"Get into it," Zhou Da ordered everyone to enter the spaceship.
As he ordered, everyone got into it, and then the spaceship zoomed into space as it flew away from Planet Xiao,
Under everyone's eyes, planet Xiao became smaller with every second, and after a few seconds, it completely disappeared.
After a few seconds, it moved at a speed that they couldn't see anything outside except for some blurry images,
While moving, everyone was confused, and by seeing their bewildered faces, Zhou Da casually said,
"Well, I think you are all confused. It is called Voidship engraved with void inscriptions to transverse the void. Maybe you may not know, some mortals made something called spaceships for intergalactic travel."
"But their spaceships can't even get any closer to this Voidship in speed and defense. Mortals can make spaceships, so can't we cultivators, who are countless times superior to mortals, make something so greater than them?" Zhou Da scorned, and added,
"Mortals will always be a mortal; They can't be compared to us in any way." He disdained.
Although everyone came from a mortal background, they nodded their heads, as they then weren't mortals anymore, and they went beyond that.
"Senior Zhou Da, may I know something about our sect? Where it is, and how long it is from planet Xiao?" An enthusiastic youth eagerly asked,
Zhou Da thought for sometime before explaining, "Well, First of all, you have to know about our universe or realm,"
"Our realm is called Shu Realm, and it contained uncountable stars, planets, and other celestial bodies. One of the planets in our Shu Realm is your planet Xiao, and it with some other planets and a Sun formed a star system." Zhou Da solemnly said when he looked deep into the space,
"Like that, if we gather so many star systems, we would form a galaxy, and we are in a Galaxy called Mystic Galaxy."
"Mystic Galaxy," Everyone muttered that name reverently.
"In every galaxy, only a few planets would be suitable for living, and of most of them were Mortal Planets like your planet Xiao."
"On Mortal Planets, the Shu energy accumulated was very minimum, so the number of cultivators or their talent will be at lowest." Zhou Da seriously said while pitifully looking at newly selected youth,
"Above mortal planet is called Profound planets, and it is divided into grades based on Shu energy accumulation." Zhou Da calmly said.
"Senior Zhou Da, what are those grades?" The same youth abruptly asked.
"They are divided into six grades; Normal Profound, Earth Profound, Spirit Profound, Heavenly Profound, Divine Profound, and finally, Chaos Profound,"
"We Profound Lightning Serpent Sect belonged to Earth Profound planet named the planet Hong Ming." Zhou Da said reverently.
"Senior Zhou Da, What about other planets? Did you go to any of those planets before?" A youth hesitantly asked,
"Humph! Don't even think about it, as those are way beyond us in power and status, and our Mystic Galaxy only had one Spirit Profound Planet, and that too lowest of Spirit Profound." Zhou Da severely reprimanded them not to have any illusions.
That youth awkwardly backed away.
"Senior Zhou Da, after this, can we become Immortals?" Another youth shyly asked,
"Hehe! You sure are a fast one. You didn't even fully enter the sect but started imaging becoming an Immortal." Zhou Da teased so that youth blushed,
"Well, anyway, I need to tell you a few things about cultivation so that you don't have any fantasies," Zhou Da said and seriously continued,
"As I said, we live in a realm called Shu Realm, and Shu means tree. According to legend, all this realm was born from an ancient, magnificent tree known as Tree Of The Beginning, The Origin Tree."
"Someone believed that we all lived on that tree which was so big for us to see even though we lived on it, and someone believed, a tree transformed into a vast realm."
"It's energy turned into myriad things. The energy from fruits became Stars, and energy from leaves became planets. Its solid trunk became solid space, and its invisible roots became invisible time. Like that everything came into existence." Zhou Da said with profound veneration.
Everyone gasped a cold air when they heard those words.
"Anyway, no one knows the exact truth, but it was definitely related to some tree. And that tree would bless some people with some seeds, and those people are you and me, and we are cultivators of Shu." Zhou Da solemnly said.
"So it's like that, ah!" Everyone muttered, but at that time, Wu Shi doubtfully asked,
"Senior Zhou Da, you said my brother is an Ancient, so what does that mean?"
Zhou Da looked at Wu Shi before smiling and then said, "Your brother is lucky to be an Ancient, and in fact, I am also an Ancient."
Everyone was clueless about Zhou Da words, so Zhou Da calmly said,
"Well, What do you see?" Zhou Da opened his palm, and from that, a red-colored Qi was emitting out,
"Some Red energy," A youth hesitantly replied, fearing he might be wrong about his answer,
"Yes, It was my energy, the result of my Shu energy cultivation, and it didn't contain any properties like fire, water, thunder, or anything like that. Like the same, Shu energy didn't contain any properties, and it was just some energy."
"But what is the difference now," As he spoke, the Red Qi turned into red-colored flames, which intensified the temperature around them,
Everyone got feared with those flames,
"Now my Shu energy is merged with some fire essence and became red flames. The Shu energy didn't contain any properties, and there was something called essence, and that essence is way above Shu Realm, and no one knows from where that essence came from,"
"After the birth of Shu Realm, space essence merged with Shu energy formed a space, time essence formed time, fire essence generated fire, star essence formed stars, earth and some life essence formed planets, air essence formed air, and like that."
"Everything came into reality when the Shu energy mixed up with essence, this essence didn't belong to Shu Realm, and it operated way above Shu Realm. So Shu cultivators can't control the essence maybe can borrow and how it will be you will know in the future." Zhou Da profoundly said as he retreated back his flames.
"But even though Shu cultivators can't control essences, a few of them could do that, and those were Ancients and Immortals,"
Zhou Da words reverberated in everyone mind,
"So there are three types of people if we have to divide, and they were,"
"Cultivator, Ancient, and Immortal,"
