Cultivating with Symbiosis Panel

Li Ye was indeed not wrong; even when it comes to "cruelty," the Four Seasons Sect is far more formidable than the Hell Path.

Throughout the long years, the Four Seasons Sect has undergone numerous changes, including some extreme cases.

Because of this, cultivators have developed Divine Techniques to deal with these matters.

For instance... the one Li Ye is about to use.

Meaning the Dharma Method of forcibly searching through the memories of Spirit Beasts or Spirit Plants for the required information.

This Dharma Method in the Four Seasons Sect is considered shelved, but researching it always has significance and extreme situations.

As a Spirit Plant Master, Li Ye naturally had to learn this Dharma Method to handle some extreme scenarios.

He gazed at the Demon-Suppressing Tree; more precisely, it should be the Demon-Suppressing Tree already bonded through the panel and the Guardian Envoy named "Guardian Puppet Tian Zi."

The Demon-Suppressing Tree, this Spirit Plant, is very special. When Li Ye initially acquired what was essentially a seed that every Spirit Plant Master possessed, he didn't pay much attention.

After all, once used, this thing would be heinous enough to warrant being planted into the tree for the "distinguished guests" to experience; these distinguished guests were few and many at the same time.

Therefore, at the time, even though its binding range was very broad—any Spirit/Demon Beast related to the Demon Path—Li Ye did not use it.

Unexpectedly, this time it was put to use.

Moreover, thanks to its benefit, after employing the Five Elements Spirit Control Technique and becoming the master of the Guardian Envoy, he directly planted it, successfully making the Guardian Envoy unable to self-harm or do anything.

The Guardian Envoy could not believe it:

"How did you trap me?"

"I should have returned to Hell..."

"You shameless thief, imprisoning demon..."

"You dare... Ah!!!"

Before she could utter more offensive words, Li Ye unceremoniously began extracting her memories.

Using the Emotion Song and the Memory Extraction Technique studied by the Four Seasons Sect, she soon fainted amidst rolling her eyes, as memory orbs queued before Li Ye's eyes, clearly visible.

However, seeing such clear memories made Li Ye suspicious:

"Strange."

"So confident that they wouldn't be caught by us?"

"No defensive Forbidden Technique in the memories, or is this intentionally shown to me?"

If such things as memories are leaked, it amounts to exposing everything under the sun; major sects generally impose restrictions on disciples. He originally worried about not encountering anything that would cause the Guardian Envoy to suddenly explode.

So, is it the panel's merit? Or the speciality of the Memory Extraction Technique, or are they truly confident they won't be caught?

"Regardless, the memories are already in front of me."

He didn't dwell too much and began examining these memories—this mostly included the Guardian Envoy's entire process from birth to being sent here as a guardian.

Actually, useful things were not many.

Those who created her were all shrouded in Mana light that could not be peered through, and her dispatch process was also blurry; the only useful information was the source of her spirituality.

As a puppet, her spirituality certainly couldn't be slowly accumulated through sensing the Sun and Moon Essence amidst the mortal world or heaven and earth, but through consuming something.

A kind of ink-made orchid, whose form is not of the elegant beauty standing isolated from the world, but horrifying, with wails of life-spanning its last breath on every petal.

Only after consuming these orchids did her spirituality cease to be vague, and it was precisely then that she heard some voices:

"The Four Seasons Demon Sect's boy surnamed Jiang dared to intrude into that place."

"Does he seek learning the Buddhist sect bald monk's 'Hell is Empty, Vows Not to Become a Buddha'?"

"That place has nothing but worldly overflowing suffering; even his Heart Power absolutely cannot persist for long."

"Furthermore... isn't Heart Power what the ancestor of the Four Seasons Demon Sect granted us?"

The voices were very calm, like discussing some strange matter.

The memory paused for a moment here and plunged into darkness.

After approximately a hundred years' passage in memory time, the Guardian Envoy finally awakened, hearing another voice:

"The bloodline of that guy from the Ninth Layer of the Celestial Palace in the Four Seasons Demon Sect? Xiguang Village?"

"Hehehe... If that guy saw his bloodline being so cruelly treated during his descent, would his Dao heart remain stable?"

"Let this puppet go; that guy spent his lifetime proving that their produced grain sufficed to nourish everyone, so let her offspring taste the flavor of grain being seized..."

"Bring Heart Power along as well."

At this point, the memory became clearer, no longer just voice but scenes seen by the Guardian Envoy.

For hundreds of years, she remained here, maintaining surveillance and "allocation" over Xiguang Village, letting them exist in dying and not dying, hunger and torment.

Making people inside Xiguang Village feel desperate and willingly turn to their Other Shore City.

"Tsk."

"Not killing you feels suffocating."

Li Ye finished viewing these memories; such cruel conduct instinctively made him feel somewhat nauseated—why not confront the Four Seasons Sect, why treat mortals this way?

Just to prove their doctrines that defy the Celestial Dao?

He initially intended to package these memories to bring back for sect's verdict, but suddenly noticed that recently, right before the fox transported him here, a strange thing appeared in her memory.

Like an abruptly inserted segment of memory.

In the memory, the Guardian Envoy respectfully prostrated with five points to the ground, not daring to cast her vision or even Divine Sense out, able to see only the cloth-shod foot and the hem of the Taoist Robe in front.
