***Review after reading through half the novel*** So here’s another one. In simple words, it’s alright. There isn’t anything great. MC for most of the novel isn’t anything great. I mean yes, he’s strong and leapfrogs during fights, but there is nothing captivating as such. He’s an alchemist. Unlike other alchemists, he’s an all-rounder. But also like other alchemists, he has no other skills. It’s truly weird. Like he has a very OP Body Refining cultivation technique, but all he can do is land plain ordinary punches. He has no techniques that can compliment it. He has a well balanced and strong Five Elements cultivation technique, which has its origins during Ancient Era. The creator of the technique also used it to become an immortal. Everyone after him also had significant achievements, and are famous throughout the world. Yet, the MC has no techniques or skills he can use in pair with it to display his actual strength. He does however have another Five Elements skill/technique (not sure what exactly), which create five coloured lights and he can send them into others body, and then immobilise them. But it doesn’t do much to those with strong cultivation, which by the way constitutes to a lot of people that MC faces. Almost it can be used as a disruption. Apart from this, he has a sword skill, for sneak attacks. Yes, the MC who practices Five Elements Qi cultivation, Body Refining cultivation AND Divine sense cultivation simultaneously, has his only skill as a sneak attack skill that works at best again those within the same realm. News flash! He is anyway invincible in the same realm! He has the most underwhelming fights while being so incredibly strong. Phew! Anyway, apart from this… I guess you could say that the progress of the story is a bit bland. Everything is pretty conveniently handed to him. The place he stayed at in the beginning is attacked by beasts, and in the chaos, some human stepping stone is killed by MCs friend. UNSURPRISINGLY, this stepping stone has a very high grade sword, which is odd as he is a body and it’s the “novice area”. Also UNSURPRISINGLY, this friend gives the sword as a gift to the MC. This sword is a flawless sword which can become invisible and can be used to sneak attack. But is only against those within the same realm. UNSURPRISINGLY, a year or so later, in an auction he finds a technique which can be paired PERFECTLY with this sword, so much so that if paired with other swords, it’s not gonna work. So he gets it, but it’s incomplete. UNSURPRISINGLY, a few years later when the technique and sword is becoming unless to his realm, he finds the remains of the person who actually created the technique, and hence completely it, and also finds a broken sword and additional materials with the persons remains, which can be used to upgrade the sword to a very high level. This is just the instance with the sword skill. This is the case with all his skills. This is the first MC I have seen that never had to give up a cultivation technique or skill ‘coz they outlived their purpose. He’s just conveniently handed the means to keep cultivating the techniques he started on day one! Never having to give up and cultivate something else or something better. At the end of the day, it kills time. And its not bad in that regard. So try it if you have nothing else. It’s pretty short sized novel as well. About 400+ chapters.
*Review after reading till chapter 380* In short? I’d say forget the title and read it with the assumption that MC has a discipline related system. For a more elaborate explanation let us take a hypothetical situation to understand that problems here. Let me ask you this—- if there is a person who has the ability to see the future, or rather perceive a glimpse of future events, ATLEAST once a day, what do you think that cannot happen to this person? Yes, he will not be cornered and will always be prepared and a step ahead. Let me ask you another question—- if said person, who is able to perceive a glimpse of the future of his disciples but is now separated from them, what do you think can be a solution to this issue? Yes, he should try to glimpse their future and get information from it and find the approximate location of where they are or will be, so that he can meet them. Is the person I am talking about the MC? Yes. Can he really simulate his disciples futures? Yes. Without any cost, or backlash. And the total number of simulations each day overall is equal to the total number of disciples. He can even specify an initial condition as well. Let’s say if he specified that a certain disciple will always stay by his side for 100 years, and simulates the disciples future, that future will also do his future indirectly, since the disciple will be next to him. In this way, although he can only simulate his disciples future, he is able to simulate others future indirectly as well. Does he spam this OP ability? Never. Whaaaa—- yes, maybe once or twice, but mostly never. To the point that he encounters unexpected situations as well. Imagine you being a person who can see the future only to run into situations you never expected. You don’t even need to obsessively simulate it each day! Just once in 3 months? Or 6 months? Bruh! What the hell? He is separated from his disciples after he ascends, but is also notified by the system when his disciples also ascends. But makes no extra effort in finding them. Why do that? ‘coz the more disciples that are around him the faster he grows, thanks to cultivation feedback of what he gives them. So why don’t you try to find them? It’s been like 10+ thousand years!! And this is also my first time seeing an MC who is so OP yet so weak. Every other MC can atleast leapfrog multiple realms in a fight. This guy can jump 2 MINOR realms only! No matter the realm, he is only able to leapfrog 2 minor realms. Anymore, and he will be in a disadvantage. You might say that it’s not that bad. Well, he is able to leapfrog 2 minor realms after being equipped with strong equipments! So even with external enhancements, he’s only able to jump 3 minor realms at max, and each realm is divided in 9 minor realms. It’s baffling is because he is filled to the brim with equipments. High level defensive equipment? Yes, atleast 2. High level attack equipment? Yes, atleast 1. ‘coz he uses a sword formation most times, and ends up having over 5+ high level swords plus almost a 1000 low/mid level swords. High level soul equipment? Yes. All that plus his cultivation techniques are all higher level that his opponents making his base strength and foundation stronger. How is he not able to cross more than 3 realms in a fight? Huff! Anyway, I will take a break from this and see if I want to continue reading after a few more chapters are accumulated.
***Review after reading till chapter 2161*** So here’s another one. I’ve reached pretty far on this one.(On other websites obviously) I think I am just 40-50 chapters short from finishing the novel, but the final few chapters are starting to have issues where half the chapter is missing. So it gets difficult to understand to some extent. I’ll stop for a while till I can find a proper fixed chapter somewhere. But either way, it seems alright to review it at this point. 1. The MC does not have a FML. It’s good and understandable to a certain extent. MC’s reasoning is that he isn’t strong enough to focus on love and family for now, as they can get killed or take away from him—- stuff like that which can become a weakness or a drawback. It can be seen in multiple instances. For example, initially the MC was cursed by Time, so he had no lifespan and became immortal. So he was always concerned that if he fell in love and had a family, he would be immortal while everyone would die, and that’s depressing. Great. Good reasoning. But then he lost the immortality curse, but just before that, he started taking the path of “inner universe”—-to create a universe in your body. So as long as the universe isn’t destroyed, he is immortal. Here’s the thing, by this point, he can revive people from the dead. Literally. Obviously there are some restrictions, and you know how he can bypass those? By fishing people out from the River of Time. On and btw, since he has his own universe, he can imprint the life marks of others and make them have immortal bodies as well. Immortal as in completely undying. No just in terms of lifespan. Also, he later comes up with a method of space travel, where with a token and a single thought, you can return back to the inner universe, from anywhere and any Time. Yes any Time, as in Timeline. So there is no way anyone can trap him or anyone else who is bestowed by him with these methods. So at some point, all excuses are done. And it just seems to desperate in attempting to keep the FML out. Tbh, there are some great and genuine people that the MC likes. But it’s always some stupid reason and that story never develops. Ultimately, MC has grown way to strong and they are left way behind. Anyway, it’s not my story. So I just keep reading. It’s not much of a bother if there is a FML or not, just the fact that it’s avoid with weak reasons. There are quite a few problems in this novel, but when you have read 2000+ chapters, they kinda seem negligible. For those who like to focus heavily of little things, you might find it difficult to progress. But if you are okay with being able to grasp the overall meaning of any particular scene in the novel, then you will have no problem reading it till far. You will encounter the usual issue, like gender mismatch, translation error, or things like that. But hey! That’s not this novels problem, that’s all novels problem. Although I read the chapter elsewhere with passable translation, you’ll see China being mentioned quite often. But I that’s the fault in the translation and not an attempt at Nationalism and racism. This novel does not have racism and nationalism issues related to OUR WORLD. They do have their own world issues, which is basically a necessary plot/arc that all novels have. Give it a read. It’s alright.👍🏼
This is my first time seeing a cultivation technique made public, which isn’t unusual. What’s different is that it can be cultivated up till 5 major realms. If you consider the standard cultivation realms, this technique can be cultivated up till the Soul Formation/Deity Transformation realm, which is insane. Even if it’s a basic cultivation technique.
Welcome! Welcome!~~ Welcome to the world of protagonists! Here, everyday is a new event. Events that are even less favorable than before begin to unfold. Everyday is a new challenge to overcome! Can you survive? Barely!~ Can the people around you survive? Hahahaha, next question please.
Oh ya. Kurama was plenty grateful.🙃
