   This is an ensemble piece. The Divine Dao Sect's leader, Immortal Venerable Yan Chen, had seven disciples. In the great battle, only the junior sister remained. The junior sister waited for her senior sister for ten thousand years, but sadly, she never saw her beloved senior sister again. During this time, the junior sister found the reincarnations of her senior brothers and sisters. In the end, her senior sister returned and became a god. — Jing Ze and Tang Fuli clapped their hands and smiled at each other: "We are brothers, we'll go to the battlefield together, we'll cross the Yellow Springs together, we'll be together in life and death." Yun Qingye led Ran Qingdai and the people of the Northern Underworld to the battlefield. Behind them, a small child looked at them pitifully: "Daddy, Mommy, when will you come back?" Ran Qingdai smiled and said, "Good boy, next time you come back, Mommy will bring you delicious cakes." In that battle, the world was in chaos, the heavens and earth were out of balance, black smoke filled the sky, and the bones of birds and beasts were scattered everywhere. Red rain and fluttering robes rained down on the earth, and the cries of despair and sorrow moved heaven and earth. That battle meant that none of Yan Chen's four disciples returned. Yun Chenzi of the Buddhist sect shattered his Buddha bones. Hei Xuan lost half his lifespan. Tingyuan Moyu disappeared from the mortal realm. Countless human relatives and friends could no longer wait for their loved ones to return, for their friends to enjoy themselves. The demon race was banished from the cultivation world. The demon race was forever sealed in the Nine Netherworld. Qin Zhi destroyed her divine veins to kill the Demon Emperor, cutting off the demon race's chance to ascend. Qin Zhi opened her golden eyes, those eyes devoid of any emotion, as indifferent and ruthless as a deity. One sword, and all things from the outer realms scattered. One sword, and the Immortal Realm fell, connecting with the Three Thousand Realms, forever ending the Immortal Realm. One sword, and the shattered sky was mended. After the three swords, the divine register shattered, and the spiritual power in her body released a flood, smoothing the earth. All things were reborn, spiritual veins gathered, and the evil aura was dispelled. Heroic souls gathered, and above the Yellow Springs, the other shore flowers bloomed. One person dies, all things live. Opening her eyes again, she was in the Void Realm. — Mu Lingyao lowered her head: "Of the Seven Masters of the Sect Leader Peak, only I remain." "Senior Sister, it's been a hundred thousand years. All the new disciples who joined the sect have become your little fans." "I've found my senior sisters and brothers too." "They are, yet it seems not to be." "In any case, they are all living happily." "Humanity is strong; no foreign races bully us anymore." "I've also protected the Divine Dao Sect; it's still the number one sect in the cultivation world." "But Senior Sister, when will you return?" "My lifespan is nearing its end." "If you don't return soon, I... Won't be able to see you one last time." She rambled on, her eyes growing heavier. In a daze, she seemed to hear a distant call: "Junior Sister—" She struggled to open her eyes. The afterglow of the sunset shone outside the magnificent golden hall, the reflected light making her pale purple robes with gold trim gleam. She seemed to see her eldest senior sister looking at them tenderly, her second senior sister carrying her zither with her arms crossed, her third senior brother holding a water-ink fan and smiling faintly as he called to her, her fourth senior brother toying with the spirit furnace at his waist, her fifth senior sister alluringly squinting at someone in the distance, and her sixth senior brother carrying a sword case with a haughty smile. She even turned back to wave to the new disciples behind her, then ran towards the six of them, her smile as radiant as the stars. Her aged hand fell, the purple bracelet slipping from her wrist. She smiled, then slowly closed her eyes. The crisp sound of the jade bracelet shattering echoed simultaneously from all six places, like a final farewell, a final lament.

    "It is my choice to establish a heart for heaven and earth, and to secure a destiny for the people." "The seventh precept of the Supreme Sect states: If my fellow Daoists are in peril, disciples of the Supreme Sect shall sacrifice their lives for righteousness and save the world." I'm crying so hard! The scope is truly grand—an ensemble cast, cultivation, a strong female lead, numerous foreshadowing elements, and deeply embedded plot points that will astound you later. It has a sense of strategic mastery. The female lead is very wise, using the world as a chessboard and all living beings as pawns; she is the strongest general in her own hands. The writing is absolutely stunning. Azhi's words are incredibly evocative and vivid, with beautiful and delicate diction. The characters are portrayed with exquisite detail, and the writing is masterful in its depiction of both tragedy and sweetness, and the poignant emotions. I'm crying so much! In the previous timeline, those once dazzling and spirited young men, some died, some were injured—whether due to their pure hearts or their misguided paths, all became sources of deep regret. The young man in my heart amazed everyone, but he couldn't amaze himself. She possessed eyes that saw through the world with keen insight, yet a heart that observed the smallest suffering without being able to bear it. In the later timeline, my beloved Dudu ferried her closest friends and family to the world, forgetting only herself. She sacrificed everything, hoping for a chance to cross the river and for barren trees to spring again. The characters in Azhi's writing are vivid and realistic, flesh and blood, with their own values, strengths, and weaknesses. There is no absolute good or evil, only different perspectives. After being ferried by Dudu, they also ferried her in return. Our Dudu is not purely a victim; she has the warmth of many people. The better they live in the later timeline, the more heartbreaking the earlier timeline becomes. Of course, our Dudu is a renowned sickly beauty, with delicate features that exude youthful charm, coupled with a touch of aloofness, coldness, and fragility. Her beauty is androgynous, her mind is clear, she is shrewd and calculating, a smiling tiger with a calm exterior but a madman inside. In the latter half, she is a treat for those who love white hair; she may not necessarily charm men, but she will definitely charm women. Moreover, the fellow Daoists of our Supreme Sect are all very good-looking, each with their own unique style. Azhi's writing is truly amazing; I have over 99 notes just on the descriptions of the setting and characters (excerpt from a blog post). Also, please don't be influenced by the pairings; the entire story is clean. The male lead has barely uttered any ambiguous words. Azhi has said that the male lead can be used to advance the plot, and their relationship is more like a CP (couple pairing), a friend who goes crazy with her, an accomplice in defying fate. Whether you want to ship them or not is up to you. Dudu is a true female lead, not a melodramatic story of a strong woman and an even stronger man. By the end, I felt that she should be carefree and playful in the world. In the male lead's heart, she should be a god who is tainted by worldly affairs but not bound by them, sacred but not heartless or desireless.

    "My name is Ning Xin. When you see this, I've already been pulled onto the Spirit Platform, publicly tested for my spiritual root, and received seven blessings from the Heavenly Dao..." That day, the entire cultivation world was in an uproar. "The Heavenly Dao has been silent for over a thousand years, without any response. Unexpectedly, once it responds, it bestows a blessing upon someone." "Who is that person who received the Heavenly Dao's blessing?" — During the personal discipleship ceremony, Ning Xin successfully refined a top-grade Cleansing Heart Pill on her first attempt, causing a sensation. "Wait! Aren't you a pill refiner?! Why are you drawing talismans?!" "Shh, of course, it's because I'm also a talisman cultivator!" "??!" — From then on, everyone knew that the Heavenly Evolution Sect had taken in a peerless genius who was skilled in both pill refining and talisman cultivation. Everyone envied her. That day, a mysterious girl descended upon Nanzhao, awakened the divine beast Emperor Dragon, withstood hundreds of world-destroying lightning tribulations, and purified the entire Nanzhao realm. The Heavenly Dao said, "Thank you for helping me and reclaiming one-tenth of my fortune, allowing me to break free of my shackles." On that very day, a mysterious realm descended: "Withered trees bloom again, rotten wood blossoms." An invisible boundary enveloped the realm, and all evil spirits trembled at the mere sight of Ning Xin. "I heard you wanted to kill me?" "Now I stand before you, why don't you come and kill me?"
