Chen Jao walked in his living room pacing back and forth worriedly. His wife was just about to give birth and he had heard many thing about what could go wrong during birth. His stress is already at a high with having the two clans that he and his wife were in breathing down his back. A short while later the midwife came out of the room, saying “the child has been born, congratulations it is a boy”

“Did everything go alright, how is she?” Chen Jao interrupts with his face the picture of distressed.

“Everything went smoothly you needn’t worry, now go see your child” responded the midwife before leaving. Hearing this Chen Jao rushed into the room to see his wife ,Jane Jao, hold the little boy that is wailing trying to calm the little baby. This baby was the man formerly known as Edwy Sharp who was quickly realising where he was and what he was.

“He’s so precious”murmured Jane Jao as she gently held the baby” what shall we name him

“Edwy is a strong name, shall we use that?” Chen Jao said softly with a caring look in his eyes. Meanwhile Edwy thought it was funny that he would be given the same name in this life as in the last so, he could not help himself as a little baby’s giggle escaped his lips.

“I think he like it so, edwy it shall be” declares Jane Jao after seeing the little child giggle (but like a baby giggle which is more of a gurgle with a toothless smile ya know)

Some time later…

“Oh my the little lord Edwy is so adorable, I just saw him trying to practice with his baby -sized sword,” exclaimed one of the maids when gossiping with Jane Jao

“Yes and my baby is so smart being only two years old and can write, read, and speak clearly. Oh I can't wait till he is seven and awakens his martial spirit,” replies Jane Jao with obvious excitement

Meanwhile Edwy already knew the language as it is the same as his old worlds, english. While trying to practice some of the sword techniques of his past he thought about what he had already learned about this world through reading the books in the library. This world only has one huge continent and everything living can cultivate because, there is an abundance of Qi. Since each universe has a different way to cultivate in this one cultivation will begin once a child turns seven and can enter his soul space to awaken his martial spirit or if he is lucky, spirits. Each spirit would have an attribute or attributes, an attribute can be wood, lightning, fire, water steel, darkness, and many more. A martial spirit can be anything they’re generally a martial beast or a weapon and will allow you to gain the ability to absorb Qi of that attribute and use that to fill up his corresponding spirit core. When one had enough energy or filled the requirement on could break through to the next realm in the path of cultivation,which would grant an explosive boost in power. The ranks from start with mortal spirit, mortal elite, mortal king, immortal spirit, and so on since there is no end to the path of cultivation. Once you reach the immortal realm age can no longer affect you and you will stay the same age that you broke through at. While he did not belong to a major clan both of his parents were from big clans but, had gone into seclusion to avoid the clans and their politics while Edwy is young. That said, his parents were still very well off money wise with having a manor in a fire treasured land. A treasure land is a place that has an exceedingly pure amount of one type of Qi. These treasure lands pop up everywhere in this world.

“Edwy come here” says Chen Jao disrupting his thoughts “ I heard you have been in the library a lot is this true”

“Yes, I wish to learn as much as possible in a short amount of time” Edwy responds carefully

“Well then, we have quite the intelligent kid here don’t we jane” says Chen Jao full of pride

“That we do chen, that we do” says Jane Jao while nodding “now off to bed youngster”

Edwy soon walks off to his bedroom which he insisted he have seperate from his mothers and once he got there he began his nightly workout routine as he prepared for the future where he wishes to never be looked down on for being weak.

A few years later on the day of Edwy’s eighth birthday...

A light could be seen coming from as Edwy finds himself on a barren plane full of darkness. He liked to see cocoon of Qi surrounding a figure as it swirled menacingly.
