Are you suffering from nonsensically, overpowered MCs? The world-building of a 7 year old's sand castle? A plot that repeats itself like a broken recorder? Translation work requiring you to learn a new language? Rest assured, you have made it. Monarch of Evernight is a real gem. If Brandon Sanderson decided to do a similar take, I would think it'd be something similar. It's like Mistborn and the Stormlight Archives combined together, but with cultivation. The plot is extremely deep, I'm simply shocked how seamless things click together. Early chapters suddenly become relevant, and get tied into the story much later. The amount of political intrigue and undercurrent is fascinating. Side characters are really fleshed out and multi dimensional. Translation by Legion is simply wonderful, I'm really glad he picked this up from Alyschu. The grammar, structuring, speed, pacing is all there. Also, a huge fan of the chapter image teasers!
No matter how good all the parts that come together to make a story were, if I were to slog through terrible wording, butchered grammar, or straight up MTL, I'd probably bounce off after few chapters at best. The setting is rather... uncommon. I mean steampunk-ish Xianxia-ish story taking place on floating continents?
And the cover art was even more promising! (the one on WW, the one here is nice, but it lacks that "something", dunno)
And the flintlock designs kinda interested me.
Though to be honest, the machine guns, trucks, motorcycles, grenades and the rest of unmistakably modern things... kinda disrupted the pretty picture I had in my mind. I could live through it. I honestly have no idea how to picture them anymore... Their descriptions had that Steampunk feel to them... but then again: the longer into the story, the more modern it feels. The Cultivation part is indeed a bit uhh... weird, the "skills" feel kinda umm... pulled out of the ass, so to speak, they kinda appeared without a rhyme or reason, just do that MC could get a boon for levelling up.
At least to me they felt kinda random "He just picked +10% to Firearms Damage on his last milestone level" ← while it is not explicitly worded that way, it felt like that to me.
Besides that, the cultivation is rather toned down, it took quite a few chapters for profound cultivation techniques to pop up, and it's not like everybody and their dogs have profoundly profound arts and techniques. Well, they do appear, but they aren't EVERYWHERE or, at least, characters don't have dozens of them each, all equally deeply profound and exquisite.
I did mention it to be Xianxia, and yes, Deeply Profound Cultivation Techniques do appear... but they don't feel so commonplace for everyone and their dog to have a bunch of them, but then again, it isn't straight xianxia. As for the plot, I'm no grand prose critic, only thing I can say is I ENJOY IT. The characters? Well... some are likeable, other not so much,
and some have better plot armour than some protagonists...coughBaicoughKongzhaocough.While I sometimes forget the names, I'd say that they all (besides the random mooks that die, or those that exist only to stand in the background (or die)) are quite distinct and I never had a moment like: "which one of the bunch is being mentioned now, because unless they explicitly mention the name, it's impossible to know". On a side note, I find criticising the protagonist for being a wussy and the like... somewhat umm... weird.
I'm certain all those tags are completely mistaken, and the MC doesn't change at all by growing up in a special training facility, where they mould kids into elite soldiers. and for whole 500 chapters has completely no change.
All in all it is a solid novel, worthy of at least giving it a shot (by that I mean reading more than 6 chapters before making any judgement based on say, the character of the MC when he still is a kid).
Sure, it might not suit your tastes, but it is a good novel nonetheless.
