42 History (1/2)
Dabria sat down next to Rob looking very happy that her plan had worked out. ”I bet you have about a thousand questions for me.I'll take my time and give you an overview of the cultivators history.”She looked at him ready to explode, she had been waiting a long time to tell her friends about cultivation.The problem was this was her secret to keep if any of her friends found out there could be very bad ramifications for her.No to mention her friends would think she was crazy hearing such an insane story.
Rob nodded saying, ”I'm guessing there are so many things I don't even know about.I guess I should ask you to start out at the beginning.”
”Well it's not too bad if you know what cultivation is but I'm guessing you don't.Some people say that cultivation originated at the beginning of time when all people used to live together all worlds shared the same sky.Back then the world was chaotic and full powerful dangers to the races of the main planet.The consensus was that ancient heralds controlled the planet, all people began to look for a way to fight back.Not until the first cultivator appeared Recard Silb teaching the ways of cultivation to the first of all races.Each learning a specific technique made for them to defeat the old heralds.
”At first the old heralds laughed at the little people tried to resist them, so they sent their avatars to defeat these cultivators.Some were captured others killed....It wasn't until Recard mobilized a team of their strongest cultivators that the first avatar was made to retreat lest he be defeated.Many battles were fought with so many of the strongest experts dying to fight back against the heralds.The fights were so powerful that the land broke, dividing their battlegrounds creating the first planets.The problem was the avatars kept on fighting relentless assaults on cities continued leaving them in ashes.The first sign of hope happened when Recard defeated the first of all the avatars.
”The heralds were extremely angry with their avatars being defeated, although they could do nothing but watch them slowly lose the war.You see they could not pass to the mortal realm and could only effect things in a small scale without their avatars.So, they did the next best thing for them and began to corrupt the very beings that fought against them.They bestowed powerful cultivation techniques gave them unimaginable powers to defeat their worst enemies.All they asked for was loyalty worship and the death of their enemies.
”Recard now was not only fighting strong avatars of the once former heralds, he also had to fight strong cultivators.Eventually Recard was cornered into a trap setup by his most trusted adviser Benton whom was now an agent of one of the ancient gods.It is said that Recard defeated Benton with many avatars that had followed but was mortally wounded from the fight.In the end he gave what he knew of cultivation to his five of his disciples sending them away.Many asked why not the strongest in his last moments he said they were the only ones who were not tainted by the powers of the avatars.He said this looking at the rest of them knowing that they had given into the powers of the heralds flowing through them.They charged at him in his weakened state knowing there was not much he could do to fight them off. They say Recard smiled in his last moments dealing a dangerous blow to the heralds as he activated a powerful formation obliterating the now corrupt disciples.
”Eventually the five disciples that had taken his mantle began to shape the planets into habitats for the survivors.No one really knows how many worlds there are out there just that they were set up to fight against the ancient heralds.Each of them began their own schools of fighting to protect these worlds this is the greatest reason why cultivators exist.”
When she finished the story, Rob was fascinated they had such an in depth past to them.
”Now I shall tell you about the factions here on earth, I don't know about much about the other dimensions.There are ten strong factions on earth each with their own elders and powerful backing.First is the Chinese faction by far the most traditional following much of their own culture into it.The Second is the Indian faction this is one of the most spiritual factions.Next is the Egyptian faction this faction is one of the smallest with barely five separate sects it is made up of the some of the most powerful cultivators on the planet.the Fourth faction is the dark continent faction which includes most of Africa this faction houses some of the wisest cultivators.Next is the Native American faction which is also very small due to loosing so many of its most powerful cultivators during the american cultivation wars they harness the power of spirit animal cultivation.These five make up the old age cultivators which have been around the beginning of the world.
”The next five are newer due the fact so much war had raged on killing various sects some which are as old as the last factions I have stated but have joined the new ones instead.First is my faction the Euro-Asia faction for many years at war they decided in the last few hundred years to make a treaty together it houses many of the knight families.Then the American faction this is more of a new age faction dealing with new techniques and weapons they are very smart in what they do.The third faction is the northern states faction they focus medicinal cultivation many of which provide aid to the other factions.The fourth faction is the South American faction whom employ deadly assassins and powerful beast tamer cultivators.Finally, the last faction and most recent to be made is the Island faction this one is one of the most diverse factions housing some of the most ancient sects.”
Once she finished her explanation Rob began to ask her questions, ”Which is the most powerful faction?Why was the game even created?What had happened to the demons?Why were there monsters out in the real world?”
