   "The Vast and Void" is indeed such a novel. The miasma sea is born from delusions, so each layer deepens, each level and obstacle accumulating under the weight of heavy thoughts. The colors of the spirit stones in Kunling Kingdom are not simple! They correspond to the human chakras. Did you notice? Huozhou Mountain gathers the four elements, which is the energy pattern of the central channel in the human body. Below is water, the root chakra (kidneys), above is fire, corresponding to the heart. In the middle is wind. Earth, for us humans, is born from the bottom. Do you know what the first organ in our body is in our mother's womb? The anus! Did you understand the layout of all the secret realms? This is a book of cultivation, just presented as a novel. The layout of the hexagrams in Kunling Kingdom has a deeper meaning. Kun can cleanse.

    This book introduces mainstream cultivation methods from ancient times to the present, ranging from simple to profound. Ordinary people can practice these methods, and while they may not necessarily become immortals, they can certainly cultivate their character, improve their temperament, and prolong their lives. The sections on ghost immortals and human immortals are slightly exaggerated, but not excessively so. Those involving levels above deities inevitably have a more fantastical and mystical feel; these are merely the playful tales of novelists, offered for your perusal. True cultivation begins here. All beings are potential stars, and everyone can attain sainthood. [Heart][Heart][Heart][Heart]
