Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.A great war raged between cultivators a hundred thousand years ago. Immortals fell by the tens of thousands, the path of cultivation itself was severed, and after the dust settled, tombs forested the world.
A hundred thousand years after the last legend faded, Lu Yun, commandant of tomb raiders, descends upon the world. Armed with the Tome of Life and Death, he has some burning questions to answer.
……
“This isn’t how you raid a tomb!” Lu Yun smirked at the cultivators frantically scurrying about the ancient tomb. “Do you want me to teach you?”
……
But ah, can someone teach him how to cure his new body’s erectile dysfunction?

- The fights are bland and boring, and characters introduced for several lines in the previous chapter, tr*shed or killed in the next or same chapter, in just two lines.
It feels like the author has no idea where he's going and the story feels like garbage even if the premise was great. The lack of deepness in the other characters, with lots of face slapping doesn't help either. I'm quite surprised by the rate of this novel (3.8/5) : it feels quite overly rated... The only reason it's worth 1* in my eyes, is because of the novel is still quite well translated (thx wuxiaworld. com), but definitively not worth reading.-
- Cultivation.

- Harem. It's not enjoyable to read something where every important side character is somehow a "jade beauty". There's a supposed reason for it in this novel, but it's just a piss poor excuse so that the author can fulfill his 12 year old fantasies of being surrounded by beautiful women.
- Character development or the lack thereof. The only one who has a semblance of a personality is Qing Han/Yu. Every other character is one dimensional. The envoys of samsara are only good for being guards when the MC is going on a tomb raid--no personality whatsoever. There are a lot of wasted opportunities for the author to make the MC depend on his Envoys of Samsara while at the same time slowly increasing his cultivation. There could've been interactions there that would've really been interesting but sadly, it's just one instant power up after the other.
That being said, I rate this novel 2/5. The excellent translation is a plus, as well as the premise.There is no actual cultivation. MC raids a tomb>Makes jade beauty an envoy>Learns all their skills and experience automatically>Is better than them at it like 5-10 chapters later. MC becomes something like a discount Li Qiye.
1. Organic story telling
- Gone are the many chapters of info dump because the author decided to give us a sneak peak into their worl-dbuilding and plot roadmap instead of actually telling a story lol Here the novel focuses particularly on the characters and the leaders learn about the world and other relevant events and items etc as they become relevant to the characters/story. I.e. Information is organically revealed through the medium of story rather than coming out of left field. Can get a lot more story that way
2. Plot
- This for me matters a lot. The writing can be subpar, but if the story is well plotted and gripping, this can be easily ignored. That's not to say the writing is subpar, it isn't, rather this is the icing on the cake.
Details matter and stay relevant in this story. Plot points connect and at 100 chapters no holes and everything is written with an intention behind it. This makes the story particularly engaging as readers are confident enough in author to make speculations and can try to anticipate events.
3. Pace
This speaks for itself when you start to read and is tied closely with plot. No fillers and at 100 chapters, the number of events would probably have been stretched for several hundred in other novels. The author includes only what is relevant to the story and in doing so can maintain a breakneck pace that keeps readers engrossed.
4. Character development
- Characters are not set on stone. They adapt, they grow and they are shaped by the experiences they've had so far. One of the goals of any good piece of literature, I believe, is to simulate the human experience to a degree while giving something of a commentary on said experience, and o believe character development is the barometer of this. This novel, so far has done a good job of this.
5. Translation quality
- This is probably one of the biggest influences on the quality of a translated novel! It is the difference between savoring the story and enduring the story.
Etvo and the team have done a tremendous job in consistently producing high quality chapters that have made chapters a joy to read, meaning one can focus purely on the story and the characters. I should also mention the work that went into making the setting of Feng Shui understandable to the readers is much appreciated!
