"This bed is truly the finest."
Following an exhausting day, Chen Xuan gazed at the expansive round bed, where crimson drapes cascaded downwards like a flowing waterfall. There was sufficient space for him and the girls to move about and stand together with complete ease. He had to admit, his disciple certainly understood how to bring him comfort.
"Indeed, we could easily host even more sisters here." Luan Ying remarked, casting a bright, cheerful smile toward him.
"Are you attempting to wear me out?" Even with the current group, things were barely manageable; any more would be absolutely impossible. He reflected that the world was fair in this regard; regardless of one's strength, there were physical limitations to consider. Had he not successfully cultivated the Holy Sun Body, his stamina would have long since depleted. It was no exaggeration, he thought, that there are only exhausted oxen, never worn-out fields.
"By the way, Luan Ying and I have decided to enter seclusion for a while, hoping to achieve another breakthrough." Ning Xin stated, lifting her head slightly to catch his gaze.
"Do you sense your realm loosening once again?" Chen Xuan asked, truly surprised, as it had not been long since her last advancement.
"Not exactly, but I wish to see if I can re-enter that particular state." Cultivating within the Dao Realm was no simple feat, and since her innate talent was far from exceptional, the Dao Realm would remain an impossible dream without Chen Xuan’s guidance. Only in that unique state could her advancement speed reach such astonishing levels. Furthermore, with the dense Spiritual Qi found in the Primordial Realm, she was eager to test her limits again. Luan Ying had also been suppressing her own progress to wait for her, otherwise, she would have surged ahead long ago. If this attempt failed, she would then dedicate herself fully to independent cultivation without holding back for Ning Xin's sake.
"That sounds like a plan; it is worth a try." Chen Xuan embraced her and whispered softly. Ever since Xiaoqi attained Unity, he felt an unusual quality about their interactions—as if they had tapped into a mysterious state, yet it remained distinct from before.
"In that case, we should all go into seclusion." Gu Pengyou also felt a sudden urge to withdraw, as the Spiritual Qi here was incredibly concentrated. The remaining girls nodded their agreement in turn.
This development filled Chen Xuan with anxiety. "Wait, don't all of you enter seclusion! What about me?" Without them around, his skill point accumulation would grind to a halt.
"I certainly won't, husband!" Lan Meng’Er exclaimed, quickly raising her hand. "Besides, I am perfectly content this way; I shall remain here to look after you and our son."
"How very considerate of you, sister."
"It is no burden at all; it is simply my duty."
"Sister Xin’Er is actually implying that the nights will be quite difficult to endure."
"Hahaha..."
....
The next morning! Following breakfast, Chen Xuan personally escorted the girls to their chambers to begin their seclusion. He chose not to leave his Spiritual Power behind, knowing that as the master of the Primordial Realm, any anomaly would immediately alert him.
"There is no need to rush; take your time. If that state proves elusive, there is no harm done." Chen Xuan cautioned as he studied Ning Xin and Luan Ying. That state was notoriously difficult to trigger, and he suspected it required a specific convergence of the Nine Elements Dao Skill and the Myriad Manifestation Skill—a phenomenon likely woven into their nature by the system.
"Understood; my sister and I will be careful, so do not worry, husband." Luan Ying shot him a look, reassuring him with a wink.
"Rest assured?" He felt no such comfort. Luan Ying was precisely the one he worried about most. "Especially you, refrain from brewing any troublesome ideas. If a notion strikes you, transmit the thought to me first."
"Humph! Come along, Sister, let us ignore him." Luan Ying grumbled, pulling Ning Xin toward the room. Before disappearing inside, she couldn't resist making a humorous face at him. He could only shake his head in defeat. And yet, they still expected him to be at ease!
... The girls had remained in seclusion for dozens of days. Xiaoqi continued his daily routine, descending to the bottom of the lake to cultivate alongside the rabbit. Within the study, Chen Xuan reviewed the glowing golden panel projected before his eyes.
... [Rules: Rule of Space (40%)] [Spirit Body: Heavenly Dao Body] [Realm: Martial Cultivator: Dao Realm (Fifth Level), Spirit Cultivator: Dao Stage (Fourth Level)] [Cultivation Technique: Nine Elements Dao Skill (Dao Grade) (Seventeen Layers (6.35 billion/7.2 billion)), Myriad Manifestation Skill (Twentieth Layer (5.04 billion/8.32 billion))] [Skill Points: 7.809 billion] ...
Only one day remained! His recent efforts had been dedicated to cultivating the Nine Elements Dao Skill to replenish his blood essence, causing the progress of the Myriad Manifestation Skill to stagnate. Fortunately, after consuming various potent pills and focusing on his technique, his blood essence had almost fully recovered.
"Tomorrow, I shall finally be prepared for an upgrade." A surge of excitement stirred within him. Unity!
... During dinner inside the grand hall, only Xiaoqi, Chen Xuan, and Lan Meng’Er were present. "Husband, the meal might not reach the standard of Sister Xin’Er’s cooking, but please, do not be overly picky." As she spoke, she served a portion of tofu onto his plate. This Crab Roe Tofu was her signature dish, meticulously prepared from Immortal Sea Crab and the finest beans. The secret lay entirely in the timing, a skill she had learned at great personal cost.
"You have done a magnificent job." Chen Xuan smiled, popping the tofu into his mouth. It dissolved instantly, leaving behind a rich, savory essence. "It is truly delicious; your effort is evident."
"It really is tasty; mother's cooking is my absolute favorite!" Xiaoqi cheered. Seeing the joy of both his son and husband, Lan Meng’Er beamed. They were the most essential figures in her life, and long as they were happy, she was content to do anything.
Night arrived. The bed felt incredibly spacious that evening. Following a moment of intimacy, Chen Xuan embraced Lan Meng’Er. "Tomorrow, I too shall enter seclusion, and it may require quite some time. Should the others emerge, do inform them. Tell them not to worry."
"Husband, you are entering seclusion as well?" Lan Meng’Er raised her head, a hint of disappointment in her eyes. She cherished these private moments with him; it was not a matter of selfishness, but rather the sensation that, in these brief instances, Chen Xuan belonged entirely to her.
