[Admiration] is a cultivation ensemble novel, leaning towards warmth, lightness, and humor. A large portion of the story focuses on how the female protagonist cultivates "flowers," how she views and saves the world from the perspective of an ordinary immortal disciple, rather than leveling up and fighting monsters. Conquering the world is never the goal of cultivators; cultivation is not an extension of social power, but rather the tempering and refinement of the heart. She is powerful yet tolerant, gentle yet humble, sometimes with a sharp tongue, but you can always feel love and warmth in her every word and action! The companions in the story are all portrayed as flesh and blood, each with their own strengths, all pursuing their own inner path.
