The main characters aren't saintly or resentful; they possess incredible fighting power but are extremely cautious about their lives, emphasizing a survival-oriented cultivation path! While others engage in magical battles and vie for opportunities, they hide behind earthen walls and throw fireballs, turning cultivation into a trench warfare guerrilla war—a mix of cowardice and strength, brimming with laughs; they fight monsters only to earn spirit stones and eat beast meat, cultivating in a Buddhist style while constantly pretending to be weak while actually being strong. When villains come to rob them, they instantly kill them—a truly exhilarating experience! The plot moves at a super fast pace, with no melodramatic clichés or heart-wrenching moments.
