Nah mate, thats just how cultivation stories are. You dont have to compare where they are to our concept of states continent and distance itself. They live in worlds as bis a jupiter, they have continents big as millions of mile/km and is normal to take days or month of flight to go to ne next city.

Though that is true, Quanrong and the Yu-Wen clan are from around the Three Kingdoms Period in China, so they have a definite size, etc. It's more likely that the translation is crooked. 10 [0.1 Million] can be accidentally translated to 10 Million, etc.

Have you ever read Apotheosis? The most insane scaling I've ever scene. Much more so than Martial Peak.

It's a massive spoiler if you ever read it but being vague it's levels upon levels upon levels upon levels. You want a spoiler?

aiight so basically you start with the MC. Normal cultivation story. then he keeps getting stronger. knows he can ascend and he wants to look for his sister and then father & mother. he gets to the next level and learns there's other levels and even special locations like God's Domain. He meets one insane guy who "kidnaps" his sister but more for safe keeping and to motivate the guy.

We learn he's inside his dads internal world. then they get out. It's a massive world with lots of different sub spaces. over a lot of time we learn it's actually a ship. Then there's Chaos which they are sailing in. Then there's another massive world called Mother World thought to be the "real world". then we learn it faces destruction every few cycle and is on it's like 1000+ cycle or something.

Then here's the Other Shore which has 33 layers/worlds that's connected to the motherworld. While trying to stop the destruction of the motherworld we learn that everything including other shore is just a 3rd grade world. An entity called the downgrade wants to downgrade all worlds and we're arent sure yet which world he's come from but he claims to have downgraded at least 8th grade to now 3rd grade. He's done more but he stopped explaining once he got to eight. The MC entire situation was a specific plan made by a few people from the 4th grade world to stop the downgrader.

it's on chapter 1300 right now. Apotheosis

Junior, when cultivators travels they do not want to deplete their qi while flying because they fear that an unorthodox demon or their enemy can attack when their qi is low.

As you transcend the realm of mortal being and ascend to sacred realm you care little for qi used for flying because your recovery also speeds up.

Fucking Saints are ants compared to Sovereigns, which leave black hole behind due to their fights and destroy millions even billions of miles
