I'm only one year old, what the heck is a Overturning System?!

Chen Yi looked down and transmitted his thoughts: "Are you hungry?"

"The dragon has been growing recently, and the appetite is a bit large..."

"Indeed very large," Chen Yi said grumpily: "All the elixirs that were previously in the Sumeru Bag have been eaten by you."

Xiao Qing chuckled dryly and said, "I couldn't restrain myself for a moment."

"Just endure it for now, once I return to Sword Edge Mountain, I will have Fairy Hua Xianzi prepare some for you."

Chen Yi thought about the elixirs in his Sumeru Bag and felt a bit heartache.

Those were his collections over ten years, all kinds of elixirs totaling up to a hundred and ten bottles.

He had planned to use some of them in the secret realm to boost his cultivation as much as possible, but Xiao Qing had devoured them all.

"The dragon is going to starve to death." Xiao Qing splayed its head down in despair and spoke in a dismal tone.

But its eyes were occasionally scrutinizing Chen Yi's waist, with a hint of saliva at the corners of its mouth.

Brother Yi indeed had no elixirs, but there were other things.

Especially those Immortal Peaches, that fragrance seeping through the Sumeru Bag, it could smell them.

Chen Yi glanced at it and also thought about the Immortal Peaches, Nine Flower Cakes, and Clear Spring Wine he had obtained from Zhao Tianhe before.

"Wanna eat?"

"Uh-huh..." Xiao Qing lifted its head and nodded vigorously.

"Then I'll give you some wine," Chen Yi pondered.

Immortal Peaches, which increase longevity, was too luxurious to feed to Xiao Qing.

After all, Divine Beasts are spiritual and long-lived species, and enhancing its lifespan by a hundred years seemed a waste.

Same goes for the Nine Flower Cakes.

Only the physique-enhancing Clear Spring Wine could help Xiao Qing grow faster.

Chen Yi then took out a jug of wine from the Sumeru Bag, casually poured a bowl, and placed it on the stone table.

"Long live Brother Yi!"

Xiao Qing whistled, falling into the bowl from his wrist.

"Remember to expel the alcohol after drinking; if you get drunk, I might have to taste the flavor of roasted green dragon!"

Chen Yi scared it a bit, then saw Xiao Qing not rushing to finish the wine, but frolicked inside the bowl.

Apparently, it has been stifling itself by hiding its form for too long.

"Whew, whew, oh..."

After flipping around for a while, Xiao Qing finally finished the bowl of Clear Spring Wine, burped out the alcohol.

"Brother Yi, the dragon is going to sleep now."

Then it returned to Chen Yi's wrist and fell into a deep sleep.

Chen Yi watched it fall silent and secretly smiled: A small dragon that never grows up, who knows when it will be fit for the Dragon Taming Saddle.

Talking of Clear Spring Wine, Chen Yi also tested his physical body during the closed-door cultivation.

Originally, his body was already stronger than that of his peers among sword cultivators due to the enhancement from Slaughter Sword Intent.

To put it straightforwardly, he had the strength of ten thousand catties, equivalent to a Seventh-grade Realm Body Cultivation.

After drinking that jug of Clear Spring Wine, his physical strength doubled.

Not only did his strength reach a hundred thousand catties, but even his muscles, bones, and flesh were strengthened.

Purely speaking of his body, he was now comparable to a Sixth Grade Return to Origin Realm Body Cultivation, which was a significant improvement!

Although Sword Cultivators focus mainly on Sword Dao other than their Cultivation Technique, having a stronger body only benefits future combats and has no drawbacks.

And this was one of the reasons he did not emerge from seclusion for three days — to adapt to the current strength of his body, lest he accidentally hurt others due to lack of control.

At this moment, Li Qingzhou appeared suddenly, looked him over, and asked with a smile, "Has your cultivation progressed?"

Chen Yi was slightly surprised inwardly, but nodded without showing it: "Master, the disciple has indeed advanced to the Middle Stage of the Heavenly Union Realm."

"With your talent, such significant progress indicates the Dragon Transformation Pond was quite helpful to you."

Li Qingzhou's gaze intentionally or unintentionally glanced at his wrist, but he didn't delve further, sitting down on the stone chair and said:

"Spirit Aperture Realm is about unlocking the potential of the body, relating to how robust the True Yuan stored within a cultivator is."

"But the Heavenly Union Realm is different; for a Sword Cultivist, this realm more about integrating the majesty of heaven and earth into oneself."

Chen Yi knew he was here to teach some cultivation matters, so he listened attentively.

"By nourishing yourself with the essence of heaven and earth, you condense the Divine Soul Seed, preparing for the growth of your mental and spiritual potential."

"That is, the heaven and earth majesty you integrate or control, when your Divine Soul blooms, it evolves like the seed of divine power."

"At that time, you will be able to truly perceive this world, no longer staying on the superficial mountains and rivers."

Li Qingzhou explained in detail, gradually moving from the Heavenly Union Realm to the Divine Travel Realm's condensation of the Divine Soul, and finally to the Void Extreme Realm.

"Originally, the Void Extreme Realm is not so called, the older generation prefers another name—Refining the Divine and Returning to the Void."

Refining the Divine and Returning to the Void?

Refining Qi to become Divine, Refine the Divine and Return to the Void, Combine with the Dao?

Chen Yi was stirred, although he knew little about the Taoist in his previous life, he had heard of the three stages of Taoist cultivation.

It seems that the six major realms below the Spirit Aperture Realm should all be the "Refining Qi to become Divine."

After that, the Heavenly Union Realm, Divine Travel Realm, and Void Extreme Realm are "Refine the Divine and Return to the Void."

Then afterwards...

"After that, your cultivation will enter a new world."

At this point, Li Qingzhou paused, then cautiously added:

"But considering the current state of the Tianyuan Continent, both cultivation and techniques are hardly supportive for cultivators to further advance."

"That's why so many people regret not qualifying to go to the Taizhou Mountain Battlefield."

"Only there, the cultivation and techniques progress faster!"

Chen Yi contemplated, then nodded thoughtfully; his gaze unconsciously lifted to the night sky, as if there was an invisible chain there.

Because of its existence, it prevented the cultivators of Tianyuan Continent from breaking through their realm limits.
