Shennong Daojun

Following the straw man to the mountainside, the terrain became flat, and a palace appeared in front of it. Multiple pieces of land were opened around it, filled with flowers, plants and trees, ranging from the second to the fourth level.

That's the good thing about Sinong. It's quite easy to carry out large-scale construction projects. As long as the Sinong is a little more powerful, it's up to you whether the place you live in is luxurious or not, but it's definitely big.

Walking along the bluestone road, there is a plantation outside the palace.

There are straw men digging the ground with hoes, straw men using saws to cut trees, and straw men walking past with a bundle of firewood on their backs.

Entering the palace wall, there are straw men on the school grounds wielding swords, guns, swords and halberds to chop at each other.

Passing by a pond, there was a grass man fishing by the water.

Walking through a verandah, a straw man suddenly emerged from the ground, holding a golden stone in his hand.

In the pavilion in the distance, there is a straw man holding a scroll and reading.

Even though Zhao Xing was well-informed, he felt a little numb when he saw this scene.

Because these straw men, without exception, all look like Liu Tianning!

Not only that, some of the "Liu Tianning" look very strange, with broken arms and legs, and some don't even have heads, but they are still walking.

Although the appearance is the same, some 'Liu Tianning' have a cold temperament, some have a sunny temperament, and some look silly or even crazy.

"Fifth-grade Sinong, who has reached the Pure Yuan Realm, has sufficient vitality. It's okay to support so many straw men, but Liu Tianning is so obsessed with the straw man method, and he makes them look like himself..."

Zhao Xing suspected that there was something wrong with the big man's mind.

Either a genius, a madman, or a genius-level madman!

When they came to a palace, hundreds of people had gathered in the square.

Zhao Xing's arrival did not attract the slightest attention.

Because these people are watching the straw man.

"This place is called the Palace of Ten Thousand Dharmas. I perform Ten Thousand Dharmas with a straw man, all year round."

"In the Acting Square, there are eighteen kinds of intermediate straw man techniques, which are not promoted by the imperial court."

"You can observe and learn by yourself here, or you can go to various parts of the palace to observe."

"If you want to get reward points, you need to master an intermediate straw man method and practice it to the fourth level."

"If you pass the third level test, you can get 800 points."

"One month later, there will be a straw man competition for ranking, and the first place will get 50,000 points."

"Do you have any questions?" the straw man asked.

"No more." Zhao Xing shook his head.

"If you have any questions, you can come here and ask." Liu Tianning said with a smile, "If you just want to ask for directions, just look for the straw man with the word "Liu" on his body."

"Yes." Zhao Xing cupped his hands.

Then the straw man turned around and left, blending into the vast crowd of straw men. After a while, he couldn't tell which one was leading him just now.

Zhao Xing did not immediately go to understand, but first looked around.

Most of the straw men move according to a fixed trajectory. For example, those who hoe the ground keep hoeing, and those who water the flowers keep watering the flowers.

These are Fuxingcao people. They can only act according to fixed instructions, but they are completely different from what Zhao Xing himself knows. The operation of the five elements in their bodies is very subtle.

There are also some straw men who have a high degree of freedom. Not only can they speak, they can also see and hear.

They all have the word "willow" on their clothes.

"Wanfa Palace, Wanfa Palace...it turns out that he is the Liu Banfeng from Emperor Wu's period."

"There are so many straw men, no wonder he is crazy. From now on, he has created so many straw men..." A trace of shock flashed in Zhao Xing's eyes.

He met a familiar figure.

Although Liu Tianning looks similar now to later, his sinister and crazy temperament is completely different from now.

So Zhao Xing didn't recognize it either.

He didn't remember Liu Tianning's name, but he remembered his nickname and characteristics.

Now that he heard about Wanfa Palace, he remembered it.

Liu Tianning shocked the world with his straw man method. During the reign of Emperor Wu, he was a second-grade transport envoy, responsible for the supply of food and grass for the ten forbidden armies.

He is not in charge of a certain Forbidden Army, but he is responsible for the food and fodder of the ten Forbidden Army.

In addition, Liu Tianning is also the "Inspector of the Three Armies", and he has personally given him the most precious nine-section staff. If any army sergeant below the fourth rank does anything illegal, Liu Tianning can kill him first and then report him.

At his peak, Liu Tianning was responsible for more than 100,000 troops, and his power radiated to the four major barbarian conquering armies.

His marching hall is called the Palace of Ten Thousand Dharmas, and his magic method is unparalleled in the world.

It is Si Nong who controls the straw men the most, no one can compare with him.

Therefore, the scope and quantity that Emperor Wu gave him to govern were quite large.

"During the first conquest of the barbarians, Liu Tianning became crazy. In the later stages of the conquest, more than a million Sinong died in his hands, and more than 200 Wuhou died in his hands."

As for the players? There are too many to count. Zhao Xing has been beheaded by Liu Tianning's straw men several times.

Why behead? Most of them were wrongly accused or implicated on groundless suspicions. By the end of the first conquest, Liu Tianning had also been nicknamed Half-Crazy. Facts have proved that he did have a mental problem.

Later, he was dismissed from his post and transferred to the 'Zaihua Taoist Temple', where he was occasionally sober and occasionally crazy.

Normal teaching couldn't be done, so Emperor Wu had no choice but to send him to the blessed land of Lingshan to guard the mountain for rest.

Mi Fu was hired to replace Liu Tianning.

"Liu Tianning must have practiced internal transformation and studied the self-grass man crazily. He is now a fifth-rank agricultural official. Even if he studies by himself, he will not be higher than the fourth-rank Yuanpo realm due to the influence of the Qiyun Dynasty system. He is not even at the third-rank 'Yuanhun' realm. He has so many straw men... If you are not crazy, who is crazy?"

What is the 'self-grass man'?

The self-grass man is also called the clone straw man and the all-purpose straw man.

Among the straw man methods, it belongs to the high-level method.

It focuses on strong control and strong expansion.

Based on the three straw man methods of reconnaissance, re-travel and great power, the caster can use the straw man as a clone, talk, observe, and even fight.

What is strong control? The self-grass man can do too many things, just like a second body. The other straw man methods can't do this at all.

Strong expansion means that it can integrate all the straw man methods!

For example, Zhao Xing can now perform the ‘God-like Straw Man’ and ‘Strong Straw Man’. If he continues to study, he can achieve ‘two methods in one’, and the ‘God-like Straw Man with Strength’, or three or four methods in one.

But the other Straw Man methods can only be combined into three or four methods at most. The Ten Thousand Laws Straw Man is based on the ‘self’, and its internal five elements operation mechanism is completely imitated from itself. In theory, it can be infinitely integrated.

The Ten Thousand Laws Straw Man is also the ultimate goal of the Straw Man School - to accommodate all laws, and even the three souls!

The body withers, but the three souls are replaced by the Straw Man, and then they will be immortal! Live forever!

The ideas of the Self School have always been bolder, and the Straw Man School is the most delusional among them!

Putting aside these illusory ideals, the Self Straw Man is also a heavy burden on the mind, and over time it may even cause irreparable damage to the soul, because in order to control tens of thousands of ‘self Straw Man’, it is necessary to practice the ‘Soul Division Method’ to split the soul to strengthen the mind’s control over the Straw Man.

Every time the Wanfa Strawman combines a method, the higher the requirements for the soul, the greater the burden on the mind.

How many straw men did Liu Tianning control at that time?

"He didn't catch up with the later recovery period, and couldn't break that layer of shackles, so that his mind could transform into divine thoughts, and the three souls could be promoted. It's natural that he would go crazy if he relied on the protection of the Palace of Life alone."

"Liu Tianning should be invited to Shiyang Cave Heaven. This guy should be normal now... right?"

"I have to avoid this guy in the future. I can't be chopped off in this life." Zhao Xing shrank his head. He only has one life now, and this guy was favored by the Emperor Wu at his peak. Even the princes and princes would chop him off at will.

…………

After observing for a while, Zhao Xing began to look for straw men in the performance square to observe and comprehend.

The straw man methods that Zhao Xing learned in Gucheng before were all at the elementary level.

The elementary straw man methods are more demanding on "materials".

For example, a powerful straw man made of ordinary rice stalks may not be able to beat an adult man.

It can only drive away grain-eating birds.

But if it is made of diamond bamboo, the powerful straw man will be very powerful, comparable to the strength of a qualified warrior.

Of course, the powerful diamond has simple actions and no skills, just rushing around.

The straw man method relies on the number of piles, and the main point is "rushing forward".

But the intermediate straw man method is different.

It emphasizes the method and the materials.

The materials can increase the upper limit, and the power and effect of the spell are also very high.

For example, what Zhao Xing is observing now.

"Invisible straw man."

Zhao Xing touched a ball of air. Although there was nothing in front of him, his hand touched the soft straw.

"Even the most common first-level grass material can make the straw man invisible. This is the effect of the law."

"The invisible straw man is essentially practicing the 'invisibility law', using the power of the five elements to hide."

"But hiding a person is much more difficult than hiding a dead object."

The 'invisibility law' practiced by the human race is a high-level law, because people are alive, and their life fluctuations, blood fluctuations, vitality fluctuations, and five-element power fluctuations are all very complex and changing rapidly. How to hide?

But relying on straw men is only a mid-level law, and straw men only involve 'five-element power fluctuations'.

It is easier to use it to deceive the enemy.

"The invisible straw man is combined with the reconnaissance straw man, and the mid-level law is combined with the low-level law. It is relatively easy to use it for reconnaissance, which is both secretive and does not require risk."

"If it can be combined with the magic straw man law, the three laws will be combined into one, and it will be the best scout."

The invisible straw man is walking back and forth, and it repeatedly walks back and forth in the flower beds, squares, and soil around the square.

In order to facilitate the learners' comprehension, this invisible straw man is constantly adjusting his position.

Using the Clear Observation and Five Elements Observation, Zhao Xing can clearly see its existence and observe its internal changes.

"Integrate into the five elements between heaven and earth, and change with the changes in the environment."

Zhao Xing also walked back and forth with the invisible straw man.

About a quarter of an hour later, the invisible straw man automatically disintegrated and turned into a pile of straw scattered on the ground.

But soon a golden light flew out of the palace and fell on the straw.

"Buzz~"

The scattered straw men reassembled and slowly formed an invisible straw man step by step.

When the last step was completed, the straw man was completely invisible.

Zhao Xing looked at it once and had a vague understanding.

Because his Mingmu method has been cultivated to the intermediate level, and the Five Elements Observation has also been advanced to the intermediate level, this method is called Five Elements Observation until the high level.

[Clear Observation] is combined with [Five Elements Observation].

Zhao Xing was looking at the essence of the invisible straw man. As for the weaving steps, they were secondary and could be mastered by just taking a casual look.

"The competition for ranking after the third level is probably a test. Although the invisible straw man has no combat effectiveness, this method cannot be missed."

"Learn it and it will be easier to learn the 'invisibility method' in the future."

There is an invisible straw man in "Liu Bian Chuan Fa" taught by Xue Wenzhong.

Zhao Xing watched Xue Wenzhong demonstrate it at the time, but he couldn't learn it at the time and just wrote it down.

Looking back now, he found that there was a big difference between Lao Sinong and Liu Tianning.

Old Sinong himself was only at the ninth level. He learned this method from the heretic of 'weaving', and used a method without making any mistakes to stabilize the internal operation of the five elements.

But Liu Tianning's invisible straw man is a demonstration from the essence.

Even if one or two blades of grass are pulled out, it doesn't matter. Zhao Xing even vaguely felt that even if one hand was cut off, he could still remain invisible.

Old Sinong's method won't work.

The invisibility is broken when a hair falls. This cannot be blamed on Old Sinong. The main reason is that the gap between the two in their understanding of Taoism is too big.

Now Zhao Xing can be sure that Liu Tianning is an upright Taihe County native and a direct descendant of Liu Zonghai.

[Watch the straw man’s drill and learn the intermediate spell ‘Invisible Straw Man’. 】

【Invisible straw man: 1/9999】

[Efficacy: Follow the five actions and hide in the world]

"rise!"

When the straw men dispersed again, Zhao Xing did not wait for the golden light to fly out of the palace, but cast the spell himself.

"Buzz~"

The scattered grass materials were quickly combined into a shape, and a rather sloppy straw man slowly became invisible.

Why is it said scrawled? Because the head is crooked and the feet are also splayed.

But that doesn't stop it from being an invisible straw man.

"It's a bit ugly, but it's still usable."

"Take two steps."

Zhao Xing gave orders to the invisible straw man.

The straw man walked unsteadily.

"There are still some problems."

Zhao Xing was thoughtful, because when the straw man walked from the flower bed to the square, the transition of the five elements was stagnant for half a second.

It took half a second to reveal a vague shape. You don't need to be careful with magic, you can see it with the naked eye.

"Try again."

Zhao Xing ordered the straw men to disperse, found another material from the side, and continued practicing.

In the Wanfa Palace.

Liu Tianning glanced at a corner of the square, showing a hint of surprise.

"Analyze the essence and learn it after just reading it once?"

"This is the first time I cast a spell. Although the straw man looks ugly, it is already effective."

"This kid is quite talented in the straw man method."

How high is Liu Tianning’s vision? He could tell at a glance that Zhao Xing was quite talented in the straw man method. He didn't have to look at it for too long. He could tell it just by watching him learn it for the first time.

Because Zhao Xing's learning is to analyze the essence, and he can do it.

Most of the others can't do it, so they start practicing by "learning its form".

"Huh? What is he doing?" Liu Tianning glanced at it, then chuckled and shook his head. "This boy is naughty!"

He actually used an invisible straw man to pull someone's belt.
