Within a certain Mortal World lied five continents.... One of which was the weakest and was named the Black Serpent Continent and at such an Continent was an powerful Empire called the Zhenren Empire which ruled over several countries one of which was the Ven Country of the Great Three Sovereignty's of the Empire. There was a certain 3rd Class City and near that city was a cave filled with great energy.... much more than what would be expected of such a small city and near a somewhat small wooden house a voice was being yelled....

"Ye'er!, Ye'er!" was being continuously called outside a silent wooden house and the name Ye'er was the name of Zhou Ye the young mortal boy whom's body the spirit entered. His name was being continuously called out by his mother as he was not seen yet and as Zhou Ye got home his parents had furious expressions to which the father shouted out with furious anger "Where have you been! you've been gone for several hours now!!!!"

Yet at the same time he had a few tears falling down his scarred face and hugged Zhou Ye. Zhou Ye's father had a strong and bulky body however lacked one arm which was lost due to a beast attack however the loss of the arm seemed to only make him seem more frightening his father was wearing ragged light brown greyish clothes which peasants or the working class would usually wear.

Zhou Ye's mother wore an robe coloured light blue which whilst wasn't extravagant did not emmit the sense that she was of the lower class. Her face was quite beautiful and she was of the young age of 30 with long silky black hair and the father had a slightly rugged face and seemingly to Zhou Ye "Soul piercing eyes" as well as black hair pointy hair which Zhou Ye never knew why his father had pointy hair and was also gradually losing hair likely due to the stress caused by Zhou Ye which Zhou Ye never knew about despite knowing his father was young at 34.

Zhou Ye's father usually grew angry as he was losing hair at such a young age as most normal people like him would live to 200 at most and 150 at least and even those at the age of 150 still had hair thinking about this simply made Zhou Ye's father even more stressful though. Zhou Ye's father thought to himself "UHHH i m only 34 and already losing hair not even my great grandfather has lost hair yet..." Zhou Ye's great great grandfather was at the age of 154 which was considered a little old one could not forget that marriage and birth usually happened in a young age infact many of Zhou Ye's friends had living great great great grandfathers and mothers the rest that didn't had usually met their ends by beasts in the past or unfortunate circumstances. (Zhou Ye's family aren't normal mortals but not cultivators)

Zhou Ye replied in "Uhhh i saw a falling star or something and i followed it?" His father grew extremely angry until Zhou Ye's mother told him to stop "Its ok Honey it just matters that he's back now" Zhou Ye calmed down after hearing this and quickly ran to this room and lied down on what seemed to be a bed and closed his eyes thinking of what happenned and thought to himself "I'm not tired like i usually am?."

As Zhou Ye lied down and closed his eyes he started to dream and as he was dreaming he saw a figure in loose white robes with embroidered golden stripes going down. As Zhou Ye tried to look he saw the space around it distorting and slowly more and more of the mysterious figure with white robes became apparent.

He had seemingly to Zhou Ye real "soul piercing eyes" which he thought that could really see right through his soul. The figure had slightly long crooked white hair going up as well as an long white beard which reached almost all the way to his chest. The figure was sitting on a golden and silver throne and looked to Zhou Ye as if it was an Emperor looking down on a peasant and the distortions became more and more clearer slowly. The figure however if looked closely also looked severely weakened as he had blood on his mouth as if he coughed it out however this did not at all weaken his majestic presence in front of Zhou Ye.

In response Zhou Ye seemed to bow unwillingly as the force as compelling him to do so and was just about to speak before the figure spoke in an archaic voice "What... is your name?". If Zhou Ye wasn't to shocked he could hear that the voice whilst containing great majesty and elegance was very quiet and sounded weak however Zhou Ye wasn't able to tell of course. Zhou Ye then tried to reply with "Zho....". However Zhou Ye was having trouble saying his name and barely managed to get his courage up and said "Zhou Ye..... Senior"

The figure introduced himself as Tang Xuan the celestial emperor of one of the Immortal realms in a quiet and archaic voice "My name? How strange.. Well it is normal for a realm like this.. In the past I was known as the Celestial Emperor of an Immortal Realm and I just so happened to "past" my tribulation and become a Deity... But my body was a step to far and i forcibly entered such a stage... Well it doesn't matter thats all in the past my name is Tang Xuan..". Zhou Ye replied and asked "What is an immortal realm?" Zhou Ye knew what an Immortal meant and had either less or more knowledge of what a realm meant but was curious what he meant by one of any immortal realms.

Tang Xuan remembering that Zhou Ye was only mortal decided to explain the system of worlds to him "Before i tell you i must tell you of the mortal realms since you are an mortal without any cultivation experience allow for me to enlighten you at the bottom are mortals but do you know what is after mortals?" Zhou Ye replied in a somewhat scared voice "No.. senior...." Tang Xuan then explained "After mortal is the stage called Spirit Foundation in which one can channel the power of the world and heavens onto themselves strengthening their fleshly body, within Spirit foundation lies several powers such as Spirit Disciple, Spirit Practitoner, Spirit Master, Spirit Lord and Spirit Fusion i can see you are already nearing Spirit Disciple..." Zhou Ye replied with a look of confusion and asked "Senior... i have never cultivated before though? How could i be near?

Tang Xuan replied whilst having a slightly grevious expression and said "By this energy fluctation i can sense that a war happened here once and it was only that of the spirit foundation participated in and that many spirit masters died perhaps even a pseduo soul cultivator fell because of the death it was a great benefit to the land especially since noone seems to try have claimed the energy here yet likely because it is to weak... or noone wields the power to?"

"After Spirit is Soul Emergence which allows for the Soul to be directly strengthened allowing you to project Soul power and defeat opponents with a thought as well as emitting out soul strands this is split into Soul, Great Soul, Grand soul, Soul King and Soul Emperor all stages can also be split into initial, middle, late, peak, pseudo, half-step" For the time being this is all you need to know there are but one more stage before the afamed immortal stage" Zhou Ye replied with a face wanting to learn as he only knew that there were mortals and immortals he also had an slightly scared expression "Uhh senior you still have not answered my question of what is an immortal realm and what is the immortal stage?"

(Initial Mid, late and peak are as the term suggests Pseudo means to have techniques simmilar to that for example a pseudo Soul cultivator can project weak soul power and they're techniques are limited to only the weakest that soul cultivators can do and Half step soul means that they can employ almost all except the most powerful techniques)

Tang Xuan with a slightly angry expression replied "The immortal realm is an place where people are born as Spirit Disciples and naturally enter into Soul stage as adults and as the name suggests it is the realm of immortals where they dwell, the immortal stage is the stage in which one can traverse the stars I was once but a step short of the realm above the immortals alas i couldn't defeat the tribulation but unlike those detached immortals who can still ascend after failing i am still a half-step perhaps i can go higher but i can never truly reach the next realm and my physical body will take to long to reconstruct as well as if i do so manage to reconstruct my body i will immediately be targetted by tribulation once more.... thus so i have decided to have you inherit my legacy" As Tang Xuan told Zhou Ye all this he thought to himself "I have had many disciples before him all praciticing Origin.. i hope that they will help him if i cannot... my soul is far to weak for any advances at this point"

Tang Xuan knew however his soul would be fine as he was at the last stage of the tribulation which was divine fire theoretically he had actually in a way passed the tribulation as he truly seperated his soul and body making them unrelated to each other leading to save himself however there he could no longer progress after peak half-step as his soul was damaged to the point that it could no longer progress to the new stage unless an extremely powerful treasure was used. Tang Xuan also knew that he was stuck to the mortal child's body as he completed a fully attachment meaning that it was two souls living in one body as well as making precautions that he doesn't accidently absorb or damage Zhou Ye's soul. If Tang Xuan was to unapply himself to Zhou Ye then it would rather take far to long and it would be a hit to his already low soul power.

Zhou Ye was frightened yet also joyous as he we would embarken on a journey to become an immortal and exclaimed and kneeled "many thanks senior!" Tang Xuan replied with a slightly angry expression and shouted "You have a horrible apptitude its going to take some training and time for you to actually start!" Zhou Ye was currently at that age of 10 and one month however was quite tall at around 155cm as even Mortals could slightly touch the earth and heaven energy through going to cities or places with a thick spiritual energy fluctuating as well being quite knowledgeable as some countries fiercly encourage education even at villages.

As Zhou Ye was thinking to himself about how is life was going to change, Tang Xuan let out a coughful of blood and thought to himself "Who knows how much longer i can last..."
