Yin Tian Shen Yin Cosmology

==Introduction==
Welcome, this blog was created for the purpose of covering the Yin Tian Shen Yin Series Cosmology. Since this series is still ongoing, and translations are few and in-between this Cosmology currently only covers the first 2 Novels, Eternal Suppression of Heaven Abyss & Soul of Searing Steel. This will be a comprehensive break down of the entire Cosmology, covering common structures like the World, the Multiverse and also the more complex concepts in the verse, such as the Initial Flame & Primordial Steel alongside the Void and Chaos.
==[Worlds]==
===[Physically -]===
Within the multiverse, worlds vary greatly in size—ranging from smaller than Earth to ones that are truly endless expanses. Many fall somewhere in between, being as large as a solar system or even rivaling the observable universe in scale. The size of a world directly influences the strength of its World Barrier, the protective shield that keeps it distinct and separate the rest of the Multiverse.
===[Temporally -]===
For worlds, time consists of two parts, the River of the Future, and the River of the Past. Although the past is unchangeable, and the future consists of unlimited possibilities and unlimited change, both rivers cannot normally be controlled and interacted with, even if one has authority of all things within a world.
The River of Time flows endlessly, encompassing things like causality and fate, with all else merely floating as dust within it. This flow creates multiple timelines, worldlines, bifurcations, and possibilities, leading to the existence of infinite parallel worlds. Each decision creates a split, adding another aspect to the Multiverse. This vast Tree of Probability, with its countless layers, expands without, every conceivable and unconceivable possibility exists, and all potential futures are present.
===[Origin of the World]===
The world perceived by most beings, made up of countless points, lines, planes, and higher dimensions, is actually a limited. Despite the fact higher dimensional beings are composed of countless lower dimensional beings, and have greater information, possibilities and power in terms of the ability to change and manipulate, the views of life forms are still shallow and generally one-sided. It is merely the aspect of existence that those beings are aware of, a projection of the Origin of the World, which is composed of information of not only 'Existence' and 'Non-existence' but also 'Ambiguity'.
The Origin of the World is indescribable, the source of all things, not bound by any angle or direction of space, despite having a start and end, and being infinite. Everything that can be described has not yet appeared, and as such, none of those things can be used to describe. It is simple a carrier of information, where infinite layers of data compound to shape the world, existing beyond space, deeper than the Void, at the center of causality.
==[The Multiverse]==
===[Physically -]===
The Multiverse is infinite, encompassing countless worlds and millions of galaxies. Each galaxy consists of millions of worlds, which together form complex, pluralistic galaxies.
===[Temporally -]===
Just like worlds, the Multiverse is constantly splitting apart without limit, resulting in there being infinite parallel multiverses.
==[The Initial Flame]==
===[Existence -]===
The Initial Flame is as the Source of the Multiverse, a combination of endless Rivers of Existence, teeming with boundless energy and information, and containing all the possibilities of the Multiverse. It gave rise to the Origin of the World, with the origins being the remanent of itself present in every universe. Originating from the void and encompassing all, the Initial Flame created the Concept of Existence, becoming the indescribable and formless meaning of existence throughout the Multiverse.
===[Concepts -]===
The Initial Flame separated all concepts and enabled life to assign names to the unnamed, creating laws and logic within the universe. This further allowed every object and concept to acquire significance, linking them directly to the act of creation. They were then cataloged in the various Origins of the World throughout the Multiverse.
===[Order]===
Order represents balance and civilization, as wisdom can turn Chaos into Order. As Chaos's counterpart, Order symbolizes the cycle - the loop of reincarnation for souls and wills, maintaining harmony of the world and keeping Primordial Steel in motion.
===[Differentiation -]===
The Initial Flame caused distinction among all things, becoming the boundaries between life and death, cold and warmth, darkness and light, as well as order and chaos. It was this primordial force that created the differentiation between every existence and the Void.
==[Primordial Steel]==
===[Existence -]===
Primordial Steel is the source of all that exists, having created shape itself, and all the worlds within the Void. It is the thing that nearly everything is made out of, giving birth to all things, including life itself and the bodies of that life.
===[Conceptual -]===
Primordial Steel is the origin of strength and power. Whether it be the use of materials or the creation of tools and weapons, all of these things are considered a part of Primordial Steel, the same going for calmness, rationality and absolute power. The very action of challenging the worlds natural cycle, whether it be in farming or maintaining human survival, at the crux of it all is Primordial Steel.
==[The Void]==
===[Unity]===
The Void represents a balance, an eternal unchanging state of nothingness. Without the influence of the Initial Flame, it is a realm devoid of distinctions, merging things like earth and sky, cold and warmth, Order and Chaos into a seamless, opaqueness. In this state, even the line between existence and nothingness is non-existent.
===[Chaos]===
Chaos is the most basic and ancient of concepts and is the most primitive form of all things. Within Pure Chaos, there is only eternal silence, leading to the stillness and lifelessness of Primordial Steel. It exists outside the world's cyclic nature, contrasting with Order's balance. Consequently, Chaos is also the root of all disasters.
