Yes, I recommend "Immortal Warrior Rage" and "Modern Celestial Official," both of which are urban cultivation novels, and both of which have the existence of divine priests. Among them, the main character of "Wild Song of Immortal Martial Arts" created a Jianghu legend with his sword in a wonderful world similar to Wuxia and Liaozhai. In "Modern Heavenly Official," it described a story of an immortal palace in the Heavenly Court and a method of immortality in the mortal world. The main character was the seal of the Heavenly Official, who was in charge of the divine position in the human world. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
