Mortal Cultivation Levels:
1. Qi Gathering Realm: This is the starting point of cultivation. Practitioners learn to gather and refine Qi (life energy) from their surroundings, and use it to strengthen their body and increase their physical abilities.
2. Foundation Establishment Realm: At this stage, a practitioner has successfully built a solid foundation of Qi, and can use it to perform basic martial arts techniques and cast simple spells.
3. Core Formation Realm: In this stage, a practitioner has developed a Core in their dantian (energy center), which represents their Qi foundation. They can now use their Qi to manipulate the elements of nature and create magical artifacts.
4. Soul Warming Realm: At this level, a practitioner has warmed their Core and can control their Qi more efficiently. They can now perform more powerful spells and martial arts techniques, and even use their Qi to heal themselves and others.
5. Spirit Tempering Realm: In this stage, a practitioner's body and spirit are tempered to withstand greater amounts of Qi. They can now channel their Qi to their limbs, making their physical attacks more powerful, and also use their Qi to protect themselves from external attacks.
6. Martial Ancestor Realm: At this level, a practitioner has become a true martial artist. They have honed their martial arts skills to a high degree of proficiency, and can use their Qi to perform incredible feats of strength and speed.
7. Heaven's Mandate Realm: In this stage, a practitioner has attained a special connection to the heavens and earth. They can now use their Qi to control the elements of nature on a larger scale, and even create their own small domain. They can also manipulate the forces of fate, influencing the outcomes of battles and events.
[A cultivator can start flying from Heaven's Mandate realm.]
8. Earthly Immortal Realm: At this level, a practitioner has transcended mortal limits and become an Earthly Immortal. They can use their spiritual power to control the forces of nature, such as wind, fire, and water, and even manipulate time and space to a certain degree.
9. Heavenly Immortal Realm: In this stage, a practitioner has ascended and become a Heavenly Immortal. They have control over all the elements of the universe and can manipulate them at will.
10. Divine Immortal Realm: In this stage, a practitioner has reached the highest level of mortal cultivation, becoming a Divine Immortal. They have attained complete mastery over the elements of the universe, and can create and destroy miniature dimensions with a thought.
