Ji Yen took two of the fruits and Ji Wen took the last one.
After all that, they went on their own way.
Ji yen and Ji Wen both went back to their spiritual cave. And the demon monkey also left and went back to his territory.
Before they all left the place, they marked the territory with their Qi.
When they arrived at the spiritual cave, both Ji Yen and Ji Wen resumed their daily cultivation routine.
On the 7th day, Ji emerged fromthe spiritual cave.
As he emerged from his cave, Ji Yen looked around and stretched his body.
He felt his body was like a cramped. His body was larger than before.

Not only his bodycwas larger, his Realm was also higher than before.
Before consuming the two five petal fruits, his realm was at Grade 1 layer 1. But now, his realm was at Grade 1 layer 2(mid).
It won't be long before he can reach the top of the 2nd layer.
"What a wonderful effect." He murmured to himself.
Then he flapped his wings and flew up in the air. And he left the cave.
Inside the spiritual cave, a bird of similar kind but smaller, was seen cultivating with its close.
That is Ji Wen.
After consuming the spiritual fruit, Ji Wen also reached the Grade 1 demon beast realm. His body also become larger.
Ji Yen checked the data when Ji Wen reached the first Grade realm. The data was same as before except for the realm and abilities. Ji Wen abilities were a little bit similar to his.
On the other side, Ji Yen flew across his territory.
As he was flying in the air, he felt some lingering aura just at the edge of his territory.
Ji Yen flew towards it.
When he landed, he felt the aura was unusual. He had never felt this type of aura from any animals in the forest. And he doesn't know any demon beast who has that type of aura.
Ji Yen stood there, thinking for a moment.
As Ji Yen stood there thinking, he suddenly realized that he knew that type smell from the earth. Except that type smell comes from humans.
"Human..!" This thought struck Ji Yen.
He realized that maybe some human hunters or human cultivators came there.
"But why would they came in this deeper parts of the outskirts of the forest...?" Ji Yen questioned himself. "And I they can reach this part of the forest, that means they may be human cultivators. Not some hunters hunting wild animals. Or maybe they are hunters accompanied by cultivators. But they are not that strong.."
"Mostly, at the Mortal Foundation Realm First layer or second. And a few at mid Mortal Foundation Realm."
From the aura, Ji Yen could determine that they are humans. About 5 or 6 of them. But he could not determine their strengths. Which is not good for him.
"Why would they come here...?why??" Ji Yen wrecked his brain to figure out the reasons for human appearing near his territory. If he could find out the reason, he can not sleep peacefully at all.
He knows the characters of humans, best. And how horrible they can be. Sometimes, they are more disgusting than animals and devils. Because he himself was a human and he saw how his companions behave during those drills and all those missions.
Ji Yen was determined to find out the reason.
He followed the trails of aura, the humans left behind.
The trails led him towards the outside of the forest. Seeing that, Ji Yen stopped following the trails and went back to his territory.
He knows those humans will surely come back. And he must be prepared for whatever coming, good or bad. But he is sure that if humans ever sees him, they will definitely attack him. Not for any particular reason, just to get his energy.
After returning to his cave, Ji Yen also told his findings to Ji Wen.
Now both of them are in dilemma.
After thinking for a while, Ji Yen asked Ji Wen to go to the monkey's place and ask him about it.
Ji Wen agreed and left the cave.
As he was sitting there, Ji Yen wrecked his brain to think of something.
After a while, he asked the system. "System, is there any technique or method that can help me adjust my size to however I want? Or anything like that."
The system did not answer for a while.
After a minute or so, it replied.
[There is a similar technique. Even though host can not adjust the size to however you want. You can still turn into a normal wild sparrow size and revert back your original form when necessary.
If host wants it, you can use 30 energy points to retrieve that skill.]
Ji Yen face lit up with happiness. He just casually asked about it. He did not expect the system have that kind of skill.
Seeing Ji Yen's thought, a message pooped up.
[Deriving methods is one my function. Host should note that. I just derived it.]
Puzzled, Ji Yen asked. "If you can do that, why not just derived what is asked for."
[There are things that are impossible and possible to derive.]
"OK.ok. Just give me the technique already." Knowing that he can win an argument with the system, Ji Yen just asked for the technique.
[System energy storage: 57 points.]
[-30 energy points.
Retrieving the technique in 3...2...1..]
When the count down ended, Ji Yen felt the cells and muscles of his whole body changing.
And some memories on how to operate the skill came to his mind.
As he was checking the memories, the system sent him a message.
[Please note that host can not use any skills or abilities when host is in small size. Only when host is in the original form, can you use your skills.]
Ji Yen felt that it was a little bit disappointing but nonetheless he did care much of it.
Then he continued checking the memories on how to use the technique.
