Sheng Ji Realm System
On the Sheng Ji Starlands, cultivators prove their path through tribulations. They must endure three thousand tribulations to reach the summit. The realms are divided into eleven heavenly tiers:
1. Body-Shattering Realm (the physical body is reforged)
2. Spirit-Consolidation Realm (spiritual awareness is refined)
3. Soul-Transformation Realm (the soul leaves the body)
4. Sky-Walking Realm (soaring freely through the heavens)
5. Flow-Suppressing Realm (suppressing the earth's ley lines)
6. World-Treading Realm (master of a domain)
Beginning with the seventh realm, cultivators are granted titles:
7. King of One Lifetime (such as "Heaven-Burning Flame King")
8. Emperor of Ten Lifetimes (obtaining the imperial crown after surviving ten tribulations)
9. Venerable of a Hundred Lifetimes (reversing cause and effect)
10. Saint of a Thousand Lifetimes (creation power)
11. Heavenly Emperor of Ten Thousand Lifetimes (ruling a plane, unique throughout eternity)
