Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

Chapter 534: Chapter 199: Flying Petals and Leaves, Transcendent Methods_2

His confidence surged.

Mere hidden weapons, nothing more, he thought.

Then, he moved forward and collected all the flying knives he had thrown.

At the same time, an idea formed in his mind.

Why not up the difficulty and try Flying Petals and Leaves?

It seemed that heavy objects were no longer a problem for him.

Therefore, he wanted to try something light, like leaves.

He wanted to see if he could achieve the unprecedented skill of Flying Petals and Leaves, turning decay into magic!

This wasn’t him aiming too high.

Rather, Zhang Beixing truly possessed this strength.

As someone possessing a System, a Mental Attribute of 180, and being the sole individual to date who had cultivated Postnatal Five Qi to reach the Hidden Essence Realm, his control over his physical body was meticulous. This, combined with his Unbreakable Divine Sight and unparalleled Spiritual Power, meant that both his force exertion techniques and accuracy were innate.

With this in mind, Zhang Beixing looked around and found an evergreen tree in the small woods—though he didn’t know its species.

Figuring it was just an ordinary tree, Zhang Beixing thought nothing of it, casually plucked a leaf, and started his Hidden Weapon training.

Then, his first attempt at Hidden Weapon practice failed.

It couldn’t be helped. Although his Mental Attribute was 180 and his comprehension extraordinary, that was, after all, only extraordinary comprehension.

He wasn’t omniscient.

Zhang Beixing still needed some time to learn.

It was just that this learning time was significantly reduced.

Zhang Beixing understood this.

After his first attempt failed, he wasn’t discouraged.

He merely analyzed the reasons for his initial failure.

Then, he plucked another leaf from a nearby tree.

He swung his arm, flicked his wrist, and suddenly flung it forward.

WHOOSH!

Thanks to Zhang Beixing’s adjustments, this attempt was noticeably better than the first.

At least it was actually flying, not just tossed out to drift in the air as before.

Seeing some success in his practice, Zhang Beixing persevered, and he practiced for the entire morning!

After countless failures and subsequent refinements, Zhang Beixing picked up another leaf.

He held it between his index finger and thumb, his index finger pressing down slightly. The moment his fingers secured the leaf, he bent his arm, concentrating power at his fingertips.

He aimed forward.

WHOOSH—

Zhang Beixing’s arm snapped forward, and a crisp sound emanated from his hand.

The soft leaf, propelled by the strong force Zhang Beixing exerted, shot from his grasp.

Like a razor blade, it showed no signs of bending or deformation as it spun outwards.

CRACK—

A subtle, crisp sound, almost imperceptible to the ear, was heard.

The spinning leaf hit a tree trunk fifteen meters away, instantly flinging off some wood splinters.

The leaf itself, after such an impact, shattered into tiny pieces that scattered on the ground.

Seeing this, Zhang Beixing walked forward to inspect it.

He found a tiny cut on the tree fifteen meters away.

It was as if a small knife had lightly grazed it.

Very shallow and thin.

It barely even counted as a superficial wound.

Tsk, the accuracy is there, but the power is mediocre! And the leaf’s spin is too weak; it can’t achieve any cutting effect at all! Zhang Beixing muttered, smacking his lips.

In that last throw, he had used nearly half his strength.

According to his test results at the Pu’er Military District, that was 2,000 jin of force.

If he had struck the tree with his fist using that much force, he could have blasted it apart.

But when he applied this force to a leaf, it merely created a tiny gash on the large tree, one that couldn’t even be considered a superficial wound.

This damage conversion rate was truly pitiful.

Furthermore, the leaf possessed no other special abilities.

For instance, it couldn’t spin back after being thrown, make a loop before hitting the target, or have its trajectory freely controlled—these were all feats Zhang Beixing had yet to achieve.

Let alone controlling it with Postnatal Five Qi.

Zhang Beixing tried several times, all to no avail.

Either the leaf couldn’t withstand the Postnatal Five Qi he infused and would shatter, or the leaf would withstand it, but the Postnatal Five Qi was too weak, dissipating naturally before Zhang Beixing could even make his throw.

This can’t go on, Zhang Beixing murmured, pausing his training. He sat down, frowning as he deeply pondered how to resolve this issue. I need to think of a way to solve this. Without any means of displaying Transcendent power, what’s the damn point!

However, even after much thought, Zhang Beixing still had no clue.

The ultimate reason was his still-too-limited understanding of Postnatal Five Qi.

Forget it. If it really doesn’t work out, I’ll just have to grind it out slowly. With slow and steady practice, I’ll eventually get it. But before that, it’s better to first boost my Mental Attribute. Once my Mental Attribute increases, my comprehension will also rise, and the efficiency of my training will significantly improve.

Zhang Beixing mused. With a thought, he opened his Personal Panel.
