Dissolve
Once you’ve mastered the transformation of your Qi, you’ll have the ability to take the next step. Dissolving your Qi. up till now your Qi has functioned like a gas, freeform and floating, but once you’ve grasped transforming your Qi, you’ll have a new option.
Condensing your qi into a true liquid. You will need to properly comprehend every step up to this point in order to properly perform this technique.
Slowly put pressure on your internal Qi. not enough for it to explode, but just enough for it to transition from a gas to a liquid. This will be easier for some than it will for others, but it won’t be impossible.
Once you’ve completed this transition and all of the internal Qi you have has been converted to a liquid, you will carefully drip this liquid Qi into your dantians. You will want to fill it to capacity, then deliberately overload it causing your dantians to pop.
This may seem like a negative, but by doing it correctly, you will result in what is called an “internal sea”
This internal sea will take the pce of a dantian, with generating and containing internal Qi, but unlike before, it will have much more space to contain your Qi, and will produce exclusively liquid Qi.
By doing this, your output strength and amount will vastly increase.
This marks the end of the absorption minor stage of the body tempering stage, after which you will need to begin refining your body.
Bone strengthening, blood refining, and flesh tempering
The next three phases are very simir in method, so I will expin all of them together. You will need to individually push the liquid Qi throughout your body with your meridians, and carefully bathe each bone, each major vein and each muscle to finish your body tempering phase. This can take years to complete, with 206 bones, three major veins and 650 muscles, it can take quite a while.
The three major veins are the superior vena cava, the inferior vena cava, and the pulmonary veins.
This process can be sped up a few ways. Herbal baths, a near perfect foundation, or being forcefully assisted by the Qi of someone else, though that st method isn’t perfect.
After this, you will encounter the first rge difficulty jump for your tributions. The lightning will be much stronger than before. Upon completing this stage, you will ascend to the golden core stage.
Golden core
During this tribution, you will direct the divine lightning throughout your newly tempered body, empowering your Qi into divine Qi. at this point, your Qi will easily overwhelm any lower cultivation stage. Conduct the Qi through each meridian carefully, and slowly but surely you’ll begin to feel an itchy sensation.
Don’t fight this, what you’re feeling is the divine energy forcing impurities out of your meridians. Once you feel this, prior warning, you’re about to throw up. That’s normal, don’t worry about it. Your body is simply expelling any remaining impurities that were left behind after the previous phases.
Once your body is perfectly clear of impurities, you’ll have to take one more step. Slowly supercondense the liquid internal Qi into a solid. Depending on multiple factors, including, but not limited to, the structural integrity of your foundation, the purity of your Qi, and how well you executed the elimination of all impurities, there can be multiple results.
Within the Golden core phase, there are five minor stages.
Golden infant core
Golden intermediate core
Golden material core
Golden imperial core
Golden divine core
Depending on the previously mentioned factors, you may skip minor stages to begin your golden core cultivation at a higher minor stage.
Within the golden core phase, there are also five major stages.
Core forming
Core purifying
Core refinement
Core peak
Core fusion
The core forming stage includes all the information given up till now. Once your core is formed, you will need to begin purifying it. This will just be repeatedly washing your core in Qi that is high in Yin energies.
This can be done in a few ways. Yin energy can be found naturally, but also can be acquired directly from a cultivator who specializes in Yin aspected Qi.
Purifying your core, will slowly move it up in purity more and more passing through the previously mentioned minor stages. Once you’ve reached the Golden divine core, you will be able to proceed to the next major stage.
Core refinement is a painful but necessary part of the golden core stage. Once your core is pure, you will need to slowly “carve” the core into the truest form of your soul. This is not something that I can expin, as it is completely unique to every person, and it is precisely because of this that most cultivators journey ends at this stage.
As there isn’t much more I can say to expin it, I’ll end the core refinement expnation here.
The next stage is core peak. This will be in two minor stages.
Half-step peak
The peak of golden core.
To reach the half step stage, You will need to confront an internal heart demon. It will usually take the form of your fears and insecurities, but sometimes it will take upon your form if it determines that that’s what will throw you off enough to win.
Upon winning, you’ll attain the half step minor stage. The next stage will be a little less concrete. You will need to establish a personal Dao. Unlike confronting the internal heart demon, this will always result in you facing a reflection of yourself. It won’t be a fight however. It will differ from person to person, but they will always test you in some form or another to determine the strength of your will.
Once you’ve effectively surpassed your weaknesses and fears, and fully understand who you are and what you want, your understanding of the truest form of your soul will reach an entirely new level. This will allow you to begin the core fusion stage, where you will shatter your core, dispersing and fusing it with your soul. Once again, this is not something that can be put into words, but the best I can say is that once you have completed the peak of the golden core stage, it will make perfect sense to you.
