Cultivation Levels

"Father, you have come." Tain Jian immediately gets up as he rushes to his father.

"Looks like you have been especially waiting for me." Cheng Huan asked with a doting smile.

"Father knows me very well." Tian Jian gently repled as opposite to his normal behavior.

"Tell me, What do you want?" Cheng Huan asked as he knows unless Tian Jian wanted something, he wouldn't speak honeyed words.

Tian Jian blushed a little, then gently asked, "Father, I want you to ask about cultivation levels."

For a second, Cheng Huan was startled and then surprisingly asked, "At this age, you want to know about cultivation?" 

"Yes, father, I want to know, What is the cultivation and what is a mortal body and an origin body? I want to know all about it." Tian Jian firmly replied.

Seeing his kid's determination Cheng Huan had been gratified and decided to give him some guidance that he knows.

"Before I tell you about the cultivation, I will tell you about Origin Qi." Cheng Huan gently said and seriously continued, "Everywhere of this continent is filled with some kind of Qi, and we call this Origin Qi."

To his father's explanation, Tian Jian seriously nodded his head like a child who had been listening to stories.

Cheng Huan looked at his child and smiled satisfactorily, and continued, "Now, You know there is a kind of Qi called Origin Qi, But forget about that for some time," He said and slowly asked, "Have you ever seen a kind of wooden fan on the top of some of the houses of our village?"

"Yes, Father, I have seen plenty of them in our village, so what?" Tian Jian asked as he doubtfully replied.

"Have you ever wondered, Why do those fans sometimes stay still, slowly rotates, and fastly rotates? What is it making them rotate?" Cheng Huan asked mysteriously.

"What is there to answer? It is the wind making it rotate." Tian Jian immediately answered confidently.

"No, you are wrong! It's the power of the wind that making it rotate, and in all situations, the wind is there, but what makes them different is the power of the wind. At lower power, it rotates at low speed. At high power, it rotates at high speed. Sometimes the wind has not enough power so it can't rotate the fan." Cheng Huan said.

"You are right, father. It's not the wind, and it's the power of the wind that making it rotate." Tian Jian now got clarity.

"When you are born, you are born with a weapon soul bestowed by the heaven. So in your body from your birth, there is a weapon soul. You need the power to make that Weapon soul revolve in your body, but you don't have enough power to make it revolve." Cheng Huan continued with his explanation.

"When your body has enough power, then it will make your weapon soul one complete revolution. This stage is called Level- One mortal body. When The power in your body increases again, then It will make your weapon soul revolves two times faster than the first level, and it is the Level-Two mortal body. Like this, it will speed up to nine times faster than level one, and the last level is Level- Nine Mortal body." Cheng Huan explained.

"So father, there are nine levels in Mortal Body, and at every level, its revolution speed increases one time than the previous level." Tian Jian is enlightened.

"Correct." Cheng Huan.

"Father, In the case of the wooden fan, it is the wind power that is making it rotate, then what is It? making the Weapon soul revolve." Tian Jian asked.

"You have asked the right question, In our body, there is a blood qi, and it is making Weapon soul revolve. Blood Qi in our body produces some kind of energy with that weapon soul will revolve." Cheng Huan said.

"So father in my body there is a blood qi, but it is not enough to make my weapon soul revolve, so how can I increase my blood Qi?" Tian Jian immediately asked.

"You have grasped the crux of the problem, right if we want to increase our cultivation in Mortal Body Level, we need to increase our Blood Qi, and there are two methods for it." Cheng Huan said.

"What are those methods?" Tian Jian asked eagerly.

"The first method is simple, and all you need to do is simply take different types of origin materials like origin meat, pills, herbs, and plants. But in this method, you can only absorb up to five percent of their power, and it will only produce a little bit of blood qi, and it can only afford by rich and powerful families." Cheng Huan said with a sigh.

"I know, father, how can we villagers can afford so many Origin Materials. Father, what is the second method." Tian Jian asked. But Cheng Huan is surprised because many will be disappointed by this fact, But Tian Jian is not disappointed at all.

"The Second method is difficult, that is to train your body, and when you train your body in a particular manner, then your body will absorb more power from the Origin Materials. In This case, you may absorb up to the full power of the origin materials." Cheng Huan said.

"So that's the case, but father, how can I train my body?" Tian Jian asked.

"Actually, you have to practice some kind of techniques, and they are two types of techniques. One is Cultivation techniques, and the other one is battle techniques." Cheng Huan said.

"Father, what are the difference between these techniques?" Tian Jian asked.

"Both the techniques train the body, Cultivation technique train the body to absorb the Origin Qi, While Battle Technique train the body to release the Origin Qi. Cultivation Techniques increase our cultivation, while Battle Techniques help in a real battle, But our village doesn't have any cultivation technique, those are very valuable." Cheng Huan said with a sigh.

"But father, How can I increase cultivation if I don't have cultivation techniques?" Tian Jian asked in a worried manner.

"You don't have to worry in the first stages of the cultivation, it doesn't matter what type of technique you are using, and all you have to do is train the body. In the first stages of the cultivation, you are not storing any origin qi in your body, so any type of technique that trains the body will work." Cheng Huan said assuringly.

"So I can use battle techniques to train the body, which in turn helps me to increase the blood qi." Tian Jian said happily.

"You are right, and in the first stages of cultivation, battle techniques are more useful than the cultivation technique. The cultivation techniques in the first stages only help to train the body, and it doesn't have any moves to attack, so these are useless in a battle." Cheng Huan said.

"Cultivation techniques are more useful in later stages of cultivation." Cheng Huan added.

"Father, do these techniques have different levels like Weapon Soul?" Tian Jian asked.

"Yes, Both these techniques have nine tiers, while one is the lowest and nine is the highest, and our Village has Tier-Three battle technique, but none of us achieved full mastery in this technique." Cheng Huan said.

"Father, What is above Mortal Body level?" Tian Jian asked.

"Above mortal body is Origin Body Level." Cheng Huan said.

"Father, how to achieve this level?" Tian Jian.

"When I told you about that wooden fan, do you see? When it rotates at full speed, it starts to attract the dust particles in the surroundings. In the same way, when the weapon soul in our body reaches the peak of Level Nine mortal body, It will produce some circular force in our body, and that circular force will absorb origin qi into our body. This level is called Origin Body." Cheng Huan said calmly.

"Father, Does this Origin Body also have different levels?" Tian Jian.

"Yes, It has a total of six levels." Cheng Huan.

"Father, What are those six levels?" Tain Jian asked eagerly.

"Wait a minute."

After that, Cheng Huan left for a while and bought a Transparent bowl with soil in it.

"What do you see?" Cheng Huan asked while showing a transparent bowl.

"A Bowl with different types of soil." Tian Jian replied.

After Tian Jian's reply, Cheng Huan poured some water into the bowl.

"Now, do you see? When I poured water, it was only absorbed by the first layer of the soil, and the remaining types of soils don't change at all." Cheng Huan said mysteriously.

"Father, what are you trying to say?" Tian Jian asked confusingly.

"Compare your body with the bowl and the Origin Qi with water. When Your Body starts absorbing the origin qi, It won't directly enter your body. It will first enter your skin, then muscles, blood, five viscera, bone, and finally bone marrow, so altogether there are Six levels in Origin Body." Cheng Huan said.

"Now I understood, father." Tian Jian said.
