"Alright, I see that you have quite a bit of potential, but you haven''t fully established your foundations yet. If you had apprenticed yourself to a dragon of any other element, you probably wouldn''t have been able to establish your foundationspletely, and you wouldn''t have had this chance. Oh well, perhaps this is truly destiny given to you by the heavens. From now on, stay in this greatke, and let me use the power of the Aqua Dragon to help you open up your cirction, allowing you to internalize your cultivation."


    "Open up my cirction? Internalize my cultivation?"


    Wilbur felt puzzled, but suddenly, a cool force surged up from the soles of his feet, traveling through his leg bones. This sensation was simr to what he felt when practicing the Dragon Move, and he immediately understood Orkot''s intention.


    Since Wilbur had previously worked on his foundations, his energy circtory pathways were already somewhat open, but the energy flow was still too weak. However, this prepared him for theplete opening this time.


    All night, Wilbur felt waves of pain in his bones, asionally letting out a muffled groan. By dawn, the force finally subsided, and Wilbur copsed into an exhausted sleep.


    He slept for three whole days. When he woke up, he felt the flow of energy within his body, and it felt unbelievable. Originally, he thought he had already stored a sufficient amount of dragon aura. But now, after fully opening up his cirction, he realized his body could hold more than three times the amount of dragon aura than before.


    Clearly, opening his meridians was indeed crucial. Looking at his hands, Wilbur understood that for a dragon n cultivator, dragon aura was an essential foundation. The more dragon aura stored within the body, the stronger one''s power would be.


    "You finally woke up. Now, I will teach you the method to internalize your


    cultivation. Listen carefully."


    "Internalize my cultivation?"


    Wilbur interrupted Orkot, frowning. "Master, do you mean to teach me how to hide my cultivation?"


    "No, not to hide it, but to internalize it."


    Wilbur frowned again. "Is there a difference between the two?"


    "Of course. Internalizing your cultivation is like preserving your strength. Others may not be able to see through you. But if you only hide it, you can be easily seen through, making it impossible to survive in that world."


    "That world?"


    Wilbur asked in confusion, "Master, which world are you talking about? A middle dimension or a higher dimension?"


    "I''m talking about a higher dimension. It''s filled with dangers there. To survive, the best way is to internalize your cultivation. Almost no cultivators there reveal their true strength. They only show their real power when they are certain they need to act. So, almost no one knows each other''s true strength. But once discovered, the result is usually being killed and losing one''s dimensional ring, falling to a lower- level dimension, ultimately bing weak."


    "Dimensional ring?"


    Wilbur felt his mind spinning,pletely unsure of what the Aqua Dragon meant. In his imagination, the cultivators of middle and higher dimensions should have more rules and order. How could they kill each other so freely?


    Over the next two months, Wilbur continued to train under Aqua Dragon Orkot and gradually learned about the middle and higher dimension worlds from him.


    He learned that the universe was indeed divided into three different dimensions. Higher and middle dimensions were advanced, while lower dimensions were primitive. Long ago, lower dimensions were a ce overrun by evil cultivators, leaving a terrible impression.


    Later, some lower dimensions were cleansed by dimension guardians, turning them into ces suitable for one to live in.
