Shut up: You, Nymphomaniac Evil Sword

Sam had gained knowledge about cultivation from Jemin and other teachers of the school.

  It was said that talented people could cultivate much faster than others , But there was also another kind of people in this world who were blessed by the universe from birth.

They were called Natural Born Elemental Bodies. 

There were supposed to be 5 Natural elements which formed everything in the universe and the rest of the things were a combination and mutation of these 5 natural elements.

It was said that the Primordial Will formed the Primordial Energy in the form of a sound.

  The creation was in the direction of spirit to physical or from a formless state to a definite form.

The first element to be formed was the element of Ether or Sky, which became a medium for the sound and the element was called the form of sound. 

Now the sound could be heard and the sky element was associated with the sense of hearing.

The next element born out of Ether was Air which had a better form and it was a form that could be felt and was associated with the sense of touch.

From the air was born the fire element which could be seen , the sense associated with fire was the sense of sight.

The next element that was born out of fire was water and it was associated with the sense of taste and the form had become more physical by now.

The last element was the earth formed out of water and the sense associated with it was the smell.

The primordial energy became a definite shape in this form.

After the different combination and mutation it gave birth to everything else including the ultimate creation of life with intelligence.

Warriors who had natural born earth elemental body, were geniuses in Earth elemental arts and they could easily manipulate the element of earth.

The earth elemental body was very rare, maybe one in a million, but considering the other elemental bodies the number of earth elemental bodies was highest.

  This had something to do with earth being the last to be formed and was an element more closer to humans. 

The next highest number was water element bodies and so on.

There were also naturally born mutated elemental bodies, these were people with wood elemental body, metal elemental body, lightning and so on.

Mutated elemental bodies were considered supreme genius and were much rarer than the other elemental bodies with the only exception being.

  The Ether elemental body, which was the rarest among rare and their talent were considered above supreme geniuses, they were real monsters. 

But the number of such monsters were close to nil.

Another kind of genius were people with more than one elemental body, they had affinity to more than one element.

Here, more the number of elements, the rarer it was. 

A person with four elemental bodies was as talented as someone with the Ether elemental body, a monster. 

A prime example was the great saint Taraveda, he was a master in manipulating the four elements.

Even among elemental bodies there were different grades, low, medium and high.

The difference being, the higher the grade, the more affinity the person had to that element and more easily that person could cultivate that element. Sam was a medium grade earth elemental body ..

But an elemental body was no necessity for cultivation, there were many talented geniuses who had no elemental body, but cultivated to higher realms. 

Many ancient sages and saints had given the notion that these talented geniuses might have an affinity with, The four eternal elements which are hard to comprehend. They were Space, Time, Soul and Mind.

The affinity with these elements didn't have anything to do with elemental body, but gaining a certain understanding or enlightenment. 

Even the concept of the five Natural elements were born inside the Eternal element of Space.

The process of cultivation was an entirely different thing, one could attract the Ether energy from the surrounding by chanting and meditating on certain Mantras.

  The Ether energy was also called the spiritual essence without any nature or color.

  Even without doing anything any normal person had Spiritual essence within them in a small amount.

But cultivators deliberately attracted and guided the spiritual essence into their lower dantian, where it transformed into warrior essence or mortal essence or qi.

The qi was again moved up from the lower dantian to middle dantian where the qi transformed into immortal essence or shen and from there the shen was moved up to the upper dantian where Shen got transformed into God essence or creator essence or Wu wei.

This was the method of cultivation that the people practiced, The lower dantian was a storage for qi , the middle dantian was where the qi was converted into shen which was a form of energy that could be used to transform one's body from mortal to that of an immortal.

The shen energy had the ability to heal and regenerate, it acted like a special mechanism to aid the body.

The upper dantian was where the shen was again converted into Wu wei.

  Wu wei was a special form of energy, that behaved like nothingness from which anything can be formed.

It basically aided the warrior to mold the energy present in one's dantian or the energy present in the surrounding into different forms.

  Wu wei was the base to execute different techniques, It didn't just help mold the energy but it helped in manifesting the will of the cultivator.

There was no rule that one needed to cultivate in the order of lower to middle and then to upper dantian.

  This is also where the Sages differed from warriors.

The focus of the sages was to cultivate Wu wei , they didn't focus much on the lower and middle dantian.

But their lower and middle dantian transformed automatically along with upper dantian.

  The sages also practiced different martial arts or exercises which would aid their body .

Sam reached his new home thinking about all these matters , this was a place that he rented out from an old couple.
