Cultivation begins with separation.

Chapter 114: The Return of the Primordial Purple Apricot
A year passed slowly.

Yi Dong stayed in the mountain day and night to make puppets.

As more and more causal puppets are created.

The "Palace of Thinking" has slowly undergone some changes.

At first, this change made Yi Dong alert, but as time passed and no parallel thinking appeared, Yi Dong no longer paid much attention to it.

As long as the supernatural power does not give rise to other consciousness and thoughts, Yi Dong can accept any change.

Today, his expectations for the “Temple of Mind” are low.

On this day, Yi Dong felt a familiar feeling.

In the palace of thought, countless pieces of knowledge collide.

How could he forget this feeling?

"what happened?

This year is only the 939th year of Qiantian, the year of Kanshui has not yet arrived, and the fairyland has not begun to draw in the energy of the heavens.

Is it possible? "

Yi Dong had a serious expression on his face and walked quickly towards the top of the mountain.

Soon, he arrived beside Taichu Zixing.

"This, soul consciousness."

Yi Dong’s bad premonition came true.

Taichu Zixing finally began to condense consciousness and gave birth to a soul.

For now, Yidong still has a choice.

He can extend his spiritual consciousness into the body of the Taichu Purple Apricot tree, and use secret methods to transform the soul that is about to condense from the Taichu Purple Apricot tree into his own soul.

This is something that can be done very easily.

After all, Taichu Zixing is his natal object, equivalent to a part of his body.

In the future, if I find a magical power to change my appearance, maybe I can make Taichu Zixing "transform".

With a clone, you can go on adventures for yourself, help yourself travel to the fairyland, and you can also have an extra avatar to do things that are inconvenient for you to do.

Moreover, the death of the clone will not have any major impact on oneself.

It can be said that there are many benefits.

However, Yi Dong had already thought about the matter of clones.

He always likes to think from other people's perspective.

What if it was his real body that died, but his clone was still alive?
So, is he still himself?

I thought that after my death, my clone would inherit my memory, my property, and my things.

The consequences are unimaginable, and you may not be able to rest in peace even after death.

It would be better to just end it all once and for all. I will never be able to create a clone in this lifetime.

At this moment, Taichu Zixing is gathering an independent consciousness.

The Taoist temple has long conducted research and found that trees also have memories.

When it develops wisdom and condenses its soul, those memories will become part of its soul consciousness.

Taichu Zixing, who has an independent soul, is no longer a part of Yi Dong's body.

Because the priority of controlling Taichu Zixing's body must be its soul.

Yi Dong was already thinking, if this newborn soul was too evil and unfriendly to him, how could he kill it without damaging Taichu Zixing's body.

Taichu Zixing condensed her soul very quickly, and it took shape in just three days.

Yi Dong has not yet figured out how to deal with this newborn soul, whether to educate it ideologically or let it grow freely.

Taichu Zixing contacted him.

A voice sounded in Yi Dong's mind.

"I finally woke up. Last time you robbed me of some of my star energy, which wasted a lot of my time."

Ok?
Yi Dong looked at Taichu Zixing,

"What's the meaning?
Have you developed intelligence a long time ago?"

“No, I just gained intelligence, but I also have memories. I know from my memories what you did to me and what happened around me.

Not just memory, but even in the moment of wisdom, I also understood my origins from my roots.”

"Aren't you a mutated Purple Cloud Fairy Apricot?
Are you also the reincarnation of some great being?"

It is not uncommon for powerful people to bypass the soul refining formation and reincarnate into an easy spirit or a tree.

Yi Dong secretly decided that if it was really the reincarnation of some powerful being, he would not refine its soul, but would kill Taichu Zixing.

Yi Dong once looked forward to the Gold Finger, but he definitely didn’t want the “Grandpa” one.

“You forgot that you left some of your blood and essence in my body, and part of your soul energy has also merged into my body.

In front of me, I can still roughly understand what you are thinking. "

Yi Dong was about to develop murderous intent.

I can't feel any emotion from Taichu Zixing, but she can sense my thoughts. Who is whose natal object?
“Don’t worry, I’m not some reincarnated great being.

Ok?
You are really suspicious. If I don't explain it clearly, you might kill me today."

Taichu Zixing's tone was neither hurried nor slow, as if life and death were not important to it.

It seems that there are some differences between the emotions of plants and those of flesh and blood creatures.

“Originally, I was indeed the Purple Cloud Fairy Apricot of the Tiandu Spirit Realm, but I had a slight reversion phenomenon, that is, the phenomenon of emitting purple air.

Originally, this little bit of regression was not enough to make me what I am today.

However, you refined me into a life creature, used your magic circuit to accidentally sort out my context, and also completed part of my origin.

At the same time, while you are learning supernatural powers from me, you are also driving the growth of my own supernatural powers.

All these factors have led to who I am today.”

“Stop talking nonsense and tell me your origins.

Of course, it is useless if you say something and I don’t believe it.”

"My origin is also very simple. I am probably a plant in the void whose roots extended to countless worlds. After it withered, its roots revived and became the Purple Cloud Fairy Apricot.

Of course, there are huge differences between the first generation of Purple Cloud Fairy Apricot and the current ones. Now, my atavism cannot reach the same level as the first generation.

In short, I am now somewhat related to void plants."

"What is your magical power?"

“After the void plant withered, it gave rise to several first-generation species, and my return to the ancestral tree is the ancient tree of wisdom.

My magical power - well, in your words, perhaps it can be called "high-dimensional vision". I just learned the term "dimension" from your thoughts.

Originally, I wanted to define my magical power as 'space-time exploration', but after thinking about it, perhaps the concept of 'dimension' in your mind is more suitable to define my magical power."

"I'm asking about the effect of your magical power, don't test my patience."

“Since you heard the name of my magical power, haven’t you already made your own guess?

It's similar to what you thought, but there is one difference. I can only see the changes in the heaven and earth, but I cannot observe the activities of living beings.

For example, I don’t understand your human race’s knowledge of cultivation and acquired creation.

The observation range of changes in heaven and earth becomes stronger with the passage of time.

If I could live for hundreds of millions of years, I would be able to sense every change in the entire Tiandu spiritual world.

Are you thinking about the energy of the heavens?
That should be the energy of the stars, well, to be precise, it is the essence of the stars as you understand it.

The natal star? The star spirit?
You are wrong. Just like plants can absorb sunlight, the changes in the sun have nothing to do with the plants on the ground.

And not all spirits are star spirits.

In the void, there are essences that are more advanced than the essences of stars. The spirits constructed by that kind of essence are much more powerful than the spirits of stars.

As for whether I can draw the essence of the stars on my own?

I am a fifth-level spiritual plant, but my main body has just grown to the third-level spiritual plant stage. Do you think there are any third-level spiritual plants that can attract the essence of the stars?

Like the situation last time, I was able to take advantage of the situation to draw in some of the essence.

Can you attract more people?
That definitely can’t happen.”

Yi Dong felt very uncomfortable during the conversation.

You don't even have to say a word, the other person can see your thoughts and then answer.

".I can't see your memories."

".It's best for me to grow naturally, there's no need for me to practice."

Taichu Zixing said a lot in one breath. Although her speech was slow, she didn't need to take a breath and could keep talking.

The sound of the steady beat kept ringing in his mind, making Yi Dong's head buzz.

"Is this the final question so soon?
In fact, I know a lot more things.

Ok.

You want to know whether what I said is true or not. It's actually very simple. From my memory, one of your sons, well, the one you are thinking of, has the memory of being able to see trees.

At that time, I had not yet developed wisdom, and my root memory had not awakened, so he could not see it. You can ask him to come back and look at my memory, and he will know.

I'm leaving now, why not chat some more.

I find it quite interesting to chat with you."

Return to your own yard.

Yi Dong was in deep thought.

It's time for me to study how to prevent my thoughts from being easily read by other things.

Since Taichu Zixing can read her own thoughts, others may be able to do it through magical powers.

For example, the Buddhist telepathy.

Yi Dong was also thinking about how to use Taichu Purple Apricot.

According to Taichu Zixing, it can help people attain enlightenment.

To put it simply, it is to sense the changes in heaven and earth through Taichu Zixing's magical powers.

If this kind of enlightenment ability were open to the Yi family members of Zijin Mountain, perhaps the Yi family would be able to produce many geniuses and rise rapidly.

If it is open to the outside world, spiritual stones will flow into your pocket continuously.

Of course, there is also a possibility that the Taichu Purple Apricot may be taken away by an ancient family or confiscated by the Immortal Kingdom. The Yi family of Zijin Mountain is qualified to control ordinary fifth-level spiritual plants, but for the special Taichu Purple Apricot, even if the five children immediately become Dao Jindan, they may not be able to keep it.

There is no need to open it to the Yi family.

The best way to keep it secret is to prevent anyone from using Taichu Zixing to gain enlightenment.

Besides, the other members of the Yi family are just tools to Yi Dong.

Allowing these tools to become too strong in a short period of time would be detrimental to his control over the Yi family.

As for his own enlightenment with the help of Taichu Zixing.

Then there is no need.

Yi Dong felt that his comprehension was already very strong and he did not need the help of Taichu Zixing.

Besides, Yi Dong didn’t think that using the vision of a tree to understand the world was the best choice.

"Forget it, let's take things one step at a time.

Let’s deal with the trading issues with the Lijiang demon tribe first.

The problem of Taichu Zixing can only be dealt with after Yi Feng returns.

After graduating, Yi Feng went directly to Shenmu Taoist Temple.

I wonder if he has time to go back.”

Yi Dong vaguely felt that Taichu Zixing had no ill intentions towards him.

It is very rare for such an outrageous thing to be backstabbed by one's natal creature. The natal creature is not a contracted spirit beast. Jin Xiu's research on the natal creature is already quite complete.

Time passes slowly.

It was the 941st year of Qiantian.

All the causal puppets have been manufactured.

On this day, the awakened being Wuming came to Purple Mountain.
