Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

During that time, Shen Xu, Zhen Yuan, and the others killed countless low-level and high-level sea beasts.

Fortunately, their efforts were not in vain, and before they knew it, the triplets successfully transformed into their phoenix form.

Even more fortunate, although the tribulation attracted many sea beasts, it didn’t provoke human cultivators.

"We are lucky, but we shouldn’t linger in this place." Zhen Yuan said, and Shen Xu nodded.

After sending everyone to the portable mountain, the two cast one dozen forgetting inscriptions on the island before leaving.

The journey to the Golden Rock Island was uneventful.

After arriving, they discovered that the island was abandoned and all the resources had been taken away.

Thankfully, the hidden cave hadn’t been discovered, and the two successfully entered without encountering any trouble.

The cave was as they had left it.

Seeing this, the two didn’t linger there and also entered the space.

"We have arrived?" Xuanyuan Yue asked, looking at Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan.

"Mmh." Shen Xu nodded and quickly continued.

"The Island is empty, and the cave is as we left it. We can retreat here without any worries." He said.

After that, the group rested for one month, only eating and drinking.

On this day, Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan gathered everyone together and began distributing storage rings.

"The storage rings contain your cultivation resources." Shen Xu started with a solemn face.

"They have enough resources to cultivate your qi and soul power to the peak of level nine." He said and turned to Feng Xue.

"Feng Xue, don’t forget to give the triplets your remaining phoenix treasures." He said, and Feng Xue nodded.

She got a lot of phoenix treasures from the Flaming Hell.

However, Shen Xu couldn’t touch them, so he could only rely on Feng Xue to distribute them.

"Check your storage rings and let us know if there is anything else that you need." The double said, and everyone began checking.

"Shen Xu, what is this?" Mo Ling asked, taking out a bottle.

"Drops of clarity." The double answered and quickly continued.

"You can refine them to improve your comprehension ability." He said.

In addition to the specific cultivation resources, each of the storage rings contained a bottle of drops of clarity, enlightenment pills, golden light pills, golden body pills, a bottle of golden rock milk, three soul nourishing fruits, a bottle of soul nourishing dew, a bottle of soul water, a dozen soul stones, soul fishes, blue crystal fishes, spirit stones, spiritual fruits, spiritual wine, spiritual food and countless other pills.

"Is it okay to give us so many things?" Xuanyuan Yang asked, simultaneously feeling grateful and embarrassed.

"You must repay this favour in the future." Feng Xue said, looking at Mo Ling and her children with serious eyes.

"We understand." They said.

After that, the triplets and Mo Ling entered their houses, sealed the courtyards, and went into seclusion.

Seeing this, Yang Shi sighed.

"One day outside is two days on the portable mountain. Will they have enough time to advance?" He asked.

"There is nothing we can do." Shen Xu said and began explaining.

"We don’t have a contract with Mo Ling and the triplets, so the space excludes them and won’t allow them to enjoy the time difference." He said.

"Double the time is already good enough." Feng Xue said.

"They may not advance to the peak-stage of the tribulation transcending realm within twenty thousand space years, but it won’t be a problem to break through to the mid or late stage." Zhen Yuan said and looked at everyone with thoughtful eyes.

Li Wenqiang, Feng Xue, Yin Shi, and Yang Shi were at the early stage of the tribulation transcending realm. Most importantly, their cultivation was completely stable, and it would be no problem to practice to the peak stage.

"Wenqiang, are your resources enough?" Shen Xu asked with a worried expression.

Unlike Feng Xue and Yang Shi, Li Wenqiang had already used up all the resources that he got in the Tianqi continent.

Because of this, Shen Xu was worried that the resources that he and Zhen Yuan prepared for Li Wenqiang would not be enough to advance to the peak stage of level nine.

"Don’t worry." Li Wenqiang said and quickly continued.

"The ghost soul pills refined from the ghost spider demon core are enough to advance to the peak-stage of level nine." He said, and the double raised an eyebrow.

"What about the nether water?" He asked.

The nether water was found in an orb that Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan took out from the Tianxuan sect’s treasure house.

After finding it, they thought that it was a priceless treasure for Li Wenqiang, but didn’t expect that he didn’t plan to use it.

"Although it’s not much, the nether water is an invaluable treasure. It’s just right to break through from the peak stage of level nine to level ten." Li Wenqiang said.

Shen Xu was shocked when he heard this.

After all, he had previously assumed that Li Wenqiang would require both the pills and nether water to advance to the peak stage of level nine. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Don’t try to save resources. We can always get more." He said, and Li Wenqiang nodded in understanding.

Soon after, everyone went to their caves, and the couple teleported to the bamboo hut.

"We are finally retreating." Shen Xu said and leaned his head on Zhen Yuan’s shoulder.

"This retreat will be long." The man said, and Shen Xu nodded.

In addition to advancing their qi and soul cultivation, the two also planned to refine the chaos water, immortal marrow, and rootless colourful water lily petals, amongst other things.

"I estimate that we won’t be able to come out until three to five thousand real years later." The double said.

"One hundred thousand space years is a long time to go without touching my Xiaoxu." Zhen Yuan said and pulled Shen Xu onto his lap.

Soon after, a song of harmony filled the room and didn’t stop until one year later.
