Great novel with "two worlds" plot that can make one be glued to screen. Recommended to check out, the beginning was lackluster compared to what's ahead. This novel includes some "kingdom" building/force management too. Sadly I can't find MTL after chapter 725, so that's where my journey with this book ends for now. Will re-check in future for more!
If you guys enjoy the latest "two worlds" genre, then I'd recommend "Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery" that I am currently digging in (am at around chapter 700, MTL is on fannovels). The first 30 chapters were boring, but later it's great. One plot is in the modern day technological cultivation Earth that is adjacent to a realm with 8 great sects, they have millions or billions of cultivators each and they war for thousands of years across dozens of small worlds and space for resources etc. The Earth cultivators are weak solo, their cultivation core focuses on developing army battle formations, team battles w/ technology. The second plot is in some "small" world (it's big but they called it small) to where our MC can teleport, it's too far away from the main battlefields and sects. Here, first it's a local three-party conflict in some quite marginal area, then we slowly get enlarged to another, stronger continent/area where a certain ruling hegemon was getting invaded by another hegemon migrating force and they fight for hundreds of years with some twists and turns. MC has many cool solo moments and leapfrogging, does some "kingdom" building as he develops his own forces (he would prefer to just cultivate while others farm passive income or research techniques for him). MC sometimes cheats with modern Earth technology, e.g. when he was still mortal, he used drones for topography and opponent movements.
They were not the best, and so many things went wrong, but I also enjoyed reading them. Later I also enjoyed "A Sorcerer's Journey". As of now I am digging into "Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery", though this is not about wizards, more like modern technological cultivator Earth warring with great sects from outside the realm, competing for resources and small worlds.
How to say it.. While reading, you feel like you enjoy reading this novel, but it also feels somewhat boring and predictable, even though it's not bad. At around chapter 500 and 600 I was considering to put it on hold and read some new novel, it felt as if there was nothing outstanding or groundbreaking, plus there are too many tournaments in the plot that aren't really that great. Then the ancestal dragon court arc happens starting at around 650 chapter and plot intensifies like on steroids. It blows my mind... my heart starts pounding crazily, my blood starts pumping and body breaks out in sweat. GREAT! Author finally delivered something incredible, and I wasn't mentally prepared. It was worth reading the previous chapters even if for just this one arc. I will continue reading it and see if author can surprise me again. Cheers
This novel has inflated rating - the author has a big fanbase. I used to enjoy his novels back when the new chapters appeared on spcnet forum, as we barely had any novels translated. I've checked out 1181 novels so far. I enjoy various novels, but they need to have this something that makes me continue reading. This novel lacks it, it's just the same iet over and over. Even the author of "Mortal Journey to Immortality" which we used to read like a decade or more ago could do much better with his newer novel "Big Dream Master". As for other authors nowadays, "I Hijacked a Timeline" or even "Immortality: My cultivation Has No Bottleneck" is much more enganging even if it's not even focused on fights.
I am a little more than halfway through the novel. It's one of the rare novels where MC travels to future during the story. It started to pick up after first 100 "normal" chapters, got boring after 600. It got interesting at like 900+ again, but then came a weird plot moment. I am thoroughly confused. The future route seems to be finished so early, MC's "cheat" shatters, that would be OK, but then he is not brought back to the point before pulled to the future, but with a sudden 100 year time skip. And that's where the plot feels weird and confusing. All of sudden devil reincarnations are thrown out of the window, what MC promised (look for someone) is not mentioned, his longevity is not mentioned and we get that illogical competition. Uhh. A mood killer. I'd love to get an explanation but can't find spoiler reviews.
It's bland and average. Barely 10 chapters in... There's a somewhat similar, but higher quality novel named "Immortality: My cultivation Has No Bottleneck" which, despite the strong focus on story and characters and barely any fights in the first 100 chapters, made me keep wanting more, until I finished it whole recently. It was much more interesting than this.
