Chapter 4: World Map – The Three Great Realms

The world of cultivation is divided into three vast realms, each more powerful and resource-rich than the last. Every cultivator begins their journey in one of these worlds, and only the most heaven-defying individuals can ascend beyond.

1. Lower World(Mortal Origin World)

The weakest of the three realms.

Spiritual qi is thin and diluted, making cultivation slow and difficult.

Sects are small, and most cultivators struggle to even reach Core Formation.

This is where Ye Tian was reincarnated—the perfect place to start his domination.

Though looked down upon by the other realms, it hides ancient secrets and forgotten legacies.

2. Middle World(Grand Heaven Realm)

Far richer in resources, qi, and spiritual beasts.

Home to powerful sects, noble clans, and large-scale cultivation wars.

Mid-to-high level cultivation techniques are accessible here.

A stepping stone for those aiming to challenge the heavens.

Ye Tian will journey here after establishing dominance in the Lower World.

3. Upper Realm(Immortal Divine Domain)

The highest and most revered world in existence.

Overflowing with divine qi, spiritual treasures, and forbidden knowledge.

Dominated by ancient families, immortal sects, and arrogant geniuses who see all others as ants.

Only the most monstrous cultivators can survive here, let alone thrive.

This realm is Ye Tian's ultimate battlefield—and the place where he once fell.
