    Ashura :A race of Demi gods with great affinity for martial arts ,they dwell in the heavenly realm and are in an endless war with the deva. They age incredibly slowly and face heavy tribulations as they cultivate to higher realms.They rebel against the heavens and suffer for it.They have the most powerful physical bodies.

    Human: A race of mortals with great affinity for creating treasures ,they dwell in the mortal realm and compete with the beast race of their realm.They age quickly but find it easier to cultivate to higher realms do to the tribulations in their realm being weaker.

    Beasts: A race of mortals with affinity for bloodline cultivation they dwell in the mortal realm and compete with the humans of their realm .They age slowly and get stronger with age reaching higher realms by staying alive longer.They face heavier tribulations than humans but their tribulations are weakened by the mortal realm .

    Soul: A race with affinity for spiritual cultivation they dwell in the nether realm and are neutral with the devils of their realm.They do not age and face no tribulations in their realm when advancing to higher realms but are almost assuredly dead if they face tribulations in other realms.

    All races are currently scattered and without leadership ignorant of the great dao
    Merits can be earned by founding cultivation and establishing institutions

    Because of the human soul you have higher affinity for treasure crafting than other asura but your tribulations will be harder than other asura.

    Name:
    Mao Tian Zen
    Gender: Male
    Race: Devil-Asura
    Cultivation Path: Spiritual Path.
    Weapon:
    [
    Primal sphere](soul def& support, soul attack:+300%, def:-99%of enemy atk);
    [Spine of Xiao Zen] ( A Kusarigama, once it has tasted the enemies essence {Blood,soul aura, etc} it can hook and reel them even if they are worlds apart, it reeks of vengeful Devasouls, it's mc's natal weapon with infinite growth potential, but it's scent makes it a beacon of hatred for any nearby Devas.[atk:+10%, special ability:Curse, Haunting of Deva souls, +500% against Deva race].

    Background: A devil ascender found himself in dire straits after passing the mortal realm void, without a physical body he was doomed for oblivion.

    A Asurian war veteran dying from old age happened to cross upon this pitiful soul and took him in her care.

    She used a cosmic material [Primal Sphere] to nurture the soul and incubated it in her heart.

    Once the Devil grew out he was sent a message to mind "I've never had time to live for myself, with giving you life I wish that you can fulfill my desire to live without burdens and shackles and roam the wonders of myriad heavens!".

    Seeing the gory scene of the Asura's body and her sacrifice, even the crazed blood hungry Devil shed a tear and swore to live a life of happiness and adventure. To remember by he took upon the Asura's name with his own [Mao Tian Zen ].

    He used the remains of his mother to create his natal weapon, and found for some inexplicable reasons it took the form of a Kusarigama on its own, an army of divine souls wailed around it, it's call seeped in ones bone and made their soul run from their bodies.


    With the Primal sphere still nurturing his soul, and his Pure blood Asura body he decides the Spiritual Path would be the best to reach the apex again.


    Present cultivation { S-10000/10000, B- 100000/100000, D- 5/10000}

    Soul: manifestation realm. (Apex of mortal realm){1st step in samsara realm}, nurtured by the [Primal Sphere] gains increase in soul constantly. +90% every post.

    Body - Nirvana stage 1<youngling>. Ancient Asura bloodline body, can fight toe to toe with 3rd step cultivator in present samsara realm. Will need a lot of time to mature and advance on its own.

    Dantian- Qi sensing realm ( very start of cultivation, will quickly recover back to world integration realm (apex of mortal realm) ). 5 steps of cultivation increase until recovery. [ 9 steps remaining till recovery].

    Weapon- [Spine of Xiao Zen] level: Bone stage. [ Stages remaining- Marrow, Vessels, Muscles,Five visceras, Heart, Soul].

    [Primal sphere]: Null stage, its origin is from point of creation it doesn't evolve.


    Techniques: Blood rage arts [ mortal dantian arts, now obsolete other than for natal weapon].

    Burning bone secret art [ body arts, can help speed up growth].

    Myriad weapon compendium [ a detailed introduction and teachings to all weapons , mc has mastered bow and sword, but is still novice in Kasurigama].

    Tree of existence [ a mysterious scroll mc chanced upon, soul manipulation technique, has five divisions, mc master in the first division. Knows all the 4 skills in it { Soul scour, Essence Absorption, Soul Seed, soul screen}].



    Mortal titles: Sect Master of Devils Abode, Ancestor white Devil, Slayer of Innocents.

    The forging of an immortal treasure has triggered the treasure tribulations to succeed the tribulations must be overcome while forging.
    Empyrean flames fill the sky (If the refining flames aren’t controlled the forger and treasure are incinerated)
    Void wind rages between heaven and earth( Can’t be blocked the power of the refining flame must be maintained with energy or it will be extinguished )
    Draconic thunder lurks in the clouds (Thunder seeks to destroy the treasure)
    Yin rain blankets the earth( rain that steals yang energy eroding the treasure)
    Ominous stars shine in the heavens (Chance of success is reduced )
    Countless beasts roam the earth ( beasts are attracted to consume the formed treasure)
