The Demonic Saber finally left in a huff, and Lin Shuguang sat cross-legged to practice the Great Zen Meditation Soul Egress Technique.
According to the Demonic Saber, practicing this technique could strengthen his soul. Although Lin Shuguang's karma-tainted soul was a particular favorite of corpse worms, he also possessed a lightning attribute.
Given time, once his soul could command lightning, corpse worms would have no choice but to flee in terror and give him a wide berth.
How to imbue his soul with lightning rays had become Lin Shuguang's toughest obstacle.
He studied it for a full five hours, from morning until afternoon, experimenting countless times, only to fail every time.
"Lightning attribute..."
After pondering for a while, Lin Shuguang called Bai Heng. Ten minutes later, Bai Heng arrived carrying a black bag. "Director Lin."
Entering the Cultivation Room, Bai Heng laid out all the books in the bag. "There isn't much material on the lightning attribute. These are the only books the bureau has."
"That's fine." Lin Shuguang nodded to indicate that it was all right.
Bai Heng then took his leave, and Lin Shuguang began leafing through the bureau's few books on the lightning attribute, which contained some cultivation guidance.
One piece of information caught Lin Shuguang's attention.
"Treat the body as a vessel for nurturing lightning... Whoever proposed this idea didn't know about the soul's marvelous uses, but the approach was right. Unfortunately, no one has tried this method. It's all still theoretical."
After finishing the book, Lin Shuguang began experimenting.
He envisioned himself as a saber, then manifested the Slaughter Blade before him. While circulating the Great Zen Meditation Soul Egress Technique, he also split his attention to activate the Slaughter Blade's lightning rays.
Lightning flashed and crackled.
Unfortunately, he failed to draw any of it
