Six-Faced Immortal Guest

Zhao Xuan has lived sixty-eight years, yet his appearance has remained forever at eighteen.

The villagers treat him like a monster, so he has no choice but to hold a funeral for himself and leave the mountain village with Qing Niu Jing Qing, a stubborn old ox who has also lived an unusually long life.

By accident, he obtains the first of six mysterious masks—the Yellow Mask—and also a book, The Chapter of Observing Life in All Trades, that no one has ever successfully cultivated.

Others cultivate swords, techniques, and immortal fate.

Zhao Xuan, however, slowly learns beast-raising, farming, herb identification, cooking, and carpentry one by one.

He does not compete for first place or snatch opportunities; he only wants to live a little longer and see the smoke and fire of the mortal world.

But as the Yellow, White, Red, Purple, Black, and Gold masks gradually appear, he realizes that his lack of aging may not be immortality.

Rather, it may be that from the very beginning, this world’s time forgot him.
