Today I would like to recommend to you a cultivation novel that is updated slowly but has an excellent reputation.

"The Legend of the Great Sage", author: Dream Talker, level 5 author.

Category: Xianxia-Cultivation Civilization.

【Introduction】

The supreme one among demons is called "Great Sage".

The young man walked out of the mountain village, traveled all over the world, and step by step entered the myths and legends and became a legend.

【Golden Ten Chapters】

Chapter One: The Blue Ox Speaks. The protagonist's name is Li Qingshan, nicknamed Li Er. He lives in an ordinary farming family. His parents died young, and his sister-in-law treats him terribly, leaving him with all the housework. If he doesn't do it, he won't eat. Fifteen years have passed, and he's tired of working hard. He rides the Blue Ox, intending to set it free. At the moment of farewell, the Blue Ox speaks, revealing he's also a time traveler with magical powers. The Blue Ox goes hunting in the mountains, promising to bring the protagonist meat so he can be strong enough to cultivate. Can the ox's words be trusted?

Chapter Two: Eating Meat to Practice. The protagonist is driven out by his sister-in-law to search for a cow, but he searches all day and finds none. As night falls, the blue cow unexpectedly returns with a wild boar, which he boils and begins to cook. Upon seeing it, his brother and sister-in-law question the origins of the boar and try to take it to the market to sell, but the protagonist firmly refuses and proposes a division of the family. After feasting on meat all night, the protagonist sheds tears of happiness. It smells so good!
Chapter 3: Humiliation during the Family Division. The protagonist hired help to build a house, offering a piece of wild boar meat to anyone who offered. A fortune-teller joined in the fun, saying some unpleasant things, but the protagonist sent her away. On the day of the family division, he went to the village ancestral hall and was severely bullied by a group of seemingly respectable people. His brother and sister-in-law teamed up to seize the land left to him by his parents.

Chapter 4: Drunk and Murder. The protagonist is humiliated, and Qingniu witnesses it, but offers no help. He even offers the protagonist a pot of wine and asks him to kill, claiming it's a test of his righteousness. Believing this, the protagonist, knife in hand, goes to the place where the ruffians lived during the day, follows a particularly bad ruffian, and kills him.

Chapter 5: Nine Oxen and Two Tigers. The villagers speculate that the protagonist committed murder, but lack evidence. Thanks to the neighbors' support, the protagonist remains unharmed for the time being. That evening, Qingniu begins teaching the protagonist the Bull Demon Power Fist, an ancient magical skill that grants the power of nine oxen and two tigers. The protagonist, gifted with talent, progresses rapidly. But the matter of murder is not something that can be easily dismissed.

Chapter 6: A small vendetta. Three ruffians are bold enough to confront the protagonist, fearing Li Qingshan will kill them too. The protagonist practices boxing in front of them as a deterrent, then takes them home, humiliates his sister-in-law, and extracts the money from the land sale. Finally, he gives the money to his brother and sister-in-law, and the vengeance is finally settled.

Chapter 7: Making a Great Vow. The protagonist refuses the three ruffians' offer to join his gang and sends them away. Qingniu asks the reason, and the protagonist makes a great vow, planting a seed of extraordinary power in his heart. As for the admiration or concern of the other villagers, he no longer cares about them.

Chapter 8: Going to the Hongmen Banquet. The protagonist rises early and stays up late every day to practice martial arts at home, causing those who have grudges against him to worry and have trouble eating or sleeping. This is especially true for Manager Liu, the land buyer, who has no choice but to host a Hongmen Banquet to entertain the protagonist.

Chapter 9: A common man's rage. The protagonist decisively attends the banquet. The village chief's two sons attempt to intimidate him, but the protagonist easily defeats them. He tells the farmhands who came to attack him to eat and drink first, and to wait until they've had enough food and drink before fighting. However, the protagonist suddenly becomes murderous. (DNF Ashura's murderous intent fluctuates~)

Chapter 10: No God Above. At the banquet, faced with the changing expressions of the crowd, the protagonist realizes that even the so-called gods seem less sacred in the face of absolute force. After he leaves, everyone's expressions vary. The fortune-teller, however, declares the protagonist's death imminent. When she returns home, she discovers she has indeed raised a little ghost.

【Brief Comment】

About the Author

The Dream Talker, a Level 5 author, is the author of "The Legend of the Great Sage", "The Story of Xu Xian" and "The Travels of a Druid".

Currently, his books cannot be searched on the web version, and there are only two of them on the APP, and "The Legend of Xu Xian" is missing.

summary of the story
This book has been serialized for eight years. The number of words is very small and it is completely unable to keep up with the update speed of normal online writers.

Judging from the beginning, this book is quite violent.

Although he was deceived and bullied by his brother and sister-in-law, killing someone for this reason still seemed too dark. If it were made public, it would cause discomfort to others.

If I have to explain it, I can only understand it as a demonic world where human life is worthless. Especially in the later stages, when the protagonist fights others, he always adheres to the principle of killing the evil leader first and then the accomplices, and he treats the enemy with all his might.

Character characteristics
As a time traveler, the protagonist embarks on the path of cultivation with the help of Qingniu, who is also a time traveler.

Although he practiced the way of the devil, he had to survive countless disasters and escape the fate of a mortal. However, the dangers and enemies he faced from then on became more terrifying.

In order to survive, he can only keep fighting!
After all, becoming a great sage is not an easy road from the beginning.

Style characteristics
The style of this book tends to be a dark cultivation novel. The author vividly depicts the ruthlessness and cruelty of the demon world, recreating a magical world with a slightly primitive atmosphere.

The author has a very creative mind and actually came up with the true meaning of "the strength of nine oxen and two tigers". I just don't know whether the "strength of one ox" and "the strength of one chicken" often mentioned in many novels nowadays come from this book.

Entering Taoism with the power of the demon god is a typical example of an unconventional path. This is similar to the recently completed "Weed Flow" and "Snake Flow".

So, if you also like to read novels about cultivation of demons and gods, you might as well take a look.

【to sum up】

Writing is not easy, so cherish every moment!

I’m Cang Yiwei, and I’m here to promote “Cang’s Ramblings”!
Welcome to the paradise of book reviews.

【Cang's Ramblings】

This book seems to have been recommended by a friend from Zhengshulou.

I've taken a quick look at it before, but didn't take it seriously.

After reading it this time, I found that there are still many views in the early part of the book that are not suitable for promotion.

The update speed is also very slow, almost comparable to that of the monthly update author Sister Jiao.

I also realized that these older generation authors don’t care about updates at all, let alone the critical need for perfect attendance.

Speaking of the angry banana, I actually have a thousand things I don't understand.

He is very active on Weibo every day and can offer many insights on various topics.

The only thing I don’t care about is the updates of "The Son-in-law".

They are really not diligent authors.

Of course, maybe they worked very hard behind the scenes, but they just didn't show it.

But the hard-working eagle always gives people the impression of being too hardworking and a little watered down.

Alas, it is clear that writing is not easy and no one can please all readers.

I don't have any worries about this.

I only have those few readers.

If you coax them well, can you hold on to full attendance?
No, it can accumulate popularity!
How about this wave of invisible flattery, is it effective?
