Ti passed so quickly inside the Pavilion that two years had already elapsed since they re-entered seclusion, which equated to a little over six months in the outside world.
At first, Zhang Fei wanted to wait for all his virgin wives to break through to the Seven Divine Realms before taking their virginities. However, he changed his mind because their cultivation was progressing too slowly under normal circumstances, and he couldn’t use the system’s harem-sharing feature with them, as their nas weren’t registered in it.
Zhang Fei ultimately decided to take all his virgin wives, such as Guo Lan, Shi Wu, Shi Xi, Wen Xuan, Wen Yuan, Ming Yanyu, Wang Zhuxian, Angela, Jiang Yinghua, ng Tianshi, Daniella, Lin Dong’er, Mu Lingshu, Balena, Huangfu Xiaoying, Huangfu Xiaoi, Ling Xiannu, Tasha, Ning Zhuan’er, and Chang Wenjie. He registered their nas into the system, which allowed him to use the harem-sharing feature with them.
Although he still had not found a solution to cure Mu Lingshu’s body abnormality, Zhang Fei still decided to take her into his harem to accelerate her cultivation. Since she couldn’t feel sexual pleasure, their first night wasn’t that exciting. However, she was relieved because her husband was so understanding, and he treated her so gently during their sex session.
Considering that all of his wives who ca from the middle and upper realms had already reached the Seven Divine Realms, Zhang Fei was fully focused on helping all of his wives from the Earth and the Sky Jade Realm, especially since they had not yet reached that stage.
Since he had decided to enter a long period of seclusion, Zhang Fei didn’t care much about his cultivation, and he sacrificed a lot of the Qi he got from all his wives, who had already reached the Seven Divine Realms long ago, for those who hadn’t reached that stage through the harem-sharing feature.
When his Qi was insufficient, Zhang Fei used the Qi from his prisoners inside the Yin-Yang Space. The amount of Qi in the Yin-Yang Space was obviously much greater than the amount from his wives, especially since most of his prisoners were cultivators in the Divine Ascension Realm.
Additionally, Zhang Fei kept consuming pills and several other items, especially those that had the effect of increasing his Yang Qi.
Furthermore, all of them had mastered the Nine Heavens Illusory Avatar Technique, and most of them had successfully created five or more avatars. Additionally, each of them had one avatar created using the Yin-Yang Avatar Technique, which significantly accelerated their cultivation speed.
Angela, Shi Xi, and Shi Wu were the first to reach the Seven Divine Realms, especially since their previous cultivation had shot up to the Quasi Divine Realms after they transford into the Rainbow-Shelled Tortoise, the White Tiger, and the Azure Dragon.
After the three won reached the Seven Divine Realms, Shen Huang, Zhang Lingxue, Hu Lili, Hu Yue, and Lian Xing followed suit and also achieved this level. Once they reached that stage, Zhang Fei lessened his focus on them and focused more on helping his other wives, such as Liu Qingyu and the others.
In the end, all of Zhang Fei’s wives from the Earth and the Sky Jade Realms managed to reach the Seven Divine Realms, except for Xu Ling’er and Wu Lianzhi, who were still sixteen and seventeen years old, which was because the flow of ti in the training space was four tis faster than the outside world and affected their lifespan.
Although Xu Ling’er and Wu Lianzhi were not yet able to dual cultivate with Zhang Fei directly, their cultivation also increased significantly because they continued to ingest his Yang Qi through the bottle, and they managed to reach the Quasi-Divine Realm in the past two years.
Unlike his official harem mbers, Zhang Fei’s five clones rarely used the harem-sharing feature with their respective wives. Despite this, their cultivation also increased significantly, especially since all the items he ingested also affected his clones. They were not far from breaking through to the Seven Divine Realms, except for those who were not cultivators, like the Black Amaris, the White Amaris, and Nadea.
Among the wives of all his clones, Xie Jingxuan and Ba Shuxiang progressed the slowest because they dual cultivated with Zhang Xiaolong [3] in the Sovereign Heaven Realm, where the ti flow was much slower than the training space, especially since the ti flow in the space followed that of the Paradise Realm.
Although he focused on his cultivation, Zhang Fei sent Zhang Chen, Zhang Hanzi, Qing Tan, and Zhu Yan out of the training space several tis. Huang Xiaoyi helped the four of them open their shop and restaurant in the Immortal Lotus Sanctuary. As in the other realms, sales at their shop and restaurant have been good since their opening, with both being flooded with custors daily.
The biggest-selling items in his shop were his pills, especially his basic pills, healing pills, Qi restoration pills, and various other pills. Unlike his shop in the Three Mortal Realms, he didn’t sell earth goods in his new shop, especially since their production would not et the needs of his new buyers with the ti flow difference being too large.
At Zhang Fei’s restaurant, Zhang Chen and the three won served earth dishes similar to those in his other restaurant in the Three Mortal Realms, with Zhu Yan continuing to act as the head cook. Like in other realms, earth dishes were popular with the diners, who not only ca from the Immortal Lotus Sanctuary but also those who ca from other sects and clans.

Since the Qi and ti flow within the training space would change again if his real body descended to the Three Mortal Realms, Zhang Fei decided to use his fifth clone to accompany Zhang Yue to the Phoenix Realm.
Zhang Fei [5] took Zhang Yue, Feng Xueying, and Feng Jinqiu to that realm.
"Even though your progress is much slower than your husband’s, it is still much faster than ordinary cultivators," Feng Jinqiu spoke to Zhang Yue as they followed Feng Xueying to the Frozen Lotus Basin.
Zhang Yue nodded to her. "Fortunately, Fei’er has so many won by his side, and his cultivation is quite high now, so he can help us all reach this stage."
"That’s true." Feng Jinqiu then looked at Zhang Fei. "Why hasn’t your cultivation broken through yet? Even if you help them, your cultivation should still improve, right?"
Zhang Fei [5] shook his head in response. "Senior Jinqiu, you already know that I have eight cultivation cores, which ans the amount of Qi required for to break through to the next minor stage is eight tis greater than what other cultivators need; therefore, my cultivation has been progressing more slowly than it did before I broke through to the Seven Divine Realms. Besides, I’m too lazy to break through one stage at a ti, so I’m holding back my cultivation, and I’ll break through several stages directly, like my previous breakthroughs. Only two years have passed from the total long period of seclusion that I planned, so I still have a lot of ti to improve my cultivation. If necessary, I will extend my seclusion period, and we will exit after I reach the Five Celestial Realms."
"I see." Feng Jinqiu nodded in understanding. "With your number of won and all the advantages you have, it is not impossible for you to reach the Five Celestial Realms within the next eighteen years, and you might already achieve it before the ti limit you set is up. What are your plans after you break through to that stage?"
Zhang Fei [5] thought for a mont before answering her. "I plan to explore our current domain first, especially since Luo Yunxiao told there are many interesting places there. After that, I will go with my father-in-law to the Forgotten Realm to look for the mysterious rchant and attend the auction that is held once every hundred years."
"An auction that is held once every hundred years?" Both Feng Xueying and Feng Jinqiu were surprised to hear that.
Zhang Fei [5] nodded at them. "If you two want to look around there, you guys can join us then. Since your cultivation has already reached the 1-Sun Celestial Lord Realm, I think there’s no problem if you want to join us, Senior Xueying. However, Senior Jinqiu’s cultivation is still at the Divine Fusion Realm now, and she will probably be quite pressured by the presence of those powerful cultivators there."
"Do you think I can reach the Five Celestial Realms in eighteen years?" Feng Jinqiu asked.
Zhang Fei [5] turned to Feng Jinqiu and gave her several bottles of his Yang Qi. "If you want to reach that stage in eighteen years, you have no other choice but to cultivate using my Yang Qi. Additionally, you can stay in my pavilion, like Senior Sister Jing Qiuyue, if you want your cultivation to be faster."
’This guy!’ Feng Jinqiu accepted Zhang Fei’s Yang Qi and stored the bottle in her storage ring, but she had not yet decided whether to use it. "Since Jing Qiuyue lives in your pavilion, I will live there with her from the future."
"Yeah," Zhang Fei [5] then asked Feng Xueying. "How about you also live with them, Senior Xueying? Your cultivation has indeed reached the 1-Sun Celestial Lord Realm, but there are too many cultivators far stronger than you there. If you cultivate in my pavilion for the next eighteen years, you might have broken through several minor stages by the ti we leave."
Feng Xueying nodded slightly. "I’ll be staying with Feng Jinqiu and Jing Qiuyue there."
"That’s good." Zhang Fei and the others imdiately looked up at Feng Shen, who was flying toward them.
The ancestor of the Fire Phoenix race was shocked when he couldn’t detect Feng Xueying’s cultivation. "Have you broken through to that realm?"
"My cultivation is at the 1-Sun Celestial Lord Realm now." Feng Xueying replied with a nod.
Feng Shen was jealous after hearing that, especially since their previous cultivation was equal, but Feng Xueying had already surpassed him now.
Zhang Fei [5] directly spoke to him. "You don’t need to be jealous of her, especially since I plan to bring all the phoenixes, whether the fire phoenix or ice phoenix, to the Paradise Realm in the future. At that ti, your cultivation will also break through to the Five Celestial Realms. However, I still don’t have a strong foundation there, so I won’t do it anyti soon, so you have to wait patiently."
"Are you really going to bring all the phoenixes to that realm? Where will we live then?"
"Do I need to lie to you?" Zhang Fei [5] shook his head in return. "Feng Tian and Feng Jiu have already handed over the phoenix race to , so they are my family too, and I will take you all to that realm in the future. As for your next residence, I will discuss this matter with Feng Yao first. She is the leader of the Blazing Nirvana Domain, so I think she will probably place you all there. We will discuss this matter again in the future, especially since I returned here to accompany my big sister through the ice phoenix ritual."
Feng Shen turned directly to Zhang Yue, and he was shocked to learn that her cultivation had already reached the 1-Moon Divine Transcend Realm.
Zhang Fei [5] simply shook his head at Feng Shen’s expression and then asked Feng Xueying to lead them again.
.
.

A while later, they arrived at Feng Xueying’s frozen lake, but the Frozen Lotus Basin wasn’t there. She led them through the frozen lake until they reached the edge of the clearing, but there was nothing there except a frozen flower crystal.
Feng Xueying directly spoke to Zhang Fei [5]. "The Frozen Lotus Basin is a separate dinsion built by the first Ice Phoenix, so I’ll send Zhang Yue there now, and the Ice Phoenix ritual will begin as soon as she arrives."
"Can I accompany her in there?" Zhang Fei [5] asked this, observing the frozen flower crystal.
"No." Zhang Fei [5] turned to Feng Xueying directly. "Only ice phoenixes and those with ice phoenix bloodlines can enter that place, so you can’t accompany her there. Moreover, her cultivation is quite high now, and she has surpassed those who have undergone the ritual in the past, so you shouldn’t need to worry about her, right?"
"Senior Xueying, you have lived with for so many years, so you should already understand my character, right?" Zhang Yue wanted to stop Zhang Fei [5], but instead, he prevented her from intervening. "Even though my big sister’s cultivation is quite high, I can’t possibly allow her to undergo such risky trials by herself. Since the only requirent to enter that place is to possess the ice phoenix bloodline, I hope you are willing to give ten drops of your origin bloodline. This way, I can accompany her there, and I will help her complete the trials."
Feng Xueying let out a soft sigh because Zhang Fei [5] was being overly protective of Zhang Yue, but she imdiately agreed to his request by taking ten drops of her origin Ice Phoenix Bloodline before handing it to him. "Usually, I wouldn’t give my bloodline to anyone, but you’ve helped so much in getting to my current stage, so I’m giving it to you."
"Thank you." Zhang Fei [5] imdiately stored Feng Xueying’s bloodline in a bottle and stored it in the system’s inventory, which allows his real body or other clones to use it in the pavilion, speeding up the rging of his bloodline. "Let’s wait for a while."
As they waited, Feng Xueying explained to them about the Ice Phoenix Trials. "The trials are divided into five stages, but no one has ever made it past the third stage. The first is the Frozen Soul Gate, and you must walk through a corridor of glacial winds that freeze one’s soul and endure the chilling pressure of the Ice Phoenix’s aura, but weak-willed or impure souls will be instantly expelled. The second is the Mirror of the Heart, which will test your heart clarity and emotional balance. The third is the Fla Within Ice, and it—"
"Fla within the ice?"
"Even though the Ice Phoenix’s basic elent is the ice elent, we can also awaken our flas, specifically the Cold Fla." Feng Xueying then stretched out her right hand, and a light blue fla appeared above her palm. However, it didn’t feel hot in the slightest, but instead, it emitted a cold aura. "This cold fla can freeze almost anything in this universe, except for the fla of the Fire Phoenix and the golden fla of the Golden Crow."
"What are the fourth and fifth trials, Senior?" Zhang Yue asked.
"The fourth is Silent ditation, but I’m sure you won’t have any trouble passing it. The third trial is the most challenging, and if you fail, you will face the sa fate as your predecessors." Zhang Yue took a deep breath after Feng Xueying said that. "The fifth and final trial is the Bloodline Awakening; you must endure the baptism of divine cold and ancestral cry. Once you rge with the remnant soul or blood essence of the Ice Phoenix, your ice phoenix bloodline will be fully awakened, and your strength will increase significantly."
"What will happen if she fails to awaken her bloodline?" Zhang Fei [5] asked.
"She will freeze to death." Feng Xueying’s answer caused Zhang Fei [5] to frown. "Since you will inherit my Ice Phoenix bloodline soon, you will also face the rituals inside, so I don’t think you will have a chance to help Zhang Yue."
Zhang Fei [5] nodded in understanding. "Even though you say that, I believe I can help her. The cold of the ice phoenix is indeed terrifying, but you surely rember that I possess the phoenix fla and the golden crow fla, right? Since you said that the cold cannot freeze those two flas, I should have no difficulty in facing my trials, and I will help my big sister pass hers."
"Yes." Feng Xueying nodded at him. "Tell when you’re ready, and I’ll send you both in there straightaway."
