Review Detail of Vajira in The Dark Blood Age

Considering the amount of hate this novel receives, I can only say it is undeserved. Compared to some novels that simply copy and paste the typical wish-fulfillment story without even a hint of trying to flower it with a good story it is way better. Albeit many novels are wish-fulfillment, this one is not as obvious. At least the protagonist starts out strong with a logical set of rational thoughts. Even the cheat is not as powerful as some other tools out there. Just a book about some cultivation techniques that seem to be useful. However, there is a huge major flaw in this story. This might be the reason why many people dislike this story. And the huge major flaw in it is the teasing of thousands of potential story threads which all lead to nothing. For example, you say that there is a majorly important stone collection of five pieces and if you don't, then something bad is going to happen. The author teases that for roughly 20 chapters. And then? Not a single word about it. Instead, the story moves to another plot point. And suddenly this plot point becomes useless as well. Do you get it? It starts out with a really strong beginning, rational thoughts, and a protagonist who can actually think. But it evolves into this festival of moving from plot point to plot point. It does not give the reader the usual feeling of building up on somethiing that you have read in the chapters before. Instead the story simply ignores the logic it had build up in the previous chapters. Which is a bad thing as it makes the reader feel that nothing has a point. Why read the roughly 20 chapters, when the plot mentioned in this chapter is not even mentioned in a single line in the next hundred chapters. And this plot was described as the urgent stuff to do. It makes people infuriate and think they wasted their time. Though the first couple of chapters show a story it could have been. At least that is only my opinion.
