[CRITICAL SYSTEM ALERT: SYNCHRONIZATION DELAY DETECTED]

[MASSIVE YIN ESSENCE SURGE DETECTED]

[Host’s rapid, successive engagement with multiple high-level targets over the past 24 hours has caused a queue overload.]

[Processing backlog of accumulated Yin Essence and Passive Siphoning...]

Gu Fan raised an eyebrow and sat up slightly because he had been actively wondering why his massive, intense dual cultivation session with Su Mei hadn’t yielded immediate results, but it seemed the System had simply been overwhelmed by the sheer volume of energy he had aggressively plundered while running around crashing parties.

[COMPILING DAILY PARASITIC YIELD]

[Host Xiao Mei: +12 Vitality Units (Negligible).]

[Host Gu Ling: +1,500 Yin Units (Target currently experiencing severe Qi deviation & extreme arousal; passive siphoning highly effective).]

[Base Application: 10x Multiplier.]

"Not a bad passive income to wake up to," Gu Fan chuckled, crossing his arms over his chest since his personal harem was functioning perfectly as a remote cultivation farm, but the System wasn’t even close to being done as the blue screen flickered aggressively to deliver the real payload.

[COMPILING ACTIVE YIN-YANG PLUNDER YIELD]

[Host Madam Li: +17,000 Yin Essence Units (Target completely devoted and cultivating actively).]

[Host Bai Bing: +9,000 Yin Essence Units (Target recovering from Origin Realm breakthrough attempts and actively thinking of Host).]

[Host Su Mei: +21,000 Yin Essence Units (Target completely devoted and cultivating constantly thinking of Host).]

[Base Application: 20x Multiplier.]

[TOTAL ACCUMULATED YIN ESSENCE FROM MULTIPLIERS]

[955,000 YIN ESSENCE UNITS.]

Gu Fan’s eyes snapped wide open as his confident smirk instantly vanished, completely replaced by a sudden flash of genuine, cold panic because this sheer amount of pure, heavily multiplied Origin Realm Yin Essence was an absolutely catastrophic amount of raw energy for a mere 7th Stage Body Tempering cultivator to absorb all at once.

"Wait, System, don’t dump it all at once..." Gu Fan tried to stop the system, but he couldn’t even finish the frantic sentence before the massive, incomprehensible payload was aggressively injected directly into his core.

"Eggghh!" Before Gu Fan could even brace his body for the impact, the astronomical volume of pure, concentrated Yin Essence violently rushed through his meridians like a runaway freight train.

The pain was so much that Gu Fan immediately collapsed off the plush bed and crashed heavily onto the polished jade floor, screaming loudly into a silk pillow he frantically grabbed.

His muscles literally began to tear apart under his skin, ripping as the massive influx of Yin Essence forced a highly destructive physical reconstruction, tearing and knitting the shredded muscles and meridians back together almost instantly with denser, darker, and vastly more powerful tissue that pulsed with raw, terrifying strength.

"Fuck! Fuck!" Gu Fan cursed repeatedly into the pillow as his spine forcefully arched backward, loudly cracking as his bones were violently broken down and rebuilt to handle the extreme density.

Even the Purple Nether-Ghost Fire flared wildly inside his chest to rapidly burn away the impurities blocking his advancement.

In no time, thick and incredibly foul-smelling black sludge violently purged from his pores, completely coating his skin in a dark, toxic sweat.

His body aggressively expelled every single remaining weakness from his skeleton because the raw essence was refusing to settle until his physical body was absolutely perfect.

The agonizing pressure inside his dantian violently slammed against the barrier of the 7th Stage Body Tempering Realm and instantly shattered it into a million pieces, effortlessly pushing him into the 8th Stage as the massive backlog of energy continued to ruthlessly surge through his veins without slowing down even slightly.

Gu Fan coughed up a mouthful of ink black toxic blood as the momentum carried him relentlessly forward, violently expanding his meridians and solidifying his bones.

Soon his dantian was filled to the brim again and the energy finally smashed right through the next barrier, pushing him straight into the 9th Stage and hitting the absolute peak of Body Tempering Cultivation in a matter of agonizing minutes.

The violently destructive process finally subsided after what felt like hours but barely only ten minutes had passed, leaving Gu Fan sprawled helplessly on the cold jade floor while he panted heavily and gasped for air.

Exhausted, Gu Fan lay there in the puddle of his own expelled toxins, he could feel the absolutely terrifying, monstrous physical power currently coursing through his newly forged muscles, knowing he could easily rip a mid-level Spirit Realm cultivator entirely in half with just his bare hands without even needing to equip his Knuckle Busters.

[DING!]

[Host: Gu Fan (Li Wei)]

[Base Cultivation: 9th Stage of the Body Tempering Realm.]

[Effective Strength: 3rd Stage of Spirit Realm.]

Visible hot steam rose from his incredibly toned, hardened physique as his body cooled down from the violent ascension, and he was completely drenched in a disgusting mixture of dark sweat and foul-smelling sludge that made him look like a savage beast that had just crawled out of a swamp.

Just as Gu Fan finally caught his breath and pushed himself up onto his hands and knees, the heavy wooden doors to his private quarters loudly unlocked and swung wide open.

Madam Li walked into the room wearing a lavish, highly formal red dress, with her beautiful face looking incredibly stressed and tired from dealing with the Clan matters. But she stopped dead in her tracks the absolute second she entered the room.

She had spent the entire morning screaming at the clan elders and trying to suppress the rumours about the Clan’s Genius’s deranged, incestuous actions, so she had come to Gu Fan’s room to seek comfort from her dear husband.

But her stressed expression instantly shifted into profound confusion as she looked down at Gu Fan.

She took in the completely absurd sight of him entirely half-naked, panting heavily on his hands and knees, and completely covered in foul, steaming black liquid on her expensive jade floor while the entire room reeked strongly of purged, bitter toxins.

She slowly raised a perfectly groomed, elegant eyebrow, staring down at his heaving, glistening chest before she crossed her arms tightly under her massive breasts, looking completely bewildered by whatever the hell her stepson was doing on the floor.

"Why are you all sweaty?" she asked bluntly.
