This book isn't a typical power fantasy novel about leveling up, defeating monsters, and showing off. It's about traditional Chinese tales of ghosts, fox spirits, monsters, and karma. The protagonist's abilities develop gradually, starting with self-preservation before becoming more aggressive. The pacing is a bit slow, but there's absolutely no intention to pad the story.
The story is excellent and engaging, the writing is fluent and demonstrates profound literary skill. This book is worth reading and offers many valuable insights.
The ghosts and spirits in this book do have a very classical feel to them, which is great. Keep it up!
The book is great, the story is super exciting, and the writing is excellent. It's a rare gem. However, the protagonist is a bit of a loser, which I don't really like!
6.5???? This book is only 6.5? If you want to read trash, go ahead and read it, don't be so nosy and ruin other people's lives!
The book is really good and worth collecting.
Having finished the two short stories, I've now reached the section on the Evil Taoist Priest. While it's not exactly a wish-fulfillment story, it's more logical, with a rich interplay between legal cases and Yin-Yang events. It's not a typical system-based, divinely bestowed story, yet it's flexible and not at all forced, with smooth connections between different characters and events. Some minor flaws don't hinder the positive cycle that drives the plot forward.
This is enough for anyone to read. If the foreigners next door see this, they'll think we look down on them. Ten more chapters, ten chapters each! [Think about it carefully][Think about it carefully]
It would be an outrage against heaven and earth not to pursue this book! 👍👍👍👍
Not bad, it's starting to taste good.
