The training steps of the Three Lights Righteous Qi Art were extremely structured: refining qi with the three lights, then refining the Saint Embryo Body, followed by the Seven Refinements of the Big Dipper, and finally the Golden Core Nine Revolutions.
The realms corresponding to these were respectively Qi Refining, Body Refining, Foundation Establishment, and Golden Core—these four realms.
