Renewed Life
The sun begins to descend from the sky, it casts a warm light across the lush landscape that is filled with plants and trees. The sounds of the air flowing resounded throughout the day, the animals roaming and beasts lurking.
The smell of sweet fragrance and aroma of the sweets flowers created an heavenly sense. The gently breeze of the wind blows away the leaves creating an intoxicating tranquility.
In the midst of the breathtaking nature, a man in his early twenties walked along the pathway. He enjoyed every moment of the walk and continued up the road until he saw a hill.
Aetherion went to his favorite part, a hill that allows himself to see the very world itself, with a huge tree that he always layed on. On this day Aetherion layed as usual but an unknown force descended onto the world causing a sudden change in many parts but none in some.
Under the shade of a large tree layed Aetherion, in plain attire, at six feet and three inch, with a balance build. His black hair flowed as the air moved along. His dark eyes were a astonishingly sight as he woke up with a jolt.
He looked around confused and bewildered, until a sudden surge of information came in his mind. Receiving fragsments of memories that wasn't his.
"I see…. HaHahaha! Finally! At last, no more… no more darkness!"
The man was exhilarated, now free from the darkness depts of the void. Now given a chance to be free and to live once again. A "Renewed Life" he took control over Aetherion body but he fought back for control.
The unknown force took control of Aetherion body but his own soul pushed back for control. So they fought hard until a strange force came and they both merge. Now being one whole new entity.
Two soul, one body. The man who was trapped in the void and a unknown man. After a sudden unknown change, the two soul fused creating a new soul. Aetherion looks around for a bit taking in his surrounding while fully merging together.
After sorting out all the memories, Aetherion, now deciding to make a decision to survive in this new world and not just live in this isolated place, with the information he currently has, he recaps himself in his mind.
The person he merged with was a orphan named Aetherion in the world called Celestoria, a large world filled with cultivators, magicians, beasts, demons, mythical beings and a myriad of race.
He was born in a small part of the world, abandoned at birth and only survived due to an adult pitying him and taking him in. Until the age of five in which his only family member disappeared, living a life full of misery and suffering, yet he maintained his life by stealing, working and living in the forest that was his home.

Until the age of five in which his only family member disappeared, living a life full of misery and suffering, yet he maintained his life by stealing, working and living in the forest that was his home.
The other person he merged with was an unknown man with almost no memories of his past beside his last name being Eclipsius, stuck in the void and yearning for freedom. Only when something happened in the void that allowed him to escape did he have a chance to return to the realm of the living.
The world is divided in four continents being the Central Continent, The Forbidden Continent, Demonic Continent, and the Mystic Continent. Although these continents are divided now due to a war countless eons ago, with barely any information it remains a mystery.
He is currently in the Mystic Continent and in a remote isolated region of the continent, being isolated from most cultivators and beings. With almost no sects, or known powers surrounding the place. As the closest city was 35,500 miles away. Only remote villages and town existed around those areas.
The man, now fully integrated into his new life stood up, overlooking the world around him.
In the distance, the blue horizon stretches out endlessly, in shades of blue that blend into the sky above. White clouds drift across the heavens, casting playful shadows over the landscape below.
Aatherion stretched as he open up his arm to let the wind hit his body, feeling the air. Announcing to the very Heaven itself.
"I don't know why or how but since I have a new life ahead of me. I… Aetherion Eclipsius shall strive to live in this world! Unbounded by anything. I shall enjoy this life to the fullest! Even the heaven won't shake my will!"
After speaking his thoughts, Aetherion jumped and slid down the hill, with the fusion of the two. He had a new goal in mind. To become the strongest and live life to the fullest. Therefore he ran to his house in the middle of the forest, passing all the bush and trees, startling the animals.
After running across the forest for a couple minutes, he reached his house. Standing there was a wooden house, not too big or too small. A medium size house that was near waterfall.
Aetherion open his door and rushed toward his rooms and opened his drawer. Inside was a book that was quite damaged. On it, only the title was '-Ethereal Void Sca-' part of the title was damaged so he couldn't find much about it.
Before the fusion, Aetherion dared not to try it out and didn't know what it was, but after the merge, although he didn't have much memories of the other soul, merging allowed him to view some memories that was hidden.
Now he knew it was a cultivation method and this was his start to ascending to the peak. He browsed through the book and learned more about the process of cultivation and the levels and ranks in this world. Although parts of the books were destroyed so he couldn't find much.
The cultivation of these world has fifteen cultivation realms. With each realm having ten minor levels, with the first to third being initial stage, fourth to sixth being middle stage, seventh and ninth being late stage, and the tenth being the peak stage.
The realms that exist in the book manual are Qi Refinement, Foundation, Golden Core, Soul Wandering, Soul Condescending, Nascent, Ensoulment, Spirit Ascension, Spirit Formation, and Void Transformation.
There were also ranks of artifacts and items. Which all were about the same. The ranks are Mortal Grade, Spirit Grade, Imperial Grade, Earth Grade, and Heaven Grade. With each having a grade. These are Lower Grade, Medium Grade, Upper Grade, and Ultimate Grade.
The Ethereal Void Manual is to devouring everything in its path allowing all possible force to flow into one body and strengthen it.
Once consume it will strnehth all attribute from spiritual attributes to physical attribute.
The first stage of the method is to devour and then create a dark sphere in one soul, allowing one to have a miniature black hole that shields one soul. The dark sphere, also known as Void Sphere allows one to take in all form of energy or other form and used as fuel to boost one power. Unlike normal cultivators where they have limits in gathering energy from the universe itself, with the dark sphere, one can devour almost anything without limitations.
After completely reading through the cultivation manual throughly. Aetherion sat down on his bed and closed his eyes. Getting ready to start using the Ethereal Void Manual to cultivate.
In just a couple seconds, Aetherion felt like he was in a new world. He sense the energy from the universe around him, and although it was pitifully low, he didn't care about that. After sensing the energy around him, the energy swarmed into his body. Unknownest to Aetherion, the cultivation manual he happen to learn wasn't just a normal one but one from a higher realm.
Large amount of energy were devoured by Aetherion as he began to undergo a huge transformation. The energy flowed throughout his body and the uniqueness of the cultivation method utilized the energy in a different way then other methods.
The energy began to fill his whole body up, strengthening his body, organs, cells and every corner of his body, be it outer or inner.
With the Ethereal Void Manual more energy swirling into Aetherion body, filling him with vitality and strength, including empowering his spiritual attributes, his reactions time increased, his mental strength, his soul strength, and other spiritual attributes.
After a couple minutes of cultivating and devouring all the energy using the Ethereal Void Manual. Aetherion sensed something new in him. A small dark sphere emerges in his soul. The more he consume the essence of the universe itself, the more it became larger and complete.
After another moment, a burst of energy released from Aetherion as he started to breakthrough at a rapid pace.
Qi Reinfinment Stage One.... Stage Two….. Stage Three... Four….. Six….. Nine….. and finally he reached the peak realm of the Qi reinfinment stage. He stood up from his bed and clenched his hands, feeling the power coursing through his own body. His life force increased exponentially as he utilized the Energy and starts to float. Quickly he went out and flew up in the sky, feeling a sense of excitement.
He landed onto the ground and went up toward a tree that toward over 50 meters. He punched the tree, creating a massive hole in the tree, just from his physical strength alone he could destroy a building if not more.
Aetherion smiled and then looked at the horizons, looking back at his house he went back in and grabbed all his stuff.
After making sure he had everything he starts to walk out of the forest. Leaving his house he walked along the path, then jumped onto the trees, jumping from trees to trees. With his new profound powers, he sprinted out of the large forest he has lived in for the past few years.
