Background
Secret Cultivator first became known through a forum post visible only to people who had entered the Ancient Earth. The post warned World of Weirdness players not to continue after exhausting their resurrection count, use game items recklessly in reality, or speak hidden existences’ complete honorific names; it also provided a group number for prospective contacts. 6
She operates the Secret Cultivator Society as a small communication and trading platform rather than an organization that owes protection or loyalty to its members. The Society’s rules prohibit exposing member information, harming the Society, falsifying intelligence trades, or leaking information gained within it; the code further claims to be witnessed by the King of Oaths and gives Secret Cultivator final interpretive authority. 28
The Society monetizes information exchanges. Secret Cultivator can open and observe private trade rooms, safeguard item trades in exchange for Old Offerings, assign optional tasks, and host mandatory weekly online gatherings where she answers one question per member if she knows the answer. 28
After Yang Qizhou joined under the name “Honey Pot,” Secret Cultivator became preoccupied with his concealed identity. The Mirror of Attilus failed to reveal him, and even an external records search produced no usable information. Believing this concealment resembled a nascent Authority, she chose to retain Honey Pot in the Society so she could monitor him rather than expel him. 29 30
Her concern increased when Honey Pot demonstrated unusually rapid game progress by trading information obtained from a cult leader. Secret Cultivator privately encouraged Cheetah to reveal additional information during the exchange, apparently seeking to cultivate Honey Pot’s goodwill. 36
During the Diamond Building incident, she made an exceptional credit-based information exchange with Honey Pot. She explained that chanting a deity’s complete honorific name in reality can draw a sound deity’s gaze, or potentially help create a successor deity from a highly vitalized Old Day Item belonging to a fallen one. 49 50
Appearance
Secret Cultivator is depicted as a striking woman who resides in a luxurious high-rise apartment. 29 30
- Long, fair legs and a slender waist. 29
- Exquisite features and clear eyes. 29
- Gemstone earrings and necklace described as shining like stars. 29
- Often seen reclining in a rocking chair while using a tablet. 29 30
Personality
Secret Cultivator is efficient, calculating, and strongly protective of her control over the Society. She treats its members as useful assets rather than comrades, explicitly viewing them as tools whose information, labor, and trades can be leveraged for her benefit. 28 30
She is also cautious when confronted with uncertainty. Honey Pot’s immunity to her inquiries unsettles her enough to abandon the idea of eliminating him; instead, she keeps him close through the Society while trying to understand his intentions. 30
Despite her transactional mindset, she can be pragmatic and responsive. She provides urgent occult information to Honey Pot when his circumstances suggest immediate danger, though she records the assistance as a favor to be repaid. 49 50
“All members of the Secret Cultivator Society were tools.” 30
Operations and Resources

Identity Investigation
Secret Cultivator attempted to uncover Honey Pot’s identity after he joined the Society. 29 30
- Used the Mirror of Attilus, whose surface showed only her own reflection when directed at Honey Pot. 29
- Ordered an assistant to seek Honey Pot’s account information through a service provider. 30
- The investigation failed, leading her to conclude that Honey Pot’s concealment extended beyond ordinary identity masking. 30
Equipment
