Power Progression
| Stage / Realm / Level | Chapter | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Ambient absorption / pre-martial artist | 5 | Ordinary bodies autonomously absorb ambient Elemental Power to strengthen themselves, but cannot store sufficient power or reliably use it for advanced martial techniques. |
| Martial artist initiation / 2nd Rank | 61 | After reaching martial artist status, Chu Han stores Fire Attribute Origin Energy in his Dantian and can cultivate formal cultivation methods; his reserves at 2nd Rank are comparable to an ordinary 5th Rank martial artist. |
| 4th Rank / Origin Energy Armor | 30 | Reaching the 4th Rank requires a new level of Elemental Power control, allowing the cultivator to condense their energy into Origin Energy Armor and greatly increase defense, strength, and other attributes. |
| 5th Rank late stage | 128 | Absorbing a high-purity Origin Energy ball and Fire Attribute crystal stones advances Chu Han's cultivation; fire-rich environments support his Fire Attribute energy. |
| Early 8th Rank | 266 | Crystal energy is converted into Fire Attribute energy, allowing the Nine Dragon True Fire Art and Heavenly Flame Secret Codex to reach perfection alongside the breakthrough. |
| Enhanced bloodline reserves | 385 | Fusion of Giant Whale Blood with a Cosmic White Whale bloodline greatly expands Chu Han's Dantian and raises both the density and capacity of his Elemental Power. |
| 11th Rank-equivalent reserves | 400 | Although still below the next realm, Chu Han's Elemental Power reserves reach the scope of the 11th Rank through the Yu Shen Art. |
| Five Origin Cores / half-step Martial God-equivalent reserves | 445 | Five Origin Cores operating together give Chu Han Elemental Power reserves exceeding those of a half-step Martial God. |
| Ninety-nine external Origin Cores | 461 462 | The combined cores produce an Elemental Power eruption comparable to a first-stage Martial God; the cores later merge into his body for storage in his Dantian and meridians. |
| Star Realm | 578 | Elemental Power and the Law of Fire merge perfectly. Chu Han's Origin Core becomes an eternal star containing the energy of two stars, and every strand of his Elemental Power carries Fire Law power. |
| Star Sea Realm / ten billion stellar force | 625 | By devouring the energy of successive star systems, Chu Han raises his Elemental Power to ten billion units of Stellar Power, one percent of the minimum energy requirement for the Star Domain Realm. |
| Fifty billion stellar force | 629 | Completely devouring a million-light-year-wide galaxy increases Chu Han's original Elemental Power fivefold, reaching the strength of fifty billion stars. |
| One hundred billion stellar force | 636 | Refining the remains and resources of five Cosmic Behemoths raises Chu Han's reserves to one hundred billion stellar force. |
| One trillion stellar force | 645 | After refining Yemen Caesar and his followers, Chu Han's Elemental Power undergoes a qualitative leap to one trillion units of Stellar Power. |
| Star Sea Realm ceiling / perfected Origin Laws | 646 | Rather than immediately entering the Star Domain Realm, Chu Han continues accumulating Origin Essence and tempering his foundation; his reserves exceed one hundred trillion stellar force while his comprehension of nearly all Origin Laws reaches the Star Sea Realm limit. |
| Chaos-enhanced reserves / five hundred trillion stellar force | 651 | The Chaos Wheel refines the Beast King's Star Domain Origin and Dark Divine Power into pure Chaos energy. Absorbing it perfects Chu Han's Origin Laws, deeply stabilizes his Chaos Law, and raises his Elemental Power to five hundred trillion stellar force. |
| Six hundred trillion stellar force | 657 | Refining a point of Fire Origin Power and a Cosmic Energy Crystal raises Chu Han's reserves from five hundred trillion to six hundred trillion stellar force. |
| Quadrillion stellar force | 661 | After devouring all remaining Beast Race resources in the Chaos Domain, Chu Han's Elemental Power crosses the quadrillion-stellar-power threshold, more than a thousand times the ordinary Star Sea Realm limit. |
| More than ten thousand drops of condensed Origin Power | 696 | After refining the Insect Race Queen's accumulated Origin reserves, Chu Han's Elemental Power reaches its Star Sea Realm limit and autonomously condenses more than ten thousand drops of Origin Power. Each drop is refined to an extreme purity, with a single drop nearly equaling the total quantity and power of ten thousand ordinary drops. |
| Staircase-compressed Origin Power | 703 | The ruin's staircase compresses Chu Han's Origin Power by a factor of ten, reducing ten thousand drops to one thousand while greatly increasing the quality and force of each remaining drop. Surpassing the staircase's apparent limit causes its energy to generate additional Origin Power within him. |
| First-Order to Twentieth-Order Star Domain Realm / Chaos Origin | 705 | Chu Han completes the fusion of his perfected Chaos Law with his foundation and formally enters the First-Order Star Domain Realm. The ruin's rule energy, nearby Chaos Stones, and Rice Crystals then propel him to the Twentieth Order; his compressed Origin Power exceeds that of an ordinary Fiftieth-Order expert. |
| Chaos Divine Power reserve | 708 709 | After refining a Chaos Godstone, Chu Han forms five drops of true Chaos Divine Power and converts his remaining Phoenix Divine Power into the same compatible force. He uses it to illuminate and dismantle the Rune Divine Array guarding the Chaos Hall, with the array's energy restoring and strengthening his exhausted reserve. |
| Fortieth-Order Star Domain Realm / devouring superior Origin Power | 715 | After continued refinement in the ruins, Chu Han reaches the Fortieth Order. His Chaos Origin devours an invading Origin Impact from an Eightieth-Order veteran, while his Immortal Divine Body rapidly repairs the resulting injuries. |
Properties and Cultivation
Ambient cosmic energy
Elemental Power is a special cosmic energy existing between heaven and earth. A human body's cells absorb it naturally during ordinary activity, using it to strengthen the Physical Body. Martial artists differ by being able to actively draw it into themselves and manipulate it for supernatural effects. Greater internal reserves generally correspond to greater strength 5.
At cosmic levels, Elemental Power can be accumulated and measured as Stellar Power. Chu Han can create an Elemental Power vortex, combine it with the Gravity Law, and devour the energy of entire star systems to turn their celestial bodies into cultivation resources 625.
At still higher levels, Elemental Power can fuse with a comprehended Origin Law to produce Origin Power. Origin Power is a more tangible and concentrated force than ordinary Elemental Power and forms the foundation for the Star Domain Realm and eventual Divine Power 641.
Physical Body and Dantian
Before martial artist initiation, absorbed Elemental Power is consumed in strengthening the Physical Body. The body acts as the vessel that will eventually contain cultivated energy; a stronger vessel can bear greater reserves in the future 5.
Once the body reaches the required level, absorbed energy begins storing itself in the Dantian. This storage marks formal entry into the martial artist ranks and permits cultivation of dedicated cultivation methods 5 61.
The capacity and quality of this storage can be increased through bloodline evolution. Chu Han's fusion of Giant Whale Blood and Cosmic White Whale bloodline greatly enlarges his Dantian, condenses the energy within it, and gives him an exceptionally large reserve 385.
At the Martial Saint stage and above, Origin Cores and the Dantian can jointly serve as reservoirs. Chu Han eventually reabsorbs his ninety-nine external Origin Cores into his body, storing their vast energy through his Dantian and meridians 462.
At the Star Sea Realm's limit, Elemental Power can automatically transform into Origin Power. Chu Han's Origin Power is unusually compressed and pure, with each drop possessing far more force than the equivalent amount of ordinary Origin Power 696.
Cultivation methods
Cultivation methods are specialized techniques for training Elemental Power. They may produce an attribute even in a cultivator without the matching innate talent; for example, a Fire Attribute method can allow its user to release flames 5.
- Matching an awakened talent to a cultivation method of the same attribute greatly improves cultivation efficiency and the power of compatible martial skills 5.
- The Heavenly Flame Secret Codex can fuse innate flames with Origin Energy, increasing flame power severalfold and improving the user's sensitivity to Fire Attribute energy 158.
- The Yu Shen Art can refine energy of different types and attributes into pure, attribute-less energy for absorption 411.
- After reaching its second layer, the Yu Shen Art integrates Chu Han's earlier cultivation methods and permanently fuses the ultimate flame power of the Nine Transformations of Heavenly Fire into his Elemental Power 425.
- Primal Devouring can devour planets, Spirit Treasures, and many forms of energy, assimilating them into the user's own power and enabling Chu Han's later astronomical-scale accumulation 559 625.
- The completed Chaos Law fuses Chu Han's perfected laws into Chaos Origin, allowing his Elemental Power and Origin Power to contain the properties of multiple laws, including time and space 704 705.
- The Chaos Godstone provides a compatible route for condensing true Chaos Divine Power, allowing Chu Han to replace his remaining Phoenix Divine Power with a force sharing the origin of his Chaos foundation 708.
Applications
Physical enhancement
Elemental Power strengthens the Physical Body both through passive absorption and deliberate cultivation. It can improve strength, reinforce defenses, and support transformations or combat states 5 385.
- Fire Attribute Origin Energy flowing through Molten Crystal Armor improves physical strength while supporting fire-based attacks 37.
- Giant Whale Blood enhancement enlarges the Dantian and raises the upper limit of Elemental Power storage 385.
- Scarlet origin essence can increase reserve depth, purity, meridian toughness, and physical strength without directly advancing a cultivator's realm 548.
- At high levels, the energy acquired through devouring planetary systems, Cosmic Behemoths, and Chaos energy simultaneously tempers Chu Han's Elemental Power and Immortal Divine Body 625 651.
- A Cosmic Energy Crystal can provide one hundred trillion units of pure, attribute-less energy, raising Chu Han's overall Elemental Power foundation without introducing attribute conflict 657.
- The pressure of the ruin's staircase compresses Origin Power and causes the staircase's energy to generate new reserves after the cultivator surpasses its apparent limit 703.
- After entering the Star Domain Realm, Chu Han's compressed Origin Power and Immortal Divine Body allow him to fight opponents many ranks above his displayed cultivation 705 715.
- Chaos Origin can consume hostile Origin Power and convert it into nourishment, while the Immortal Divine Body repairs damage caused by stronger attacks 715.
Martial skills and weapons
Advanced martial techniques may require Elemental Power to function at full strength. The fourth form of the Seven Forms of the Army Breaker cannot normally reach its intended power without sufficient energy infusion 5.
- Elemental Power can be infused into weapons to enhance their might 5.
- The Flame Demon Battle Saber amplifies injected Fire Attribute Origin Energy, producing heat beyond what Chu Han's own input would normally generate 77.
- Sky-Shattering Saber Art places extraordinary demands on reserves and physical strength; an ordinary 8th Rank martial artist may be exhausted or injure their meridians after using even one stance 258.
- Elemental Power can be released externally as attacks of varying attributes, such as the flames generated by Flame Explosive Fist 5 48.
- Spirit artifacts can consume both Spiritual Power and Elemental Power to enhance their effects. The Skybreaking Shuttle can amplify its user's injected power severalfold and devour incoming Elemental Power attacks 424.
- At the Star Realm, every strand of Chu Han's Elemental Power bears Fire Law power, greatly increasing the quality and lethality of his fire-based attacks 578.
- At the Star Domain Realm, Chaos Origin can be channeled through the Chaos Wheel, allowing it to swallow and dissolve attacks containing Origin Power and even Dark Divine Power 650.
- Chaos Divine Power can activate and dismantle divine-level formations that ordinary Elemental Power and Origin Power cannot overcome 709.
Defensive barriers
Martial artists can form barriers from their Elemental Power to shield themselves and others.
- The wardens of Frost Prison use attribute-specific barriers to protect against the Prison Beast's devouring black energy 414.
- Chu Han creates a red barrier around Fifth Prison's experts because direct contact with the black energy could rapidly consume their Elemental Power 414.
- At higher levels, colliding Elemental Power attacks can form destructive storms capable of devastating large areas 408.
- Elemental Power can be used with defensive treasures such as the Yellow Springs Mirror; Chu Han's Origin Energy and Flame God Fire enable the mirror to block a Beast Emperor's fire attack 320.
- The Immortal Divine Body can reinforce Elemental Power defenses at cosmic scales, allowing Chu Han to survive attacks from much higher-ranked Star Domain experts and recover from severe injuries 634 715.
Devouring and large-scale absorption
High-level cultivation can use Elemental Power as both the medium and result of large-scale devouring.
- Star Beasts and Star Beasts' crystal cores can yield exceptionally pure Origin Energy that is directly absorbable, allowing rapid cultivation gains 126.
- Fire God Crystals contain violent, pure Fire Attribute energy capable of greatly accelerating Fire Attribute cultivation and breakthroughs 317.
- Through the Gravity Law and an Elemental Power vortex, Chu Han can draw apart celestial bodies and absorb their pure origin energy 625.
- The origin energy of living experts provides faster growth than the relatively inert energy of celestial bodies 630.
- The Chaos Wheel can refine Star Domain Origin and Dark Divine Power into purified Chaos energy suitable for absorption 651.
- The Insect Race Queen's accumulated Origin reserves can be completely divided and refined, causing Chu Han's Elemental Power to condense into large quantities of exceptionally pure Origin Power 696.
- The ruin's rule energy, Chaos Stones, and Rice Crystals can be absorbed during a Star Domain breakthrough, rapidly raising Chu Han's displayed rank while further compressing his Origin Power 705.
- A Chaos Godstone can be refined into Chaos Divine Power, which is compatible with Chu Han's Chaos Origin and can replace foreign divine energy within his foundation 708.
- Chaos Divine Power, Origin Power, and Spiritual Power can together awaken a dormant high-level artifact or entity when ordinary energy cannot affect it 711.
Attributes and Compatibility
Elemental Power may carry elemental attributes such as fire, lightning, ice, wind, darkness, earth, and metal 5 576.
- Fire Attribute — Supports flame techniques and can be fused with innate flames into stronger forms of Dragon Fire Origin Energy 158.
- Lightning Attribute — Can temper the body more strongly than Fire Attribute energy and is used in lightning-based attacks and domains 49 550.
- Ice Attribute — Frigid Elemental Power may conflict violently with Fire Attribute energy when they meet in the meridians 411.
- Darkness Attribute — Can corrode those lacking the proper attribute or sufficient cultivation, though the Yu Shen Art can absorb and refine it 489.
- Wind, rain, wood, water, light, metal, and earth Attributes — These, alongside fire, lightning, and darkness, are among the Origin Law systems Chu Han later comprehends to the Star Sea Realm's ceiling 646.
- Chaos Attribute — Chaos is produced when perfected Origin Laws are fused through the Chaos Wheel. Chaos Origin can contain and unify the properties of many other laws, while Chaos Divine Power represents its higher divine expression 650 704 708.
Opposing attributes are not inherently safe to absorb together. When Chu Han attempts to absorb frigid energy while primarily cultivating Fire Attribute power, the two energies clash painfully inside his meridians before his fire energy devours the cold energy 411.
Fire and lightning are likewise both violent attributes. Chu Han's attempt to cultivate them simultaneously initially causes a destructive clash in his body and meridians before they merge into a new mixed form of Elemental Power under the support of his body-tempering technique 49.
The Yu Shen Art can overcome many such compatibility restrictions by refining foreign energy into pure, attribute-less energy before absorption 411.
At the Origin level, the Seven-Colored Sea can reshape a cultivator's foundation and allow normally incompatible laws to be comprehended without rejection. Chu Han uses this effect to absorb Thunder Origin Law Essence despite having never cultivated the Thunder Law before 641.
Chaos Origin provides a more advanced form of compatibility. By containing and unifying many perfected laws, it prevents the conflicting attributes that would normally arise from simultaneous law cultivation 704 705.
Higher-Level Development
Origin Cores
Origin Cores are condensed energy structures that can store and release substantial Elemental Power. Chu Han uses the Outer Core Condensation Method to form multiple external Origin Cores rather than relying on only one 427 445.
- Martial Saint Origin Cores provide dense Elemental Power and may preserve insights into Domains 461.
- Ninety-nine external cores produce a geometric increase in output rather than a simple additive increase 461.
- At sufficient scale, the resulting Elemental Power can rival a first-stage Martial God's eruption despite the user not yet reaching that realm 461.
- After their use, Chu Han can merge the external cores back into his body as energy stored through his Dantian and meridians 462.
- After reaching the Martial God Realm, the external cores are absorbed into Chu Han's golden Origin Core, which becomes an apparently inexhaustible energy source 516.
- At the Star Realm, the Origin Core transforms into an eternal star containing the energy of two stars, making Stellar Power the dominant measurement of his reserves 578.
- At the Star Sea Realm's limit, the Elemental Power within the Origin Core condenses into Origin Power, which is then refined into Chaos Origin when fused with the completed Chaos Law 696 704 705.
Domains and laws
Elemental Power becomes increasingly dependent on Domains and laws at higher cultivation levels.
- Domains can suppress an opponent's movement and Elemental Power circulation, as Bu Luo's Earth Law does against Chu Han 574.
- A cultivator must unite their comprehended laws with their Elemental Power to enter the Star Realm 578.
- After Chu Han's Star Realm breakthrough, his Elemental Power intrinsically carries the Law of Fire 578.
- At the Star Sea Realm, Origin Law Essence can transform a cultivator's Physical Body, Elemental Power, and Divine Soul while dramatically deepening their comprehension of the corresponding law 641.
- The hidden threshold for entering the Star Domain Realm is the condensation of Origin Power, a tangible force produced when Elemental Power and an Origin Law fuse completely. Origin Power is also the prototype from which Divine Power may eventually be forged 641.
- Chu Han's Chaos Wheel can fuse perfected Origin Laws—including fire, lightning, wind, gravity, light, darkness, metal, wood, water, and earth—into Chaos Power, a superior force that can dissolve Dark Divine Power 650.
- Chaos energy completes the final ascension of Chu Han's Origin Laws and leaves a stable, deeply engraved Chaos Law imprint in his foundation 651.
- The completed Chaos Law encompasses the perfected Time Law, Spatial Law, and other Origin Laws. Fusing it with his foundation transforms Chu Han's Origin Power into Chaos Origin 704 705.
- Chaos Origin can devour ordinary Origin Power and resist or dissolve attacks from laws that are individually superior to ordinary Elemental Power 650 715.
- Divine Power exists above Origin Power and is normally required to enter the core of the ruins. Chu Han temporarily uses Phoenix Divine Power, then develops a compatible Chaos Divine Power reserve of his own 707 708.
- Chaos Divine Power reveals and dismantles the Rune Divine Array blocking the Chaos Hall, demonstrating that it can interact with restrictions beyond the reach of ordinary laws 709.
Stellar Power and cosmic reserves
After the Star Realm, Elemental Power is measured on an astronomical scale as Stellar Power.
- Refining a Star Heart can assimilate the energy of an entire star into the user's Elemental Power 578.
- Devouring multiple star systems raises Chu Han's reserves to ten billion stellar force, while his later consumption of a galaxy raises them to fifty billion 625 629.
- The ordinary Star Sea Realm minimum for the Star Domain Realm is one trillion stellar force, but Chu Han deliberately postpones his breakthrough to strengthen an otherwise loose foundation far beyond that benchmark 641 646.
- By the end of the Chaos Domain war, Chu Han's Elemental Power reaches quadrillion stellar force, vastly exceeding ordinary Star Sea Realm limits despite his continued lack of a formal Star Domain Realm breakthrough 661.
- After formal advancement to the Star Domain Realm, the ruin's resources raise Chu Han to the Twentieth Order, while his compressed Origin Power exceeds the reserves of an ordinary Fiftieth-Order cultivator 705.
- Chu Han's displayed Star Domain rank continues rising through foundation refinement, reaching the Fortieth Order while his Chaos Origin remains capable of devouring attacks from far higher-ranked opponents 715.
Spiritual Power control
Spiritual Power improves the precision with which Elemental Power can be purified, compressed, and integrated into Origin Cores 461.
It also improves the activation of spirit artifacts that rely on both Spiritual Power and Elemental Power, including the Skybreaking Shuttle's amplification and devouring functions 424 461.
At the sixth realm, Spiritual Power can directly influence reality. This grants Chu Han the perception and control needed to locate concealed Origin Law Essences and supports his absorption of multiple laws without ordinary rejection 621 641.
With the Spirit-Calming Pearl's assistance and the nourishment of the Insect Race Queen's origin, Chu Han's Spiritual Power surpasses the ordinary Sixth Realm and reaches the threshold of the Seventh Realm, improving his ability to predict attacks and control Origin Power precisely 695 702.
Seventh-Realm Spiritual Power allows Chu Han to detect flaws in restrictions that cannot be overcome through brute force. It enables him to contact the damaged Stele Spirit and learn that Divine Power, rather than ordinary Elemental Power or Origin Power, is required to enter the ruins' core 707.
Limitations
- Insufficient Elemental Power prevents full use of energy-dependent martial techniques 5.
- Rapidly mobilizing Fire Attribute Origin Energy places considerable strain on the meridians 48.
- Vast reserves alone do not guarantee victory; Domains can hinder energy circulation, and higher-realm opponents possess stronger forms of Elemental Power 574.
- Elemental Power attacks, spirit artifacts, secret arts, and even an antimatter weapon fail to damage the restriction sealing the Great Wilderness Desert's Independent Space 446.
- Powerful formations can suppress Elemental Power, ordinary cosmic laws, and energy currents simultaneously. The Pentagram Origin Formation can restrict these forces, though Chu Han's Spacetime Origin Law remains unaffected 634.
- High-output techniques and extreme time acceleration can leave Elemental Power depleted and burden the user's soul, even when the expenditure is manageable compared with an opponent's losses 634.
- Condensing Origin Power requires both sufficient Elemental Power and deep fusion with an Origin Law; ordinary accumulation cannot by itself overcome the Star Domain Realm bottleneck 641.
- Chu Han's immense foundation makes further realm advancement increasingly difficult. Even after gaining five hundred trillion Stellar Power and perfected Chaos Origin, he requires a special opportunity rather than simple accumulation to enter the Star Domain Realm 651 656.
- Chaos Stones contain violent, impure energy that ordinary cultivators cannot safely absorb. Chu Han can use them only because of his Immortal Divine Body and Chaos Origin Law 677.
- Origin Power may be compressed by external restrictions, reducing its quantity even as its quality rises. The ruin's staircase forces this process and requires the cultivator to surpass the resulting limit before it generates additional power 703.
- Ordinary Origin Power cannot satisfy the final restriction before the Chaos Hall. Only Divine Power can qualify a cultivator to pass, making Elemental Power and Origin Power insufficient regardless of their quantity 707.
- Chaos Divine Power requires a compatible source such as the Chaos Godstone. Before obtaining it, Chu Han can only produce small amounts of divine power by refining the residual Phoenix Divine Power within his foundation 707 708.
