In the garden within the LOG treasure, the three of us remained in the same position for a few minutes, with Long Xiu's head on my left shoulder and Shen Yin on my right.
As we hugged, I felt the soft curves of four peaks pressing against the front and sides of my chest. My hands rested on their waists, and a mischievous thought crossed my mind. Slowly, I moved my hands towards their buttocks and gave them a gentle squeeze.
"Mmm~"
"Mmm~"
Both Long Xiu and Shen Yin softly moaned simultaneously.
"Husband, don't attempt naughty things on us from now on. We're on the same team, so winning the battle against us won't be easy," Long Xiu warned, and Shen Yin nodded in agreement.
"Hahaha... we'll see who wins and who loses later," I chuckled in response.
"Alright, you two head towards the mansion; I'll catch up," I told them as we broke our embrace.
"Okay, Husband, see you later." Long Xiu bid me farewell with a smile.
"We'll wait for you there, so come soon," Shen Yin said to me with a slight blush.
"I'll be there as soon as possible," I assured Shen Yin with a smile.
"One more thing, Xiu Er, you can tell her about my dream as well," I instructed Long Xiu to share details about my dream with Shen Yin.
"Sister Xiu, did Xu Fang tell you about his dream?" Shen Yin asked Long Xiu, clearly surprised.
"Yes, Sister Yin, the Husband shared his dream with me on the first day of our relationship," Long Xiu replied with a smile.
"Then let's head to the mansion. I want to hear about his dream first and then learn more," Shen Yin said, taking Long Xiu by the wrist and pulling her toward the mansion.
'Xiu Er, inform me when she knows everything and learns the Yang Qi cultivation technique,' I conveyed to Long Xiu through our mental connection.
"Understood, Husband," Long Xiu responded.
As Long Xiu and Shen Yin walked towards the mansion, I headed in the direction of the Formations Tower. Approaching the towering structure, adorned with mesmerizing arrays, I marveled at the pulsating divine power within the Love of Goddesses' treasure.
Entering the tower, I found myself in a vast chamber with walls adorned with ancient scripts, diagrams, and arrays, revealing the enigmatic knowledge contained within. The air hummed with the resonance of array formations, creating an atmosphere that felt both scholarly and arcane.
The Array Formation Tower was structured into eleven levels, each representing a tier of array mastery. My focus was drawn to the Crystal Chamber on the current level, where holographic images of formations flickered in the air.
Stepping into the crystal chamber, I immersed myself in studying the array of formations available. After careful consideration, I selected one from level 1 for later practice.
***
Array Name: Foundation of Harmony
Array Tier: 1
Objective: Master the foundational principles of array formation. Create a harmonious array that enhances the flow of cultivation energy.
***
After selecting the Tier 1 array formation diagram, I walk towards the stairs that are available to go to the next level of the tower.
When I got there, I saw the same crystal chamber, so I stepped into the crystal chamber and started to read the array of formations available there, and I also chose one from level 2 for practice later.
***
Array Name: Spatial Balance
Array Tier: 2
Objective: Understand the intricacies of spatial arrays. Achieve balance in spatial manipulation for defensive and strategic purposes.
***
After selecting the Tier 2 array formation diagram, I get to the next level of the tower.
When I got there, I stepped into the same-looking crystal chamber, started to read the array of formations available there, and also chose one from level 3 for practice later.
***
Array Name: Illusionary Veil
Array Tier: 3
Objective: Master the art of illusionary arrays. Create veils that deceive the senses and conceal the true nature of surroundings.
***
As I perused the array of techniques and contemplated the challenges ahead, I recognized that mastering these formations would significantly bolster my cultivation prowess.
"The LOG treasure beckons me to explore the boundless possibilities of array formations. I will commence with the 'Foundation of Harmony' from Tier 1 and progress towards the higher tiers," I murmured in a low tone.
After spending some time in the Array Formation Tower, I made my way towards the Craftsmen Tower.
Approaching the Craftsmen Tower, I marveled at its structure—a testament to the artistry of artifact creation. Adorned with symbols and runes, it spoke of the intricate craftsmanship held within.
The Craftsmen Tower, like its counterpart, was organized into eleven levels, each tier representing a mastery of artifact creation.
Entering the tower, I found myself in a vast workshop filled with various materials. My attention was again drawn to the Crystal Chamber, mirroring the one in the Array Formation Tower, where a holographic image displayed artifact creation methods.
Stepping into the Crystal Chamber, I observed different Tier 1 artifact creation methods available for practice.
After watching the Tier 1 artifact creation methods, I proceeded towards the stairs leading to the next level of the tower. Stepping into the new Crystal Chamber, I began to study the various Tier 2 artifact creation methods available for practice.
Having reached the next level of the tower, I stepped into the crystal chamber and delved into the study of different Tier 3 artifact creation methods available for practice.
"Here in the LOG treasure, everything is at my disposal to become a craftsman and array master. I only need to find the best techniques for craftsmen and array masters from the Techniques Tower," I mused in a low tone to myself.
"Long Xiu hasn't updated me on their situation. Should I head to the Techniques Tower to find techniques, or should I proceed to the Alchemy Tower?" I pondered, considering the two different paths before me.
On one hand, I sought techniques related to becoming a craftsman and array master.
On the other hand, I considered the need to create a pill that would not only bring happiness to both of my wives but also serve to purify my Yang Qi. I had previously utilized the 'Pure Yang Pill,' a Tier 2 pill, to enhance the purity of my Yang Qi. Now, I aimed to create the Tier 3 'Ethereal Radiance Pill,' which promised even greater benefits.
After contemplation, I made the decision and began walking towards the Alchemy Tower, where I would embark on the creation of the 'Ethereal Radiance Pill.'

~3rd Person's POV~
Meanwhile, inside Xu Fang's Mansion, the ladies sat on the couch in the family room, engaged in conversation while Xu Fang was occupied with his visit to the Craftsmen and Formation Towers.
"Sister Xiu, now I understand why Xu Fang hesitated to tell us about his dream," Shen Yin remarked to Long Xiu with a saddened expression.
"Sister Yin, you should know that husband cried while sharing his dream with me," Long Xiu disclosed with a somber tone.
"Xu Fang cried?" Shen Yin asked in a mix of sadness and surprise.
"Yes, it was the first time I've seen him cry, and witnessing my husband's tears felt like someone had pierced my heart with a sword." Long Xiu expressed her emotions with a heavy heart.
"Sister Xiu, can you tell me how Xu Fang increased his cultivation? He became a cultivator just two months ago," Shen Yin inquired with curiosity.
"Hahaha, Sister Yin, you might not be aware, but two months ago, Husband staged a fake Elements Qi Awakening ceremony," Long Xiu chuckled as she revealed the truth to Shen Yin.
"What? Fake Elements Qi Awakening Ceremony?" Shen Yin was shocked at Long Xiu's words.
"Right, I was also shocked when Husband told me that, before his fake Elements Qi Awakening ceremony, Husband was already at Qi Channeling Realm (Stage-3)." Long Xiu told her with a smile.
"Really? Qi Channeling Realm (Stage-3)?" Shen Yin was shocked again and Long Xiu nodded her head.
"Then how about Xu Fang at the Elemental Attunement Realm (Stage-3) from the Qi Channeling Realm (Stage-3) in just two months?" Shen Yin asked Long Xiu with curiosity.
"Firstly, you know about time speed inside this treasure, and secondly, Husband gets help from me to get stronger.
Husband gets Qi Channeling Realm (Stage-9) from Qi Channeling Realm (Stage-3) in just a few hours." Long Xiu told her with a mysterious smile.
"Six stages in just a few hours? How?" Shen Yin asked Long Xiu with shock.
"Sister Yin, please let me tell you from the start; otherwise, it will confuse you more. Husbands cultivate the Yin and Yang Path... ... ..." Long Xiu starts to explain Xu Fang's cultivation path.
Eventually, Long Xiu deactivated the effect of the artifact, revealing her true cultivation to Shen Yin.
"Celestial Integration Realm (Stage-1)? Is this because of Dual Cultivation with Xu Fang?" Shen Yin asked Long Xiu in shock.
"Something like that, but after Husband attained the Elemental Attunement Realm (Qi Grandmaster), he stopped absorbing Yin Qi during our Dual Cultivation sessions. Instead, he cultivates normally," Long Xiu explained with a serious expression.
"Why?" Shen Yin inquired with curiosity.
"Husband said if everything had continued in that manner, he wouldn't have matured as a man, and his appearance would have remained that of a boy like he was before," Long Xiu began to elucidate the reasons why Xu Fang ceased absorbing Yin Qi during their sessions.
"Because Husband mentioned that he read about when cultivators break through the Qi Harmonization Realm (Qi Warlord), their aging slows down. And when they reach the Transcendent Mastery Realm (Qi Ancestor), they stop aging altogether. So, he made a conscious decision to age naturally and experience the fullness of life," Long Xiu continued, providing insight into Xu Fang's perspective.
Xu Fang constructed the mansion for himself and his wives with the specific purpose of cultivating Yin and Yang Qi to expedite their growth.
"With the array formations for Yin and Yang Qi gathering, the Cultivation Chambers not only aid in gathering and cultivating Qi but also serve as storage for an extended period," Long Xiu explained.
"Xu Fang is truly adept at planning for the future," Shen Yin remarked with an admiring smile.
