The first thing I saw, before I was even born, was a scene from a large beast in the sky. The beast looked like an dragon with big antlers and fur not scales on his body. The antlers were golden and were risen to the sky, then the antlers produced purple stripes and on top of each of the antlers ends, there were a total of twelve of them, a whirpoll formed and the whole energy of Heaven and Earth in this area was absorbed. Then the scene ended.
There was a voice in my mind, that told me about the energy of Heaven and Earth and of the thousand year deadline. With that voice came a cultivation method and an instinctive timer. At the moment it is set around 294 years.
When I wanted to I could remember the voice, the timer and the cultivation method.
But the scene of the big beast was repeated again and again. It originates from my bloodline inheritance. The beast is my ancestor. He could be my father, grandfather or further forefather, that I do not know. But what I know is that my beast bloodline is showing me my ability that I inherited from my paternal lineage.
My bloodline inheritance gave me also more information, though it did not show it like a scene but like memories in my mind. For example the language that is spoken in this world or the cruelty of this world, the pride that I should show because of my lineage or that I also must hide if it´s necessary. The most intense thing my bloodline is telling me is to become stronger, to be able to travel beyond this world and a gain more and more strenght!
When I decided that I saw enough of the scene and the information, I started to cultivate. The world is cruel and the stronger I am, the less I will be disturbed, robed, attacked or something like this.
But the most important thing is to be deemed worthy of the higher existence that brought the energy of Heaven and Earth to us. I don´t know what will happen if I will not be deemed to be worthy, and my instincts are saying that I wouldn´t want to know.
So to be deemed worthy I need something that that existence thinks is worthy and the first thing I can think of, is strength. The same thing my bloodline says. If I am strong enough I will be deemed worthy. Even if I don´t, when I am strong enough maybe I will be able to survive this calamaty. It´s really logical. Strenght is everything! If I am stronger than that existence, why do I need to fear it! Why do I need it´s help to travel beyond!
The first two realms of the cultivation method is relative simple. They are body foundation realms, so for purely energy cultivation they are not really needed and optional, but they make it easier in the future. I have to absorb the energy of Heaven and Earth and convert it to my internal energy. With this internal energy I have to refine my body.
The refinement can be made in different ways. The first way is to use internal energy or other means to slowly destroy specific parts of the body and then regenerate it with internal energy. Though it tells to destroy the body, what it really means is to destroy the body on cellular level little bit at a time, and when its regenerated than one can continue with other parts. This is the first method.
The second method is more painful but more efficient. The whole body will be filled with internal energy and then more and more energy of Heaven and Earth will be absorbed and converted to internal energy, that at one point the body can´t sustain it any more and the internal energy will destroy it. But this is the most important point. For this method, one can only have around 100.00001 percent of internal energy the body can sustain and then only a little bit of the body will be destroyed but with the rest of the internal energy the body will directly be regenerated. For this method one has to have a very strong fine control, but the advantage is that the whole body is advancing at the same time.
Then the last method that is written in the cultivation method is the most simplest and most painless method. The body just absorbs energy of Heaven and Earth converts it to internal energy and with the internal energy the body will be nourished. This is the most easiest way and it is nearly impossible to hurt themselve with this method, but the nourishing method needs the most time, multiple times than the other two methods.
Now to the difference between the two body foundation realms.
In the first realm the energy of Heaven and Earth will be converted to internal energy. Because this is probably the first time to cultivate, the connection to the energy of Heaven and Earth is not that great. So one can only absorb a limited amount. Besides that the most mortal bodies, non cultivated bodies, can not sustain the higher internal energy. So in the first realm the body is cultivated with gaseous internal energy.
Then the gaseous internal energy will become more purer and denser through compression, and the body will be cultivated with more and more higher quality internal energy till the internal energy become liquified. After the body was cultivated with liquified internal energy it will breakthrough to the second body foundation realm.
