Publisher's summary

In the Celestial Empire, a land ruled by Immortals and stalked by Spirits and Beasts, a young girl from the slums of an unimportant city is found to have the Talent that may allow her to become an Immortal herself.

Sent to the storied Argent Peak Sect to harness her talent, she must work desperately to catch up to peers who have been preparing to walk the Way for years. The Sect grants new students only three months to prepare and grow before the true challenges begin and the disciples are freed to battle each other for resources and strength.

Contending with tests, strange teachers, unfriendly peers, and her own ignorance, Ling Qi must not only defeat many obstacles, but find those willing to stand at her side when the truce ends.

Can she learn to not only survive, but thrive on that journey?

Inspired by ancient folklore, modern martial arts, and Xianxia, this fantasy novel offers a mixture of life and action while developing a world both fantastic in setting yet familiar in the humanity of its inhabitants.

Intriguing

It captures you from the beginning and leaves you wanting more, actually glad I chose a teen book it was a good change and I found this type of story very intriguing

amazing book

I love seeing Character growth and gaining strength Definitely gonna read book 2 .almost perfect 🥰 amazing performance and excellent writing
finished it in 3 days

4.5 Its worth its, ya know what i mean?

If you like cultivation novels then this is definitely worth a credit. Its way better then a bunch of the junk out there and I enjoyed the length and pace of progression. This was the first female MC in a cultivation novel for me, and i found it refreshing, none of that pervasive harem cheese. The world build and cultivation system and techniques are good and the ending definitely had me interested in how the powers will develop. Only a few gripes like several phrases being used repeatedly (UNoWatIMean and every advantage). Performance was good, there was voices for each character and the personality of each was brought out. I will ne getting the next one

What an incredible SUPRISE!!

I picked this book because it was free and I can tolerate most things for the base level of what it is. The fact it was over 20 hours, as a truck driver, it was well worth trying it out.

This is the first series that I will actually buy credits for. It's an engaging story that I understood. I felt not only the good guys, but was moved by the cringe of the bad guys.

Story was woven well. The narration while. Kind of dry. Gave good variation to the characters. I'll be buying the rest of the series for sure.

Ultimate fantasy .

Excellent narration and story. Hopefully the next one will be as good. Could not stop listening A little LitRPG without ever mentioning a game of and kind Overall loved the book and would recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy LitRPG etc

Good read.

Great reader. Got right into the story. Logical progression. Character development on several fronts. Well paced.

character driven cultivation hits perfectly

This over comes so many of the normal pitfalls of the genre. At the same time it capitalizes on many of the things that make the genre enjoyable. Cannot recommend enough if you enjoy cultivation stories but are very tired of flat characters and MCs that never develop. This series has something for you.

what a fun story.

I love female heroines. Fun read with the spirituality thrown in. I'm looking forward to the next book.

Worth it

Brilliant, once I got my head around the non-Eurocentric naming conventions I couldn’t put it away.

Not bad

I enjoyed the cultivation story , Although the pace was a little slow there could have been much more action involved
