Jiang Che and Nangong Luo arrived beside the Bodhi Holy Tree, their eyes fixed on the Bodhi Fruits hanging from the treetop.

These fruits, resembling golden crystal balls, emitted a fragrance so alluring it was hard to resist.

"Big brother, let me go first!"

Nangong Luo turned to Jiang Che and said.

Jiang Che nodded.

Then, Nangong Luo was the first to pick one, using her golden Spiritual Power to wrap it up and swallow it.

At the moment of swallowing, a shimmering golden light emanated from Nangong Luo's body. She quickly closed her eyes, motionless, as if experiencing the effects of the Bodhi Fruit.

Jiang Che observed Nangong Luo, realizing that the Bodhi Fruit did not bring about much of a physical change.

However, after thinking about it, he found it reasonable.

The Bodhi Fruit's effects mainly focused on the unseen aspects, such as enhancing a being's wisdom, temporarily increasing the consumer's comprehension, soul cleansing, etc.

And at this moment, Little Zi grew anxious.

"Ji gu, ji gu!"

"Master, Master, Little Zi wants some too!"

Seeing Nangong Luo having her fill, Little Zi wouldn't stop chirping, rubbing Jiang Che's head eagerly with its four little legs.

"Don't worry, you won't be left out!"

Jiang Che smiled bitterly to himself; this little one really was gluttonous.

Immediately, Jiang Che manipulated his own Spiritual Power, transforming it into two purple-gold serpents that flew to the treetop, retrieving two Bodhi Fruits.

One of them hovered above Jiang Che's head and was brought in front of Little Zi.

"This is yours, little glutton!"

Seeing the Bodhi Fruit so close, Little Zi was overjoyed and jumped happily.

As if afraid it would vanish, it quickly hugged the fruit to its chest, eyes squinting in delight.

"Ji gu!"

Little Zi quietly stared at the Bodhi Fruit in its arms, then extended its tongue to lick it. Instantly, its eyes brightened, and with a satisfied chirp, it took a big bite.

As Little Zi gnawed on the Bodhi Fruit, Jiang Che also swallowed another fruit.

As it entered, Jiang Che felt a chill in his throat; the Bodhi Fruit seemed to transform into a stream of water emerging from a cold spring, flowing from his mouth to his stomach, chilling him to his core.

The next moment, this cold stream in his stomach split into two.

Most of the stream directly stimulated Jiang Che's purple-gold Spiritual Power, which, as the Demon Pill within him whirled, surged upwards from his abdomen into Jiang Che's mind.

"What sort of fruit is this..."

In an instant, Jiang Che felt his head cool, his body immobilized, unable to move, even his thoughts seemed continually washed over by a cold intent.

At this moment, under the influence of the cold, he felt ethereal, like a deity, his comprehension rapidly soaring, consciousness elevating, overlooking his entire being.

Recalling his Thunder Power, instantly, past moments of using Thunder Power in battles flashed through his mind, and with quick introspection, errors were corrected mentally.

In the short span, many marvelous techniques of Thunder Power were deduced by Jiang Che, imprinting themselves in his mind.

While most of the cold surged into his mind, the remaining stream began affecting his body.

Guided by his Spiritual Power, these cold streams spread throughout, transforming into fine threads, coursing across his entire physique, refining every part, inducing subtle transformation.

Thus, the area where two tigers and a beast stood seemed to encounter a time halt, motionless, accepting the Bodhi Fruit's baptism.

Time ticked by slowly.

After five minutes, Jiang Che's eyes finally regained clarity, his heart filled with terror. He attempted to walk a few steps, finding his body normal, finally exhaling in relief.

"Damn, this Bodhi Fruit is frightening, I nearly thought I would freeze to death!"

Recalling the experience, Jiang Che felt a twinge of fear, couldn't help but curse quietly.

Because, just moments ago under the cold stream's effect, he found he couldn't control his own body.

It was too terrifying.

Like a vegetative person, standing there.

Though his thoughts weren't dead, the connection with his body had been severed.

Fortunately, after the cold in his mind was exhausted, Jiang Che regained control over his body.

"That moment just now, should have been a manifestation of a significant increase in comprehension, right?"

Coming back to his senses, Jiang Che recalled the previous scene of himself like a celestial, deducing Thunder Power in his mind, already guessing.

Afterward, Jiang Che began to focus on his own changes.

First, he noticed his mind was clearer than ever, his memory excellent; he could even recall childhood events from his past life, quicksilver thoughts, matters that once took ages to unravel now had optimal solutions in seconds.

Secondly, the usage of his Thunder Power had become more versatile, understanding it was due to his prior surge in comprehension allowing these deductions.

Lastly...though uncertain, Jiang Che felt his soul should have been refined, becoming significantly stronger.

As for why, Jiang Che could now emit an unknown, invisible force from his brow, scanning the surrounding hundreds of meters clearly.

Everything in this area, like a high-definition image, appeared in Jiang Che's mind.

Caterpillars hiding behind peach leaves, mosquitoes and flies buzzing behind, earthworms burrowing underground...all sorts of things outside of vision couldn't escape Jiang Che's inspection.

"Though consuming this Bodhi Fruit was somewhat alarming, I must admit, this newfound probing ability is pretty amazing!"

The previous panic had long vanished, now Jiang Che was beaming, inwardly marveling.

With this ability henceforth, even if adversaries tried to ambush him, success would be improbable.

At this time, Nangong Luo also recovered, opening her eyes, feeling the changes in herself, heart filled with joy.

Especially since she just recently broke through her cultivation to the third tier, yet with the Bodhi Fruit's benefit, there were signs of further advancement.

Noticing Nangong Luo waking up, Jiang Che turned his gaze asking his doubt.

"Third sister, how is the Bodhi Fruit? Do you feel as if you've awoken a special power, capable of sensing the surrounding environment?"

"A special power... Big brother, have you awakened your Divine Sense?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Luo knew her big brother had consumed the Bodhi Fruit. As for the special power he spoke of, she understood, thus she began to explain slowly.

"Divine Sense?"

"Indeed, it's a capability possessed by fifth-tier experts, generally, fourth and third-tier beasts cannot awaken it, but the Bodhi Fruit is an exception, allowing beings to awaken Divine Sense early."

Nangong Luo nodded in response.

Whether one can awaken Divine Sense, the most crucial factor is the strength of the being's soul.

And the Bodhi Fruit possesses the ability to cleanse the soul, making it purer and more resilient.
