   As the poisonous fog of Upper Moon Six enveloped the entire Daigo Mountain, the swordsmen, collapsing to their knees in despair, suddenly caught a whiff of rich aroma. In the center of a shattered sake jar, a priestess, using blood as a catalyst, danced a true Kagura—each splash of sake igniting azure flames in mid-air, burning the countless demons into scattered fire butterflies. "The so-called god of wine has never been a protector of humanity." The white-haired swordsman's blade sliced open the last jar of aged sake, the liquid reflecting the twelve crimson moons in the night sky. "Our ancestors, who lured demons to their deaths with fine wine three hundred years ago, have long since become guardians within these sake jars." • During the final battle, the entire sake cellar came alive, the beams transforming into giant skeletons spewing forth flames of sake. Tonight, at the hour of the Ox, as the shrine's ancient bell tolls twelve times, all the sake jars stored for over ten years begin to seep pale red droplets—can you hear the rustling of fabric outside the door? That might be a ceremonial robe that should have rotted four hundred years ago, now dragging bloodstains soaked in the scent of wine as it climbs your steps...

    "After Being Kidnapped to the Mountain, I Became Invincible in the City" is a typical urban cultivation web novel, belonging to the male-oriented "power fantasy" genre. These novels usually focus on the protagonist's growth from weak to strong, combining urban life with cultivation elements, and are full of satisfying moments like underdog triumphs, face-slapping, and showing off. They are suitable for readers who enjoy fast-paced, action-packed plots.

    Of all the books I've read, this one truly made me laugh and cry. The mutual redemption between the male and female leads, the unwavering love, friendship, and family ties—the epilogue was so moving, it brought me to tears. It was heartbreaking yet joyful. Seeing everyone reunited in the modern world, everyone still there, brought a genuine sense of relief. They had a fulfilling life in the ancient world, but it still felt like something was missing, something I can't quite put my finger on. I hope they're all doing well in the modern world, and always will be. After finishing it, I feel a little empty inside.

    Without a system, Gai Yue remained silent, only swinging, thrusting, parrying, slashing, cutting, and sweeping! His sword speed was fast and steady, his sword moves concise yet brimming with killing intent. There were no flashy or superfluous movements, only sharpness and lethality! Tie Lianyi was equally exaggerated; this guy truly lived up to his reputation as a renowned master, his swordsmanship heavy and his strength exaggerated. When he swept across, the surrounding area was instantly cleared. The blade cutting through the air even produced a roaring sound like waves. When his back foot landed, cracks appeared on the bluestone slabs! Zhou Che watched silently, suppressing his rapidly accelerating heartbeat. Fortunately, this wasn't a high-martial arts world, otherwise he wouldn't even have the right to be a spectator.
