Li Dai felt at a loss for words in the face of such a situation. However, she understood that as long as one lived, there was hope and everything remained possible; once dead, there was truly nothing left.
For cultivators, this was particularly absolute. They generally had no chance of reincarnation because, from the moment they stepped onto the path of cultivation, they were defying the heavens, effectively forfeiting any chance at rebirth. Thus, the fall of a cultivator was a permanent end.
If a cultivator was determined to secure a chance at reincarnation, they had to reach a level of power high enough to self-seal their memories before passing. As the great masters often said, some chose to reincarnate and start over for the sake of experiencing new trials; for them, sealing their memories was sufficient. These cultivators were not truly "fallen"; they had simply chosen to abandon their physical bodies and the fruits of their cultivation to embark on a new life.
