Publisher's summary

Not All Injuries Heal True

Wu Ying saved his master from the machinations of the dark sect, but was gravely injured during the process. His body has changed, his bloodline awakened and his cultivation compromised. Physicians and healers at the Verdant Green Water can do nothing for him.

Forced to travel to a new sect for healing, Wu Ying might find opportunity in his distress. But the dark sect is not done with him, or their machinations. Caught up in the winds of war, Wu Ying and his friends must continue to balance their journey to immortality against the pull of mortal politics.

This book is a finalist for the Kindle UK Storyteller 2021.

The Second Sect is the fifth novel in the A Thousand Li series, a book on immortal cultivation, wondrous martial arts, evil cultivation sects, and spirit beasts. This series will be loved by those searching for wuxia and xianxia works and those looking for a more westernised cultivation story. The Second Sect is written by Tao Wong, the best-selling sci-fi and fantasy LitRPG author of the System Apocalypse, Adventures on Brad, and the Hidden Wishes.

Five Stars

All is great with only one complaint. It's taking too long for each book to come out. I can't wait for the next installment. Development and pacing of the story and characters is solid. Keep up the great work!

Slower than the first 4 but is a good transition

A Thousand Li is one of the 3 series I pre-order and get when they come out and Tao Wong's writing keeps getting better each novel. It makes you feel attached to the main character but no matter how much I feel like I want to be attached to the primary secondary characters I find myself not. Add in to this story to me being a transition book in the story, while it was a great book it would not be one of my top 3 favorite in the series.

Very slow

Well it feels like the could have cut 6 hours out and the book would not have had a different plot.

Excellent book in an excellent series

Almost a pure example of what I like to see in a Cultivation series. Individual advancement in power balanced with character development and a plot advancing in the wider world.

Extremely long build up

I felt like, to me, the build up of the story in this one was extremely long. Normally I like books that build up the story around it, but if seemed like 95 percent of this book was like a dog chasing its own tail.
