   Reader note

   God... *Nine Realms of Mortal Immortals* - A plot that subverts expectations: The protagonist, Fang Chen, falls from the military god of the Great Xia Kingdom to a blind and crippled "cripple." In dire straits, relying on his "Flawless Mind" and "Inner Divine Realm" abilities, he gradually stirs up the winds and clouds of the Nine Realms, rejecting the common "overpowered protagonist" trope and filled with suspense and surprises. - A rich world of cultivation: The novel constructs a grand world encompassing the Nine Realms, the Underworld, and the Ancient Immortal Path. Elements such as sect rivalry and the Blood Spirit Cult's conspiracies intertwine, with diverse settings like the Cangwu Secret Realm, the Han River Kingdom, the White Tiger Empire, the Central Plains Kingdom, and the Northern Han Immortal Realm providing ample space for the story's development. - A charismatic protagonist: Fang Chen possesses a resilient and exceptionally intelligent character. He remains unyielding in the face of humiliation and adversity. His line, "How much is your face worth?" Reveals his arrogance in challenging immortals despite his mortal status. At the same time, he has the world in his heart and is willing to use his immortal sword to usher in an era of peace, making him extremely charismatic. - Vivid Character Portrayal: From the straightforwardness of Langya Wenqiu of the Xuxian Sword Sect to the sudden awakening of Jue Wudi after falling into the realm of a wandering soul, each supporting character is fleshed out, enriching the novel's character system and making the story more complete. - Innovative Inner Realm Sacred Domain System: The novel features a unique "Inner Realm Sacred Domain" cultivation system, where cultivators project their inner realms into the mortal world, even creating their own realm. Fang Chen, relying on the "Inner Realm Divine Domain" condensed from the *Reincarnation Undying Technique*, crushes his peers with a "one-and-a-half-step" cultivation level, making the battle scenes more imaginative and logical. - Integration of Traditional Elements: The author skillfully integrates traditional Five Elements techniques with the Dao of the Soul, such as "ten thousand swords unleashed to flatten the mountain gate" and "controlling the Five Elements to create talismans and refine pills," seamlessly connecting the daily life of cultivation with a grand worldview, possessing both the charm of traditional cultivation and novel settings. This is truly divine!
