Celestial/Ranks

Describes Celestial ranks 1-9 and other mechanics in detail
== Limit break ==
For rank three Celestials, due to their limited talent, reaching the Jade Core realm would normally be their limit. The limit for rank four Celestials was Soul Transformation, and the limit for rank five Celestials was the Life Star realm.
This so-called limit referred to never being able to advance again after making their breakthrough. In other words, once a rank five Celestial broke through to the Life Star realm, their cultivation bases wouldn't advance again.
These people's cultivation bases would be stuck in the state of someone who had just broken through. They couldn't even count as having reached the first Heavenstage. It was a bit similar to how Liu Cang had used a Life Star Bead to break through.
== Rank 2 ==
A rank two Celestial was even closer to the Heavenly Daos. The Heavenly Daos showed even more care for them, and they would be able to walk even further on their cultivation path. A rank two Celestial was a terrifying existence. At the Xiantian realm, they could match a late Sea Expansion expert.
Shui Guanzhi and the other rank two Celestials (four heavenly geniuses) had all been found to have an innate Dao mark by the time they were five years old. They were innate rank two Celestials.
There were two kinds of rank two Celestials. One kind had advanced from the first rank. But that was extremely difficult.
For example, Yin Wushang had been a powerful figure amongst rank one Celestials. If he could have perfectly merged his true body with his clone, then he would have had at least a thirty percent chance of becoming a rank two Celestial.
Not all Celestials would have a chance of advancing. It would depend on their Heavenly Dao runes, as well as their talent. The most important thing was that it required an ocean's worth of resources. Amongst one hundred rank one Celestials, less than one might advance to the second rank.
Most rank two Celestials were innate. They simply had to awaken their Heavenly Dao runes. That was what made Shui Guanzhi, Zhao Wuji, Zhong Wuyan, and Yue Qianshan supreme existences in the Xuantian Dao Sect.
Their arrogance was natural. They didn't place any rank one Celestials in their eyes.
A rank two Celestial's Heavenly Dao runes could help them activate magical arts. Through training, they would be able to unleash incredible power. Rank two Celestials could truly dominate the Sea Expansion realm. But rank one Xiantian Celestials were only able to fight the early Sea Expansion realm.
Amongst rank one Celestials, ninety-nine percent of them didn't have any attributes. So the only thing they could depend on was their Heavenly Dao manifestations. But rank two Celestials were blessed by the Heavenly Daos and had higher chances of having an affinity with an element. That created a huge chasm between rank one and rank two Celestials.
== Rank 5 ==
Innate rank five Celestials and above have the ability to merge with the heaven and earth. This occurs when their heavenly dao runes are condensed to the peak after which a portion of their runes merge with the heaven and earth. Once the achieve that realm, they're able to control Heavenly Dao energy with a thought. A rank five celestial isn't considered a true rank five Celestial till they master this ability. 
== Rank 7 ==
A rank seven Celestial's manifestation is termed Seven Stars Reflect on the Runic Sea.
== Rank 8 ==
A rank eight Celestial's manifestation is termed Eight Stars Illuminate the Cosmos.
== Rank 9 ==
A rank nine Celestial's manifestation is termed Nine Flowers Manifest the Heavenly Daos. Their manifestation comes in the form of nine flowers. Each flower, vein, and piece represents a Dao. 
Under the Nine Flowers Manifest the Heavenly Daos' suppression, the majority of others' Heavenly Dao energy would be stripped away. They would only be able to unleash fifty percent of their normal combat power at best, so they would definitely die upon facing Luo Minghao. That was the terror of rank nine Celestials.
They are blessed by Golden fate lines.
