6 新 The New Legend of Mount Shu 新蜀山传 Yu Zhaojun玉爪俊Xianxia1.5M WordsCompleted Immortals have lived for ages. Why seek out trouble? Those with great powers naturally pay no mind to the tiny shifts of the stars. The only ones to pity are ordinary people from the modern world, innocently transmigrated to Shushan. Amid the struggle between good and evil, though, what is good, and what is evil? Perhaps being a good person among the bad isn't such a bad thing. 0Votes226.1kRecs41kFans

Travel through time to become Tang Sanzang and successfully obtain the scriptures. He secluded himself for meditation, and upon waking, the world had changed beyond recognition. All the gods and Buddhas in the sky had vanished like smoke. Only the steel forest, with its towering buildings, has somehow returned to modernity? It's just a game of gods and demons, a cycle of reincarnation, a chaotic dance of demons and monsters. There's a demonic aura! "Step back and let your master handle this." Tang Luo revealed his old "compassionate" smile.

Curator note

Cheng Tianle, true to his name, is over twenty years old and has accomplished nothing, yet he is always cheerful and carefree. He wandered to Suzhou, living a life of leisure and eating and lodging, but by chance and in a daze, he obtained the inheritance of demon cultivation techniques. When he came to his senses, it was as if he had opened a door to wonder in the world. It turns out that all around us, in our daily lives, on the streets and alleys, there are all sorts of demons. They are no different from ordinary people, and ordinary people cannot tell them apart. For example, your company boss may be some kind of demon in disguise; and the trendy urban woman you meet on the street may be the legendary fox spirit. Having experienced the dangers of the world, he finally understood that the methods of demon cultivation differed from those of humans and could not be practiced arbitrarily. Cheng Tianle also began to ponder why these demons mingled in the human world and lived among us. In fact, from ancient times to the present, there have always been demons and spirits in the human world, and their actions are a result of human behavior—as many kinds of people exist in the world, so too will there be different kinds of beings.

Mei Xi, an undergraduate student at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, has been wandering the world since childhood. She struggled to get into university and was in her second year when she unexpectedly traveled back in time to the Tang Dynasty. He was astonished to find himself in a world quite different from that described in history books; things that existed only in myths and legends were actually happening around him. How should he conduct himself? Was history wrong, or had his arrival created the history that later generations would witness? People can't help but fantasize about time travel and rebirth, hoping to make up for all the regrets in their hearts. Everyone hopes to build their world into a perfect sacred mountain. In the end, it all comes down to that ancient saying—the sacred mountain is only in your heart. —— I have completed serializing three novels, "Divine Journey," "Ghost Stock," and "Human Desire," on Qidian.com.

One day, Song Shuhang accidentally joined a chat group for hardcore fans of fantasy novels and chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur). The group members all addressed each other as "fellow Daoists," and their nicknames were filled with various titles like "Lord of a Palace," "Master of a Cave," "True Person," and "Celestial Master." Even the group owner's lost pet dog was referred to as a "Great Demon Dog Who Ran Away from Home." They spent all their time discussing alchemy, exploring secret realms, and cultivation techniques. One day, after lurking for a long time, he suddenly discovered that... Every single member of the group was actually a cultivator, the kind who could move mountains and overturn seas and live for thousands of years!

The prices are exorbitant; a bowl of fried rice with soup costs 288 RMB, oh, and it includes a side of kimchi, yet even so, long queues form. They don't accept reservations, only walk-ins, and countless people arrive by private jet specifically to queue, though of course, no parking or landing spots are provided. The service is appalling; customers are expected to serve themselves, clear their own dishes, and even wipe the tables!
