Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 458 - 223: Xue Hongluan’s Wicked Taste! The Basis of Five Elements Super-Rank Skills!_4

Therefore, this Super-Rank Skill from the Five Elements had not formally fused yet.

However, for Su Ping, the most arduous transition step had already been resolved at this very moment!

Now, what he needed to do was to see where the limits of this Five Elements Cycle were!

Su Ping’s eyes were excitedly fixed on the Five Elements Paper Diagram that had formed, with no intention of stopping it. Bloodshot threads appeared in his eyes, but he paid them no mind.

"Qian Yi, continue!" he urged. "Five Elements Paper Diagram, let me see your limits! Keep transforming!"

The orange-red energy of the Fire Element rose in the air, bringing with it a scorching temperature. Then, the Five Elements energy began its transformation once more.

In an instant, with the flare-up of this energy, all but the Water Element lit up again on the Five Elements Paper Diagram.

And then, it all stopped.

A crisp snapping sound was followed by a booming explosion coming from the basement.

Then, an explosion of energy that wasn’t overly strong, but still potent enough, turned into a Fireball and burst thunderously within the basement. Qian Yi drew his sword and placed it in front of him, blocking all the force of the explosion.

At the same time, he protected the other scattered Papermen with his Sword Qi.

Su Ping blinked, surveying the dust in front of him, then hurried past the little Paperman Qian Yi to look at the original Five Elements Paper Diagram.

Clearly, the Five Elements Paper Diagram could no longer maintain its integrated state and had split apart.

Some injuries appeared on several Five Elements Origami Men; among them, the Water Element Origami Man was the least affected, almost undamaged. Its body was merely slightly singed and blackened. As for the other four—the Metal, Wood, and Earth Element Origami Men—their condition was also manageable.

But as the epicenter of the Fire Element’s direct explosion, that Fire Element Origami Man was the most severely injured. Even to describe it as hanging by a thread would not be an exaggeration. Its paper body was riddled with large cracks and tears, with parts even bearing the marks of burnt ash.

Su Ping didn’t think twice before activating his innate Talent, ’Rapid Recovery’.

The consumption of spiritual power transformed into the purest Life Force, healing the Fire Element Origami Man in that moment. At the same time, he took out several pre-prepared recovery resources and used them on this Fire Element Origami Man.

This barely managed to stop the deterioration of the little creature’s injuries.

This was one of the advantages of Papermen. Such injuries would probably have reduced any other Pet Beast to ashes. In contrast, a Paperman, being a creature of the Necromancy Series, had no vital weaknesses. As long as a part of its body remained, it could revive and recover at the fastest possible rate.

After this series of actions, Su Ping wasn’t worried about the Papermen’s injuries, but what had just happened was clear to him.

To say he wasn’t disappointed would be impossible, but it was, after all, to be expected.

Even though they had combined, the innate Level of the Five Elements Origami Men was only Elite First Rank, a fact that could not be altered! At such a Level, to withstand energy rolling at the Commander Level—and not just releasing Skills but also continuing to amplify them according to the principles of the Five Elements—was indeed too much for these low-Level Papermen.

But even though it had only completed one cycle of five transformations, Su Ping could draw a conclusion from it. This explosion proved the viability of the Five Elements Cycle.

The evolved Papermen could now withstand this type of transformation, but they still couldn’t endure multiple transformations.

However, this wasn’t an insurmountable problem. In fact, for Su Ping, it was quite simple.

Thinking of this, Su Ping let out a breath and glanced at Qian Yi.

"Keep a close watch on these Papermen’s recovery, and for now, don’t let them continue to combine into the Five Elements Paper Diagram form. You go practice your swordsmanship."

"WAH!"

After the little Paperman acknowledged, Su Ping left the gloomy basement.

As expected, after a busy day, the evening sun was setting, presenting a scene of dusk.

The Papermen’s continued growth and improvement merely required pumping resources into them. However, the race limit of a pure Elemental Papercraft Person was, after all, only the peak of Elite Tenth Stage.

Thinking this, Su Ping no longer hesitated, took out his phone, opened Liu Fuhai’s contact, and dialed.
