...Inside the Infinity Dragon Palace....
Within the quiet confines of the cultivation room in the Infinity Dragon Palace, a person sits cross-legged on a soft mat, deeply immersed in their thoughts.
"System, I can't help but wonder why my combat power feels so high," they ask, seeking clarity.
[Ding! Host, this is largely attributed to your unique bloodline.]
"Ding! It's important to remember that this is while your bloodline remains sealed."
"Are you suggesting that once my bloodline is fully unsealed, my potential will be even greater?" they inquire, a flicker of hope igniting within.
[Ding! Yes, Host.]
Curious, they continue, "System, what exactly are the cultivation stages?"
[Ding! Host, there are 12 cultivation stages you should be aware of.
12 Stages of Mortal Realm:
• Body Tempering
• Qi Refinement
• Foundation Establishment
• Core Formation
• True Core
• Nascent Soul
• Dao Perception
• Law Manifestation
• Domain Awakening
• Celestial Ascension
• Heaven's Judgment
• Immortal Awakening ]
"Can you tell me more about these stages?" they ask, their desire to understand growing stronger.
[Ding! Unfortunately, Host, I can't share that information right now. You must reach the Immortal Awakening stage first.]
"All right, System. I want to learn the cultivation act," they reply, determination in their voice.
[Ding! Starting the process.]
In an instant, a wealth of knowledge about the Infinity Cultivation Art floods into their mind.
[Ding! Host has learned the Infinity Cultivation Art.]
After a few quiet moments, they emerge from their state of Enlightenment, feeling more grounded.
"Okay, let's begin," they say, calming themselves as they focus on using the Infinity Cultivation Art.
To their amazement, primordial infinity Qi starts swirling around them, gradually flowing towards their body.
Inside their Dantian, a core embryo begins to spin, absorbing the primordial infinity Qi and promoting their body's tempering process. Within half an hour, they reach the early body tempering stage.
After two hours, they progress to the medium body tempering stage, feeling a growing sense of resilience.
And, after four hours, they break through to the peak body tempering stage, satisfaction washing over them.
"System, what exactly is this core embryo inside my Dantian?" they ask, curiosity piquing once more.
[Ding! The core embryo inside your Dantian is known as the Infinity Verse Core Embryo. It will eventually evolve into an Infinity Verse Core.]
[Ding! Every Infinity Dragon possesses a core like yours; an Infinity Verse Core for you, a Semi-Infinity Core for the sub-progenitors, and an Omniverse Level Core for the Primordials, among others.]
"How much time has passed?" they inquire, feeling the weight of their circumstances pressing on them.
[Ding! Host, six and a half hours have elapsed.]
"And outside?" they ask, concern lingering in their heart.
[Ding! Host, four days have passed since you were thrown into the Shadowfang Woods.]
As worry washes over them, thoughts of their mother and sister resonate deeply within. "I must grow stronger to rescue my mother and sister," they resolve.
[Ding! Host, I have the ability to alter the time flow in the Infinity Dragon Realm.]
"You can do that?"
[Yes, Host. I can change the time flow from one day outside to five days inside.]
[Ding! Host, would you like me to change the time flow?]
"Yes..." they reply, determination firming their voice.
[Ding! Changing the time flow from one day to five days.]
[Ding! Time flow successfully adjusted.]
[Ding! I also recommend beginning training in combat arts to further stabilize your foundation.]
"System, what is the Infinity Library?" they ask, hopeful to explore further.
[Ding! The Infinity Library is a vast collection of cultivation arts, combat arts, and other knowledge ranging from the common to the profound.]
"What are the stages for these arts?" they want to know.
[Ding! Here are the cultivation and combat art stages:
**Basic Levels**
1. Mortal Art
2. Spirit Art
3. Profound Art
4. Earth Art
---
**Intermediate Levels**
5. Heaven Art
6. Saint Art
7. Divine Art

**Advanced Levels**
8. Immortal Art
9. Celestial Art
10. Primordial Art

**Mythical Levels**
11. Eternal Art
12. Origin Art
13. Infinity Art]
"Does that mean I have access to the top-tier cultivation art?" they ask, wonder shining in their eyes.
[Yes, Host. You stand alone in all existence at this level.]
"Can I share this art? I think about my mother, sister, and Isabella," they say, their heart aching with concern for their loved ones.
[Ding! You can share this art, but only the Sub-Infinity Art due to their Semi-Infinity Verse Core.]
With renewed purpose, they return to their cultivation, determined to grow stronger.
...A few days later.....
Azeris has reached the Qi Refinement peak stage and mastered the first level of Infinity Sword Art, establishing a basic sword intent.
"System, please show me my status," Azeris requests.
A status window appears before their eyes, revealing:

After reviewing his status, he felt a wave of relief wash over him; his combat level had reached the peak of Core Formation. In contrast, the Blackthrone Family Head remained at the early stage of Core Formation.
With renewed hope, he realized that he now had the strength to save his mother, sister, and Isabella—people he deeply cared for.
He paused for a moment, his heart heavy with concern. "System, how much time has passed outside?"
[Ding! Host, five days have passed outside.]
