I alone am the Honoured One!

It's been seven months since Zhao Tian entered seclusion~

*flick* The eerie golden light around the chamber began to dim faintly and the runes also lost their color after seven months of usage of the artifact.

*swoosh* The small door of the chamber slid open and steam fizzled up from inside as Zhao Tian stepped out beads of sweat drenching his whole body.

"Haa... Haa..."

He took deep breaths as beads of sweat dropped from his face and it rippled on the floor.

His blue eyes wandered around the room and he quickly unfastened his buttons removing the shirt from his body, which was fully wet with his sweat.

Throwing the shirt on the floor, he stretched his body feeling his tight muscles twist after sitting in the same position for seven months.

"Fuck.. uhhh."

*creek* "Tian..."

Sensing his presence, Xia Shenyi quickly entered the room, and a flash of surprise passed through her eyes looking at Zhao Tian's face.

Her gaze swept over his ripped muscles and was astounded to see his handsome face which was refined even more because of the Honoured One Physique cultivation technique he was practicing after reaching the Empyreal realm.

Earlier, he looked like a handsome young man.. but now his face seems quite mature, and his hair has also grown taller.

Snapping out of her daze, she quickly walked toward him "Tian... is everything all right?"

Zhao Tian glanced at her, a soft smile appearing on his face "Yeah... it is just that I am quite sweaty."

Xia Shenyi's eyes glowed faintly as she looked through his cultivation and a smile appeared on her face "This is great.. Tian..."

"You have reached the 6th level of the Soul Refine stage..."

Looking at her, Zhao Tian gave a faint nod "Yeah... I feel great and I can feel my control over the astral energy has also been improved."

Smiling, Xia Shnyi spoke "Come on, let me wash your body first..."

With a shake of his head, he replied "No, before that I need to meet everyone..."

Zhao Tian used his senses to look through the artifact and a slight frown crept over his face "Where are the others?"

Hearing the question, Xia Shenyi lowered her gaze "Um.. that's Tian."

Hm? Seeing her hesitation, Zhao Tian's gaze narrowed "Shenyi, what happened? Where are they?"

Xia Shenyi took a deep breath and turned to leave the room "Come with me, Tian..."

...

Huh?

Standing inside another room, Zhao Tian's gaze trembled looking at the number of chambers in the room, all the chambers pulsating with golden runes.

"What is... "

Letting out a soft sigh, he turned to look at Xia Shenyi who had a guilty look on her face "Shenyi..."

Xia Shenyi hugged him and kissed his lips "Tian... listen to me."

With a nod, he hugged her back "Tell me, I am listening..."

Patting his head, Xia Shenyi began to speak "TIan... after some days of you starting your seclusion, Ning Xue thought of completing the black pagoda and on completion, she also received awards."

"In the last 9th level she also got the same artifact as you... and only she can use that artifact."

Zhao Tian's gaze squinted upon hearing this and he turned to look at all the chambers in the room "So they all decided to... enter seclusion?"

"But... why do they have to do this? It's only 7 months... and after I come out of the cultivation, I can have dual cultivate with them and easily increase their cultivation."

"Then... why?"

Xia Shenyi's eyes condensed as she replied "Idiot... Entering the Empyreal realm is not as easy as you think it is."

"Because of your physique... you are spoiled and think everything is so easy."

"You can control and flow the astral energy in your body easily because of your physique, but it's not the same for others..."

"They have to train hard to control their astral energy and absorb it properly in their body, stabilizing the energy."

"That is the whole reason why we put seals on Ning Yueli and Chi Shui... because you had sex with them while you were on Half Empyreal Stage..."

"So, their bodies that is new to cultivation, is filled with the energy of the Half-Empyreal stage..."

"We used, layers of seal to slowly train them and learn to control this energy."

"That is the same now, if you are in Empyreal Realm and had sex with them.. sure, their cultivation will skyrocket.. but their control over the humongous astral energy will be disrupted..."

"In the worst scenario, that could even break their cultivation base... straining their meridians."

"So... they have to practice to control these humongous amounts of astral energy."

"It is best for them to cultivate through the starting stages of Empyreal realm..."

"When they come out, they will have good control over their astral energy and you can have sex with them however you want and they can stabilize the energy in their body."

Looking at his disheartened face, Xia Shenyi kissed her lips "Forgive me Tian, I was the one who forced them to enter seclusion..."

"They all wanted you to come out and ask your opinion. But I know... you wouldn't want to leave them and you will most likely not agree..."

"I know how possessive you are..."

"And Tian, if you have all the wives here... you have to give attention to all of them and you can't really concentrate on your affairs in the High Stars."

"So, I came up with this idea..."

"Forgive me."

Zhao Tian rubbed his temples as he took a deep breath hearing her explanation, but it did make sense.

He glanced back at the number of chambers and his eyes trembled "I will... miss them."

"How long will it take for them? They will come out in 7 months?"

Hearing the question, Xia Shenyi shook her head "No... at least four years."

Huh? Zhao Tian was shocked to hear this and Xia Shenyi replied "You can complete it in 7 months because of your physique..."

"But they are not Honoured Ones..."

Zhao Tian's heart tightened upon hearing this "Then... I can't see them for four years?"

Xia Shenyi hugged him closer and kissed him "I am sorry... Tian."
