Sword Xia of the Shu Mountains《蜀山劍俠傳》by Huanzhu Louzhu 還珠樓主 (lit. Master of Returning Pearl Loft) was published between 1932 and 1948 and is one of the most influential wuxia novels of all time. Many of the elements in this novel became standard tropes of the wuxia genre. It is also the forefather of the modern xianxia cultivation novel. Huanzhu’s cultivation system became the standard, fusing the Daoist quest for transcendence with the Buddhist reincarnation cycle and tribulation system, as well as the Confucian virtue of humaneness 仁 and the chivalrous xia 俠 archetype. At over 4.1 million Chinese characters, it is also one of the longest wuxia novels, though it remains unfinished due to the civil war in China. So the first cultivation novel was also eunuched—rather fitting.

The story follows multiple protagonists as they gradually gather together, fighting heretical sects and spirit elementals on their way to founding the Mount Emei Sect. Most outstanding among these protagonists is Li Yingqiong, who begins the novel as a girl with no martial arts abilities, and through the course of the novel cultivates to become a transcendent (aka immortal).

In this novel, plants, animals, and monsters can all become human and cultivate to transcendence, or lose their primordial spirit (aka nascent soul) and have to start all over, or be obliterated completely after failing their tribulation. Grotto-heavens and magic treasures abound, and we see the beginning of sects as major organizations in wuxia novels with important roles in the plot, such as Emei, Qingcheng, Mount Hua, Wudang, Mount Huang, Snowy Mountain, Kongtong, Kunlun, and Wutai, as well as the emergence of what would later become the archetypal eccentric beggar character. There are miraculous drugs, sword kinesis, and battles between mythical beasts, and heretic cultivators trying to cheat their way to a faster transcendence. In short, pretty much all of the elements one normally sees in the typical xianxia cultivation webnovel.

The art of winning, feng shui, witchcraft... are not groundless!

There are countless immortal palaces in the Seven Continents, and millions of cultivators are as numerous as stars. Cultivation has always been difficult. Therefore, people say, "Cultivation is more difficult than ascending to the sky." The man raised his sword and looked at the sky, but just shook his head. "It's not difficult." Cultivating to the sky is not difficult, and killing the sky... is not difficult either.

At Qingcheng No. 1 High School, there are two well-known students: one is called Song Man, the other Chu Fengqiu.

Song Man is the “top troublemaker” of the parallel class—skips classes, misbehaves, and ranks last academically, the chaotic little devil of the school.

Chu Fengqiu is the top student of the Zhiyuan class—excellent grades, beautiful appearance, and a goddess who excels at both violin and piano.

Normally, these two had nothing to do with each other, until one day, Chu Fengqiu saw Song Man casually solve a high-difficulty Olympiad math problem that had taken her ten minutes to figure out, with complicated steps.

Chu Fengqiu: ???

This girl must be hiding something!

From then on, Qingcheng No. 1 High School had big news: the goddess of the Zhiyuan class was now chasing after the school’s little devil and wouldn’t let go!

If you’re tired of all the system-driven, apocalypse, live-in-son-in-law, “playing the fool,” or brainless wish-fulfillment stories—come experience the essence of traditional xuanhuan fantasy in this novel!

Song Chen is reborn into a perilous and eerie fantasy world. Drafted by force into the army as cannon fodder, his only hope lies in a mysterious and equally sinister artifact—the Book of “Three Lives.”

This ancient tome, obtained on a stormy night, once spanned ten thousand pages. Yet now, only three remain; the other 9,997 have inexplicably decayed into dust.

There’s no doubt—the book is suspicious, and the world even more so. But trapped at the very bottom of this society, Song Chen has no choice but to claw his way forward—step by agonizing step—until he pierces the shroud of this world’s secrets and ascends to the very peak of heaven and earth.
