It depends, they basically all have energy absorption and the more they absorb the stronger they become kinda like Superman with his solar radiation, and when they run out of energy or lose their cultivation then they become like ordinary humans except if they are body cultivator in which they train their body so much that they continuously break their limits, for some reasons the body of cultivator don’t have a real limit. There is so much to be said for instance martial arts, spells and Taoist techniques are like mechanics to make use of the absorbed energy.
Let’s talk about the stages of cultivation, the first stage is usually body tempering which means to workout a lot and then qi sensing then absorbing the energy then you compress the energy into some kind of gaseous state then compress further into a liquid state, it’s strange cus this is basically liquid energy but I have a suspicion it’s just fusing the energy into your blood which is probably where blood qi comes but ignore that for now it might not be the case any way compress the liquid energy further to make your golden core basically an energy dense solid sphere, by this point you have already gained something called spiritual sense which is a way to sense the surrounding without the 5 senses you are basically one with your energy and you use that energy to see, feel, taste, touch, sense etc, then fuse your soul with the core so that you no long need a physical body to survive then you start trying to understand other forms of energy/ concept by making use of your spiritual sense, then whatever you comprehend you had to you soul/core fusion at this point your body is basically a puppet except if you are body cultivator but those guys are barbaric so I’m ignoring them. So you are basically an energy based life form, but yet somehow you can still die due to how fast your soul would dissipate without a body but as you keep incorporating certain aspects of the world into your soul it gets better and you might see yourself living for millions of years depending on how far you go before then you would have comprehended space time making you a pseudo 4d existence maybe even 4d, but you will be restricted by the world after all it is where you absorbed your energy from, so it’s basically your boss to an extent.I m tired of typing so I’ll leave it at that. This is my head canon on certain aspects of cultivation I could go into more details but I wanna sleep so… if I’m reaching tell me so.
