Inside the Castle of the Emperor of the Ledal Empire, within my room, I sat on my bed, and my mother, Zheng Yu, took a seat beside me. She had entered my room to discuss my plans related to cultivation.
'Oh... Mother's Yin Qi is thick and pure. I feel that the Yin Qi I have is enough to break through to the next stage. I need to get inside the treasure to cultivate it,' I thought to myself.
"Mother, is there anything else you want to ask?" I inquired if she had any further questions.
"Sigh... No, I don't have anything more to ask. Take some rest; see you later," she said before leaving the room.
As soon as she exited, I closed my eyes and, in the next moment, entered the LOG treasure. Heading straight for the Cultivation Chamber, I sat cross-legged and began my cultivation. After a few hours, Qi burst out from my body, signifying a successful advancement to the next stage.
'Ding.'
Upon opening my eyes, a new notification appeared. Touching my chest, a notification panel materialized in front of me.
[
Cultivation increases Qi Channelling Realm (Stage-2) to (Stage-3)

After checking the notification I touched my chest again and my status panel appeared.

~3rd Person POV~
Meanwhile, as Xu Fang cultivated inside the treasure, Zheng Yu, along with Shen Yin, Lie Ning, and Long Xiu, sat in a luxurious room with serious expressions.
"He already warned me that if we didn't give him permission, he would leave without informing us," Zheng Yu informed the others.
"Why don't we decide who goes with him?" Lie Ning suggested.
"He's adamant about choosing the person himself," Shen Yin reminded Lie Ning.
"But we have to do something," Long Xiu added.
"I have an idea, and I hope it works, but we need to work together. You all know how important he is to our Empire," Zheng Yu said with a serious expression.
"We understand, and we're here to support him in any way we can," Shen Yin assured, receiving nods of agreement from the others.
"As I mentioned earlier, he's quite adamant about not having a teacher, but I gave him permission with three conditions. Firstly, he must focus on his cultivation and surpass his sisters before embarking on any adventure.
Secondly, he agreed to learn Earth and Light elements from me and Lightning elements from Lie Ning, so we've ensured he has access to the best resources for his training.
Lastly, he insisted on choosing a companion for himself. He wants someone close to him. Therefore, we need someone to form a bond with him, someone he'll consider a friend and choose for his adventure," Zheng Yu explained the conditions to the others.
"Everything seems to be in order. I'm ready to instruct him on the Lightning element. But who would be the one he chooses as a friend to accompany him?" Lie Ning inquired, receiving nods of agreement from the others.
"Elder Sister Yu, considering he wishes to delve into alchemy, why not build a connection with him there? I can also contribute by assisting him in alchemy practice," Shen Yin proposed, leveraging her position as the head of the Ledal Alchemist Association.
"That's an excellent idea. Additionally, I've been working with him in the library, helping him with Array Formation," Long Xiu chimed in.
"Brilliant suggestion. If any of us is selected by him for the adventure, everything should proceed smoothly," Zheng Yu remarked, expressing satisfaction.
"Yes, everything seems well-aligned. By the way, his schedule is quite demanding. How does he manage it?" Lie Ning raised a point for discussion.
"He is indeed putting in a tremendous amount of effort. However, there's one thing bothering me, why is he still keeping his dream a secret from us?" Long Xiu expressed with a touch of sadness.
"Sigh, we'll leave it for the future when he's ready, as he promised," Zheng Yu sighed and conveyed to the others.
"There's one more thing—he mentioned that we should inform his sisters that he won't be assisting them in their cultivation anymore," Zheng Yu explained the need to inform Xu Ling and Xu Jing that they would have to manage their cultivation on their own from now on.
"Why doesn't he tell them himself?" Shen Yin questioned the rationale behind Xu Fang not personally delivering this news to his sisters.
"Indeed, he should be the one to tell them. If he's unable to manage his time, he has to be responsible for letting them know," Lie Ning insisted that it was Xu Fang's responsibility to communicate this to his sisters.
"But hearing it from us might upset them," Long Xiu empathized with her daughters, knowing they might feel hurt when they learn about this change.
"True, that's precisely why he didn't want to be the one to break it to them. He mentioned that he has already sorted out his schedule, but the addition of these three elements of learning classes leaves him with no time to assist them," Zheng Yu explained the reason behind Xu Fang's decision not to personally break the news to his sisters.
"So, we're the reason he won't be able to help his sisters?" Lie Ning asked in return, and Zheng Yu nodded, relaying Xu Fang's explanation with a chuckle.
"He mentioned that he didn't want to get beaten up by them, hahaha..."
"Hahahahah..." Laughter echoed in the room as they found humor in the situation.
'I should pay him a visit later, both to inquire about his cultivation and to congratulate him,' Long Xiu thought to herself.
