Of the 143 fully read qidian novels in my library, this might actually be my favorite, or at least top 3. It’s without a doubt the best cultivation novel I’ve read, and it’s quite refreshing in that it deviates so much from other cultivation novels. It truly has its own charm, and even though I love novels like Lord Xue Ying and desolate era, this slightly more slice of life and comedy style cultivation is often a more enjoyable read. The story might remind many of “the spiritual attainment of Ming He”, in that a lot of the same characters from Chinese mythology like nuwa, three pure ones and so on, but the novels style differs a lot. A great aspect to the novel is that it doesn’t only follow the MC, but also a lot of likable side characters. These characters are well written, have their own stories and personalities. You get vivid feelings for different characters, like his earnest master, his slightly clumsy and adorable junior sister, his scheming (in a fun way) uncle master, his unrestrained martial aunt, the icy but innermost fiery senior sister etc. You start to like and care for all these characters. So my conclusion is, try this story out, it’s great! If it doesn’t get picked, I might just have to read mtl, but I’d be extremely sad as it would feel like running this master piece of a novel.
