   Third realm- golden core realm. Often a place where most cultivators linger to grow their foundations. The golden core is created through this stage and the larger you make it,the more potential you will have in the future. 2-10 years average time. Average size is about a baby's fist,the mark of a genius is making it the size of a large orange. Fourth realm- Form Shaping. From here on out, the golden core can take on characteristics of the dao. The core is everchanging. You can freely remove the influence of a dao. It is much harder to learn though. Someone who studies fire dao will have a flaming golden core, and someone who studdies music dao will shape their core into an instrument. All the way to the immortal realms, this will affect them. The golden core is also condensed and refined in this stage, and a small olden core is the sign of talent.

3. #3Cultivation Mortal realms 5-6

   Keys: 5th Realm, 6th Realm, ascending, Sixth realm, Fifth realm, ascended

   Entry settings

   Fifth realm- Heaven-Earth cauldrons. These cauldrons also take on the characteristics of the dao and build up in layers around the golden core like a nesting doll. You can ascend to the sixth realm after just creating one, but many prefer to make more. Average is 12, above 48 is so rare it's mythical. The theoretical limit is 72. These cauldrons will all increase your power and ability by a multiple for each one you have.

   Sixth realm- Empyrean. The final step before transcendance. Most spend at least 200 years preaparing to ascend. The more cauldrons you made in the prior realm, the more you must break to ascend. In this realm, you condense you qi around the cauldrons in whatever you wish to use to attack your cauldrons. To succeed in your tribulation and ascend, one must fight of the heavenly dao's wrath of lightning and heavenly beast phantoms while destroying your way to your own golden core, which would have now fully formed. Should you succeed, your golden core will shatter and your body will reform and you become 1000 fold of everything you want to be. The fragments of the golden core will form into beasts, plants, or Items bound to your very soul related to the Dao you have comprehended. They are called core fragments. It depends on talent and luck how many things form. An untalented person might just get one sword, and a special fruit tree, but it's possible to get tens of items.

   Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

   Entry settings

   Cultivation arts are the methods by which a cultivator absorbs the escence of heaven and earth as well as qi from the air. It also influences the forms and flow of the qi in the body.

   Most of the time, the gathering process of qi is meditation, but some rare techniques may require something else such as combat, tea making, tending to a fire, or in the case of dual cultivation techniques, sex.

   The forms and flow also vary by technique. Most will involve a qi capilary system and cores for storage, or free floating qi, but few will have cores take the shape of flowers, instruments, weapons, or other related objects. This can also affect the flow.

   Keys: path, Dao

   Entry settings

   Dao translates to "path" and dao represent paths to sentient living. There are infinitely many dao. Some live calmly, beautifully and breifly, like the dao of a falling autumn leaf, some live the long and powerful dao of an emperor, and some live like the dao of dog shit, dirty and displeasing.

   Not all Dao are equal though. There are two metrics. The human metric values concepts that are poetic, spiritual, or innately human, like music, poetry, war, seasons, love, and hate. These are more powerful Dao because of their closeness. The other metric is the natural metric, how much do you see it? The wind and weather are strong but still come and go. Time, space, yin, yang, heaven, and earth will almost always exist, and by extension, these are more powerful.

   More powerful Dao are still harder to practice except for the stronger human Dao which have many levels of attainment.

   Levels of mastery are difficult and profound. Most don't even half master 1 dao until golden core, and even then, pursuing mastery further is hard.

   The leves of proficiency are as follows:

   Entry Understanding Mastery Great mastery Supreme mastery

   The heavenly Dao itself is the will of the world and the source of the tribulations of mankind. The heavenly dao will always promote balance and does not lend it's power to beings within it. It can create providence withing beings though, bringing them fortune and a so to say "protagonist" status. But also bring trials with this fortune. {{user}} will be favored by luck in fortunate ways but also be faced with difficult unfortunate scenarios.

   Grade 1: 1 rune Grade 2: 10 runes Grade 3: 1 great rune 100 runes Grade 4: 10 great runes, 10,000 runes Grade 5: 100 great runes, 100,000 runes Grade 6: 1000 great runes, 1,000,000 runes The closer it is to the subsequent grade in rune count, the better the quality. Sometimes, a lower grade can surpass a higher grade from sheer genius of design.

   There are 6 main functions, attack, defense, observation, healing, storage, and movement.
