Kuro would have walked for quite a while, after sleeping for a day his System upgraded itself forcefully. From its 75% to 100% without him doing much, he then asked the system if by any chance he could create a body for it so it could help him outside of his own mind. 'You can but only after you've reached the peak of the Celestial Upper realm.' He smiled as he continued to walk, Zuel would be scanning the area destroying nearby Stage 1 monsters, but he would still not level up. Stage monsters only gave a measly 10k exp. These exps went to his upgrade since the system changed a few things, he swiped his hand in the air and his status screen appeared.

=======================
[Summoned Monster: Zuel[Demon Elf]
Stage 3

=======================
After he noticed his skills have been evolved he let a small smile cross his face as he soon realised that he was pretty strong. He had alot of money on hand and he needed pills, but because they system was upgraded to buy pills he would need to use Exp. But now that he had to use 1 million to level up to Stage 5 he decided not to.
He sat down on a rock while Zuel ran around killing Stage 1 monsters and Stage 2 on his own, he was also trying to improve his Swordsminship even though his skills were maxed.
Kuro saw many rare herbs and realised it was a place with a thick air of Ki. He sat down with his legs crossed as he absorbed the ki into his body to strengthen his body. His aura expanded before it dissolved, he smiled as his skill leveled up. His body was now at the 8 Stage. He looked around and saw that it was already Noon. Zuel was watching Kuro patiently until he opened his eye's.
Next to Zuel were herbs, animal essence, and body parts that can be used to create armor. He sensed that Zuel's stage was now at the fourth mortal realm which surprised him. He pet Zuels head since he was like his dog? He didn't know but he still petted him while smiling.
Afterwards Kuro fell asleep after placing everything in his storage. After he woke up he began to create Grade 6 and 7 pills using multiple ingredients aswell as fusing pills and using his own Ki to create stronger one's. These pills at the moment could give 600k for the Grade 6 while Grade 7 gave 7000k exp. There was a clear difference between Grade 6 and 7 because Grade 7 was infused with his own ki. He ate it and it upgraded most of his skills which were now at Stage 9 close to max level.
He handed the Grade 6 to Zuel who immediately ate it and broke through Stage 5. He was surprised how could Zuel actually break though? But he didn't questain it since he had a cheat system so why couldn't his own summoned monsters also have crazy potential.
As soon as he sensed a stage 5 monster the system warned him that fighting one would have a 50% of Zuel or him getting injured.
Kuro smirked"Don't worry...I need to try out my skills...and also i could get a massive amount of exp from this monster!" As soon as they arrived he saw 4 stage 4 monsters and 1 stage 5 monster he smiled. He then created 2 strengthening pills Grade 8 which doubled their strength, he fed one to Zuel. As both of them were now even stronger, Kuro took out [Silver] a silver-ish aura surrounded his sword causing nearby plants to flourish."9 DARK DRAGIN FIRE SLASHES" he yelled as 9 slashes then appeared each one attacking the stage 5 monster, which each slash getting stronger and faster then the one before.
After the monster died it left its useful parts and Exp which he used to finnaly take away most of his exo needed to level up.
After a few days of doing this and Zuel atacking stage 4 monsters he checked his status

Kuro was hapoy with his and Zuels rusults, after another month of traveling he was now 6 years old. Both Zuel and him were now at Stage 8 of the mortal Realm since most monsters didn't attack them anymore.
But, they finnaly reached a new Kingdom. This Kingdom was called Sun. While the other kingdom was called Moonlight. He stood ontop of a hill as he viewed over how the kingdom expanded, he sighed as Zuel then begab jumping down tree to tree, he flew downwards not wanting to waste his time.
Before they could arrive a stage 6 Monster appeared
'Shit...'
Kuro used all his power and tried to attack it but he didn't even leave a scratch, instead the monster threw him away with a powerful swing, he layed down near the tree he grabbed his chest trying to press his clouthes above the wound to stop the blood from flowing out. 'System...is their a regeneration skill?' 'Affirmitive Activating Self- Healing wait time 10 seconds' A golden aura surrounded him causing his wounds to slowly heal he coughed a bit.
