Mystic realms

## Types

* ***Editor Note:** Mystic Realm is used in text to refer to both the lowest type of hidden realm or any type of hidden realm depending on context.*
* Mystic Realms were something that could be found all across the Multiverse. There were quite a few types of them, with everything from tombs of powerful warriors leaving an inheritance to mysterious zones created by aberrant energies. **Book 2, Page 153**
* The most common type, though, was spatial pocket realms that simply had been detached from a main dimension for some reason or another. Some of these realms were desolate wastelands, but others were pristine areas filled with various rare and precious materials. **Book 2, Page 153**
* There were many types of Mystic Realms, but they were generally split into two categories: Wild and Cultivated Realms. **Book 3, Page 157**
	+ Wild Realms were pocket dimensions untouched by man. Sometimes they were just large deserts devoid of anything of value, but other times, they were like primordial forests teeming with life. If it was the latter, there was a high possibility of finding natural treasures. Of course, where there were treasures, there were often beasts as well.
	+ Cultivated Realms were pockets of space that had either been cut off from the main dimension, grown one way or another, or were Wild Realms turned into residences by powerful warriors. These were generally extra sought after since ruins of high-grade civilizations could contain tremendous amounts of treasure without the high risk of the Wild Realms.
* “Master learned that Mystic Realms are the lowest rung among the hidden pockets of space. There are higher-tiered worlds as well. He mentioned Ancient Realms, Immemorial Realms, and Primal Heavens. I don’t know anything more than that, though,” Brazla muttered. **Book 7, Page 521**
* Mystic Realms were the lowest tier of hidden worlds in the Multiverse. Above those came the Ancient Realms. Even the nearby B-grade forces, such as the Radiant Temple, only had access to a few such cultivation havens. As for Immemorial Realms, they had none. **Book 8, Page 91**

### Mystic Realms

* “This old man also spent the past month divining the fate of this planet. I believe it might be of importance to benefactor,” the old monk added. “The fates of many forces on Earth have converged on the very same hidden realm that benefactor has connections to. This old monk believe–”... The news came like lightning out of the blue. The hidden realm likely referred to the Mystic Realm. **Book 4, Page 23**

### **Ancient Realms**

* Leandra smiled. “It is a brand-new dimension, rife with echoes of the Origin. Your friends were alive when entering the Hidden Realm [*the Dimensional Seed*], and they have gained a rare opportunity in a sense. Their cultivation environment should be almost at the level of an Ancient Realm.” **Book 7, Page 470**
* “It’s that guy?” Uona exclaimed, her eyes lighting up. “I thought he was dead. I have read the reports. I can’t believe Lord Eveningtide survived all that. For one of the Dreamers, he’s pretty amazing. Killing a Havarok prince and even destroying one of their Ancient Realms? Crazy.” **Book 7, Page 655**
* Zac had heard that the Autarchs of smaller factions, like the Radiant Temple, generally stayed in special dimensions or Ancient Realms to lessen the burden on themselves and their factions. **Chapter 1,091**

### **Immemorial Realms**

* It was Alvod who brought that Immemorial Realm to the surface at the cost of most of his fortune. **Book 8, Page 234**
* The frontier didn’t even seem to possess Ancient Realms, let alone Immemorial Realms like the one his mother was taking Kenzie to. **Book 9, Page 153**

### **Primal Heavens**

* *No other textual information than that they exist.*

### Seven Heavens

* "It's a special universe," Kruta sighed. "You could consider it something beyond the classifications of Mystic Realms. They are frankly amazing. You can 'ascend' from almost anywhere if you have access, even outside the Han'Bazor Empire. You'll pop up out of nowhere inside the Heaven. Higher-grade permits can even allow you just to send in your consciousness or part of it. **Chapter 1,032**

### Ersatz Realms

* “The hive is likely a spatial being, containing something like a hidden realm,” Ogras said with a low volume when no ants were nearby. **Book 1, Page 661**

### Pocket Realms

* “This array will let Gemmy come with Billy when we leave,” Billy said with excitement. “It will make Gemmy into a Pocket Realm.” **Chapter 910**

## General Information

* Exploring a Mystic Realm was an extremely dangerous undertaking, and some forces had to sacrifice thousands and thousands of people in order to secure it. And even then, the realm might not lead to any benefits in the end. **Book 2, Page 562**
* That’s why many forces’ herb farms are in Mystic Realms, as their towns would turn into energy-starved ghettos otherwise,” the demon explained. **Book 2, Page 568**
* The rules of a System-sanctioned Mystic Realm were inviolable. **Book 3, Page 102**
* But then again, the isolated nature of Mystic Realms sometimes made beasts evolve in unconventional directions over the eons. **Book 3, Page 160**
* Zac wasn’t an expert in the subject, but he knew that inhabited Mystic Realms were very rare. **Book 3, Page 371**
* A D-grade Hegemon might make more than Zac’s whole net worth in a day or two from exploring a Mystic Realm. **Book 4, Page 284**
* “Teleportation arrays don’t work inside Mystic Realms,” Ogras said with a lazy expression. “At least not conventional ones. Something about a different sort of space. Now, let’s go before the next site disappears from the teleportation array.” **Book 6, Page 358**
* Mystic Realms were pocket sub-dimensions, and they had to have an end somewhere. **Book 6, Page 593**

## Formation and Attachment

* The most sought-after ones were those holding ruins from old civilizations. Some of them might originate from highly ranked original worlds, such as C-grade continents. There needed to be quite a bit of energy involved for a whole section of a dimension to be ripped out and thrown into the folds between universes, after all. **Book 2, Page 153**.
* That seed held the promise of endless possibilities. It could be the core to create a Hidden Realm of almost unimaginable size. Imagine, controlling a Hidden Realm that would slowly grow to the size of an empire. But in contrast to a normal empire that was beset by threats in all directions, you would be a true hegemon as long as you controlled who could enter through the spatial tunnel. A Hidden Realm of that quality was unheard of in a small place like Zecia. **Book 5, Page 516**
* It wasn’t necessary to actively do something for an inheritance trial to form though. The will of a dying Monarch, and sometimes even Hegemons, was powerful enough to impact their surroundings. Their latent will resonated with the Heavens, and a tomb was born, guarded by natural formations affected by the dead cultivator’s insights. A small Hidden Realm might even appear after particularly powerful Monarchs, where cultivators could enter their crumbling inner world in search of treasure. **Book 8, Page 124**
* Mystic Realms popped up left and right, especially so in the past decade according to Calrin. Something about the spatial turbulence of the invaders made all kinds of hidden realms appear. **Chapter 862**
* Had that odd Mystic Realm pushed aside all the smaller ones that usually glommed on to a newly integrated planet? **Book 4, Page 622**
* The assimilation would also bring some new challenges for its population, and the planet might even undergo some changes like gaining new Mystic Realms. **Book 7, Page 485**
* However, a few led to Mystic Realms attracted by the immense gravitational forces of the C-grade Continent. **Chapter 1,086**

## Grades

* It is a supreme-grade Mystic Realm, from what I have heard, and the place where the Twilight Ascent is being held. **Book 7, Page 629**
* Seeing as the realm was a solid Middle D-grade Mystic Realm, even Zac found it hard to deal with some of the toxins that could appear out of nowhere. **Chapter 887**
* A Peak D-grade Mystic Realm should be right at the threshold of becoming an Ancient Realm. **Chapter 1,109**

## Cores

* These methods rarely worked in Mystic Realms because they didn’t have World Cores to rely on, and only D-grade flying treasures that were completely powered by themselves or the user could fly freely. **Book 7, Page 4**
* "Mystic Realms need to have cores if they pass a certain size. Smaller realms only need a strong enough energy density to form a spatial field. Even a powerful lingering intent can suffice as a core for a Mystic Realm, but those are extremely rare Inheritance Realms," Vai explained. "All realms above Mystic need to have cores as well, at least that's what I've read." **Chapter 906**

## Realm Spirits

* That alone proved they were extremely rare, and definitely not something all Mystic Realms or worlds possessed. They were supposed to be a unique type of latent consciousness that could awaken inside a Realm Core or World Core, somewhat resembling a Tool Spirit. **Book 9, Page 136**
* They could ‘live’ for billions of years, as long as a planet, so their consciousness was supposed to be completely different compared to a cultivator. Communicating with them was supposed to be like trying to communicate with nature itself, and this situation clearly didn’t fit the bill. **Book 9, Page 137**

## Entering

* The Mystic Realms were usually accessed through finding soft spots, where the membrane between the main dimension and the pocket realm was at the weakest. At these spots, one could place specific arrays whose job was to create stable portals through the dimensional barrier. **Book 2, Page 153**
* The chest was wide open and housed dozens of metallic stakes full of fractals, likely the array flags needed to stabilize a path to the Mystic Realm. **Book 4, Page 25**
* In a normal Mystic Realm, this kind of barrier was extremely sturdy, and pushing through it was much harder than phasing between dimensions with a Cosmic Vessel. It contained extremely powerful Spatial Energies that would rip most people apart if they tried. It was half of the reason Mystic Realms were so difficult to invade, with the other half being the difficulty of actually locating them in the Void, with distances and directions working differently there. **Chapter 872**

## Titles

* “I’ve already explained that there are a bunch of Mystic Realms out in the Multiverse that provide titles,” Ogras started, and Zac nodded in agreement. “However, most of those places only provide Limited Titles.” **Book 3, Page 352**
* The second information crystal was a comprehensive introduction packet of the Allbright Empire, its forces, and even some Mystic Realms that provided good Limited Titles. **Book 5, Page 478**
* The best Limited Titles came from unexplored Mystic Realms, where people braved unknown dangers. **Book 7, Page 535**
* Some of those who arrived in this place had gotten a Teleportation Token as a reward for some quest, and it was no secret that the System often dropped tokens in the depths of Mystic Realms as rewards for reaching that far. **Book 7, Page 535**

## Known Hidden Realms

* Technocrat Research Base
* Peak's Star Oxen Realm - Besides, we have hundreds of Star Oxen back in one of our Mystic Realms. **Book 2, Page 624**
* Lost Eoz Descendant - During my travels two hundred years ago, I fell through a spatial crack while I explored a Mystic Realm. I was sure I would perish in the vacuum of space, but instead, I found myself in a tomb with a body encased in Eternal Ice. A Draugr warrior. Just digging him out took me three years. **Book 3, Page 405**
* Yrial's Resting Place - “The only reason this place was created was that I needed Brazla to create a specialized item that I required for an expedition into an unexplored B-grade Mystic Realm. Since I never came back to update this place, I am guessing I died inside,” he said with surprising equanimity. **Book 3, Page 477**
* A'Feris's - Io was just a Peak D-grade warrior, but he was still let into the Hidden Realm without any hassle after flashing a token. **Book 5, Page 388**
* Limitless Empire Remnant - The huge battle between the Void Priestess and the other C-grade Monarchs that had caused waves in the whole Zecia Sector two hundred thousand years ago was apparently over a high-grade Mystic Realm said to contain remnants of the Limitless Empire as well. **Book 7, Page 34**
* Eversed Gardens - The group soon reached the gate to the Mystic Realm and passed through, and Boje could barely breathe from how immense the energies were on the other side. Unfortunately, he had no chance to take in the grandeur of the Everseed Gardens, the heart of the Zethaya Clan’s Alchemy foundation. **Book 7, Page 556**
* Primal World - Boje looked at his ancestor with shock when he heard the news. If the Cloudsoar Cauldron was the defining treasure, then the Primal World was the defining Mystic Realm in their possession. It contained an ancient piece of a Peak C-grade continent, a pocket of land that eclipsed any of the continents in the sector. **Book 7, Page 561**
* Twilight Ocean
* Perennial Vastness - High-grade Immemorial Realm
* Zul Lost Clan - “Three-hundred-and-eighty-four million years ago, a small settlement in a Mystic Realm,” Ruz said, seemingly understanding something. “Long-lost tribe members of the Zul. Today, the Zul have four Ancestral Nodes instead of three.” **Book 9, Page 229**
* Emily's Baptism - “A Mystic Realm?” Emily said, her messy mind suddenly cleared by a wave of desire. **Book 9, Page 350**
* Void Gate - I cannot divulge the details, but the Void Gate essentially controls an unusual number of Mystic Realms. **Chapter 862**
* Hundred Fates - The Dravorak Dynasty has the Hundred Fates, but those Mystic Realms are simply serried rather than superimposed. **Chapter 866**
