    Reader note

    The protagonist, Lu Chen, starts as a poor herb gatherer and, through the mysterious "Karma Stone," glimpses fragments of destiny, struggling to survive in the immortal realm. The work perfectly blends core elements of the "grassroots rise to immortality" genre, such as "resource competition" and "multi-map ascension," while innovatively incorporating Cthulhu-esque chaotic horror and the interplay of cause and effect. The world within the book is cruel and realistic, the cultivation system rigorous, and every breakthrough the protagonist makes comes with a price and backlash. From mortal sects to the Nine Heavens, from ancient secret realms to battlefields across realms, the plot is intricately linked, with profound foreshadowing. Readers who enjoy "A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality" should not miss this self-consistent and steadily paced masterpiece of Xianxia (fantasy/cultivation).

    Traditional Cultural Wisdom: A Guide to Self-Cultivation and Moral Improvement In the long and rich history of our culture, Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, Wang Yangming's philosophy, the works of Zhang Defen, and the concept of seeking immortality all contain boundless wisdom, pointing us in the direction of self-cultivation, moral improvement, and conduct. 1. Confucianism: Advocating "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness." "Of all virtues, filial piety is paramount," meaning respect and care for parents and elders; brotherly love and mutual assistance among siblings constitute fraternal duty; loyalty to the ruler and country, and dedication to one's work embody loyalty; "A person without trustworthiness cannot stand," trustworthiness is the principle of conduct; propriety regulates our behavior, respecting teachers and valuing the Way; righteousness allows us to uphold justice and maintain integrity; integrity requires us to be spotless and upright; shame enables us to distinguish right from wrong and uphold the bottom line of being a decent human being. Everything starts with oneself, guided by Confucian thought, constantly improving oneself. 2. Taoism: Advocating following nature, adhering to the fundamental law of the universe, "Tao," governing by non-action and non-interference. Upholding a simple and pure nature, possessing noble character, and benefiting others without contention—this is virtue. A pure heart, undisturbed by worldly complexities and desires, is clarity; maintaining tranquility and peace, observing all things and cultivating mind and body in stillness, is stillness; emptying oneself, not bound by prejudice and preconceived notions, embracing the world with an open and inclusive heart, is emptiness; comprehending the realm of "nothingness," letting go of attachment to tangible things and fame and fortune, returning to one's true nature is nothingness; dealing with the world with gentleness and humility, like water, seemingly weak yet containing great power, is gentleness; pursuing harmony, coexisting harmoniously with nature and others, and not creating conflict and strife, is harmony. 3. Buddhism: Compassion is having a heart full of love and empathy for the suffering of all beings, offering care and help; pity for the suffering of all beings and vowing to help them escape the sea of ​​suffering is compassion; joy for the happiness and joy of all beings, without giving rise to jealousy, anger, or hatred is joy; abandoning greed, anger, ignorance, pride, and doubt, letting go of the pursuit of worldly desires and attachments is equanimity; observing precepts, regulating one's own behavior, and refraining from harming beings or violating morality is discipline; cultivating meditation, focusing the mind, and not being disturbed by external factors, thereby gaining wisdom and concentration is concentration; opening wisdom, discerning the essence of things, and getting rid of afflictions and confusion is wisdom; understanding the true meaning of "emptiness," realizing that all things in the world are illusory, and not clinging to appearances is emptiness. One should not be attached to form externally, nor to emptiness internally; one should dwell nowhere, yet give rise to the mind. The past mind is unattainable, the present mind is unattainable, and the future mind is unattainable. 4. Wang Yangming's philosophy of mind: Emphasizing "mind is principle," the mind is the essence of all things in the universe, and all moral norms and truths originate from within. Conscience is our innate moral judgment and intuitive ability, enabling us to distinguish right from wrong and good from evil; it is the fundamental principle of being human. Through continuous self-reflection and practice, we remove the veil of selfish desires and extend our inner conscience to all things—this is the attainment of true conscience. Knowledge and action are inseparable; having correct understanding requires action, deepening understanding through action, and avoiding empty talk—this is the unity of knowledge and action. Sincerity is about making one's intentions genuine, not deceiving oneself, and maintaining a pure and untainted heart; caring for the people, actively participating in society, and benefiting the people through practical actions is about being close to the people; investigating the principles of nature in concrete things, and perfecting oneself through understanding and practice is about investigating things; setting lofty goals, clarifying life objectives, and striving tirelessly to achieve ideals is about setting aspirations. 5. Zhang Defen's work: In "Meeting the Unknown Self," she advocates inner peace and tranquility, rejecting restlessness and distractions; frequent self-reflection to understand one's inner thoughts; comprehending the true meaning of life and understanding its wisdom; letting go of unnecessary burdens and freeing the mind from shackles; embracing compassion and love to warm all things in the world; harmonizing body and mind to accept the complete self; and awakening inner awareness to perceive the truth of life—all things are explored from within. "Meeting the Self That Makes Dreams Come True" encourages us to cherish beautiful dreams to illuminate our path forward; to set firm goals and anchor our aspirations; to work diligently and accumulate the capital for success; to be courageous in innovation and break through the limitations of our thinking; to persevere and not fear difficulties; to be good at seizing opportunities and keenly perceptive of timing; and to rationally plan our actions and orderly advance our dreams—starting from the present moment to realize our dreams. "Living a Brand New Life" inspires us to bravely challenge ourselves and break through comfort zones; to actively embrace change and welcome new possibilities; to continuously learn and grow, improving our own qualities; to decisively let go of the past and say goodbye to outdated patterns; to maintain an optimistic attitude and face life's ups and downs with a smile; to focus on physical and mental health and solidify the foundation of life; and to uphold our true selves and showcase our unique style. Everything begins with change. 6. Seeking the Dao on the Immortal Path: Emphasize tranquility for self-cultivation, staying away from the hustle and bustle of the world to purify the heart; be kind-hearted, compassionate, and benevolent, cultivating good relationships; understand the principles of heaven, perceive the myriad phenomena of the world, and realize one's true nature; be humble, neither arrogant nor impatient, and open-minded; live in harmony with all things, becoming one with nature; be patient and restrained, tolerating what is intolerable, cultivating a broad mind; be willing to let go, abandoning fame and fortune, and freeing oneself from shackles; diligently cultivate oneself, refining one's own skills, and tirelessly practicing the path of seeking the Dao from this moment on. These invaluable cultural treasures guide us on our life's journey, helping us to continuously improve ourselves, cultivate our character, and face life's challenges with a positive and healthy mindset and behavior. This allows us to realize our life's value and achieve inner peace and happiness. May everyone draw strength from them, allowing the wisdom of traditional culture to shine brightly in our lives. We also welcome sharing this wisdom with more people in need.
