Average village boy joins a sect, embarking on the path of cultivation. Pros:
- Decent translation. Regular updates. Cons:
- Slow paced. I found the first 100 chapters (volume 1) to be mind numbingly boring; in the middle of the first big fight (50 chapters in) I was so turned off I dropped it for a month before I was able to pick it up again. Not being able to write an entertaining fight in a martial arts story was a red flag to me. The only upsides were the interactions he had with that one friend and his experiments with his cheat item. Got slightly better in volume 2 when he gets into the cultivator world. Writing style is still long-winded though, there's a lot of fat that could be cut.
- Dull world building; as generic as they come. Tropes: monsters are almost extinct in the world, magic professions have a horrifically low success rate, everyone is poor, everyone is out to get the MC, loner MC, side character deficiency syndrome. I personally prefer adventuring/monster hunting RPG shenanigans in my fantasy novels over the constant comeuppance over the never-ending tide of forgettable side characters that disrespect/scheme against the MC that's common these days. Recommendation:
I found it rather boring, there wasn't a hook that drew me into the story and I'm not really attached to the world or any of the characters. +1 star for lots of content I guess.
1) The world-building is phenomenal 2) The world's ancient China influence makes the world have depth with an air of mystique - it feels like there's a real immortal history backing the world. It has that author's "vision" which underlies a good book - a world which feels tangible 3) It's serious - none of this transmigrated from earth garbage which is an immediate red-flag for me 4) The translation is impeccable, with plenty of variety and detail to the language. It reads like a decent English language book would 5) The MC typically doesn't: borrow power, rely on gimmicks or those stronger than him 6) Very immersive 7) The MC is resource-conscious, calculating and aware. Not some idiot who constantly jeopardizes his own safety against an enemy who could kill him instantly, for no apparent reason other than to advance the plot 8) The world feels considered and balanced (insofar as possible for a novel of this nature) Subjective/possible negatives:
1) The MC is quite the lone-wolf typically 2) MC relies a lot on artifacts (some of which self-created) It is a little bit long-winded and repetitive at times (and I can imagine that many people would think this particularly if their English isn't very good or they're young), however, in my opinion a lot more novels need to emulate what this novel does right.
- The beginning is great for those who like a slow story with acceptable progression. The world building is great.
- The story isn't about some super talented super handsome genius.
- After a couple of hundred chapters, it loses its direction and turns into a catch'em all fiasco where the MC goes on dozens of treasure hunts, always getting the treasures, while supposedly being unlucky. After 1200 chapters, I can tell you that the author basically ignores everything for the sake of treasure hunting, wasting a hundred chapters at a time for one treasure hunt or another. Of course eventually, the MC has so many treasures that he doesn't use them all. When the author starts realizing that the story's progress has stalled, he does one of the most common dumb things an author can do, which happens often in Chinese Xianxia, he repeatedly presses the skip-skip-skip button. So instead of us getting a decent story about a cultivator's struggle to take a step forward. We end up with Treasure Hunt-Skip-Treasure Hunt-Skip-Treasure hunt, and eventually a super skip that takes the significance out of an important part of his and the story's progression.
- The Author is h**ny af, but he'd wanted to make his MC a lonewolf, so in the beginning it's limited to jade beauties everywhere, and some mol*sting here and there. While in the real world, extreme beauties are maybe 1 in a 100. In this stories, regular looking women are 1 in a hundred. Eventually, the author starts succumbing to his horniness and all the women start falling for the MC. Though he doesn't legit start a harem as far as I have read.
- The author is too lazy to write MC relationships, whether they're male or female. Whenever he makes male friends or becomes part of a faction. He disappears those people or relationships somehow, and eventually it becomes obvious that he's not doing it for plot or character purposes. He just doesn't want to write it.
- MC gives women preferential treatment on many occasions to his detriment, even though he's supposed to be a very goal-oriented person, again, author's h**ny.
- The repetitiveness of his treasure hunts gets extremely boring eventually. I'm practically skipping over those chapters these days.
I'm saddened, because this had potential, but as always, Chinese novels just disappoint. Chinese xianxia authors seem to lack the capability to write a believable and coherent plot. Read at your own peril.losing power over and over again
