    A bookworm for twenty years, especially fond of mortal cultivation novels, among which "A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality," "Against the Gods," "The Path of the Cultivation Sect Leader," "The Path of Xuan Chen," "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit," and "The Peak of the Azure Lotus" are my favorites. Suddenly, I had the idea to write my own version of the Xianxia genre, without overpowered characters or powerful backers, striving to present a realistic world of cultivation as I envision it. Orphaned at a young age, he relied on his clan for support, only to witness the deaths of his people as he grew up. Neglected by his family and only wanting to live a carefree life, fate brought him his nemesis. Unsuitable for leadership, he now had to shoulder the honor and disgrace of his entire clan due to various circumstances. Wang Xuanyi turned back, taking one last, poignant look at the place where he had grown up, before leading his children and flying away into the distance without looking back… This book tells the story of a small Foundation Establishment clan that, through generations of effort, grows into an immortal clan… Completed at 2.6 Million words, welcome to read!

    A classic mortal cultivation story featuring a protagonist with five spiritual roots, born into a humble village with extremely low starting point. The plot is full of scheming, with the protagonist taking every step with meticulous planning and strategic thinking. He's intelligent and capable of refining his skills, achieving Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul, and Deity Transformation... It's already at 700,000 words, quite substantial and ready to be devoured. Definitely a must-read when you're looking for something to read! [Currently working on the manuscript][Heart][Bump]

    The Myriad Souls Banner refines evil spirits, controls corpses and puppets, cultivates both Yin and Yang, is a mortal cultivation story, has no system, is not a wish-fulfillment novel, both protagonists and antagonists are intelligent, and the characters are complex and three-dimensional, not stereotypical. Worth reading for veteran readers tired of mindless wish-fulfillment novels.
