章 32: Rewards

Shen Yuan finished washing up and sat on the bed inside the room to wonder about a few things. He asked the system, "Hey system, I remembered there was 'temporary' written next to my combat strength tab, show that to me again."

[Ding!]

[Battle Power- 220 Tons/ Higher than normal Bone Forging Cultivators.(Temporary)]

"Now System, show me my current strength."

[Ding!]

[Battle Power- 150 Tons/ Higher than normal Altering Muscle realm cultivator.]

Shen Yuan blinked his eyes in confusion as he asked the system, "Why did my strength decrease? Wasn't it 220 tons before?"

The system replied,

[Host strength was temporarily increased due to Host's physique. Since the host's current cultivation base can't control the Physique it shows its effects at random. Due to the Host's action with Huo Rong in the bathroom, the physique was activated and temporarily gave the host a small boost.]

Shen Yuan nodded his head in understanding as he understood what the system meant, "Alright, I understand this. Now show me both of the quests that you have given me before."

[ Quest: A Kiss from Huo Rong or Bing Rong]

Objective: Receive a kiss from either Huo Rong or Bing Rong.

Details:

- Quest Description: The system has detected a strong emotional bond between you and both of your aunts Huo Rong and Bing Rong. To deepen this connection and test your charm, the system has issued a quest for you to receive a kiss from one of them.

[Congratulations, Host! Due to your exceptional performance, you have earned additional rewards.]

[Rewards;

1- 300 Chaos Coins

2- Flesh Enhancement Pill x10

3- Cultivators Basic Robes x10

Shen Yuan read the list of rewards as he nodded, "300 Chaos Coins and 10 Flesh Enhancement Pills, good enough for the first quest, explain what this strengthening elixir is.

[Flesh Enhancement Pill: A pill that enhances the natural muscle and flesh of the body, accelerating progress in the Flesh Training stage.

"Hmm, so it's the same as the previous elixir?"

[Flesh Enhancement pill will also increase the strength of the host's body by a slight amount.]

Shen Yuan put away the rewards in his system space, looking at it he thought, 'This system space is too precious to be wasted with these low-level things, I will ask Mom to give me a storage ring later.'

"Alright, now show me yesterday's quest objectives and rewards."

[Ding!]

-Objectives:

1- Spend the night in Huo Rong and Bing Rong's room.

2- Learn more about their past.

3- Make them reveal their true status.

3- Yin-Yang Lotus Seed: A rare treasure formed from the union of fire and ice energies. Consuming it enhances dual-element cultivation, increases affinity with fire and ice, and boosts cultivation speed.

[Ding!]

[Quest Completed.]

[Congratulations, Host! Due to completing all objectives, you have earned Bonus rewards as well.]

[Rewards:

1- Dual Elemental Jade Bracelets

2- Sword 34

3- Yin-Yang Lotus Seed

Shen Yuan excitedly looked through all the rewards, he tried to pick up the Sword 34 first but he couldn't even budge it with all his strength, "System, put this sword in inventory. Looks like I need to increase my cultivation base first before using it."

He then looked towards the next gift, the jade bracelets, "I will just give this to Sister Huo Rong and Sister Bing Rong, these would be perfect for them." He put them away, while his gaze finally landed on the Lotus Seed.

He asked the system, "Tell me the best use of this seed system, would it be better to consume it or grow it?"

[Host should keep the Lotus Flower for now, you can't make use of it before the host reaches the Qi refining realm. And the next update of the system will be useful to make use of this seed's fullest potential.]

Shen Yuan hummed in agreement as he put the seed away as well.

…

Shen Yuan was walking through the hallway alone since Huo Rong and Bing Rong said they overslept and needed some time to get prepared, it wasn't problematic as they weren't really the maids of his mother and they didn't have to pretend in front of Shen Yuan anymore.

Shen Yuan reached the dining hall gate and swung it open, inside were maids preparing food and Shen Yuxin was sitting there looking outside the window, but when she felt the dining room door open, she turned her face to look at who it was.

She smiled lightly as she saw it was Shen Yuan, she motioned for him to sit down at the dining table, and Shen Yuan went and sat on his chair beside Shen Yuxin

Shen Yuxin looked towards him and asked with a faint smile, "How was your sleep Yuan'er? Did you enjoy yourself?"

Shen Yuan smiled slightly as he replied in a good mood, "Yes Mom, I enjoyed myself very much, I got to know a lot about them, and I even learned that they are your disciples. I always had my suspicions that they aren't normal maids of yours. I didn't expect them to be your disciples.

Shen Yuxin had expected for the sisters to tell him about themselves so she wasn't surprised as she asked back, "So, what do you think about it? Are you happy now that they become your sisters? Well, I can tell you are happy without even asking hahaha."

They continued talking for quite some time more, Shen Yuan sharing some things from the previous night as they waited for Huo Rong and Bing Rong to join them for breakfast.

章 33: Reason for Strength Dropping

It didn't take long for both Huo Rong and Bing Rong to come to the dining hall with simply decorated Red and Blue cultivator robes respectfully.

Shen Yuan looked towards them and his eyes brightened as he complimented them, "You both look so gorgeous today Sister Huo, Sister Bing."

Huo Rong and Bing Rong smiled gently at his compliment as they went to sit on their respective seats.

They chatted and talked about Shen Yuan's training while eating, deciding on how he would train.

Time passed as they finished their breakfast, Shen Yuxin stood up and said, "Alright, let's go to the training room to continue this talk."

Shen Yuan and all the others finished their breakfast and went to the training room. Shen Yuan entered the training and he was still in awe of its absurd size.

'These mystical realms are really absurd, but I think I heard these are the lowest types of inheritance grounds, there might be more good stuff in those higher-level inheritance grounds.'

He wondered as he entered the training room. He stood alone aside from Huo Rong, Bing Rong, and Shen Yuxin, ready to train as he asked his mother, "Mom, will I train my combat skills with the training puppets today?"

Shen Yuxin nodded her head and replied, "Yes, Yuan'er. It's important to train your basics as well, if you have a solid foundation from a young age then you will be able to master your abilities later in your life."

Shen Yuan agreed with her, "Alright Mom, but I want to tell you something." He spoke with a hint of nervousness in his voice, fearing what she would think when he told her about his strength.

Shen Yuxin felt his nervousness as she smiled lightly and asked, "What happened Yuan'er? You can tell me anything." She reassured him with comforting words.

Shen Yuan took a deep breath before he started speaking, "I tested my strength in the morning and I think it's around 150 tons and not 220 tons before I had that strength due to my physique effect."

Shen Yuxin heaved a sigh of relief as she thought that something had gone wrong with his cultivation, she smiled and replied, "It doesn't matter Yuan'er, you are still much more powerful than others of the same level, you haven't even taken any treasure or pills to increase your strength. As for your physique, do you know what kind of physique it is? I have never heard of this physique before."

In the end, her voice was filled with curiosity and wonder, totally ignoring the fact that Shen Yuan had become weaker than before, she didn't show the slightest bit of disappointment in Shen Yuan, she just treated it as his physique's advantage.

Shen Yuan felt warm in his chest at the care of his mother, she didn't even ask how he knew and why he hadn't told her before, she was only looking out for him.

Shen Yuan thought for a second, he didn't want to tell that about his physique yet because he was embarrassed about admitting that he had a dual cultivation oriented physique. He made up an excuse, "I don't know what kind of physique it is mom, I only know that it increases my power randomly."

Shen Yuxin didn't press further as she saw that he didn't want to talk about his physique, she changed the topic and began, "Alright, let's start your training," She took out another wooden puppet but its vibes were different than the ones before. It was more aggressive and menacing.

"This puppet is best for your current level, it can withstand 160 tons of force and it unleashed 100 tons of force." She spoke with a cheering tone.

Shen Yuan's face twitched a little as he asked, "Mom, are you trying to kill me with this puppet?!? I have never even trained, this will be a one-sided beating."

Shen Yuxin slapped her forehead lightly as she totally forgot about this, she put the puppet back and spoke in an embarrassed tone, "Cough, I forgot about that, let's first start with training your basic stances."

Shen Yuan heaved a sigh of relief as he thought that she was really going to kill him, he nodded his head and asked, "Okay Mom, how should I begin?"

Shen Yuxin began teaching him about the basic fighting stance, telling him where to place his foot, how to take advantage of momentum, where to strike, and how to dodge, she gave him a long theoretical and practical lecture where she made him do the poses so he can understand it better.

Shen Yuan kept absorbing the knowledge like a sponge and growing better at it at a visible rate.

Shen Yuxin looked at it and nodded while saying, "Alright, Shen Yuan, we will continue training like this for the next 3 days."

Shen Yuan nodded his head with determination and spoke, "I will train until my body collapses or until it's time to eat food."

Shen Yuxin's face bloomed with a slight smile.

Thus Shen Yuan's daily training routine began, and the system kept giving him random quests for two days as well.

[Quest: Hold the hand of Huo Rong for 10 minutes.]

[Reward: 3x Dust Free Robes and 50 Chaos Coins.]

[Quest: Ask Bing Rong about what kind of man she likes.]

[Reward: Frost Jade Bed.]

…

On the third day, Shen Yuan finished his basic training, Shen Yuxin spoke, "You are really a genius Shen Yuan, you only took 2 days to nearly master the basic fighting style, even the other top geniuses take months at your age to learn it."

Shen Yuan smiled lightly, as even he didn't think that he would be so good at it, 'Looks like it's due to my bloodline, otherwise, my physique is dual cultivation oriented and it won't give me such a huge boost.'

Shen Yuan then thought about the challenge from which he ran away last time, he confidently spoke, "Mom, Take out the training puppet, let me make quick work of it."
