Aksai had utilized his neural link fabric to adjust his cultivation base before meeting with his allies.

Presently, he appeared as a Spirit cultivator in the 8th stage of the Body Refining realm. 

Given Aksai's assertion that he had made significant sacrifices to secure victory against the three Spirit Refining opponents, there was little reason to doubt his words after one witnessed his "regressed" cultivation base.

Aksai understood that while Nuya had accepted him and the others in her squad as co-owners of the island, she had retained leadership of the squad itself.

Among the five of them, she was perceived as the primary owner of the island by the island's populace. As a Spirit Refining Perfectionist, Nuya's individual might be undisputed on the island.

In Aksai's previous world, if the island were listed as an asset on the stock exchange, Nuya, Aksai, Arama, Dia, and Nimiya had invested their wealth in acquiring shares.
