Before she turned fifteen, Lu Qinghe had never imagined she would one day cultivate immortality.
Her parents had been missing for eight years. She lived with her uncle's family, hauling water, chopping wood, and working the fields. She wore her older female cousin's hand-me-down clothes, and even the old house her parents had left behind was about to be torn down.
She had thought her life would probably stay that way forever.
Until one day, blood stained the jade pendant her mother had left her.
A cave dwelling, abandoned for many years, was hidden inside the pendant.
Tender shoots sprouted again in the withered medicinal fields. The water in the well could heal injuries. A faint glimmer shone from deep within the library that she could not open. And a dusty copy of the Qi Guiding Art taught Lu Qinghe for the first time that...
The immortals the elders spoke of, who rode swords on the wind and lived for hundreds of years, were not merely stories.
She had no peerless talent, and no one had paved the way for her.
At first, she cultivated only because she wanted a slightly better life.
She wanted to eat her fill, save up money of her own, reclaim the things her parents had left behind, and someday walk out of the little mountain village that had confined her for eight years with her head held high.
Later, she really did leave Qingshi Village.
She joined an immortal sect, entered secret realms, witnessed vast landscapes and the capriciousness of life and death.
Only then did she gradually discover that the cave dwelling her mother had left behind was far more complicated than she had imagined, and that her parents, missing for so many years, seemed never to have truly left this long road to immortality.
From a lonely girl of the wilderness to one who sought the Dao and eternal life.
There was no overnight success along the way.
She simply walked slowly, but never looked back again.
Beyond one green mountain lies another.
And at the end of all those mountains lies her own path to immortality.
I can only say that the framework is okay, but it has a strong AI flavor.
Okay, the steel pipe frame is good
There is a skit-like dialogue
It's so exciting, one crisis after another, I can't breathe, and the heroine's marriage is also normal. I have already recommended it as a book. Thank you author.
Good book recommendation, super nice
A very different article about cultivating immortals, very interesting
It's good to watch, but I forgot where I was talking about before, so I have to listen to it again! 🤦🤭
