Cultivation Realms (Revealed until now)

Qi Cultivation Path:

1°) Essence Refining Realm: Divided into nine layers, it is about refining Aura into True Qi, which has some effect in nourishing the body and soul. It's called "Essence Refining" because it's in this Realm that a cultivator changes their Essence* for the first time.

*This Essence is not the same as the one in the Essence, Qi, and Soul, trio. This Essence refers to the essence of a being, the life plane's level.

2°) Qi Vortex Realm: Divided into nine layers, it's about gathering and refining more True Qi until a vortex of it begins to form inside the Dantian. The stronger the currents of the vortex, the faster a cultivator could absorb aura and refine it, and the True Qi turns stronger as well. When the vortex is completely formed, the cultivator gains the ability to increase his cultivation base passively, without the need to concentrate.

Body Refining Path:

1°) Smithing Realm: Divided into nine layers, it's about simply tempering and refining the whole body until the limit. The Blood Qi is strengthened until it begins to turn liquid from gaseous.

2°) Extremity Realm: Divided into nine layers, it's about using the stronger Blood Qi to refine one's life essence continuously, breaking through one's innate limits and reaching new levels of vitality and strength. When one reaches the limit, the Blood Qi will begin to show signs of transforming into Yuan Qi, a higher level of energy.

3°) Treasured Realm: Divided into five layers instead of nine. Each layer referred to one of the human's body five secret life treasures: Pure marrow, pure blood, pure bones, pure organs, and pure muscles and tendons. Each time a secret treasure is completely activated, one's body will get a great boost in strength and vitality.

Soul Refining Path:

1°) Cleasing Realm: About eliminating all acquired external impurities in one's soul.

2°) Accumulation Realm: Divided into nine layers, had as goal accumulation of enough soul power to open one's sea of consciousness, similar to a Dantian but localized in the soul. When at the peak of this Realm, a cultivator has to condense a soul lamp to advance further. The soul will reside inside the soul lamp and it will breed the external soul sense. Even if the body is dead, as long as the soul resides inside the soul lamp, the person will be alive, at least as long as his/her rootless soul power lasts and the wild energies from the world shatter the soul lamp.

3°) True Mind Realm: Divided into five layers. Each layer referred to one of the soul's five secret talents: Soul mind, soul eyes, soul ears, soul mouth, and soul touch. Each time one secret talent was unlocked, his soul would then transform and get much stronger, his exterior soul sense would expand numerous times as well and he would be able to sense things farther away and in greater detail.

Literary Path:

Without any fixed Realm except the beginning, which is the formation and condensation of one's literary heart. After this, each cultivator will have to discover their way. But the more a cultivator develops his original literary heart, in whatever form it might end up taking, the stronger and more versatile the literary power becomes. A cultivator needs to constantly learn and comprehend new things about the world, people, and even him/herself to increase his cultivation base. It's said to be one of the most difficult and complex cultivation paths, but also one of the most powerful overall, without any kind of obvious weakness after a certain level of power and versatility is achieved. Its potential is on par with the mainstream path of Qi Cultivation.

////∆∆\\\\

Apart from the power systems labeled as "cultivation," there were numerous paths in the numerous worlds that were referred to by other terms.

In the Vast World, the predominant power system is the Arcane Magic Path. It is divided into different power levels, but those were not called "Realms." Instead, they were named "Dominions."

Magic Star Dominion:

It is divided into ten smaller power levels, from the First Magic Star to the Tenth Magic Star.

This Dominion is about lighting up magic stars in the Natal Acupoint of the heart by using one's mastery over magic and the natural aura. Every time one magic star was lit, the mage was empowered exponentially compared to before. It requires a great amount of resources and time to advance and is more difficult in the early stages than the Qi Cultivation Path.
