While waiting for the summoned beasts to arrive, he went back to the library. He wanted to check out the book on the cultivation system.
There was not much, the first few pages were about the grades, whether bloodline or vessel, it didn't matter, according to the book the grades were the same.
*The first four grades, namely mortal, earth, sky and heaven aren't special in any way. However, the higher one's grade is, the faster their essence absorption speed but their essence purification process also becomes higher.
So even though those with a higher grade bloodline absorbed essence at a faster rate, most of that essence is discarded and purified until the only essence left matches the minimum quality for that grade.
It is possible to continue purifying the essence by yourself but that would slow down your cultivation speed even more, so very few do it.
For the first four grades, other than that and the increase in one's will volume.* ' Volume? How does will have Volume?' that didn't make sense to him.
There was no explanation on it so he promised to check it out later. He continued reading.
*Other than the increase in will volume and purity of essence, there was nothing special about the first four grades. However that changes in legendary grade and above.
Legendary grade is the gate to divinity, this is where one gains the spark of divinity.* ' Divine spark? Wait don't I already have that? but that makes no sense.'
Ved read it again and it still said a divine spark is only possessed by those with legendary grade bloodlines or vessels.
However Ved only had heaven grade bloodline and already possesses a divine spark. He sighed, ' I'm becoming more of a freak aren't I?'
He turned to the next page. * On mythical grade, the divine spark becomes a divine ember, stronger and more abundant than a spark.
And the next and final known grade is the Divine grade. This is a grade only few beings have. Amongst the dragons and other divine races.
Only one in countless is born with a divine grade bloodline. In all of history, less than a 100 dragons and phoenix have been confirmed to be born or gained divine grade bloodline.
This is when the divine ember turned into a blazing flame, the divine flame. The increase in one's power is significantly stronger than the lower grades, whether it be body strength, essence quality, quantity or will volume.
It is also known that the difference in power grows the higher up in grades you go. This becomes even more obvious when you go from heaven grade to legendary grade due to gaining divinity.
The divine spark enhances your overall strength throughout the board. Infact, it can even weaken your opponents and makes any wounds you deal them harder to heal.*
' This is it, this is what Vermillion used, no wonder my regeneration didn't work as well as it should have.'
Then he remembered that he possesses this cheat code now and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Then he started reading about the ranks and realms. *There are nine rank and seven realms that are going to be mentioned here. The first three ranks are collectively known as the will nurturing realm.
This is where ones will is in it nascent form, barely able to effect the world around them. The only requirement to break through the first three ranks is accumulating sufficient energy.
However to break through to rank 4, things are a little different. Accumulating energy alone is no longer enough.
You need to condense your will to be strong enough to create soul sense and telekinesis, no matter how weak.
However doing this requires one to have a very dense will. It's possible to brute force it using more will instead, which is where the limit of bloodlines come into place.
And when you break through to rank 4 which is also known as will condensation realm, your will becomes dense enough to effect the world through three abilities, will transmission.
A form of telepathy. Telekinesis and soul sense, which allows you to create a rador around yourself.
The next rank, rank 5 is called Image Projection realm, as the name implies, in order to break through, one must condense their will into an image that best represent their beliefs or desires.
The density of one's will matter the most here, if your will is not dense enough then it would be incredibly hard to break through but not impossible since it was also possible to use more will to forcefully paint the image.
However that would require your grade to be incredibly high, at the very least, legendary grade. Most beings cannot break past this stage and are forever stuck.
After breaking through, then your image will fully condense. Rank 6, called image manifestation realm, is not much different.
After condensing your image enough to project it out into the world, you will need to condense it even further until it becomes tangible.
After that is the next rank. This is a milestone that has stopped many. Rank 7 is known as Law comprehension realm, as the name implies.
To break through, you must comprehend a law, unlike the previous realms, it was impossible to brute force this one by using more will.
Here you need to use your image to connect to the world, how strong the connection is depends on how strong your beliefs or desire are.
The stronger the connection, the easier it is to touch and grab laws using your image. It is only after you comprehend a law by atleast 5 percent that you can then break through.
The next realm, rank 8 is called Creation realm, here you must use your comprehended laws to create an ability called law arts.
After creating a rudimentary law art, you can then use it to attack the realm barrier and break through to rank 8.
Then in order to break through to rank 9, known as the Sovereign Realm. You must condense your laws and form a sigil.
A sigil is a representation of your true self, comprised of your deepest and most pure beliefs and desires, your laws and all of your abilities including your memories.
It is you as you are it, as long as the sigil exist, so will you. Ved turned to the next page and it talked briefly about the difference between Will density and volume.
* Will density is the strength of one's beliefs and desires, life experiences can also temper will, however it cannot be changed by bloodline grade of cultivation rank. Of your beliefs grow stronger, your will becomes denser and stronger.
If you beliefs waver, you will density lowers and grows weaker. However will volume is determined by cultivation rank and bloodline grade.
So regardless of who you are, if your ranks and grades are the same, your will volume will be relative to each other. Density determines how strong you will is.
While volume determines how much will you have.* The explanation was brief but it gave him a clear picture. Ved's own will was incredibly dense which is why he was able to match Pulse who was an entire rank above him when he was merely a rank 3.
Two weeks passed just like that, then one day Ved felt multiple powerful auras on the base of the mountain.
' Finally, they're here.' he closed the book he was reading and his body flickered and he disappeared.
