GUYS ITS SOOO GOOD OMG EVERYONE SHOULD READ

in fact, I have never written a review, but when I saw so few comments and ratings, I couldn't resist... musuli's novels are already very good but shangxian is a legend!

The novel is wonderful and exciting. Definitely a impressive novel. There were sad moments but it's okay to cry a little! Please read this, you will never regret it.

... more>> I don't understand why you are confused about the timeline. I think it was quite understandable.

also thanks to wondernovels for the translation, the tl is really good and clear! <<less

In typical Musuli fashion, unwavering and unconditional love transcends time, lifetimes, memories, dimensions, you name it. Fate and destiny, karmic ties, the never ending cycle of what goes around, comes around. Musuli tackles the central theme of karma and its consequences in a mind-boggling web of lies, deceit, misunderstandings and mis-connections, but shows that one instance of kindness can overturn the tides. There is a completed English translation of this novel that can be found on Twitter, though it'll require a proof of purchase (Twitter title is An Immortal's Absence,... more>> Three Centuries Hence).

Initial premise of the novel opens with a Noble man waking up in the body of an imprisoned demon who was once the most powerful fiend of his time. He accidentally awakens the Tianxiu immortal responsible for guarding his confinement. The demon's underlings told him that he and the Tianxiu immortal were previously at odds, with one a powerful, foul demon that ruthlessly kills, and the other an upright immortal responsible for doling out mercy and punishments. However after waking, this immortal seems to treat the MC rather differently, and seems to have his gaze solely on the MC, noticing when the MC is acting off. Yet strangely enough, MC also realizes that he can guess the immortal's next words, have frequent flashbacks of the immortal, and finds that there's a very tender spot in his heart that he's furtively ignoring for this god. Together, they go on a journey with the intention of returning the MC's soul back to his original body. OR so Musuli leads us to believe.

Spoiler

Turns out, the MC starts to realize later that he didn't transmigrate into a demon's body, but that he was actually that demon but lost all of his memories, and a dream bell weaved some fantastical dreams for him during his confinement. He initially evades Tianxiu because he's afraid his identity will be discovered, but later finds it unnecessary because this immortal is carefully attentive and provides MC with a security and protection with his presence alone. As with typical Musuli fashion, MC and ML were entangled prior, in not just one lifetime, but multiple, so fate seems to bring them together regardless if they reincarnated, lost their memories (more than once), and so on so forth.

[collapse]

I won't go into a lot of details, but I was impressed with Musuli's use of foreshadowing and how minute information about an event, a person, or a tale later shows up in other parts of the novel, and how she ties the entire novel together. It's a plot-driven novel with balanced morsels of sweetness between the CP, and the intricacy of the plot is immaculate. Novel can be confusing due to the different timelines, there were lulls in the plot that made reading a bit boring at times, but overall a good read to pass time. Would recommend. <<less

It’s early for a review but ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯

first off translations good, so no worries there.

it’s got a lot of potential and I really like this author so you should give it a try! Mu su li is really good at balancing actual stuff happening in her plots with letting her characters’ personalities shine and making the MC/ML feel like people who like.. actually enjoy each other’s company, though most would never admit to it face to face lol.
As for actually saying something relevant

Another description (ch1-2 spoilers I guess?)

Spoiler

Wu Xingxue finds he's rather suddenly become a legendary demon lord. face to face with the former tenant’s followers and about to escape from a collapsing immortal prison he... has no idea where he is, who he’s supposed to be or how he’s supposed to get out of here without revealing he super definitely doesn’t know how to martial arts. luckily he has a poker face. Oh, and a ‘corpse puppet’ of a ‘dead’ celestial immortal who’s willing to play along, at least for now

too verbose, timelines overlap, sentences keep repeating; these things are annoying. Moreover, every time there is an important incident, it is not explained beforehand what happened, it is a flashback, which makes people lose interest.

Honestly, I don't like the sentiment of forgetting then colonizing the past. I think it's a bit useless, after all it happened anyway. Vain.

Writing this since the main story has completed.

As usual with Mu Su Li’s MC and MLs, they are often mutual pining and there was a lot of pain and separation in the novel. When MC woke up, he seemingly lost his memories but upon meeting ML, you get to see they do have some connections prior which will slowly unveil. There are a lot of twists and turns and even the side characters were full of life. You would also cry for some of them (the side CP ... more>>

MC went through a lot of pain both physically and mentally -

from splitting his spirit from the tree then further splitting it after learning of the calamities arising from him resulting in him being forgotten by everyone for a whole 300 years and was so alone and painful tortured by the grievances from the people he had slain as a god.

Thankfully he met ML again and have him beside him now. ML's love for MC was also very deep and he is one who shows his love with his actions like example just kissing him as he felt like it and was very caring for MC. Even though he was

forced to erase his memories of MC when MC turned into a demon, his subconsciousness still allows him to continue to be drawn towards him and love him.

The only down side about this novel is that the timelines are really confusing. It involves moving across timelines and there’s like a main branch timeline vs multiple side branches timeline. I had to re-read certain parts and confirm with other readers to smoothen out my thoughts. It wasn’t the best of Mu Su Li’s works (granted I had only read GUEE and Panguan), the previous works were better. But nevertheless, I love her language, it’s very beautifully written and the relationship between the CP was quite touching. <<less

Started out strong but kind of went down from there. For the first maybe 1/3 or 1/2, the story really captivated my attention and kept me wanting to know more. I was so curious as to the backstory of the characters, and felt like I was journeying along with them as MC learned more about his past. The characters’ personalities are A+, backstories are maybe slightly over the top, but interesting.

Later, as MC gains more knowledge, the story actually becomes less interesting, and there are too many flashbacks that break... more>> up the plot and distract my attention. A lot of novels have significant flashbacks, but in this case it felt like a lot of details in the flashbacks were not important and were just there to make it longer.

The climax of each arc felt a bit overdramatic, with a lot of monologuing and/or rhetorical questions. Many aspects are trying really hard to be deep, but end up being mostly confusing because the logic isn’t quite there.

I was unsure of the timeline, because “a long time” seems to refer both to like 400 years and 20 years, so for example if the author wrote that x event happened “a long time ago, ” it was hard to place it into the chronological order of events.

Ending was a bit disappointing, to be honest. A lot of things were happening, but it was all wrapped up with just a paragraph or two; I felt a bit cheated. There was also quite a large error in logic:

Spoiler

MC from the alternate universe was wiped from memory/existence, so everything that he had ever caused to happen also never happened, so the entire alternate universe never existed and all the people who died were returned to life. However, back when the actual MC from the real world was wiped from memory/existence, all the worlds/lives he had ended before didn’t all come back, and all the characters who only existed because of him (including ML), didn’t disappear.

Really liked this one! Not as much as I loved Copper Coins, but I absolutely adored the main CP, no betrayal (some misunderstandings) but overall they were undeniably and loyally in love with each other and you can see that through how they interact with each other, even when ... more>>

they couldn't remember each other due to forced amnesia (both when WXY had amnesia of XFX and vice versa)

. They fell in love with each other countless times and my heart was so full of warmth seeing that these two immortal, powerful and incredibly lonely beings finally found something in their seemingly unending monotonous lives, that made their cold hearts thaw.

Beautiful.

The main CP are very reminiscent of Lan Wangji and Wei WuXian - which I loved - given that the cold stoic Xiao Fuxuan silently loves with all of his heart and the mischievous and radiant Wu Xingyue

was once a god and became a demon leader after some tragic events

. Except Xiao Fuxuan talks more than Lan Wangji ahaha

HE, btw. And I LOVED the two little gremlin demons haha, they were so funny.

They only thing I wasn't so happy with was
Spoiler

the ending for Hua Xin and Yunlai, I mean I know that its implied that they found each other again but that was all we got for them. An implication. I thought we may get an extra of them but yeah not much more content for them. I was so invested in their tragic obsession with each other : (
