The beginning was quite good, and the plot was relatively original, but I suspect even the author himself didn't know what he was writing later on.
The main character isn't a saint, and the romance is minimal. This is one of the better books I've read so far. I initially thought it wouldn't be good because of the rating, haha.
Having read up to chapter 139, I'll briefly comment on a few points: 1. The story has a good balance of pacing, with both fast and slow moments. The plot doesn't drag, and the way the plot points are developed and resolved is quite orderly. 2. Both the main and supporting characters are well-developed. They are intelligent and shrewd.
I finally finished reading it. I followed it from Li Po and Ye Yang's perspective. Wei Ping's story is very vivid, from a novice to an invincible warrior. It's a long story, but each character is portrayed very vividly, making it feel less like a story and more like a diary.
He was born from a borrowed life in the mortal realm. He is very talented, but unfortunately not famous. Hopefully, he will be appreciated by a benefactor.
The beginning was well-written, but once the Eastern Saint and Western King factions appeared... Well, I couldn't appreciate the later parts. However, aside from the main character's childhood storyline, the earlier parts were still worth watching (this is just my personal opinion).
Old Miao's writing on brotherhood is better; some of his romantic storylines are infuriating. The character Li Po and Ye Yang, who borrowed each other's lives, are the most compelling.
This is the pinnacle of supernatural fiction I've ever seen. I watched it in great detail, from beginning to end, and it's now kept hidden away. I'll take it out and watch it a few more times when I have some free time.
The story is pretty good, quite long with many plot twists. I've read up to chapter 100 so far, which tells three stories. This book is suitable for readers who pay close attention to detail. Someone like me, who skims, will easily get confused if I read too quickly. 😂
There's no harem, no smooth sailing, no invincibility; everything is out of helplessness, being schemed against step by step until the end. Only the "divinely forbidden body" can be considered a cheat code, since without it, probably not so many people would revolve around him. But so far, I still like Uncle Miao's "The Borrower of Life in the Mortal World" the most, since I found it there, hahaha.
