Well, in a fantasy story, first is the setup or exposition. It's like setting the stage, showing the magical world, and introducing the hero or heroine. As the story progresses, the rising action builds up the tension. This could be the hero facing different magical creatures or dark forces. The climax is the big showdown. After that, the falling action calms things down a bit, and the resolution makes everything right in the end.
In the ordinary world stage, it's about setting the scene and character. The call to adventure is the key event that starts the journey. Refusal of the call shows character depth. Mentor provides guidance. Crossing the threshold is the entry to the fantasy. Tests, allies, and enemies create conflict. Return to the ordinary world is about resolution.
Sure. The first stage is often the ordinary world, where the main character starts. Then comes the call to adventure, which disrupts their normal life. Next is the refusal of the call, as the character may be hesitant. After that, meeting the mentor who guides them. The fifth stage is crossing the threshold into the unknown. Then comes tests, allies, and enemies. And finally, the return to the ordinary world, transformed.
The stages of a story are initiation, complication, and denouement. In the initiation, the story kicks off, and you get a sense of what's going on. For instance, in a love story, two people might meet. The complication is when problems start to occur, like in the love story, there could be family opposition or misunderstandings between the two lovers. The denouement is when everything gets sorted out, whether the lovers end up together or go their separate ways.
In most fantasy novels, cultivation was generally divided into the following stages:
1. Mortal Stage: Cultivators who have yet to cultivate into humans are in the mortal state of body and mind, and need to rely on food and reiki to maintain their lives.
2. Foundation Establishment Stage: Cultivators achieve the goal of Foundation Establishment by refining pills and absorbing spiritual energy. At this time, the body is initially formed and the soul is tempered.
3. Core Formation Stage: The cultivator's body will gradually become stronger and the soul will become purer. The spiritual energy of the pill will become richer and richer. The body can condense an inner core.
4. Soul Formation Stage: The inner core of the cultivator's body matures day by day, the body gradually becomes stronger, and the soul gradually sublimates. The cultivator can enter the divine realm by absorbing the spiritual energy from the outside world.
5. Integration Stage: The cultivator absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to condense into a golden core. At this time, the body has become abnormally strong. The soul and the body have fused into one. The big move can be activated to show great strength.
6. Ascension Stage: When a Xiuzhenist's strength reaches the limit, they can leave the Mortal World and enter the Immortal World or the Divine World by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
The above was the cultivation stage of ordinary fantasy novels. Different authors might have different levels of cultivation.

I recommend "My Little Sister Is Really Good at Causing Trouble" to you. It's a light novel, a fantasy novel. The main character, Mo Yue, held onto her sister's clothes and acted coquettishly while building a force, expanding the organization, and absorbing Transcendents. It was a fantasy novel that allowed one to establish a force in the early stages. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
