    Reader note

    This novel is absolutely amazing!!! The opening scene, with its writhing stone statues in the firelight and jarring sacrificial inscriptions, immediately sets the tone for suspense. The author uses delicate strokes to depict the eerie atmosphere of the altar, and the moment the divine sword is drawn pushes the conflict to its climax. The battle between the mountain spirit and the immortals begins with this blood sacrifice, and every page holds a twist!
