Sword Domain
A Sword Domain is Described as a state where one achieves the ability to turn the world around them into a separate space, existing outside time and space, it is an extension of one's own will and training, achieved after someone reaches the pinnacle of mortal swordsmanship, going beyond it, even a hundred Cultivators, of an equal realm or lower, would not match a single immortal rank swordsman.
A Sword Domain is never the same as another person's Sword Domain, even if they overlap when it comes to the Intent they have. Two people with the Color Sword Intent would use it differently depending on the location they exist in.
If one were in the Holy Tianyun Empire, they would cause themselves to bleed, an eternal stream of blood coating their blade to enhance the blade's sharpness and prove their loyalty. While one from the Marou Dynasty would siphon the blood from every enemy they killed, making them stronger the more enemies they took down, because each step they took was another way forward, to innovate the path they followed.
A Sword Domain is the extension and embodiment of their very Intent; it is as if it created a separate reality of an unknown side from the inside, due to Non-Euclidean Geometry. Yet from the outside, it appears small. A Sword Domain can manifest, as stated before, as vastly different, even when the Intent is the same.
The one from the Tianyun Empire would form a Domain covered in blood, perhaps even a moon with a complete Blood-red coating, the trees dead, leaking dry Blood. While the one from the Marou Dynasty would be a battlefield of scattered bodies, swords planted into the ground as the blood from each body goes to the one who made it.
A Sword Domain is the Final Move one can do using their Sword Intent, until one Comprehends Past even that level. And Reaches Past the Sage Rank. A Sword Domain is a show of expertise in the weapon used, be it anything, though it is named the Sword Domain because the majority are those who use a Sword.
Comprehension
Comprehension is the very basis for developing techniques and further cultivation. Comprehension has a baseline; people may start at different levels, but the highest one can be born as is of the 5th Level, Recognized as an Extraordinary Genius.
Comprehension never stays stagnant; change requires the person themselves to change. The higher the Comprehension, the faster they understand how to make techniques and even use others' techniques simply by viewing them a few times. Comprehension at the First level is the average person's, in Gaia, the name of the Planet, which means The Intelligibility of the World. Something which cannot be understood. The Intelligence there is decent.
A person with the First Level Intellect can discover and create techniques as well, though it will take them longer than most people above them, unless those above them are using their Intelligence for something else. Comprehension doesn't just mean making something new; it means understanding and grasping new concepts or old ideas. It also gives those who are more intelligent an edge in a specific area they know better.
Comprehension is also used every day to repair and improve things. Of course, Comprehension is harder to grow the lower you are in it. At the First Level, it may take a decade to reach the Second Level, because the gap is large.
Still, the reward is larger: not only does it take less time to develop new techniques, understand techniques, or even understand anything in the normal world with enough context, but it also makes it easier to climb to a higher Comprehension Level. Though the Difficulty begins increasing once more after they reach the Sixth Level of Comprehension.
Stages of Comprehension
Level One - The Average Person, Anyone can be At this, including people in the highest realms though unlikely, They may take decades to master their own created technique and refine it.
Level Two - Considered Scholars, or Above Average, they are faster at the making of abilities, the gap between it and Level One is considerable, but not impossible. They take up too a few years to a single decade to make a technique. They also are able to understand techniques faster.
Level Three - Gifted in their Intelligence, they are beyond anything 'Average', Their intelligence allows them to make techniques in years. Their mastery over their own techniques are evident as they take a great deal of time doing so.
Level Four/Five - Considered Geniuses, their Exceptionally Intelligent they are able to make Techniques during battle if in dire need to do so, and outside of battle take weeks, if not months to make their own techniques, the gap between them and level Three is larger than Two and One.
Level Six - Extraordinary Geniuses, They stand in a level beyond Geniuses, taking a few weeks to a single month to master a technique, and make one of their own. They also love to share their own knowledge as they find it incredibly important.
Level Seven - Unknown.
Realms
The Sitra Achra - The Side of the World which is Inverted. It is incomprehensibly below every other world. It is where people believe all evil, Demonic beings, and (Dragons) originate from. Of course, Dragons are purely biological. But that doesn't stop people. The Sitra Achra is not a place anyone wishes to go to; it is considered a punishment to even get close to it, because it has its own system of energy which is completely separate from Mana, though entities that do have Mana are seen as 'Anomalous' and completely devoid of their energy, though they are killed off incredibly quickly.
This world is seen as a hell and is also incredibly hidden and Illusive. The Sitra Achra has an innumerable amount of universes, each one specifically made for any soul evil enough to be sent here by those of the Immortal Real. Each is tailored to a person yet infinite in size; the entities here are kept in a place where they can look inside others because they exist in a plane beyond the normal person. Yet all these worlds exist in a plane lower than all other ones.
Departed Tranquility - Though no real name is given in Gaia for the Afterlife, they do bury the dead, even those who are cultivators, bury the dead, be it a human or enemy, or even a Dragon they had killed. The body is buried and let to pass on peacefully, even when the Church wishes for Dragons to be kept away from and left alone because of their 'Demonic Energy' people who have grown up burying the dead, be it an enemy or friend, they are left to rest in tranquility and peace, there is no gift given because they do not need it, they are eternally within a place where they can't be harmed or affected.
The Dead which reside here are not here because they were great heroes, but because they lived their lives to the fullest, hoping someone who is on the verge of death with no way to come back to reach the Departed Tranquility is considered a Blessing and will help you as well during Samsara.
The Spiritual Plane - Separate from the Spiritual World, this is where every Mortal Soul resides. It is accessed by those of the Soul Formation and beyond the Cultivation Realm. Few people can truly go inside and touch any soul there from the Mortal World. It is where Shamans of the old times had contacted spirits, being guided to succeed.
[External Effect - Samsara]
[Unknown Effects - Information Integrity Degraded]
[Time till Information is Recovered - Chapter 100]
The Mortal World - Elaborated on more. The Mortal World is the place where all beings not bound by rules and systems are made. Cultivation, Mana, all of it comes from the higher world. The Mortal World is an Infinite Expanse for its own world. Given an Infinite Amount of Stars and Galaxies, yet still spread out within the Universe. A Universe may 'Die', yet it will also be left to a 'God' To be replenished and reforged.
The Mortal Realm is a generalized name for the entire Mortal Cosmos. Representing the Majority. The Mortal World contains an innumerable amount of Universes, be it a world which has no abilities, no magic or Cultivation, Nothing. Or it could be a world full of darkness and suffering, where hope is a foreign concept. Currently, the 'World' or Realm that Caelus and his friends and Enemies reside in.
The Spiritual World - Tell me... Do you want it? :3 (If enough do, then I'll edit this)
The Immortal World - Yeah, no.
