Xu Gongzi Shengzhi ‖ Cultivation Through Self-Cultivation: Reading His Stories Feels Like Immortals Are Right Beside You
A carrier pigeon brings a letter 🕊 I first got into Xu Gongzi's books with Lingshan, and gradually came to love the vast, lifelike worlds he builds. In a way, his worlds seem small because they're confined to Earth, yet they also feel immense, with their deep history and boundless, wondrous realms. The immortals in Xu Gongzi's stories don't wield the kind of violent power that can obliterate the Great Dao, but his writing has an airy, ethereal beauty all its own.

"The Gate of Shock" The story of an unemployed young man who was tricked into joining a pyramid scheme and mistakenly obtained cultivation techniques. He then spent 800 yuan to buy a magical artifact and embarked on the path of cultivation. He cultivated back and forth, and eventually became a unique human-demon hybrid, a story that has been told throughout history.
Unfortunately, the seventh beaver was not spotted at Qilishantang.
Six adorable tanuki 😍
I'm grateful to this book for helping me avoid a pyramid scheme back then.
To be honest, it's been quite a while. Looking back, it was 2016. Today, I was looking for something to read and suddenly saw your new book, which immediately reminded me of "The Gate of Shock." Eight years have passed in the blink of an eye. I was a sophomore in college then, and a classmate told me about a great opportunity to study and improve together at a hotel at the foot of Wudang Mountain.
Even today, this 12-year-old book is a masterpiece not to be missed. The delicate writing is simple and unadorned, and the plot is full of fun. I truly admire the readers who went to great lengths to help the author by going into a pyramid scheme. I still have a physical copy of this book at home. It's a masterpiece worth savoring slowly. I only discovered it on Qidian today.
I just read the synopsis, and I don't understand what the author's resentment is about age. People over 20 are usually in college or have just graduated; what can they possibly achieve? Millions of graduates every year live ordinary lives, struggling to survive in this world. Without good parents, they're just another face in the crowd.
I need to show off my Flying Lightning Stone.
Mr. Xu's books are so well-written, why aren't they more popular? 🤫
What's wrong with you, young master? You're a veteran online novelist, how come Qidian doesn't even give you the status of a top-tier author?
Xu Gongzi is the only author I've ever seen who can write fantasy and supernatural/superpowered novels in a slice-of-life, heartwarming style. 👍👍
The young master's book is captivating
After reading "Shen You", I want to go to Xuancheng; after reading this book, I want to visit Suzhou.
