Any Pure Wuxia Novels?
Any good martial arts stories? People hardly write wuxia these days. I miss it. Nowadays, everyone gets a System and cheats their way to immortality and godhood, with divine physiques and all that. I'm sick of it. It's so boring. I want to feel the thrill of roaming the world with a sword and settling scores with a sense of justice.

It's been a long time since I've seen such a good book on Tomato. The realistic writing style and ancient Chinese romance are not simplistic or overly sentimental. Set in the Tang Dynasty, this realistic fantasy martial arts novel contrasts sharply with Jin Yong's romantic martial arts stories. It incorporates history, martial arts, fantasy, and even everyday life, all seamlessly integrated. I don't think I've ever read a novel of this type before; it has a bit of an epic feel to it.
The only two reasons to leave it on Rotten Tomatoes
A rare ensemble piece in the world of martial arts fiction, with each character vividly portrayed and fully fleshed out. If you yearn for Jin Yong's world of martial arts, or if you appreciate Gu Long's style, this book is definitely worth reading! It has a truly epic feel!
When I first started reading, the author hadn't finished updating the series. I thought it was a traditional martial arts story, but then aliens and time travel appeared. It features familiar sects, yet it's not the typical martial arts world we know; their martial arts still have a fantasy/xianxia feel. The characters and plot are engaging, though the ending was quite abrupt.
The plot is meticulously conceived, the writing is solid, and it is a masterpiece, well worth reading. It's very well written, demonstrating a strong command of language. Although the current rating is low, true talent will always shine through. However, updates are a bit slow.
