Pretty good but the story telling is revolting

by Kichido

Rating: 6.5 / 10.0

(read all 6010 chapters) The story was pretty good except for the parts that focused on war, which was 25-33% of the entire story and maybe I should give it an extra point for the sheer length of it.

I also like that it appeared to be a more mature story, I mean there were tons of bloody killings and probably the most sex I've ever seen in a chinese story (which still isn't that much and disappeared in the later half) but in the end it still ended childishly with the whole good vs evil trope and enemies becoming friends, although it was more subtle than that and not to the extent you see in anime.

So in short, the story was pretty good to great in the first half and I wish it would have ended there, it would have been more enjoyable. Instead the first part of the 2nd half is just a slow setup for the war that takes up the entire 2nd part of the 2nd half and I have a lot of issues with that. Since it's a war, gone are the funny bits, the adventure aspect, the sex, basically anything interesting/entertaining and instead we get the stuff that comes with war, and newsflash: war isn't entertaining and it drags on for far to long, plus as the story continues the author has more and more stuff to rehash for the 1000th time.

And after suffering through all that war we only get 1-2 chapters after it, what a let down.

As usual (since he's a chinese author) his story telling skills can only be described as revolting, just endless amounts of recaps, summaries, pointing out the obvious, speculating, repeats... etc. Anywhere from 30 to 80% of the text is irrelevant, with an average of 50%. This has the effect of completely destroying the pacing, you even forget what the conversation was about or with who since the author tends to add 3-5 pages worth of irrelevant garbage in between dialogues. The whole story could be shortened down from 6000 to 3000 chapters and not only would you not miss out on anything, it would greatly increase the enjoyment of it.

Thankfully the manga version eliminates all that, but it also changes a few things, removes or heavily shortens all sex scenes and even leaves a few things out so I opted to read the novel version instead, but I'm not sure that was the best decision.

Cultivation worlds are my favorite setting but chinese authors are the absolute worst at story telling so this might be the last one I ever read.

I recommend reading this in tandem with its manga version and switch to the one you like best if need be.

Very interesting development of the MC

by noisyparker

Rating: 10.0 / 10.0

After 850+ chapters now, I can say the scope of the story, and the nature of the MC, unfolds in a way that is both very natural (in of how it progresses) and very bold (in of how different it becomes over time).

I am especially impressed with the way the author starts by immersing us in a simple setting with a seemingly-simple MC, and brings us along as we learn the depths to both. Best of all, the MC is developed consistently... what you see later is not inconsistent with his younger self; just more mature, or more in keeping with his expanded abilities and responsibilities. That kind of development is hard to get right, and I was pleasantly surprised to find it so well-executed here.

The MC's emphasis on relationships based on trust also leads to some warm segments of the story (especially in Volume 4, where he happens to reconnect with many people he had met earlier in the story). It also leads to a very "practical" reaction when he is dealing with people who consistently demonstrate that they cannot be trusted. If they will be a threat to him, he is not shy about removing them.

As for the setting, it is nicely-developed over time, and features many of the elements that readers of the genre will expect (conflicts between cultivation levels, multiple realms, competing sects, hidden places to explore, and so on). The luckiness of the MC in such stories is present, but avoids common shortcomings, like having the MC be so heavily-carried by his luck that there is effectively no personal strength, or having him pull un-foreshadowed escape abilities out of his hat just when they are needed.

Overall, I'd say this is a very, very solid entry in this genre.

Okay but needs more

by bull3thole

Rating: 7.0 / 10.0

The novel is still in the early stage in of plot. So far, it seems like a generic novel. The MC is hard worker who is currently just training to grow stronger, and fighting people that underestimated him. Nothing big happens to the MC yet because he is still weak compared to the powerhouses, so people don't know how badass the MC will be in the future.

The MC personality is so-so because he haven't experience the outside world yet. He is currently still at his school and hasn't adventure out yet so he's like a blank page waiting to be written.

Overall, I rather read this novel when there are hundreds of chapters translated . I can tell that the novel will get better later on, but for right now, nothing spectacular has happened yet.
