9/10 I find this to be amongst the most well written novels in the genre. First of all is the characters; the protagonist "A-Qing" has actual character development and a very real path that one would follow if thrown into another world without any knowledge of it.

she literally lives like a rat, only surviving because she's immune to poison and can eat rotten food, hence the reason she eats like somebody who hasn't seen food (she literally hasn't, not until she had some actual skills or standing). Another notable thing is how she is completely chaotic and quick to anger, and I Personally find this reasonable as she is literally the incarnation of a killing star (currently re-reading and don't remember everything) and is heavily influenced by it and would have been driven insane by it long ago, if not for her build: aka the Yue maiden arts paired with the killing star, and many more later on.

A reason I personally find she's quick to fights and impulsive is because she doesn't have any support systems whatsoever until she joins a sect and finds friends. It's almost like she's lashing out at the world that treated her like dirt until then.

second and third: the side characters are actually recognizable and the world building is solid and since it's told from Qing POV, everything is laced with her own perspective and knowledge, or lack there of. I won't say too much as it doesn't drift too far from the usual murim novels. Not that it's a bad thing.

Fourth, is the translation. As with everything in genisis, it is high quality, highly readable and just a good translation. Like others mentioned, they paywall chapters, but how do you expect a translation site of this quality to run on ads alone? I would much prefer to wait a few months and binge a very well done translation

and lastly, is the racism, I leave this last because I can personally write it off as the actually in world character being a racist, the author isn't subtle, doesn't try to hide, or throw Jabs. The character is reincarnated from Korea and hates pretty much all other countries. It is very clear, unlike a lot of writers where it kind of pops out of nowhere, as if the government looked over the manuscript and scribbled them down before shipping it off. I can personally look past it, however it is very present throughout. Do not read if you are sensitive/triggered by any form of racism.
