Ranking Of Kings: My Land Is SSS Rank

517 The True Secret of the Straw Man Race

Li Xiang didn’t go for the entire stalk of Golden Essence Rice. Instead, he carefully took three to five grains from the hundreds of grains, then moved on to the next stalk.

There were at least 100 to 200 grains of rice on a stalk of Golden Essence Rice. Losing 10 to 20 would not attract much attention, let alone three to five.

If one didn’t look carefully, one wouldn’t be able to tell.

The Golden Essence Rice’s yield wasn’t low, with each stalk having two to three hundred grains of rice. There was no telling how much Golden Essence Rice could be harvested from the tens of thousands of acres of rice fields. That was definitely a terrifying amount of wealth.

It was no wonder that so many monsters came to seek gratuitous help. They simply couldn’t help it! It was too alluring.

Without any delay, Li Xiang sneaked along. Wherever he went, three or five ripened grains of rice would be missing from each stalk of Golden Essence Rice. He would then send them directly into the Seven-colored Gourd Vine’s space to store them temporarily.

During that process, the Straw men did not notice anything unusual.

There was simply too much Golden Essence Rice planted in the basin. Although Li Xiang’s speed was breakneck, he would still take a long time to cover tens of thousands of acres of land.

Before he knew it, a massive pile of Golden Essence Rice had accumulated in the Seven-colored Gourd Vine’s space. It was golden, like a mountain of gold. It glowed slightly and looked highly dazzling.

During that process, Li Xiang even felt the strange joy of harvest.

“The decision to come out this time was right. I’ve gained a lot. To be able to gain a top rank spiritual rice such as the Golden Essence Rice is too worth it!”

Li Xiang couldn’t control his facial muscles and revealed a faint smile uncontrollably. He was in a good mood.

Rare treasures like spiritual rice were not widely planted in the Myriad World Continent as the conditions to grow the spiritual rice were highly stringent.

There must be spiritual soil or spiritual fields that contain abundant Spiritual Qi. There must also be a suitable temperature and environment.

Therefore, only the top rank forces had the right to plant a rare treasure like spiritual rice. It was protected as the most important treasure, and anyone who dared to covet it would become a life-and-death enemy.

Therefore, getting the spiritual rice seeds from other forces was almost impossible.

Even buying spiritual rice would be a luxury.

That was because the spiritual rice production was already low. Who would be willing to sell it when there was already not enough for internal distribution?

Even if they took it out for sale, how much could there be? When demand was more than supply, there was simply no market.

But he had now obtained it so easily. It would definitely become another hidden force of the Kingdom of Dawn.

“Leader, it’s ready!”

At that moment, one of the Straw men arrived in front of the golden Straw man and spoke.

“Bring those straws and follow me. The rest of you patrol the area closely to guard against the thieves who stole the grains!”

From the golden Straw man’s instructions, one could tell that it was a Straw man with extraordinary wisdom. In fact, all the Straw men there were the same. They all had great wisdom.

They could think and move. Other than their bodies being different, they were almost no different from humans. It was just that the guardian mark had been branded in their bones and souls, and it was unbreakable.

“Eh? What is going on with these Straw men? Something’s up?”

Li Xiang, who had been paying close attention to the Straw men’s movements, immediately noticed that and was immediately on guard.

He looked over subconsciously and saw the golden Straw man in front, followed by a large group of Straw men. Each of them was holding a brand new Straw man made of straw and walking toward a hidden valley.

“Interesting. I’d like to go and take a look. Maybe I can discover some great secret!”

Li Xiang did not hesitate to follow those Straw men.

Although he was invisible, he was still cautious. He used all kinds of obstacles to hide his body and moved even more cautiously to avoid alerting the Straw men.

He had witnessed the power of those Straw men that day. He would definitely not treat them like those brainless fierce beasts.

The golden Straw man was also very confident. It didn’t think that there was anything that could hide from its spiritual sense.

A moment later, they arrived at the deep end of the valley and saw a cave.

At the cave entrance, two tall and burly Straw men were guarding the place. Their Qi dynamics were much stronger than common Straw men, only slightly weaker than the golden Straw man.

Those were clearly the absolute elites among the Straw men.

“These guys really have a secret!”

Li Xiang’s curiosity was piqued. He silently followed the Straw man in front of him and entered the cave.

The cave’s interior was very spacious, but there were more elite Straw men guarding the place.

Li Xiang was secretly shocked. “Good fellows. I didn’t expect this golden Straw man to be a cunning one. The weakest and most common Straw men are patrolling the fields outside, while the real powerful Straw men are hidden in caves. If we don’t know the Straw men’s background, we might fail if we send an army to attack.”

In the innermost part of the cave, there was an even larger space. It wasn’t inferior to the underground space excavated by the Scorpion race.

Li Xiang hid behind a large rock. After taking a look inside, he couldn’t help but secretly gasp.

“What is this?”

In the center of the vast space was a round pool with a 300 to 400 feet radius.

Just one glance was enough to conclude that the pool wasn’t simple. There was a sticky golden liquid inside.

The golden liquid emitted a strange light that looked highly divine.

In the middle of the pool was a 30-foot-tall Straw man statue which was very lifelike.

Rattle!

An even stranger thing happened in front of him.

The Straw men who had followed in immediately threw the Straw men made of straw into the golden pool.

After that, those Straw men sank into the golden pool and were soaked in the golden liquid. Instantly, countless golden rays of light seemed to flow around their bodies.

Whoosh!

It didn’t take long for the Straw men in the golden pool to start moving. The inanimate objects seemed to have been given life!

“Rattle…”

One by one, the Straw men struggled a few times in the pool. They stood up and walked out of the pool as if they had been wholly awakened.

“Protect the rice fields and chase away the thieves!”

The moment they stood still, they suddenly shouted a slogan!

The firm belief in their eyes seemed to be glowing!

“When they entered, they were truly ice-cold inanimate Straw men. But when they came out, they were Straw men with life and soul. It’s simply a miracle. So that’s how the Straw men in the basin came about!”

Li Xiang’s eyes glistened with shock.
