Cultivation levels.
To make it easier for people to remember the various cultivation levels, I have decided to post them up here for ease of finding. What is written here is what the Mc himself knows about the cultivation levels, so I will update it as time goes on.
Cultivation levels.
3 Mortal Earth's, 3 Houtian Skies, 3 Xiantian Heavens: The start of cultivation, the majority of people in the universe are in this level, many of them forever stuck and unable to progress. Cultivating at this stage is very easy, as one really only needs to absorb enough Qi, strengthening and accustoming the body to Qi and the Laws.
Immortal Rebirth. Divided into Ascending Immortal, Soaring Immortal, and Transcended Immortal. One sheds their mortal shell and starts to truly embrace the Laws. One forms a seed, their Immortal Foundation, in their dantian and engraves both it and all their Qi with the laws one is cultivating. Once the immortal foundation has reached a saturation point, one must endure a lightning tribulation to step into the middle realm, the Soaring Immortal realm.
Earthly Deity. Divided into Early, Middle, and Late stage. One has transcended above embracing the Laws, slowly starting to control the Laws.
Heavenly Deity. Divided into Early, Middle, and Late stage. One has grasped full control over one or more laws, their bodies almost fully assimilating with the Laws.
Godking. Divided into Immortal Godking, Transcended Godking, and Primordial Godking. One has transcended above the Laws they are cultivating, fusing them together with other Laws and creating a brand new Law unique to them. As they have transcended the Laws they are cultivating, they are said to be immune to any attacks that contain the laws they are cultivating.
Empyrean Ruler.
Primeval Sovereign.
Universe Heart.

Body Cultivation. Written here is only what the Mc himself knows about body cultivation so it'll be updated in the future as he learns more. The Mc follows a rather special body cultivation path and it is that path which will be described here.
Blood Drop realm. Equal to the earliest stage of Qi cultivation. The cultivator must drain the blood, Qi, and flesh of countless cultivators and Demonic beasts to form a condensed drop of blood known as a Blood Heart. He must then absorb this Blood Heart and fuse it into his bone marrow, allowing it to produce stronger blood in the future.
Blood Puddle realm. Equal to the Immortal Rebirth realm, must absorb at least 10 Blood Hearts to enter this stage. The Blood Hearts will start strengthening the bones of the body, forming a tough and durable foundation for future cultivation. At this stage, the physical might and lifeforce of the body will sublimate and condense, forming a type of energy known as Monarch Essence. While not as versatile as Qi, it is far heavier and contains more might, it also grants the body cultivator a heightened regenerative ability, allowing him to quickly heal from most wounds.
Blood Lake realm. Equal to the Earthly Deity realm, the Blood Hearts start to strengthen the flesh and skin of the body, giving the body cultivator a body with the resilence of a deity.

Soul Cultivation. More realms will be added as they become relevant in the story.
Realized Soul realm. One has discovered the existence of their soul and managed to infuse it with enough Qi to allow it to materialize and even leave the body for a bit. As it equals the very first stages of cultivation, it only provides the cultivator with a minuscule amount of strength in the form of allowing their soul to directly attack the soul of others. But as this brings out their own soul and leaves it vulnerable, it is a very risky thing to do.
Law-Touched Soul realm. One has let their soul come into contact with the laws, absorbing a bit of their strength and using it to both strengthen and alter their soul. The strength gathered within the soul will at this point become so great that it will coalesce and morph into an ethereal type of energy known as Anima Essence, a type of energy that is well-suited for attacking ethereal things like souls but is not able to do much against physical things.
Law-Seeking Soul realm. The soul has stabilized further and strengthened itself, taking advantage of the laws it has absorbed to alter itself further. About one-third of the soul has been altered by the laws, increasing the density of the Anima Essence while bringing the soul one step closer to touching upon the source of the laws, the heavens.
