[Congratulations! You have reached the limit of the Monarch Spiritual Realm and are about to go through the Divine Celestial Tribulation.]

Before anything, information that he was about to go through the Divine Celestial Tribulation suddenly appeared in his retina.
Rya suddenly appeared in front of Theo and suggested, ["Master, why don't you merge the affinities? If you do, you don't necessarily need to leave the [Dimensional Room] and go through the Divine Celestial Tribulation. By merging the affinities, it will also increase the strength of Master's body, and because of that, Master can continue to strengthen without needing to go to the next Realm."]
"How much more Mana in my body can I handle currently?" Theo asked.
Rya replied, ["Currently, Master's body is very strong, as strong as someone in the Peak Venerable Realm. This happened mainly because of the cells of the lineage: Holy Divine Golden Fox. However, it is not enough. If Master wants to go straight to Saint Realm, it is necessary to be much stronger than that, as he will go through two Divine Celestial Tribulations at the same time."]
Theo became thoughtful. Rya had practically read his mind. Since he had that thought, he decided to go straight to Saint Realm.
However, knowing that he would have to go through two Divine Celestial Tribulations at the same time was worrying. He didn't know if with his current situation he would be able to use [Devour] in time.
"Okay, I will try this!" Theo felt motivated.
After thinking, he decided. "I'll try lightning and earth first..."
Not wanting to disturb Isis, he strengthened the illusions.
In his left hand, lightning crackled. In his right hand, the earth ran forth from his hand like sand. The most practical way he could come up with at that moment was to try to merge the two elements little by little.
Theo's hands came closer together and crackling sounds deepened. These lightning bolts and earth weren't natural; they were made of pure energy, which made them somehow deny each other.
Theo didn't expect to succeed right then, but he kept trying. Sometimes the lightning just served to be like a blanket around the earth, or the earth left gaps for the lightning to pass through, or even the lightning scorched the earth. But if Theo made the earth too strong, the lightning would be swallowed up by the earth and be gone.
Time went by very fast: in the blink of an eye one whole day passed. Theo had some success, but it still wasn't what he wanted. In his hand was something similar to Rasengan from the anime, Naruto, only it gave off a golden color with neon brown. However, this was insufficient; it was still not the result he wanted. The fusion of the two elements was not a success.
'Doing the two separately initially doesn't seem right. I need to make the two mix from the start.' Theo came to that conclusion.
More time passed. After nearly two hours, Theo began to see results. In his hand, the earth turned into fragments of crystals. Although he wasn't able to create a new element, he smiled, knowing he was on the right path.
Theo only stopped because his smartphone vibrated. It was a message from Yuki: [When you can, bring us to the [Dimensional Room]. It's already night, and we'll stay outside until daylight.]
Seeing this message, Theo smiled and then used: [Clean] on his body. Changing clothes, wearing a black outfit with a V-neck t-shirt and sweatpants, he brought the girls to the [Dimensional Room].
The moment they appeared, Ariana clung tightly to Theo's neck and rubbed her cheek against his lovingly. She could feel his body temperature rising. It was so hot she could get scalded any second.
For them it was just a few hours; for Theo it had been 6 days. Even though he had suppressed his desires, he was already used to having sex with his women at least once a day.
Sure, Little Yui and Little Emma, just like Alice and Aomi, were there. He wouldn't get carried away and do indecent things in front of them.
"We brought food." Shina said. The food, however, wasn't in her hand, but in her storage ring.

Periodically, the girls came and went into the [Dimensional Room]. They went when it became day and came back in the evening. This continued for several days.
Now that Yuki had been pregnant for eight months, Theo was pacing back and forth inside the [Dimensional Room] in an anxious state. The possibility of her being due around nine months was common for human women and although Yuki was actually a fox, he wasn't sure what it would be like with her. Also, Yuki's belly had grown a lot. It was likely twins or even triplets.
Of course, if Theo had wanted to, he could know, but he avoided trying to find out how many children they would have in their first pregnancy, and he wanted it to be a surprise. But the reason he was so anxious and nervous today wasn't because of Yuki... But rather, it was because of Zaira and Zaika.
"Is it true, both of them are pregnant?" Grasping Ariana by the shoulders as she walked out of the living room of a bedroom, he asked hurriedly.
"Yes it's true." Ariana smiled a little enviously. She has been trying a lot in the last few months, but she still hadn't managed to get pregnant.
Even though he had already felt the presence of something growing in Zaira and Zaika's belly before, only now it felt real. Theo was so happy, he couldn't contain his smile.
'But how? Unlike Yuki, they're both wolves, and I'm a fox...' Theo let his mind run wild and couldn't help but wonder what his children would be like with the two wolf girls.
Not that it mattered. As long as they were his children, he'd be super happy. In fact, when he thought about having a house full of kids, a silly smile was plastered on his face.
"Theo, what are you thinking?" Ariana nudged his waistband upon seeing the goofy smile he wore.
"Well, I was considering it would be nice to have a football team..." Theo blurted out as he daydreamed.
"Oh? It's possible. We'll soon have a child too, so maybe one day we can make that dream come true," Ariana said with a smirk.
"Not now, let's do it later." Theo wasn't one to deny her ambition, though he was still thinking about Zaira and Zaika who were pregnant, so he wasn't in the mood to have sex right now.
*Tsk* Ariana clicked her tongue, disappointed, but she soon smiled. "Alright now, you can come in. Zaira and Zaika have finished testing."
"Okay." Theo nodded hurriedly and entered the room.
In the bedroom, sitting on the bed, Zaira and Zaika had a smile as happy as Theo's. Shina and the girls were present and were also happy. It turns out that soon their family would grow.
"Theo!" Zaika and Zaira, with tears in their eyes, jumped towards Theo and hugged him.
Being a mother to Theo's children has made them so happy that they became fools from joy.
