Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2576: Chapter 2577: Mutual Generation and Restraint

Once the totem manifests in the world, it is incomparable to an incarnation. It will bring ruin to the entire space-time channel!

Therefore, nearly all tribes choose not to cultivate totems! Because this is not ambition but pure folly!

Once a totem is born, it will violate the original contract, becoming something other than the guardian beast of the tribe, and often the first to be destroyed by the totem is the tribe that once restrained it!

Back then, the totem was subdued by powerful beings who forced it to sign a contract, agreeing to serve as the tribe’s guardian beast!

So, while totems appear to protect the tribe, in reality, each totem harbors deep hatred towards the tribe!

This point is naturally understood by those tribes possessing totems, so nearly none cultivate them, allowing them to cultivate autonomously!

Yet, the Moonwater Tribe has made such a foolish choice.

Still, right now, no one is blaming the Moonwater Tribe. People from other tribes are fleeing in droves; this is a disaster for other tribes!

If the Moonwater Tribe’s totem incarnation had appeared, it would just change the pattern of the space-time channel. After all, figures like the Kunshan Tribe’s Clan Leader could contend with a totem incarnation, and with the tribe’s strength, the totem incarnation couldn’t act at will!

But the manifestation of a totem is not trivial! It’s a catastrophic calamity for other tribes!

It might even threaten all cultivators within the space-time channel!

Years ago, there was a prophecy from a great figure that the space-time channel would eventually become the realm of the totem beasts, for the totem’s manifestation was inevitable.

The power of the totem is inherently strong, and even if restrained with no cultivation, its strength will slowly grow, albeit at an extremely slow pace.

But the totem’s lifespan is extraordinarily long, so the prediction of that great figure is not without foundation, but cultivators value immediate benefits, not future events, with no interest or concern for matters of years to come.

Roar!

A roar rang out, accompanied by a violent energy storm, so intense it swept many weaker cultivators into the sky.

Ye Luo and the others’ expressions drastically changed; even the roar alone was so ferocious, to what degree was its power truly formidable!

Ye Luo had always thought the presence of a virus allowed him to ignore the totem, at least he didn’t hold the totem in his mind!

But now it seems that his previous thoughts were foolish!

Not to mention anything else, how could he even approach the totem? If he couldn’t get close, how could the totem be poisoned?

Ye Luo suddenly frowned, feeling that something was off.

If a totem can manifest, why bother creating an incarnation? Isn’t that redundant?

After all, a totem incarnation also consumes totem power, but compared to the main body, its strength is worlds apart, so why would the totem deplete its strength pointlessly?

”It’s mutual generation and restraint!” Princess Xiu suddenly said.

Ye Luo was slightly stunned, clearly understanding her words, but how did this relate to the totem?

”They exploited my mother’s benevolence!” Princess Xiu said angrily.

”Ye Luo, years ago, the Moonwater Tribe’s Clan Leader saved my mother, who was with my elder sister at the time, before I was born. Without the Clan Leader’s rescue, my mother, sister, and I might not have survived. But later, the Clan Leader suddenly contracted a strange illness, and my mother personally treated him, eventually teaching him a mysterious technique, which was the mutual generation and restraint cultivation technique. Yet the Clan Leader still ultimately perished, leaving the matter unresolved!”

Princess Xiu fell silent as the Ice Princess began to explain.

”Could this be a grand scheme by the Moonwater Tribe?” Ye Luo murmured to himself, frowning.

”Certainly, but it had nothing to do with the Clan Leader at that time. He was very good to my mother and had a good character. Clearly, the problem lies with others!” Princess Xiu said coldly.

”Princess Xiu, it’s not safe to stay here long, we should retreat quickly!” The Kunshan Tribe’s Clan Leader shouted to the group.

Facing the totem’s manifestation, he also couldn’t remain calm.

After all, he is no different from other cultivators in front of the totem.

Luckily, after the totem’s roar, it didn’t immediately fly over but continued to walk slowly on the ground, seemingly curious about the surroundings.

At the moment, the summit of Qingxiu Peak was in chaos, with many clan members affected.

But Princess Xiu couldn’t care for the clan members, nor ordinary people, as even cultivators were as insignificant as grass before the totem.

This has evolved into a disaster throughout the space-time channel.

”Retreat! Where can we retreat to?” Princess Xiu laughed bitterly, ”I won’t leave Qingxiu Peak!”

Her face was resolute.

Boom!

At that moment, the totem suddenly swung its arm, instantly rendering the Moonwater Palace to nothing!

Even the Kunshan Tribe’s Clan Leader gasped at this power.

”Damn it, why did this happen! Several of my tribe’s geniuses just entered the Heart Cultivation Hall! This is quite troubling!” the Kunshan Tribe’s Clan Leader said, frowning.

”Princess Xiu, can the Heart Cultivation Hall be opened earlier?” the Kunshan Tribe’s Clan Leader asked immediately.

Evidently, he hadn’t given up on those geniuses, the totem heirs.

”If sufficient resources are provided, it can naturally be opened!” Princess Xiu replied.

”Great! Then please, Princess, lead me to the Heart Cultivation Hall to retrieve my undisciplined disciples!” the Clan Leader said immediately.

Princess Xiu didn’t refuse, just nodded slightly, leading him straight to the Heart Cultivation Hall.

Ye Luo realized she wanted to repair the Heart Cultivation Hall quickly and, unrelated to him, didn’t follow, focusing on observing the totem’s movements.

His gaze fell on the totem’s incarnation.

Just now, the Ice Princess explained the principle of the mutual generation and restraint cultivation technique again, and Ye Luo understood more about the totem incarnation.

Strictly speaking, an incarnation and the main body exist as one; the death of an incarnation represents considerable loss to the main body, though not life-threatening!

However, then the main body must return to the lake, and to manifest again, it must cultivate another incarnation.

The complexity of this cannot be described in a few words.
