That may sound a bit extreme, but it's the truth.
As Xiang Wan practiced the Frostbite Technique, the cold energy within her body became increasingly uncontrollable. She tried countless methods, but still couldn't find a solution. The body bearing this cold energy had been tricked by Shen Meier before coming to the Crimson Sun Sect, afflicted with a type of cold energy that was difficult for the body to absorb, severely damaging its functions. Initially, this destructive power wasn't apparent, but over time, or with the cultivation of internal energy, it would gradually destroy all bodily functions. Her rapid cultivation speed was partly due to this.
If we compare the body to a machine, then internal energy is like the engine oil injected into it. The connections between the internal components of this machine have been widened, so much more oil is poured in than in other machines, making the initial injection seem very rapid. However, once a certain critical point is reached, adding more oil is no longer lubrication, but rather destruction. Too much oil widens the gaps between components, and the slightest mishap can cause parts to detach, leading to uncoordinated operation of the entire machine and ultimately causing it to break down irreversibly.
Xiang Wan has two paths to survival. First, she can stagnate in her martial arts at its current level, making no further progress. This would save her life, but she also cannot cultivate internal energy anymore, or deplete and replenish it, as long as it's not excessive. The original owner of this body was probably so weak because of this, ultimately forced to be manipulated and forced to watch helplessly as Qu Chiyang jumped off a cliff to his death.
