Chapter 2393

"Separate body? What does that mean?" Everyone was puzzled.

Xiao Feng explained: "This divine soul essence contains a fragment of memory; pieced together it gives a rough impression. It wasn't originally just this small bit, but a large mass born in some dark space. Then some force tore it apart into twelve pieces, which the Space Turbulence carried to different places. The piece I consumed is just one of them."

This treasure is called the Imperial Soul because its essence is the internal divine soul essence.

The external life essence is a protective layer formed after the division, as the Imperial Soul autonomously absorbs and condenses surrounding energy.

The Red Leaf Tree King has limited talent and little wisdom, lacking the ability to fully absorb its effect.

Now that it has fallen into Xiao Feng's hands, the value of its divine soul essence has finally been recognized.

"Even a single piece is already precious; if we were to find the other eleven and consume them all, wouldn't that be..."

Shen Chuo

Xiao Feng gave a bitter smile: "I'm afraid we won't get that chance. This thing came here via the Space Turbulence; the other parts might be several light-years away, or even tens of thousands of light-years away—finding them would be nearly impossible."

This is harder than finding a needle in a haystack—searching a universe for eleven divine soul essences the size of peach pits; not to mention just the few of us, even if a Dao Ancestor came, they might not necessarily find them.

"What exactly is this thing? Why is it so precious?" Shen Chuo asked, puzzled.

Xiao Feng said: "I'm not entirely clear either; this divine soul essence is only one-twelfth, and the information it conveys is very limited. However, judging by its quality, it should be a high-end rare quintessence of the Soul Law path."

Red Leaf Forest

Having been absorbed, it is not a Supreme Treasure; it can only be classified as top-tier rare quintessence.

It can strengthen the soul, so it naturally belongs to the Soul Law lineage. As for its preciousness…… barring any mishap, a complete Imperial Soul would be of cosmic treasure-grade.

Across the entire universe, there probably aren't even a few other things of the same category and level!

"Never mind that, let's first refine and absorb it."

Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden

Anyway, obtaining even one piece is already a great opportunity; there's no need to be greedy.

Lady Mysterious Maiden

The remnants of the Red Leaf Tree branches on the ground are actually treasures as well.

Han Zichen and the others did not rush to cultivate; instead, they split up to gather the red leaves, branches and roots, as well as the treasures left by their predecessors.

In the process of resisting the Law Turbulence, many treasures were damaged, and many Star-level masters left no remains, their origins having been erased.

Spiritual Essence

If they were to swallow all these things privately, it would be enough for them to eat their fill, and they would not have to worry about treasures and resources for a long time to come.

After securing the treasures, everyone also sat down and calmly absorbed the vital essence.

The seven people closed their eyes to cultivate, each keeping part of their mind alert to the surroundings.

However, when a powerful expert arrived, they still did not notice.

A white-robed Nine Heavens Xuan Nu arrived nearby holding a bronze sword, hovering in the air and gazing at Han Zichen, Xiao Feng, and the others.

She had originally heard that this place encountered a strong law turbulence, so she rushed over specially to save her disciple, but unexpectedly was detained by the enemy, causing a delay.

Fortunately, Han Zichen was unharmed, and Xiao Feng and the others were still alive.

"Strange, how come all those Star-level ones have not

All those Star-level ones have vanished, yet only they are unharmed—could it be that this child Xiao Feng has become so strong as to protect others within the law turbulence?" Xuan Nu was greatly puzzled.

She stood still in the air without moving, silently guarding everyone.

After a while, as the effects of the pure treasures were absorbed and refined, the auras of all seven began to change.

The six who devoured the vital essence saw their life force surge, starting from the mid and late stages of the planetary level and beginning to advance toward higher realms.

As for Xiao Feng, his life force hardly changed, but his soul aura was rapidly growing!

One day, two days, three days……

The time spent absorbing the pure essence was much longer than imagined, far longer.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed.

Xuan Nu remained motionless the whole time, not in a hurry to seek her own opportunity.

During this period, many native lives of the primordial world entered within a five‑kilometer radius of this place, but she directly expelled them with her Divine Sense, not daring to let them approach.

Even those who originally lived in this area were suppressed by her aura, unable to move, lying prone on the ground for a full month.

After a month, the auras of Han Zichen and the others gradually stabilized.

At that moment, a strand of Divine Sense suddenly made contact with Xuan Nu.

"Senior Xuan Nu, when did you arrive?"

Xiao Feng's Divine Sense detected the Nine Heavens Xuan Nu.

She could not help but show a look of surprise: "You actually can sense my presence?"

Xiao Feng himself was also quite surprised.

After refining the imperial soul, his soul grew stronger day by day; now his willpower has soared to the peak of the Star level, and he has already set one foot into the threshold of the Eternal level.

Thus, in a daze, he sensed that nearby there seemed to be an extremely powerful being guarding them; upon careful inspection, he realized it was

the Xuan Nu Lady.

"You are too close; I unintentionally sensed the fluctuation of your Divine Sense," Xiao Feng explained.

The two were less than a kilometer apart; for Star‑level and Eternal‑level masters, this is practically face‑to‑face, allowing them to clearly sense each other's breathing, so it was easy to notice.

Xuan Nu nodded slightly and praised: "It seems your Luck is not bad, and you have also gained a fortunate opportunity."

"Yes, this time my Luck is indeed good. Zichen and the others have also improved; we have all become stronger," Xiao Feng replied, knowing that Xuan Nu is an ancient senior with a broad mind who would not quarrel with him over a bit of treasure.

Xuan Nu replied: "Since you already possess this strength, I will not linger here. Zichen will wake up soon; there is no need to tell her I was here."

Having said that, she flashed her figure and vanished from the spot.

Xiao Feng smiled inwardly.

Senior Xuan Nu did this so that Han Zichen would not feel that someone was protecting her, thereby causing her to relax and become negligent, and when danger arose she would simply give up and wait for others to rescue her.

From Han Zichen's perspective, her master was cold and aloof, completely indifferent to the life and death of disciples.

But in fact, she had been secretly caring and silently protecting.

Such a good master is enviable.

Soon, Han Zichen and the others finished their training.

Six people opened their eyes one after another, and their auras became much stronger.

"My Li Ti seems to have touched the threshold of the initial Star-level," said Zhi An Bing Feng, surprised.

His Li Ti is the strongest among them.

"I've also reached 8500 times gene strength; this harvest is huge!" exclaimed Yu Xi, who previously had the weakest physique.

Jumping from 3000 times to 8500 times in one go, the improvement of one month, can

Comparable to accumulating a thousand years!

"I'm around 8750 times; reaching the Star-level is imminent," said Zhuo Yijian as well, and the second-to-last is already nearing 9000 times.

Han Zichen and the others need not say more; they all exceeded 9000 times gene strength.

But this is only the Li Ti.

Their willpower and law comprehension haven't reached that level; there's still a way to go before reaching Star-level.

"Fellow Daoist, you also seem to have grown stronger; your willpower has almost formed an aura, making it impossible to even sense your aura." Xue Ningzhen looked at Xiao Feng, surprised.

Previously, although Xiao Feng was stronger than them, one could still roughly sense what stage his cultivation was at.

But now, Xiao Feng, they cannot see through him.
