Sup Folks
The moment that most of you have been waiting for since the start of this series:
- Chapter 0057 – Battling Qi Condensation
Translated and Checked By – DemonKiller
Edited and Proofread By – CurlyAdi
This is the first guaranteed regular chapter of this week, i.e regular Monday release.
P.S. Sorry for the posting this chapter late, it was actually completed yesterday, but I ended up reading ahead and finally reached the 100 Chapter in raws, all I can tell you at this moment is that it finally starts to get exciting from here onward.
Also while reading the raws I finally came across the chapter where all the 9 Cultivation Realms in this series were briefly discussed (only in name), and honestly I don’t know if the author has a whacky sense of humor or I misinterpreted the words, but either way I might need a bit of help from our reader base to finalize the names of the cultivation realms (not having a TLC who knows the language is really a pain, and the one we do have cannot be reached at the moment, he probably is scared because we kidnapped him last time to update our glossary), so any help in this area will be really appreciated as I spent almost the entire night just on that particular chapter.
This might be considered a minor spoiler, so if you all can skip it if you like, as it has the names of the 9 Cultivation Realms, from 1 to 9, in this series:
- Qi Gathering Realm (聚气境)
- Qi Condensation Realm (凝真境)
- Building Yuan Realm (筑元境)
- Mysterious Liquid Realm (玄液境)
- Mysterious Dan Realm (玄丹境)
- Yuan Soul Realm (元魂境)
- Model Soul Realm (塑神境)
- King Sea Realm (辟海境)
- Transforming Cauldron Realm (化鼎境)
The first five realms are already know by you all (have already been discussed briefly or at least in name), but the last four realms, I have no clue and have only put the literal translation here.
So my request is, if any of have an alternate name or think that I translated them wrong (at least for the last 4 realms), then please point them out with a few suggestions, the help would really be appreciated and your name or screen name (your choice) would even be featured in the post and as well as the chapter page that would be dedicated to you (this is apart from the regular chapters, i.e you all get an extra chapter which would be dedicated to the person who proposed the names).

thanks for the chap! and finaaaaallyyyy ❤ i hope that girl who threw him of the airship is next! kill her! i dont know why but for some reason i get extra furious if i see women doing these things more than men; maybe because of the "vag**a plot armor" for women in xianxia who dont get killed even tho it would be justified based on their previous actions. pls gate of good fortune, dont spare any person who deserves to die, no matter the gender :X

As a disclaimer i only know English,
6 I think is good,
7 not sure if this is meant to mean model as in ideal or model as in flawless, if the latter, I like flawless or pure soul realm, just on sound,
8 King sea real. Sounds clunky, maybe try Royal sea, realm? Failing that, overlord,or sovereign
9 this is what made me bother writing this comment, I recommend using crucible rather than cauldron, it sounds better to me, has overtones of forging or refining, which seems appropriate, not sure what to do about “transformation” I like transmutation but fear the whole realm sounds too alchemical then, metamorphosis? Not sure it’s better and none of them slip off the toungue so, shrug
Enjoying the novel, thanks

Model Soul Realm (塑神境) – Is way wrong as the model portion should be referring to the molding of ones body into a shen which in old tao is what they called humans that gained the tao and had an affinity for an animal or something and could turn into it. Basically I do not believe shen means soul in this case but beyond just calling it the su shen realm i have no real suggestion here 😛
Transforming Cauldron Realm (化鼎境) – Is confusing as I believe the cauldron is referring to the 9 cauldrons which could be translated into transforming to the the king or something great. I’d call it the Great Transformation Realm personally since it has nothing to do with a cauldron…
6 and 8 are direct translations and are perfectly fine…

1. Qi Gathering Realm (聚气境) ok
2. True Condensation Realm (凝真境) ok
3. Essence Building Realm (筑元境) or (foundation building) but Essence feel better
4. Profound Liquid Realm (玄液境) = Profound Congeal (Core)
5. Profound Core Realm (玄丹境) = ok (Solid?)
6. Soul Essence Realm(元魂境) = Nascent Soul
7. Soul Sculpting Realm(塑神境) = OK SPIRIT Forming (severing)
8. Sea Opening Realm(辟海境) = SAME idea
9. Cauldron/Crucible Transforming Realm(化鼎境) =
Because terms and story seems to be close related with Xian Ni and ISSTH, it is not bad/inappropriate to have resamblance or even using equivalent naming. If u wish
Realm/stage is a secondary (trifling) term
character 液 (ye) means sap/juice/liquid/fluid
Character 玄 (Xuan) means black/mysterious or deep, profound, abstruse;
4. I believe it is equivalent to early core stage where core become from liquid to muddled form
5. Here Core is/becomes solid
Character 元 (Yuan) means prime/first/orgin/head
Character 魂 (hún) means soul/spirit
Character 塑 (su) means model mould/sculpt (shape)
Yuanhun and Yuanying has the same context/meaning (It is mentioned and explained in WW-post)
6. Therefore you could name it also as prime or elementary soul/spirit but Nascent Soul is…
7. Please use SPIRIT here sculpting/forming are good
Character 辟 (bi,pi) means 1.king; monarch; to enlist; to repel; to avoid 2. law 3. to dispel; to refute; to repudiate; to open up (for development)
Character 海 means ocean; sea; great number of people or things; (dialect) numerous;
8. So I would go with opening/developing or enlighten
Also Sea but if it is about (Core Sea): (Sea of perception): or Qi Sea in chest or of Great number… is unknown to me
so it can be about Great development/enlightenment or just pursue or seek:) to that great realm
Character 化 (huà) means to make into; to change into; -ization; to … -ize; to transform; convert, reform;
Character 鼎 (ding) means cauldron/tripod/substantial
10. after asking others also they said it means top, apex, peak, zenith, cusp/vertix in other words just pinnacle/highest realm so why not call it…
