Chapter 1356: Chapter 1353 Soul Threads Chapter 1356: Chapter 1353 Soul Threads “Xuanyuan's Divine Thunder?” Shen Luo had never heard this name before and muttered to himself.

“This thunder is an Ancient Divine Thunder. It's not surprising that Friend Shen has never heard of it. I only saw some records about this thunder in the Nine-Headed Insect's collection. Legend has it that during ancient times, when the Human Race Saint, Xuanyuan, and Demon Emperor Chi You competed for the world, a Divine Tree grew on the banks of Ji Water within Xuanyuan's territory. The tree was worshipped by all people for generations, eventually became sentient, and could emit Golden Lightning that specifically broke through Demonic Qi, protecting the Human Race. Saint Xuanyuan took the core of this Divine Tree to forge various Demon Breaking Divine Weapons, which ultimately led to the defeat of Chi You and the Demon Clan. That tree was revered as the Xuanyuan Divine Tree, and the Golden Divine Thunder was known as Xuanyuan's Divine Thunder,” explained Bashe.

“So that's how it is.” Shen Luo's eyes widened slightly, his mind deeply stirred.

It seems that the Demonslaying Divine Sword was also one of the Divine Weapons forged by Saint Xuanyuan using the Divine Tree, which is why it can release Xuanyuan's Divine Thunder.

“Does the Xuanyuan Divine Tree still exist today?” he then asked.

The Pure Yang Sword's power is still not strong enough. If I could find some pieces of Xuanyuan Divine Wood and integrate them into the sword, it would surely increase its power significantly and also add the ability to break through demonic energy.

“The Xuanyuan Divine Wood disappeared during Ancient Times; now, where could one find it?” Bashe, noticing Shen Luo's intentions, said with a wry smile.

“I asked Bashe to monitor the movements of Wansheng Princess and others, has there been any unusual activity?” Shen Luo also knew that what he desired was too ideal, he changed the subject and asked.

“Without your asking, I was about to report that Wansheng Princess left Yunmeng Marsh with a mysterious shadow and the Mirage Demon yesterday. Their movements were very secretive, and had my Cultivation not been largely restored and had I not set up detection spells all over Yunmeng Marsh, I would have hardly noticed them. However, where they went after leaving Yunmeng Marsh, I do not know,” said Bashe with a serious expression.

“Is that so? The Mirage Demon is still alive! You go back and continue to observe the changes in Yunmeng Marsh, and report anything to me in time. These two pieces of Spiritual Material contain abundant Lightning Attribute spiritual power, which will be greatly beneficial for your cultivation,” said Shen Luo, originally asking casually and not expecting real issues, while taking out two lightning-attributed spiritual items from the Spirit Cave and giving them to Bashe.

“Heavenly Thunder Crystal! Thundercloud Flower! Thank you, Brother Shen, with these two items, soon I will be able to restore my True Immortal Stage cultivation,” Bashe said with gratitude and joy upon seeing the items.

The Heavenly Thunder Crystal and Thundercloud Flower are nearly extinct treasures. Their value is no less than that of the Ginkgo Spirit Fruit, and Bashe was genuinely moved that Shen Luo was willing to part with them for her.

Shen Luo gave a slight smile. Although these two items contained immense spiritual power, they also had many impurities and were stuck together, making them difficult to refine. They were of little use to him, but for an Exotic Beast like Bashe, with its intrinsic space for swallowing all things, they could efficiently utilize the treasures.

After encouraging Bashe a few words, he cast a spell to send her back to Yunmeng Marsh.

After dispatching Bashe, he took another look at the Slayer's Broken Sword in his hand and then stored it in his Dantian along with the Pure Yang Sword.

Both the Xuanyuan Divine Wood and Xuanyuan's Divine Thunder had been lost to time, and knowing about them didn't bring much benefit, but at least he had clarified the origins of the Slayer's Broken Sword, making his efforts worthwhile.

Shen Luo then exhaled lightly, calming his emotions, and began circulating the Divine Wood Grace to purify his original vitality, reducing the impact of the surging Demonic Qi as much as possible.

The Divine Wood Grace is an ultimate Wood Attribute God's Power that can absorb Wood Spirit Power, and within the Bodhi Secret Realm, there were numerous Wood Spirit items. As he began to use Divine Wood Grace, large amounts of pure Wood Spirit Power gathered from all directions and merged into his body.

Shen Luo's body was engulfed in a bright green light, and the speed of his injury recovery accelerated significantly.

He swiftly regulated this Wood Spirit Power, aiding the Great Unsealing Technique.

“Eh!” Shen Luo suddenly opened his eyes.

Within the gathered Wood Spirit Power was a very special stream that was not only extremely effective in healing physical wounds but also contained wisps of ethereal breath. It actually flowed up into his mind, merging into his Divine soul.

Shen Luo felt a momentary refreshing sensation in his brain. This sensation quickly faded, and the Divine soul in his brain, which had started to solidify due to practicing the 'Thought-as-swift-as-thunder Technique,' had indeed become much more condensed.

“What is this Wood Spirit Power? It greatly aids my cultivation of the 'Thoughts as Swift as Lightning' technique!” Shocked, he hurriedly closed his eyes to sense the source of the spiritual power.

Contrary to his expectations, this spiritual power was actually emanating from inside the Carefree Mirror.

Shen Luo's Divine Sense penetrated into the Carefree Mirror, and soon he discovered the source of the spiritual power–it was the storage bag tied to the waist of the True Immortal Green Wolf.

“A Storage Magical Tool? Could it be that thing?” A thought flashed through his mind, and he waved his hand to take out the storage bag, giving it a shake.

A flash of white light at the mouth of the bag was followed by a clattering sound as a large pile of items appeared on the ground, including all sorts of Spiritual Materials, Magical Treasures, Elixirs, and other valuable things.

He paid no attention to the other items, his gaze landing on a section of emerald green tree branch. It was the very one that the Green Wolf had previously cut from the Bodhi Holy Tree, still bearing a green round fruit.

That peculiar Wood Spirit Power was being emitted by the green fruit.

“It really is the Bodhi Fruit. Fu Donglai had mentioned earlier that the Bodhi Holy Tree could nourish and heal the soul, and it's indeed true!” Shen Luo's eyes lit up as he carefully picked the green fruit.

Unsure of how to use the Bodhi Fruit, or whether it could be swallowed whole, he hesitated for a moment before deciding to be cautious. He held the fruit in his palm and continued to draw the spiritual power from it with the Divine Wood Grace.

Without the obstruction of the Carefree Mirror and storage bag, the spiritual power of the Bodhi Fruit poured into his body like floodwaters bursting a dam, his physical wounds healing at a visible rate, fully recovered within half a moment.

The ethereal power from within the Bodhi Fruit also continually infused into his mind, accelerating the refining of his Divine Sense.

Shen Luo ignored the situation at the Heavenly Pit, closing his eyes to operate the 'Thoughts as Swift as Lightning' technique, refining the power of his Divine Soul.

Dots of crystal light emerged between his eyebrows, growing brighter and brighter.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the crystal light between Shen Luo's eyebrows suddenly burst forth brilliantly, transparent crystal threads shooting out in all directions.

Shen Luo opened his eyes, filled with joy.

Thanks to the power of this Bodhi Fruit, he had finally taken a crucial step in cultivating the 'Thoughts as Swift as Lightning' technique. His Divine Soul had crystallized, reaching the realm of Soul Threads.

The Soul Threads spread out far and wide, the range of his exploration expanding by more than thirty percent, and the details of what he sensed were much clearer than before.

Shen Luo wasn't too concerned about the results of his Divine Sense exploration. Having reached the realm of Soul Threads, he could finally use many of the secret techniques recorded on the Sky Machine Scroll. Without going into detail, the final step of refining the Sky Fiend Corpse King could now begin.

Through the previous encounter, he had gained a profound understanding of the terrifying strength at the Taiyi Stage. If he could complete the Sky Fiend Corpse King, he would possess a helper at the Taiyi Level, giving him the confidence to face opponents like the Six-tusked Elephant King and others.

Elder Gui of Mount Fangcun, and even the Bodhi Ancestor, seemed to have some misunderstandings about him, even suspecting him of being a spy, but Shen Luo was not a man of narrow-mindedness. He bore no grudge against them, nor did he leave them to die.

If the Divine Demon Well were truly to be opened, the consequences would be unimaginable!

With that thought, he immediately began to act, urging the prohibitions all-around to envelop the Mountain Cave in layers, then took out the Sky Fiend Corpse King, along with the Undying Wood Coffin, all together.
