==Summary==
The story begins with Yang Kai as a Trial disciple in High Heaven Pavilion. He is seen as "trash" among his disciples as it took him three years to reach the third layer of the Tempered Body Stage, in which his speed is seen as mediocre. Due to him being weak, he is often bullied by his fellow disciples as he is challenged every 5 days for contribution points and is beaten badly. Throughout his status as a Trial disciple of High Heaven Pavilion, Yang Kai has been challenged 147 times and has lost every single time. 
Yang Kai's life starts to change when he comes across a mysterious black book that cures him of his birth defect of being unable to cultivate. The mysterious black book provides Yang Kai with techniques, information and abilities assisting him in growing stronger at a rapid speed. Yang Kai now being able to cultivate, goes on many journeys to protect himself and his loved ones as he ascends to higher worlds to pursue the peak of Martial Dao alongside his several wives and friends.

Separation and Reunion (离合): The fourth realm of human cultivation. At this realm, cultivators embark on the path of their choice that shapes their morality.

The Transcendent Realm does not go by stages but by Orders, making the difference in strength between orders vast. The Transcendent Realm consists of three Orders.
Saint (入圣): The eighth realm of human cultivation. Before entering this realm, cultivators start refining their True Yuan Qi into Saint Qi which is far stronger than the former. The Saint Realm consists of three Orders.
Saint King (圣王): The ninth realm of human cultivation. At this realm, cultivators have accumulated far more Saint Qi than Saints and have high comprehension of the heavenly way. The Saint King Realm consists of three Orders.
Origin Returning (返虚): The tenth realm of human cultivation. At this realm, cultivators fuse their will, Saint Qi and Spiritual Energy into Shi to provide a great boost of strength in combat. The risks of reaching this realm are very high, as it becomes the first realm a cultivator can die if they fail to breakthrough. In addition, one can achieve Yuan control Mastery which allows cultivators to perform more complex tasks. The Origin Returning realm consists of three orders.
Origin King (虚王): The eleventh realm of human cultivation. At this realm, a cultivator's Shi mastery is high reaching the Grand Accomplishment stage.

Cultivators at this realm also have an understanding of Principle Strength and can manipulate it in combat. The Dao source realm consists of three orders.
Emperor (帝尊): The thirteenth realm of human cultivation. At this realm, a cultivator has refined their Source Qi into Emperor Qi and has developed Emperor Pressure. The Emperor realm consists of three Orders but is not the end of the Emperor realm.
**Pseudo-Great Emperor (伪帝): The Pseudo-Great Emperor is a step beyond the Third Order Emperor realm. This is the peak cultivation a cultivator can achieve due to the bottleneck of its Heavenly way. The strength they can utilize is far higher than a peak Third Order Emperor. 
**Dao Seal (道印): Emperors condense and focus their accumulation of lifetime Martial Arts practice, energies, and foundation. It is created by condensing these aspects around one of the 3,000 Grand Daos. The condensation of a Dao seal is required for one to become a Great Emperor.
**Great Emperor: The Great Emperor are cultivators that have been recognized by their Universe World. It is a title awarded to them when they have condensed their Dao Seal and can manipulate the World Force of their Universe World. Great Emperors are an extension of their Universe World's will, as such they are invincible existences to everyone other than other Great Emperors or beings that have similar strength. If a Cultivator betrays their Universe World, they will be stripped of their Great Emperor title, becoming unable to manipulate the World Force of their respective Universe World to the degree they were before. It is not required to become a Great Emperor to reach the peak of Martial Dao.
*Half-Step Open Heaven (半步开天): Despite having Open Heaven in its name, is it not considered to be apart of the Open Heaven realm, but another step in the Emperor Realm beyond the status of Great Emperors. Cultivators need to condense 5 of the Yin-Yang and 5 Elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water) into their Dao Seal. Once a Cultivator has done this, they have achieved Half-Step Open Heaven and can show a low quality of the strength of a Open Heaven Cultivator.

Cultivators form a Small Universe within their body, and utilize its World Force in combat. The Open Heaven Realm is divided into three ranks, Low-Rank Open Heaven, Middle-Rank Open Heaven, and High-Rank Open Heaven.
World Creation (创世): The World Creation Realm is the current Peak of Martial Dao. At this realm, one is able to create Universe Worlds from nothing and can utilize the perfect power of the 3000 Grand Dao's.
|-|Cosmology and Locations▾= 
===Starting World=== 
The Story of Martial Peak starts off in the Starting World. The Starting World is a Large Small World or pocket realm that consists of it's own Sun and Moon. The size of the Starting World is unknown however, it is implied to be connected to the Tong Xuan Realm by a void corridor and is the only known way to access the Small World. The World Energy in the Starting World is very low, only allowing cultivators to reach Second Order Transcendent, while people can reach Third Order Transcendent by absorbing the remnant energy of cultivators from the Tong Xuan Realm.
===Tong Xuan Realm=== 
The Tong Xuan Realm is a Cultivation Star in a remote part of the Heng Luo Star Field, in close proximity to the Chaotic Abyss. In an Ancient War thousands of years ago, The Tong Xuan Realm was sealed by the Great Demon God to prevent enemies from discovering it, isolating it from the world and the many Small Worlds connected to it like the Starting World. It's World Energy and Principles is low and weak, only allowing cultivators to cultivate to the Third Order of the Saint Realm.
===Shadowed Star=== 
Shadowed Star is a Cultivation Star located near the edge of the Heng Luo Star Field. Shadowed Star is so old and far away from other Cultivation Stars, many cultivators are unaware of its existence. Shadowed Star is where the Starry Sky Great Emperor fell after her triumph against the Insect Emperor in battle. Their fight damaged the World Principles, creating a barrier around Shadowed Star that prevents people and Starships from going too far from the Star. In addition, the World Principles of Shadowed Star do not allow anyone above the Third Order of the Origin Returning Realm to roam the Star.
===Heng Luo Star Field===
Heng Luo Star Field is one of the hundreds of Star Fields that exist within the "Lower Realm." It is not a renowned Star Field as it was sealed off by the Starry Sky Great Emperor over 10,000 years ago, preventing people from ascending to the Star Boundary. The Heng Luo Star Field's World Principles only allow cultivators to cultivate to the Third Order of the Origin King Realm and anyone higher will be struck by lightning while they remain. Before Yang Kai and the others, Bing Yun is the only known person to leave the Heng Luo Star Field and enter the Star Boundary.
===Ancestral Domain===
The Ancestral Domain is the "Middle Realm" that all Star Fields connect to by a Void Corridor. Star Fields contain countless stars that are their own isolated dimension, preventing people from crossing into another using conventional means. Majority of the cultivators in the Ancestral Domain do not know of the existence of the Star Boundary, much less the Emperor Realm, believing the Dao Source Realm is the peak of Martial Dao.
===Star Boundary===
The Star Boundary is a Universe World located in a remote location of the 3000 Worlds/Outer Universe. It consists of four territories; Northern Territory, Eastern Territory, Southern Territory, and Western Territory. Each Territory is so large, that a Dao Source Master can spend their entire lifetime traveling one and still fail to see everything within it. Each Territory has countless smaller provinces within them with an average size of 40 million kilometers from end to end. The World Principles of the Star Boundary are strong, allowing cultivators to cultivate up to the Pseudo-Great Emperor Realm. The Worlds Will of the Star Boundary is also quite strong, granting 10 people the opportunity to become a Great Emperor.
===Demon Realm===
The Demon Realm is a Universe World located in the 3000 Worlds/Outer Universe. It was previously called the Matchless World before Mo Sheng corrupted it, turning the living beings into Demons and changing the World Principles itself of the Universe World. The Demon Realm was once connected like the Star Boundary was however, during the clash between Flowing Time Great Emperor and Mo Sheng, it split into many continents, with many being cast into the void. Due to the influence of Mo Sheng, The Worlds Will of the Demon Realm is stronger than the Star Boundary's, allowing 12 cultivators to become a Demon Saint, which is the equivalent of a Great Emperor.
===3000 Worlds/Outer Universe===
The 3000 Worlds or Outer Universe is the endless Void that surrounds all Universe Worlds. It is referred to as the Outer Universe by Cultivators who know of its existence, but have not yet left their Universe World, and known as the 3000 worlds to its inhabitants. Cultivators in their Universe World are unable to sense the Outer Universe until they have condensed their Dao Seal. Each Universe World has a World Barrier that prevents Emperor Realm Cultivators from intruding or leaving, but it can be broken by Open Heaven Realm Cultivators. The 3000 Worlds is ruled by the 36 Cave Heavens and 72 Paradises, that only people with the aptitude to promote to 5th Rank Open Heaven can enter.
