Earth—after four billion years of silence and evolution—changed forever on 1 January 2026.
That day, the atmosphere trembled. Invisible particles descended from the void, merging with the air, land, and oceans. Scientists all over the globe detected strange fluctuations. They named this unknown force—Qi Energy.
At first, humanity was skeptical. But soon… the impossible happened. A starving beggar absorbed Qi unconsciously and crushed iron with bare hands. A dying old man inhaled Qi and regenerated his decaying organs.
By absorbing Qi, ordinary people could cultivate—their bodies strengthened, lifespans extended, and eventually, they gained abilities that defied science.
The dream of immortality and godhood was now real.

But with power came chaos.
Criminals, dictators, and greedy individuals began slaughtering innocents. Countries collapsed overnight. In just a year, humanity's order was torn apart.
To stop the destruction, every nation united. A global council was formed—The Cultivation Association. Scientists, philosophers, and even novel authors worked together to research cultivation. At last, they designed a universal system to categorize power—the Cultivation Realms.

The Cultivation Realms of Earth
1. Qi Refraining Realm (1–9 levels) – The beginning. Mortals absorb Qi into their body, strengthening bones, muscles, and blood.
2. Foundation Establishment Realm (1–9 levels) – Cultivators refine their Qi channels and awaken their spiritual roots.
3. Core Realm (1–9 levels) – Qi condenses into an inner core, vastly increasing strength.
4. Golden Core Realm (1–9 levels) – The core shines with golden brilliance, allowing superhuman feats.
5. Nascent Soul Realm (1–9 levels) – A spiritual soul is born inside, independent of the body.
6. Soul Formation Realm (1–9 levels) – The soul merges with Qi, becoming unshakable.
7. Void Realm (1–9 levels) – Cultivators sense the void, stepping beyond mortal limitations.
8. Tribulation Realm (1–9 levels) – Heavenly tribulations descend. Success means power, failure means death.
9. Body and Soul Integration (1–9 levels) – Flesh and spirit unite, achieving harmony.
10. Mahalaya Realm (1–9 levels) – The final limit of Earth's cultivation path.
Beyond this, one transcends Earth itself and ascends to The Nine Heaven World.
