After stabilizing his strength at the five rings of the Zunjing Qulun, Xia Xiao began to focus on planting trees. It was not easy to plant a tree that could communicate with the magic energy in that space. Before communicating with his master, Xia Xiao repeatedly speculated whether his method was feasible, but due to lack of practice, he was always in fantasy. But the only difference between fantasy and reality was a nod or a shake of the master's head, so Xia Xiao did his theoretical homework and went to find him.

The reason why the vital energy can grow into a tree, symbolizing the practitioner's realm, is because the systematic method of practice allows people to begin gathering vital energy from the moment they begin practicing, making it become a seed in the dantian, like a source of strength.

This method is to prevent the energy from being dispersed in the body and unable to gather and release stronger power. The tree is just a rough image. Some people also transform their energy into a sea or a mountain. This is also feasible. It's just that one road is too crowded, so the rest of the people are too lazy to open up another road.

The perception and absorption of vital energy is slow, and the formation and growth of seeds is not a short process. The amount of vital energy absorbed will promote the growth of seeds into seedlings and trees. As for its state, it determines how much vital energy the practitioner can contain and how strong the power can be.

But the demonic energy is different!

Demonic energy does not need to be sensed, it exists in the Great Wilderness but is not needed by the Great Wilderness. It can also be said that if the Great Wilderness is without vitality, most of the flowers, plants, trees and creatures will be affected and begin to degenerate. Some creatures will even die due to the accelerated decay of their body cells due to the loss of vitality in their bodies.

If the wilderness is likened to a pillar, the height of the pillar is determined by the prosperity of the culture. And the vitality is the foundation stone at the bottom of the pillar. Without it, the pillar will collapse quickly.

If there were no demonic energy, the wilderness would not matter, and everything would proceed normally. But it suddenly broke into the human body, without the warmth of the vital energy, and it lingered in the human body, sometimes growing very fast, like a tsunami without any warning, which could break down the unprepared sea dam in an instant.

Because of this, it was difficult to establish a stable connection. Xia Xiao finally gathered the magic energy together, but as soon as he used his vital energy to move it or used the magic energy, it would disintegrate. But the master must have a way, Xia Xiao believed in this old naughty boy.

After knocking on the door of the carriage, Qing Xunzi's voice was heard. Xia Xiao went in, took off his shoes, sat cross-legged, and began to tell his master about his plan according to his master's instructions.

Xia Xiao wanted the demonic energy to take root in his body. Only when the roots go down deeper can the energy grow stronger. Because demonic energy is difficult to control, one tree is definitely not enough, so creating a sun is just right. Using the two in turn can share the burden, and the probability of Xia Xiao being overwhelmed by the demonic energy will be reduced.

After Xia Xiao finished speaking about the idea that he should have said a few days ago, he looked at his master. The latter kept nodding slightly, seeming to agree very much, but before telling about the method he had researched, he smiled and said:

"Interesting, only you can come up with such an idea."

Qing Xunzi thinks Xia Xiao is smart, but anyone who has watched a few episodes of cartoons knows that in addition to trees, the sun and the moon can also be used.

"Master, the systematic method of vital energy has existed for more than 30,000 years, and has been innovated countless times. Has no one created some methods to deal with demonic energy?"

"There are more and more practitioners in the world, and the overall trend is upward. It is very convenient to study. But to study the devil energy, you must touch it. Who do you think has the opportunity and courage to do this? Moreover, the existence of devil energy has been the enemy of all living beings since ancient times. Xu Yun in the past and you now are both known to the devil path, but have not been eliminated. Other than that, kill one if you see one."

"Master, let's not talk about this anymore. Tell me your method."

"Don't worry, it will work out. But I have to tell you in advance that once the tree takes root, it will be connected to your life. Once the black sun is formed, it will be your shadow, and you can't let it go. Even so, are you still willing to realize this wonderful fantasy and not strangle it in the cradle?"

It is true that no matter what you do, you have to pay a price. But if you become a demon, won't you never be able to return to the academy? Xia Xiao was tangled in his heart and couldn't answer for a while. Xia Xiao would not hesitate in the face of many things, but whether to plant trees and make a day is related to the rest of his life.

The master said that it was connected to his life, and he certainly couldn't perform any miracles, so Xia Xiao asked very cautiously:

"Master, can you pull the evil spirit out of my body now?"

"It's difficult. Besides, your demonic energy and the five elements are mixed together. If there is any mistake, your strength will drop drastically and it will be difficult to recover in a short time."

Xia Xiao bit his lip and kept silent in the dilemma, but Qingxunzi was not in a hurry and waited for him to make a choice. In one's life, there are many choices to make, and courage is needed behind every choice. Whether Xia Xiao is pulling the magic energy or planting trees, Qingxunzi will support him, but he will have to bear the consequences himself.

Opening his eyes, Xia Xiao felt a little tired and had lost his previous energy. He asked:

"Master, the relics in my body will be shattered by the evil spirit sooner or later. Is there any way to completely suppress the evil spirit?"

"After you plant trees and build a sun, the evil spirits will be contained. That way, they will no longer impact your body and mind. At most, they will make your head swell when you use them. If you can hold back, it will be equivalent to possessing the sixth power. But if you can't, you will still become a murderous monster."

"In that case, planting trees and creating a sun is easier than taking the risk of pulling out demonic energy."

"You can say that, but you have to know that once you plant a tree, your whole life will be connected to the Way of Devilry, and you can never go back."

There was a hint of amusement in Qing Xunzi's eyes, as if he was curious about what choice Xia Xiao would make. He really found it difficult to make a decision, and he was thinking with a cup of tea.

"Don't worry, take your time to think about it."

Xia Xiao nodded, feeling somewhat helpless. It was obvious that his master would not give him any more advice. Only he could make the decision on such choices, and he could not blame anyone when he regretted it.

When he was a child, Xia Xiao liked to go home and ask his mother and second sister whenever he encountered a problem, but now they are not around, and even if they are around, he will choose to deprive the magic energy. That thing will harm him for life, but Xia Xiao doesn't want to do that, not because of rebellion, but because he needs strength.

If one day, Yu Shangyan really wants to absorb the power in his body along with the spirit of life, he must have the strength to resist. The complete five elements in Xia Xiao's body are obviously not enough to deal with Yu Shangyan, because the gold spirit beast said that it is just a sword of the real gold spirit beast, while Ju Mang Huo Dou Xiao Yu and the earth spirit beast are respectively a seed, a flame, a tear and a stone. For such a comparison, Xia Xiao must be prepared in advance.

Although the demonic energy is not a good thing, Xia Xiao can't find any other power to use except it, because he already has all the power in the world. And the demonic energy is not only bad. If you want to get close to Hei Huang, you must rely on it, otherwise you can't sneak into the darkness. If you don't sneak in, everything you have done before will be in vain. But once you succeed in sneaking in, the amount of demonic energy will definitely increase, and you won't be able to pull it out. Not planting trees and making the sun will also cause trauma to the body, so it's better to make a decision early. As for the consequences, it's hard to bear now, but it's not certain in the future.
