Is "cultivation" a difficult-to-translate word here, or is this a video game reference I haven't played the right games to understand?

Cultivation is basically when you get stronger by taking a lot of pills and thinking really hard.

Cultivation is, in my understanding, a concept of eastern alchemy. Wherein through meditation and enlightenment you turn your own body into a 'furnace' to gather and distil elemental energies from the world. This is done in order to achieve immortality by reforming and reinforcing your own body with said energies, to break or bend the laws of heaven. This mixes in with acupuncture, with the belief that there are 'energies' and 'meridians' in the body where these eneries flow, and acupuncture points are central to understanding and manipulating the flow of said energies in the human body.
