He quickly calculated in his mind: if this speed continued, wouldn't Fang Han's one hour of use be equivalent to the flower growing naturally for five or six years?

If Fang Han were to work tirelessly, spending all twelve hours performing the Harmony of Qin and Se Technique on this Yin-Yang Flower, wouldn't the flower be able to bear fruit in just one day, and the fruit be fully ripe the next day?

Thinking of this, Xiang Wantang's heart suddenly raced, and an indescribable excitement and anticipation welled up inside her.

...

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and Fang Han was completely immersed in accelerating the ripening of the Yin-Yang Flower.

He moved with incredible agility, sometimes displaying a wondrous harmony of the zither and lute, the mysterious rhythms seemingly resonating with heaven and earth, causing the surrounding spiritual energy to surge wildly; at other times, he unleashed strange talismanic arts, runes darting into the Yin-Yang Flower like serpents.

Through his tireless efforts, the originally beautiful Yin-Yang flower underwent a miraculous transformation and successfully ripened into Yin-Yang fruit.

This Yin-Yang Fruit has a peculiar appearance; it is round and about the size of an adult's fist.

One half of it is a vibrant, luscious red, like a burning flame, radiating a fiery aura; the other half is a deep, cold black, like an endless night, exuding a chill.

The two distinct colors blend together, forming strange halos on the surface of the Yin-Yang Fruit, making it look exceptionally magical.

Even more astonishing is that the Yin-Yang Fruit contains energy that is beyond imagination. The dense spiritual energy is like a tangible mist, swirling and surging around it, radiating a heart-palpitating pressure.

Xiang Wantang stood to the side, her eyes fixed on the Yin-Yang Fruit, her gaze filled with longing.

This Yin-Yang Fruit is undoubtedly the key to his breakthrough. As long as he consumes it, he may be able to glimpse the mysteries of the Spirit Embryo Realm.

However, he also knew in his heart that Fang Han had spent two whole days ripening the Yin-Yang Fruit with unfathomable magic, and he was too embarrassed to reach out and pick it rashly.

Just as Xiang Wantang was filled with inner turmoil, Fang Han did not hesitate at all. He raised his hand and gently plucked the precious Yin-Yang Fruit, holding it in his hand.

Then, he smiled slightly, revealing a sincere smile, and with a flick of his wrist, he threw the Yin-Yang Fruit directly towards Xiang Wantang, saying, "Old Xiang, this is for you first. I'll ripen another one in the next couple of days and take it with me. From now on, we'll each have half of this Yin-Yang Fruit."

At this moment, Fang Han's way of addressing Xiang Wantang had subtly changed. He was no longer the slightly respectful "Sect Master Xiang" at the beginning, but the affectionate "Old Xiang," as if the two had become brothers who had known each other for many years and friends despite their age difference.

If it were any other young person who dared to address her so casually, Xiang Wantang would probably unleash the powerful aura of a peak Yuan Dan realm cultivator instantly and ruthlessly kill them.

But at this moment, facing Fang Han, he felt no displeasure whatsoever; instead, a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

He reached out and caught the Yin-Yang Fruit steadily, a hearty smile spreading across his face. He laughed loudly, "Haha, Brother Fang, you've worked hard for two days, but I got to enjoy the first Yin-Yang Fruit. I'll remember this kindness. If you don't mind, you can call me 'Brother' from now on."

Xiang Wantang sincerely felt that Fang Han, despite his young age, possessed such a broad vision, which was truly admirable.

Upon hearing this, Fang Han remained calm and said sincerely, "Brother, you're eager to break through to the Spirit Embryo Realm with the Yin-Yang Fruit, while I'm still at the Foundation Establishment Realm, so I'm not in a hurry."

He paused, then continued, "Furthermore, I advise you not to rush your breakthrough. Your physical body is not yet at its perfect level, and your foundation is not stable when you first start cultivating. I suggest you spend a few months making up for these deficiencies so that you can make great progress in the future."

Upon hearing these words, Xiang Wantang was struck dumb, standing frozen in place.

In the Dragon Abyss Sword Sect, the Foundation Establishment Realm has a very low status; one is merely an inner disciple.

On ordinary days, the inner disciples move around the sect, busy with cultivation and completing sect tasks.

If an ordinary inner disciple of the Dragon Abyss Sword Sect were to arrogantly claim that Xiang Wantang's foundation was unstable and her physical body was not strong enough, it would be nothing short of a fantasy, and would surely draw laughter from everyone, who would see him as ignorant and arrogant.

However, Fang Han was no ordinary person. Although he was only at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, he possessed astonishing strength.

Previously, he had actually managed to break through Xiang Wantang's meticulously crafted Life-Giving Formation with such a low cultivation level.

That formation was set up by Xiang Wantang with a lot of effort and precious materials. It contains an extremely complex spiritual power operation mechanism and defensive measures, which are difficult for ordinary Yuan Dan realm experts to break easily.

But Fang Han did it. At that moment, Xiang Wantang realized that Fang Han was not just someone with exceptional talent.

He knew that Fang Han must be hiding a shocking secret, and it was very likely that he had obtained the true inheritance of the Great Dao, which was why he possessed such extraordinary abilities.

For this reason, Xiang Wantang took Fang Han's words very seriously, knowing that he was not talking nonsense.

At this moment, his heart was like a calm lake to which a boulder had been thrown, causing ripples to spread.

Fang Han's words were like the resounding tolling of a bell, echoing in his ears, deafening and prompting him to fall into deep thought.

He never expected that Fang Han, who was so young, could see through the shortcomings in his cultivation at a glance.

He himself had vaguely sensed these problems, but he had never pointed them out as clearly as Fang Han.

In an instant, Xiang Wantang's admiration for Fang Han grew even stronger, and she secretly thought that Fang Han was bound to have a bright future.
