There was quite a massive construction in one part of the mansion when he arrived, the efforts put into it being as massive as they could effectively be while Lian Zhiqiu and Madam Liang constantly appeared on the construction site which was first going strong but then seemingly almost disappeared if looked from the outside.
It was a giant underground facility with multiple cultivation chambers of different sizes.
All chambers and the entire facility had formations that trapped Spiritual Qi inside, and as soon as it would be finished, Wu Long would fill it with the incredibly rich Spiritual Qi from the Secret Realm in abundance.
Though of course only using a small portion of what he had as even an advanced formation was not able to hold more than 2-3% of the quantity he absorbed.
There were two main parts of the facility, one smaller private part for Wu Long and his women which was completely severed from the rest. It had the highest concentration of Spiritual Qi as well.
The other part was more vast with many chambers, each with designated group of users.
The room with the richest concentration in the second section would be used interchangeably by Butler Bang, Old Yen when he arrived at the mansion, as well as General Feng with his son.
There was also a separate room for their subordinates, as the quantity in that room was reduced to just slightly higher than in the normal surroundings.
All rooms were connected with a small reserve and a formation that constantly supplied the chambers when the concentration of Spiritual Qi fell.
Meanwhile, Wu Long spent his days with his women, going on dates with each of them in the day and discussing the Dao with Luo Mingyu in the evenings. She now understood the concepts he introduced into their discussions more easily and absorbed knowledge with unbelievable speed.
He was at the stthinking out his new technique as well as going through the memorized information he got from the Frozen Garden Palace.
Ye Ling was the first to go on a date with him after Bi Rui, spending leisurely and romantic ttogether as the construction of the cultivation facility was nearing completion, and the private part was already finished.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter their date, Ye Ling would go in and start to cultivate first, as she could only do so when he was in the mansion, since she normally was the one protecting it in his absence.
"Thank you, Ling'er. You always get the short end of the stick, but your help is truly indispensable. I really am grateful"
He whispered into her ear as they walked the streets.
"Haha, did you not speak of tin philosophical terms? Or do you mistakefor a mortal now just because you've lived longer than me?"
She chuckled with a gentle smile and a glint of playfulness in her eyes.
"You know what I mean,..."
He wryly smiled in response.
"...I am letting you shoulder my responsibilities as my strength is limited"
"Hmm, it is normal as there are just too many limitations in the Nine Mortal Realms.
Even with all your skills and knowledge, when you had yet to enter Qi Manifestation Realm you couldn't even effectively use Spiritual Qi outside your body, and that is not a problem of knowledge.
That is just a fact.
We both know that until we reach Seven Profound Realms there are simply too many limitations on us both no matter how rich our experience is, or how powerful the techniques we know are"
She calmly spoke as he nodded, agreeing with her words.
"That does not makeany less grateful to you"
"Hahaha, you just don't understand that it brings me... no it brings all of us joy to be able to help, so I might as well enjoy it while it lasts"
"Heh, are you implying that I am taking too much on by myself?"
She stopped as they were passing a bridge over a river, turning to him as he stopped as well.
"Are you not? You speak about assembling your force and about having allies, but you effectively are trying to stretch your protection over everyone and everything.
What do you need a force for if all it does is take up your time, attention and efforts without giving you anything at all? I understand that now is a period of growth for all of it, but there always be obstacles we have to face, they have to start pulling their own weight at spoint"
She raised her hands to touch his cheeks, her deep blue eyes looking into his.
"I know you spent a long... long talone, My Love, but you have to learn to lean on those around you. Especially us, your Dao Family.
The others don't say it but they all think so too, they all want you to rely on them even if a little"
There was a tinge of pain in her gaze when she mentioned his talone, and his hands went up to hold hers, as he took her right palm and turned to kiss it, breathing in her scent as he closed his eyes.
"I... will try"He then replied with a short answer as his eyelids went back up, not running from or denying her claim as he knew it was true. She smiled and nodded, as they continued with their date.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA week after Ye Ling went into closed-doors cultivation, Yu Huan notified him that the first three samples of purified Demonic Beast blood were ready, and he immediately started experimenting with the bloodlines.
What he noticed right off the bat was that the Blood Rune no longer reacted, which was slightly disappointing but not devastating.
But as soon as he refined the blood and it mixed into his bloodstream, he could feel the Rune, and through it...
'I... can feel the exact blood flow, characteristics, unique traits and every single detail of the bloodline... this is...'
His eyes widened as he realized the miraculous effect.
'And... it is a passive ability... I am certain that this Rune's true power is much more deep...'
He thought as he felt the way the Rune operated, finally getting a tiny bit of insight into it.
And that insight solidified a feeling that he only touched the surface of this Dao Rune's secrets.
This ability made his work much easier, though it of course did not solve every problem for him, as he still had to figure out the technique on his own.
Another week passed with him being completely absorbed in working with bloodlines, as he tested out his theories and started making rapid progress while Yu Huan continued to supply new purified samples.
It was a rather tedious work, not unlike when inventors made repeated trials and errors, trying to figure something out.
But his work quickly started giving results, as the outline of the bloodline manipulation part of his new Body Tempering technique already started taking shape.
A day cwhen Sui Luxiao informed him that her negotiations with the Tuamei Kingdom went well, and that another delegation was going to arrive in the Yin Yang Unity Palace.
He also received a message from Qiu Yilao who confirmed that they have reached a decision to accept his proposal and would soon gather the disciples to survey their willingness to participate.
And another communication message cto him that evening, that solidified the need to depart for another trip, though this one much shorter than the last.
This the took Sui Luxiao, Cao Xiang, Cao Mei and Lian Zhiqiu with him, the rest entering the cultivation chamber while Ye Ling cout, and the five moved out toward the Yin Yang Unity Palace.
