Chapter 30: Han Fei in Self-Dimensional Space
Adrien began showing Han Fi the palace located within his self-dimensional space. Han Fi looked around eagerly—her eyes held the wonder of someone stepping into a dream realm for the first time.
After some time, once they had finished touring the entire palace, Adrien led Han Fi toward the Dual Cultivation Room.
This place was new even for Adrien; he, too, was entering this mysterious chamber for the first time.
The moment they stepped inside, a strange drowsy haze settled over them—as if an invisible energy in the air was slowing both mind and body.
Han Fi, who had been standing a little distance away from him before, unconsciously moved closer and gripped his hands tightly.
Adrien did not stop her.
He enjoyed Han Fi's presence as well—there had been no one in his past life who was truly his own. Even the girl he once had left him for money.
Adrien looked around the Dual Cultivation Room. This was no ordinary chamber.
It wasn't just a room but an entirely separate space—a great hall that seemed even more grand than the palace itself.
At its center stood a massive bed, large enough for at least 7–8 people to lie on at once.
A short distance away was a pool-like structure—but it was no ordinary pool; the energy rising from it made that clear.
Adrien asked the system, "System, where will Han Fi cultivate?"
The system replied, "The pool before you is the Yin and Yang Qi Pool. Han Fi must cultivate there—at least until she begins dual cultivation."
Adrien looked carefully at the pool.
It was truly unusual—quite large, tranquil, and filled with spiritual energy.The pool was divided into two parts—on one side the water was white, shimmering faintly with a pale blue glimmer; on the other side the water shone with a golden-orange radiance.It was clear that one side represented Yin energy and the other Yang energy.
Adrien took Han Fi's hand and led her to the divine pool. He knew this place was about to become the starting point of their next stage.
Han Fi sat down at the pool's edge—right where the Yin energy was densest.
As soon as she settled into a meditative posture, her Pure Yin Body naturally began drawing the pool's pure Yin Qi into itself.
Her breathing gradually steadied, and a faint blue mist began forming around her—as if nature itself had come to assist her cultivation.
Adrien stood a short distance away, watching closely. He had never seen anyone cultivate with such calm and balance before.
The system's voice sounded: "Han Fi's body type—Pure Yin Body—is extremely rare. And the technique she is using is the Yin Nourishing Sutra. This special sutra strengthens her internal Yin energy while purifying and stabilizing all the channels in her body."
Slowly, pure Yin Qi began flowing into her meridians, and Han Fi started opening them according to the Yin Nourishing Sutra.
Adrien stood quietly, watching as she opened her meridians. After some time, a loud surge echoed—and Qi began flooding into Han Fi's body like mad.
Boom...
Boom...
Boom....
Han Fi's cultivation began to rise. The pace was no less than Adrien's own when he had first cultivated. Time passed as Adrien silently monitored both the system and Han Fi's condition.
Adrien said to the system, "System, keep an eye on Han Fi. Stop her the moment something goes wrong."
The system replied, "If the host fears that something may happen to Han Fi, then do not worry. I am monitoring her condition. When the right time comes, I will stop her."
Adrien did not respond; he kept his gaze locked on Han Fi.
By now, Han Fi's cultivation had reached Beginner Stage 5, but her speed was beginning to slow.
Adrien asked, "System, how did Han Fi's cultivation increase so quickly? She hasn't even consumed a pill."
The system said, "You are taking a constitutional body far too lightly. As long as Han Fi has sufficient Yin or Yang Qi available, her cultivation will rise rapidly. That is why girls with this body type are the most suited for dual cultivation."
Adrien said to the system, "Han Fi won't need to perform dual cultivation. As long as this pool exists, her cultivation will keep increasing."
The system replied, "Host, the amount of Qi in the Yin and Yang Pool is limited. A time will come when Han Fi's cultivation will stop progressing."
Adrien said, "When that time comes, we'll deal with it. For now, I don't want Han Fi to perform dual cultivation."
A silent voice echoed within the system, one that Adrien could not hear —"Host, you still don't understand the Pure Yin Body. A time will come when you'll have to perform dual cultivation with Han Fi yourself. Otherwise, her condition will worsen, and if she doesn't undergo dual cultivation... then no one will be able to save her."
When Han Fi's cultivation reached Mortal Beginner Stage 7, a woman's voice echoed in the Dual Cultivation Room —"Han Fi, now stop your cultivation and calm your Qi as instructed in the Yin Nourishing Sutra."
Hearing the voice, Adrien was also startled. The system then said,"I did that, so Han Fi never loses control during her cultivation. Just as you asked — I will always watch over her when she cultivates."
Adrien asked, "System, what's your gender? Why are you speaking like a woman?"
The system replied, "I have no gender. But Han Fi is a girl, and she wouldn't like the idea of being watched by a voice that sounds like a man."
Adrien didn't listen to the rest. He just picked out one point and said,"System, you have no gender? Then are you gay or a lesbian? Though I guess you're technically nothing."
But before Adrien could finish his sentence, he was struck by a jolt of lightning.
The system's cold voice followed —"Host, I am the system — the most powerful existence in this world and universe. Even gods who consider themselves rulers of the cosmos are nothing before me. And you're making fun of me?"
From the shock, Adrien realized that the system was angry.
Adrien said, "Alright, alright, I was just joking. You took it too seriously."
The system didn't reply.
On the other side, hearing a woman's voice had startled Han Fi a little, but she still felt her Qi was unstable, so she did exactly what the woman's voice had instructed. She began calming her Qi.
Within just a few hours, Han Fi's Qi completely stabilized, and her level became steady. She then opened her eyes. When she looked around, everything seemed slightly changed. She had become more aware of her surroundings.
Han Fi looked at Adrien and immediately ran toward him, hugging him tightly. Adrien was surprised by this sudden act but held her in his arms as well.
After a while, they separated. Han Fi's cheeks were red like tomatoes.
Adrien asked, "Han Fi, how do you feel after cultivation?"
Han Fi replied, "Young Master, it feels wonderful. I feel a strength within me—as if I can do anything."
Adrien gently patted her head and said softly, "That's good, but always remember—this world of cultivation is cruel. Never underestimate anyone. And from now on, don't call me Young Master. Call me Adrien. You're no longer an ordinary human—you're a cultivator now."
Han Fi nodded in agreement. Then she stepped forward, held Adrien's hand, and hugged him again.
Adrien said, "Let's go outside now. It must be night by now."
Han Fi asked, "But I've been sitting here for hours in cultivation."
Adrien was about to say something when a sweet and gentle voice echoed —"The time in this space flows ten times faster than the outside world. You've spent around sixteen hours here, but in the outer world, only about two hours have passed."
Adrien was slightly annoyed at the system for interrupting him again. He was about to speak, but Han Fi asked,"Who are you? Why can't I see you?"
The voice replied, "I am the guardian of this space, daughter. Adrien asked me to always watch over you because he was worried that if he wasn't around, you might be harmed."
Adrien said to the system in his mind, "System, what are you doing?"
The system replied, "I'm just helping Han Fi understand the environment."
Adrien didn't say anything further. Han Fi looked at Adrien and asked,"Young Master—I mean, Adrien—were you really that worried about me?"
Adrien scratched his head and said,"You can come and go in this space whenever you want, whether I'm here or not. That's why I spoke with the guardian and asked her to help you during your training."
Hearing this, Han Fi moved even closer to Adrien and said,"Thank you, Adrien."
Adrien didn't say anything, just nodded slightly. Then the two of them left the self-dimensional space together.
