Three Immortals has a cultivation system based in the absortion of surrounding primal energy and converting it into True Energy (真气) using Anima (真我: True Self), the power of the Fate Palace's Four Images which belongs only to the individual.[1] This is in contrast to the cultivation in the Nine Worlds or the Tenth World, where only apex existences may start to cultivate this energy. The reason for this is the absence of the restraints of heaven and earth, enabeling cultivators to start cultivating Anima at the very beginning.[2]
Description[edit | edit source]
A person's anima appears when channeling it through meditation laws as a resplendent glow exuded from the body with a shadow three feet above the head. After that the true fate comes out and fuses with the anima.
The anima also meditates and absorbs primal energy. This energy washes the body as a tiny maelstrom formed by the stomach. It absorbs the primal energy released by the anima and turns it into streams coming to one place.
While the worldly energy from the nine and chaos energy in the tenth all come from the heaven and earth, such that the cultivators there are restrained by this entity, this is not the case for Three Immortals, leading to the absence of tribulations. The cultivators here have their energy coming from the anima, not the world.
Furthermore, there is no difference in strength or cultivation speed between Three Immortals' cultivators and cultivators from other worlds up to the True Emperor rank. True Emperors are faster to reach the dao origin (mastering Anima) than a twelve will Grand Emperor.[3]
The biggest weakness of this cultivation system is the longevity, which needs to be ensured by Longevity Pills, because of the lack of the Heaven's Will as a source of prolonged life.[2]

Choice[edit | edit source]
One can choose to begin opening a second Fate Palace at True God realm or to refine the four symbols of the first Fate Palace into a dao spring to reach the True Emperor realm. The choice affects the Cultivation Path. If one opens a second Fate Palace at True God realm, it would never be possible to reach the True Emperor realm and one has to follow the path of Godhood.[4] Once the True Emperor realm is reached, 12 Fate Palaces will be opened at once, but they will not be functional. The new True Emperor will need to light them one by one.
