The people of this world are caught up in endless turmoil. They cultivate the truth and train their qi only to break free of the world's shackles and transcend the mortal realm...
The cultivation stages in this world are broadly divided into two realms: the Spirit Realm and the Burning Realm. The Spirit Realm has eight stages, collectively known as the Eight Steps to Heaven: Spirit Induction, Spirit Gathering, Spirit Transformation, Spirit Division, Spirit Shattering, Spirit Destruction, Spirit Dissipation, and Spirit Void.
The realm that follows is the Burning Realm. As the saying goes, "The Burning Realm has three stages": Earthly Burning, Terrestrial Burning, and Heavenly Burning.
Legend has it that those who break through the Heavenly Burning stage can shatter the barriers of time and travel through space and time. This is even more astonishing than the widely known "shattering the void"!
