Being a Late Bloomer in the Cultivation World

Chapter 2: The Body Refining Realm

A reader asked about the Body Refining Realms, so I’m posting a special Chapter to explain them.

Body Refining Realms:

The lower Realms are simply divided into Tier One, Tier Two, Tier Three, and so on.

Upon reaching Tier Four, one can condense the First Spirit Bone.

Early-Stage Tier Four: Condensing the Spirit Bone.

Middle-Stage Tier Four: Spirit Body Bone Seal.

Late-Stage Tier Four: Initial Appearance of the Spirit Body. (Allows for some use of Spirit Body Power.)

Tier Five (Divinity Transformation Realm): Gathering Spirit Body (Early-Stage Tier Five), drawing upon Sun Power to condense a Yang Soul (Middle-Stage Tier Five), and drawing upon lunar power to condense a Yin Soul (Late-Stage Tier Five). When the Yang Soul and Yin Soul merge, one can form the Water and Fire Immortal Robe and advance to Tier Six Body Refining.

Tier Six (Void Refining Realm): Condense True Spirit Power, causing the First Spirit Bone to transform into a True Spirit Immortal Bone. An Innate Treasure Talisman is born within the Immortal Bone, granting the user Divine Power. (Innate Treasure Talismans can be obtained by plundering True Spirit Descendants. The Essence Blood of a True Spirit acts as the Spirit Guide for breaking through to Tier Six Body Refining.)...

Tier Seven (Integration Realm): ...

Tier Eight (Mahayana Realm): ...

Tier Nine (Tribulation Crossing Realm): ...

If I write out all the later Realms, no one will be able to remember them. So, I’ll stop here for now.
