The river was not long. The water was so clear that one could see the bottom of it. Many branches and petals were floating on it, giving one a pleasant smell.
Qin Nan withdrew his aura and approached the river silently. He stared at the water-type beasts swimming in the river.
Whoosh!
Qin Nan suddenly made his move. He was like an emperor of beasts. The branch in his hand was fired into the river at lightning speed.
Splash!
Countless beasts were startled. They immediately fled for their lives, producing huge splashes in the water.
Blood splashed in the water. Qin Nan reached his hand out and dragged out three huge fish with jade-like scales and pearl-like eyes.
"This should be enough for us."
Qin Nan nodded. He gathered some branches and stacked them together.
"I should remove these scales."
Qin Nan pondered for a moment. He used the branches as a knife to remove the scales.
In the end, he realized that the fish did not have a pleasant smell. He gathered some petals and smashed them into pieces before sprinkling them on the fish.
"The next step should be seasoning... forget it, let's grill them first."
Qin Nan was already starving. He could not care less. He ignited a flame and set up a wooden rack, placing the three fish on it.
The flame burned slowly. The flesh of the fish was cooked layer by layer. A faint aroma floated in the air.
Qin Nan grilled the fish for a while and glanced in the other direction.
Empress Feiyue was still as cold as ever. She was walking on the grass step by step.
Every time she took a step, a purplish-gold pattern would appear.
However, the runes were dim.
Clearly, after she was injured this time, the energy in her body was no longer enough to support her activating the formation.
Qin Nan withdrew his gaze and glanced at the three huge fishes.
The two remained silent, as if they had completely ignored each other.
Only the sound of the flames burning could be heard in the spacious valley.
As time passed, the fragrance grew stronger and stronger, spreading in all directions. Even many Demonic Beasts in the valley quietly poked their heads out to take a look.
Above the flames, there were three large fish. The flesh of the fish was oozing with juices and sizzling sounds. The previously snow-white color had also turned into an alluring golden color.
Some of the demonic beasts couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
If it weren't for the dangerous aura emanating from this young man, they would have already charged over.
"It seems that I am quite talented in this area."
Qin Nan was also salivating. He couldn't wait to take a big fish.
He was about to take a bite when a sudden thought crossed his mind. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Copper mirror, you should eat some too. After all, we're still mortals, and we're still carrying heavy burdens …"
He had originally wanted to ignore the copper mirror, but after thinking about it carefully, there was no need for that.
"Childish."
Empress Feiyue did not even turn around.
Ever since she started cultivating, she had never touched any food.
Even when the Peerless Rulers in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm prepared countless immortal dishes for her, she had never taken a second look at them, let alone a simple grilled fish.
In her eyes, it was only a waste of time to do such things.
Of course, she was also a mortal now. Her stomach was filled with hunger. However, this was unable to affect her willpower in the slightest.
"You …"
Qin Nan was choked once again. He ignored her and took a bite of the fish.
The fish was tender but not greasy. It melted in his mouth and tasted wonderful. Qin Nan was indescribably satisfied. He could not help but take one bite after another.
The two fish were soon eliminated by Qin Nan, allowing him to recover his strength as he no longer felt hungry.
"I never thought that this kind of ordinary food could be so delicious."
Qin Nan sighed in his heart. Suddenly, a wave of tiredness swept over him. He lay down on the grass and fell into a deep sleep.
Empress Feiyue's blue robe drifted in the wind. She was still walking on the grass.
Not long after, the vast grassland was completely covered in purple-gold patterns. The true appearance of an ancient formation had also completely revealed itself.
Empress Feiyue frowned slightly.
She was injured, thus she did not have enough strength to fully activate the formation.
She was still a mortal, thus she was unable to absorb Qi or refine herbs. She could only rely on herself to recover.
It would take her at least a month to fully recover.
"A month is too long, I have to finish it in five days …"
Empress Feiyue glanced at the valley.
She could only wait and see if she could use the resources she had.
Suddenly, from the corner of her eye, she saw the big fish that was still roasting over the fire.
An Immortal Art surfaced in her mind.
The art was invented by an Earth Immortal. It allowed her to absorb the immortal intent and force of various immortal beasts by eating them.
Even though the fish was only a third-layer Body Tempering Realm beast, it still possessed some Qi. She should be able to absorb the Qi with the art.
As long as she had spiritual energy, her injuries could be healed in advance.
Empress Feiyue remained still. A while later, she glanced at Qin Nan who was still in deep sleep and walked over expressionlessly.
Even though the fish was slightly charred, the aroma it was emitting was even stronger.
She frowned slightly. She executed the Immortal Art and took a small bite.
Her blue eyes flickered as soon as the fish entered her mouth.
The taste …
It was not bad at all.
"To absorb the Qi."
She murmured and continued to eat the fish under the light of the fire.
Gulp.
Many beasts could not help but swallow their saliva again.
If the Peerless Rulers in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm knew what was going on, they would be utterly dumbfounded even with their strong Dao Hearts.
Qin Nan slowly opened his eyes in a daze as he sensed something.
When he saw a beautiful woman who looked like an ice sculpture eating fish, he was instantly jolted awake.
"Didn't you say it's childish? Why are you eating it now? "
Qin Nan was a little annoyed, yet amused at the same time.
He finally realized that the copper mirror was stubborn. Even if she had the same thought, she would not say it out loud.
Empress Feiyue's figure stiffened.
He was in a deep sleep. Why did he wake up all of a sudden?
"You're overthinking it." She collected her thoughts and said expressionlessly, "This art can recover your Qi by eating beasts, allowing you to recover faster. I'll teach it to you."
Saying this, she flicked her finger and fired a ray of light into Qin Nan's mind.
"Such a unique art."
Qin Nan's attention was immediately attracted by it. His eyes flickered with astonishment.
However, Qin Nan did not notice Empress Feiyue letting out a relieved sigh.
"There's more."
