"Now let's start on your quest to being powerful" lyan shouted half-jokingly.
"Hmm....master though Arnt explained about some part of cultivation to me when I was with him, he doesn't tell me about the cultivation stages in the immortal realm, with the excuses that he will tell me when it's time, I want to know about them so I can set my target high "Ryu complained and ask lyan to tell him about the cultivation stages there is.
"Well, what Arnt did is okay but since you insist on that I will tell you but you must not be in too much hurry to get stronger as it may lead to something bad like finding a shortcut to power like those demonic cultivators"lyan explained to Ryu why Arnt doesn't want to tell him before.
Ryu nodded and said "okay master I promise not to get anxious about getting stronger and I definitely won't join the demonic cultivators, but the master who are demonic cultivators and how did they do something bad to get stronger" Ryu promised lyan but also asked about the demonic cultivators as he was quite curious.
"Okay master will believe you, and about the demonic cultivators, there are bad ones and good ones in them but they are mostly bad as most of them use the resentful energy of the dead person to upgrade their cultivation stage so they kill people, helpless people, people without cultivation, they go to the village and kill them there and absorb their resentful energy. some use only their blood which also contain their resentful energy instead of them to kill the beast in the forest they kill human" when lyan was talking he was getting over-reactive and anxious as he explains it can be seen that lyan hate those demonic cultivators and their way of cultivating, Ryu has to calm lyan down.
"Master, calm down you are getting anxious as you speak, it may disperse this your clone as you said that you used your remaining soul qi to condense it" Ryu talked down to his master.
Lyan recover his calmness and said in a deep voice while taking down breaths "Ryu promise me that anytime you see a demonic qi cultivator if you have the power to kill them kill them but if not stay away from them don't be their acquaintance, don't accept them"
"Okay, master I promise but why are you reacting in such a way while I ask about them, why do you hate them so much " Ryu promised and asked why his master hates them so much.
"Ryu I don't want to talk about it, it triggers painful memories, I'm sorry, let me tell you about the cultivation stages"lyan closed his eyes while looking down.
"Okay master, I won't insist, let's talk about the cultivation stages" Ryu nodded in agreement and understanding to his master's words.
"Thanks, Ryu, there are nine stages of cultivation in the both immortal and mortal realms, let me first talk about the mortal stages"lyan looked at Ryu gratefully and started his explanation.
"The mortal cultivation is very important as it lays a solid foundation for the immortal realm stages and it very important, your cultivation day is too fast and not solid, you have to lay a solid foundation to avoid your cultivation foundation being unsteady and shaky, you shouldn't break through anymore after this just solidify your foundation to avoid the risk of your cultivation collapsing "lyan warns Ryu about the risk in his cultivation stage as Ryu cultivation days is too short in cultivation.
"Master, don't mind this old man talking rubbish, since you have awakened the indestructible Primal Body physique, your cultivation foundation can't be shaky no matter how you cultivate, do you think you should only break through to 4th stage Earth realm with that much energy, these are 9 elemental crystal we are talking about and the purest of them as your master take them from the abyss I come from, if it's any other cultivators, at least they would have broken through to spirit realm, so you don't need to consolidate your cultivation stage too much like a normal cultivator, if you have any energy source you can break through indefinitely, except if you want to break through to immortal realm from world forming realm because that doesn't only use energy source qi"little long explained to Ryu about his situation in cultivation.
"Ryu are you listening, what happened to you I was explaining something here and you are being absentminded!?"lyan tapped Ryu when he saw Ryu not concentrating on him.
"Ahh... master sorry I was...I was thinking about what you said and digesting, let continue master"Ryu was startled when someone taps him he was a little disoriented at first but eventually find an excuse for lyan.
"You are a little weird, you are using how many minutes to digest just that simple information,"lyan asked suspiciously, he was suspicious of Ryu but since Ryu doesn't want to talk about it, there is nothing he can do.
"Okay let's continue, the cultivation stages for mortal realms are;
Meridian opening
Qi condensation realm
Man realm
Earth realm
Heaven realm
Spirit realm
Spirit awakening realm
Saint realm, and
World forming realm.
Each of them is divided into 9 grades and 3 sub-stage ;
Low, middle, and peak grades.
Each of them lay a foundation for you in preparation for the immortal realm, each of them is important, but the most important one is the meridian opening realm,
it gives you your meridian level stages as the meridian too are differentiated into different levels, yours should be the best one after awakening your physique as I think it should be quite powerful and one of the best physiques in the universe" lyan explained mortal cultivation stages to Ryu and contemplating about Ryu meridian level.
"At least this odd foggy isn't wrong, this time the indestructible Primal physique is the best, humph"little long said proudly.
Ryu had quite a headache listening to this child-like old dragon but there was nothing he can do except ignore him. he turn to lyan and said"master what are the meridian levels, I'm quite curious about them "Ryu was curious about which level his meridian will be, he thought 'it should be the best among them for sure.
Lyan refrained from contemplating when he heard Ryu's voice"ohh.. okay the meridian is divided into 6 stages that I'm sure of but there is a legend about a 7th being but it should be just some nonsense as I have heard nor seen about that so I think It should just be a legend as it's called. They are;
1st.yellow meridian
2nd.red meridian
3rd.green meridian
4th.blue meridian
5th.pink meridian, and the last one
6th.black meridian.
But the legend seventh meridian as called is,
7th. The all-encompassing meridian.
Legend says this meridian can absorb all elements and energy sources as long as it contains qi, it is even faster in absorbing qi than the black Meridian as a legend but I think it is just nonsense how can something be so heaven-defying" lyan doesn't believe in the legend of the last meridian.
"Yeah, it's so heaven-defying that why you don't know about it 'hmph' but your daddy Universe dragon can make it happen, I'm the only being in this universe that can make that happen, humph, so little Ryu, you must be respectful to your daddy little long...no, universe dragon as you can see your master too is amazed by what I can do, hmm..hmm" the universe dragon little long brag about his awesomeness to ryu.
Ryu's expression looked strange when he heard the dragon bragging, the little dragon look kind of cute when pointing to himself when bragging about his achievement, but he doesn't mind him as he knows this cuteness is just for now as the dragon was just reborn and stills have the attitude of a child now "he doesn't even know you so why would he be amazed by what you can do huh.." Ryu questions the dragon.
"That...that..well..." the dragon was speechless and doesn't know how to reply to Ryu.
Ryu ignores the little dragon and continues to listen to lyan explanation about cultivation.
"The spirit awakening realm is also important as it awakens your spirit soul preparing for the soul awakening realm when you ascend to immortal world, that you will naturally understand when you get there but the second most important after meridian opening realm is the world forming realm when you want to break through to the immortal realm stages as it also have grade, how powerful your qi will be when breaking through depends on the grade of the world you form as the world may instantly generate half immortal essence qi as you break through so you will be almost breaking through to immortal qi condensation or accumulate immortal essence qi over time and the world have many other purpose too like it can be use to store things like storage ring or save but can only store inanimate objects like normal pill but not tribulation pills as it has life and so on like that,when you get there you will know the uses and the world you form may differs from other cultivators as you awakens a special physique and bloodline, as they may influence the world you forms as I have never heard about your physique and bloodline so there may be surprises" lyan explained thoroughly to Ryu.
"And the grade of the world you form is divided by how pure the qi inside your world is and the size of the world. The size of an average cultivator is 200ft and the qi may not be abundant and pure, and for a genius, maybe 2000ft upward as my myself is 20,000ft, your master is a genius himself "lyan explained and prided himself for the world he formed when breaking through to world forming realm in his time.
Little long mocks lyan but Ryu doesn't listen to him as he was quite tired of this little dragon boasting and all, he asked "master what do you think mine would be"asked curiously.
"Well, I can't say about you as I don't know much about your physique and bloodline, so forgive your master for being ignorant "lyan apologized to Ryu.
"It okay master, so continue for the immortal realm cultivation stages," Ryu said to lyan as he will ask little long about that 'little long should know about that' he thought.
"Okay, the immortal world cultivation stages are;
Immortal realm
Immortal qi condensation
Worldly immortal realm
Earthly immortal realm
Heavenly immortal realm
Immortal spirit realm
Soul awakening realm
God's foundation realm, and
God's world realm,
And they are also divided into 9 stages with 3 sub-stage ;
Low, middle, and peak.
The last realm prepares you for the breakthrough to ancient god as I am now. But I won't be telling you about the ancient god realm so do even ask.
Ryu was a little disappointed about that but he instantly understand and said "okay master, let me start consolidating my cultivation, and after that learn some cultivations skills"
"Okay, I will go and prepare some treasures for your cultivation,"lyan said that and he moved to the inner part of the palace.
Ryu nodded and sat down in a lotus positive, he lied earlier as his cultivation didn't need consolidating as said by little long, he wanted to chat with little long to correct some words his master said and learn More about cultivation without being disturbed by his master.
"Little long about earlier you said that the world formed by master is short with 20,000ft, how is that"Ryu asked little long.
"Well, I don't know maybe after the universe law becomes broken cultivation becomes bad and shabby but in the last era I was in, an average cultivator is 100,000ft but genius starts from 1,000000ft, and upward so you see that your master world is quite shabby"little long explained.
"What!? Ryu was dumbfounded, his mouth wide open. if Lyan was here he would be startled by how Ryu exclaimed.
Ryu continues to ask little long questions and little long also patiently answer and sometimes brags like a child.
