The challenges a female cultivator has to overcome on her life journey are countless.
She mustn’t lack in talent, cultivation techniques, medicinal pills or magic weapons. Otherwise, her cultivation will progress too slowly.
She also mustn’t have too many emotions, weaknesses, kindness, or greed - if she has these in excess, she'll soon be saying hello to death.
Moreover, she mustn't look either too pretty or ugly.  Although she mustn’t be stupid, she also mustn't be too smart.
With all this in mind, a certain female cultivator sighs. Why's it so hard to become an Immortal?

Lady Cultivator

Although that shriveled old man looked like a <anno data-annotation-id="e3101722-d589-adb9-15d0-8eedf1ae7d39">dead tree</anno>, it was actually the middle-aged fellow Daoist who was named Daoist Kumu. On the contrary, the shriveled old man's name was quite a decent name—he was called Tong Tianyun.

Upon hearing what Qin Xi said, Daoist Kumu replied with a laugh, "Fellow Daoist Shoujing's too modest. What's so embarrassing about it? Core Formation cultivators like us, who've wasted several hundred years without making progress and didn't even have a chance to form our Nascent Souls, are extremely envious of you."

Qin Xi smiled and said nothing further. He moved to the side to make way then turned towards Mo Tiange. "Fellow Daoists, this is the junior martial sister I mentioned; her Daoist name is Qingwei."
