The Wind Rises in the West

A palace eunuch and a little white flower (a blade of grass) depend on each other for survival in an uplifting story about becoming a god and taking human form, one step at a time. The focus is on companionship.

[Levels of Cultivation]

Mortals (people of the martial world): third-rate, second-rate, and first-rate experts. These are all acquired-level experts. Only after breaking through the acquired level can one reach the innate level.

Cultivators: Innate Realm (the threshold of immortal cultivation). Absorbing spiritual energy to circulate and transform internal energy into spiritual power brings the first stage of shedding one's mortal shell and changing one's bones.

Martial Saint Realm (three stages)

Martial God Realm (six stages). Only by breaking through the Martial God Realm can one ascend to the Upper Realm and become a half-immortal. Half-immortals are not true immortals.

True Immortal Realm: Earth Immortal and High Immortal, eighteen stages each.

True God Realm: Heavenly God and High God, eighty-one stages each.

[The Three Realms]

The Mortal Realm, the Upper Realm (also called the Immortal Realm, where half-immortals cultivate), and the Divine Realm (the true home of the gods).

[Peoples]

Mortals, demons, immortals, and ghosts.
