    How is possible to have immunity to poisons that melt bone's and turn your body into a puddle of liquid, but magic Viagra is inescapable and can only be cured by rape.

    Forced plot devices... CN novels are full of them. I'm kind of surprised you are suprised by this...

    Cause the male(assumed) mc is coincidentally there to give a cure. Why bother wasting time and money to get a cure when there's a convenient male right there

    Because no one is immune to the plot.

    One of the stupidest 'justifications' is that, the aphrodisiac isn't harmful to the character so their poison immunity doesn't kick up. I bloody hate this plot device I drop all novels with them now.

    Because chinese still believe in those kind of things (aphrodisiac, fertility product, etc...).
    The rhinoceros wouldn't be this close to complete extinction if they didn't... Which is pretty stupid as a full graft of the horn would be way more effective than it's powdered form... :blobcat_knife:

    That and the fact that most xia authors can't write even low quality romance to save their life...

    Aphrodisiac is categorized as drug, not poison..... Mc body think this aphrodisiac is supplements and can make super dense mc procreate, how can that considered as poison which is harm the body, mc is actually getting advantage from this
    That's why you can easily buy Viagra legally

    This. This is what I generally hate. They just justify the rape drug as "beneficial" as it bla bla bla boost horniness and people can conditioned to be immuned to pain but not pleasure or even tickling.

    Well shitstains, I sure as shit getting less and less into hentais and porns by the amount I am fapping to, this shit is call getting immuned godammit.

    Yet they contradict themselves by saying if they don't have sex then they'll die and other such bullshit.
    Still don't get how some MC's who are godly doctors can't stop an aphrodisiac.

    I think most people forget that medicine and poison are the same thing. In the right dose which generally means small amounts it's medicine, in large amounts it's poison. In theory a small amount would be even easier to not be affected by than a large dose, yet for their stupid plot device it's the opposite. Then again they believe tusks, horns, penis' of different animals are all medicine. As far as I can tell they've just got a thing about phallic objects. Then the cure must also require something phallic related to complete as well.

    No offense, but I've rarely found a CN cultivation author that worried about such bothersome things such as justification for their MC's overly lecherous actions. At best they're as flimsy as rice paper or just passed off as heroic character flaws...

    You just answered your question. MAGIC aphrodisiac versus myriad non-magical poisons~

    Imagine how awkward it would be to write about a Cultivator beating it at light speed lol. Increased stamina and recovery means that they could go all day every day.

    I have read in otherworld evil monarch, MC got drugged by one of the female, in lethal dosage by the way and raped
    his deceased brother's wife
    for half a day, pistoning on and on. And eating excess drugs IRL causes heart failure. Damn, how the fictionous works so not real!

    Worthy mentions, the black slime (I can never associate him to being MC) rapes his victims on and on until they suffer mindbreak or in elf queen's case, retain her sanity and watch all her female subjects turn into living breeding chambers. The males are all dead, like what a typical CN xianxia MC would do.
