[Beast are separated by Ranks]

[Animal Rank: In this Rank, normal Human beings without cultivation can take care of the Beast without worrying about their life.]

[Beast Rank: In this Rank only those that started cultivating can have any chance in defeating them and it would take a lot of time to kill them. They have very poor intelligence, but good enough to employ more advanced tactics. This often comes at the expense of their natural senses, as such not many survive through this phase, since they often pick the wrong enemies to anger. They are also often hunted, because this is the first Rank that creates Cores in their Bodies.]

[Magical Beast Rank: Only those who have developed intelligence are in this rank. There are some cases where a beast loses their mind while attaining a pseudo-Magical Beast Rank, but it robs them of their reasoning, causing them to attack anyone and are unlikely to survive. In this stage, Intelligence reigns supreme and Humans would often make contracts with a Magical Beast, taking care of them and fighting alongside them. However, once under a contract, if the owner of the beast died, the beast would die too! If the Beast died, the Human would be left unharmed. As such, Humans would often use Beasts in this stage as bait, since the Beast wouldn't be able to refuse the owner's orders.]

[Spirit Beast Rank: Beasts in this rank have attained some form of Enlightenment and are able to cultivate using Beast Cultivation Techniques. These are different from the Innate Cultivation Techniques, which they gain in their Magical Beast Rank. They can choose any path as long as it fits them. Humans would go crazy to contract Beasts in this Rank. These Beasts would have already advanced through their cultivation and be leagues ahead compared to their peers. Their Cores are also more solid, making it possible to refine them into Beast Orbs - A Spiritual Beast in its truest essence, allowing Cultivators to summon their Beast if contracted and refined properly. Spiritual beasts are ethereal, as such, only Techniques containing Qi or #### can hurt them. Even if you somehow kill the beast, as long as the Beast Orb is intact, it can be nourished back to life. However, if Humans refine a Beast into a Spiritual Beast, then there is little to no chance to make them stronger, a Spiritual Beast will be stuck at the same strength as they were in their Spirit Beast Rank! Many intelligence gathering organisations around the world will try to keep track of Spirit Beasts.]

[Demonic/Holy Spirit Beast Rank: One of the MOST important Ranks as they will be able to attain a Human form and form a Dantian. While it is possible for some Beasts to gain a Human form in the Spirit Beast Rank, it depends on the Beast's cultivation and emotions. Without the proper 'want' they wouldn't be able to attain Human form, but that is not the case with Demonic or Holy Spirit Beasts! They would gain Human form the moment they enter this stage, but at a cost. Their Beast Cultivation and Strength would regress to the earliest stage of their life! In some cases, that could mean they would be weaker than Human babies! After creating a Dantian in their bodies, they can start Cultivating Human Cultivation Techniques, greatly widening their paths. Humans are obsessed with getting Beasts at this stage, as they are much more beautiful than humans and can be used to make great cauldrons. Their blood, strengthened by their Cultivation, is the perfect form for Normal and Demonic Cultivators to attain ####. Pills created in the Cauldrons from these Beasts are also greatly enhanced, depending on the type of Beast they were previously. Dual cultivation with Beasts in Human form also provides more than 5x the benefit compared to cultivating with ordinary fellow Humans. As such they are extremely sought-after commodities and any beast at the Peak of Spirit Beast Rank would be watched over constantly so that they can be captured when they are at their weakest after breaking through. Demonic and Holy Spirit Beast do not differ much other than their preferred way of consuming energy. It's unlikely that Holy Beasts would follow a Demonic Cultivator, but it is likely that a Demonic Beast would follow a normal Cultivator, as they are a great source of cheap energy and easily charmed!]

[Beast Ranks are further separated by Grades from 1-9, Low-Middle-High, but these Ranks are mostly used by Human Cultivators, as Beast can sometimes slay other Beasts above their grade, or be slain by Beasts below their grade.]

Body Cultivation;

After [Nascent Soul]

Bone Refinement Stage. They refine their bones to be thicker, denser and more compact, while retaining flexibility. This turns their skeleton into armour, causing it to be greatly resistant to mortal weapons. This also allows you to gain natural affinities towards certain Elements, changing their colour of bones.

Muscle Refinement Stage, at this stage, they refine their muscles to be denser, more powerful. This makes their strength soar towards heaven.

Blood Refinement Stage. Body cultivators refine their blood, changing their blood colour to an extremely crimson-blood red. At that point, the vitality of their blood is enough to instantly heal any wound they get. Going as far as to practically regenerate lost limbs, without the skin. Some body cultivators may even use Blood Cultivation methods to change the colour of the blood, giving it greater values and properties.

Meridian Refinement Stage, at this stage, body cultivators refine their Meridians, practically creating more Meridians, more connections, more complexity to it. Which allows them to absorb world energy faster and more of it.

Dantian Refinement, this is the most critical one, as they refine their Dantian to be one that can fit more energy and resist damage. (For example, Qi deviation.)

Viscera Refinement Stage, at this level, they refine the Five Viscera to be harder and wider. (1/2 have to get something)

Marrow Refinement Stage, at this stage, body cultivators refine their Marrow bone to be cleaner, allowing faster Qi absorption and greater poison resistance. (2/2 have to get something)

Skin Refinement Stage, body cultivators at this level, refine their skin, making it so hard and persistent, that most weapons have trouble even scratching them.

Body cultivators then can begin closing their 3000 acupuncture points. After closing all of them, they gain a body with no holes, practically one, that is even harder to damage.

They can then start forming Pure Yang Qi, which is a form of Qi purely for body cultivators, they can only start gathering it at this point, otherwise their bodies won't be able to handle it.

After they have enough Pure Yang Qi, they can start using it to activate their 22 Source Power Points which are on thighs, calves, feet, biceps, forearms, hands, stomach, chest, neck/throat, brain, eyes, mouth, upper back and lower back. 22 Source Power Points, allow the body cultivator to summon massive amounts of power from thin air.

[Cultivation][Cultivation in Mortal Realm is separated into 'Cultivation', 'Demonic Cultivation' and 'Beast Cultivation']

[Those are further separated by the type of Cultivation Technique. Mainly 'Energy' or 'Qi' Cultivation Path. 'Body' Cultivation Path. There are more niche Paths, but these are the main and most spread ones.]

[Normal Cultivators harness the 'Essence' and 'Energy' of Heaven and Earth to cleanse their bodies and enrich them with newfound Vitality.]

[Demonic Cultivators prefer to harness 'Vitality' by itself. Often seeking pleasures through Torture or Rape. Most if not all their techniques are focused on extracting their victim's Vitality and they rarely Cultivate Heaven and Earth Energies.]

[Beast Cultivators are Beast that harness Energy from Beast Cores of their fallen prey. They indulge in Hunting and Killing enemies to increase their Internal Energy inside their own Beast Cores]

[There are some Beasts that developed different techniques by seducing Humans and sucking their Energy out of them. Very few do this, since the danger is often not worth the effort as Humans are many and they stick together, while Beast rarely stick together.]

[There are even fewer Beasts that get into intimate relationships with Humans. Those Beasts can in theory Dual-Cultivate with their mate, but are often killed, since their Energy is not as rich as when Humans take it straight from their Core.]

Divine Consciousness - Hidden inside the mind, protects from outside intruders. At later stages, they can leave the body and settle in dolls.

Divine Sense - Powerful invisible force that allows gathering information and telekinesis

Divine Sea - A source of knowledge, an endless sea that can provide a room for treasures as well as other relics and trinkets.
