Chapter 86 Cheryl's Chronicles: The Path Of Cultivators I

Middle Realm, Central Domain

Middle Continent, Mother Sanctuary

The barrier of the Mother Sanctuary, had now been strengthened to the lesser deity level. Meaning that, it was able to defend against lesser deities and half deities.

But that was useless when there were ancient beings around her. Plus, God Councils were far powerful compared to an ordinary Pantheon. It had three times the number of divine beings compared to a Pantheon.

Let alone the other aspects such as army size, population density or providence value. The population being comparable to beings living within thousands of worlds.

Now imagine their army density, and Providence value. But regardless of how great a God Council was, it had nothing to do with Cheryl and her Sanctuary.

And about the Sanctuary.

It was separated into nine domains on the land, and five within the skies. The outer sect, inner sect, core sect and the six peaks. Up above were the north, east, west, south and main Pavillions.

First would be the outer sect. As most populated area, it was also the largest one within the earth. More than 160 000 Immortal Humans with average talent or no talent at all lived here. Thus was also the considered the mundane territory with no cultivators, just martial artists.

The second would be the inner sect. The population was around 90 000 Immortal Humans, with ordinary geniuses or rather more talented individuals than the former. Everyone here was a cultivator, and the highest realm was the equivalence of an Advance.

The third was the core sect. This place had the least population among the "mortals" of the Mother Sanctuary. Around 10 000 Immortal Humans with the talent of super geniuses. With how diligent they were, the highest realm was the equivalent of a Great Master.

It got harder and harder to breakthrough the higher the realm they got. Especially considering that they are new to this, and have to create their own Cultivation methods from scratch.

Two years were enough for them to be between Grand Master and Epic realm if they used the natural standards. But because Cultivation was new to them, even with Cheryl giving them the basics, the still took time to breakthrough.

And now to the six peaks. Each peak had its own master, along with their own Cultivation method personally made by Cheryl herself. And to add up more, each peak had ten Eternals, true descendents of Cheryl with a hint of her Bloodline.

The weakest talent was a super genius, while the most talented was a century genius. Their connection to the Heavenly Dao she created made their Cultivation ten times faster than their peers, while using less effort.

That was not all, their lifespan were also five times those of ordinary Immortal Humans, who could live for 200 years longer than ordinary humans. Making it a lifespan of 1 000 years, almost like elves.

Within two years, they were at the equivalent realm of a Legend. Thanks to already having Cultivation methods, high talents and resourceful rich environments, their Cultivation rose the highest.

That was why, to the Immortal Humans, Eternals were no different than "gods". Even the weakest among them could suffocate a continent with their aura or shatter a building with a thought.

Them with their "expert" equivalent cultivation, could only dream of doing that. All they could do was shatter boulders with their fist or suffocate a small nation only.

But the Eternals were not the true kings of this place. The Ancestor and her little ancestors were. Cheryl, as the mother and creator of everything here, was revered by everyone greatly.

Afterall, the peak masters, who were not far from the equivalent of a half deity, but already god-like with their individual cultivation techniques, were her disciples afterall.

And the Sage, who was already at said realm, and considered an idol to reach by everyone, was her advisor. Her cultivation could not be fathomed by the likes of them at all.

But thanks to all of this, Cheryl, was left with only 170 units of faith points. Creating a descendent cost her 1 unit of faith power, and she created sixty-seven of them. That was 67 units of faith power gone.

But with an allowance of 3 units of faith power per month, she was not worried anymore. There would be 77 more Eternals by the time she became a Young True God. This was not something that she should regret at all.

"But still, there are 260 000 more Immortal Humans." Cheryl sulked as she sprawled herself onto the bed without a care in the world. Michu did the same, but today, Michelle did not.

She was asleep on the carpet, while sucking her thumb like an adorable child would. Cheryl ignore them and thought on her believers and her future plans.

Immortal Humans were Noble Humans who were given an extra hundred years to their lifespan, making them a unique species. Noble Humans were only purer than normal humans in terms of Bloodline.

But Immortal Humans had a unique feature of living longer lives than even Noble Humans. Thus they were a unique specie. Eternals were thus different.

Lifespan aside, they had the blood of a god, that was enough to make them an Epic race. If a few half deity equivalents were to show up, they would easily become a legendary race by then.

The thing about racial grade was that, the higher the grade, the higher the minimum and maximum potential the beings would have within their entire population.

Take a normal race for example, they would all be born with a minimum potential of [0], which meant they had no chance of even tasting the effects of mana at all.

To them, the world was mana-less, no matter how abundant the mana is within said world. Even within the Greater World, where mana was infinite and boundless, they felt nothing at all.

They could never become ascenders or cultivators throughout their entire lives. And they were quite a lot of such types of people within most worlds.

Now, let's say elves for example. They were a unique race, which was unlike the humans, with a bit of unique characteristics such as being long living... almost like gods.

This characteristics naturally makes them a unique race, thus making their minimum potential be [1] rating. As a unique race, each member would have a +1 to their potential.

Thus everyone was born with the chance of cultivation or the chance of ascension. That was not all, each unique characteristics make them stand out above other mundane races.

For elves, their lifespan exceeded a thousand years. Even if one was born with the lowest potential, as long as they tried hard, they could still become gods after hundreds of years.

Even when the process was harder for them. And that was just for unique races, there were also epic races, which had a +2 effect to potential.

Then legendary races that had of course, a +3 to their potential. Having their minimum potential being what others consider geniuses and such. Such a trait was domineering.

And lastly for the meantime, there were mythicals. Who had a +4 to their potential, which was still genuises, but of a higher category than those of +3 to their potential.

That was the effects of races. Which was another reason why the true gods tried hard to raise the racial grades of their believers. Along with their blessings, they could create very talented fellows.

Imagine giving a person of a mythical race, a first grade blessing. That was a base level of +4, with another +4, which then easily concluded to [8] rating on their potential.

Those were century genuises. And those two, were not the only effects. There were also Realms, and Worlds that made it possible to increase base potential.

The higher the World or the Realm they are within, the higher their base potential would be. It was not impossible for an entire race to have a base of [12] potential.

Of course, such a race might not even have more than ten members. The higher the racial grade, the harder it was to give birth to children. Just the unique elves had it hard.

Let alone the mythical races such as gods. Their chances of having a child if they bred, was even lower than one out of a hundred. Unless the other partner was a lower ranked race.

The world or rather, Existence itself still had to keep balance at the end of the day. Thus there were not much loop holes to the system... either than the true gods themselves.

Now back to the Eternals, they each had a fouth grade blessing from Cheryl, and were Epic races, thus they had a base potential rating of [3]. And that was just base, the more fortunate ones had higher talents.

Let's say you were supposed to be born with a potential rating of [2], but then your base was increased from zero to three, that means your potential rating will be [5]. And that was why the least talented amongst them so far, were super geniuses.
