A might blaze, one with flowing white flames. Silent, pure, and hot, a fire that devoured everything in the Heavens, and turned it into its own domain, the now strongest purifying flame, the Heavenly Flames.

"Ling, this flame feels nice." Angel happily bathed in the flames. 

"That's because its core basically stems from your existence. Hmmm, now that I think about it, your existence proves that anything from the Primordial Essences can create anything and anyone. Well, your existence proves how Suzhen was created."

Everything had a reason if one digs deep enough. While Angel was enjoying herself with the flames, he who was left on his own began cultivating his qi. As though it was the most sensible thing to do, Wang Ling brought out everything he had with him.

The room was enveloped in a veil of thick qi, "Angel, can you control the fire qi in the room? Don't let even a single wisp out, I'm going to hammer through the Sixth Rank of cultivation."

"Okay, but you take too long to play with me when you close your eyes so don't take away the flames, okay?"

"Yes, yes, you can play with them."

"Yaaay!" Angel happily obliged Wang Ling's orders and began isolating the room with her impeccable control of elemental qi. With this, nothing will be lost. Angel was becoming better and better at assisting Wang Ling, though she remains acting like a child.

While Angel was playing, Wang Ling was hammering through the sixth rank of cultivation, which was also known as Immortal Nirvana.

This Era has a total of Nine Cultivation Ranks which acts as a realm.

The first five Realms were as follows:

Qi Reinforcement — Qi Cloaking — Qi Refinement.

These were the first three realms; they revolve around getting used to the flow of qi in the Universe. 

Worldly Manifestation — Mortality Severance

These two were the latter half and both had something to do with connecting to the world in order to no longer have the excess 

[The First to Five paths of Cultivation is all about the preparation to creating a soul devoid of taint. Strengthen the Internal Organs, the Body, the Veins, the Soul, and then connect to the World through their qi. Lastly, cultivators would severe their Mortality, meaning it is a preparatory realm that would allow them to cut off their connection to the Mortal World.

[Soul is the inner construction of a body, it is the blueprint and the controller. My body is beginning to mature in the direction of my original form, thus further proving this way of thought. But, does this mean that the first five cultivation realms are nothing more than the preparatory stages? But, for what?] 

Wang Ling questioned and then remembered that the

Wait, the Immortality Nirvana Realm again erasing the chance of becoming an Abyssal Demon. Does that mean, the entirety of this Era's Cultivation Path was created to combat the Abyssal Demons? Does that mean they created an entirely new cultivation path in a few years just to combat the Abyssal Demons? Isn't that… impossible?]

In the past Era, rather, since the start of cultivation, the goal had always been to lengthen one's lifespan and reach everlasting life. That end had long been reached since Immortality was opened, and God Realm was there to command the Laws of the Universe.

Cultivation was already perfect, and its path had long been established. The Immortal Realms and God Realm were the final stages in a Cultivator's life, but everything changed when the Emperor of Death announced war to the Universe.

Like what Wang Ling did to the Celestial Spirit Realm all those millennia ago, he did to the Universe, and at a much bigger scale. He mixed the Immortal, Godly, and Spirit Qi, polluting the flow and shaking up the established law.

Qi deviation occurred, leading to the death of Gods and Immortals, only Primordials and the Realm outside the Universe survived this event.

But the ordeal was not over. The change the Emperor of Death caused cultivation to no longer be a viable path. Many who retained their strength lost hope, as their powers quickly diminished with every fight against the Demons.

But Scholars rose and a new path was created. Using the previous path as the building blocks, this new path created to combat a Universal Threat that was the Emperor of Deaths and the Abyss itself.

Cultivation was no longer just a way to lengthen one's lifespan, but a way to avoid becoming an enemy. This was good and all, but, since Wang Ling learned about the fact about the new cultivation path, he had been wondering about its credibility.

An entire Cultivation Path from Mortality to Godhood cannot be forged in mere decades or even centuries. 

[A cultivator spends millennia just to reach Immortality, so, how come a path to Godhood can open in a matter of centuries?] slowly, as Wang Ling cultivated, a question appeared to keep him busy.

Silently as Wang Ling brought out his four Heavenly Rings, Wang Ling contemplated for the truth. He tried seeking an answer with logic. Time passed, and with it, came more and more ideas. A theory was built.

[The Abyss had existed long before I and Xue awakened, there should be Scholars who had been fighting against them since then. Hmm, if that is the case, then, why did it take them so long to introduce it to the world? Wait, if the idea of the Abyssal Demons existing right after the creation of the Celestial Spirit Realm, that might explain how a cultivation path was created so quickly.]

A starting point opened, for him to dwell upon.

[Watching their Gods gets turned into enemies must have been hell, so, did this cultivation path already existed in theory long before the Emperor of Death appeared? With the qi so muddle with so much energy that it allowed them to easily mold the new path to the current era, then, it might be possible to introduce a new path.

[No, they should have tried before, but the established truth could be easily overturned thus, the only time it appeared was when it was finally needed… which meant this cultivation path long existed before everything existed!]

Wang Ling opened his eyes, everything around him had already turned to dust. He turned to the left and saw Angel looking at him with lazy eyes, "The flames can't turn to any animal other than a snake. But it can form other things like swords and wings though. I think you can use that."

"That's good to know Angel, good job, so how long was I cultivating?"

"There had been nine cycles so one week and three days." Angel pointed outside where everything was dark.

"So, it's night?" Wang Ling said and returned his attention to Angel who was by his side waiting. Wang Ling placed his hand on its head, "Good job, Angel, thank you for your work."

"Hehe." Angle giggled as she moved around the room.

Wang Ling opened the door to his room and found that it was only Chang Ping in the living room.

"Ah, Master, you are finally out. It seems like you didn't even reach the pinnacle of Mortality Severance."

"It would appear that the pool of my qi subsequently improved. The resources I gained from the Tomb were already reduced to dust. But I did learn the truth about the Cultivation so I guess that's a win for me."

"Congratulations then, Master." Chang Ping had grown accustomed to Wang Ling's ridiculousness, "I have some spare resources with me, do you wish to use them? With your current state, you shouldn't implode by their purity."

"That would be useful, thank you. Wait, where are the other four, are they resting in their rooms?"

"Oh, them, they left to clean up someone with an unsavory vocabulary and unchecked arrogance. You know, the usual arrogant too narrow viewed nouveau riche who don't know any better."

"Oh, does it have anything to do with the one I dealt with when we were checking in? Is it a brother?"

"Yes, she had a brother from one of the Three Immortal Sects." 

"Knew it." Wang Ling laughed.

"He arrived three days after the incident and demanded from your presence." 

"So, what did you do?"

"Qinyang beat him up after losing a coin toss. They are dealing with the father of the two."

"Is that so, anyway, I haven't seen your progress in the Blood Seeking Sword, come on, show me where you are at the moment."

"Yes, Master, oh yeah, I just realized it, but does the Blood Seeking Sword have a connection with your past-past life?"

"It does, now, let us begin."

Wang Ling trained Wang Ling that night, several hours later the four arrived. 

Seeing their exasperated image, he asked, "The Father cursed and a Grandfather appeared to try and settle the matter?"

"…how did you know that?" the twins asked.

"Experience, I've dealt with thousands of such people before. Oh yeah, if you're already on the grandfather, expect an Ancestor. Don't look too down, at least, now we have a way to pass the time, right?"

The four looked at Wang Ling seating on the couch with a leisure expression and just decided to believe him.

Four days later, an Ancestor did arrive outside the Inn demanding their presence.

Wang Ling saw this transpire and looked at the old man floating in the air, "Told you so." He said to Qinyang and the others who were already in the process of doing a Coin Toss.

Qinyang loss.
