It is something that will always be present within an immortal cultivator. Negative obsessions often result in the shattering of Tao Hearts—a cause of inner demons. Triumph against them and one’s Tao Heart will be strengthened instead.
Seele’s seven hundred years of obsession led to a positive growth. Mei’s eighteen years of torment is another example. 2025-12-15 14:29:01 +0000 UTC View Post
