Decent speed read if you have nothing better to do.
Basically a poorer xianxia version of "Rebirth of the Thief Who Roamed the World" (2010) . With all the identical faults that other novel had and more. World building is pretty confusing and illogical. Chapters and chapters of pointless face-smacking. PREMISE
MC Gu Qing Shan gets a second chance to time-travel to the past and save humanity against the invasion of dimensional traveling demonic races. He has to use his newfound god-level cheat skills to help a parallel xianxia world as the last dimensional bastion against the demonic race, while simultaneously defending his own dimension. COMMENTS (1) Odd / poor world building
MC is from a technologically advanced dimension. Humans experience a constant dimensional shift (author's version of VRMMORPG) that allows them to access a parallel xianxia world. They have to work with xianxia cultivators to fight against a demonic race... else once xianxia world falls, the flood gates will open to MC's own dimension. Note that demons are already able to make "minor" incursions into MC's current dimension. -- The shift between the sci-fi and xianxia dimensions is really odd. No use of a "NerveGear", nada, just a random system prompt that happens to everyone. And yet somehow humanity just accepts all of this as a "virtual game" until the government tells them later that it isn't a game.
No discussion about who were the higher powers that gave these powers to humanity (as of Chap 110). People just accept it. -- The time dilation doesn't make any sense. Xianxia world is much faster where 1 day xianxia = 1 hr sci-fi.... going one way. But you can only enter xianxia world after 1 day in sci-fi world, and no time dilation happens. i.e. 1 day sci-fi = 0 hr xianxia. Yup, I bet I just broke your mind there. -- Modern tech is virtually useless against demons, only xianxia powers work. WEIRD.
All humans can bring back inventory/skills/powers from the xianxia world to sci-fi world and strengthen themselves against demonic incursions. But nobody ever mentions bringing advanced technology to the xianxia world. So what's the point of having a sci-fi world? Why bother writing about modern tech, spaceships, mecha, or random sci-fi jargon thrown around in the first 30 chapters??!
Did nobody think that modern tech has at least several supportive functions that might help? Communication tools? Satellites to chart maps and detect troop movements? A giant demon could smack down a flying communication talisman, but I'm pretty sure it can't block radiowaves? Heck they were even talking about how easy it was to stop enemy communication by SHOOTING DOWN A MESSENGER BIRD! -- In one chapter we have mechs and spaceships flying around with pointless infighting amongst humans in MC's dimension, and the difference comes down to minute technological superiority.
In the next chapter we have Saint level human completely destroying half a dozen other Saint level demons with a wave of her hand. The dichotomy between science and xianxia is ridiculous and poorly balanced. There are tons of other novels out there that have written about different dimensions co-existing (sci-fi vs mystical) and powers/levels that balanced. Best example is "The Ultimate Evolution", where different movie worlds had completely different systems (scifi, magic, mystic, etc) but the character stats worked out well.
There are also popular strategy games with this kind of background (Starcraft's Terrans/Zerg/Protoss, Endless Legend's 14 different factions with their own unique powers, etc). And yet the author can't balance 3 different factions (2 humans 1 demonic). (2) Broken system mechanics
-- There are 4 basic classes with normal skills and growth skills, generally from levels 1-5, with growth skills supposedly being super amazing because they can break that limit. There is one class called "God's Chosen" that has random powers... makes no sense. That's not even a class anymore, that's a CLASSLESS category. -- There are also cultivation levels that follow typical xianxia conventions (Qi Training - Formation - Golden Dan - Ascension.... you know the drill). And there are sublevels 1-7 or whatever for each level. But somehow it's easy to leap across entire realms and kill someone higher leveled. MC just straight up goes Rambo OP at the beginning, and starts killing monsters way past his level (Qi Training killing Golden Dan). Huh?? -- MC's cheat skill is confusing and breaks the dynamics of the story.
He gains the abilities of the previous user of whatever weapon he pick up. Then MC proceeds to kill demons in entirely different realms ALL THE TIME (Qi Training sniping Golden Dan). That's a... 10-20 level difference? Huh? MC was an OP super-skilled swordsman in his past life. What's the point of becoming Legolas (bow) or a weapon master now? How does being an all-round expert fit into the greater narrative of saving humanity? This selfish power just makes ALL side characters completely irrelevant since MC can do anything/everything.
There's no I in TEAM. There's just Gu Qing Shan. Utterly s*upid setup. (3) Weak harem / cast of characters Not sure what's the point of building a harem of beautiful women around the MC when he hardly pursues any love interest. That's just a pointless tease and distraction. Which is unfortunate because several of these female leads (the princess, his master, etc) actually have decent origin stories and personalities. And as mentioned above, the entire cast is weakened because of MC's pointless superpower. Other reviewers have noted that the novel supposedly gets better after a couple of hundred chapters, but I doubt any reader is willing to wait that long if it started out that bad in the beginning. I'm not sure how the world building and structural problems mentioned before can actually be retconned/fixed. If I'm mistaken, please send me a message. I'll edit my review if needed. I'm guessing the pointless face-smacking and snobby Chinese nobility will disappear at least.

- Starts off as a apocalypse real live game where the MC is in an apocalypse but also has game like stats. He can kill demons to get stronger and improve his stats with experience.
- Then it actually transitions to where he can switch between the apocalypse live game and the real world but the real world is in the past, so he becomes this peudo-Jesus where he knows knowledge that shouldn't exist and acts high and mighty about it.
- The real world is a hyper sci-fi version of earth with crazy tech and different political structure. So it gets really confusing when the author starts throwing a lot of sci-fi elements into the story like mechs, space travel, super AIs.
- Then the apocalypse real live game transforms randomly into a xianxia cultivation where the MC joins a sect. Then you go through the normal ups and downs of sect life you'd read so many times before in actual xianxia novels.
In the middle of all this, you have mentally challenged young masters and noble clans trying to kill the MC. Also have princesses of those clans falling in love with the MC for no good reason.-
- high-tech sci-fi
- fantasy with demons and whatnot
- cultivation
- a system
- devastating beauties getting involved with the MC
- nobles and their noble bullsh*t you see in all these novels
- lots more stuff that's spoiler territory so I can't mention it
It really is a giant soup made out of a whole load of genres. There's enough novelty to keep you reading, but it's nothing amazing so far (chapter 23). It does, however, lay it on thick at times, so don't go expecting some genre busting work of art that will blow your mind; It's just a fun story. As for whether or not it turns to crap in 100-200 chapters like 99% of all the other stories? Can't say. But you should expect CN/LN tropes, so don't get disappointed when the same old, tired tropes rear their ugly heads. Just roll with the punches.
