Chapter 86: Facing Family
Yue Lan giggled softly as she told him, "Don't worry, the time flows differtly inside here than the outside world, since this is your first time here, I changed the time so after you leave this place only minutes or so would have passed outside."
She paused to let him digest it as she looked at him with a mischievous smile on her face, "You don't need to worry so much about time, you have plty of that left. So show me what you wanted to show before."
Sh Yuan stood in his tracks as he listed to her, he felt his lips twitching as he made a fool out of himself in front of Yue Lan again, he took a deep breath as he contemplated the time-dilation cultivation chambers for a bit.
He thought of various ways to use it, he shook his head as he thought, 'I will think about it later, let's ask her what this is, I think it might be that but…hmm need to be sure.'
He looked a the bed and picked up the tree branch with leaves in it again, he grabbed the base of the branch with both hands and swiped one of his hands on the stick.
All the leaves dropped on the g as if it was only a bare stick now, "So, I wanted to show you what I comprehded in my last cultivation session, it seems like my sword mastery was polished as well somehow."
He infused his intt in the stick, making it as sharp as a sword as he swung it on the lower side of the bed.
Slashing it cleanly in two, the result was beyond ev his own expectations as he didn't expect to make such a clean cut.
"Congratulations, Sh Yuan, you have comprehded the first level of Sword Intt. That's really impressive considering your cultivation base as most of the people start learning about intts much later in their cultivation journey." Yue Lan praised him sincerely as she didn't expect him to learn it so soon and ev reach the first level of Intt in it.
"But it's now due to your sword mastery magically increasing but your Dao Heart strgthing due to the extreme pain you underwt before, it metamorphosed your Sword Masters into Intt." she only told him about how he managed to master the first level Sword Intt to dispel his confusion.
Sh Yuan nodded his head in realization, "Dao Heart is so mystical, ev aiding one to comprehd Intts." He muttered to himself.
"Dao Heart is one of the most esstial things a cultivator needs to be successful and transcd one tribulation after another. Otherwise, it's too easy to stay from their path if they don't have an indomitable Dao Heart." She lectured him about the Dao Heart again as she truly wanted him to realize the importance the Dao Heart has for a cultivator.
Sh Yuan also listed patitly to her, agreeing with her but not understanding fully how it can illuminate the path for a cultivator.
Before he could ask more about it Yue Lan spoke first, "Alright, you have be here for long ough, off you go."
She waved her tiny paws and st him outside of the chamber.
Everything wt dark for Sh Yuan as wh he oped his eyes, he was back in his bedroom.
The room was cleaned without a speck of dust remaining. Sh Yuxin, Huo Rong, and Bing Rong were sitting at the table and talking with each other wh they suddly turned their heads and looked toward Sh Yuan.
Sh Yuxin was nicely dressed in purple robes, looking regal and elegant, Huo Rong was still wearing her signature red robes while Bing Rong was wearing icy blue robes.
Sh Yuan smiled lightly looking at his family, at this momt he truly thought that all the suffering of the past was worth it after reuniting with his family.
Before Huo Rong and Bing Rong could ev ask what had happed last night, Sh Yuxin's eyes winded in shock as she came in front of Sh Yuan before any of the others could ev react.
"H-how d-did you managed to break through from the 5th level of Qi Gathering Realm to the 3rd Level of Foundation Establishmt Realm in only minutes??? How is this possible?" Her eyes were filled with visible confusion as she couldn't comprehd how he managed to cultivate so quickly.
Ev the top most giuses she knew needed to take a few months before they could cultivate this fast, and not to mtion all of them had trash foundations not worth mtioning.
Now what she feared the most was his foundation becoming unstable.
Sh Yuan smiled softly looking at her anxious expression, he hugged her to calm her down. Their bodies pressed against each other.
Sh Yuxin also took a deep breath of his sct as she tried to calm down.
Sh Yuan spoke while patting her back, "You don't have to worry, Mom. I hav't ruined my foundation, in fact, I dare say you can not find another individual with a stronger foundation than me throughout the world."
In the d, his voice held a hint of arrogance, but it was warranted as he knew his foundation was truly something else. Not ev the greatest giuses of the ages can come close to his Dao Foundation.
Sh Yuxin looked at her son suspiciously, having a hard time believing what he said since he had only be missing for a few minutes.
Just th her mind flashed as she blurted out, "Wait, don't tell me you were in a time dilation chamber? Yes, that must be it. It doesn't make sse otherwise."
Sh Yuxin spoke to herself as she thought that she had come to a possible outcome.
Sh Yuan raised his eyebrow in surprise, not expecting his mom to hit the mark at once, nevertheless, he spoke in agreemt, "Yes, Mom, you are correct. It was indeed a time dilation chamber. But as for how long I cultivated for? Ev I don't know since I didn't take notice of time." He shook his head as he finished speaking.
Meanwhile, Huo Rong and Bing Rong looked at him with shock-filled gazes, not expecting him to cultivate so fast. But they also nodded in understanding after hearing about the time dilation chamber.
Ev though they have never expericed it themselves, they have heard legds about such cultivation adobes.
Yue Lan th manifested into reality in her cute cat form.
"Nyah~" she purred cutely as she looked at the gathered family.
"Oh yeah, Yue Lan, you must know for how long I was there." Sh Yuan looked at her and asked, by this time he was used to having her a and coming and going at her own whims.
"Nyah~ you were inside the Dual Cultivation Chamber for quite a few weeks." She didn't talk about how he spt the majority of the time testing due to his injuries.
It would needlessly worry Sh Yuxin and the others, Sh Yuan also gave her a grateful nod to show his appreciation.
He didn't want his family to know about his deeds and what title the system gave him.
