In the lavish room, on the spacious bed, Xu Fang and Long Xiu peacefully slumber in the mansion nestled within the treasure. They rest contentedly in each other's arms, having engaged in over four hours of Dual Cultivation. After a rest of about six hours, Xu Fang awakens first, feeling a surge of Qi within him that seems ready to burst forth at any moment.
As Xu Fang opens his eyes, he beholds the exquisite, unclothed form of Long Xiu beside him, her head resting on his chest. Deciding not to disturb her slumber, he gently runs his fingers through her hair.
Shortly after, Long Xiu also stirs awake. She tilts her head and, upon seeing Xu Fang's face, greets him with a smile.
"Good morning, husband."
"Morning, wife," Xu Fang responds, returning the smile.
They're aware that within the treasure, there's no distinction between night and day, but they adhere to their external routine. Despite the timeless environment, they maintain a semblance of regularity, as one night in the outside world translates to three full days within the treasure.
"Wife, I need to head to the Yin Chamber to cultivate the Yin Qi within me. It's essential for me to cultivate it as soon as possible," Xu Fang informed Long Xiu. The energy within him surged after their joint cultivation, prompting his need for the cultivation chamber.
"Let go, husband. I also want to cultivate in my Yang Chamber." Long Xiu nodded in agreement.
Xu Fang and Long Xiu rose from the bed, adorned themselves, and ascended to the first floor, where their respective cultivation chambers awaited. Xu Fang entered the Yin Qi Chamber, promptly assuming a cross-legged position to commence cultivating the Qi that now filled his body.
Simultaneously, in the Yang Qi Cultivation Chamber, Long Xiu also seated herself, ready to begin her cultivation.
As Xu Fang delved into his practice, Long Xiu found herself reaping its rewards as well. An hour passed, and she opened her eyes, a contented smile playing on her lips. While not as groundbreaking as their initial session, she had still made significant progress in her cultivation.
Afterward, she rose and headed to the bedroom for a refreshing bath. Post-bath, she strolled into the kitchen. Although she had no plans to cook, she chose a few plates and arranged them on the dining table, conveniently located in the same room.
Long Xiu gestured, and magically, food containers appeared in her hands. Aware of Xu Fang's fondness for fruits while inside the treasure, she had prepared enough food for both of them to last three days.
With breakfast make for Xu Fang and herself, Long Xiu patiently awaited his exit from the cultivation chamber.
In a short while, Xu Fang emerged with a joyful expression, eager to share news of his breakthrough with Long Xiu.
"Wife, what are you doing in the dining hall? Are you hungry?" Xu Fang, guided by the treasure's insights, headed straight to the kitchen, unaware of the already-set table.
"Oh, you've brought food today," Xu Fang remarked, a smile lighting up his face.
"Yes, husband. I thought relying solely on fruits might be a bit challenging, so I brought us some food for our stay here," Long Xiu explained, a smile mirroring his.
"That's fantastic, wife! I'll be back in a few minutes. I need to freshen up first," Xu Fang declared as he headed towards the room for a quick bath.
"Wife, let's have breakfast." In a matter of minutes, Xu Fang returned to the dining hall, where Long Xiu awaited him. He took a seat, smiling at her as he spoke.
Long Xiu nodded and began serving breakfast to both Xu Fang and herself. They engaged in cheerful conversation as they enjoyed their morning meal.
"Husband, did you break through to the next realm?" Long Xiu inquired between bites.
"Yes, wife, I indeed achieved a breakthrough. How about you?" Xu Fang responded, curious about her progress.
"The Yang Qi Cultivation Chamber proved effective, as I'm already at mid-stage 7 and after cultivation of Yang Qi. I'm advancing my cultivation by more than half stage, which helps me brake through the next stage as well." Long Xiu shared with satisfaction.
"That's wonderful. Now, I need to master the Pills Refining technique to win a bet with Shen Yin, so I'll be practicing alchemy," Xu Fang declared after finishing breakfast, getting ready to resume his training.
"Then I'll head to the Arrays Formation Tower," Long Xiu added with a smile.
Exiting the mansion, they went to their respective practices.
After what felt like three days inside the treasure, practicing alchemy, engaging in Dual Cultivation with Long Xiu, hunting in the forest, and exploring techniques on the third floor of the Techniques Tower, Xu Fang returned to his room from the treasure. As he sat on the bed and touched his chest, a notification panel appeared.

'From now on, I won't rush my cultivation. I've already reached the Elemental Attunement Realm (Qi Grandmaster). If I had continued at this pace, I might have remained physically youthful, stuck in the appearance of a boy,' Xu Fang contemplated in his mind.
Initially, his goal was rapid strength development, but he recalled the knowledge he had gained and a warning from the Goddess of Light and Wisdom.
According to the information, once cultivators surpass the Qi Harmonization Realm (Qi Warlord), their aging process slows down. Upon breaking through to the Transcendent Mastery Realm (Qi Ancestor), they cease to age altogether.
It's worth noting that Xu Fang can regulate his cultivation progression during Dual Cultivation with Long Xiu because he doesn't reject the shared energy. Essentially, he refrains from absorbing Yin Qi during their Dual Cultivation, a conscious decision made when he constructed his mansion within the LOG treasure.
Certainly, when Xu Fang constructed the mansion using an array formation for gathering Yin and Yang Qi, his intention was not solely focused on immediate cultivation but also on long-term storage.
In the design of the cultivation chambers, the idea was to not only gather and cultivate Qi but also store it for an extended period. During Dual Cultivation with someone outside the mansion, Yin Qi would be absorbed and cultivated promptly to avoid waste. However, if the Dual Cultivation took place within the mansion and Yin and Yang Qi were not absorbed by Xu Fang, his wives' energies would be stored in the cultivation chambers integrated into the mansion. This strategic approach ensured efficient utilization of the gathered energies for future use.
After glancing at the notifications and checking his status updates, Xu Fang made his way to the bathroom, preparing to start his day. Following his usual routine, he walked towards the dining hall of the castle to share breakfast with his family.
As the family concluded their meal, Xu Fang's mother, Zheng Yu, initiated a conversation, addressing the widespread news about Xu Fang's mastery of the three elements.
"Xu Fang, I've received numerous congratulatory letters from various royal families and sects, not only from our empires but also from others," Zheng Yu shared with evident pride.
"Mother, I anticipated this would happen sooner or later. It's not surprising that the news has spread so rapidly," Xu Fang responded with a confident smile, acknowledging the expected recognition that came with his exceptional achievements.
"Xu Fang, in addition to those letters, you've also received an invitation from Manifest Academy. According to the content, they are willing to welcome you at the academy whenever you decide, even at the age of 14," Zheng Yu conveyed with a smile.
"Elder Sister Yu, I believe this is unprecedented in the history of Manifest Academy," Lie Ning chimed in with a smile.
"That's correct. Manifest Academy has adjusted its rules for your sake," Zheng Yu added. Her pride in her son is evident in her expression.
"It's unexpected, but I'll consider it later." Xu Fang responded to his mother with a thoughtful smile, contemplating the unique opportunity presented by the esteemed academy. They all nodded in agreement.
