Publisher's summary

International politics meets immortal blade

The war-mongering kingdom of Cai has begun to stir once again, the long held peace brought to the brink by a widespread drought. Now, the neighbouring kingdoms of Wei and Shen must ally together to deal with the Cai or see the flames of war spread over both nations once again.

Wu Ying is brought into the negotiations for his reputation and strength, but the former farmer and now Head of the Wandering Gatherers is a fish out of water in these political waters. More and more, he wonders where morality and practicality end as he watches the maneuverings of those in power, all while the hungering maw of the Cai kingdom and its powerful king watch over the squabble.

Between kingdoms and cultivators and the demands of an all consuming dao, can there be a peace that isn't won at the end of a blade?

A Thousand Li: the Fourth Fall is the eleventh book of the xianxia series, A Thousand Li. It's the second book of the final arc of Wu Ying's journey to immortality, the trials and tribulations he faces and the leg of his journey. Tao Wong is the bestselling author of the System Apocalypse, Hidden Wishes and Adventures on Brad series.

Top tier as always

Definitely without a doubt the best cultivation story. Absolutely, crazy how much the characters have grown and overall the story progression. Tao Wong thank you do much for this addition to a great story. Travis thank you as always for bringing the story to life with this expert narration and performance.

What a major letdown! New story arc same plot line.

It would be nice if the Author could come up with a different storyline than having the main character heavily injured at the end of every other book in this series. Then the main character has to spend the next book or two to find a way to heal himself. I will say the writing is quite nice and flow elegantly. Despite the excellent writing the story arcs keeps repeating themselves. I think this is now the third time the main character has several injured himself at the end of the book so much so that he has to spend the next couple of books to try to find a way to fix the damage. But of course, since this is going to be the main character, “final adventure”, the injury at the end of this book had to be the greatest of them all.

lackluster

It seemed like the author phoned this one in. I feel like essence of this novel would have been a better short story, as nothing happened. I can only point out two real things that mattered and everything else was superfluous

Just let him be strong

the ending is tedious. I will drop this author if he does another 3 books to fix the mc, especially since our boy just got his full power back this book, and spent most of it hiding it for "politics".

No progression in the story for the first 9 hours

I had been enjoying the series up to now, but with this one I'm out. The first 3/4 of the book consists of the protagonist complaining about the bureaucracy of the sect and about being involved in diplomacy with neighbouring kingdom. The book picks up towards the end with a few fight scenes but you could easily skip from the end of Book 10 to the last 3 hrs of this one and not miss anything. Not worth it! No new world building, no character development, no movement in overall storyline outside the last chapter.
Travis Baldree was solid as usual but couldn't save it.

Soooo boring

I liked this series and made it this far. I also prefer slower progression and dislike every thing constantly going wrong. But this book was so boring with no story arch, development, or challenges it just hurt to keep listening
