at the fifth level.

Liu Tianning said that he controlled trillions of resources, but he was still being modest!

Although Zhao Xing is his apprentice, he has the ability to obtain hundreds of billions of resources, so I think there will be no objection.

However, this is not given for free.

According to Lao Liu's personality, he is very strict in assessing his disciples.

As expected, Zhao Xing heard Liu Tianning say again:
"In the first stage, I'll give you 500 million."

"With these 500 million, you need to cultivate five-level plants of the mainstream 'family', 'system', 'class', 'species', 'phylum', and 'genus'. You need to explore every level of classification."

"In addition, you need to be proficient in using Pure Element Projection, master its combat methods, and enter the [Dojo] to improve your ranking."

“This is the first phase goal.”

"In the second stage, I will give you at least 2 billion to cultivate level 6 plants and level 5 pure elemental soil."

"Also, you have to go to the dojo to hone yourself. No matter if you are at the fifth or fourth rank, you must become the top-ranked Si Nong of the Benwo Sect in the middle rank realm of Pinghaizhou."

"In the third stage, I will give you at least 8 billion to cultivate six levels of seventh-order plants. The goal is to reach the middle-grade realm in Pinghaizhou and become the first Si Nong."

Liu Tianning did not say anything about what happened afterwards, because if Zhao Xing completed the three goals, no matter what his official rank was, he would have possessed high-level combat power.

At that time, Zhao Xing was also a senior executive, and he also had to shoulder the responsibility of training the younger generation. As for his future path, Liu Tianning had not yet made such arrangements for him.

Zhao Xing listened quietly.

He can easily cultivate a fifth-level plant.

The only difficulty lies in what Liu Tianning said, which covers all series.

Some trees have a relatively long growth cycle, such as large trees. With his current scale, it is still quite difficult to plant large trees.

Of course, the goals of the first phase are generally simple, and it is not difficult to accomplish these tasks with 500 million yuan.

The second and third stages are difficult.

"After completing the first stage of the goal, come back to me."

"Yes, thank you teacher for your cultivation." Zhao Xing said respectfully.

Then Liu Tianning asked some more questions, mainly about the insights into the three secret books. The two masters and apprentices discussed for half an hour across the ground mirror before ending their conversation.

As soon as it was over, Zhao Xing received a message in his ground mirror that 500 million points had arrived.

"Old Liu is an elite from the Sinong family, so he can get a lot of gold coins."

"Doing his task is a hundred or a thousand times better than doing any other task." Zhao Xing couldn't help but sigh.

Compared with Liu Tianning, Mi Fu's influence during his lifetime was completely incomparable. Perhaps it was only in his later years that people compared him with Liu Tianning.

"Old man Mi's Xuanhuang Xiyuan technique is not suitable for public disclosure for the time being." Zhao Xing thought.

First of all, Old Liu has embarked on an invincible path, no matter his strength, family background, reputation in the court and the public, military and political power... Liu Tianning's rise is unstoppable, and he is destined to become the Minister of Agriculture in the future.

It makes no difference whether you have this Xuanhuang Xiyuan technique or not.

But Zhao Xing wants to rely on this secret method to complete his plan, and this can only be done after he reaches a high level.

Spiritual treasures are hard to find at this stage. Only a piece of willow branch was found in Princess Youruo’s treasure house. There is no point in talking about it.

When more spiritual treasures are found, they can be used by both Lao Liu and Mi Fu.

"With Liu Tianning, we are really on the fast track to upgrading."

"Giving so much...he is really afraid that I will be greedy." Zhao Xing couldn't help but smile.

Including the 300 million given before, the total amount given now is 800 million.

Liu Tianning is not the vice president yet, so I guess he has to pay for this money out of his own pocket.

"Maybe the money was lent to him by the princess." Zhao Xing guessed.

Because not long after, Princess Youruo contacted him and asked him if he had broken through to the fifth level.

He had never told anyone that he had reached the fifth level, so it must have been Liu Tianning who told her.

"I guess the princess took the initiative to pay for it. It's really enviable. She can earn money without doing anything."

After obtaining 500 million points, Zhao Xing left Gemini Island again.

He had to go to the military world to make some purchases, and the nearest entrance to the military world was Jiujiang Dongtian.

Although Lao Liu did not set a time limit for him, Zhao Xing himself felt that time was running out.

The twenty-ninth year of the new calendar is approaching a critical point.

First, in the 30th year of the Jingxin calendar, there will be the East China Sea group stage where all beasts will compete. If you qualify, you can participate in the Four Seas competition.

If you gain a place in the Four Seas Competition, you will be able to enter the ancient land of Dragon Court.

At the same time, in the 30th year of Jingxinli, Chongming Prefecture had to promote him to the fifth rank official.

Because he had received excellent performance evaluations for ten consecutive years, and his performance far exceeded the excellent standards, he had to be promoted no matter what.

At that time, we will receive another baptism of the country's fortune.

But at the same time, he will also enter the dangerous line of fifth-rank official.

Both the Liang Wang party and the external forces will pay attention to him.

It is autumn now, and the promotion has to be done after the Chinese New Year (Spring Festival in February), which means there is less than half a year to prepare.

They might encounter enemies both inside and outside, especially King Liang, who must have begun planning a rebellion. Zhao Xing calculated this using the Ten Thousand Year Black Tortoise and the Five Fingers of Destiny.

I have calculated many times, and no matter how I interpret the hexagram, the 30th year of Jing Xinli will be a turbulent year for me.

"Things in the world change too fast. If things get chaotic, farming will inevitably be affected. If plant troops form combat power, we can have an extra hand in preparation."

Zhao Xing drove the flying boat, and three days later, on September 26, he arrived at Jiujiang County of Chongming Prefecture.

The entrance to Jiujiang Dongtian is in the eastern part of the county town.

The reason why the entrance to the cave is inside the county town, and not like the entrance to the Shiyang Cave which is located in the mountains outside the city, is mainly because of the special nature of the Jiujiang Cave.

It is also a movable door entrance, similar to the Xingxu Realm.

It’s just that Jiujiang Cave Heaven is in the middle stage of the small world and is very stable internally.

Thousands of years ago, the entrance to Jiujiang Cave was not in Jiujiang County, and this place was not called Jiujiang County.

It was Emperor Wen who moved the entrance from Yuanpin Prefecture. The purpose of deploying it here was to increase the military strength in the eastern part of Pinghai Prefecture.

It’s just that the reign of Emperor Wen was relatively peaceful, and the aquatic creatures all admired his kindness, so basically nothing major happened in the East China Sea.

Jiujiang Dongtian did not play its military role, but instead became a rich material storage station over time.

If you want to buy seafood from the East China Sea, Jiujiang Dongtian has the most complete selection.

It is also a large transfer station in the military community. Basically, anything that can be bought with money can be bought here.

After sitting in the living room of the Louchuan Division in the east of the county city for a while, he saw a burly general wearing light armor and a long sword at his waist walking quickly towards him.

"Marquis Yuan Rang, it's my fault for keeping you waiting for so long." The general bowed.

"General Fang, you're welcome. In fact, I just arrived a while ago." Zhao Xing stood up.

The person who came was Fang Ze from the Jiujiang Army. For the past eight years, the war horses trained by the Longma Prison have been transported to the Xuanjia Army, Wuluo Army and Jiujiang Army.

Among them, the person in charge of contacting Zhao Xing in the Jiujiang Army was Fang Ze, a fifth-rank military general.

"Marquis Yuan Rang, please follow me." Fang Ze knew Zhao Xing's character, so he didn't say too much politeness and took him directly to Jiujiang Dongtian.

"please."

Zhao Xing is not a soldier now. According to normal procedures, if he wants to enter the military world, he needs to go through the process and wait for the local government to submit it to the military world for approval.

After all, the military world is equivalent to the military camp of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, and non-military personnel cannot enter at will.

But with Fang Ze leading the way, things would be different.

He was taken directly through the Jiujiang Army’s exclusive passage.

After entering through a hundred-meter-high gate, we arrived at the bank of a big river.

Not far from the river is Jiujiang Military City.

The layout inside is similar to that of Yangcheng, because the construction layout of military cities has unified regulations.

The difference from Shiyang Cave Heaven is that the weather and location here are very stable, the four seasons are like spring, and it is very comfortable once you come in.

"Marquis Yuan Rang, this is the Longjiang Inn that our army has arranged for you."

"It's very close to the Bingjie Neiku, less than thirty miles away."

"It's also very close to the dojo, less than twenty miles away."

"Whether you want to go shopping or go to the dojo for a sparring match, it's very convenient."

"If Marquis Yuan Rang wants to visit my Jiujiang military camp, with this token, you can go anywhere." Fang Ze handed Zhao Xing a token engraved with the word "Fang" with full of hope.

"Thank you, General Fang." Zhao Xing accepted the token.

"The Jiujiang City Sinong Supervisor also has four departments: Tianshi, Dili, Taicang, and Pinghuai."

"There are also precious places such as the Solar Terms Monument, the Original Dojo, the Seventy-two Underground Palaces, and the Mysterious Earth Prison."

"If Marquis Yuan Rang is free, he can go to our army's Sinong training camp and give some pointers." Fang Ze said expectantly, "It would be even better if you could give them a lesson."

Mr. Zhao didn't have the time to do that. He took the token, said a few perfunctory words, and sent Fang Ze away.

After getting familiar with the venue, Zhao Xing took out the ground mirror and bought a fifth-level seed on it.

Now, he has the third-level pure soil, which can grow up to the seventh-level plant life.

However, the soil is already planted with plankton vines, a major consumer of resources, so it is impossible to plant other high-level plants, otherwise it will affect the growth of plankton.

After all, Plankton can grow naturally to the ninth level.

Of course, priority is given to its growth.

Liu Tianning also knew this, and set Zhao Xing's goal to be the fifth-level plant soldiers.

"Level 4, 5, and 6 plant soldiers, in terms of life level alone, are roughly equivalent to level 6, 5, and 4 humans."

"However, the practitioners among the human race are all strong and weak, and the classification of plant quality is more detailed." Zhao Xing browsed the ground mirror.

Shangluo Academy divides the grades of plants into one to nine grades, with super grade (rare treasures, peerless treasures).

The quality is divided into 'ordinary level', 'elite level', 'king level', 'emperor level' and 'legendary level'.

Among them, the imperial and legendary qualities generally only appear in rare treasures and peerless treasures.

If a seedling is of imperial quality, as long as it can be cultivated to maturity, it has a great possibility of surpassing the ninth level.

The floating vine given by Liu Tianning was only of king grade quality.

The reason why Lao Liu was able to raise it to a level beyond the ninth level was entirely because he had enough resources piled up to break the quality limit.

Of course, there is another sentence behind the qualities set by the ego school: all plant life has the potential to become a legend.

But just take a look at this sentence.

Ordinary quality, growth potential, at most level three.

Want to cultivate it into a legend? The human, material and financial resources consumed are a hundred times more difficult than directly cultivating a seedling of legendary quality.

“Generally speaking, choosing the corresponding quality is choosing the growth potential.”

Zhao Xing filtered out the other options and only looked at 'elite quality'.

The third-level pure soil is suitable for him to cultivate elite qualities, but it would be an overload for him to cultivate king level.

"The first-stage goal Liu Tianning set for me includes the mainstream plant arms of six categories: 'family', 'system', 'class', 'species', 'phylum', and 'genus'."

"It's called mainstream, so the total amount is not small." Zhao Xing looked carefully. "First, pick the ones with short growth cycles and easy growth."

The fastest growing plants are undoubtedly vines, bamboos, and herbaceous plants.

However, there are relatively few plants of this type that are of elite quality.

Even fewer can be used in combat.

Because it must have an 'active' effect.

"Buy these three first, as a practice."

[You purchased 30 Lightning Bamboo Seedlings, Quality: Elite Level ]

[You purchased 10 tough long vine seedlings, quality: elite level ]

[You purchased 30 psychedelic mushroom seeds, quality: elite level ]

All of them are elite level two, which means that they will be level five when they reach maturity, which corresponds to the fifth grade of humans in terms of life level.

Take [Hallucinogenic Mushrooms] for example, its poison is effective against fifth-grade items.

But if it is only the elite first level (commonly known as the fourth level), it cannot poison the fifth level.

The mushroom family is Zhao Xing’s favorite type of plant soldiers. This thing has many application scenarios and is highly operational.

After the purchase was completed, five thousand points were deducted from Zhao Xing’s balance.

Seeds and seedlings are actually quite cheap, but the cost of cultivating them is quite high.

If you just put seeds and seedlings into pure soil and leave them there, it would be equivalent to simply consuming the energy of the pure soil.

The energy level of pure soil will decrease.

In severe cases, it will return to primary soil or even decompose into gravel again.

This will cause permanent damage, and even if it is condensed into pure soil again, it will be weaker than before.

Therefore, Zhao Xing also needs to purchase other resources and bring them in together.

"Purchase 10 sixth-level crystals."

[You purchased 10 sixth-level crystals, and points were deducted. ]

Not long after I placed the order, I heard a series of tapping sounds coming from outside the yard.

When Zhao Xing walked out of the door and took a look, he was stunned. Why is it now popular for engineers to deliver goods on bamboo horses?

For a moment, he thought he had returned to the Eighteen Sophora japonica and willow courtyard and met Gao Ming delivering the goods.

"Sir, the things you asked for are here." The delivery engineer brought Zhao Xing back to reality.

"Yes." Zhao Xing waved his hand and rolled the bamboo box in from the gate of the courtyard.

The three bamboo boxes contain [Hallucinogenic Mushrooms], [Tough Long Vine], and [Lightning Bamboo].

After opening the box, Zhao Xing had an idea.

hum~
A pure Yuan projection suddenly appeared, covering the seeds and seedlings in the box.

"receive!"

The boxes were still there, but the seeds and seedlings were gone.

Zhao Xing's mind sank as he looked inward at the pure earth.

At this time, seeds and seedlings of three plants and 10 Yuan Crystals appeared in the pure Yuan soil.

As soon as they are planted, the seedlings and seeds begin to grow wildly, crossing the seedling stage and entering the growth stage at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"The pure Yuan soil has the Dao Law I comprehended engraved on it, and the Yuan Crystal provides sufficient energy, which is equivalent to automatically performing the Wasteland Condensation and Savage Growth."

Zhao Xing's mind was lifted. He didn't need to do anything next and just wait for it to mature.

Before, to cultivate plants, one had to cast spells continuously. But with pure soil, it became fully automatic. It was so easy.

"The next step is to master the manipulation spells of the Self School."

Learning magic doesn’t cost money, so Zhao Xing flew directly to the Sinongjian in Jiujiang City.

After taking out the token given by Fang Ze, Zhao Xing came to the Jiujiang Taicang courtyard.

What he was going to learn now was a spell that he had come into contact with a long time ago - [Every Tree and Grass Sees Enemies].

"Every tree and grass is an enemy. This is a spell that controls plant soldiers."

"If you want to use plants to fight, you can't do without this ego magic."

I have learned the magic of seeing enemies everywhere in the grass when I was a clerk, but at that time I was just using the characteristics of plants to draft people, which is not the real "Seeing enemies everywhere in the grass" at all.

The real magic of seeing enemies everywhere is a high-level magic.

Zhao Xing came to a mural gallery in Taicangyuan to observe.

At this time, many reserve military officials cast their eyes over.

However, they just took a quick look and continued doing their own things. They thought Zhao Xing was a teacher in Taicangyuan.

Zhao Xing sat in front of the mural, looking up and watching quietly.

"Om~"

Zhao Xing closed his eyes and then found himself in front of a bamboo forest.

At this time, a Si Nong wearing a straw raincoat, a bamboo hat and waving a staff stood in front of the bamboo forest.

"The art of seeing every tree and grass as an enemy is the top priority for our sect's Si Nong."

"If you want to turn plants into soldiers and command them at will, you must have a deep understanding of the Yin-Yang Self Sutra."

"Look, this is an elite second-level firecracker." The nameless farmer pointed at a firecracker.

"It is fully mature and has the characteristics of 'explosion'."

"Even if no one interferes, it will explode naturally when the time comes."

Then the farmer pointed to one of the firecrackers:
"After about a quarter of an hour, it will explode naturally. Watch carefully as it explodes naturally."

Zhao Xing stared attentively.

Sure enough, a quarter of an hour later, one of the firecrackers exploded at the eighteenth section.

Following this explosion, the rest of the firecrackers were immediately ignited. All thirty-eight sections of the entire firecracker were ignited, and the powerful force of fire splashed out in all directions.

Zhao Xing seemed to be thinking about something.

The nameless Si Nong pointed at another one and said, "This firecracker is far from the time to explode naturally."

"But now, I will cast the spell of "See All as an Enemy" on it and watch carefully the explosion under my control."

"Every tree and grass is an enemy. Explode!"

As the nameless minister waved the staff, the thirty-eight firecrackers began to turn red starting from the root.

Layer upon layer of fire power is transmitted from the root to the thirty-eight sections at the top.

At this time, the top section had already burned red and was emitting a blazing glow.

"boom!"

The bamboo joint at the top exploded, and a beam of red light shot forward.

"Bang!" A hundred meters ahead, a ten-meter-high boulder was instantly blown to pieces.

The direction in which it exploded was exactly the direction that the nameless Si Nong's staff was pointing!

"The timing, direction, and even power of the firecracker explosion can now be controlled!"

“This is where every tree and grass is an enemy!”

“It’s not just firecrackers, it’s the same with the rest of the plant life.”

"They are born with innate skills similar to those of exotic beasts, but the intelligence of plant life is extremely low, and they are completely unable to actively display them, so they are uncontrollable."

"Exploiting characteristics, guiding characteristics, and seizing opportunities are only the first level of control."

"The second level is control, replacing these plant lives and becoming their brains."

"Please look."

Wuming Si Nong waved his hand, and the bamboo forest behind him disappeared, and a large patch of vines appeared.

It swung its staff forward, and the vines that were originally lying on the ground all raised their heads like snakes.

Even though he had seen similar scenes countless times, Zhao Xing still felt a tingling excitement, because these vines actually started to move.

"Suosuo~"

The vines and leaves rub against the ground.

In front of it, there was a wild boar eating grass with its head down, completely unaware that the vines were surrounding it from all directions.

"This vine has great resilience. It can stretch and shrink."

"So I named this move 'Death Coil'"

Every bush and tree is an enemy, and death is entangled!

Zhao Xing was excited again because this was a classic skill of the vine system.

In this life, he finally saw such a scene again.

Hundreds of vines and branches instantly entangled the wild boar tightly.

"Whoosh~"

The wild boar weighing over a thousand kilograms was dragged away in an instant, from a hundred meters away, and arrived in front of Wuming Si Nong.

"Kakakaka~"

As Wuming Si Nong clenched his hands into fists, the vines and branches continued to tighten, and the wild boar was immediately strangled into dozens of pieces, even its bones were broken!

After the demonstration, Wuming Si Nong continued, "The first level of the grass and trees are all enemies, guidance."

"The second level, control."

"They all rely on the practice of Yin Yang Self Sutra."

Wuming Si Nong waved his hand, and at this moment, the world became transparent and illusory.

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

It formed a certain connection with the nameless Sinong.

Looking closely, Zhao Xing could see wisps of the Five Elements flowing through the vines.

"The energy of the five elements is like silk threads, intertwined with thousands of threads. So that's how it is." Zhao Xing suddenly realized.

No wonder one of the necessary conditions for pure primordial soil is the understanding of the second level of the Yin-Yang Self Sutra.

The power of the five elements is like a thread, penetrating into the body of plant life. In this way, the plant life can be controlled to fully bring out its characteristics.

This is how control is achieved.

"It is similar to the principle of the straw man method, except that the straw man method is more complicated and more lexical."

"As for plant soldiers, they are more inclined to the talents of plant life itself."

Zhao Xing himself had studied the Straw Man Technique, so when he saw it, he understood why the Straw Man Technique was placed in the category of [Every Tree and Grass Sees Enemies].

"The third level, where everything looks like an enemy, is also the ultimate goal of the ego faction."

The nameless Si Nong waved his hand, and another scene appeared around him.

Another shadow appeared next to him.

Next to the shadow is a golden bean field.

It walked into the bean field, picked up a handful of bean seeds, then spread out its palms and blew a breath.

Call ~
Dozens of bean seeds suddenly turned into dozens of soldiers wearing golden armor.

"What is presented to you now is an image that has been passed down from ancient times."

"It records the legendary magical power - turning beans into soldiers."

"It is also the third level of the grass and trees are all enemies, giving them spirits."

"We should study hard and practice diligently to reproduce the supreme magical powers of our ancient sect."

The scene ends here.

Zhao Xing opened his eyes again.

"I didn't expect that the Self Sect already had the concept of supernatural powers during this period, and even retained the images passed down from the last spiritual era. This is really not easy." Zhao Xing said in his heart.

There are very few things that have been passed down from the last spiritual era, and because it was too long ago and impossible to cultivate, they have gradually become legends.

"The Straw Man Method and the Mountain Method both need the Spiritual Energy Era to regain their true glory. As time passes, the power of these spells will be further enhanced."

"It will be enough for me to learn to the second level." Zhao Xing said secretly.

It is impossible to recreate the Yuanqi era.

Unless he can find a large amount of spiritual energy, but if there is a large amount of spiritual energy, he will use it to improve the level of pure soil, and it is impossible to use it to practice the third level of seeing enemies everywhere.

The third level is called spiritualization. How to bestow it without spiritual energy?

To cultivate mountain spirits and wild monsters, one needs to enter the spiritual era before there is a chance.

How much spiritual energy is left in the Xuanhuang Realm?

Zhao Xing shook his head: "That rain was the last glory, and it will also be the last time the spiritual energy of the Xuanhuang Realm will revive."

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

[Every Tree and Grass Seems Like an Enemy: Advanced Spell]

[Effect: Use your own understanding of the Great Dao to guide and control the plant soldiers to release their true characteristics.]

[Progress: Advanced Sixth Level]

"When you reach the second level of the Yin-Yang Self Sutra, the sixth level is achieved when you comprehend the spell of seeing enemies everywhere."

However, this spell needs to be adapted to the characteristics of plant life itself.

How powerful it is depends entirely on the plant army.

The first two levels of this spell focus on the type of troops rather than the people.

After learning the advanced version of "Every Tree and Grass Sees Enemies", all that's left is to wait for the plant troops to mature and conduct actual combat exercises.

"Besides that, we will cultivate derivative species once we are proficient in them."

"The cultivation of derivative species is also the top priority of the Self Sect's Agriculture."

“The Grass Man Method can combine many methods into one, and the derivative species is to integrate the characteristics of multiple plant lives.”

Zhao Xing couldn't help but think of the mushroom species he had chosen.

Firecrackers + hallucinogenic mushrooms, plus a layer of invisibility, are a must-have for sneaking up on people.

"It explodes when you step on it, and then it sprays out hallucinogenic poisonous gas. It is absolutely invincible in positional warfare. I just don't know if it can be used in the Ten Thousand Beasts Competition."

Zhao Xing felt that he would be beaten if he did this, but he did not tell Si Nong not to use the spells of his profession when he was a beastmaster.

…………

Time passed, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.

At this time, the three plants had all matured on the first day, but Zhao Xing's practice of [Every Tree and Grass Sees Enemies] took some time.

"Pure Yuan Projection!"

Buzz~ A shadow of soil descended, and the surrounding ground, more than three thousand square meters, was covered by the shadow.

30 Lightning Bamboos, 10 Tough Long Vines, and Psychedelic Mushrooms appeared.

Zhao Xing took the plant version of the business scale and scanned the three plants.

Get details soon.

【Name: Lightning Bamboo】

[Quality: Elite Level 2]

【Status: Mature】

[Features: The power of thunder; each node of the Lightning Bamboo stores thunder. The minimum standard for a mature Lightning Bamboo is thirty-six nodes. This Lightning Bamboo has a total of forty-five nodes.]

[Comprehensive evaluation: Fifth-class top grade]

……

[Name: Tough Long Vine]

[Quality: Elite Level 2]

【Status: Mature】

[Features: Double toughness, free expansion and contraction; the tough vine is extremely tough, and even a fifth-level divine weapon cannot cut it off with one blow. Its natural length is one kilometer, and it can be stretched to twice its maximum length, and can be contracted to a hundred meters at its shortest. The longest length of this tough vine is one thousand five hundred meters, and its expansion and contraction is more than twice the average value.]

[Comprehensive evaluation: Fifth-class top grade]

…………

【Name: Psychedelic Mushrooms】

[Quality: Elite Level 2]

【Status: Mature】

[Features: Hallucinogenic toxins; hallucinogenic mushrooms can explode and splash, emitting poisonous gas. If inhaled or stuck to the skin, they will have a poisoning effect on the target and cause severe hallucinations. The toxins in this mushroom exceed the average by 80%.]

[Comprehensive evaluation: Fifth-class top grade]

"The characteristics of the three types of plant soldiers are far above average."

"This is because my Moment Origin makes the upper limit of their characteristics become higher." Zhao Xing said secretly.

However, he also consumed a Yuan Crystal worth 60,000, which was most of his monthly salary.

Of course, he could also not use the Yuan Crystal and wait for the pure Yuan soil to recover naturally.

The rich have their own way of training, and the poor have their own way of training.

Now Zhao Xing is a wealthy man, so he naturally doesn't care about a mere 60,000 yuan.

"Every tree and grass is an enemy. Lightning!"

Zhao Xing stretched out his hand and pointed, and the twenty-meter-high lightning bamboo shot out a total of forty-five lightning bolts in the direction he pointed!

Each bolt of lightning is equivalent to a full-strength attack from a fifth-grade late-stage thunder sorcerer.

Thirty lightning bamboos released all their energy in an instant.

1350 bolts of lightning instantly enveloped the area a thousand meters ahead.

Thunder washes the ground!

It blew up a huge hole a thousand meters away!
Zhao Xing sensed the state of the lightning bamboo, thought about it for a while, and came up with the calculation result.

"It will take about half a day to accumulate the power of thunder again."

It's powerful, but its flaws are also obvious.

With 1350 thunderbolts striking down at the same time, Zhao Xing’s all-powerful Taoist body would feel the pain.

The warrior's defense is strong enough, and even if he has reached the fifth level of golden bones, he will probably be seriously injured in this wave.

Of course, the drawback is that the cooling time is too long, and it takes half a day to recover, which means that after fighting this wave, Lightning Bamboo will have to withdraw from the battlefield.

"This problem will be solved after Chunyuan Tudi continues to upgrade and expand in scale."

"If it is level 4 pure essence soil, the recovery speed of this batch of lightning bamboo will be reduced to within two quarters of an hour. If the quality is improved by one level, its nourishment capacity will increase by dozens of times."

"Also, if the scale of the Lightning Bamboo is expanded and the number is large enough, we can rotate in batches. When the last group finishes the attack, the first group will resume. We can achieve a non-stop attack."

"Moreover, I can move their positions." Zhao Xing thought.

Thirty lightning bamboos appeared a hundred meters away.

It was not the lightning bamboo that was moving, but the characteristics of the pure soil. It could move like quicksand, and at a very fast speed.

"This is like having a mobile army of plants by my side, and they will absolutely obey my orders, because I am the general of these armies. The combat effectiveness of the armies depends entirely on whether I, as the general, can control the combination of so many arms."

The deep pit created by the explosion exposed a lot of rocks. He controlled the tough long vine to stretch out, dragged the boulder back, and built a stone wall in front of the lightning bamboo.

Zhao Xing smiled slightly when he saw this: "Either you can't practice the ego school, or if you practice it, you will be a god-defying existence."

"There are only 30 strains now. If there are 3, 30... or even a million strains bombarding together, it would be like thunder washing the ground, with the power of annihilation. With a wave of the hand, a city would be razed to the ground."

Of course, it is still difficult to reach a scale of millions.

If there is no Xuanhuang Xiyuan Technique, there is no way to create a plant army in the Yuanqi Era. The pure Yuan soil simply cannot bear such a burden and will be directly crushed.

"Bang!" The hallucinogenic mushrooms exploded.

Zhao Xing walked over, inhaled some poison gas, and then his face turned green.

"Hiss, it's better not to use myself as a test. I actually saw Fang Ze coming out without clothes on. It's really an eye-opener..." Zhao Xing muttered to himself.

Fang Ze flew to Zhao Xing with a strange look on his face and said, "Brother, what are you doing? Why are you looking at me so strangely? Is there something on my face?"

"No." Zhao Xing glanced away, "Brother Fang, what's the matter?"

"I came here after hearing the noise." Fang Ze pointed to the large pit around him. "Brother, if you want to practice, you still have to go to the dojo. After all, this is where you live and it's public property."

If he damages it, Zhao Xing will not be asked to pay for it, but the impact of disturbing the neighbors will be bad.

The thunder explosion just now scared the six or seven-level residents around, and they thought that the evil sect had sneaked into Jiujiang Cave to cause trouble.

"Okay, I was inconsiderate and made you laugh, Brother Fang."

"In the past, this would be a small matter, you can practice as you like." Fang Ze said. "But you also know that after the Shiyang Cave Heaven incident, the rules and regulations in the cave heaven have become stricter."

"I understand." Zhao Xing had experienced that incident before, so of course he knew it clearly.

"But you're amazing for making such a big noise, brother." Fang Ze looked at the big pit and took two steps forward. "You blew up the stone foundation. The foundation of Jiujiang Pavilion was specially strengthened by the magic array master."

"Hey, how come there's a beauty here? Huh? Why does she have the face of Jiang Wuhou... Damn, who the hell are you?"

Zhao Xing: "..."

Seeing Fang Ze drawing his sword and slashing at the air, Zhao Xing couldn't help but laugh or cry.

Did this guy see Jiang Wuhou dressed as a woman or something? No wonder he reacted so strongly.

He quickly put away the Chun Yuan Projection to prevent the old man from stepping on a few more mushrooms.

After a moment of confusion, Fang Ze and Zhao Xing came to their senses. They stared at each other, feeling very embarrassed.

"Ahem... I have something else to do, so I won't accompany Brother Zhao any longer."

"Well, I have to go to the dojo as well. See you, Brother Fang."

The two people separated quickly in embarrassment.

Zhao Xing came to the Taoist temple in Jiujiang Dongtian.

"Old Liu asked me to become the first person in the middle-grade realm of Pinghaizhou in the second stage."

"I don't know who this 'Cai Tingzhi' is, but his rating is as high as level seven, six stars." Zhao Xing looked at the ranking of the dojo.

What he checked was the list of middle-ranking Si-nong in the Pinghaizhou Dojo.

The first place winner is Cai Tingzhi, whose dojo score is as high as a terrifying 75231 points!
The same is true for the number of wins, but his total number of games is only 76081.
Up to 99% winning rate!
Dojo rating: It has also reached the terrifying seventh level and six stars!

What does this mean? Level 7 is already a high-level strength!

The seventh rank and six stars meant that he had won many battles in the third level realm.

"The No. 1 middle-grade Si Nong in Pinghai Prefecture is probably close to the second-grade level."

It is shown above that Cai Tingzhi was a fourth-rank minister of agriculture. His record of military success should have been achieved by defeating countless third-rank officials.

"I don't know which sect Cai Tingzhi belongs to." Zhao Xing thought. "But if he doesn't break through, I will have to fight him sooner or later."

After all, the goal set by Lao Liu was to become the number one Si Nong in the middle-level realm of Pinghai Prefecture.

"The second place Lan Caiyue also has a 99% win rate. Her points are slightly lower than Cai Tingzhi's, only a hundred points behind. She is also a level seven, six stars."

Zhao Xing looked at it for a while and then closed the ranking.

He has just entered the fifth rank and is no match for these veteran Si Nong who have been famous for a long time.

There are heroes all over the world like carp crossing the river. Zhao Xing never looks down on others. Not to mention those far away, Mi Fu is also a fifth-rank official. It would be difficult for him to defeat him now.

Because he had been immersed in the fifth level for decades, Mi Fu was proficient in everything, including the Hou Bian Fa, the Wanfa Cao Ren, and the Chun Yuan Soil.

He is a genius who can create the Xuanhuang Xiyuan Technique!

If he didn't have some skills, he would have been beaten up long ago with his offensive personality.

Zhao Xing chatted with Old Man Mickey and learned that his Wanfa Straw Man was created under duress.

There's nothing we can do. There are too many people who want him dead.

Mi Fu was also a man who fought hard against being crowned king. When King Sulin invited him to celebrate the birthday of his junior, he pointed at the other person's nose and scolded him.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye it was October 8th of the 29th year of the Jingxin calendar.

Zhao Xing has been in Jiujiang Taoist Temple for ten days.

In a primeval forest.

"Buzz~" Zhao Xing walked out from a willow tree.

He stretched his body and then put his hands on the tree trunk.

The next moment, he walked out from another pine tree a thousand meters away.

The spell he was practicing now was a new advanced spell of the Ego School called [Jungle Jump].

This is a wood escape technique that allows him to escape to another location as long as there is living grass or trees.

[Jungle Jump: High-level Spell]

[Progress: Advanced Level 4]

[Effect: Travel among plants and trees, each travel distance is 4,000 meters, and travel must be based on the life of living plants and trees.]

"I've reached the fourth level of advanced level, and the progress is pretty good." Zhao Xing smiled slightly.

"Compared to other Wood Release Techniques, Jungle Jump requires living plants and trees."

“It’s farther, though, and faster.”

"At the advanced fourth level, one can travel four thousand meters in an instant, and at perfection, one can travel ten thousand meters in an instant."

"But the cost is quite high, unless I am willing to transfer the cost to plant life."

Zhao Xing looked at a willow tree beside him. It was completely dead.

This was because he had consumed all the vitality of the willow tree when he escaped just now.

"If we are in a forest and someone is chasing us, the path I have taken will prevent others from escaping."

"As long as there is a primeval forest, my escape speed can be comparable to Liu Tianning flying in the sky with his normal float."

Of course, this spell has great limitations and can only be performed in large tracts of primeval forest.

When one reaches perfection in practice, one can travel ten thousand meters in an instant, but the range at a time can only be ten thousand meters. If the next tree is ten thousand meters away, the escape method will not work.

Another problem is excessive consumption. Now the willow tree next to Zhao Xing is at level five. This is the training place he specially selected, so he can transfer the cost to the willow tree.

But in actual combat, where would there be so many fifth-level trees for him to escape? He would have to bear the consumption himself.

You have to rely on yourself. You have to stop and rest when you travel thousands of miles.

"Switch to the fifth-grade shooting range training." Zhao Xing jumped onto the floating stone platform and selected a new training scene in the ground mirror.

"Whoosh~" The suspended stone platform carried Zhao Xing flying in the fog.

In less than a minute, it stopped again.

The surrounding fog dissipated, revealing a wasteland below.

There are many machine gun targets around the wasteland.

Some float in the sky, and some stand on the ground.

There are movable targets and fixed targets.

[You have entered the fifth-grade training range, which has a total of 12,000 targets.]

[This training ground charges 500 points for every quarter of an hour, and any time less than a quarter of an hour will be counted as a quarter of an hour.]

"It's so expensive." Zhao Xing couldn't help but complain. Four thousand points for one hour, and forty-eight thousand points for twelve hours.

A fifth-grade soldier would lose a month’s salary if he trained here for just one day.

However, there is a reason for its high price. All the mechanical targets in the shooting range are of top quality.

Thirty percent of the targets here are humanoid mechanical puppets, all of which have fifth-grade combat power and a wide range of defense types, including the five elements of wind and thunder.

Even if you break it you don't have to pay for it.

"Pure Yuan Projection!"

"Om~"

Plants suddenly appeared around Zhao Xing. Compared with ten days ago, the number of plants in his pure soil had greatly increased.

Among them, the number of lightning bamboos increased to 100, the number of tough long vines increased to 30, and the number of hallucinogenic mushrooms was the largest, having expanded to more than !

"I order all humanoid targets to attack me!"

"If you touch me, the training will stop." Zhao Xing shouted to the sky.

Just when he was training in Jiujiang Dojo.

Gemini Islands, on the sea three hundred miles away.

"Wow~"

A whirlpool appeared on the sea surface, and a black warship like a ghost emerged from under the sea.

On the deck of the warship stood a man wearing black and gold armor, a green fang helmet, and holding a spear.

Behind him was a warrior wearing armor and holding a sharp blade.

The team was in uniform order, with a black aura gathering above their heads.

"General Jinhou, which island are we attacking this time?" asked the adjutant next to him.

Their actions are quite secretive, and they only know who the target of the mission is when the action is about to begin.

General Jinmao stretched out his hand, revealing a hairy palm: "Bring me the map, let's see where we have sneaked to."

"Yes." The adjutant immediately handed over the map. The map was simple and primitive, completely hand-drawn without any magical fluctuations.

In addition, the text above is different from the elegant text of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is crooked. If Zhao Xing sees it, he will find that it is actually the snake script of the countries in the Eastern Wilderness.

General Jinmao's eyes swept across the islands marked on the map. He tapped the Twin Islands with his finger and said, "These islands are weak. Why are they specially marked?"

The adjutant replied, "Sir, this map was given to us by the Liang Wang faction of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The islands marked with red circles are their political enemies."

"I see." Jin Maw pointed at the map, "Then let's attack this place first."

　Two bumps appeared on my head, and it was numb and itchy. Qidian also required us to meet the grade standards by the end of the month, which made me extremely anxious.

　　The updates have been unstable recently, so please bear with me. 34 words have been updated this month, and I am almost done with the overdue updates.

　　The pressure to update next month will not be that great and the schedule will be more stable.
