Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Chapter 465 Harvest 5
The amount of information was overwhelming and quite alarming.

Before Wei Xi could organize his thoughts, the memory tree in the tailbone began to collapse.

The good news is that Wei Xi has learned how the tailbone sealed itself, and it is now entirely feasible to cut it out from the precarious rings of memory.

Of course, since he was already here, Wei Xi let out a cold laugh, extracted this precious memory, and used his spiritual power to push it back into the [true self] inserted into his body!
"I don't care what you are, you'll become my tailbone first!"

Wei Xi's move was the result of careful consideration—no matter how many abilities the Longevity Wood possessed, it needed a medium to unleash them, and most of its schemes and tricks were hidden within its "true self." Considering that it governs memories, he could completely use the memories from his coccyx to cover up the existence within his "true self."

Firstly, Tail is strong enough, and secondly, it is already dead and cannot harm Wei Xi.

After completing this step, Wei Xi immediately withdrew his spiritual energy.

The originally pitch-black "true self" trembled slightly, invaded by memories belonging to the coccyx, and in the blink of an eye transformed into a sea blue color. At the same time, green spiritual liquid appeared on its surface, which solidified, cracked, and fell off in pieces.

"It's done!" Wei Xi was overjoyed. "Old blockhead, you really were hiding something!"

The more skilled Wei knew when to quit while he was ahead, and prepared to leave.

But then, a thought suddenly occurred to Wei Xi: Wei Lu isn't crazy, so why is he accommodating so many memories of others?
“It’s not only not crazy, it’s incredibly smart,” Wei Xi thought quickly as he delved into a large number of memory rings. “Over the years, it has done a lot of things with the few drops of its body that have been scattered outside. The slug’s death was caused by the inability to withstand the force of its tailbone.”

"Therefore, the fact that the memory rings are so chaotic must be intentional!"

"Used as a cover... to hide something?"

Wei Xi felt it was highly likely. Since they had already found a way out, it was worth risking finding what was hidden in the tailbone.

Therefore, before the Tree of Memory completely collapsed, Wei Xi diligently searched the junctions of the trunk and branches, the twisted points of the annual rings, and the points where the annual rings merged. According to the nature of the tailbone, these places were most likely to hide the treasures it valued.

The risky move was originally intended to achieve a great victory with a small investment. However, Wei Xi gained a large amount of chaotic and complex memories, which not only depleted his already limited spiritual energy but also subjected him to several attacks.

Yes, Wei Xi was surprised to find that Tail Lobe had replicated a large number of talismans in the memory rings of others.

Considering that there were no talismans during the time when the tail was formed, this thing was most likely learned from the victims of the Bone Reef Sea.

Imprisonment is indeed a way to develop potential! Tail not only glimpsed the secrets of memory, but was even able to learn new knowledge through limited channels and apply it to the modification of memory rings.

Terrifying! Terrifying!
However, this also confirms that something important is hidden in the rings of memory.

However, the tailbone lived for too long, and its massive memory rings were an insurmountable barrier.

Finding a needle in a haystack is like this.

After a moment's hesitation, Wei Xi made her decision. She mobilized nearly 90% of the spiritual power in her Qi Palace to attack the areas where the rings of memories intersected.

I'll tear it up!

The truth came out, and this move was a natural consequence of the situation. The already precarious Tree of Memory collapsed even faster, and the places where Wei Xi had shown such intense love were shattered.

Originally, manipulating the tree rings could have been a way to fool people, but such aggressive behavior was clearly not something a tree could do. Even though the "id" was still stuck in his stomach, Wei Xi was still rejected by the Tree of Memory.

Despite the immense pressure, Wei Xi desperately searched through the vortex of fragments.

Just before being expelled from the Tree of Memories, Wei Xi's gaze caught sight of three red coral boxes.

"Found it!" Wei Xi manipulated his remaining spiritual power and grabbed the box closest to him.

Before Wei Xi could even harm the second coral box, the Tree of Memory was completely annihilated.

Opening my eyes, the swaying tree above my head disappeared with the flowing water, like a meteor that had been brewing for a thousand years in the seabed.

"That tree is gone," Qin Feng rushed back to Wei Xi's side and asked worriedly, "Have you found what you need?"

Wei Xi blinked slowly, indicating that he had successfully completed his mission.

In the rings of memory, Wei Xi understood the way the coccyx imprisoned itself.

From the perspective of some demonic beasts, their abilities did not come out of thin air, but were a reward for guarding a region. After Yu Xianzhou's death, the position of demonic beast guarding the Dongyi water system was passed to Weilu.

Therefore, the tail can mobilize the seawater of the Dongyi people.

This is the third type of power, existing between Yin and Yang energies and spiritual energy.

In Wei Xi's general education on cultivation, spiritual energy naturally exists between heaven and earth, and cultivators can use their Qi Palace to convert spiritual energy into more condensed and controllable spiritual power.
At the Yin-Yang Stream training class, Granny Corpse told Wei Xi that spiritual energy originated from Yin-Yang energy;

After practical testing, Wei concluded that both spiritual energy and yin-yang energy could be used by cultivators.

If we completely oppose demons and humans, we can explain it as follows:
The demons usually use Yin and Yang energy, and the humans who initially developed their Qi Palace also used Yin and Yang energy.

However, Yin and Yang energies are more in tune with the will of Heaven. In the process of guarding various regions, the demons developed a third power between Yin and Yang energies and spiritual energy. Yin and Yang energies were too heavy a burden on the body, so the human race turned to spiritual energy.

This evolutionary process is theoretically flawed: where do spiritual energy and the third power come from? Are they both derived from yin and yang energy?
However, if we shift our focus from the opposition to the commonalities between the two races, we will find that both are beings under the rule of Heaven, creations of Yin and Yang, and active in the world.

If that's the case, why can't the third power and spiritual energy be regarded as different stages on the same path of evolution?
That is, the demon beasts that originated from Yin and Yang energies evolved a third kind of power. Under the combined stimulation of this power and Yin and Yang energies, the human race grew Qi Palaces, which transformed spiritual energy into spiritual power.

Wei Xi temporarily named the third power "demonic energy" and called this hypothesis the theory of spiritual power evolution.

Wei Xi believes that the source of the demonic energy is related to demonic beasts guarding the area, while there is currently no convincing speculation about the source of the spiritual energy.

However, Wei Xi vaguely felt that this was related to his forgotten memories of directly facing the universe.

The more tense things become, the closer Wei Xi gets to the truth.

Of course, Wei Xi had no interest in academic pursuits; this theory inspired her to escape.

Since Wei Lu has locked himself up with demonic energy, Wei Xi can also use demonic energy to release himself!

“Before that,” Wei Xi’s gaze fell on the coral box he had picked up, “let me see what you are!”

It wasn't that Wei Xi was in a hurry to open the blind boxes, but rather that the environment of the tidal pool was relatively controllable.

Qin Feng opened the coral box, revealing a pale yellow flame inside.

"This is... the power to silt up and dry up?!"

A bountiful harvest in the west!
