My Weekly Refreshing Mentor Spirit-Chapter 305 - 285: Divine Tree Jinchuriki
The Heart Stealer on the book page has completely exposed its true form, resembling a mist-like Soul Body, without a physical shape or facial features.
It looks like a cloud of smoke forcefully twisted into a shape, yet just this kind of creature is the true culprit causing such disaster and suffering in this world.
Angel Rachael’s expression twisted.
Although she has fully recovered now, she hasn’t forgotten the feeling of being hung on the Divine Wood like a skewer of pork belly, watching herself rot bit by bit. Originally, she thought killing the Heart Stealer this way would be too easy for it.
But now, seeing the controlled Heart Stealer, her mind instantly conjured over ten thousand methods of torture. She wanted to cut, slice, and chop this scoundrel a thousand times over and still not be enough.
However, this time Xue Dili restrained the angel’s revenge, making the already broken angel temporarily calm down a bit.
Because he suddenly discovered that there was a significant problem with the existence of the Heart Stealer species, to the extent that the Heart Stealer seemed unlike a biological entity, not even like an energy-based life form, but more like a pre-programmed existence.
After killing the Divine King, he immediately discovered the Divine King’s soul transmitted a self-destruct program.
He spent great effort to neutralize the self-destruct while retaining most of the Divine King’s Heart Stealer soul, but this made Xue Dili find it interesting.
Why would the Heart Stealer have such a self-destruct system? And their behavior logic? All of this made Xue Dili feel they were more like a form of intelligent program than a normal energy life form.
Thus, he wanted to thoroughly research this entity.
"I am a Transmigrator, what’s a Heart Stealer? I still remember living in Beifeng City, 58th Street, Building 12. You must believe me, don’t kill me! Don’t kill me!"
On the book page, the Heart Stealer’s soul seemed to still be howling.
But the information it provided was very intriguing.
Even now, it only considers itself as a Transmigrator, having crossed over from its original home to this world, then proceeded on a path to overthrow the previous angel and finally became a god.
It always believed the Divine Tree was its golden finger, a "system" or "cheat" given as a gift by the heavens, never questioning the origins of the Divine Tree, and completely trusting its effect of needing to consume humans to blossom and bear fruit.
Even though it had never seen a real Divine Wood Fruit.
All of this combined makes for a very intriguing situation.
Why had it never questioned the Divine Tree, trusted it unconditionally, even though its self-proclaimed "Transmigrator identity" was full of loopholes? Yet, the Heart Stealer subconsciously ignored those loopholes, firmly believing in its identity.
So Xue Dili extracted the essence of the Heart Stealer and placed it on the Teleportation Gate created by the Great Sage. After a period of searching, he found a bizarre coordinate.
That place is very likely the old lair of the Heart Stealer, or a base of the Apostles!
But Xue Dili did not rashly step in, cautiously preparing to clean up all the mess, and planned to enter after regrouping with the young general, ready to use the emergency communication device at any moment upon entry.
When the angel realized that place was indeed the Heart Stealer’s home, her formerly graceful expression instantly twisted grotesquely, appearing incredibly strained, as if her facial features were flying in disarray.
Clearly, upon knowing that the other side was very likely to be the Heart Stealer’s home, she had some very dark thoughts.
Rachael is not just a well-behaved young lady; she was born in the tribal era, most fond of slaughtering entire families. In the tribal era, various tortures and cruel methods were not uncommon, and she did not become a god by healing and saving people.
In unifying the tribes, countless tribes were massacred to gain her position and power.
It’s said her number of kills reaches beyond eight digits, so upon learning the Heart Stealer’s world, she’s absolutely thinking of using even more brutal methods to kill everyone there.
But now, it’s crucial to figure out how to deal with the Divine Tree in front of her.
"Foster father, we can only use the Sealing Technique." This was the method given by the World Consciousness.
The World Consciousness of Earth also offered the same method, throwing the Divine Wood into a Parallel World is actually the highest-level Sealing Technique, but clearly, this World Consciousness does not possess such capability.
If it really had such prowess, it wouldn’t be lying idle, yearning to recognize Xue Dili as its foster father.
"Wait a minute, can the sealing technique use me as a container?" Xue Dili suddenly had a good idea.
This idea left everyone present (or the world) stunned, whether it was World Consciousness, Rachael who just thought of wiping out the entire Heart Stealer tribe, or Lan Lin’Er who was feeling very melancholic after just killing her father, they all stared at him blankly.
"I suddenly realized that I’m actually a very suitable container to take away the Divine Tree. I possess the Cursed Blood and bacteriophage that can restrain the Divine Tree. We just need to set up a barrier of bacteriophages around the Divine Tree’s seal, and it will never be able to break out. Besides, I have a bunch of acquaintances who are experts at handling the Divine Tree." Xue Dili offered his idea.
His acquaintances, of course, were the Dragon Race, who are professionals at gnawing on tree roots. While it would indeed require a lot of the Dragon Race to team up and chew for a long time, there was a way.
He might even be able to use some of the Divine Tree’s power by driving the bacteriophages to summon wooden men or wooden dragons after sealing the Divine Tree within him.
World Consciousness was frozen by this plan and was about to refuse and try to persuade Xue Dili to give up when it thought more and more that this was a feasible plan.
After all, when there seemed to be no other options, why not try the idea? Mainly because Xue Dili had temporarily used bacteriophages to suppress the Divine Tree before.
Although the bacteriophage, originally planned as a backup plan in this battle, was not really used, just the Cursed Blood on the fists of the Giant God of Destruction during the battle ended up infecting a large part of the Divine Wood.
So, act on it as soon as you think of it!
World Consciousness, Rachael, and Lan Lin’Er decided to utilize the world’s authority, using the power of the entire world to try to seal the Divine Tree within Xue Dili.
Whether it was the destructive power left by the Giant God of Destruction or the invasion of the bacteriophage, or perhaps the world-level Divine Tree seal still couldn’t withstand it, in the end, after a long tug, the Divine Tree, along with all its root systems, was completely sealed into Xue Dili’s body.
A triangular technique array appeared on his abs, and the Divine Tree went into a rage as soon as it entered Xue Dili’s body, as if trying to extend tendrils to drain him dry.
But it was harshly suppressed by the Cursed Blood and the bacteriophage arranged in advance by Xue Dili.
Yet, even so, a large number of Divine Tree roots appeared in Xue Dili’s Consciousness Space, almost as if they were trying to penetrate it, only to be trapped by the bacteriophage-laden barrier.
"Mission accomplished, though it was a bit more challenging than I imagined, the containment of the Divine Wood is complete," Xue Dili sighed in relief, even though he didn’t expect the Divine Tree to cheat its way into the Consciousness Space by drilling in some roots after being sealed within his body.
But that’s not a big problem; under the suppressive power of the Cursed Blood, the rampaging Divine Tree was tamed.
The others also breathed a sigh of relief one after the other, and World Consciousness immediately said, "I’m going to sleep now, I’m exhausted, and my Great Angels, you must organize a perfect Angel Corps to prevent previous incidents from happening again..."
After saying this, the ethereal World Consciousness went offline.
The few exchanged glances and finally chuckled.
World Consciousness was actually afraid of incidents like Rachael’s previous failures and planned to organize a complete Angel Corps, including Blazing Angels responsible for combat, Wisdom Angels in charge of knowledge and training, Energy Angels responsible for energy...
By dividing all the roles in detail and designating appropriate personnel for each, coupled with the Giant God of Destruction correction mechanism created in Xue Dili’s Innovation Era, they could create a foolproof "High Tier Heaven" template.
This High Tier Heaven does not target the internal civilizations of the planet, only external ones, which is also due to Rachael’s past issues—she pampered humanity too much, actually stifling their development, ultimately leading to the Heart Stealer invasion disaster and the rampant traitors.
Thus, the world decided to allow humans and Demon Beasts to compete fairly, growing through adversity and perishing through comfort, in mutual competition they may develop.
But all the specifics and plans were entirely handed over to Lan Lin’Er, the Great Angel, while World Consciousness went slack.
So finally, Lan Lin’Er showed a clear yet silly expression towards Xue Dili, seemingly wanting to ask for guidance from her now sole pillar of support.
Just like how World Consciousness brainlessly threw its power to Lan Lin’Er and then ran away, Lan Lin’Er at this moment looked at Xue Dili with a gaze almost like looking at the "Prime Minister."
Xue Dili: "..."
"I don’t really understand any of this either; I’ve never practiced it. How about this, I know someone who specializes in politics and institutions. I’ll invite him over to act as your instructor." Xue Dili was referring, of course, to the Old Demon Emperor.
He is a master of rhetoric in politics and social structure, able to speak at length about various systems from primitive society to feudalism, theocracy, capitalism, and so on, with countless ideas for unleashing productivity and social development, but he has never put them into practice, only acting as an armchair strategist.
Anyone who takes him as a real life mentor, they are bound for a world of trouble.
Now, among the people he knows, the only one interested in this field and with practical experience, is the Old Demon Emperor who is currently hosting the largest martial arts tournament in that troubled world.
