The ocean air felt salty and foul the closer they came to the demon empire's coast. He held out his arm towards the visible land while gathering his energy, constantly drawing vitality from the air.
Vital energy, or the type of divine energy he awakened when surpassing the mortal limit, existed in everything.
Mana, Qi, Anima, Animus, blood, and even bodily fluids.
All of these were inferior forms of pure vital energy, the source of life and the substance that allows a world tree to root itself and grow.

World trees could use all of these powers and purify them into pure, vital energy.
