Record of Cavern-Heavens and Blissful Lands
It consists of one volume and is included in the Biographical Category under The Dongxuan Section of The Daozang.The book classifies Taoist grotto heavens and blessed lands into more than ten categories, briefly describing their geographical features, products, and immortal figures. The records of the Ten Continents and Three Islands are largely based on Records of the Ten Continents; the accounts of the Ten Great Grotto Heavens, Thirty-Six Small Grotto Heavens, Seventy-Two Blessed Lands, and Twenty-Four Transformations are roughly consistent with those in Volumes 27 to 28 of Seven Bamboo Slips of the Cloud Satchel.
