    For a relaxing read, I recommend this post-apocalyptic Daoist cultivation novel. The pace is leisurely and not oppressive, and it avoids forced angst. The story begins with the daily life of a lowly scavenger, collecting scrap metal, exchanging it for food, and dodging irradiated monsters – the details of survival are meticulously portrayed. The protagonist is calm and collected, vengeful but not bloodthirsty, leading a group of survivors to find solace and support. The blend of Daoist cultivation and post-apocalyptic science fiction is natural, with novel concepts like inner fire, crystallized bodies, and ark voyages. The plot unfolds gradually, becoming increasingly engaging as you read.

The once glorious Ninth Era was utterly destroyed, and the survivors scattered to the mortal realm. Countless cultivators pursued the opportunity for immortality, unaware that the Old Covenant of Immortality was the heaviest curse left by the Ninth Era. The immortal sects professed to eliminate demons and uphold justice, yet secretly hunted down the remnants, extracting their bloodline power. The incomplete Ascension Contract was difficult to activate, so the immortal sects placed all their hopes on the bloodline of the remnants of the era. The Northern Mountain, silent for millennia, witnessed a meteor shower, the seal loosened, and the slumbering spirit of the monument awakened. The sealed secrets of the era, the cruel truth of its destruction, are about to tear off the immortal sects' mask of hypocrisy. In this chaotic world, some steadfastly protected their people, while others chose to betray their own kind for survival. A realistic and hardcore fantasy novel, with suspense running throughout and meticulous foreshadowing; highly recommended: *The Old Covenant of Immortality*.
