I mentioned the Ranks and stages Im going to go in depth now because for the life of me I cant remember
Ranks start 1 - 9
MOST humans starts at 0 awakening their core through harsh training, beginning at the Physical State of cultivation or just Physical state it grants you a weak Red core its the most common core, it has no other uses besides allowing you to augment your physical abilities such as speed, strength etc using your Chi so everyone at the Red core has to rely on their weapons,items and battle spirits as they cant manipulate not generate elemental energy.
Next is the Orange core or the Core Refining State it expands your core and meridians increasing the speed your Chi forms as well as the amount you have. Next is Yellow or Elemental State allows you to wield and transfer your Chi to Elemental Energy upon reaching this state allows you to incorporate Energy attacks in your combat and each person who reaches this state have affinity/understanding of a certain element making their abilities with that element more potent
I havent thought of the Unique abilities of these States yet
Next is Green Core - Valiant State
Next is Cyan Core - Sublime State
Next is Blue Core - Supreme State
Next is Violet Core - Acendent state
Next is Purple Core - Transcendent State
Last is White Core - Deity State
Battle Spirit Ranks
A Red battle spirit is the equivalent of a 1-2 Rank Cultivator, a Red battle spirit of someone at the Rank 4 Valiant/Green Core would have a Spirt at the level of Rank 1 Green Core cultivator
Red Spirit = Rank 1
Orange Spirit = Rank 2
Yellow Spirit = Rank 3
Green Spirit = Rank 4-5
Cyan Spirit = Rank 5-6
Blue Spirit = Rank 7
Violet spirit = Rank 8
Purple Spirit = Rank 9
White Spirit = Rank 9 ½
Any Spirit Yellow or above that have affinities can bestow them to their User so Let's say my Yellow Water Snake Battle spirit Is water based but I naturally have fire affinity then I now have both affinities, Green battle spirit can grant their special trait to the user say My Green Tortoise battle spirit has excellent defense, I now also have an amazing defense at the Peak of Rank 5 almost Rank 6
Cyan battle spirits allow you to Fuse with your battle spirit.
You can have several battle spirits its just very rare most have only one, a few have 2 or even 3!
Spirit Beasts are Creatures who can cultivate.
Demonic Beasts are mad animals who wish to consume to grow in strength, it leads to death either through being killed or dying while breaking through Ranks.
Demonic cultivators are cultivators who have struggled to break through or who seek an easy path to power through eating a few strong foes or many Ordinary people, this accumulates madness their Demonic Chi is more potent than regular Chi, by how much? Idk whatever i feel like i guess.
Weapons
Can do anything the plot demands.
