The traditional way of cultivating immortals is to change their way of living. In recent years, novels about cultivating immortals have become more and more like the word "cultivating immortals" has been lost. Spiritual roots, spiritual energy, spiritual stones, spiritual veins... Cultivation has become a battle for resources. Breaking through the realm depends on taking drugs, and improving combat power depends on changing maps. The protagonist is either grabbing treasures or on his way to grab treasures. To be honest, I feel a little tired after watching too much. "I Have a Panlong Cave Heaven". The core of this book is four words: traditional cultivation of immortality. What is traditional cultivation of immortality? It is not the self-created hierarchy of novels such as the foundation-building elixir Yuanying transforms into gods, but the real order of Taoist inner alchemy - refining essence to transform Qi, refining Qi to transform into spirit, refining spirit to return to void, and refining void to combine with Tao. It's not the spiritual root that determines everything, but the root, mind, understanding, and chance. It's not a spiritual stone ore vein with high concentration of spiritual energy, but a paradise and a pure place. It's not about killing people and grabbing treasures, but about morality, cause and effect, and protecting one party. The main character in the book, Long Yu, is named Wude, which comes from benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trust. His path of cultivation is not based on plundering, but on protecting. He deals with the "ghosts" spawned by online violence, not by killing them violently, but by finding the perpetrators to apologize and offering salvation to the deceased. When he faced the Pixiu that was contaminated by evil magic, he did not smash the jade, but guided it to return to its true nature. In order to save the "earth spirit" of a century-old bell tower, he even used himself as a bridge to awaken its clarity with spiritual springs and bells. This kind of "guardian" attitude is really a breath of fresh air in the immortality literature written by "predators" everywhere today. Of course, this book is not the traditional way of writing about bitterness and hatred. It's light-hearted and even slightly funny. Long Yu's first exorcism was to block the vents with tape and cardboard. The first time he dealt with spirits was when he helped a weasel "ask for a seal." This writing method of realistic flow + urban fantasy has both classical charm and a sense of modern life. You would think that if there were really practitioners in this world, they would probably be like this - working during the day, catching ghosts at night, and writing mission reports to the Dragon Team on the weekends. Speaking of dragon groups, the organizational setting of this book is also very interesting. It is not a high-level "immortal cultivation bureau", but an organization full of institutional atmosphere - forms need to be filled out, approvals need to be made, reports need to be written, equipment needs to be registered, and tasks need to be reviewed. The character Qin Feng is the representative of the "regular army". He comes from a family of practitioners who emphasizes procedures and standards. At first, he was full of prejudice against Long Yu, a "wild person". But in cooperation after cooperation, he was impressed by Long Yu's ability and character, and eventually became a comrade who could be trusted to support him. This kind of character growth is more interesting than a simple "slap in the face". In addition, this book's unit crime solving + long-term conspiracy structure is very suitable for fragmented reading. Each unit is an independent story (using the spirit and monster core of "Zi Buyu" and "Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes"), but at the same time it advances the main line - the Seven Emotions Religion collects the essence of the "Seven Emotions" and tries to create a conspiracy of "human demons". You can pick it up and put it down at any time without worrying about forgetting the plot. Finally, say a few words of truth. If you are tired of the kind of fairy tales that "start with a brick, and you have to grab all the equipment", if you miss the traditional charm, culture, and thinking of monsters, if you want to read a novel that does not abuse the protagonist, has brains, is slightly funny, passionate but not perfect - "I Have a Panlong Cave" is worth a try. "Gods are made by mortals, but mortals have weak hearts." I hope you and I can maintain a heart of "Five Virtues" in this complicated world.
