    Reader note

    You absolutely can't miss this fantasy Xianxia novel! It's a blend of cunning, suspense, alternate universe, and the "mortal cultivation" element, telling the story from a mortal's perspective. It creates a completely new cultivation system, unlike the traditional tribulations, Qi condensation, and Foundation Establishment. Zhang Yi cultivates the Heavenly Heart Dao through knowledge, reaching a realm comparable to immortals. The trials along the way are tangible and relatable, making cultivation feel grounded. You might think you're cultivating immortality, but in the end, you'll find it's all about human nature. The plot is rich, the characters are well-developed, and the character settings are diverse. It's full of twists and turns, so you can read it with confidence. The plot is engaging, and the descriptions of each character's actions and psychology are perfectly matched to the context. It's a balanced read. I've read this novel countless times; it has many settings, delicate writing, and a gradual progression. It's incredibly good!!
