I never understood why a cultivation novel would have Buddhist cultivation
The reasons for the appearance of immortal cultivation novels and Buddhist cultivators depended on the plot and setting of the novel. Here are some possible explanations: 1. Worldview setting: Immortal cultivation novels and Buddhist cultivation are elements that the author sets in his own worldview. If Buddhism appeared in your novel, it might be because the author wanted to explore the possibilities of different ways of cultivation or wanted to construct a pluralistic worldview so that readers would have more choices and space to explore. 2. Character setting: In immortal cultivation novels, the main character is usually a cultivator, and the Buddhist cultivator may be the opponent or ally of the main character. By adding Buddhism into the novel, the author could create a more complex and interesting character setting, allowing the readers to have a deeper understanding of the character's personality, motivation, and growth process. 3. Plot requirements: In some immortal cultivation novels, the appearance of Buddhist cultivators may be to promote the development of the plot. For example, the protagonist might need to cooperate with the Buddhist cultivators or use the power of the Buddhist cultivators to achieve his own goals. 4. Religious elements: In some immortal cultivation novels, Buddhism may represent a certain religious element. For example, a Buddhist cultivator might be a believer of a certain religion or represent the spiritual content and philosophical thoughts of a certain religion. In this way, the author could add religious elements to the novel to enhance the cultural foundation and depth of the novel. It was necessary to explain why a Buddhist cultivator would exist in a cultivation novel based on the plot and setting of the novel.

The Buddhist Cultivation Realm in the novel
In the novel, the Buddhist cultivation realms were divided into the following categories: - From the initial stage, the Mahayana stage, to the non-high-tier stage. In the initial realm, one should pay attention to the three schools of precepts, precepts and wisdom, restrain desires, meditate and clarify the state of mind, and understand the world and oneself with wisdom, so as to increase self-cultivation and accumulate good virtue to reach the Hinayana realm. The Mahayana realm was based on the foundation of the initial state. Cultivators expanded their horizons, adhered to the Bodhisattva Way, combined personal enlightenment with altruism, and developed Bodhi Heart. They fused wisdom and compassion, pursuing the universal salvation of all living beings. On the other hand, the highest realm was to completely realize one's true self, achieve the Buddha's Fruit, get rid of the troubles of reincarnation, and obtain true freedom and happiness. In this realm, one would regard oneself as the main body of all living beings, get rid of egocentrism, and realize that all living beings were inseparable from oneself, thus freeing oneself. - There was also another kind of realm similar to the three realms of Zen Master Xingsi of Green Plains. The first realm was to see mountains as mountains and water as water; the second realm was to see mountains as mountains and water as water; and the third realm was to see mountains as mountains and water as water. This was the highest realm. In addition, the six virtues of Buddhism (Almsgiving, precepts, endurance, progress, meditation, wisdom) can also be seen as different aspects of cultivation. For example, the realm of endurance can be seen from the world's hunger, thirst, cold, heat, bitterness, joy, etc. to the world's faith, precepts, almsgiving, hearing, wisdom, right view, etc., to the Buddha, Dharma, and monks, to the realm of endurance of cursing, beating, cursing, evil words, evil things, greed, anger, doubt, etc., to the realm of endurance of profit, decline, destruction, reputation, praise, ridicule, bitterness, and joy, etc. All of these could be integrated into the Buddhist cultivation realm in the novel.

Buddhist Cultivation Realms

Then, there was the Arhat Realm. Arhats already had a certain level of Buddhist attainments and were extraordinary. Further up was the Bodhisattva Realm. Bodhisattvas were merciful and saved others and themselves. That realm was very high. The highest realm was the Buddha Realm.
