In the gathering place of the Tree Ghost Clan, hundreds of contracted ghosts are busy searching for valuable trees such as fruit trees and tea trees for their boss.
The Infant Tree Ghost was among them.
But he was very relaxed, leading Xiao Tao around leisurely. Anyone who didn't know better would think they were on a sightseeing tour!
Xiaotao has just transformed into a human and has only recently developed sentience, so she is very curious about everything.
"The environment here is so beautiful! Why doesn't our boss live here instead of digging up those poor trees?"
Ying Shugui patiently explained from the side: "Our boss is human. He can't stay in the Ghost Realm forever. He'll have to go back to the human world sooner or later."
Besides, we have our own little world, and the Sky Island Orchard, where the environment is just as beautiful. That's our true home.
Xiao Tao nodded as if she understood, "That's right, that's where I was born, that's our home."
Upon hearing "our family," Ying Shugui couldn't help but grin foolishly.
Suddenly, he sensed something and turned to look to his left.
Just then, Xia Tianqiong walked out of the void.
"Xiao Tao, come with me, I need your help with something."
Before Xiao Tao could speak, the Infant Tree Ghost asked first, "What are you going to do? Can't I go?"
Xia Tianqiong said, "You're not suitable, Xiao Tao is the most appropriate."
The Infant Tree Ghost suddenly became a little wary. "I want to go too. Maybe I can be of help!"
"Okay, let's go together."
After Xia Tianqiong finished speaking, he took them both into his body with a thought.
Then he took a step and his body entered the void.
Two or three minutes later, Xia Tianqiong re-entered the forbidden area and arrived at the foot of the large peach tree.
With a thought, he summoned the Infant Tree Ghost and Little Peach again.
"Wow, what a big peach tree! I suddenly have a feeling of familiarity with it."
"Haha, you're also a Peach Tree Ghost, so we're of the same kind and species. Of course, I feel a sense of familiarity with you."
As soon as they came out, they exclaimed in amazement at the big peach tree.
Xia Tianqiong couldn't help but smile when she heard Xiaotao's words.
"Xiao Tao, besides feeling familiar with this peach tree, what other feelings do you have about it?"
Xiao Tao tilted her head, thought carefully for a moment, and then said, "It feels like I've seen it before, and there's a sense of familiarity. I really want to hug it."
Xia Tianqiong nodded and smiled, "Do you want to know your origins?"
The Infant Tree Ghost suddenly interjected, "Her true form was once a Peach Tree Ghost. I think her name was Sister Peach. She should also have come from this gathering place of the Tree Ghost Clan, but she was later forced to her death by the boss."
"Get out of here. What do you mean she was driven to her death by me? She committed suicide because she couldn't think straight."
Xia Tianqiong cursed in an annoyed tone.
Then he pointed to the peaches on the tree crown and said to Little Peach, "Don't listen to his nonsense. I want to tell you that you were nurtured by a sacred peach and a withered branch of a sacred tree, so you are of the same lineage as this tree."
This information naturally came from the data provided by Manager Hu.
Every chieftain of the Tree Spirit Clan is cultivated using this method. It is said that such a chieftain can help the Tree Spirits advance faster and also make the sacred tree bear more sacred peaches.
When Xia Tianqiong went to the Leng family to attend the auction, she captured a peach tree monster called Sister Tao.
It is said that she is the successor to the next chieftain of the Tree Ghost Clan, which is why the Tree Ghost Clan went to great lengths to find the Void Ghost Clan and ended up fighting them.
Because she refused to be bound by Xia Tianqiong's contract, Sister Tao suppressed her own intelligence and turned into a peach tree.
This peach tree regained its sentience and became the little peach tree we know today.
Therefore, Xiaotao and the Sacred Tree are of the same origin.
"Oh, I see!"
Xiao Tao didn't seem to care much about it.
Xia Tianqiong continued, "I'm going to use you as an experiment, but there's some uncertainty."
If you succeed, you will become this sacred tree. If you fail, you may be injured. You shouldn't die, after all, I have mastered the art of resurrection.”
Xiao Tao nodded, which was taken as agreement.
Ying Shugui asked worriedly, "Boss, is it dangerous? Why don't you practice on me first, and then use Xiao Tao after you're more skilled?"
Xia Tianqiong ignored him and began to try out her guesses.
First, he used the power of reincarnation on Xiao Tao's body.
After enlightenment, the mastery of the power of reincarnation greatly improved, and its power also increased.
Almost instantly, a dark blue figure was extracted from Xiao Tao's body.
This is the consciousness body; the true scripture lies within it.
Xia Tianqiong then used a technique from the resurrection secret art to separate the true spirit from the consciousness body.
Then, holding the unseen and intangible true spirit in his palm, he walked to the big peach tree and slapped it directly into it.
As soon as Xiao Tao's true spirit merged into it, the entire peach tree suddenly lit up.
It emitted a dazzling light, so bright that Xia Tianqiong could hardly open his eyes.
"Who am I? Where am I? What's going on?"
Suddenly, a voice full of doubt came from inside the tree trunk.
Xia Tianqiong was overjoyed. Had they succeeded?
But she seems to have lost her memory!
That's right, amnesia is normal. The true spirit doesn't carry memories; memories reside in the conscious mind.
After Xiaotao's true spirit was extracted, her consciousness began to gradually dissipate.
Summer Qiong had a sudden inspiration and used the power of reincarnation to stuff Xiao Tao's original consciousness into the big peach tree.
This large peach tree is essentially a consciousness entity, but it lacks a true spirit and memories. Now that another consciousness entity has merged into it, it should be able to inherit Xiao Tao's original memories.
Sure enough, after a short while, Xiao Tao spoke again and had already regained her memories.
"Boss, I feel this is strange, is this how it will be from now on?"
Xiao Tao could sense the changes within herself; she seemed to have become countless times stronger in an instant.
