Six great systems

**Aren't you being too arbitrary about it...**

This article is in desperate need of cleanup. If you can, please take a moment to help fix it.

Thanks in advance for your efforts!

The **Six Great Systems** refer to the six main classifications of spiritual abilities in the Luo Xiaohei universe. They are the following:

**Elemental type** (御灵系, *yù líng xì*, lit. "controlling spirits")

**Instrument type** (锁御系, *suǒ yù xì*, lit. "lock control")

**Creation type** (造物系, *zàowù xì*, lit. "building matter")

**Spiritual type** (生灵系, *shēnglíng xì*)

**Mind type** (心灵系, *xīnlíng xì*)

**Spatial type** (空间系, *kōngjiān xì*)

Other special subtypes under the spiritual type are the **strengthening type** and **healing type**.

## Premise

There are two kinds of spirits: living spirits and material spirits. **Living spirits** comprise the life force of living beings while **material spirits** comprise the material components of spiritual beings. These spirits naturally manifest in nature in the form of tiny translucent balls of energy without will or direction.

When enough life spirits gather together, there is a chance for a fairy to be born. **Fairies** are purely elemental beings typically aligned to one element. Once they've spent more time on earth cultivating and gathering material spirits, there is a chance for them to become an elfin. **Elfins** are beings born purely from spirits in nature, therefore making them naturally more spiritually powerful. However, humans can also cultivate spiritual ability by learning to absorb living and material spirits from nature and storing it in their spiritual realm.

## Elemental type

Main article: Elemental type

**Elemental type** (御灵系, *yù líng xì*, lit. "controlling spirits") is the most basic and accessible type of ability. Every spiritual creature has a natural dominant affinity for one of the five elements -- water (and ice), earth, fire, metal, and wood -- and entails the ability to manipulate or control them.
