Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Ye Xiao was a superior cultivator in his previous life. The three factions of the realm kill millions of people every time they attempt to seize cultivation resources. Wealthy towns turn to wastelands in just a single night. They cover up their crime with an assertion that the towns were suffering from pestilence and disasters.

They forcibly hold all the resources for cultivation, monopolize all valuable practice materials, and keep outsiders from cultivating so that only their three factions could cultivate in the realm. Ye Xiao declared war against the three factions in retaliation for their actions. He fought alone and ended up dying in vain. However, he is reborn into the mortal body of a 16-year-old boy. He will use the powers he cultivated in his last life and slaughter his way back into the Realm. The story begins!

Author makes MC seem slightly insane, impatient and whiny. He whines about everything! This could be good but characters in this novel have pretty odd personalities.

As far as ratings go it's probably around 3.5/5. The start of the novel is quite good but the ending is pretty lackluster with ending being very rushed, poorly planned and doesn't give any emotional payoff to the reader.... more>>
Spoiler

Just to give context the MC gains a realm from experts from a higher plane where MC has a small grudge with one of the experts. The story ends before he even meets them. The MC also has a big rivalry with an antagonist that is central to the plot who is usually an ally of convenience and they they lead up to a big fight and then antagonist just backs down without a fight and lets MC win since they think they would lose so there's no point fighting. Probably 1 line version of ending is MC gains godlike powers in the future and will solve all his problems including ones author forgot but he can't be bothered writing it.

[collapse]

One thing that's a big flaw is it never really felt like the MC was ever in any trouble.
Spoiler

He gets a "pet" that can make perfect alchemy dan that can solve every imaginable problem. Problem is it means if he's crippled his pet can make a miracle cure for him and if he's too weak then he can just sell them to take care of all his problems.

[collapse]

It's not author's best novel and while it's OK to read and the beginning was enjoyable the fact that other characters apart from the MC aren't really well fleshed out and that ending is rather abrupt means I wouldn't recommend it unless you're struggling to find something <<less

When MC was reborn in the lower realm, is when the story was at it's best with schemes, comedy, fights & cultivation. But after ascending to the higher realms, the author decided to fast forward everything, especially the cultivation aspect where everyone around him just soared straight to the top without any meaningful development. Skipped the last 30-40 chapters to the end as it became a chore to read with all the contrived romances as well.

Would not read again

Give 4star because the translator give their best to translate this and i'd enjoy the funny moment and laugh toward the end.

The only complain here.. The cultivation system.. The writer keep on changing and it's so confusing.

Realms of the Firmament? Realms of the Fillers is what it should be. Don't read the pile of fillers. It's awfully slow. The MC is a s*upid mix of Jun Moxie from OEM and TTNH. He was shown to be extremely proud, but he suddenly is acting like a wannabe Jun Moxie. Since when did he become an Assassin? No idea.

Another annoying this is Bai Cheng. I will not tell anything about him, cuz thinking about him makes me angry, but whenever you see a "Man in white", just skip... more>> it and you will have a better story. <<less

Start was great and the middle was good but the ending was disappointing, it seemed all rushed well it was but why did author ruined it?

One more problem with author is storytelling it is too much talking or describing even simplest of things. Character would feel something and then goes on rambling his/her inner thoughts that were more like a kids thoughts. 60-70% of the chapter is character explaining what happened or describing with his thoughts which dumbs down everything. Uugh so cringey some thoughts are related to women mostly.

This is the story about ancient top monster, which reincarnated after his death. Protagonist lived more then few millenniums, yet most of the time he is more dense than typical Japanese MC.

Oh and whole world is like that. Example: His father is super OP expert, capable of wiping whole world clean, by himself. Yet somehow, everyone seam of to forgot this fact. MC too. Oh, did I mentioned that this treasured son of GOD is running around ALONE, while top expert stay inside his home? Or even the fact, that... more>> news of his precursor situation should arrive looooonnnnnng ago to his father, only to be IDK? Forgotten?

To sum it up, story have MASSIVE plot holes, at all steps. And is filled with cliche all around. <<less

it's ok. some funny moments, some filler, and sometimes the author forgets between one chapter and the next what his MC's cultivation is and what cultivation realm he's in. romance is.... well, I don't read cultivation novels for their romance.

the harem crap is tolerable (or at least easy to skip) and at least there's no r*pe (so far). I had a hard time suspending my disbelief (more than usual) at some points; i.e. the virg*n cultivation otaku and the virg*n amnesiac somehow knowing exactly what to do and having so... more>> many rounds of "fun" their first night..... good thing she's a cultivator or she'd be suffering from some internal bleeding problems and horrible pain if she were a normal woman.

the powerups get more and more unbelievable as the story progresses so if you have a hard time with his powerups in the first world than don't bother reading more because they get pretty ridiculous, including his first day in the second world.

its an easy read if you don't try to take anything too seriously. as I have a hard time taking anything with harem in the tag seriously it's an all alright story so far. <<less

An interesting start with a flawed but persevering MC who reincarnated after dying.

And then it went from great to "wtf is the author doing with all this nonsense?!"

Pros:

    1. Interesting start and semi-smart MC due to all his experienced in his past life.
    1. MC is kinda funny and his flaws are properly introduced and explained.
Cons:

    1. FILLER CHAPTERS. HOLY f*ck. You'd expect this kind of chapters at around the 300+ chapters where its most likely starting a new arc? Nope, as early as 20s-30s of chapter you'd encounter them. Sure some are great and funny but most are just 10% plot and 90% some sort of rambling that could be explained in a paragraph or so. Example of one filler chapter that really made me mad was just the army chanting some sort of battle song/cry? You'll miss nothing if you skip that chapter at all since the past 2-3 chapters already established and painted what you need to see on what the army is all about.
    1. LONG WINDED DISCUSSION/FIGHTS. Simple things like a negotiation usually takes like 2-3 chapters and at most reach around 5-6 chapters if its filled with the "dao of verbal insults"; but this novels takes it to another level where its normal/short ones takes at least 6 chapters long for simple "I want you to do this so I'll do this for you" and its full of nonsense verbal exchanges where you'll roll your eyes because it seems like nobody f*cking pays attention to what each other says because they keep repeating and repeating.
TL;DR

Its like a great tasting cupcake inside a clamshell packaging. It takes an amount of time to just open not to mention annoying to just eat the cupcake. Wouldn't recommend to read.

A great novel by the author that is witty and funny, I enjoyed reading it. One of the Chinese Webnovels with so many chapters, I always feel that it is unjust to compare them to our standard understanding of a novel and to rate them low. It was written for the Chinese readers and may have things that is weird to the non-Chinese, so I request people to be a little understanding towards the novel and other novels like this.

the only romance that I found interesting are all from that snow clan, especially Bing Er. The story plot is great, but slow. The comedy is there, but due too many redudancy, sometime its hard to get the feel. Above all, I skip a lot, and still found the story interesting in keypoint chapters.

First I want to apologize for possible future errors in grammar or in characters names here, after reading so many MTL my normal English is kind of rusty now, and my memory was never that good. Now, to the review, lol.

Realms in the firmament is an above average novel of its genre, developing some traditional points that the genre explores better than most of its "brothers" and exploring some points that most of them don't really feel the need to approach.

Still, it's unsatisfying, it gave me the impression that the... more>> author "opened" too much plots (or introduced too much characters) and couldn't develop them decently, thus having the need to latter throw to our faces a lot of "because brother/wife X is lucky, here is a miraculous plant/master that transforms him in a top expert of this realm", "wife X loves him forever cause yes", "villain didn't predict this cause MC is suddenly is one of the smartest of the realms".

So yeah, some things a didn't like:
Spoiler

The relationship of MC and the master and disciple that he cures in the lower realm (not Bing'er, Weren Chuchu and Bingxue), is latter poorly developed, the power ups of his brothers and wifes is too forced sometimes, the power ups of the MC is based in the "power of love and friendship" (or we could say he gains enlightenment of ways of life, then he jumps 2 cultivation realms suddenly) and he becomes the strongest of the "beyond the heavens realm" too fast.

The story introduces the 12 spirits and the chaotic beast (the beast inside the egg, the little cat), but they aren't really used well. The cat is a plot device that solves everything, and should be the real MC. The cat makes pills, what besides making the MC strong turns possible for him to have an organization, the cat steals cheat fruits so the MC can use for himself and his friends, the cat controls other beasts cause it has a superior bloodline (or something like that), the cat even eats the final boss, for gods sake I laughed and cried too much at this, lol.

Too lazy to write more here, I still enjoyed the ride, haha.

[collapse]

If the standard ratings here were different I would give this one a 3 of 5, 6 of 10. But it's not bad, I enjoyed it, albeit making you frustrated sometimes it's a good one to pass the time. <<less

One of the funniest stories I've read. The humor might be kinda crude??? but it's funny. Quite a bit of cussing, but it's censored???

The characters are awesome~ The world building is good too.

The harem isn't really obnoxious, so that's nice. The misunderstandings tho...

... more>> The relationships between people are complex and funny, but can be full of angst.

It might be a bit cliched, but it's done in a good way.

MC isn't actually OP yet... he's just got skills and a cheat???

Politics are kinda important, but the MC isn't a complex schemer.

The big baddie is so far untouched by the MC. There's another big baddie for the future too.

Multiple realms.

Spoiler

Heck, MC apparently wasn't THAT strong before he died anyway. Wasn't the top of his realm, and had another couple of realms to go up.

Have high expectations on this one going from Transcending the Nine Heavens. I think it mostly delivers.

Setup's fairly similar to TtNH, reincarnation, overblown power despite actually being in the middle of the middle rank in the past life, supposedly "straight" but somehow ends up extremely cunning in the second reincarnation.

There's a couple of things that you can expect from this author, a large focus on humour (some of which are either crude or painfully forced), a ridiculously large amount of foreshadowing that isn't activated for 100's of chapters, "smart"plot armor... more>> decisions to get past stronger enemies which are always stronger than MC.

Based on what's been translated so far, I think I feel less attachment to this MC because less things happen due to his effort and prior knowledge and more because of the artifact he has access to, in addition, the author downplayed the major conflict of all the translated chapters a bit too much I think, it's difficult to imagine any of the posturing having a long term effect on the MC. I also personally feel the romance in this one is handled slightly awakwardly and forced a lot more compared to TtNH. Speaking of that, the idea of the MC being too chaste is both amusing... and forms the basis of too many jokes that can be considered dumb after it's been pulled for the.... 8th? 9th? time.

That said, overall writing is fairly solid. Not perfect, but I think it fought for and deserves the 4 star rating pretty well. I'd bump to 5, but minor grievances make me hesitate to put 5.

Edit: after allowing the thoughts to sit for a period of time, I now understand why I put a 4 for this novel and a 5 for TtNH, the difference is in the level of planning and the focus of personal power by the MC, this novel focuses about 40-50% on lucky coincidences, and 20% or so on the specific personal powers of the MC. This in my opinion creates a flow "around" the MC that propels him forwards rather than having the MC be the centerpiece of the story. It's still a very good approach, but one that relies a bit on deus ex machina's as opposed to machinations of the MC. <<less

I like the comedic side of the MC in this series. There is foreshadowing in the story that the MC might be able to travel to the world of his previous life and exact his revenge to the ones that killed him. If that is the case, the story will become more interesting.

Update: Forget what I mentioned about the MC, he has turned into a wuss. I am not sure how the MC has regressed, instead of getting stronger, but he has become a complete wuss. It has been happening... more>> little by little, but he became clear in one arc. <<less

Compared to the author's other work, this is by far the worst one. If you've read TTNH or OEM, you'd know instantly.

Spoiler

The most disgusting part about this novel is the amount of animal abuse.

Another thing that makes this novel cringe is the fact that the MC has no real experience with women so all women interactions are s*upid compared to OEM, where it was done better.

[collapse]

also this author really loves armies and assassin

This was absolutely terrible.

The author totally ruined it.

It had a great plot, great characters and a great start but it was narrated in an entirely nonsensical manner.

I'm dropping this.I was utterly disappointed.

Inconsistent translation/editing the first 1/3 of the book, which eventually evens out. Unfortunately, the last ~75 chapters are translated terribly. Seems like someone edited a machine translation with lots of repeat descriptions. At one point the same sentence is repeated 4-5 times in a row. Another decent novel ruined by webnovel's translation.

The story itself is your generic weak to strong story where the protaganist goes from a lower level world to higher level worlds. Very similar beginning to Against the Gods. There are some jumps in logic early on. Tons... more>> of word padding. The author stays at the beggining world for way to long, then all of a sudden pushes the excelerator on all of the character's cultivation. At least he decided to just speed up the story, and not just drop it from being bored. It's an ok read if you're out of better material to read. <<less

There are walls of text that consist of protagonist's thoughts and explanations. Walls and walls. And almost nothing happens.

Sometimes the author wakes up and we have 30-50 chapters of action and plot progress, and that's all, the next will be 100 chapters of internal monologue and explainations. You think "cool, so what's next?" But there is nothing, please wait for 100 chapters. Meh

It feels like the author is trying to learn how to write so the writing is inconsistent. Or maybe the author is not alone.

Coming after Evil Monarch,... more>> it is such a disappointment. <<less
