Cultivation begins with separation.

Chapter 93 Extracting Memory
After Yi Dong returned to his yard.

Thinking about it.

He Yidong is not a fool.

After five days and so many contacts with Yi Ling, how could he not see that Yi Ling was abnormal.

He had watched Yi Ling grow up since she was a child, and he had also seen her magical powers when she was a student at Qingzhu Taoist Academy.

The changes are so great, but there is still no problem. It seems that Yi Dong’s head is stuck.

Moreover, Yi Ling spent five days to make a room full of jade slips. He read through some of them and found that except for some words that he could not understand, the writing was very rigorous and did not seem to be engraved from memory at all.

She doesn't have any magical powers like the "Palace of Mind", so how could she remember such detailed and huge amounts of knowledge in detail?

The memory of a cultivator is also limited, otherwise there would be no need for so many jade slips to record knowledge.

He had some vague guesses about Yi Ling's situation.

In the past, he might not have had a way to deal with this situation.

But now, that’s not necessarily the case.

The magical power of "Palace of Thinking" originally developed in the direction of parallel thinking.

But after his operations, the growth direction changed.

There is an additional “mind-plundering” function.

This ability is probably not as good as the previous growth direction.

However, Yi Dong likes it very much.

This function can be seen as an enhanced version of Soul Search, but it is much stronger than Soul Search.

It can plunder the memory of all living things and convert it into text data and store it in the magical space.

Yi Dong vaguely felt that the growth of his supernatural powers was related to his memory.

For example, the previous growth direction was that Yidong read a lot of books and watched videos about parallel thinking in his previous life.

The current growth direction is that when Yi Dong was in school in his previous life, there was a time when he wanted to upload his memory to a computer to achieve immortality, so he read a lot of related papers.

Now, my magical power can allow others to upload their memories to the magical power space.

Yi Dong is now thinking about how to upload the memories that do not belong to Yi Ling to his own magical space.

It is not okay to resort to coercive measures.

Because that would mess up Yi Ling's brain.

When he was at Purple Mountain, Yi Dong would record the soul fluctuations of the five children almost every year.

Judging from the fluctuations of his soul, Yi Ling was not possessed by another body.

In this way, Yi Dong would naturally not harm Yi Ling.

Extracting memories is not a good thing for living things.

If there were other ways, there were also some spells to seal memories, but Yi Dong didn't want to use this method.

But he had never come into contact with that kind of magic, and that kind of magic was released directly on the soul. If one was not careful, it might cause serious damage to the soul.

Over the next three days, Yi Dong conducted experiments using the spiritual beasts and animals from Purple Mountain.

It is best to experiment on humans.

However, those used before were all Kunxu cultivators, and people from the fairyland had never been used for experiments.

Yi Dong was afraid that if he opened this door and lost control of himself, none of his five children would be able to save him.

In Yidong's yard.

"Father, I want to go see my mother, and then return to the temple."

Yi Ling walked into the yard and said to Yi Dong.

After Yi Ling returned to Purple Gold Mountain, he rarely relaxed his mind. He never used his telepathy from beginning to end and had no idea what Yi Dong was thinking.

Or rather, she was a little afraid to see Yi Dong's true thoughts.

Because she also roughly knew that her father had some doubts about her.

"Wait, can you tell me about yourself?

You should understand what I mean."

Yi Dong looked at Yi Ling.

“Only when problems are spoken out can solutions be found.”

Yi Ling hesitated and said:

"It's okay, it's just some memories. I've digested them now, and they don't affect me anymore."

"is it?
Interests, hobbies, temperament, and personality are formed as we grow up.

Do you still have the same interests as before?
You suddenly understand a lot of things, but without the cognitive process, the emotional experience in your memory is not your most real experience.

Those memories will also affect your future will and behavior.

In this case, are you still the same person?

Now that you have become the chief, I guess you must have easily defeated other opponents in the ranking theory.

But are you happy?

Your success is just a shortcut.”

After hearing what Yi Dong said, Yi Ling frowned.

In the past, she was not aware of these problems. She just felt that her thinking had not changed, so she thought that the memory had been digested by herself.

But these days, she finds herself becoming more and more merciful.

In the past, even though her personality was not as exaggerated and violent as Yi Qing's, she had no resistance to killing.

But now.

Seeing Yi Ling fell into deep thought.

Yi Dong knew that Yi Ling was already reflecting.

Yi Dong was also thinking about himself.

For me, Yi Ling is now much stronger than before. It is conceivable that her path to becoming a stronger person will be much smoother in the future, and I will also benefit from it.

However, humans are not plants or trees, and his heart is not as cold as he imagined.

After all, he couldn't bear to see his daughter become a different person.

Looking at Yi Ling's distressed expression.

“Don’t worry, I haven’t told you about the magical power I’m pregnant with.

My magical power is called 'Palace of Thought'."

Yi Dong introduced his magical powers and finally said:
"I will draw the memories that do not belong to you into my magical power. When you have more experience in the future, if you need them, I will slowly return these memories to you in the future."

It was the first time that Yi Ling heard of his father’s magical powers.

This magical power may seem of little use in combat, but it can not only preserve a large amount of knowledge but can also be used flexibly, which is a great help in research.

Hearing his father's words, Yi Ling hesitated.
"This memory is very huge. What if it affects you?"

Yi Dong didn't care.

"I have saved several books from intermediate Taoist academies in my magical power. Do you think the memory and information you have obtained can be compared with those books?
However, extracting memories requires your willingness, otherwise it will be harmful to your soul.

If you believe me, try it first."

Yi Ling glanced at Yi Dong.
"Well, let's try it first."

In the yard, Yi Dong and Yi Ling discussed the process and precautions of memory extraction, and then sat opposite each other at a stone table.

Clasp your right hands together.

Yi Dong’s magical power can’t even leave the body, he can only rely on physical contact.

As the two of them practiced their skills, the magic power circuits in their bodies extended out along their palms and came into contact with each other.

Mana circuits are composed of flesh, blood, and soul power. When mana circuits collide, it feels like a collision of souls.

Yi Dong felt that Yi Ling's magical patterns were extremely tough, more than twice as strong as his own magic circuits.

After vaguely sensing Yi Ling's soul.

The "Palace of Thought" began to operate.

Countless pieces of information were transmitted from Yi Ling's body into the magical space.

Yi Ling followed what Yi Dong said and responded to the memory first.

It felt like my thoughts had been turned into words. I forgot whatever I thought of. I stopped thinking about random things and focused on recalling the contents of my memory.

The magical knowledge that I remembered the last moment was forgotten the next moment.

This feeling is extremely uncomfortable, more painful than having thousands of needles piercing your head. It's as if those memories have taken root in your mind and are being violently pulled out.

Yi Dong soon felt something was wrong.

Before, when testing with spirit beasts, the magical power could easily "empty" the spirit beasts' brains.

Now, Yi Ling's memory, like pulling a spring, made him vaguely feel a kind of resistance.

This feeling is the first time I have encountered it.

"Are these memories alive?"

Yi Dong couldn't help but think, and then increased the power of his magical powers.

Inside the magical space of the "Palace of Thinking".

Some distorted words emitting black air appeared.

Those words were not formed into books or bamboo slips as in the past, nor did they float in space.

Instead, they gradually gathered together to form a human shape.

As more memories were injected, the human figure gradually took shape, vaguely revealing Yi Ling's appearance.

Yi Dong did not sense the changes in the magical space for the time being.

At this moment, his mind was always on Yi Ling, ready to disconnect the memory extraction at any time.

He didn't want to take away Yi Ling's original memory.

As time passed, Yi Dong felt something was wrong.

How can the amount of memory be so huge?

Could it be that what Yi Ling obtained was the memory of a Buddha who had lived for tens of millions of years?
Gradually, Yi Dong no longer had the mind to think about anything else.

At first, extracting memories was like pulling a spring, but now it is like dragging a mountain.

The mana circuits that make up the magical powers feel like they are overheating.

Yi Dong even felt that the magical space was shaking.

This was the first time that the magical space vibrated.

Yi Dong didn’t know the situation of the magical space, he just thought that this was the manifestation of the magical power operating to the extreme.

He had never used his supernatural powers to such an extent before.

Yi Ling was now in tears and looked extremely embarrassed, but he still gritted his teeth.

Seeing this, Yi Dong had no choice but to continue.

He didn't dare to gamble that after his magical powers were cut off, those "memories of life" would become resistant to his own magical powers.

These memories obviously carry special powers. If they are not extracted completely, they will probably be of no benefit to Yi Ling.

Yi Dong vaguely sensed that the magic power circuit in his body seemed to be damaged.

There was even a feeling that the magical space was about to explode.

If it were someone else, Yi Dong would have given up long ago.

But since his target was Yi Ling, he could only pray that his magical powers would be more powerful.

If the magic power circuits that constitute the supernatural power are damaged massively, the supernatural power will basically be disabled and there will be little room for future growth.

A long while passed.

Suddenly, Yi Dong felt a huge amount of information being pulled from Yi Ling's body into the magical space.

At the same time, Yi Ling also retracted the magical power patterns on his palm, and Yi Dong immediately interrupted his magical power.

Yi Dong's spiritual consciousness moved, and the magic tool controlling the formation in the yard started to work. A healing spell was cast through the formation, covering Yi Ling.

"what happened?"

Yi Dong saw Yi Ling's body soften and his eyes close.

He quickly used magic to support him.

"Forehead?

Fell asleep?"

When Yi Dong saw that Yi Ling was fine, he let her lie on the table and sleep.

Put your perception into the space of magical powers.

"what's the situation?"

Yi Dong was shocked.

In the magical space, one hundred bald and spiritual humanoid figures emitting black air formed a circle in the air.
