    Reader note

    In ancient times, the mortal path and the immortal path coexisted and shared a common origin. The mundane world, with its everyday life and the seven emotions of all beings, was the source of the Great Dao, while the spiritual energy of the immortal path was merely a tributary derived from the mortal path. To monopolize the Great Dao, the immortal sects launched the "War of Severing the Mortal World," severing the ties between heaven and earth and the mortal realm, sealing the source of the mortal path, and exterminating all mortal cultivators. From then on, an ironclad rule was established: abandon the mortal world, sever the seven emotions, and ascend the path to immortality. Ten thousand years later, spiritual energy is depleted, and the immortal path has entered its decline. The cultivators' hearts are cold and twisted, and high-ranking cultivators have become emotionless "living puppets." Meanwhile, in the abandoned mortal world, life continues from generation to generation, and the source of the mortal path quietly revives. The scattered legacies of the mortal path have become the only force capable of overthrowing the corrupt immortal path.
