Cultivation

## Information

Cultivation is a way to improve one's physical body. By cultivating Essence Energy Arts, it is possible to improve one's Stats and reach a higher life level. This process is very slow ordinarily, but can be sped up by absorbing crystals dropped from Dimensional Creatures. It is an ever-regressive process, in which one can lose their reflexes and muscles by not training frequently.

Lifeform levels have special benefits at their stage. These benefits are usually in the form of special abilities. Besides these abilities, all cultivators have keen senses. It is very difficult for one to defeat or kill a higher level opponent. As one progresses in cultivation, the differences in level become more noticeable.

The commonly known life levels among Humans are Mortal, Legendary, Epic, and Mythical. However, there are more levels above Mythical. These are Terror, Calamity, and Apocalypse.

### Mortal

Mortal stage is the lowest level, with no special traits.

### Legendary

Life Providences are this level's special feature. As it provides a buff that Mortal levels just don't have, they almost always win when fighting against Mortal levels.

### Epic

The difference between Epic and Legendary is much bigger than Mortal and Legendary. This isn't just because of stats, but also because Epics have soul protection in the form of Life Souls. Experts at the Epic stage can break past the speed of sound.

### Mythical

In The Dimension, Mythical is described as an initial threshold among mythical creatures. The difference in stats between it and the Terror grade isn't very big. However, its Wheels of Destiny are almost unbeatable to lower level lifeforms.

Within other dimensions, this is a level that can be considered weak. It is the bare minimum needed to reliably move around in The Dimension. If one is below Mythical, they will usually be suppressed by the powers present in it.

### Terror

Terror is a level comparable to a god. It is composed of terrifying creatures who control things lower level beings are scared of, such as the weather. Explosive power at the Terror grade is comparable to nuclear explosions.

Although some might describe it as a state of the Mythical level, it is in fact a separate level. Its power isn't from Wheels of Destiny, but Terror Forms.

Rarely, Terror creatures can generate a Terror item that contains their power. This isn't something just anyone can do. Terror items are pieces of a body that has undergone Terror transformation.

### Calamity

Calamity is a stage whose power is commonly compared to natural disasters. Earthquakes, floods, or hurricanes are possible for members of this grade. Unlike lower levels reliant on light-type skills, Calamity grades can produce other attacks that move at lightspeed. A Calamity grade's power primarily comes from their Calamity Zones.

Advancing to Calamity requires the absorption of special items. The most common item is the core of a dimensional zone. The quality of the item usually determines one's potential for growth. When one advances to Calamity, a calamity related to their powers will be triggered. This is not limited to one's race or physical composition, as it happens to everyone.

If a Calamity dies, they can drop their Source of Calamity. It is a part of the body imbued with their powers. Consuming it can enhance one's attributes.

### Apocalypse

Apocalypse is a level above that of Calamity. Unlike calamities, which tend to last for limited periods of time and might only affect one area, an Apocalypse is an existence that can threaten a world. Destroying the sky is possible for it. The special ability of an Apocalypse is the New World.

When an Apocalypse dies, it can drop a World Fragment. If one's energy art is compatible with the fragment, it can be absorbed to advance to Apocalypse. Otherwise it can't be used.

Those who reach the highest stats among Apocalypses are referred to as peak level. This is different from the world-level Apocalypses whose powers go beyond these stats and are strong enough to maintain order in a world. Many of them are regarded as supreme beings in mythology.

### Cosmic

Cosmic is a level that eclipses Apocalypses. Even a world-level Apocalypse is only considered a half-step Cosmic. It exceeds the limits of the Human World and The Dimension. A Cosmic grade possesses enough power to significantly affect the universe in either world. However, there exists a place where even a Cosmic grade is a rookie.

Since Cosmic grades consume a large part of the universe's power when they advance, it is hard for multiple of them to be born. It is possible for a universe to collapse by someone advancing to Cosmic.
