Chapter 1: World
(The world of Tiangou)
The world we are in is a eastern typical Chinese cultivation world called "Tiangou". But other from other cultivation worlds this world is divided into 3 layers. Lesser, Higher and Supreme. In the lesser layers of the heaven there are mostly mortals and only a few cultivators. However, looking at the higher heavens you see there is an immense difference. In the Higher heavens there are mostly cultivators and only few thousand mortals. And for the supreme layer... yeah I think you guys can pretty much imagine.
The System;
Physique: Mortal,King, Emperor, Ancestor, Saint, Divine, Immortal, Heaven-Defying.
Items (Weapons, Artifacts in general): King, Emperor, Ancestor, Saint, Divine, and Immortal
Pills; 1-10 stars
Beasts: 1-10 stars
Cultivation Levels (Lesser Layer):
Lower three stages: Body-Strengthening (1-9 minor realms), Body-Refining (1-9 minor realms), Body-Consuming (1-3 minor realms)
Mid three stages: Qi-Gathering (1-9 minor realms), Qi-Forming (1-9 minor realms), Qi-Core (1-3 minor realms)
Upper Three stages: Core-Strengthening (1-9 minor realms), Core-Reinforcement (1-9 minor realms), Core-Shattering (1-3 minor realms).
Higher heavens:
Lower: Soul-Core-Creation (1 minor Realm), Soul-Core Refinement (1-9 minor realms), Soul-Core-Completion (1 Realm)
Mid: Soul-Core-transformation (3 minor realms), Soul-Core-Expansion (1-9 minor realms), Soul-Core-Evolving (1-9 minor realms)
Upper: Profound-Soul-Core (Nascent Soul) (1-3 layers), Golden-Core (1-3 layers), Earth-Core (1-3 layers), Earth-Sky-core (1-3 layers), Heaven-Core (1-9 layers)
Btw. There is a big difference between a layer and a simple minor realm. One layer is similar to 4 Minor realms.
All kingdoms, Dynasty's etc. I will explain later on in the story :)
