Before birth, people have yet to descend into the mortal world, remaining untainted by the external filth and turbid energies. During this time, the body is brimming with primordial breath. This primordial breath acts like the dew that nourishes life, helping people grow and thrive.
Once born, external turbid energies gradually infiltrate the body, causing the primordial breath to constantly drain away until a body once filled with primordial breath is eventually replaced by acquired turbid energies. Yet, exceptions do exist.
There are always those in this world whose fortune seems extraordinary, allowing them to guard the primordial breath within their bodies so that it neither leaks nor corrodes from acquired turbid energies.
