The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news! John3.16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. 19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.

The character designs and imagery are fine. Since the novel rarely had detailed character descriptions, there wasn't much to expect design wise. There are two problems I see that don't relate to the imagery. The first big problem I see is the translation. Just by comparing the first chapter of this to the novel makes it clear the translator isn't trying to make it accurate. An adaptation should have similar terms to the source material, but there are so many translation differences that it's clear they don't care. An example would be Essence Energy Art versus Qi Spell. Essence Energy is the name used for energy throughout the entire novel, so Qi should not be mentioned here. As for Spell, I have no clue why that's used instead of art. This whole ordeal just makes it more confusing for people who want to read the original work after reading the comic. The other big problem is the story development. Just chapter 1 alone covers 3 chapters in the novel. The end of chapter 1 corresponds to the end of novel chapter 3. One might expect a decent bit of content from those 3 chapters, but in fact, a lot is cut. One very important detail is the information about how dimensional crystals usually work. That being one needs to absorb crystals of higher values to increase stats. By leaving just that information out, people are left wondering things like "why are his stats so low?" or "is he bad at the game?". Since dimensional crystals are one of the items seen very often in the story, they shouldn't have cut information about the simplest aspects. By hiding this information, people have less of an understanding of WHY things in the story are important or special. TLDR: This manhua is trying to rush through the story without trying to make a faithful adaptation.
