10 years
After finishing with Esdeath, I headed towards Ah Yin, who was in an area near the Spirit Forest, as it was the best place for her and she wouldn't feel lonely there.
Her growth is going very well. The years it would take for her to reach this level of progress have been greatly reduced, as she absorbs life force every day. The system even told me that when she can transform, she will become much stronger than before.
Usually, soul beasts lose their cultivation when they transform, but that won't be the case for Ah Yin. When she finally transforms into a human, her strength will be at least at the Nascent Soul stage.
But it's still too early to think about it, as it will take a few more years for this to happen. In the meantime, the plant spirits in this place always take care of her and talk to her from time to time.
Another person who is in a state of practice is Cai Die. After giving her the blood essence of a seven-colored Devouring Python, she locked herself in her room to absorb it. Eventually, an egg formed around her, and according to the system, it will take almost a year for her to hatch.
So I created a barrier around her while adding some others that would make it easier for her to absorb the energy of the heavens and the earth.
Seeing that everything was going well, I decided to go to the practice hall to fight again and become stronger. As the sect master, I can't afford to fall too far behind in terms of strength, especially since there are already many people who are stronger than me, and I can't accept that.
...
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
...Divine Elephant Seed awakens!
...Divine Elephant Seed awakens!
...Divine Elephant Seed awakens!
...Divine Elephant Seed awakens!
...Divine Elephant Seed awakens!
A powerful surge of energy circulated around me, expanding within my being with every breath I took. Its intensity gradually increased until its density was so palpable that it seemed to envelop me completely.
Suddenly, an image appeared before my eyes. It was a majestic figure with the head of a dragon and the body of a phoenix, complete with wings and a long, flowing tail. Its body was covered in colorful feathers and scales, and it had piercing eyes that seemed to see right through me.
Its roar resonated in my mind, and I felt a profound connection with this creature. I knew that this was the moment when my constitution had finally awakened.
The ground trembled beneath my feet as the energy continued to rise relentlessly, until suddenly there was a small click, followed by a mighty roar that echoed throughout the sect. Many people turned their gaze towards where I was, especially the girls, who were watching as I made my way forward.
After a few minutes, I finally finished breaking through. I must say, it's becoming more difficult each time, as the energy I need to do so is immense.

It has been a few years since I last checked my status, but I must say that even though the changes may not be very noticeable, my increase in strength is tremendous. Training is the only thing I have focused on so far.
I calmly got up from the awakening water I was in and slowly left the place. Outside, I could see some girls, including Yuroichi, Esdeath, Cai Die, Zifeng, and Yu Mei. The latter is also a phoenix with complete attributes, just like the patriarch of her clan.
"Young master, are you alright?" Qin Ling asked with concern.
"Don't worry, there haven't been any problems. In fact, I have fully awakened my lineage," I happily commented.
"It seems that your lineage has a strong connection with our family," Zi Feng happily remarked.
"It's something like that," I calmly replied.
While I was talking with the girls, a cute voice was heard approaching rapidly, "Brother Feng!"
"Little Milim, be careful when running, or you might get hurt," I commented while catching this adorable girl with pink hair and pigtails. Behind her, Veldanaba followed, looking tired.
This girl was born a few years ago, and everyone has grown fond of her. It's worth mentioning that her mother is always scolding her for her mischievousness, but she never seems to run out of energy. Despite her small size, she shouldn't be underestimated, as she possesses great strength.
Speaking of the others, my relationship with each of the important people in this sect has grown significantly. I always try to talk to them or give advice whenever I can.
Not to mention that the strength of each of them has increased a lot. For example, Yuroichi and Esdeath have cultivated to reach level 35 in these years. Their relationship is peculiar, as they are always fighting, but I must say that Esdeath is the one who always starts it.
As for Cai Die, her strength is already at the Middle Soul Tempering level. It took her almost a year to absorb the energy contained in the bottle I gave her, which allowed her to easily break through to the Initial Soul Tempering stage. After a little over a year of training, she advanced again to the Middle stage. This is also due to the improvement in her lineage.
It's worth noting that she has become even more beautiful than before, showing great maturity in many aspects. I still remember being impressed when she emerged from her cultivation state.
Lin Mei and Qing Lin have advanced to the Initial Foundation Building stage, which has shown their great talent over the years. They can easily fight someone with a higher cultivation level, just like the others.
Regarding little Xiao Bai, he is currently in a deep sleep as he cultivates. I have noticed that his strength has increased rapidly, as his level is almost on par with Cai Die, but his cultivation method is so admirable.
Similarly, the same applies to Zi Feng. Some time ago, she introduced me to her disciple, who also has complete affinity. Since then, we have provided her with many resources to greatly enhance her cultivation.
I must say that these years have been filled with great happiness. It may sound cliché or whatever you want to call it, but spending time with them brings me so much joy.
Here's a strange and amusing anecdote: it seems that Esdeath has become obsessed with me. She started seeing me in the same way she would see Tatsumi in the original anime. This led to a little competition among the girls, although I decided not to get involved. However, it did motivate the girls to put more effort into their training.
Especially Yuroichi, who, upon meeting Esdeath for the first time in the sect, engaged in a fierce battle. They were evenly matched as both had a lot of battle experience. After ending in a draw, both became even more obsessed with training, resulting in their cultivation levels improving faster than everyone else's.
As for the other girls, Yin Lan is at level 28, just like Xiao Wu. I must say that both of them are training diligently, but they haven't had an external incentive that would cause an exponential increase in their soul power level.
Lastly, there's Oscar, who is surprisingly at level 29 at only 12 years old. I have to admit that this is because I helped him many times, trying to make up for the two years he lost before I found him.

Note: sorry if these chapters have been a bit more boring, but I'm not in much of a mood, since I haven't done very well at the University, but soon there will be more things.
