While Huo Rong's mind was on something else, she hugged him back and put her head on his shoulder while asking him via the Harem Connect feature of the system.
"Are you alright, Yuan'er? What happened inside the Pagoda?" She asked in a slightly worried voice as Shen Yuan had been inside of the Pagoda for only a few days, it wasn't enough for him to miss them this much.
Shen Yuan didn't respond immediately as he indulged in their fragrance for a bit, his body relaxed completely in their embrace.
"I will explain later, for now, we need to see the reaction of the Radiant Lotus Sacred Sect when their Ancestral Pagoda vanishes."
He gently left their embrace as he glanced towards Xun Shuren standing in the distance, he gave her a slight smile. He could see the suspicion she had towards him but he didn't mind it and waved his hand towards the Pagoda to store it in his dantian.
The Pagoda started shaking slightly, dropping all the dust and leaves it had gathered over hundreds of thousands of years. It started shrinking, making all three ladies on the spot widen their eyes in shock.
Xun Shuren was the most shocked as she couldn't believe that Shen Yuan not only completed the trial but also got the Pagoda itself as a reward. She wanted to stop him but couldn't come up with a valid reason.
Shen Yuan didn't stop even after looking at her hesitation as he exerted his will and the Pagoda started floating above the ground.
He calmly stood as the massive pagoda shrank down in front of his eyes before slowly being absorbed into his dantian. The once majestic pagoda which stood at the outskirts of the sect finally vanished, taking its ancient and heavy aura together with it.
As the final traces of dust and energy settled, the once imposing structure that had stood for countless years was gone, now being refined within Shen Yuan's body.
As the dust settled and Xun Shuren came out of her stupor, she pointed at the location of the tower, "W-what...just happened" she muttered to herself as if she still couldn't believe what had happened here.
Han Qingyu curiously looked at it and asked, "What is this portal?"
Xun Shuren replied this time, becoming more chatty after seeing Shen Yuan's ability, "This is a teleportation portal, all the major sects use this type of portal to move around from one location to another, or else it will take too much time just for traveling."
Han Qingyu nodded in understanding as they soon reached the portal. The guards stepped aside after seeing 2 Inner Elders going through the teleportation portal. Normal disciples had to pay a fee to use it, while it was free for elders.
Shen Yuan and the others stepped through the portal and suddenly felt dizzy, while it was a different case for Shen Yuan as he was exposed to such pure spatial laws for the first time. The space of the Pagoda was much stronger so he couldn't feel the space law as clearly as here.
Shen Yuan didn't miss this opportunity and tried to comprehend the space element. But alas, due to time restrictions, he couldn't even comprehend a little of the space intent before he was teleported to the Radiant Heart Peak.
It was the central peak of the sect where all the Core Disciples, Elders, Grand Elder, and Sect Master stayed. Shen Yuan looked at the majestic peak as it reached well over 15000 km in height alone, he couldn't even imagine how big it was.
"Let's go, we need to take a few more portals before arriving before the Sect Leader and other Peak Elders." Xun Shuren said while continuing to walk towards another portal in the distance.
A lot of cute female disciples stopped what they were doing and stared at Shen Yuan. As it was very rare for a male cultivator to visit this deep inside their sect. But they didn't dare to get close when they saw two inner elders going with him.
Shen Yuan, on the other hand, didn't mind it at all and appreciated the different beauties of the Radiant Lotus Sacred Sect. Some of them blushed when they saw his handsome visage walking further away.
Han Qingyu was also looking around, checking out the sect as she didn't have permission to visit this place just yet.
On the other hand, Huo Rong noticed Shen Yuan looking at other women as she asked to him through Harem Connect, "Are you enjoying looking at all the beauties of our sect?"
