Du Hong has been feeling quite frustrated lately.
It has been since the beginning of the Immortal Calendar that she acquired her cultivation technique, yet now, in the year 27, she remains merely at the Innate level.
Harvesting Yang to Supplement Yin, essentially a heterodox method, could at most solidify her foundation and regulate her vital energy, but could not transform quantity into quality.
Because her foundation differed, having chosen the path of supplementation, she must continue to harvest without end, unless she chooses to dissipate her power and start anew with the inner core or the essence-consuming method.
She started from a foot therapy wellness facility, worked her way up to control the entire bath and leisure industry in Bashu, expanded further, influenced sister companies everywhere, acquired hundreds of thousands of disciples, and was famed far and wide across the regions south of Yangtze River—truly a legendary tale... but now, she was sixty years old.
