10 Good Morning (part 3)

The Mist-man found out a lot of things when he was meditating. The first one is the levels of cultivation after the primal daoist stage. After the tribulations, one will become an earth immortal. This is where cultivators (#1) will acquire their divine sense. Their power will increase by at least tenfold. The next realm is the sky immortal realm, this is the realm where the cultivators gain the ability to fly using their qi unless they have an art that allows them to fly. Then they will face another tribulation. The tribulation upon entering the world immortal realm.

The 3 paths' tribulation will differ with one another. For the martial artists(see #1), their tribulation will test their resolve and will when it comes to their dao and cultivation, an illusionary world will be shown to them, they will be trapped in there until they remember who they really are and devote themselves to their main dao. If they failed their tribulations, they will stay in that illusionary realm and die with it after it ends. For the warriors, their body will combust in black flames. They have to endure said flames for 3 days and 3 nights as it will refine all of the daos marked on their body. After that, the refined substance will converge and turn into the mark of their main dao. A sword for the dao of the sword, a symbol of infinity for the dao of time, a timeline mark that has 3 branches for the dao of destiny etc. For the mages, their tribulations are a bit more special. They will also be brought into an illusionary world. The heavens shall test their knowledge and prowess in accordance to the dao they have. They will be stuck in a spot unless they have a spell to teleport or anything of the same sort. They will be stuck there for 3 days and 3 nights defending from waves after waves of monsters, cultivators, warriors, and mages. They can only use the spells they have learned or discovered, if they can't handle the waves of enemies, then it is their fate to be buried inside the illusionary world.

The moment that they have successfully faced their tribulation, they will enter the earth immortal realm. The true start of the path to power. The advancement of realms from there will not only depend on the amount of energy inside their body, but it will also depend on their understanding of their respective daos. As the mist-man is thinking about it, it will be quite long.

After the Earth Immortal realm there are other realms of power namely:

Sky Immortal- The ability to fly using the laws will be available

World Immortal - The ability to travel to other worlds will manifest. Reached by condensing your own dao into a pellet or orb inside your dantian. Then coat it with a heavenly dao of the chaos world

True God-Reached by perfectly fusing your dao and the heavenly dao that was coating it. It might look simple but it is a very hard thing to do. The heavenly dao will not fuse with a dao that is not on its level. You need to gain insight into your own dao and make it reach the level of a heavenly dao.

Elder God- Reached by breaking the pellet with your dao. In order for you to do this, you have to surpass the level of the heavenly dao that you used in breaking through the True God realm. This shall also remove the shackles one has that is connecting them to their respective chaos worlds.

World God- The creation of a dao seed by using the chaos energy from the prime essence is the way to break through to this realm.

Samsara Daolord-Making the dao seed bloom will make you reach this level. Creating a dao tree will determine how powerful you are.

Eternal Emperor-The heaviest and most dangerous trial in every step of the way. The daomerge. The daomerge in layman's terms is for you to make your dao tree bloom even further into a flower of eternity.

Autarch- Using your own dao as the base, you will fuse it with other daos that are a level lower than your main one.

Chaos Lord- there are two ways to become a chaos lord. One is being the first one to break through into an Omega Autarch, an autarch that has a perfect dao as the main dao. The other is to bind a chaos world to oneself.

Chaos Emperor- having 10 Chaos verses with each different daos to fuse and empower your own dao. Basically owning 11 chaos verses and fusing them all to your main dao.

Godking- having 10 Daos at the Chaos emperor level support your main dao. Creating a chaosverse based on your own daos will mark you as a peak Godking level

Incarnation Of the Dao- When even the reality you live in can't offer any more to further your own dao, the reality you live in will give you one final test. If you managed to pass that test, reality will break a piece of it and give you its control. That piece is your dao that managed to surpass the reality it is in. Anything, as long as it has to do with your dao, can be controlled by you.

One thing people should be careful about is this. No matter how specific or dumb the dao one has, never underestimate it. Someone could carry the dao of hair. Before you make fun of it, the daoist of hair could have already invaded your body and meridians and trashed it all. Someone could carry the dao of flowers. They could turn you into a true cultivation ingredient for their own dao if you make a mistake in insulting them.

The incarnation of the dao is believed to be the apex of cultivation. Of course none of the lower worlds now of its existence. Even Chaos Lords' existence is known only to select powerhouses in the higher realms.

The mist-man is now contemplating these realms of power. He didn't through any of them. How could he? He had a higher cultivation level than the incarnation of the dao. In fact, his level of power can't be on the same scale as the others.

"Enough of that." Says the mist-man to himself. He turns his attention to the golden thread that is attached to him. The thread stretches towards the sky. The end of which can't be seen. A golden thread is basically a red string of karma but stronger and a lot more important. This thread signifies that somewhere out there, someone is connected to him by fate and they will have to see each other, one way or the other.

Of course, with his level of power, he can just cut it off and be done with it. Which he did. He raised his hand and swing it towards the thread, immediately cutting it off from him. Before it was cut through, he sent a message towards the other end of it.

He then looks back at Razzeroth. "What to do with you?" He thinks to himself. He now owns Razzeroth something. "But if I help him, he'll become a fated one." Something he doesn't want to associate with.

"You will really become one. Hmmmm. Why couldn't you have been a chosen one instead" the mist man is now holding the bridge of his nose as he thinks about Razzeroth, the original owner of the face.

=================

(A reality far far away)

A beautiful woman was just floating around the void. She is flying around aimlessly with a bored face and a slight pout. Her kimono just flowing behind her. It was a weird kimono as there are things floating inside of it.

"I haven't learned anything this past few chaos cycles. I guess no one is discovering any new daos.*sigh*" she sadly said. If anyone was around the time she said it, they would have puked blood. She speaks about daos like they are nothing but apples ready for picking. But who could blame her?

The floating woman is "The Dao". Reality is made out of three main things. Reality itself, chaos and the dao. These three things have special interaction and/or relationship with one another. In order to have balance, in reality, there needs to be a yin and yang.

The woman has yin and the other yang. Then those two will share the three things for themselves. The woman became "The dao" and the man was reality. What about chaos? If chaos merged with the woman, the dao would be in chaos, different laws would change on the daily, chances of being an ant to a god because of enlightenment in the dao in a single day is possible. So chaos can only go to reality. If we see it in a way, chaos is the mind, reality is the body. Reality is limiting chaos in a way in order for it to not go too far. While the Dao is the road the body is walking in.

Now back to the woman, her being the dao itself, there is almost nothing she can't learn. If someone or something discovered a dao, she would know of it, and train it to the apex. But no matter how hard she tries, the dao of reality and the dao of chaos can only be learned to the dao incarnation level. She deduced years ago that either someone already reached its apex or those two daos is just incompatible with her.

While she was thinking about it, she felt a pulse. A pulse of power that signifies that something is coming. She looked at the place where it came from and got shocked. A string, a thread, a golden thread is connecting her towards where the pulse came from. A golden thread that usually connects two souls that should find each other.

She was planning on just teleporting to that place when the thread was cut. She was even more shocked when she heard a voice. "Good Morning my other half, I'll explore a bit before I come and meet you." Then the thread was cut off.

She pouted her mouth," Nobody orders me, I won't wait for you, I'll come for you." As she was planning to do so, she stopped. The third shock came. Realities, in general, don't have a sequence or order of appearance, but they are, most of the time, static. Her eyes widened, the past arrangements of realities have never been changed since the creation of the first reality. Now, they are all jumbled up like someone just picked a handful and threw them all down.

"Reality and chaos, in one body, my supposed partner, so you have wakened up? I'll get you for this." She said with a mischievous smile.
