*Slightly more detailed review compared to others (as of V10)" My second favorite IET novel, right behind Swallowed Star. IET took his experience from his previous novels, polished everything up and then transformed it into this beast. Why is it so good? The writing quality of IET, world building, action, details and especially the characters. His writing style is just so good. As readers, we see and feel, usually, while immersing ourselves, but I just feel that with LXY, it's more powerful. I can only explain it like this: Novels are like machines with cogs. If the cogs don't all work together properly, even if the machine "works", it just doesn't feel right. LXY doesn't have that problem. Unlike typical MCs of this genre, Xue Ying is a spear user... And IET does it VERY well, surprisingly. He has a mom for once. A nice family that's caring and he cares for. He isn't a bloodthirsty maniac (not saying I dislike those MCs), but he's more caring and "relatable?", but he's also no pushover. He's still the typical IET super hardworking genius never before seen since the dawn of time, but I quite like his personality a bit more compared to other MCs. There isn't a harem. Like usual, it's an OTP... But it just takes a while. They're on the path to immortality, so even though things can be slightly lovey dovey, there isn't a rush. They both have their own paths. The other characters are cool as well. Most of them aren't 1-dimensional and actually have personalities and traits... Which is one of the best things about IET. Descriptions and world building is good. Things don't normally drag on for too long or too short; just the right amount. Not much else to say. Story is fun as well. It can be very exciting, yet also very tense where you start "feeling" everything so much. Like the struggle and emotions, you feel them. IETs novels all follow the same progression type system, but as I said before, he takes the experience from his previous novels and applies them here. If you've read CD/ST/DE, you'll definitely notice similarities with regards to abilities... But it's still done right and made interesting, trust me. Xue Yings style is awesome. Anyway, that's about it. If you want something that can sway your emotions, make you feel very immersed and which is also at the top of the Chinese Novel food chain, definitely check this out. One of the best Xianxia/Xuanhuan you will ever read, I promise!

An IET series where our MC's mother Isn't dead. GREAT READ. If you have ever read an IET series, you'd know that he loves to use a dead mother as a plot driving device.This however, is a great change and it's for your information, apparently the series which IET personally likes the most. Our good Ol' MC is our authors favourite MC.

Extremely boring. It's basically a rehash of coiling dragon. What's with all the zero chapter read five star reviews dominating the front page... My biggest problems with the story are pacing, followed by poor world building and one dimensional characters. Mentioning a city with tens of millions of people, how many thousands of cities, provinces, worlds and star systems there are do not equat to world building. You have to show that the world around you matters. Did your mc lost his flying bison in a city and it's so vast you can't find it? If not, than it doesn't matter how many hundreds of millions of people are in the city, they are but numbers and irrelevant and GOD, is the entire world in this story so irrelevant! It seems like nothing is happening in the world unless the mc is interacting with it. There are no sense of realism there. Mc lives in a castle, goes to some other castle, kills someone as a mission, comes back, mopes around in his castle because that's how you run a city, and voila he's the strongest in the world and goes to some place and... God the story lacks pacing and so many poorly done time skips. Show that passing of time matters before you do a time skip, not just when you need a powerup and can't find a way to engage your readers. ISSTH did a hundred year skip and I wasn't mad because before that I was with the mc on his day to day adventure, learning how important a day can be. And god the time skips in this story are so lame. He basically goes from zero to hevean rank in a few dozon chapters and heaven to legend in a couple more and by a hundred he achieves transcendence, the level that author introduced to be strongest at the start of the story. How do you keep writing once you've done that? Why, do a dbz twist, introduce a few more levels.And do you know how many interesting things happen to his life in the time he gets op as fk? You can count them on one finger, that's four if you are lazy, and god this story is so lazily written! You know, you can still feed on a lazily written, poorly paced story in a vacuum world, if the characters and their banters make up for it, and believe it or not, author fks that up really spectacularly. The characters have no depth, no complexity, no autonomy, no agency. They just exist to fill up a space. The two loving parents that got in trouble to motivate the mc, the cute lil bro to motivate the mc, the backstabbing gal to motivate the mc and hype the mysogonist fan base, none of them serves any other purpose and once you realise how utterly robotic and dull the characters are, how do you connect with them in any way? At least make up for their lack of personality with quips or humor but no, it's a serious story. A seriously dull story. And fk this Alice trope. When you have less personality than a side character with no dialogue, you don't get the girl, deal with with.

This is one of my most loved webnovels. The characters build up is spectacular and I love the hardworking MC to death. His storyline is realistic and the MC isn't over powered he falls but rises and sometimes seems like he won't rise again. It ..... I can't describe I feel sad for those who don't read it and like webnovels. I was extremely sad when radiant translations stop it. I praise you Qudian that you will not fair my expectations and continue where it left off.

I'm only one year old, what the heck is a Overturning System?!

Absurd! Reincarnating as a newborn in a demon-infested world, the overturning system arrived 30 years early. [At 30, after enduring endless hardships, you have achieved nothing and remain a loner. Reward: Late Bloomer (Talent) - Effect: The older your bones, the faster you cultivate.] [Overturning mission: Defeat Chen Yuan at the sixth level of the Guiyuan Realm within a year. Reward: Swordsmanship entry-level] One-year-old Chen Yi looked at the content on the panel, then down at his small arms and legs, falling into deep thought. 'Damn! This system definitely arrived too early!' 'I'm only a year old, what good is the Late Bloomer talent now?' 'And Chen Yuan of the Guiyuan Realm...' ... Years later, war reports came from the frontlines. 'The Tianyuan Continent’s top ten martial arts prodigy, Champion Marquis of the Wei Dynasty, the Amorous Young Master, Sword Saint Chen Yi, slaughtered 100,000 demons on the battlefield of Taizhou Mountain to celebrate for the human race!' However, Chen Yi looked at the battlefield flowing with rivers of blood and shook his head: 'I’ve been making overturn since I was one, experiencing countless life and death situations to achieve my current cultivation level. It’s not surprising you can’t resist!' Those 'life and death' crises were terrifyingly daunting. The big brother at one year old, childhood sweetheart at five, senior brother at ten, princess at a tender age... Who understands my hardships? PS: Infant stream, system-arriving-early stream, light-hearted, humorous, passionate. PPS: Also known as 'Starting the Overturn as an Infant', 'Reborn as an Infant, What an Overturn! ', 'Talking is Useless, It's Time to Fight.'
