   This is an older book, featuring a single female protagonist, no system, and not a mindless wish-fulfillment novel; its structure is rigorous. *Mortal Bones* breaks away from the traditional cultivation novel's emphasis on talent, showcasing the story of ordinary people achieving success on the path of cultivation through relentless effort and unwavering faith, told from the perspective of the protagonist, Xu Taiping. It helps readers understand that cultivation is not exclusive to the gifted; everyone has the opportunity to create their own legend. 2. Plot Structure: - The plot is tight and full of tension. From the moment the protagonist, Xu Taiping, embarks on his cultivation journey, he constantly faces various challenges and difficulties, such as internal corruption and power struggles within his sect, competition with other cultivators, and threats from demons and monsters. These interconnected plots keep readers highly engaged throughout the story.
