- MC's character development. As the story progresses, MC grows from a mature-yet-naive young master to a level-headed pioneer. MC's ambiguous moral compass is something I find rather interesting as he does very evil things but ironically sets a (very low) bottom line to his actions to rein himself.
- No excessive plot armor which makes it rather refreshing. MC does not always win his fights and in a lot of fights, he had to rely on his wits to survive.
- Romance. Contrary to what some reviewers mentioned, the romance and size of harem is actually adequate. I seriously think that adding more members into the harem (there were 2 strong candidates and a few others) would probably do more damage to the novel as the author would then need to add more backstory and character development for the harem members. The author was already struggling to keep the harem members relevant.
- MC's cultivation path. Probably the first novel, if not one of the very few, where the MC had to do extensive research to build his cultivation path and advance in cultivation.
- Realistic portrayal of society. You won't see nobles getting overturned overnight and peasants pointing magical pitchforks towards the nobility en masse. Political sophistry and schemes were often the answer to navigate around the noble-dominated society.
What I don't like:- Some really interesting characters eventually faded out of the story.
Spoiler
[collapse]
- Treatment of cultivation stages. Like other novels, the majority of the cultivation levels have stages but the stages later on become nearly irrelevant
- Awkward final arc and ending
P.S. You guys should really stop blindly giving likes to 2-3 star reviews that make little sense. For example, a reviewer was barely able to string a sentence and asked questions which were laid out in the open in the novel. Another example would be a reviewer who whined about why author decided to elaborate why MC was not killed or lost and also whined about how the story 'went south' because MC's romantic decisions (kinda funny how he knew all about the romance parts 400+ chapters into the novel).Basically 90% of his friends and even his besties like Wang Doushan
the r*pe thing.
I get implanting a memory is technically better than raping the guy but it's still a messed up thing to do and having the character justify it just made it seem worse to me. I wouldn't mind a hand wavy thing that explains this away instead of describing him getting broken down mentally. This just made it not a fun read for me.
The blindness is temporary, it last for like maybe 15 chapters, tho he hides his recovery from most people till about the end of the first book.
-
- MC with a moral compass so gray that you sometimes find yourselve rooting for the "enemy" and questioning whether the MC is a good person or a psychopath.
Bad-
- Harem Personality Disorder. I like a harem as much as the next guy, but this novel suffers from the same problem many other novels in the genre suffer from, the females seem to loose their personality once they join the harem, they become idiots who's are only present to be amazed by the MC's actions or to serve as the MC's motivation to move the plot forward. Any trace they previously had of being an interesting character seems to be lost along with their v**ginity.
EDIT:The MC has become too OP, he used to be an underdog who used his smarts to strategically beat his enemies or find the best possible outcome in a tight situation on the fly. Now the MC has a stick that tells him the future, which he abuses, so instead of thinking of a solution he asks the stick, and the few times when he still thinks of a solution himself it is expressed retroactively, like everything bad that happens turns out that it was part of his plan all along somehow, but there is no build up for it, it just one size fits all explanation. On top of that his power is super high right now too, so the MC has become infallible in every aspect and it makes him a less interesting character. I'm hoping it improves, or i'll have to come back to remove a star. EDIT 2: It is a slow but steady decline towards the end and I didn't really like the ending.
- MC is a clever schemer, and eventually a mad scientist. He's not a brute force, against all odds kind of MC... until later in the series, where he clearly becomes that while still being a mad scientist.
- Morally grey, sometimes morally dark grey MC who still possesses quite a bit of good and humanity, but strictly expresses it towards only humanity. Everything that isn't human is fair game to exploit.
- World building is done very well. It frequently addresses the nobles vs commoners aspect, substantiates it and also directly addresses how difficult of a problem it is to solve.
- Cultivation elements aren't too complex, one could even say that they're a secondary focus of the MC.
- The side characters can be quite charming sometimes, until later in the series where they fade away.
Cons:- The MC eventually becomes too good at everything. He's still the schemer and mad scientist, but the impact of such is greatly lessened by the fact that he's also insanely strong at every cultivation level he achieves, is still the smartest scientist in the world and can reverse engineer tons of techniques that others simply can't do, has tons of invaluable and unique treasures get schemed into his hands, etc. He just gets to the point where it's hard to feel any modicum of tension anymore.
- The romance and harem is poorly done, as expected. He spends the first half of the story a strictly one woman man but this woman is hardly part of his life for very large spans of time. He then has another become too attached and they tie the knot by COMPLETE INCIDENCE (seriously, they got pushed over the line from frenemies to lovers by a complete accident), so now he has to take responsibility and expand his roots, etc blah blah you know the deal guys, can't really expect much from a CN harem. Or harems in general.
- His friends fade away. Another unfortunate problem with cultivation novels is how a lot of side characters just get left behind or slowly disappear into nothingness, and this is no different. Expected, but disappointing.
Overall, it's decent. Solid 3... more>>- Quality writing - interesting introduction, fleshed out world, fractions with different cultures, etc.;
- MC that has a brain and acts reasonably;
- MC has a goal, a pursiut if you will, that starts from childish interest, moves throuth serious moral and political pondering, to lifelong goal;
- Interesting cultivation and fractional distinction.
Now some negatives:- Translator translates some names litaraly and it is a negative for me;
- The story is going where I absolutely didn't want it to go- MC will have to visit all 4 other races. The author clearly has more potential than that, but I guess everyone gets lazy at some point.
- Secondary character developement is throun out the window. After pondering I can't think of a character that has changed at all except the MC. After ZTJ I have higher bar for those characters to pass, so I can't leave that out.
Overall - highly reccomended.
