"I must reach the master - 5 star stage before I break my cultivation stance." He thought to himself before circulating his energy.

Days turned into weeks as Aiden continued his cultivation in the closed realm. Ivy had been his only company, and she had been taking care of him while he remained in his closed cultivation state.
As the days passed, Aiden had reached the master-5 star stage, and he knew that he was one step closer to his ultimate goal.
He slowly opened his eyes and saw Ivy lying near him.
She was sound asleep after looking so tired, Aiden gently stroked her hair as he saw her struggling with her messy hair.
"Mhmm..." She felt the gentle hand on her head and woke up in an instant.
