   A classic fantasy novel, highly recommended! While many talk about cultivation novels, this one gave me a different perspective. It shows that humans are inherently human, and there's no need to forcefully increase spiritual energy for cultivation. The real thrill lies in exploring the hidden potential within the human body to cultivate the physical form and battling immortals. I'm looking forward to the later episodes, especially seeing the protagonist's journey of overcoming adversity and forging a unique path!
