On the topic of making arts, whats up with the devil repurposing and reconstructing the Xiantain's art. I have a gist about the devil. I just think the Devil is a personality aspect of TW. Like we hear TE saying that LC and the mistress remind him of himself at certain stages of his life, but for MC we are completely our own person. It's highly likely that the soul portion TW initially gave us has become our devil due to grandpa's meddling. The thirst for Qi and cultivation is our devil. The devil screaming murder and us cultivating nonstop made up my mind. I think the Devil is basically us at our current strength tuned to 100. If we manage to completely master ourself at out current stage, we can probably be Xiantain level without advancing. We have that buffer strength due to us being a cultivator.
