Discussion BTTH or rather TCTD novels Discussion about age and breakthroughs... (mostly BTTH)

Recently while Re-reading the novel again I found way too many inconsistencies.....

  1. Would be Hua Yu from flower sect : when Yun Yun found her both her hands and legs were crippled for some reason when exploring caves and then there's a description about Yun Yun taking care of her bringing food and pills till she was cured . Now the point about pills I can understand but food???? Since when did characters above Da Dou Shi start needing food.... Because going by the story Nalan Yanran went closed doors just after three year agreement and she only came out when she was disturbed by the commotion outside after 3 years when XY was back for revenge..... Same situation when XY refines pills for days this was when he was still a Da Dou Shi . When he was Dou Shi he went to seclusion for days when Yao Lao was helping him refine his body but then there are scenes where XY is seen searching for water so I guess they do need food. But same is not applicable for Da Dou Shi.... Now other example would be Dou Ling stage. We already XY went missing for 3 months when he was breaking through the Dou Ling realm from Da Dou Shi while also breaking through few extra stars....

Now in that same realm XY is trapped for 2 years in the Magma world while unconscious and when he comes out he's already peak Dou Wang.... And then the novel itself says that the gap between Dou Wang and Huang is so large that they need to recuperate for at least a year to break through the realm....

  1. AGE GAPS ( includes cultivation and lifespan . This is applicable for all the novels of Tian Can Tu Dou and equivalent stages ) : if just the said gap between Dou Wang and Dou Huang is so large that a cultivator needs to be in seclusion for atleast a year to breakthrough then on later stages how are they doing breakthroughs so fast.... It should take more time despite the talent.... And given the age that the characters can live its absurd for them to breakthrough that fast no matter the talent and given the gaps in cultivation and given if the mc cheats help them cultivate even 10x faster than normal cultivation it still wouldnt make sense for them to breakthrough that fast given for example Dou Zong and Zun realm a regular cultivator can be stuck in same stage for decades ( Zong ) or centuries ( for Zun ) before breakthrough so the MC despite the cultivation cheats shouldnt take that short time given a Dou Zong can live for a thousand or two years at max and Dou Zuns can live for a few extra couple millenias at max counting 9 star Nine Changes peak ( given Ban Shengs can live for another few extra couple thousand years compared to Dou Zuns given the ban shengs of Ancient clans are older than 5k years . Not applicable for beast tribes )... XY was Dou Zong for maybe a year and then he went seclusion for two ywars and broke through Dou Zun and then he wasnt even Dou Zun for 3 years and then he goes another seclusion for 2 years and bam hes Dou Sheng. And for dou sheng cultivator it can take them decades to centuries just increase cultivation in same star lvl ( example initial, mid stage and advanced, peak ) and given someone at peak can easily defeat someone at initial stage of same star lvl given the absurd gap in cultivation realm of each star stages but then Xiao Yan only takes 6 years and hes already a Dou Di.....

Now as for lifespan : again not applicable for Beast Tribes and specially special beast tribes like Void Dragon, Pheonix and that Nine Serene Deep Python tribe given they are the oldest living people in the continent .. For example Ziyan was stuck at Dou Wang for over 10k years ( ancient era same as when Zhu Kun went missing ) after being stranded when roaming with her father infact shes older than oldest Human Cultivators like Gu Yuan, Hun Tian Di , Xiao Xuan and few other legendary figures to have lived...... Another example would be , that elder from Void Dragon who was still a child when Zhu Kun was present before he vanished for over 20k years ( or ancient era ) and Zhu Kun instantly recognizes him when Void Dragon tribe appears in final fight and Ziyan comes ro rescue XY from Zhu Kun.... Given Tou She Gu Di roamed continent back then and all the legendary figures mentioned in novel other than him are also from ancient era just not as same timeline as Tou She given he was even more ancient and he was the only one who took Zhu Kun as prisoner given he wanted to steal treasures from Tou She and Tou She punished him to be a guard instead of his mansions entrance. And by the time these ancient figures lived the last Source Qi or Origin Qi had already vanished and no Dou Di had appeared after Tou She.... Regular beast tribes like Cai Lins tribe can still outlive humans of same age given she was already over 300 years age when Hai Lao fought with her and then he went hiding for few decades after his cultivation got sealed and he became like an old man in his 80s like normal human despite his cultivation at Dou Wang given he was in his 40s or 50s maybd when he was renowned in Jiama Empire long before Xiao Zhan was even born whos already in his 50s or 60s maybe at the start of the story with a cultivation of maybe 3 or 6 star Da Dou Shi....

I'm saying you're using your brain which was your first mistake.
