Divergent

Divergents (天地异数) are special existences of heaven and earth. Such figures will always grow quickly like a shooting star. Their light will dazzle the world, and they will step over countless experts' corpses. But unfortunately, such existences will never be accepted by the Heavenly Dao. No matter how strong they are, they'll all die under the power of the Heavens, not even leaving a corpse. Their lifespan are set by the heavenly dao and interfering with their lives draws huge karma.
Their identity as divergents are masked by the heavenly dao once they reach the Tendon Transformation realm. Trying to divulge their identity will cause a backlash from the heavenly dao. Ling Yunzi got injured by backlash for 3 months while trying to confirm Long Chen's status as a divergent. There is a legend that divergents can only be killed by the heavenly dao and not by mortals.
They generally start undergoing tribulation starting from Meridian Opening realm as opposed to general people who start doing it from Xiantian realm. Generally tribulations contain 90 percent destructive power and 10 percent life force, However their tribulations don't even contain 10 percent of life-force.
== Heavenly Dao ==
Divergents were exceedingly rare. And Divergents amongst the human race were even rarer. And for a Divergent to be noticed before the Heavenly Daos had masked them was essentially unheard of.
Normally, only when Divergents were eliminated by the Heavenly Daos would people know what they were. It had been countless years since someone had noticed a Divergent that had yet to mature.
Such a figure will always grow quickly like a shooting star. His light will dazzle the world, and he will step over countless experts' corpses. But they will never be accepted by the Heavenly Daos. No matter how strong they are, they'll all die under the power of the Heavens, not even leaving a corpse.
Divergents were not accepted by the Heavenly Daos. The stronger they were, the more powerfully they would be rejected by the Heavenly Daos. Each of them would be a shocking genius that would sweep across the world. Unfortunately, fireworks could not be sustained for more than a moment.
Within the long history of the cultivation world, such figures were like the flower known as the Queen of the Night. That flower bloomed for but one night a year, wilting before dawn. When these figures bloomed, although they would shake the entire world, their time would be over in just a moment.
That's why the current world's strongest experts do not possess such existences. Divergents will all be pitilessly exterminated before they can manage to stand at the peak of the cultivation world.
If one tries to change their course they will be affected by karma.
== Classification ==
They are generally classified into 2 types:
* 1- Heaven-Seizer : They are a domineering type of Divergents. The people they kill would have their karmic luck snatched away by them, and that allowed the Heaven-Seizers to grow exceptionally quickly. However, these legendary Heaven-Seizers were all innately cold and tended to side toward brutal slaughter. Now, whenever someone encountered such a Divergent, the world had to bring out their full power to eliminate them to prevent disaster. They can steal a person's fate and luck and steal heavenly talents.
* ————————————
* 2- Heaven-Defier :The information about Heaven-Defiers is limited to legends, and their very existence is in defiance of the heavens. They were enemies of the Heavenly Dao, refusing to submit to the heavens' will. Each time they break through barriers, they would be sensed by the Heavenly Daos, which would then do anything they could to destroy them. There is a saying that such people should have never existed within the world. Their fundamental existence is a mistake, so they had to be eliminated. There is another saying that if a Heaven-Defier managed to grow, they would one day be able to threaten the Heavenly Daos and overturn heaven and earth. As a result, the world would unleash a destructive heavenly tribulation on them whenever they advanced. Their tribulations are purely destructive and contain no life force at all. Long Chen belongs to this category.
