Awakening
On a silent night many sect elders sit in the night awaiting a prophecy that was foretold many generations ago by the great founder of each sect. It was foretold that there will be a starless night in the boundless sky in the Relentless Sky Realm, and then suddenly out of thin air there would be a single star shining with the color of red, then one by one the sky would light up with red stars.
" I don't even understand why we're waiting out here instead of doing closed door cultivation. It's more important to grow our strength than it is to listen to a fake prophecy." A sect elder said with a scowl.
" Now now Feng Huan, it was an order for us to come out by the current leaders of each of our sects" another sect elder interjected feeling as if his sect as personally attacked.
" Pfft if I was a sect leader I wouldn't be wasting my time on something as trivial as the stars."Feng Huan said smirking without a care in the world
'It will all change soon enough anyway' Feng Huan thought to himself with malicious intent.
Then a star lit up a ferocious, darker than blood red. Soon, the night was filled with this terrifying red.
Every Elder stood up with their jaws open, some screaming, some praying, just what would this prophecy bring? What changes will come? One of the elders even broke his cultivation base as he lost a bet that nothing would happen!
This is the night that Alvis Elvira was also born, a typical birth. However, the baby had red eyes..

8 Years Later
------------
Alvis Elvira was a young boy, he had long white hair that reached to his neck and red piercing eyes that looked as if it could suck the soul out of anyone who dare stare too long.
He was born into a Farmers family, poor and always hungry, immediately selling any crops finished in order to buy more low level pills and low quality spirit food to nourish Alvis. He was the hope of his family and the only child as his father was sterile after he was born.
Alvis was cultivating in his room like usual, hoping for some change. He's been cultivating ever since he was 3 however he hasn't made any progress, he hasn't even started on the path of Mortal Refining! However he has tempered his body to the 3rd level of Flesh Refining as a last ditch effort.
It was a known fact that body cultivating was simply too difficult to ever reach the apex with, the best body cultivator in the Relentless Sky Realm only barely broke past all the way to Flesh Refining 20 and has been stagnant for 20 years. Compared to the Soul Cultivators of his generation, he was way behind.
"I just don't understand, why can I not progress at all!?!" Alvis said, clearly frustrated and on the verge of tears.
His body was all beaten up by the other kids his age and many scars were apparent on his body from his body cultivation. Never did he want to go through what he did to himself again. In just a month he reached the 3rd level, but at what cost?
Alvis thought that maybe his cultivation method was flawed, he tried many famous poses and even tried breaking his cultivation and restarting but his cultivation wouldn't break no matter how hard he tried.
His cultivation method was the Grand Dao Opening, the most common of them all! The most widely known cultivator of this has only reached Golden Core 1 and he cultivated for 3000 years! It was all a common farmer could find though so he had to make it work. Somehow.
Knowing his base wouldn't change overnight, Alvis decided to body cultivate one last time, as it was something that was changeable.
'This is the last night I will body cultivate like this.' Alvis thought as he picked up a giant hammer and began to literally temper his body.
' No, I can't do this!' He was on the verge of passing out when he heard a sudden ding in his head.
*DING* (SYSTEM has acknowledged hosts efforts and has activated the Path Finder)
"System? Path Finder? What is this..." Alvis said as he slowly passed out from his pain.
