Legend_of_Genesis
For those who want to read this webnovel. I suggest that you read this first. Let me give you a few heads up. I'll list the pros and cons that you may see. Let's start with the cons Cons: 1) The prologue is several chapters long so it may test the patience of some people who reads this. 2) My writing style focuses on a lot of action in the fights. So you might encounter some detailed description of the fights that you wont understand unless you picture it with your mind. 3) I like establishing emotional impact of the characters and relation to the readers. So, you might find some lengthy emotional dialogue going on most of the time. 4) I might have some typographical errors here and there but I try to fix it as much as I can. (I don't have an editor after all) 5) I'm not sure if there are but I'm not omniscient so I can't say for sure. There might be some plot holes that sharp readers could cite but I would generally covered most of it. 6) When I introduce 'important' characters that would contribute to the plot, they generally have some sad backstory (varying degrees of sadness thought) . They would also have some character development that would feature them for long span of word count so if you are a ******** badass MC lover. This story may not be for you. 7. There maybe a wide array of characters as the story develops so it might be a bit difficult to remember who is who if you forget their names and characteristics. But, of course, I'll introduce them gradually. Pros: 1) This story is not a one-man show so hurray for those who are bored of MC single-handedly fighting the opponents. 2) The cultivation of this world does not follow the general rules of cultivation known. I designed my cultivation system to be a little bit more realistic (ish) so that characters won't just one-hit other characters due to being one or two levels higher. My perspective of cultivation is not simply level up and become stronger then slaughter . I also want to advocate the application of Innate Energy in battle and the use of strategy and wit during battle. Innate Energy can be likened to Chakra in Naruto or Ki in DBZ. It is not inexhaustible so it is better to utilize throug different techniques that will help a cultivator get stronger. So, for example, carelessly using it in a group battle or war, may result to energy depletion and eventual demise. Thus, martial arts will be often used to accompany the characters to preserve their strength in such events. 3) As I said earlier, I will include many characters in the story and I would try to give all of them different personalities to give birth to indivualties in characters through backstories! 4) There will be less flat character like young masters or evil crooks that have zero IQ. Villains will be much more cunning and devious so that the plot doesn't get too boring or repetitive. 5) MC is not perfect though he has went through so much and even reincarnation. He is a person and is also prone to mistakes. The same goes for other characters. ( Not sure if this is a pro or con though XD) 6) There will be a lot of action filled battles and mind blowing savage moments HAHA. There will also be many variables of mystery and the unknown. 7 ) There will be many waifus here. Bwahahaha! That's all I can think of right now. If i do find more, I will include it for another time. Cheers! Thank you for reading my novel!
This story is presented in a very detailed manner. The dialogue is not awkward and the story flows smoothly. Just from the style of writing, info dumps are done in a way that it doesn't overload the reader. The protagonist is smart, aloof and ruthless which is sort of a stereotype but is still delivered rather freshly. The only flaw I could see is the slow update. But judging from other aspects, this story has great potential!
This story takes a different approach from his previous version of the book. I originally just came here to know the difference of the current version and the past. But what I witnessed was the evolution of the author's writing style. His previous writing style was very MC based and all of the developments of the story revolved around him. This made his MC shine all through and the side characters become slightly bland in comparison. However, now, he seemed to have changed his perspective. He put more emphasis in emotion and the character development of the secondary characters and even the mob characters. They become more likeable and more vital to the story. The story has also featured more action that makes the story more exciting and entertaining. More characters are also being introduced which gives me the idea that the story will become more interactive The background of the MC has become more detailed and more logical which is contrast to the rushed backstory of the prologue. Just based on the current storyline, I can tell that the story will not be solely centered on the protagonists but also to the antagonist like how the author took the time to even craft Dale's backstory which made his character have more depth. I have great expectations for this story now. So, right now, I'm rating based on the potential. But I'll also be rating it in the future if it lived up to my expectations or not! Overall, I recommend this story for a read!
