1. The truth about the cultivation world: The world is a “farm” belonging to higher evil gods, and all cultivators and mortals are livestock.
2. The nature of power: Devouring “the indescribable” grants power, but accelerates the body’s mutation until one ultimately becomes a monster.
3. Spiritual energy contamination: The spiritual energy cultivators breathe in is actually contamination from evil gods, and those who ascend are harvested by the Heavenly Dao.
4. The price of immortality: The longer one lives, the less human one becomes. Some lose their flesh and skin, leaving only a skeleton; some turn into mountains of flesh; others become “living magical treasures.”
