Description

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

One moment, Luo Jing was at the brink of death after accidentally touching a power outlet while showering. The next, he was in the body of a man named Garen, with memories of a past he was never a part of flowing into his head. As he slowly gets used to the body of Garen, he begins to explore a planet beyond his own logical comprehension. His journey will see him go from surviving in a planet locked in the 20th century, to wielding secret techniques so powerful that they level cities overnight. However, his journey doesn’t end with Garen. Instead this is but the first of many bodies that Luo Jing will come to wield in his mystical journey between worlds.

The first novel I read on Webnovel, and the reason I initially came here was « The Wizard World » by Get Lost, which I really liked although it was not the best novel I enjoyed. So after a few years, I decided to give Mystical Journey, by the the same author, a try as I was attracted by the original setting. So how did it go ?

The setting is quite peculiar here as it is plural. The main character is a transmigrator who travels from one universe to another... more>> (about half a dozen) as the novel moves forward. Each world has its own flavour, nations, factions and power system. Most are in a time period that goes from the late 19th century to the early 21th century, except for two, one which is a futuristic space opera/mecha setting and another which is a european medieval-fantasy setting (with heavy inspiration, I even dare say plagiarism from Dungeons & Dragons, especially Forgotten Realms and Planescape). They are good, but not great, as the regular switching from one world to another (mostly without coming back) makes it hard to grow attached to one setting and truly explore its depth.

The same could be said for most of the characters, as they almost always restricted to a given universe, and are functional, except for a some of them with a few quirks (not always well written). As a result, you have hard time to connect to them, especially as the story goes on, just like the main character. Garen, as a protagonist, is not much of a hero, more an anti-hero. It is driven, careful, observant, but ultimately self-centered, except for the few character he feels indebted to. In fact, as the novel progresses, he grows more and more callous, detached from humanity, and while not sadistic, will casually kill any number of beings (human or others) if it serves his goals. By the way, his goals remain mostly selfish and vague during the whole tale, beside the quest for power and survival (sometimes in the latter parts, even the MC wonders about what makes him carry on, and can’t come with a satisfactory answer). I can sum him up as a cold, intelligent but undriven and unlikeable opportunist.

With such a protagonist, it is hardly surprising that the story starts to grow stale form the mid-point. Each transmigration into a new world is maked by an early period of weakness, then a growth in power according to the rules of the setting, with Garen being primarily motivated by survival and not much else. Even if each world has its own secrets and plot, the cycle ends up being repetitive, and even if there is a multiverse plot centred around an ancient multidimensional civilization whose powers the protagonist tries to make his, it is not exploited as it should. In fact, the feeling of detachement brought by the main character gets so intense in the latter arc that you end up looking at him as a secondary character in the great scheme of thing, a passing journeyman. Add to this an abrupt and frustrating ending, and you’ll feel a bit little you’ve wasted your time.

For the power system, well, each unverse visited has its own, sometimes multiple of them, with characteristics relevant to the world’s plot. Some lessons learned in a given universe can be used in others and there are a number of trans-universal systems, one of them used by the MC and which drives a part of the novel’s plot (that plus him own unique « cheat »). Sadly, as the tale progresses, the systems get less and less grounded.

The translation is average, mostly correct, but sadly with a significant number of typos, mistranslations of homophones, changes of names from one chapter to another... It is still readable, but it can make the experience upsetting. The translator truly has room for improvements.

In conlusion, with a varied but depth lacking setting, barebone character, defective protagonist and sometimes enjoyabe but ultimately repetitive and stale story with a frustrating ending, I can say that this Mystical Journey lead me to nowhere. My final verdict for this very average nove lis a 4 out of 10, a 5 in the translation is ever corrected, and I doubt it will. The Wizard World, also by Get Lost is much better. In any case, I twill be some time before I read another novel of his. Kergonan out.

P.S : thanks to Get Lost for writing this novel. For EndlessFantasy Translation, thank you but you need to improve. <<less

This story is pretty solid, but Character design is very disappointing.

For a transmigration MC, there is almost zero mentality brought to the story. MC is still pretty immature, hot-blooded, and pretty much think that he is the strongest always. So don't get any hope about hidden identity or hidden strength from this immature MC even though the tag include this.

... more>>
Spoiler

MC hide his power for 1 chapter, next one, everyone find out because he leave behind enough trace for them to deduce (plot) so he then began to cause trouble everywhere he go kinda like a show off, and always try to do dangerous place without any plan and after a fail he still didn't learn and do that again.

[collapse]

Side character is 100% genetic, MC being nice to poor girl, the girl then said he confess and she refuse, then she go out with his rich friend, and the so call friend who used to be a nice person turn out to be an arrogant young master who are very possessive. Then MC process to show-off to make the poor girl regret or something, which was so genetic.

friend from beginning who will be forgotten after 50 chapter of them hanging out.

Master who are very nice to him because he was talented, like way too nice as if it was a plot for giving gift for MC.

Now even though the Character design and story related to them are just not connected, the world building so far is very solid. I feel that the Author want to make something that feel new for CN web novel. But he read too much CN that it influence his story as well. I can feel it through the story, because it was to be western style novel, the character mind set is extremely Chinese like nature. And btw there are dojo and gate stuff, it feel very eastern like instead because those stuff are more common in the east, while in west, martial art are very tactical like, because it will only be taught in military school, and not so popular with the masses.

So you should expect a western world where everyone has modern Chinese mindset, and it culture of martial art which is so far are the main theme, but immortal art has been reveal so I predict it to progress that way like genetic CN. <<less

Weak MC. Seems to beat people only when he is one level higher than opponents. Has no ability to jump level to beat opponents. Good concept but s*upid MC ruins the story line.

I'm tired of this shit. The inconsistency of the story make me give up to continue to read this novel.

What I hate the most is when Garen transmigrated to the fifth world, the loser author make him a loser also. Beaten like a dog, chased, bla.. Bla.. Bla..

Less explanation of each world after he left. And the character isn't caring about other. It is pointless if you showed other character love but the MC is so selfish. Hey author, if you read this, then f*ck you! Don't bother to became... more>> an novelist if the story is a tr*sh like this! <<less

This story is so slow. The MC have no direction on what so ever he's doing. Totally deadly boring guy. His 'sister' really disgust me. Doing like a girlfriend behavior really disgust me, it's really f*cking annoying like I want to burn her to hell and be a 'normal sister' do.

So what if the MC want to talk to some girl? His a boy you know, you're not his personal girlfriend! You JUST A SISTER FOR F*CK SAKE!

All in all I don't know what this story really want. Is the... more>> MC really just going to some kind journey? It's that all then what's the point reading this? Well, the tittle say so. He really have no direction... <<less

The book starts out fine in my opinion despite the MC and his nonsense
Spoiler

he has a stat panel and decides to go full strength/vitality and even comments on how his slow movements are holding him back in fights but still refuses to invest in speed or intelligence. And remains this way for pretty much the rest of the book except for one arc where he’s forced into it for a while before going back to normal.

[collapse]

Another thing that fails in this book is the consistency of the MC and the Author

Spoiler

First the MC talks about how he’s going to keep the mammoth technique (forgot its name) due to his attachment to it and passes up a stronger one for it before then going and using another one later without a second thought. In one of the arcs he enters a so called tech universe where people used mechs and other such things and he starts along that path before suddenly being ripped away from it and going strait back to body strengthening and completely ignoring that in the beginning he said that this world restricts powers like that.

[collapse]

I feel that the best parts of this story are the second and fourth arcs as those are the ones that stuck with me throughout most of the book
Spoiler

The MC even mentions how in the third arc he felt like he was just passing through

[collapse]

also at the end of the fourth arc it starts to feel rushed which it is before a sudden curveball that most other readers hate

Spoiler

we’re suddenly introduced to other reincarnators and told that he’s simply one of many and one of the weaker ones at that. Additionally they all have their own reincarnation systems that they use which completely undermines the meaningful image of the motherstream and the MC’s own importance in the story. This is also where I decided to drop this book for the second and final time.

[collapse]

Unrelated:

Spoiler

please note that this is my first review so it’s probably not worded well/doesn’t flow right

I've read a lot of novels in the past few years, both chinese and korean, and this one has probably disappointed me the most. The storyline is something that always excites me, with concepts like warlocks, bloodlines, martial arts, etc. Believe me when I say I really wanted to like this novel. It's a decently unique concept, with multiple arcs consisted of the MC traveling from world to world after becoming the strongest through various means. The first two arcs are bearable, ok at best, with traditional concepts of martial... more>> arts and strengthening through the MC's accumulated knowledge and skills.

However, the third arc makes this novel completely unreadable. I began losing interest at the very beginning, and it just got worse and worse as it went on. Unlike most novels, the MC in this third arc is complete tr*sh. He's useless, is thrashed around by everyone he meets, and everytime he gets a little bit stronger, completely regresses and loses again and again. I'm not even sure if I remember the MC winning a battle at all. While the first few hundred chapters are alright, barely readable, you'll find yourself grimacing in pain to read from 800+. If you enjoy watching a character with little development get beaten over and over without winning, repeatedly set back, with an uninteresting concept alongside, even then, proceed with caution. <<less

It's just bad if you were like me, expecting something more than a half assed shounen, complete with ecchi scenes, power ups and seeing strength levels in numbers.

Pro

    • MC isn't a psycho (yet?).
    • The world seemed interesting at first.
Con

    • MC is very s*upid, and he doesn't get better as he never actually cares about leveling up his intelligence. Instead it's all about strength. I guess it makes sense since author doesn't seem to want to put the effort in writing clever characters.
    • Nonsensical power hungry MC while he just transmigrated to this new world. That doesn't make any sense. Well it would if it was a game, and not an actual real world. He doesn't even have a goal to going back to his previous world, no he wants to become strong just because.
    • It's obvious author adds things up as the story advances, and never properly bothered to create the setting. One paragraph the world is normal without any super powers, the next it's common sense to have ki and train hidden skills in dojos. One paragraph the setting is pre-WW2 technologically, the next the whole world was never explored with a whole continent unexplored. One sentence the MC is a loner, the next he has friends... This is ridiculous.
    • MC is an adult originally, yet acts like a teen. Just write about a teen transmigrating instead... why bother with an adult?
    • Why even bother with transmigration? It's never used from what I'm seeing. MC for all intents and purposes is a native, and his background as a transmigrator doesn't matter at all.
