Chapter 1 {Common Enemies}

Spirit Beasts are creatures native to the Mother Eyuen Planet. They were born after god aura and divine beast aura leaked out from the Celestial Divine Realm onto the planet. They were regard as the first inhabitants of the planet before spirit masters appeared. There is a wide range of spirit beasts from different types to different species. They live in many different environments. The most common ones are the ocean and the forests. The most powerful spirit beasts are those that have cultivated to the 200,000 year old level. They are referred as Great Spirit Beasts. Some god ranked spirit beasts can be found in the Celestial Divine Realm and they are called Divine Beasts. Before the god war, spirit beasts were able to cultivate to the God Rank and become divine beasts. Since the defeat of the Aura Heavenly Dragon God in the Blood Moon God War, there was a restriction placed on the spirit beasts to make sure it was near impossible for any divine beasts to be born from the spirit beasts. Plant type spirit beasts are exempted from this restriction.

In the beginning of history, spirit beasts are known to be at the top of the food chain, then spirit masters appeared. After that, the number of spirit beasts was steady at first, but started to go down a little as the human population increased and more spirit masters appeared. The Celestial Divine Realm maintained the balance between humans and spirit beasts until they were sucked away by a space-time turbulence. This caused the Mother Eyuen Planet to become managed and humanity started rapidly advancing technology and over hunting spirit beasts, causing the spirit beasts to be near extinction. Many Spirit Beast went into hiding making them hate mankind deep within there hearts.

The actual age and the cultivation age of the spirit beasts are not the same sometimes. For the references, the cultivation age is used. The cultivation age can be increased by many ways. For examples, the cultivation age of the immortal herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Lake can be multiplied by ten. The presence of Three Eyed Golden White Tiger increases the cultivation age of the spirit beasts in the Great Star Fairy Forest much faster. It truly depends on where that spirit beast is living and how they are cultivating there energies.

Spirit Beasts have Warrior Spirit, spirit power, spiritual power, Element Ra, and bloodline power like spirit masters do. Spirit beasts can change to a human form when they reach 100,000 years old. Spirit Beast understand in there powers is much greater then most humans so they are able to truly grip on anything easily making them genius and no one can truly tell who is a spirit beast.

Spirit beasts are mainly the same as normal animals in the way that they reproduce or have children. It mainly depends on the type of spirit beast. It is a mystery how some spirit beasts are able to be reborn after they became extinct.

Spirit Beasts at a young age, are not that intelligent compared to humans. Its only when they reach 120,000 years old, they gain the same intelligent on par with a human and they are able to talk as well. Before then, they slowly mature. A 10,000 year old pink mist Qiu queen has the intellect of a little kid.

Some spirit beasts are able to talk and have the intelligent of a human before they cultivated to 120,000 years. These spirit beasts are nobles or royalty in the spirit beast world and have unique bloodlines.

But what makes human want spirit beasts is what they drop when they die. When a spirit beast dies, they drop something called a Saint Spirit Ring. This ring contains all the cultivation, the spirit beast has accumulated throughout its life as well as the innate ability it was born with. The grade of the ring is determined by the spirit beast's age or cultivation level. Warrior Spirit Masters and Element Ra Masters kill spirit beasts for their Saint Spirit Rings.

Pink: 10 year old spirit beast

White: 100 year old spirit beast

Yellow: 1,000 year old spirit beast

Purple: 10,000 year old spirit beast

Black: 30,000 year old spirit beast

Blue: 70,000 year old spirit beast

Red: 120,000 year old spirit beast

Orange: 300,000 year old spirit beast

Gold: 1,000,000 year old spirit beast

The older the spirit beast the harder it is to kill i and the stronger it will be one it dies.

Demons are creatures of darkness originating from one of the lower planes of existence. While they can be found in various places through Thera Planet, their main population is focused on a hidden planet that no human has ever found. Demons have lived for billions of years they are more mysterious then spirit beast. For humans are evil demon creatures, that all they want to do is kill. In truth yes demons have strong yet powerful killing instinct but that doesn't mean all demons have the idea to kill anyone the see. In demon world the world is ruled by the strong if you are weak no matter what you will either die be stomped on. Demons have cruel nature but they can also be extremely kind of they want. Demons are outstanding on keeping there emotion within there hearts, they can also use demonic aura to frighten people who aren't use to them. Demons are a highly varied species with different traits and colors depending on a variety of factors. However these demons tend to be humanoid in shape and all seem to have horns of some sort as well as tails. Demons are also great shapeshifters, able to morph themselves into any sentient species.

The species has a large pool of various traits or features that show up depending on what Orb of Influence they were born into. While the features are not set in stone, about 95% of the species seem to stick to the stereotypes of their Orb. Demons aren't able to reproduce in their home dimension, scholars have concluded that this is a limitation of the infernal realm itself to regulate demonic population since demons are reincarnated when slain and don't vanish. In Thea however, this limitation does not exist, and demons are free to reproduce and are even encouraged by those in command. This is because even though demons reincarnate, they do so in their home plane, and are therefore locked out of Thera Planet and soldiers are lost. This rate of loss is regained through mating. Once a couple conceives, the child will develop quickly and adhere to the features of the dominant parent, morphing through it's life rather than from birth. The child born will be rather plain looking, with only small horns and coloration marking his race, a perfect blank canvas for the transformation through adulthood. However if a Demon bares a child of or through a creature of a different race, the child will be a half-fiend; usually looking greatly like the non-demon parent but being able to manifest demonic features.

A demon child is born as a blank canvas with only small horns and tails along with skin coloration marking them. Once they begin to grow, their body begins to change and adapt similar features of the dominant parent. A child will reach physical maturity in little over 16 years and will be considered a full adult.

Demons are omnivores, but highly preferring meat, and while cooked is preferable they are fully able to eat raw meat. They are also very resistant to starvation and can go slightly over a month without a bite to eat before they are in any danger. Some of the higher classes of demons also indulge in the consumption of souls in their home realm, this is considerably more difficult to accomplish in Thera Planet.

Demons are divided by their "Orb of influence" which is directly responsible of their physical traits, a lot of their personality and their dominion of a capital sin. Each Orb has a certain hierarchy that works like a clan or family, with the patriarch/matriarch being referred to as the Prince or Princess respectively. Those under them are the knights, under those are the scribes, the blades and the bones and under all of these are the common demon folk that form the bulk of each Orb.

Demon Princes/ Princess: Have power comparable to Seraphim, and can only exist in their true form in their home plane, in order to be in Thera they must relinquish part of themselves back in their plane. This can be highly dangerous because the separate part can develop their own personality and betray the prince upon his return, or he slain by the complete and far stronger princes, making them lose their hellish kingdom. The princes embody the characteristic of the capital sin of their Orb, making them volatile and highly dangerous. Unlike other demons, not just anyone can become a prince, and only the strongest of the strongest can even be considered. This has made it so other demon folk deify the Princes as eternal rulers of their Orb, and considering the power they command, they might as well be.

Knights: Are the highest position any demon can realistically aim for. Knights are handpicked by the Demon Princes and are incredibly powerful, mirroring the power of angels. Basically being the nobles of the demons, they command their own forces under the service of their prince and are the champions of their respective Orb. Each of the orbs has no more than 130 Knights at any single point.

Scribes: Are the highly educated and intelligent demons that form the backbone of each Orb. These are masters of various topics and much like their name states, are responsible of recording important events concerning their Prince and Orb. They are smart killers, taking their time with their target whenever needed to actually kill. They are great at sewing distrust and fear through their enemies' forces, opening them up for the knights and the others. While they do their best to keep out of physical combat, they can be a dangerous bunch when pushed against a corner.

Blades: are the strong warrior class of the Orb they serve, with mastery of many weapons and fighting types. They are less focused in outthinking their foes and more in overwhelming them with sheer power. This makes them incredibly dangerous when in combat, and less than friendly out of it. Often when out of the battlefield Blades can be found as guards and a policing force inside each Orb.

Bones: Are the mass of soldiers under a Prince, they are the lowest rank in the forces of each orb and are often treated as cannon fodder for the battles raged. This however can change with enough effort from a Bone, though unlikely, and can promote them through the ranks. They excel at overwhelming the enemy with sheer numbers and ferocity.

Demons have keen senses all around, are resilient in body and mind and are overall a highly dangerous race. Besides their physical attributes all demons have a good resistance to heat and fire. However this does not mean fire can't burn them, it just takes more time under an intense flame to do the deed.

The Demons have demonic kingdoms called "Telia Orbs of Influence" where each is ruled over by a prince or princess. Each Orb revolves around one of the capital sins and have their own micro-culture as well as a pool of traits and physical features the demons in them develop. Some Telia Orbs are bigger and stronger then others and some are smarter then others it all depends on who is ruling that place.

Demonic technology is largely dependent on magic, making it a necessity for all to know as little as a handful of spells. Unlike the magic originating from Thera Planet, Infernal magic taps into their home plane, drawing power from it through their blood and manifesting it as spells. To the people of Thera Planet, this sort of magic has a corrupted or tainted feel and look to it. Infernal magic has a different source and look to it, but aside from that it can be divided into the same types of magic as normal Thean magic such as illusion, elemental and necromantic magic. The demons in Thea, while cut off from their source plane, have managed to tap enough into their home magic to build tremendous magical machines and weapons to combat and keep up with the powerful dragons they face. They are some rare demons that don't need magical machine weapons to help them wield there magic these are royal bloodline demons, or nobles.

Little is known about demons races and how they truly live. They was once a demon that ruled over one hundred and twenty realms. It said in demon history this demons wasn't born in any noble family but more he was just a folk demon that wasn't special and that was over looked. But soon that demon grew up into one of the most fearsome demon prince the enter world has ever seen. The leader of the Bloodwing clan came to him and struck a deal, in exchange for his freedom and a place on their side in this new world they would be used as a weapon to be wielded by the clan, and scorch the land where the empire stood. The prince lashed out and snapped, but his chains were too tight and ruefully accepted the deal. He was then carved with various powerful runes of obedience and was told to go back to his plane and bring down a grand host, all of which would be marked same as he was.

Three hundred years passed since then, and the prince then returned through the hidden portal to Thera Planet, bearing the might of hundreds of thousands of demons under his command. The Clan then cast an immense spell to mark every single demon with runes of obedience, the plan was set in motion to take over the empire. The original plan accounted for a month an a half of planning to pass in order to have their forces ready, but the Bloodwing Clan grew restless with their demonic host, and only after a week they launched the first wave of attacks. The dragons of the empire were taken by surprise as an even larger portal than the first ripped the air above the center of the grand city, giving way to a hellish landscape from which poured out legions of demons and the Bloodwing Clan flying in front of them. Many heroes died in this wave, as the dragon faced an unknown foe, leaving the city scarred and broken as many fled while others stayed and fight to protect their empire. the draconic emperor and his host of champions however were a worthy foe, and managed to beat back the assault, delaying the defeat. The battle lasted a little under a week and by the end, the demons now held half the city as their own, this however was only the first attack.

This unknown prince was given theses kind of nickname Tyrant Red Blood Moon Demon God, Silent Butterfly Emperor, Thirteen Red Moon Demon God, Blood Terrior Demon God, Deadly Beautiful Flowers God, and Ruler of All Demons.

This prince name was Xug'droz. He was known as a person who didn't show any mercy to anyone it didn't matter weather they were kids, woman, man, old people he would kill without mercy no one knows what this Xug'droz looks like but those who have faced say that his someone you never want to face even his 100,000 common servants aren't demons to mess with. It also says that Xig'droz is a master of disguise and is someone who will play around but also a person who won't allow his people to be bullied everyone can say one thing is his a great ruler but also someone everyone is just frighten of. Each of the nicknames of a reasoning for this.

Legend has it when Xug'droz walk the entire sky turns red and the moon also changes colors into red. Rain starts dropping down into red blood, Silent Butterfly is a nickname that is given it his beautiful butterflies but also they are so deadly no one dares to touch those butterflies these butterflies are a mystery but people who have seen it these butterflies are extremely deadly and most frightening creatures they are so beautiful but what they do is just so cruel and they only follow one person and that's Xug'droz. Thirteen Red Moon Demon God in histroy it says that all demons are able hold there power within the sky and a moon will appear into a color for Xug'droz his moon wasn't just one but thirteen making him someone who felt like legend that no one wanted to cross or anger in a single way. Rumors has it Xug'droz has more then thirteen moons but no one would know because he never shows his face in front of other people and when he does it's because he is there to destroy something and whip out the enter demon clan families. One hundred million years Xug'droz has not shown his face in front other people.

Some say he left his empire, some say he is resting, some say his in deep cultivation, other say he long has died and has been reborn but has forgotten his memories. They all kinds of rumors of Xug'droz but each of them get crazier by the second.

Humans hunt demons because of their elixir rune core. This elixir rune core is where the mountain of there cultivation go through it gives them so much power when they use there elixir rune core they could fight for months days or even years without resting. Elixir Rune Core can be extremely dangerous like spirit beast when a demon dies a clear color elixir rune core cycle appears this allows the humans to use the same abilities as the demon they have killed. But they is a difference humans can't control the demon elixir rune core because of how much nature and care there master has put it in it so humans must get acknowledgement of those demons who they have killed or just overpower those demons if you can't do both the core will destroy you within and flow until it finds an owner who is worthy of it or until that demon is reborn which the elixir rune core is able to remember there master within a heart beat.

Spirit Beast and Demons both hate humans to the core and they would rather work together then ever be around humans. Even though spirit beasts and demons are different in many ways for them to be reborn is so mysterious. They are both common enemies and that's mankind and the gods.
