Chapter 1770: Chapter 10: Giant Sun Reborn, Master and Disciple Join Forces to Break Through Taixu! (Part 1)
"Hoo~"
Zhao Xing’s true form let out a long breath.
Atop Taichu City, Zuo Qiyu stood on the city wall watching from afar, the Five Poison Emperor also appeared nearby.
"This kid is really ruthless, to learn your spell, he even self-destructed his soul appearance. With his talent, relying on 1000 Soul Spirit Pills, he could possibly elevate his soul directly to the Life and Death Domain Realm, sparing himself some hardship."
Zuo Qiyu ignored the Five Poison.
"Still angry?" The Five Poison Emperor cautiously glanced, "I was wrong, okay? I repent to the great and supreme Primordial Envoy. Consider it my fault for being foul-mouthed..."
"Alright, what do you mean by ’consider it your fault for being foul-mouthed’?" Zuo Qiyu retracted his gaze from Zhao Xing, giving the Five Poison a scornful glance. "You really are despicable!"
"Thank you for the compliment, Envoy." Five Poison shamelessly smiled.
"Get lost!"
...
The Giant Sun avatar broke free from the gray mist, but not completely.
Zhao Xing found that although he was unaffected by the Illusion Realm, becoming reclusive, the gray mist still affected him.
It’s just that this time, it impacted the Grassman’s body.
"This isn’t right, why am I expanding!"
Zhao Xing watched as the threads of gray mist passed through, and then his body began to expand involuntarily like a balloon.
"Treasure Mountain Divine Ability!"
Zhao Xing exerted Wu Tian’s divine skills, attempting to control his size.
However, his body continued to expand, quickly surpassing the Five Extremes.
And it was growing at an astonishing rate.
As if the gray mist was some sort of nourishment, feeding the Giant Sun avatar, making it impossible to control!
"My Giant Sun Grassman has an extreme size limit of Seven Extremes; if I continue to grow, I’ll explode!"
"Rice Grain Mixed Heaven Technique, shrink, shrink, shrink!"
Zhao Xing immediately switched, employing the second type of divine skill.
Rice Grain Mixed Heaven Technique, a Great Divine Power.
It can shrink the body, making the flesh extremely hard.
Transforming the body into indestructible particles, penetrating everything.
Normally, mastering the Rice Grain Mixed Heaven Technique to the third level allows one to shrink to the size of a human thumb.
At levels four to six, one can become as small as a grain of rice.
If perfected, it becomes a true particle form, completely undetectable, reputed to be able to pierce any defense, burrow into a Daoist Soldier or enemy’s body to wreak havoc, or enlarge again, causing the enemy to explode.
"Shrink, shrink, shrink!!"
Because of the unique nature of the Giant Sun avatar, even the true form wouldn’t use the Rice Grain Mixed Heaven Technique, only the Giant Sun avatar could, already at Great Divine Power Fourth Rank.
Instantly reducing the size below 1 Extreme.
However, under the stimulation of the gray mist, it soon shifted into a size above Three Extremes, heading toward the limit.
The tug of war between sizes made Zhao Xing’s mood sour.
"The expanding force exceeds my spell casting limit; in at most half a year, I won’t be able to hold on."
"Zuo Qiyu, learning your stuff is really damn difficult."
Zhao Xing couldn’t help but curse.
Despite the curse, the hurdle still needs to be tackled.
Zhao Xing quickly pondered strategies, began sorting through his own studies, seeking means of counteraction.
"The only option is to take a gamble; not sure if I can manifest that move on the avatar, my success rate is only thirty percent."
Within the Inner World of the Guluo River, Zhao Xing had already reached four cultivation sites.
The first site was a resilient vine of Emperor Level.
The second was a thousand-year-old willow.
The third was a weed of the Reincarnation Realm.
The fourth was a green bamboo of Emperor Level.
"The Guluo River once said I had embarked on the path of cultivating the Life Dao, having taken the first step in the Dao Realm."
"Every three cultivation sites counts as a step forward; the first step is [Life Origin]. My stalk fighting divine skills are enough to shake the Life Origin, strengthening my transformation spell and World Technique comprehensively."
"Now, having taken the second step, what I’ve comprehended is [Life Awakening]. The realm of Dao applied to spells like Grassman Skill, World Technique, Parasitic Law, Divine Brilliance Skill, and so on will benefit."
"However, I’ve yet to fully comprehend the second step of the Life Dao; applying Life Awakening to the Grassman, the success rate is merely thirty percent."
With any desire for a breakthrough too late at this moment.
Zhao Xing could only give it his best shot.
Half a year later.
"Bang~"
In a rapid expansion, the Giant Sun Grassman burst open.
As previously anticipated, amidst the tug-of-war between size changes, Zhao Xing’s Giant Sun Grassman couldn’t withstand.
Zuo Qiyu’s voice sounded in the vast void.
"Zhao Xing, you have failed."
"Wait a moment, senior!" Zhao Xing abruptly stood up. "I haven’t failed yet!"
"Oh?" Zuo Qiyu glanced at Zhao Xing’s scattered grassman remnants. "Could it be you’ve not shaken off the influence of the Taixu Illusion Realm, unable to see your Grassman has already burst apart?"
Zhao Xing transmitted his voice from afar, "Senior, my consciousness within the avatar hasn’t dissipated; just now I intentionally dispersed it; please be patient, senior."
Zuo Qiyu’s heart was moved, and he eyed the grassman remnants on the ground once more.
Then a glimmer of a different color flashed in his eyes.
Only to see part of the exploded grassman remnants slant into the soil, a sprig of green sprouted from the twig, quickly growing tender leaves.
"Scatter the grass and replant, cyclical renewal... turns out he’s comprehended the second true sense of the Life Dao, Life Awakening," the Five Poison Emperor also gazed at the grassman remnants below.
"Genius, a genius indeed, Brother Zuo, this kid very much echoes your style back in the days."
Understanding is understanding, spells are spells, being able to apply comprehended Dao to spells is indeed rare and precious.
The Five Poison Emperor had seen many geniuses, but Zhao Xing’s aptitude truly amazed him.
Even if Zhao Xing was a reincarnated being, the Five Poison still found him astonishing; moreover, he didn’t believe Zhao Xing was a reincarnator.
"Being able to create his own Great Divine Power, Zhao Xing’s level of genius is already close to the martial artist Du Yun, even though still quite immature, but, brother, you should teach him." Five Poison advised.
