Answer 1

The origin of cultivation novels could be traced back to ancient Chinese Taoism and Buddhism, but these thoughts did not form a complete theoretical system. In the early 20th century, some authors began to incorporate Taoist and Buddhist ideas into their novels, forming some early cultivation novels.

One of the most famous authors was the Ming Dynasty novelist Wu Chengen. He wrote famous novels such as Journey to the West, which described some stories of immortals and demons. These stories were considered the pioneers of cultivation novels.

Later on, cultivation novels gradually developed into a popular online literature genre. Many famous authors had written cultivation novels such as Xiao Ding, Blood Red, Maoni, Heaven Choosing, Battle Through the Heavens, and so on. These works were not only popular in the online world, but also influenced the culture and aesthetics of the real world to a certain extent.
