"I… I am glad that I planted the demon tree beforehand."
Breathing heavily, Aksai opened his eyes and looked at the demon tree with gratitude. The tree's branches swayed gently, as if acknowledging his unspoken thanks.
"But this… I never thought the demon tree could help me recover from soul-based injuries."
He marveled at the rapid recovery, feeling the demon tree's energy coursing through him, revitalizing both his body and soul.
"Thank you, my friend," Aksai murmured, resting his back against the tree trunk. He watched as the demon tree continued to feed on the Flesh Pumpkins, its branches moving gracefully.
With a renewed sense of determination, Aksai thought about his next steps. "Luck came back to me after I became unlucky. Hehe," he mused aloud and chuckled.
His face then became serious as he thought of what had just happened to him. "The Anahant Soul Splitting Technique is profound, but it's also incredibly risky."
