Chapter 12: Info Dump-2 (Mana & Weapons)


    But that was not the end. There are many more stages but the problem was when cultivation system was introduced many failed to grasp the strength.


    Where ves became the kings, the rulers became serf. Why? Since the rulers and many more ''mortals'' were not able to cultivate.


    But that problem was also solved by the genius. He introduced another system, another power, another technique.


    The ''word'' magic was then introduced. The concept of mana was then introduced. Another power beside qi was then introduced.


    Even if they were not able to cultivate qi they would cultivate mana.


    To cultivate mana one needed to form a nucleus what was known as core in the cultivation system.


    Once one formed a nucleus they have stepped into the Alpha stage.


    Manas were divided into many stages. The first stage was known as Alpha stage. Any stage in the mana system were divided into six steps.


    Toplete six steps one needed to for six triangles filled with mana in the nucleus.


    When six triangles are formed they would join together to be a star. Once a star is formed they would break through the next stage.


    Alpha stage equalled the power of the Basic stage in cultivation system that is the qi condensation and foundation establishment.


    Beta, Gamma, Delta stages were equal to Mortal, heavenly and divine core formation realms.


    The Spirit formation realm, Spirit maniption realm and Spirit synchronisation realms were the same as Epsilon, Zeta and Eta stages in mana system.


    The Nascent soul formation and Combat soul formation stages were equivalent to Theta, Iota and Kappa stages.


    Kappa stage simr to cultivation system was a major threshold. After that Lambda, Mu, Nu and Xi stages were simr to Minor saint, Dao king, Great saint and Dao emperor realms.


    The concept was same for all the realms just the application of power was different.


    As a result of the introduction of Mana the Violence was reduced. The wars stopped. The peace returned.


    But that was just the calm before the storm.


    The rest of the story is for another time...


    ***


    No matter what era, no matter what the concept was one thing which was needed throughout the history were Weapons.


    During the period of survival.


    During the period of negotiations.


    During the period of violence.


    As the concept of power had gone through evolution, so did the weapons.


    Weapons were like second arms for the warriors. The arms which can be sacrificed if need arises.


    The weapons used in the very beginning, the normal weapons are now named as mortal weapons.


    The first ''magic'' weapon which was made by the same genius to keep up with the cultivators were known as superior weapons. They wereter dubbed as earth weapons.


    Then came thebat weapons. Weapons generally used by cultivators below the Supremo realm.


    Holy weapons, the level of the sword where Kylo''s body is trapped in, is cut above the rest. Abat weapon needs many materials and needs to be nourished by superior qi for years to be upgraded to holy weapons.


    Above holy are the saint weapons. These weapons have their own sentients. In times of emergencies they can act on their own.


    Above saintes the Heavenly weapons. The level Kylo''s odachi was in. These weapons have existed for a long time. These weapons which survived over a long time have formed their own spirit.


    The strength of the spirits of these weapons far surpasses that of True supremos. They are like any other living beings can transform into human form and use their own weapon during fights.


    (Author note: like how Kylo is using the sword right now only within the cave though.)


    The next evolution of the weapon is known as celestial weapon. The spirits of these weapons can be regarded as ''true old monsters''


    Even in Kylo''s previous world celestial weapons were very very rare and wherever these weapons resided they were truly respected.


    It does not mean these weapons were much more stronger than Kylo. But these weapons have lived through a long era. The knowledge they have is more than Kylo or the likes had.


    (Author note: I initially nned to only introduce till heavenly weapon but then remembered Kylo joked in one chap of the ''Heaven Devourer'' being celestial weapon so here is the intro)


    Alright Next chapter Confrontation will continue:)
