Prologue
An old man wearing tattered clothes sat next to a donkey on the streets, he had a single cup in his hands, it was obvious that he was a beggar, but instead of despration and depspair the old man sat with a smile that would only come from someone who has experienced wealth.
Hundreds of people have walked passed him, not one has given him any money. Afterall only a crazy man would still smile whilst being a beggar. The old man though didn't seem to mind as he kept his smile with his eyes shut. Just then the sound of a solid object being thrown inside the cup could be heard.
The old man's eyes opened and saw a kid about 10 years old with a chipped tooth in front of him, with a big smile. "Grandpa,there is no such thing as a free meal in this world."The old man looked up as the boy his smile widened "haha, little brat what do you think I a beggar can offer you for this piece of silver?"
The boy smiled back "Information ofcourse! I have traveled every inch of this town, and nothing in this city interests me anymore! You do not look like someone that belongs here, so I want you to tell me about your travels!" the old man could not help but laugh and rub the boy's hair "Haha, good eyesight, good eysight!""Follow me boy I'll tell you about the world in a quiter place."
Normally at the age of 10 no kid would go with a stranger. but the boy felt like there was an indescribable trust that he had for the old man, and so he followed.
They arrived at an empty wooden house on the outskirts of the city, it was in a remote area that was far from the rest of the houses in the city. Not entering the house the Old man asked the boy "Tell me what do you know of the world." the boy eye's shined as he explained " This world is called the Azure Dragon planet, legend says that this planet was once the eyeball of the divine beast the Azure dragon, there are many countries, this city is blackwater city, one of the poorest cities in the country of Zhu!" the boy stopped speaking, his expression carrying pride, pride of his knowledge.

"Haha good, good, little boy, let me tell you more about the countries, there are a total of 2 tiers a country can catagorise into, one is desolate, where the majority of the countries fall in, in a desolate country, in desolate countries there are mainly 6 levels of power a human can reach, Body tempering realm, Apprentice realm, Master realm,Grandmaster realm and finally Earthly shedding Realm. why you ask? because in desolate countries, the resources are mostly low grade, and so strong people would naturally not want to stay in these countries.
Next comes the divine countries, where the most valuable of resources are located in, there are 6 levels of power, Heavenly soul realm, Quasi-angel realm, Angel realm and Archangel realm, False Divinity realm and Divinity realm. There has only ever been 3 people who have reached Divinity realm in the history of this planet." the old man paused and looked at the boy who stood there unblinking eyes shining like diamonds.
"Grandpa these 11 realms of power, are they what you call cultivation?!" the boy asked with excitement, "Smart boy! Yes, these 11 levels are called the Heaven realms, it is the limit of what the heavens allow people to achoieve, but this is only the peak of what is allowed! There is a peak above this out there, my child, I have failed to reach that peak, thinking I had knowledge of all there is, in the end I am only the frog in the well." as he said this the old man stopped smiling for the first time, there was deep bitterness in his eyes.
"young boy, there I can tell you wan't to know beyond the heavens, sadly I cannot give you the answers to that, however I can give you the chance to expierience this yourself, are you willing to take this chance and soar through countless existances and arrive at the top! Not through the limited path set by the heavens but the path of your own the path of heavem shattering!"

The boy felt a feeling that cannot be described without hestation he replied "Yes!" The old man smiled and pointed to the forhead of the boy, the boy felt warmth, his body was as light as a feather as countess information flowed into his body along with something that made him feel much stronger.
After a while the old man removed his finger from the boy's forhead. "Young boy, if you have the chance to, give my greetings to an old friend of mine, he is called Yin gu, of a race called the Silver celestial wolves. You are now at the peak of body tempering realm, go!Go on to continue what I have failed!"
Theboy looked at the old man with determination, "no grandpa I, Zheng Wu Yang will not continue your path, like you told me to I will forge MY OWN PATH!" Hearing this the old man's eyes watered and his face lifted into a smile. The boy blinked and the old man was gone, the boy kneeled in front of the spot where the old man dissapeared, with tears in his eyes he kowtowed.
