Deep within the Great Wildlands Forest, underneath a waterfall that stretches on for thousands of meters. Azmond is seen meditating while all the qi within many miles swarm toward him in great amounts.
'Let's try condensing my cultivation base now.'
Azmond thought to himself as he began to try condensing his entire cultivation base down to the beginning of the 1st stage of The Quantum Qi Condensation Realm. After the 3rd attempt, he finally managed to start condensing his cultivation base.
After 2 days of cultivating in Azmond's pain-intensive way, was he finally able to condense his cultivation back down to the beginning of the 1st Stage of The Quantum Qi Condensation Realm, and after another 4 days of cultivating... Azmond managed to get his cultivation base back up to the peak of the 1st Stage.
'Looks like I managed to do it correctly! Time to do it again!'
Azmond thought to himself as his smile grew into an insane one.
He then repeated the process... this time he managed to condense his cultivation base within a day and a half instead of 2 days, and he was able to cultivate back up to the peak of the first stage of Quantum Qi Condensation within 3 and a half days.
'That is the Second Cultivation Base Condensation completed! My power has more than quadrupled since I was at the beginning of the 1st stage of Quantum Qi Condensation with no Condensation cycles done! It seems that instead of the quantity of my cultivation base increasing, It's instead the Quality of my Qi that's increasing with each Realm Condensing cycle. A quality increase that subsequently increases my damage output with the same amount of energy used!'
Azmond thought to himself as he continued to Condense his cultivation base for the 3rd time.
It took Azmond a little under a day to condense his cultivation base back down to the beginning of the 1st stage of Quantum Qi Condensensation for his 3rd Cultivation base Condensing Cycle. Something that made absolutely no sense... Normally it would only get harder for Divine Qi Condensation cultivators to condense their cultivation bases for the second time, and even harder for their 3rd and 4th times, and yet... Azmond's condensing cycles were only getting easier and easier the higher he went. It was almost like he was... adapting? Adapting to something that shouldn't even be possible to adapt to, and yet Azmond was living proof of said adaptation. It was yet another impossible feat that Azmond had accomplished without even knowing it.
Azmond then proceeded to cultivate back up to the peak of the 1st Stage of The Quantum Qi Condensation within 3 days. He condensed his cultivation base back down for the 4th time within 16 hours, and cultivated back up to the peak of the stage within 2 and a half days. He then went on to condense his cultivation base for the 5th time within 12 hours... he cultivated back up to the peak within 2 days.
Azmond also applied his faster way of cultivating by stimulating the qi in the air with his own qi while condensing his cultivation base as well, except he made the qi inside of his very body explode in on itself while condensing to speed up the process. An even more dangerous way of cultivating than when Azmond was just exploding the qi in the air with his own qi. He was constantly bleeding out of all orifices as he was condensing his cultivation base down... The only thing saving him from dying was his insane healing speed.
It had been almost 20 days since Azmond had started to condense his cultivation base down, and the result of those 20 days of painful Cultivating was Azmond's 5th Condensing cycle being completed.
'That makes the 5th time I have gone through Condensing and re-cultivating back up to the peak of the 1st Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation. My power is at least 40 times stronger than it was before!..... But it isn't enough... The most I can fight against is an average person at the Peak of The Early-Golden Core Realm with just my energy alone, and I might be able to fight someone who just entered the Middle-Golden Core Realm if I use my Peak Early-Golden Core Realm Body strength and skills at full capacity as well.'
Azmond thought to himself with a solemn look.
'It is far from enough! The Goblin King is at least at the very peak of the Golden Core Realm if not half a step into the Nascent Soul Realm! Hell, he might even already be in the Nascent Soul Realm...'

'...I just need to cultivate more! I refuse to believe that some bigger Green piggie will stay ahead of me forever!!'
Azmond thought to himself with a crazed smile as his face turned into one of determination.
He continued to condense his cultivation base down for the 6th time and re-cultivate it back up to the peak of the 1st stage of Quantum Qi Condensation.... then the 7th condensing cycle... the 8th... the 9th.. the 10th... the 11th... that was until he reached the 12th Cultivation Base condensing cycle. He started to feel something changing... something was changing as he began to condense his cultivation base back down for the 12th time.
'What is this feeling?'
Azmond asked himself with a quizzical look on his attractive face.
'It feels like when I was breaking through the 11th refinement cycle, 101st refinement cycle, and then completing the 1000th refinement cycle during the Body Refinement Realm.'
'I feel like my body will transform into something better if I complete the 12th Cultivation Base Condensing Cycle before breaking through into the 2nd Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation!'
Azmond thought to himself with an excited smile.
'Let's get to it then!'
Azmond then continued to cultivate in his insane way till he condensed and recultivated back up to the peak for the 12th time. When he reached the peak of the first stage of The Quantum Qi Condensation Realm, it felt like he achieved the most perfect foundation possible.
'My foundation has definitely reached the peak of perfection! I should now try to breakthrough to the second stage of Quantum Qi Condensation to see what that feeling I had earlier was all about.'
Azmond thought to himself as he began to break through to the 2nd Stage of Quantum Qi Condensation with a pained look on his beautiful face.
It took a total of 2 days for Azmond's breakthrough into the 2nd stage of Quantum Qi Condensation to begin as the abundant Qi surrounding the large waterfall he was cultivating under started to swarm towards him in large amounts. It was an out-of-this-world sight to see all the brilliantly colored Qi in the air surrounding Azmond like they were awaiting the birth of their God. A sight that not many would be able to witness in this world...
*Whooshh* *Swisshh*
The sound of the Qi in the air coming toward Azmond was heard as he approached the tipping point of his breakthrough.
...
A day later... Azmond's breakthrough went without a hitch as he officially broke through into the 2nd stage of Quantum Qi Condensation, but Azmond was not currently aware of any of this as he was currently within a galaxy-shaped cocoon going through another transformation.
...
2 days later... A boy around 13 years old with Long Raven Black Hair and Beautiful sapphire-like eyes emerged from within the galaxy-shaped cocoon, as the entire cocoon disappeared into nothingness. He had features so divine that even the gods would spit out blood in envy...
'This keeps on happening to me huh?'
Azmond thought to himself with a bewildered look as he stared at his now slightly bigger hands.
'I wonder what changed inside my body? But more importantly, I wonder how much my power has increased?!?'
Azmond's smile grew disproportionately as he scanned the inside of his body with his divine sense. What Azmond saw surprised him a little...
'Oh? I now have 2000 qi cyclones with half of them being a foot in diameter, and the other half being an inch in diameter.'
Azmond thought to himself with a small smile on his handsome face as he looked at the larger and smaller qi cyclones which surrounded his dantian, like planets orbiting a star.
Azmond wasted no time, as he started to cultivate again to increase the size of his qi cyclones. He spent a little over a week getting all of his Qi Cyclones to 2 feet in diameter, which was only possible due to his increase in cultivation realm which increased his acceptable limit to 2 feet for each Qi cyclone.
'My energy storage has increased by a total of 4 times after getting all of my Qi Cyclones to 2 feet in diameter, which is far better when compared to the version of me at the Quantum Qi Condensation 1st stage with only 1000 qi cyclones, 1 foot in diameter.'
Azmond thought to himself with a satisfied smile.
He then looked at the exact power output increase he gained from breaking through... The increase astounded him to say the least, as he was now capable of causing 200 times more damage than he could when still at the beginning of the 1st stage of Quantum Qi Condensation with no condensing cycles completed!
'I should be able to level a small mountain range without breaking a sweat now!'
Azmond thought to himself with an expectant gaze as he checked on his physical power increase as well.
'My body is now in the same league as a Late-Golden Core Cultivator's Body! I should even be close to equalling a cultivator at the Peak Late-Golden Realm with both my physical strength and Energy output combined! I might even be able to take on someone who is half a step into the Peak-Golden Core Realm with my technique proficiencies added into the mix!'
Azmond thought to himself with a small smile.
The difference between each minor realm after the Core Formation Realm is like the difference between Heaven and Earth! It might seem like a 200 times increase in power is a lot, but in reality, it's only enough for Azmond to leapfrog one minor stage in the Golden Core Realm... Which is still an impossible accomplishment for someone in the Qi Condensation Realm to achieve, and yet... Azmond did just that.
"Now that I understand my own strength, it's time to go back to cultivating! The 2nd stage of Quantum Qi Condensation is far from enough to satisfy me!'
Azmond thought to himself with a crazed smile on his attractive face as he resumed his tortuous cultivation session again.
