Cultivation Realms:

Each individual who possess "Spiritual Roots", can train himself first in "Body Refinement". Body Refinement consists of 10 levels, each level specifying on a body part to strengthen it. The 10 levels of Body Refinement are as follows;

Skin Hardening Level

The individual will use specially prepared medicinal bath and ointments for skin refinement. The ingredients for medicinal bath and ointments are distributed once 'Spiritual Roots' presence is shown in a ceremony held annually. After hardening, the skin can withstand ordinary swords, blades, and simple spirit attacks, but still they are not indestructible. This level takes around 1 year depending on the individual aptitude.

Bone Strengthening Level.

In the second level of body refinement, the individual will start tempering their bones by beating wooden dummy, taking bone refinement pills.This process is completed when the practitioner can break a tree of width equivalent to that of elephants leg with a single punch. This process takes around 1 year to complete.

Flesh Hardening Level.

In the third level of body refinement, the individual will start hardening his flesh and muscles by medicinal bath, medicinal pills and getting beaten by instructor repeatedly day after day till they can withstand a full 100kg punch without any damage or pain. This process takes 1 year to complete.

Veins Tempering.

In the fourth level of body refinement, the individual will temper his veins, arteries and all other blood vessels to withstand damage, spirit attack and higher quantity of blood flow rate during cultivation and as well as fights. This process takes a year to complete.

Marrow Cleansing.

In the fifth level of body refinement, the individual will cleanse his bone marrow and increase the blood cell production required for cultivation. This is achieved by taking various pills and accupunture.

Blood Purifying.

In the sixth level of body refinement, the individual will purify his blood so that it can carry higher level of oxygen and nutrients, which is essential for a cultivators as they go on an extended period of meditation and fight. Also the cultivators need higher blood flow, oxygen and nutrients to their brain, so that they can think far more superiorly than ordinary humans. This process takes around two years to complete.

Organ Hardening.

In this seventh level of body refinement, the practitioner will train his internal organs to withstand extreme pressure, fatal blows and spirit attacks. The practitioner will use various pills mixed with certain special and rare herbs to strengthen his organs. Once completed his organs would be capable of withstanding a full force punch of 500kg, without any internal damage ( unlike bones, if internal organ sustains heavy damage it'll be destroyed, that's why they need to withstand higher levels of punch than bones and muscles). This level takes around a year to complete.

Heart & Brain Tempering.

This is the most crucial tempering process in body refinement. Because ordinary mortals need not to do any excessive tasks or work that'll take heavy toll on their brain and heart. But for cultivators who endure physical activity far beyond mortals, need to have a strong heart and powerful brain to process a large amount of information within seconds ( faster than computers, of course 😑). In this level practitioner has to endure heavy physical and followed mental work without getting exhausted. He needs to spend atleast a month without sleep or minimum sleep. Also to temper the heart and brain he needs to take a rare type of pill ( which will be explained in the main story). This level take around 2 years to complete.

Full Body Cleansing.

In this ninth level of body refinement the practitioner must remove all impurities from his body, which is accumulated due to the pills and other medicinal ingredients before he participates in the final level of body refinement. This is done by taking a specially prepared pill which is suitable for him to cleanse his body. This pill is only half refined, and the rest of refinement is done by the practitioner within his body by using medicinal impurities present. After refinement he needs to throw up the pill to cleanse himself. This process takes around a year ( due to closed door refinement process) to complete.

Fire Cleansing.

In this final level of body refinement, the practitioner will enter the "Fire Hall" of his clan, to bath in the "Eternal Holy Fire". This fire will alter his entire cell structure and give him the superior strength, strong physique, and immense wisdom for his journey as a cultivator.

But the type of fire needed for refinement is determined by family status and previous cultivators of clan who have become immortals. The three different kinds of fire available are "Earthly Fire", "Heavenly Fire" and the most mysterious "Primordial Fire". Almost all Noble families have the earthly fire, but only the 3 out of 4 "Heavenly Clan" possess heavenly fire ( hence the name). The fourth heavenly clan was betrayed by the three other clan and were exiled from the main continent. Their Heavenly fire was stolen from them before being exiled. The "Primordial Fire" is only mentioned in ancient texts and scriptures, but for over billions of years it's existence is still unknown. ( I'll explain more about this fire in main story). Those who complete the Fire Cleansing, will receive any one of the three different body types, such as Earthly, Heavenly or the rumoured Primordial body type. ( more about these body type in main story).

( it is possible for someone to obtain an earthly grade body, even though he is cleansed by heavenly fire, but not the other way around )

After completion of all levels of body refinement, the practitioner will begin his cultivation and now he is called as a "Cultivator". Those who successfully pass the body refinement test ( that is by obtaining any one of the body type) will be awarded resources for their first level of cultivation. Those who fail will join their clans army, or any other special units tasked with protecting clan border, business or as personal bodyguards. Though they won't get as many special previlages like cultivators, they'll receive respect form other clans and mortals, even they can start their own clan or mortal sects specialising in body refinement.

Also once the body refinement is completed they're lifespan increase up to 200years.

The individual will begin their body refinement journey at the age of three, and move in successive levels simultaneously, such that by the age of 10 they can participate in their first Fire Cleansing ceremony. Also there will be a second Fire Cleansing ceremony for those who take a bit longer to complete the nine levels of body refinement. The second Fire Cleansing ceremony takes place when the practitioner can complete it by the age of fourteen. ( it is also possible for ordinary mortals who do not possess any spiritual root to practice body refinement up to seventh level which can increase their strength, physique and also lifespan, they can live for up to 150 years without any type of physical problems)

After the Body Refinement, the Cultivation Realms are as follows;

Qi Refinement ( 10 sub levels for Earthly and Heavenly Body cultivators)

Foundation Establishment ( 3 sub levels for Earthly and Heavenly Body cultivators)

Core Formation ( 3 sub levels for Earthly and Heavenly Body cultivators).

Nascent Soul ( 3 sub levels for Earthly and Heavenly Body cultivators)

Soul Integration ( 2 sub levels for Earthly and Heavenly Body cultivators)

Deity Transformation ( 3 sub levels for Earthly and Heavenly Body cultivators)

After a cultivator achieves Deity Transformation his life span will be around 2000 years, and he can enter the first level of heaven after ascension.
