Lin Mingyu felt anger overcome him as he went through the owner memories, he felt sorry for the poor boy to grow up in such a cruel world. He vowed to avenge the owner and prayed that he can rest in peace and reincarnate into a better life.
As he searched deeper through the owner's memories he finally found out what the world is called and it's history.
This world was a cultivation like fantasy world called Immortal Martial Continent, where the strong are respected while the weak become stepping stones.
In this world, there is energy called Spiritual Qi that is absorbed by cultivators for cultivation.
Those who practised it was known as martial practitioners/cultivators. Every cultivator has a spiritual root since birth that will unlock their element/affinity when they reach the certain age of 12.
The elements are categorized from common, rare, legendary and divine.
Common:
Red flames
Water
Earth
Air
Wood
Rare:
Ice
Blue Flames
Metal
Lava
Shadow
Plants
Legendary:
Purple flames
Lightening
Nirvana flames
Light
Darkness
Divine:
Heavenly flame Phoenix
Immortal ice Pheonix
Space manipulation
White dragon
Black dragon
Fairies Nature
There are many other spiritual roots that aren't in the list above due to the reason that the ones listed are mainly ones that already been recorded through out the kingdoms and lands.
Though there are also some new spiritual roots that are discovered and recorded in every hundred thousands of years since every newer prodigy that emerges.
After all one must remember and put into mind that the lands out there are vast and full of unexpected things, of course new discovery will be made and words will be spread.
Before children unlock their roots, cultivator children will automatically have to gather Spiritual Qi in their dantian that will then reform their meridians and strengthen one's mind throughout time.
While this happens your body then produces Spiritual Energy, that will slowly accumulate and builds up layer by layer until hitting break through into a new level. The more Spiritual Energy one has, the stronger one will become.
To officially unlock one's spiritual root one must pass the spiritual beginner stage in which will then start to make ones spiritual root to awaken.
It usually takes many young cultivators at the age of 12 or more to finally unlock them but there are those who are naturally born geniuses who will likely pass that stage a couple of years earlier already making them to be a special prodigy in their clan.
Prodigy people in the clan are usually well maintained and taken care off only to be provided with the best of the best of things so it slowly nurture their strength in the future.
Elders and Clan heads only hope was for these young ones to become strong influential people when they grow up as they eventually mature, praying it will bring their clans into new heights like envy, status, connections and benefits.
Besides all of that there are also different professions here in this world such as Weaponsmith Masters, Alchemy Masters, Beast-Tamer Masters and Array Masters. All these different type of profession that requires different type of skills set and passion are what most Spiritual cultivators do here as a profession.
You can learn more than one professions but that depends on one's spiritual force.
You may be wondering what Spiritual force is. Well to explain it Spiritual Force is the strength of one's mind, the stronger the force the more profession and capabilities a Spiritual Cultivator can achieve.

There aren't many who cultivated to a Divine being only just a few who succeeded but that only happened a few millennia ago, heck even longer.
Not only there are cultivators but there are also animals that could cultivate which are well-known as Spiritual beast.
They differentiate from bloodlines such as common to ancient, their cultivation is also similar to spiritual cultivators but only a smidge different.
Spiritual beast is highly prized by cultivators as they contain prized cores used for alchemy, weapons, cultivating and other miscellaneous things.
You can buy a beast from a beast merchant but they usually sell common to possibly unusual ones but if you want the rarest spiritual beast they are pretty hard to come by, you either have to go to an auction or the forest to find the rarer ones.
When you meet a beast it isn't like a pet, no, you will have to make a contract with them first so you'll be able to connect and form some sort of bond with them.
There are 3 contracts beast and cultivators can make, the first one is the Master and Slave contract, where the beast will submit to all its master commands and if the beast were to die the master wouldn't be affected by it at all.
The second is the Equal Contracts, where beast and cultivator are in equal terms and if one of them were to die there partner would be set free and continue on with their life.
The last but not least is the Life and Death Contract, where if the master were to die the other will join along with them accompanying them to the afterlife.
To have a contract with a beast, both parties will have to drop each other blood with one another which will automatically create a spell, this will allow them to be tied down to one another forming what you call the contract.
Not all beast is easily tamed as people who already have one usually formed a contract with them beforehand.
Most cultivators only contract with a beast when they either hatched from its egg or just given birth to, as they don't have much of a conscious of their own yet.
To tame a wild beast you will have to call in a Beast Tamer or buy an already tamed one from a beast merchant.
If you're extremely lucky enough some beast will ask or gesture to make a bond themselves even if they are wild but that's pretty rare as most beasts become prideful when it comes to humans.

I don't quite like the stages of advancement some novel have so I made some up with the inspiration of many other novels. I'm also gonna make up some more stuff such as spiritual beast, empires, cultivation manual and much more so hope all goes well.
