Qi Cultivation Realms

Qi Cultivation Realms 101, By Dong Zemin

These are my notes from elder Han's lectures, if you found it useful some spirit stone is appreciated.

- Qi Gathering(9 small realms):

This realm is the start of the cultivation road. In this realm, you will be collecting Qi into your body and in each realm, you gather more Qi in your body. The expected life span in these realms is about 200 years.

These smaller realms consist of:

i. Strengthening (1 small realm)

ii. Flesh (1 small realm)

iii. Bone (1 small realm)

iv. Marrow (1 small realm)

v. Internal Organs (2 small realms)

vi. Nervous System (3 small realms)

- Meridian Formation(12 realms):

In this realm, you would try to open your meridian paths and strengthen them. In each small realm, you have 9 meridians to work with, in the end, you get a meridian formation of a maximum of 81 meridians. The first 9 realms are for opening the meridians and the last 3 are for forming the formation(s). The expected life span in these realms is about 300 years.

- True Qi(9 small realms):

In the Qi Gathering Realm, you would collect the world Qi inside your body; in the True Qi realm, you would purify the Qi in your body and in turn get more power. The expected life span in these realms is about 500 years.

These smaller realms like Qi Gathering realm consist of:

i. Strengthening (1 small realm)

ii. Flesh (1 small realm)

iii. Bone (1 small realm)

iv. Marrow (1 small realm)

v. Internal Organs (2 small realms)

vi. Nervous System (3 small realms)

- Core Formation(12 small realms):

In this realm, you would have to make a core in each of your 12 main meridians. In each small realm, you would be making a new core. The quality(size) of the created core is determined by many things such as talent and quality of one's Qi. The expected life span in these realms is about 800 years.

- Golden Core(5 small realms):

In this realm, you would polish your cores but once you fail you cannot try polishing the same core in the same small realm. In this realm size of cores would shrink considerably so having a bigger core in the Core Formation realm is a plus in this realm. The expected life span in these realms is about 1200 years.

- Sage(9 small realms):

Sage is someone who has an understanding of world rules. In each small realm, you have to infuse one core with your understanding of a rule, this way you change the attribute of the given core from Qi to rule Qi. The expected life span in these realms is about 1600 years.

- Taoist Palace(9 small realms):

In this realm, you would be building a Taoist palace that has nine rivers surrounding it. In each small realm, you have to fill one of the rivers with your understanding of rules, when the minimum requirements are met you can breakthrough to the next small realm. The expected life span in these realms is about 2200 years.

- Dharma Form(9 small realms):

In this realm, your Taoist palace and nine rivers would transform and reforms to yourself in a dharma form. This is the reason why many cultivators won't breakthrough to the next realm in Taoist Palace so that they can fill the rule river more and in the end get a stronger dharma form. In small realms, you would improve your understanding of the rules and blend the rules in your dharma form. The expected life span in these realms is about 3000 years.

- Nirvana(3 small realms):

In this realm, you would reform your body wholly, from flesh to bones and inner organs. If you hear that this realm has 9 realms instead of 3, it is because of the level of hardness in advancements in these realms. The expected life span in these realms is about 4000 years.
