This novel is quite decent. Besides the most overpower MC starter package I have ever seen, Everything else about the novel is quite good. The MC is very hardworking and reasonable. He does not spend his time doing unrelated **** and always actively find a way to improve. The background characters are quite reasonable. Not everyone wanted to kill him and not everyone he fights with bear a grudge and people respected him when he strong. If you want a decent novel with very little bad cliques, hardworking MC, decent plots, and fast-paced action, this novel is for you.
Hey there! Good day for writing! If you wanted to see whether you can get paid by distributing the current work or getting financial support by writing new work, you might want to contact geekyteddyyo@gmail.com. A brief introduction, some sample chapters or links will be appreciated when reaching out.
If you ignore the obvious logical fallacies every few chapters because the book wasn't preplanned in the slightest (for example: it took like 15 chapters after breakthrough to reveal what True Element mc cultivated. Until then it was just described as True Element) Then it is a good read when you want to turn your brain off and read how a guy pubstomps noobs then this is for you. Idea 8/10, execution 4/10.
Honestly, I was hoping for more from this story. I generally enjoy the cliche of a weakling getting a cheat and becoming powerful. But this story is just mediocre as of chapter 60. Maybe it gets better later on, but I haven’t looked at any reviews from other people, so I don’t know. The translation / editing quality seems to be excellent (very few or no English grammar or spelling mistakes). I can’t speak to the translation accuracy, but the story flows and is coherent. 5/5. The story itself, however, is just meh. The pacing feels rushed. The elders have the same cultivation strength as some inner disciples. Etc etc. 2.5/5. Overall, 3.5/5. It is readable and can help pass the time, but there are tons of other web novels that are more enjoyable to me, so I won’t be voting for this one.
I read all the 60 Pre-Released chapters and liked it very much. So I thought why not read it in MTL. And this is my review after completing the novel. This novel has about 1000 chapters out of which I only read about 600 chapters in detail then I just scrolled the Table Of Contents and read the chapters according to the Chapter Title (for various reasons). So although I know the Basic Summary but I don't know in detail what happened between Chapter 600-1000. Now lets discuss about the World Structure, Cultivation Realms, Power Structure. World Structure & Power Structure :- (P.S: I don't know much detail about Power structure because Main Sects appear after Chapter 600) 1. Spirit Continent/Realm (Same Ancient Land where Dragon Emperor asked Lin Han to go for Revenge) This is the main continent of the world in which the story takes place. 3000 years ago after Ice God colluding with Old Man of Time & Space killed Dragon Emperor(secretly), Ancient Dragon Dynasty became chaotic because of mysterious disappearance of Dragon Emperor. Then Ice God came to quell the unrest and after killing many she established her own dynasty which rules the continent, Frost Divine Dynasty. The Continent is divided into five parts namely Eastern, Western, Southern, Northern, Central. 2. Lingwu Continent/Domain/Island (MC's Continent) There are countless islands floating in the endless sea around Spirit Continent. They are called Domains. Lingwu Domain is just one of the domain out of countless others. It falls under the control of Shenwu Qianzhuang, which is a major power of Eastern Wasteland (one of the five sectors of Spirit Realm). There are many Shenwu Academies (branch of Shenwu Qianzhuang) on the Domain through which qualified disciples can go to Shenwu Qianzhuang. Just like Spirit Realm, Lingwu Domain is also divided into 5 sectors, Eastern, Western, Southern, Northern & Central. 3. Southern Sector of Lingwu Domain (MC's Sector) The Southern Region has 17 states, and Xuezhou is the smallest of the 17 states. 4. Xuezhou State (MC's State) There are hundreds of millions of territories in the State, and the Dajin Empire is located in the center of Xuezhou. 5. Dajin Empire (MC's Empire) The most powerful overlord power in the Empire are called "One Sect, Two Palaces, and Three Halls" by the world. "One Sect" refers to Qiankun Jianzong(MC joins this sect). "Two Palaces" refers to the Divine Phoenix Heaven Palace(Lin Ruyan's Mother is from this place) and the Nine Nether Magic Palace. "Three Halls" refers to the Hall of Lord Zun, the Hall of Warlords and the Hall of Corpse Yan. Dajin Empire controls many territories one of which is Yan Kingdom and Tianhou Kingdom/Empire. 6. Tianhou Kingdom/Empire(MC joins a sect in here according to his master's wish) Most Powerful one is The Royal Family. Except for The Royal Family there are 4 other sects. 4 ancestors of these sect has to fight together to be on equal ground with The Emperor. The sects are Tian Jianmen (MC's sect), Iron Sect, Tianqin Valley(It's Valley Master is Lin Ruyan's Father), True Demon Sect. 7. Yan Kingdom (MC's Kingdom) It's the Kingdom from where MC is. In this kingdom Chiyang King(MC's Master) is the most powerful man even more powerful than The Emperor. MC is from the southern most border village named Changyun Village's Lin Family which is a branch of Broken Sky City Lin Family. Cultivation Base:- (P.S: I don't know cultivation base mentioned after chapter 600) 1) Martial Realm 1.1) 9 sub-realms (each divided into Initial, Intermediate, Late, Peak) 2) True Martial Realm 2.1) 2 sub-realms namely Earth & Sky (each divided into Initial, Intermediate, Late, Peak) 3) Spiritual Martial Realm 3.1) 3 sub-realms namely Spiritual Realm, Spiritual Wheel Realm, Soul Realm 3.2) Sub-realms are further divided into 9 realms 4) Dongtian Realm(9 sub-realms) 5) Supernatural / Magical Realm 5.1) 4 sub-realms namely Linghai, Jingu, Sixiang, Hualong 5.2) Sub-realms are further divided into 9 heavens 6) *Holy Realm (Yin-Yang Holy Realm, Nirvana Holy Realm) Till chapter 600 MC didn't even touch this realm so I don't know much about this realm and after it. Now let's talk about Plot development. 1. MC was a trash who was stuck at 1st Heaven of Martial Realm for One Whole Year but after getting Art of Ancient Dragon Emperor, he was able to brakethrough Dongtian Realm within 2.5 Years. Remember, MC didn't inherit Dragon Emperor's Memory or Experience. He only got a Dragon Soul(which increased his Soul cultivation & comprehension talent) and a Cultivation Art. So MC's cultivation talent is still trash. 2. No Bottleneck Exist for MC. As long as there is enough Spirit Stones MC can breakthrough Continuously. No need to care about Solid Foundation. Withing 9 months, MC brokethrough True Martial Earth Realm(newly advanced) to Spiritual Wheel Realm(got into Rank 76 of Top 100). 3. Nothing Challenging. MC can fight above his level and most villains are within his fighting range. And those scare ones who aren't, they can't attack MC due to various reasons. And when they finally attack, they are way below MC's Combat Power. 4. There will be few times when you will think that the complete scenario is very forced. 5. He finally sleeps with Lin Ruyan in Chapter 324 but tells her that He will marry her after reaching Peak of Martial Arts. As for other Females, MC has no romance with them(until chapter 600. after that I don't know). 6. Finally the Shitty Finale. You Can be the judge of that. Just read these two with Google Translate. CH 998 :- https://***.uukanshu.com/b/68245/90594.html (This is The Chapter Previous to Finale) Finale:- https://***.uukanshu.com/b/68245/91407.html After reading these two you will understand that YOU SHOULD NOT PUT THIS NOVEL ON YOUR LONG TERM READING LIST. Thank You.
