    The end of a novel is the pursuit of enlightenment! Who told you novels aren't literature? Many novels, though mentioning the Investiture of the Gods, possess a very high overall cultural depth. While different from realistic fiction, novels may feature cultivators who can traverse heaven and earth. But even within the same cultivation world, some write about fighting and killing, while others focus on brotherhood. The key lies in what books you read and your own thoughts.
