Life Destruction/Life Forging

In order to progress in the Life Destruction and Self Forging realms, one would have to first destroy. They would have to destroy any cultivation arts and techniques they are practicing. They would also need to destroy their talent, senses, body, laws, bloodlines, as well as their fate. This can be done all at once, or one at a time. Any of these can be reformed at anytime and will be of a higher level than before. If they are reformed with specific treasures, then they will be made even stronger.

This realm served as a nightmare for some while serving as a miracle for others. If a cultivator had a strong background and rare treasures, they could use fuse these with each aspect of their forging and become much more powerful. One could increase their talent, purify their bloodline, improve their understanding of laws, gain a better understanding of their art, and strengthen their body as well as their senses including their spiritual sense. For others, this stage was nightmare. Each stage required destroying a critical part of their power. They would become vulnerable and therefore could be ambushed and killed.

Life Destruction split the weak from the strong. The more one destroyed at once, the more they would benefit. If a cultivator destroyed all aspects of their self at once, they would benefit much more than others. The other factor was length. The longer one stayed in a destroyed state, the more the would gain from forging. The minimum time required to reforge an aspect was five years.

The most dangerous part of this realm was the light beacon released as soon as a cultivator destroyed an aspect of their self. This beacon would attract the attention of everyone in the vicinity and could be sensed by every cultivator in the Life Destruction/Life Forging realm. If a cultivator in a destroyed state was killed by another cultivator of the Life Destruction/Life Forging realm, the killer would gain the victim's destroyed aspect for themselves but it would be forged. For this reason, there were many Life Destruction/Life Forging cultivators that hunted for others trying to advance and killed them. They could enhance their own aspects. Without a strong background, it was extremely difficult to advance in this realm. This was also the realm in which geniuses from strong backgrounds were the most threatened.

After reforging all of their aspects, a cultivator would be many times stronger than before. The most important thing would be their ability to improve, which would be greatly enhanced. Even without the use of treasures, a genius would be able to beat multiple other cultivators at the same rank. At the peak of this realm, a cultivator could live for 1,000 years.
