This is a path of self-persecution in researching tentacles.
Gu Xinghe's journey wasn't entirely smooth, but it could be said that he made some progress.
The problem was that although his tentacles, which were shrouded in black mist, could be touched by physical objects.
However, ordinary knives cannot cut through them directly; instead, they will be swallowed by the tentacles.
Even though Gu Xinghe tried to concentrate on changing this, he still couldn't seem to change this seemingly instinctive resistance.
Gu Xinghe looked at the knife in front of him, which looked as if it had been cut in half, leaving only the handle.
The scene before him made him want to cut off a piece of the tentacle to use as a research sample.
The idea of even cutting it into several pieces for comparative research failed.
The advantage lies in the fact that the mist tentacles are still considered part of one's own body.
Although it instinctively swallowed what it was cut off by the knife.
However, Gu Xinghe also discovered that he could issue a command to a certain tentacle to make it "wither".
After the tentacles "withered," they not only became separate from Gu Xinghe's own existence, but also lost their vitality.
Through research, Gu Xinghe discovered that after a part of the body was removed, the tentacles became something like tokens or coordinates.
To put it simply...
Gu Xinghe can communicate with another person to whom he gave the "withering" tentacles, achieving a communication effect similar to making a phone call.
If the distance is right, he can also find out the location of the tentacles or perform a long-range control maneuver.
This seems to have a similar effect to the fragment of the magic mirror that Eris gave him.
At the same time, it can also be seen as a manifestation of precise control over the parts of the body that have been separated after "evolution".
In addition, Gu Xinghe also discovered that the tentacles themselves are capable of self-replication.
Just like pollution, no matter how much it is removed, it will eventually return to its original state.
Originally, it obeyed his orders to "self-decay" and lost one of its tentacles.
A new tentacle will grow back shortly thereafter.
The number of tentacles was actually increasing as Gu Xinghe's strength grew.
But based on this, Gu Xinghe also discovered—
If he causes too many of his tentacles to "wither" in a short period of time, his own reproduction and regeneration rate will also slow down.
Just like the power of the magic mirror that Eris wielded.
After leaving the Tavern of Misfortune, which was like his stronghold, the power of the mirror will be greatly weakened.
However, the more the tentacles evolve, the more they devour the [Devour] branch skill.
The more powerful their subsequent skills and abilities become.
So, looking at the several sections of lifeless, withered tentacles in front of him, Gu Xinghe began a new round of experiments.
If ordinary knives cannot destroy the tentacles, then...
Gu Xinghe picked up a bottle of poison from the study.
The inactive tentacles feel somewhat soft to the touch, yet still retain some elasticity.
He then poured the poison onto the tentacle.
Soon, Gu Xinghe saw the tentacles turn into black ash, just like the poison had been sprayed on the centipede.
And if this poison were poured on one's own still-active tentacles...
Gu Xinghe quickly stopped himself from having such a truly suicidal idea.
At this moment, not only did the tentacles themselves feel threatened, but his mind was also constantly alerting him to the danger.
In reality, the poison itself wouldn't actually attract Gu Xinghe's excessive attention.
But what alarmed him was the idea of pouring this stuff onto his tentacles.
After calming his tentacles, which were now dancing wildly like demons, Gu Xinghe finally stopped his experiment.
After another week of self-adjustment.
Gu Xinghe felt that he was increasingly able to control the state of his tentacles wriggling around since leaving school.

At this point, the improvement in physical fitness is a clear indication of this.
The effects of Gu Xinghe's consumption of flesh and blood at the Dawn Boarding School have not stopped.
Instead, it has been continuously stimulated and manifested through his training these past few days.
At the same time, it was probably after they went further and further down the path of becoming inhuman.
Gu Xinghe organically combined tentacles, swordsmanship, and horsemanship, directly leading to the improvement of these two skills.
After reaching level 20, swordsmanship also gives rise to the [Body Coordination] branch skill.
Gu Xinghe felt that if he were asked to dance ballroom dance again now, he would definitely not be the "puppet" he was before.
In addition, perhaps the cats in the cafe do have a very good therapeutic effect.
Gu Xinghe's already precarious level of rationality is now getting closer and closer to passing with a score of 60.
