Mortal Cultivation Legend and The Defiant Immortal were both web novels that were serialized by Qidian Chinese Network. Both were Xianxia novels, so many readers would compare these two works. However, on July 14, 2022, the China Judgement Network published the second-instance judgment of the author of " The Legend of Mortal Cultivation ", Wang Yu, suing the author of " The Defiant Immortal," Er Gen, for copyright violation and unfair competition disputes. In this case, the Beijing intellectual property court rejected Er Gen's appeal in the second instance and upheld the original judgment. It determined that Er Gen's novel," The Defiant Immortal," constituted an adaptation of Wang Yu's novel," The Legend of Mortal Cultivation." It was decided that Er Gen would compensate the economic loss of 1 million yuan and reasonable litigation expenses of more than 40,000 yuan. Therefore, it could be said that the Defiant Immortal had plagiarized the Mortal Cultivation Biography.
