From a Fire Boy to a Taoist Deity

The work recommended by book friends in the comment section is a decent traditional fantasy. The protagonist was formerly a religious figure who participated in the Anti-Japanese War and sacrificed his life to protect cultural relics and classics. This setting originally made people look forward to how the Taoist priest would show off his talents in a world where he could really practice magical skills, which was a relief. But as the plot unfolds, I really don't see what purpose this setting has besides explaining the origin of the Golden Finger Hunyuan Dan Furnace. Now that I have read Chapter 5, the novel does not reflect the Taoist priest's bloody nature, nor does it reflect the Taoist priest's integrity, nor does it reflect the Taoist priest's character that he has honed over the years of participating in the Anti-Japanese War, nor does it reflect whether the Taoist priest is thoughtful and steady. In short, the protagonist is a pretty decent traditional fantasy protagonist. You will have no problem reading it regardless of his past life experiences. No, if you treat the protagonist as an ordinary time traveler, the plot of the story will progress more smoothly=. = Let's not talk about anything else, let's talk about the opening chapter where the Taoist priest punches to death the bastard fellow disciple who beat his predecessor to death with a sap for a few bottles of pills. I have something to say, Taoist Priest, I am not saying that it is wrong for you to punch the villain to death. There is nothing wrong with you in terms of avenging your predecessor or punishing the bully and the murderer, but what kind of person are you? Patriots serving the country! Who is he? Back in Shanghai, he wasn't even a green-skinned gangster, he was just a bastard, and you punched him to death, you really shamed him! =. = Reading experience: If you put aside the protagonist's past life experience ★★★, it's a decent traditional fantasy, if you can't ignore it ★☆☆, if the author hadn't told me so, I really wouldn't have seen that the protagonist's past life was not only a Taoist priest, but also a benevolent person who devoted himself to the Anti-Japanese War.
