Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Synopsis

Lin Zheyu finds himself in an ancient land, earning a meager living as a professional storyteller. Driven by the need for security after repeated robberies, he begins training in martial arts, only to uncover a darker reality involving demons. This narrative follows the classic "hidden world" trope common in xianxia and wuxia literature, reminiscent of stories where a mundane life is shattered by the discovery of supernatural cultivation. It is ideal for readers who enjoy slow-burn progression and traditional Eastern fantasy settings. Those seeking fast-paced, urban-centric plots or immediate high-stakes action should look elsewhere. The story emphasizes steady growth and stability, utilizing its extensive length to build a detailed setting. Its standout quality lies in the transition from a fragile civilian life to the dangerous realm of demonic confrontation.
