The core of the Withered and Flourishing Skill lies in the principle that within the Five Elements, wood generates earth, and earth nourishes wood.
Practicing such a secret technique allows one to manipulate all the surrounding vegetation and the power of the earth.
When cultivated to a profound realm, one can with a mere wave of the hand cause all things to wither or flourish, with all grass and tree spirits in the world under one's control.
The Wood of the Five Elements is accompanied by the arts of control and puppetry.
As long as the spiritual qi of plants is sufficient, one can turn beans into soldiers, and with a wave of the hand, create countless grass, wood, and stone puppets.
Wooden Men is one of the divine techniques of the Wood of the Five Elements.
Besides the art of puppetry, there is also vitality stealing and the longevity body.
