The Guest, is in the true sense, cultivating for immortality.
Visualization is originally a secret technique of Daoist and Buddha, fundamental to the initial cultivation of the inner core.
It's also about mind contemplation and mind cultivation.
Thus, the Guest can clearly understand Chen Tiancai and their thoughts, break through illusions, and intuitively see into their hearts.
Their pursuit of origins, though sincere and merely out of curiosity, ultimately leads to the path of becoming immortals.
This is similar to what some classic texts state, that a person without desires simply seeks the Dao of immortals and Buddhas.
But seeking immortals and Buddhas is in itself a desire.
In the end, regardless of whether he seeks to become immortal or not, he has become one, this is an established fact.
There's no pivotal necessity for mind cultivation; whatever is cultivated is external power, a gift.
This notion does not exist.
