   Highly recommended! Don't be fooled by the low rating; this book is incredibly good. The female lead disappeared for six years to complete missions in the cultivation world (she has a system). For her younger brother and the male lead (her boyfriend), she relentlessly pursues her missions to return to the real world. She becomes invisible and disappears right in front of the male lead, but he waits for her throughout those six years. The female lead pays a heavy price to return to the real world from the cultivation world; her system disappears, and her body shrinks. You'll see for yourself when you read it.

    I think this book is alright. The main text already has 1.4 Million words, and the author has also included two related short stories. The writing style and setting are quite good, for example, in Chapter 5 of Volume 1, there's a 1500-word classical Chinese text called "The Song of the Dao," which is the author's original work. A single song explains almost all the paths of cultivation. This style of setting the tone right from the start is simply amazing.

Her lack of interpersonal skills stems from a desire to avoid dealing with complex human nature, but she genuinely cares for those who are kind to her.
