No wonder Nie Lanxi was so powerful, no wonder he was always so unpredictable, no wonder he could trigger such shockwaves, no wonder he had such a cultivation base at such a young age!

After seeing that divine power, everything made sense.

This divine power was unlike the god-level divine power Ji Jiayu had absorbed before. Its quality was much higher and its quantity much greater, like the Moon God hiding within Nie Lanxi's body in the form of divine power.

Was it safe? This shouldn't be innate, right? It wouldn't involve a secret awakening ritual, would it? Ji Jiayu was a little worried.

And these sacred beasts, how did Nie Lanxi know them and become acquainted with them? At this moment, Ji Jiayu had too many questions to ask Nie Lanxi. He took a deep breath and placed his right hand on Nie Lanxi's shoulder.

All this time, Nie Lanxi hadn't been cultivating, but was trying to control the energy in his body. Right now, he seemed to be trying to control the energy of a complete ninth-order, but he had underestimated the power of that energy, causing it to overflow slightly, resulting in abnormal divine power fluctuations.

What Ji Jiayu had to do now was very simple: absorb the overflowing divine power from Nie Lanxi's body.

By himself, he certainly couldn't contain so much divine power. He only possessed fifth-level divine power, and even if the divine power overflowing from Nie Lanxi was only a part of his body, it exceeded the amount of divine power in his entire body.

But didn't he have the Sacred Pearl? He only needed to use himself as a transit point to inject the divine power into the Sacred Pearl.

He saw the divine power in his palm spin rapidly, forming a small vortex. The vortex emitted a burst of devouring power, immediately allowing the god-level divine power waiting to explode outside Nie Lanxi's body to find a place.

The majestic energy flowed towards the vortex in Ji Jiayu's palm like a flooding river, and then crashed into the sacred circuits in Ji Jiayu's body.

He had actually used the Holy Radiance Orb to activate his Sacred Form, but in the face of that majestic energy, his divine circuits were still too narrow.

The divine power rolled and surged, impacting Ji Jiayu's divine circuits, causing his body to convulse. But he endured the pain and channeled the divine power into the Sacred Light Pearl.

After the divine power entered the Sacred Light Pearl, it was like a basin of water splashing into the ocean, failing to cause even the slightest ripple.

A large amount of god-level divine power overflowed from Nie Lanxi's body. The process of absorbing it and then injecting it into the Sacred Light Pearl was extremely long, and Ji Jiayu endured unimaginable pain throughout the entire process.

This pain was caused by the high-quality divine power impacting his divine circuits. However, he could sense that this energy from Nie Lanxi's body was still the same root and origin as his divine power, so while impacting his divine circuits, it was also slowly repairing them.

According to the "break and then build" cultivation method, after this experience, the tenacity and width of his divine circuits would increase, and he could be considered a blessing in disguise.

Three minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and Ji Jiayu was drenched in sweat.

The tabby cat beside him glanced at Ji Jiayu, showing a hint of satisfaction. "It's okay."

Just as Ji Jiayu was about to lose his temper, Nie Lanxi suddenly spoke.

When Ji Jiayu heard this, he immediately stopped the vortex in his palm, but the sacred circuit still caused him a burning pain. He immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and cast a sacred healing wind on himself. At the same time, he also used his divine power to repair the sacred circuit.

In the process, Nie Lanxi ended his cultivation first and stood up.

Looking at Ji Jiayu, who was drenched in his clothes before him, Nie Lanxi's expression remained indifferent, but there was clearly a surge of emotion in his golden eyes.

An hour passed, and Ji Jiayu's sacred circuit finally returned to its normal temperature. Although it still hurt a little, it was bearable. So he ended his cultivation and slowly opened his eyes.

What he saw was Nie Lanxi grilling fish.

The fire burning beneath the wooden grill wasn't fueled by firewood, but by golden sacred flames composed of divine power. Charred by the flames, the fish dripped with oil and emitted a burst of aroma.

Ji Jiayu swallowed hard.

"It's not good yet." Nie Lanxi's voice came from beside him. When Ji Jiayu heard this, he felt a glimmer of hope well up in his heart. "Can I eat it?"

Nie Lanxi's face had a rare, hurt expression, clearly one of heartache.

"Share it with you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard an angry whine.

Ji Jiayu heard the sound and looked over, only to find it was a tabby cat roaring angrily. Although it was a whine, he understood what it meant.

"Just give me the fish tail, but give him the whole one, you're eccentric!" Ji Jiayu immediately stared at Nie Lanxi in shock.

"Does it talk?"

"It doesn't talk, but it's almost the same. It's very mentally strong." Nie Lanxi explained, "Don't be angry."

"It's inconvenient for us to ask. How did you know about it? And Xiao Jiu." Ji Jiayu hesitated for a moment before asking.

"I was born with them, and I grew up in the forest, so I know them."

Nie Lanxi didn't hesitate, as if she had already thought of her answer.

"The energy in your body..." Ji Jiayu said.

"It's innate," Nie Lanxi said. "Okay."

Nie Lanxi's honesty and frankness left Ji Jiayu speechless.

"Since you want me to be your eyes, then I thought we could get to know each other better," Ji Jiayu said.

"Yes," Nie Lanxi said. "Uh..."

Judging by Nie Lanxi's attitude, even if she was willing to get along with Ji Jiayu, in the days to come, I'm afraid Ji Jiayu would have to find a topic.

Alas, it's difficult...

"So that's why you came to the back mountain to train? "Are you afraid of being discovered by them?" Ji Jiayu asked.

"Hmm." Nie Lanxi nodded.

He didn't want the people of the Sacred Sect to find out his secret, and Ji Jiayu remembered this. After a while, the fish was grilled, and Nie Lanxi reached out and handed it to Ji Jiayu. Ji Jiayu was so moved that he took a bite. At the same time, the image of Nie Lanxi grilling the fish earlier appeared in his mind, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

This fish was huge, but it was nothing to Ji Jiayu, whose physique had changed dramatically. Recently, Wang Yinlan had given him breakfast, lunch, and dinner, all very rich and shared, but this grilled fish had a special meaning.

After eating the grilled fish, Ji Jiayu looked at Nie Lanxi and said, "If you're okay, I'll go back first?"

Nie Lanxi gave a light "hmm," without raising his head, and continued eating the grilled fish. A layer of pale golden divine power covered the surface of his fingers, preventing them from being stained with oil from the fish. Grilled.

Ji Jiayu stood up and turned to leave, but he saw the black mound left by the fire not far away, and he couldn't help but feel a little envious.

Nie Lanxi's food was quite delicious!

Since the last time Ji Jiayu grilled fish himself, he knew that grilled fish also required talent, and Nie Lanxi's grilled food was truly delicious.
