Chapter 287: The Origami Person with No Skills, Only Stats!
Chapter 287: The Origami Person with No Skills, Only Stats!
Energy emanated from within the darkness, and illusory figures flickered in the distance.
These were the undead beasts born within the simulated environment of the Sky Tomb.
The Wailing Demoness, with its eerie wails and translucent form,
The Blue Flame Heart Demon that Su Ping had encountered before.
The Ice Bone Skeleton, exuding an aura of bone-chilling cold.
The Rebirth Tree Mother, nurturing the energy of the undead.
The Hell Swordmaster, wielding the Death Sword...
Here, a realm of the undead had seemingly taken shape.
In the pitch-blackness, the most insidious threat was the pervasive Death Energy that seeped into one's body at all times.
This energy was the nemesis of all living beings, except for a few undead pets that had awakened the Death attribute.
Any life that came into contact with this Death Energy would eventually be annihilated!
However, what was a heart-chilling environment for others was a leisurely stroll for Su Ping.
The Elemental Paper Shield was raised, and the Quintessence Conflict of the Heavenly Cycle Five Elements Body rendered all attacks of the same element harmless.
Even the mental attacks of creatures like the Wailing Demoness were reduced to a minimum within the energy barrier that Su Ping effortlessly maintained.
As for the Bone Tyrant and Golden Silver Zombie, who relied on their powerful physical bodies to initiate attacks, they dared not approach, for Su Ping's Five Elements Sword unleashed a force that turned them into dust.
The Heavenly Cycle Five Elements Body, in addition to the Quintessence Conflict, also granted Su Ping absolute control over the elemental energies.
Thus, with each swing of his sword, the Enhanced Spear Technique, Earth Spikes, Water Bullets, Fire Balls, and Thorns were unleashed, as if they were free and limitless.
If one were to judge by the sheer force, Su Ping resembled the Peerless Lu Bu, wielding a halberd and mowing down hordes of enemies.
However, Su Ping's combat skills were relatively ordinary, and comparing him to Lu Bu would be an exaggeration.
If a comparison had to be made, he was like a student in a dorm battle, wielding a toilet brush.
Well... a toilet brush that had just been used, still wet with mysterious fluids.
Such a weapon would terrify anyone, making it a chaotic godsend in battle.
With each swing of his sword, the undead beasts were left dead or destroyed, showcasing a style devoid of skills but brimming with raw power.
Every strike exuded a beauty of sheer stats.
This was a display of energy extravagance and the ultimate charm of the Five Elements Paper Body.
It wasn't that Su Ping didn't want to showcase his skills; he wasn't the beast tamer of this Five Elements Paper Body, and his control was due to Qian Yi's influence and, more importantly, the combat instincts inherent in the Five Elements Paper Body.
While it wasn't entirely unrelated to Su Ping himself, the connection was not significant.
It was this very reason that made the power of the Five Elements Origami so astonishingly evident in the Sky Tomb, leaving everyone in awe.
Outside the glass partition, the three examiners went from confusion to shock, then to skepticism and silence as they watched Su Ping's performance.
Why did this kid always appear in places and at times that defied understanding?
Why did he always manage to do something that challenged their beast taming values?
What kind of precious being was he?
The selection process for the Sky Tomb's Special Beast Taming Force was solemn, if not entirely somber.
But the scene inside the testing room, with this half-grown child wielding a rolling pin, chasing after chickens, dogs, and geese, was so surreal that the examiners found it hard to watch.
Yet, even through the glass partition, they could sense the energy emanating from Su Ping and the Five Elements Paper Figure he wielded.
The energy was undeniably real.
It had reached the pinnacle of the Sovereign Rank.
But had their senses deceived them? Was this pet's rank not Overlord Tier? The examiners were perplexed.
At this moment, Master Yin could no longer contain himself and turned to the two examiners beside him, mainly addressing Cold Sir:
"Ghost Saint, should we increase the limit further? Should we activate the backup energy to enhance the test's difficulty?"
Increase the limit further?
Cold Sir's eyebrows arched.
The current rank was already at the Sovereign Rank. If they increased it again...
"According to the information, the Sky Tomb's internal Death Energy and its rank are far beyond what a typical Sovereign Rank beast tamer can handle!
This is why only Sovereign Rank tamers can enter, but the secret realm within contains beings above the Sovereign Rank. This might be the real challenge!
So, should we initiate the selection test at the preset highest difficulty?"
In the highest difficulty test experiment, a single Imperial Soul Crystal would be required as consumption!
"Then let's begin. Damn it, let this kid give it his all. Why does our selection feel like children playing house?"
Cold Sir rested his chin on his hand.
He wasn't concerned about any potential dangers.
At this very moment, a shadow slowly emerged behind him.
If Su Ping encountered any problems within the glass partition, he could intervene immediately.
As for the consumption of high-level resources?
If they could truly gauge the limits of this thing and increase the survival rate in the Sky Tomb by even a tenth, it would be a huge gain!
"Su Ping, due to the unexpected performance of your pet, the highest test difficulty will commence in 30 seconds. Please prepare. If you cannot endure it, it will be terminated immediately. Rest assured. Countdown begins: 30, 29, 28..."
And then?
Su Ping held a sword in one hand and a shield in the other, exuding an aura of invincibility, as if a single inch of iron could ward off a thousand armies and a single piece of armor could withstand ten thousand enemies.
"Bring it on!"
A strange rumbling sound reverberated.
Instantly, a chilling coldness that seemed to freeze even one's thoughts seeped in from the outside.
Su Ping's mind seemed to freeze as well.
The light on the Five Elements Paper Figure shone brightly at this moment.
Finally, the colorful, shimmering light, like a heavenly robe, completely enveloped Su Ping.
The circulation of the Five Elements in his body reached its peak at this very moment!
The pinnacle of the Five Elements.
The energy fluctuation of the Imperial rank burst forth in full force,
making Su Ping at this moment seem like a divine being enveloped in colorful light.
"Is this beast... using a skill to conceal its aura?"
At this very moment, this thought became the sole focus of the three outside the chamber.
Could this thing still have more to offer?
Unbelievable.
Undoubtedly, they were incredulous.
However, from behind the glass partition, in this even darker world, the energy fluctuation emitted by the beast was undeniable!
Undoubtedly, with the Sky Tomb environment heightened to another level, even Su Ping couldn't continue his indiscriminate slaughter.
"Boom!"
The tremor reverberated not only throughout the entire trial chamber but also reached the floors below, where the thunderous sound was heard.
The vibration was so intense that it shook the entire building!
What was happening upstairs?
What was this selection all about?
No one knew, but at this very moment, the initially relaxed atmosphere among some people became tense once more.
Thirty minutes later,
The endless darkness, the chilling death energy, and the countless wraith-like undead beasts slowly dissipated.
Su Ping exhaled a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The Imperial Soul Crystal, which maintained a Sovereign-level field simulation, had to create numerous undead beast phantoms and simulate the infusion of death energy, all of which were consuming.
While the Imperial Soul Crystal was high-level, its consumption was equally immense!
However, Su Ping himself knew that the Five Elements Paper Figure's energy circulation, and the Five Elements Body's operation had nearly reached their limits.
Even if the simulated energy wasn't entirely consumed, he couldn't persist for much longer.
But this was enough.
This was evident from the gazes of his father, Su An Yong, and Master Yin.
Now, they finally understood why this beast's selection experiment required this young man to sign a confidentiality agreement.
It was too absurd!
"Su Ping, what kind of beast is this?"
"An Origami Person!"
Su Ping replied, storing the Five Elements Paper Shield and Five Elements Paper Sword into the Beast Taming Realm.
Only the Five Elements Armor remained, slowly fading from his body.
If not for the presence of outsiders, Cold Sir and Su An Yong would have each grabbed an ear and demanded, "You call this an Origami Person?"
Fortunately, Su Ping wasn't one to beat around the bush. With a thought, he gave a command, and the Five Elements Paper Figure, which had just displayed its might, instantly shattered.
In the bewildered gazes of the three, it transformed into five Origami Persons of various colors.
"This..."
"Origami Persons aren't useless beasts. The reason their evolved forms haven't been discovered is purely because the correct method hasn't been found! Origami Persons possess another skill called Paper Body Assembly..."
"Paper Body Assembly?"
Master Yin, a renowned Necromancer Breeder, was indeed exceptional. Just as Su Ping had mentioned, he quickly understood the concept, his gaze piercing through the glass as he exclaimed, "You mean..."
"Yes, the souls and bodies of Origami Beings are incomplete. Ordinary Beast Taming methods won't work to perfect them. What's needed is to complete their souls, and both their bodies and souls can be achieved through assembly. Like this!"
Su Ping's mind moved, and the five Origami Beings reassembled into the Five Elements Paper Figure before dispersing again.
"After these five Origami Beings are assembled to form a main body, they become a truly complete Paper Being, a truly independent life form with a complete soul! This is the key to the evolution of Origami Beings. However, I didn't discover this too long ago, and for now, I've only found the single-element evolution of Origami Beings.
According to my speculation, the subsequent evolution of Origami Beings, besides element-specific enhancements, will also have assembly and combination as a key point! Of course, this is something for later.
For now, let me first explain to the three of you the assembly forms of Origami Beings and their advantages and disadvantages."
After a brief pause, Su Ping stood up straight, his recent combat performance giving more weight to his words.
"First, Origami Beings have great assembly flexibility. Once a Beast Taming Master contracts with an Origami Being, they can maintain the assembled state and store numerous Origami Beings within their Beast Taming Realm.
At the same time, because the soul contract of Origami Being pets dominates, there's no difference in controlling the rest of the pets!
Secondly, the flexibility of Origami Beings allows for adjusting their numbers to determine the strength they exert. For example, the combination of five Origami Beings with different attributes and element evolutions just now formed an evolved body.
In the future, by entering, they can perfectly integrate and achieve this.
However, the disadvantage is that the pets have a stronger tendency to be controlled by the Beast Taming Master, and their scouting and reconnaissance abilities are almost non-existent!"
Cold Sir finally found an opportunity to ask a question. At this moment, he spoke up, "Then, the power that was unleashed by that form just now, can it be achieved by the other Origami Beings?"
Su Ping nodded and shook his head, "The assembly flexibility of Origami Being pets is indeed remarkable. The Five Elements Paper Figure just now was relatively special, and this is my main achievement during this period. In theory, the Five Elements Paper Figure can continue to add other Origami Beings for assembly.
To unleash the power just now, these five Origami Beings are essential because there are two unique Super Rank Skills on this assembled form..."
Two Super Rank Skills?
Even though they had already understood that the power displayed earlier couldn't be solely attributed to the pet's race, the cultivation of Super Rank Skills was undoubtedly a contributing factor.
However, when Su Ping mentioned these two Super Rank Skills, he still managed to surprise the three people present.
"What Super Rank Skills?" they asked.
"One of them, you three should be very familiar with. It's the Five Elements Heart, the Super Rank Combination Skill that Master Zhu Hong and I cultivated together!"
The Five Elements Heart...
The three nodded. Even Cold Sir and Master Yin, let alone Su Anyong, were extremely familiar with this most basic and common Super Rank Skill.
It was inevitable, as even Beast Taming Masters who weren't skilled in Super Rank Skills would often use this Five Elements Heart as an example.
So, the appearance of this Super Rank Skill wasn't surprising.
Obviously, the main focus of attention was on the second skill.
"As for the second Super Rank Skill..."
Su Ping didn't rush to explain. Instead, he smiled and took out three pieces of paper from the Beast Taming Realm:
"You three can sign the Confidentiality Agreement first, and then I'll explain."
There should be another chapter before noon. Yesterday, I felt sick and nauseous all day, so the previous chapter might be a bit stiff. I'll refine it when I have time.
