After reading a few books that really make you think, I can't get into brainless stories anymore. It's frustrating. (No heroine, or just one heroine, but don't demean women, or I really can't stand it.)

It is absolutely in-depth and can be used as a textbook. Each test word has a reasonable explanation, each side has its source, and it is absolutely true and valid. The little Taoist priest is kind, but not a saint. There are many female protagonists, but not sentimental. Martial but not bloody.

309 The Legend of Phantom Butterfly: a Story of Yu Mei Yinzhou Is Not SlowAncient Romance119k WordsCompleted 17Reads—Score—Shelves
Reader note
Viewed from the perspective of spiritual cultivation, this article is a masterpiece full of warning. It does not describe a refreshing spiritual practice of "upgrading to defeat monsters and finally becoming a great person", but uses a cold and even cruel brushstrokes to describe how a talented monk reaches the pinnacle of his external achievements while gradually being defeated on the inner battlefield, and finally the whole process of "the way disappears and the devil grows". It tells us: * Refining the mind is more important than refining the art: external demons are easy to get rid of, but inner demons are difficult to conquer. * Facing it is better than escaping: Any pain and guilt that has not been faced and resolved will become the food of inner demons. * When observing the precepts, you need to be careful of appearances: excessive attachment to "Tao", "goodness", and even the "old self" may itself be a kind of "obsession with law" that needs to be broken. * True freedom lies in awakening: not sleeping in an illusion, no matter how beautiful. The story ends with the "freedom" of the evil butterfly, leaving endless sighs and reflections - is this the victory of the devil, or is it an ultimate warning about "addiction to illusions is the greatest lack of freedom"? Therefore, this article is not only a fantasy story written for readers, but also a mirror handed to all those who are seeking on the road of "heart", reflecting the gorgeous and dangerous wrong roads and abyss on the way to spiritual practice.

Reader note
The poems in it are all written by the author himself. I often read the comments and reply or like everything I see. The first book integrates the thoughts of hundreds of schools of thought: the Six Not Black Sages, new routines, and new patterns, bringing you a different prehistoric era, and also tells a new story about what it means to be a saint. A saint is not only a person with high cultivation. Each supporting character has his own chapter, there will be a series of characters such as sweet, indescribable, complex, simple, etc. The second book, pure love, you know. It also hides the thoughts of some schools of thought, but it is updated slowly, with only one chapter a day. But overall the quality is better than the first one
