So the question is how does this interact:
The Crossblooded Sorcerer gaining two bloodlines and the Bloodline Development exploit.
What the Crossblooded get:
Class Skill
A crossblooded sorcerer receives the bonus class skill from both of her bloodlines. If these are the same skill, this does not grant any additional benefit.
Bonus Spells
A crossblooded sorcerer may select her bonus spells from either of her bloodlines. The sorcerer also has the choice to learn a lower-level bonus spell she did not choose in place of the higher-level bonus spell she would normally gain. Lower-level bonus spells learned this way always use the spell level that they would be if the sorcerer had learned them with the appropriate bonus spell.
Bonus Feat
A crossblooded sorcerer combines the bonus feat lists from both of her bloodlines and may select her bloodline bonus feats from this combined list.
Bloodline Arcana
A crossblooded sorcerer gains the bloodline arcana of both her bloodlines.
Bloodline Powers
At 1st, 3rd, 9th, 15th, and 20th levels, a crossblooded sorcerer gains one of the two new bloodline powers available to her at that level. She may instead select a lower-level bloodline power she did not choose in place of one of these higher-level powers.
Drawbacks
A crossblooded sorcerer has one fewer spell known at each level (including cantrips) than is presented on Table: Sorcerer Spells Known.
Furthermore, the conflicting urges created by the divergent nature of the crossblooded sorcerer’s dual heritage forces her to constantly take some mental effort just to remain focused on her current situation and needs. This leaves her with less mental resolve to deal with external threats. A crossblooded sorcerer always takes a –2 penalty on Will saves.
What the Bloodline Development Exploit is:
Bloodline Development
The arcanist selects one sorcerer bloodline upon taking this exploit. The arcanist gains that bloodline’s 1st-level bloodline power as though she were a 1st-level sorcerer. The arcanist must select an ordinary bloodline with this ability, not one altered by an archetype. As a swift action, the arcanist can expend 1 point from her arcane reservoir to bolster her latent nature, allowing her to treat her arcanist level as her sorcerer level for the purpose of using this ability, which lasts for a number of rounds equal to her Charisma modifier (minimum 1). She does not gain any other abilities when using this exploit in this way, such as bloodline arcana or those bloodline powers gained at 3rd level or higher. If this ability is used to gain an arcane bond and a bonded item is selected, the arcanist can only use that item to cast spells of a level equal to the level of spell that could be cast by her equivalent sorcerer level (limiting her to 1st level spells unless she spends a point from her arcane reservoir). If the arcanist already has a bloodline (or gains one later), taking this exploit instead allows her arcanist levels to stack with the levels of the class that granted her access to the bloodline when determining the powers and abilities of her bloodline.
Copied from the d20PFSRD.
The big piece is the last line of the BLD Exploit. "If the arcanist already has a bloodline (or gains one later), taking this exploit instead allows her arcanist levels to stack with the levels of the class that granted her access to the bloodline when determining the powers and abilities of her bloodline." So...Do the levels stack so that you progress further as a Crossblooded Sorcerer and its progression or does it only count for the bloodline abilities/powers gained at 1, 3, 9, and so on?
Also, for clarification what is a bloodline ability?
the important part of what you're asking about is this text: "when determining the powers and abilities of her bloodline" why would you progress further as a crossblooded sorceror? it only counts for the powers/abilities gained at the levels, because it specifically says so in the text i bolded. That's what it means.

I wanted to be sure because the group I usually play with would say otherwise and I was looking at this at 2 am and all bets are off when it comes to fully understanding the dynamics involved.
so with this combo you would progress gaining the bloodlime powers at 1, 3, 9, and so on from both bloodlines. Correct?
