Ch. 255A tremendous improvement! How would the Five Elements Paper Diagram fight?

Su Ping tested the evolved Five Elements Paper Diagram and discovered it could build energy to an Emperor Tier level before considering how its folding ability could be used in combat. He used it as an underwater life jacket to visit the Rainbow Coral Polyp, while Huang Tianbing grew restless after waiting five days for Su Ping’s reply.

  • Su Ping and the others tested the Commander Tier Seven Five Elements Paper Diagram, which completed four and a half Greater Celestial Circuits and reached an energy value of 63,957.

  • Sang Sage accompanied Su Ping across the East Sea, explaining that she was guarding him against possible assassins and sharing Lord Sacred Dragon’s limited findings about the fire Phoenix.
  • Sang Sage said the fire Phoenix had likely appeared thousands of years ago, prompting Su Ping to wonder whether ancient energy had caused the Dark Flame Ancient Crow’s evolution and might also exist in his Beast Taming Space.

  • Su Ping learned that the team planned to lure aquatic beasts with fishy aromatic oil and watched them prepare to fight.
  • The chumming drew a huge swarm of Blackwater Mystic Snakes, including dozens of Monarch Rank beasts, which overwhelmed the team's guns and beasts.
  • The Celestial Observatory leader ordered the group to retreat and told Su Ping to open the spatial vortex and leave first.

Ch. 263The pinnacle of the Five Elements! A Super-Rank Skill emerges!

Su Ping, Zhu Hong, and Liu Fuhai tested the assembled Five Elements Paper Diagram and pushed its energy cycle past five Greater Celestial Circuits. As the perfected cycle began releasing surplus elemental energy, the Paper Diagram glowed with a new light, signaling that its Super-Rank Skill might have awakened.

  • Su Ping joined Zhu Hong and Liu Fuhai in the laboratory to test the assembled Five Elements Paper Diagram, while Big Yellow reluctantly agreed to stand by after Zhu Hong promised his evolution was near.
  • The Five Elements Paper Diagram completed five Greater Celestial Circuits, with each cycle increasing its energy until it reached a value of 73958.
  • Su Ping proposed continuing the cycle so the Diagram could release excess energy after its power reached its limit, and Zhu Hong and Liu Fuhai agreed to proceed.
  • The Diagram began releasing surplus elemental energy, first forming earth spikes that pierced the laboratory walls.

Ch. 265Perfecting External Incarnation!

Su Ping converted Paper-Folding Man Record experience into general experience and used it to perfect the External Incarnation breeding method after researching other Super-Rank Skills. Meanwhile, Zhu Hong told the Lord Sacred Dragon about Su Ping’s new Five Elements skill, and the Dragon Nation’s leader arranged a discreet reward for him.

Ch. 266A novel approach to skill cultivation!

Su Ping reviewed the demanding cultivation method for the Super-Rank skill External Incarnation and realized it could be performed during a pet beast’s first evolution. He planned to use it to cultivate Xiao Qing, sought the Xue Family’s descendants to repay his debt to Xue Hongluan, and decided to test Qianyi’s Five Elements Body control before proceeding.

  • Su Ping spoke with Lu Heng about organizing and training the Forest Wolves, then watched the evolved Elf Wolves in Woodheart’s Jungle.
  • Su Ping studied the Myriad Spirits Codex’s External Incarnation method, which required a qualifying unborn pet beast or one undergoing its first evolution, rare resources, and help from the Mirror Reflecting the Myriad Heavens.
  • Su Ping realized that the method’s difficult preparations did not prevent him from using it to cultivate Xiao Qing, since the Breeder Association had Soul-Luring Lampwick available for redemption.
  • Su Ping called Dong Muyun and asked her to locate the present-day descendants of the Xue Family of Hongdu, preferably direct descendants, so he could repay part of his debt to Xue Hongluan.
  • Su Ping decided to test Qianyi’s control and compatibility with the Five Elements Body before cultivating Xiao Qing, and thought of Lady Sang Sage as a possible place to do it.

After learning how the legendary resource could be caught, he kept his own connection to it secret and grew eager to travel to Beiyuan.

  • Little Crow gathered the birds he had rescued in the Hundred-Bird Parasol Tree, and Su Ping planned to train them inside his Beast Taming Space using Home of Myriad Spirits.
  • Zhu Hong offered to design a bird-breeding base for the Heart of Myriad Spirits and said Big Yellow would finish evolving in about a fortnight.
  • After hearing how Big Yellow’s earth and wood attributes supported his evolution, Su Ping asked Zhu Hong about developing Xiao Qing’s wood and poison attributes.
  • Zhu Hong explained that suitable Emperor Tier resources could help Xiao Qing evolve and described jade demon spring ginseng, a legendary wood-and-poison resource that could be trapped in a golden vessel.
