The content of the novel is based on Eastern fantasy. Take the historical background of the Five Chaos in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. What shocked me was this sentence: Heaven and earth are closed, and the laws are incomplete. If you want to seek the great road, you can only accumulate merit and make up for the heaven! The protagonist has completed the transformation from the small self to the big self. Taking it as his own duty to save the people of the world, he assisted Yang Jian to unify the troubled times.

This is a work that embeds a grand fairy tale into the folds of real history. It breaks away from the narrative inertia of the traditional fairy tale of "personal ascension" and disassembles the ultimate proposition of "repairing the sky" into concrete "rescues" in three hundred years of troubled times. The author uses the words "bloody world" to lay the most solid foundation for the story. The crazy mother who exchanged her children for food, and the Hu chieftain who drank from his skull. These details with historical weight are not used as backgrounds, but as the "fire of karma" that the protagonist Li Xuanxin must face on his way to spiritual practice.
A very good historical cultivation novel that integrates characters into history and takes you through the three hundred years of troubled times from the perspective of a small person. Friends who like history and traditional Taoist novels can read it.
It breaks away from the traditional novels about cultivating immortals and deeply binds the protagonist Li Xuanxin's path of cultivation with real historical nodes such as the Yongjia Rebellion and the Yi Guan's Southern Crossing, so that "seeking the Tao" and "saving the nation" are closely intertwined. It reads with both the elegance of an immortal and the weight of history. Li Xuanxin's growth line is clear and heavy from an abandoned baby in Zhongnan Mountain, to a monk under the throne of Qingxuzi, and then to a guardian stepping into the bloody world. Master's prophecy of "Only accumulate merit and replenish the sky" made his practice no longer focus on taking care of himself alone, but rather protect all living beings with a Taoist heart. He saves scholars, hides scriptures, and helps Yang Jian. Every choice he makes is asking about the true meaning of "the great road" - not to ascend to immortality, but to keep the fire of civilization and the glimmer of humanity in the chaotic world where the way of heaven is incomplete. The most moving thing about the novel is the depiction of all living beings in troubled times: the mother who exchanged her children for food, the Hu chieftain who drank wine with human skulls, the scholars who traveled south in attire... These details make the cruelty of the "Five Husbands" no longer a cold historical term, but a human purgatory that the protagonist must face head-on. This writing method of "writing history with immortals" not only broadens the boundaries of Eastern immortals, but also makes the protagonist's path of "merits" more weighty. If you are tired of the same boring articles about cultivating immortals, you might as well open this book and see how Li Xuanxin repairs the sky with his Taoist heart and protects his family and country with his blood on the road of spiritual cultivation by sailing against the current.
The writing style of this book abandons the accumulation of flashy rhetoric and pursues a kind of simplicity and purity that "turns the splendid to the ordinary". It does not win with the weirdness of the plot, but with the profound and moving artistic conception. When reading, readers can not only feel the ups and downs of the story, but also appreciate an aesthetic conception and spiritual tolerance unique to Eastern culture. A five-star masterpiece, worth reading carefully! !
It's a good-looking, quite special cultivation novel, with great simplicity. The writing style is delicate and smooth, the story plot is rich and vivid, and the characters are vividly portrayed. Please wait for further updates [Chigua][Chigua][Chigua]
This book breaks the clichés of cultivating immortals and takes the troubled times of the Southern and Northern Dynasties as the background. The protagonist makes up for the sky with his merits. From an ordinary person who seeks enlightenment to a strong man who protects the common people, the pattern is full, passionate and thick, and it is refreshing and not cliché [Like][Like][Like]
This is the first time I read a historical cultivation novel. This kind of subject matter is quite novel. There are no traditional fairy tale routines. The author introduces some real historical nodes and incorporates them. I feel that it is very immersive and I have to admire the author's writing skills.
This novel is as beautiful as poetry and painting. The opening chapter is gripping and the characters are vivid. The story has a grand scene. Li Xuanxin, an abandoned baby in Zhongnan Mountain, tramples on the bloody world during the Yongjia Rebellion, and uses his merits to make up for the defects in the way of heaven. After three hundred years of saving the common people and protecting the cultural heritage, he finally used his ascension as a watchman to write about cultivating immortality as the star of civilization. It is profound and heart-breaking! Highly recommended.
This is an excellent work that combines the practice of immortals with the three hundred years of troubled times in China. The protagonist proves the Tao through merit and virtue and protects the long history of civilization. The layout is grand and full of warmth. Five-star recommendation!
