A Thousand Li Books 1-3: An Omnibus Collection for a Xianxia Cultivation Series (A Thousand Li Omnibus Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 136 ratings

Given a chance at immortality, can Wu Ying grasp the fleeting opportunity?

Long Wu Ying never expected to join a Sect or become a real cultivator. His days were spent studying, planting rice on the family farm and spending time with his friends. Fate, however, has different plans for Wu Ying, forcing him to decide between his common, pedestrian life and the exciting, blood soaked life of a cultivator.

This collection contains the first three books of A Thousand Li, which traces Wu Ying’s humble beginnings as a peasant to his development as a powerful cultivator of the Verdant Green Waters Sect and collects the first arc of this Asian epic fantasy.

A Thousand Li is a series on cultivation, immortals, wondrous martial art styles and spirit beasts. It is sure to please wuxia and xianxia fans, as well as those looking for a more westernised cultivation story. A Thousand Li is written by Tao Wong, the bestselling scifi and fantasy LitRPG author of the System Apocalypse, Adventures on Brad and the Hidden Wishes.

Books included:
- The First Step
- The First Stop

Wu Ying

Wu Ying

Wu Ying never expected to be a cultivator. He was content to follow in his family’s footsteps and become a farmer under Lord Wen.

Fate has other plans, and when given the opportunity, he grasps it tight. Wu Ying is still uncertain about his place in the sect, his Master and his martial sister and desperately hopes not to shame himself or his family by failing out of the sect.

    Enjoyable, fast-paced, fun/engaging characters. Losing sleep cause it's hard to put down. Inhaled the first three books in less than 48 hours. Ready for more; truly delightful.

    A great place to start, especially if you're not super familiar with cultivation. Not only that, a fun and engaging read.
  • Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2024
    Drawing heavily on Chinese mythology and history, and I guess on martial arts films, this is an in-depth story of someone whose world is expanding as he learns and advances in a mystical discipline, makes friends and enemies, and has his perspectives widened by life-changing experiences.
  • Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2022
    This story is fantastic. The characters are very well done, with depth and goals. The MC is not OP but he works hard and are never the best one around. Love his growth and the explanations of his cultivating enlightenment.
    I also enjoy the appendix which is added l, ut brings more understanding to the Chinese lore that are being referenced and it's very easy to access. Great reading. Enjoy everyone!

    I finished the System Apocalypse series and thought to try this out and I have finished the series (to book 7). Tao Wong has become my standard for LitRPG and Cultivation series, unfortunately, which has me way too critical about other writers books.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting series on cultivation
    Reviewed in Canada on February 2, 2024
    This is not heavy Wuxia styled though it has some of that but is about the slow growth as the main character learns and grows through Chi cultivation.

    The stories have their slow spots but the story is also interesting especially if you like the genre..

    I am up to book 9 and still reading
