Chapter 174: Cultivation Realms
Tang Yin did not need a Training Manual. He already possessed the Heaven Devouring Abyssal Sanskrit which was suited for the Heaven Devouring Abyss. However, he was still shocked at Tian Huang’s versatility. There were Tier 4 Training Manuals included in the jade token!
After thoroughly reading the first jade token, Tang Yin moved on to the next jade token.
The second jade token contained even more content which Tang Yin yearned for. It explained and described the cultivation realms after the Mortal Step!
Along with explanations of the cultivation realms after the Spirit Ascension Realm, Tian Huang had embedded his experience and guidance for each realm.
Once a cultivator reached the peak of the Qi Transformation Realm, they would need to form a Soul Sea to enter the Spirit Ascension Realm.
The Soul Sea was a sphere in the mind of a cultivator. Their soul would reside inside of it. Not only that, but they would also develop a spiritual sense cultivators called ’divine sense’.
Tian Huang was a wisp of divine sense his original body had left behind to overlook the inheritance.
The Soul Sea would contain the memories, knowledge, techniques and the soul of a cultivator inside of it. The sea inside of the Soul Sea represented the various memories, knowledge and techniques of a cultivator. Whereas the soul of a cultivator would be floating above the sea. The divine sense also originates from said cultivator’s soul.
The strength of a soul would directly reflect the strength of a cultivator’s divine sense.
The divine sense of a cultivator could allow them to see and sense everything within a certain radius of their surroundings. The efficiency and effectiveness of this ability mainly depended on the strength of the cultivator’s soul.
The divine sense also had other uses such as being able to directly attack the soul of another cultivator and being able to temporarily manifest a divine sense clone.
Of course, this was under the premise of the divine sense being fairly powerful.
Once Tang Yin read all of this and much more regarding the Spirit Ascension Realm and the Soul Sea, he was shocked.
He did not think that entering the Spirit Ascension Realm was akin to unlocking a whole new path of cultivation which mainly revolved around the soul and mind of a cultivator.
After the Spirit Ascension Realm was tribulations.
If a cultivator wanted to go past the Spirit Ascension Realm, they would need to face 9 tribulations.
The 9 tribulations could either be faced all at once or one at a time.
As for Demonic Beasts. They would only face a single tribulation during their Metamorphosis. However, the strength of that single tribulation was terrifying.
Thinking of this, Tang Yin suddenly looked towards Xiao Fei.
’She did not undergo tribulation during her Metamorphosis. Why is that? Could it be due to her race being unique or something else?’ Tang Yin speculated. Xiao Fei did not experience tribulation during her metamorphosis.
He could not obtain an answer at the moment. So, he did not dwell on it for now.
Tang Yin then moved on to the next part, the truly exciting part.
After the 9 tribulations, one could enter the Principle Step!
There were 4 realms in the Principle Step: Principle Comprehension Realm, Principle Manipulation Realm, Law Domain Realm and finally the Law Creation Realm.
Each realm was then further divided into the Early-stage, Middle-stage, Late-stage and Peak-stage.
In the Principle Comprehension Realm, a cultivator could sense the Principles of the world and based on this sensation, they would need to comprehend them.
They could either focus on sensing and comprehending a single Principle or multiple Principles. Most cultivators would focus on only a single Principle as multiple Principles would be too difficult to comprehend and it was a long process.
The Principle Manipulation Realm was a realm where cultivators would manipulate and control a Principle of the world or multiple Principles depending on what they focused on in the earlier realm.
Cultivators would be able to use the Principles of the world and embed them into their attacks to gain a stronger output.
The number of Principles which a cultivator could control depended on their stage. Meaning an Early-stage Principle Manipulation Realm cultivator would only be able to control Principles to a small degree.
The Law Domain Realm could only be reached by a cultivator once they assimilated their comprehension and understanding of Principles into a domain which solely belonged to them.
The Principle would be enforced inside of the domain and the domain would be under the full control of a cultivator. It was similar to a cultivator having their own world with their own rules being enforced.
The strength of a cultivator’s Law Domain usually depended on 2 aspects. The first was comprehension and manipulation. The more understanding a cultivator possessed towards their Principle, the easier it would be to control and create a Law Domain.
The second aspect was cultivation. The strength of a Law Domain would become much stronger each time the cultivator increased their cultivation by a minor stage.
The final realm in the Principle Step was the Law Creation Realm.
A cultivator could only step into the Law Creation Realm once they compressed their understanding of Principles and their Domain into one. This would create a new Principle that cultivators called a law.
The law could either be a branch existing off of an already existing Principle, however, this would not really be unique and would make the cultivator in the Law Creation Realm much weaker compared to others in the same realm. freewёbnoνel.com
Or a cultivator could create a whole brand new law which was unique and solely belonged to them. Not only would they possess extraordinary strength, but they would also have a higher chance of advancing their cultivation in the Law Creation Realm.
Tang Yin’s mind was in a state of shock. This was probably the most shock he had ever experienced. This was a higher path of cultivation which he did not know existed. Although there were a few parts which he did not understand at the moment, this would change as he advanced his cultivation.
Normally, Spirit Ascension Realm cultivators would only know about the existence of the Principle Step, the cultivation realms inside of the Principle Step and the existence of Principles.
They did not have a whole guide and description of the Principle Step like Tang Yin unless they had a Principle Step cultivator supporting them.
