Ok I think I will have to add some informations about Cultivation and Xianxia stuff.
Cultivation: Training special technics that allow one to gather Qi and become immortal
Demons: Spiritual animals that reached a certain grade in cultivation and got immortal. They can switch between a humanform and their original form.
Levels of Cultivation:
Bodystage
Gatheringstage (lifespann 150 years)
Compressionstage (lifespann 200 years)
Foundationstage (lifespann 500 years)
Corestage (lifespann 1200 years)
Thats only the the temporal ranking and I will add some later stages in the course of the fiction.
Chapter 5: Dao of Jerna
„Well you know, it's been entirly your foult they died. Pretty funny, when taking inro accound that your a descendant of the Jerna Clan.“
The girl ingnored the him and franaticly searched for space fluactions that would betray his position.
„But well you could see it as some kind of fate, right? The Jerna Clan rose becourse of the humans and fall becourse of the humans and know they died just becourse of you a descendant of their clan.“
„Not to mantion that yo...“
„Shut up“
The girl shout with an angry face. Deep in side of her regret and sorrow rose and trubbled her heart.
„One word more and I will tear out this ugly tongue of yours and stuff it into your troat until you soffucate.“
She felt a fluaction behind her and quickly turned around and in last minute managed to block a sword from slicing her troat.
„How long are you planing to hide you cowert, hm? Or are you just to little of a man to fight without tricks. Oh well thats ofcourse if you are even a man.“
She moked him with a smilling face.
„Sorry to let you down, but I'm not dump enouth to play fair against someone on the corestage while only beeing on the foundationstage. Even more if the person is following the Dao of Jerna.“

This will ne quite hard. He seems to follow the dao of space. I have to some how gat him out of his hiding.
Each cultivator follows at least one dao and there are some that follow mutiple. Dao's are the principles all the demonic techniques follow. They could be seen as a kind of natural law that controlles the cultivationworld.
Every dao is profound and difficult to comprehend, but there are different grades of daos with different strenghts and grades of difficulty. The higher the grade of a dao the ones dao, the stronger but also harder to comprehend it is. The grade of ones dao also effects ones abillity to attent to a higher cultivation stage.
A cultivation with a low grade dao would find it easier to to coprehend his dao but would find a limit in his cultivationprogress.
Dao's are splitten into three greater grades and 9 lesser grades.
The lowest grade is lesser earthgrade, than comes middle earthgrade and upper earthgrade. After that there was the lesser dragongrade, middle dragongrade and upperdragongrade and the most profound daos where the lesser heavengrade, middle heavengrade and upper heavengrade. There are legends about even higher daos but this legends go back to the time humans where still cultivating.
Generally speaken people that followed a earthgrade dao only made it to the corestage and stagnated there until their deaths, while the ones that followed dragondaos would even have the chance to become immortals demons. The ones that managed to follow a heavengrade dao would almost centainly become immortals and would have a mutch quicker cultivation speed once they manage to comprehend their dao to a certain degree.
Out of the 9 grade's that exist the dao of space is a lesser dragondao beeing not that bad in comparison to earthgrade one's but also not as profound as the middle heavengrade dao of Jerna.

So if one where to compare the strengh of the demon girl and the one of the green clad man there would be a huge difference of power.
Althought the dao of space was only a havengrade it had some merits that made it almost as strong as a heavengrade dao, if one wouldn't know it's weakness.
A cultivator that followed the dao of space could easily merge with the space and make sneak attacts without beeing found. This makes them strong assasins that could even compete against people that are an entire stage beyond them.
They only have to pay attantion not to get to close to their targets since they produce slight space fluactions while moving.
Nomally you couldn't see them since they where realy small, but if you fight against someone of a higher stage, he could sence them as long as you are close anought or when you are starting a attack.
„Well since you won't come out and fight like a man, I guess I will have to force you out. Let's see if you dare to stay merged with the space if i fill it with cracks.“
She made some quick and complicated handseals and let her Dan rotate even quicker.
Thick Qi emanded and swilled around her. With a final handseal the Qi condansated and a explosion occured followed by a strong wave of engery, tearing apart the space.
The green clad man quickly ended his merging and one again stood before her.
