The stronger the heritage of a clan the greater its prospects . The more and better progression paths , cultivation techniques , hidden Titles , access to hidden pocket-worlds and unique cultivation resources a force has , the better the heritage is .
Of course , the stronger heritage you have the more attractive a target you become , and wars are constantly fought across the multi-verse to snatch heritages , - Ogras said . - The greatest forces in the multi-verse are said to have progression paths all the way to at least B-rank , making their heritage an unimaginable treasure , - he finished , with yearning in his eyes talking about those lofty clans .
And how does cultivation fit into all of this? - Zac continued . This was one of the most confusing things for him so far . From Abby it seemed that cultivation was extremely important , but so far he had progressed just fine without being able to cultivate .
Cultivation has various benefits . First it improves your advancement speed in levels . At a certain point one can forego sleep completely and instead cultivate , making it possible to ceaselessly progress levels . At low levels it doesn’t make a large difference , but at high levels a single level can take a year or more , and at this point the difference starts to show . - The schoolmistress Alyn picked up again .
Secondly , cultivation doesn’t only improve levels , it also improves our very foundations . It can improve our very beings over time . Essentially , it can help evolve our races , which is the biggest difference between a cultivator and a mortal . - She said .
Most mortals are forever stuck at F-Grade Classes , since they can’t afford the means to evolve into E-Rank Race . Advancing the Race is the most basic requirement for any class advancement , and no matter the Dao enlightenment or titles , without an advanced race you just will not progress . And as mortals progress it becomes unimaginably hard to find the treasures to keep their advancement going . -
Finally , cultivators can increase their combat power compared to a mortal if they have a suitable cultivation method . Say the cultivator is a Pyromancer Class . If she has a fire-attributed cultivation technique , her attacks will get even fiercer . Conversely , if she use a water-based cultivation technique she might get weaker , or even hurt herself over time . -
Zac finally understood how classes worked in the multi-verse , and was a bit troubled that he seemed to have gone down a harder path . His Rare class was a boon in the form of giving good skills and extra stats , but it seemed it was far harder to progress compared to the normal classes .
Even worse , it seemed that getting stronger truly was easier for cultivators . It would become harder and harder to keep his lead it seemed as time went on . At least he had caught a lucky break snatching up a Fruit of Ascension , solving the issue of his race for now . Still , he would have to find new treasures to keep advancing , whereas the cultivators could just , well , cultivate .
Can a mortal become a cultivator? - Zac asked , as that would solve his issues easily . Besides , Abby had said only 10% of the population of Earth was able to become cultivators , so most earthlings could benefit from turning into cultivators . Alyn seemed to hesitate a bit before answering .
Perhaps . It is said that mortals will automatically become able to cultivate when they reach a certain power level . But I am not sure whether it is true . Some say it is at C rank , others at B rank . Some say it’s just a hoax to give mortals false hope . I only know it’s not possible at D rank or lower . - She said . - There are a few treasures able to turn a mortal into a cultivator though , but they are so rare they might as well be rumors as well . - Alyn then added after some thought .
Those treasures are real but unfathomably rare . In our homeworld one was put up for auction fifty thousand years ago , and hasn’t been seen since . When it arrived it created a bloody storm that impacted the whole world . Besides , getting one of them can be a death trap . There are so many old monsters in the multi-verse that have a grandson or granddaughter who can’t cultivate for some reason . They are fine with slaughtering a whole country to snatch the treasure for their kin , making it extremely dangerous to own it . - Ogras added on .
There even was an old hegemon who went to war with a ruling family of a B-ranked planet just to get a supreme treasure which would allow his beloved pet to become a sentient god-beast . Billions of lives were lost because of that stupid mutt . - The demon then said , his mouth curving slightly upward .
What happened? - Zac asked intrigued .
