In the bitterly cold lands of Northeast China, a faith blending the ancient Quanzhen sect with shamanic animal-spirit worship has been passed down since antiquity. The animals that cultivate their powers are known there as “old immortals,” and their human spokespeople are called “horse-riding mediums.”
Among them are a brother and sister who travel the human world, punish evil and uphold justice, befriend brothers they can trust with their lives, encounter the purest human feelings, and witness love that defies convention... At last, they realize that old immortals are no different from people. They no longer seek godhood for themselves, wishing only for all beings to be equal.
But then they discover that they are nothing more than pieces on a chessboard, and this game began thousands of years ago. Can they break free of their fated lot and fight for that one slim chance of survival?
This book is absolutely fantastic! The pacing is perfect, with each plot twist seamlessly into the next, making it incredibly engaging. I read it in one sitting and give the author a huge thumbs up! I look forward to your new works!
The ending was a bit disappointing, but the whole story is still very good and worth reading!
A truly excellent book. Surprisingly, there are hardly any recommendations. It seems like they're all paid fake promotions. Genuine good books aren't getting promoted. Rotten Tomatoes.
I finished reading it, but the ending felt a bit rushed. However, this is the first book of the shamanic genre that I could actually finish. The story is good, very good.
I can't say anything else, I can only say they're incredibly cute.
Absolutely amazing, I watched it for a long time.
A rare gem of a book, it weaves together various legends and immortals with a logical plot, vivid characters, and a touch of humor; well worth reading.
It's quite interesting, not bad.
There are a few typos, and some names are misspelled, but otherwise it's fine, not bad.
Beautiful, really beautiful
