I reject all of that.

The plot is fast-paced, chapters 49-51 are a bit off, and aside from a few minor flaws, it's still a pretty good read. Those who enjoy this genre should like it. In summary, I highly recommend it if the author can maintain the pace and reach a million words; there shouldn't be any major problems (I'll share the results in the book group when that's done).
Super good! This is the only book whose plot I've really enjoyed since "Above the Celestial Master"! And it's not about live fortune telling or anything like that, it's really good! Highly recommended! (So many Taoist novels these days involve live streaming, and some are really mindless; it's hard to find many good ones that don't have this kind of content anymore.)
This book is truly excellent, especially the part depicting Lu Bu's epic battle with Sun Wukong over Diao Chan. However, Xue Baochai was incredibly powerful; if it weren't for Darius's outer-range attack and Noxus Guillotine, that M4 6x scope spray would have been fatal.
It's well-written, with well-developed characters and a charismatic protagonist. Readers shouldn't jump to conclusions based on just one review; you have to read it to know for sure. Don't give it a low score lightly. Sometimes it's simply necessary for the plot. Don't dislike any particular character too much; they're there to advance the story.
The theme of time travel reflecting history was popular for a while, but it never really took off. The reason is that repeated time travel to alter reality inevitably introduces logical inconsistencies, and even minor oversights can lead to problems. This book is no exception. You can read it without overthinking or being too critical. I'd give it an 8/10.
The story interweaves reality and the Tang Dynasty a thousand years ago, the writing is smooth, and the plot is logical. Very good! 👍
To be honest, this book shouldn't only have a 7.1 Rating. Although it has its flaws, it's still quite good. I'll list what I consider to be flaws (for reference only): 1. Ye Qingmei's personality is a flaw; she comes across as somewhat arrogant and conceited, though this isn't entirely unrealistic, it just doesn't feel right to read. 2.
The writing is alright, the plot is novel and quite attractive. The biggest drawback of this novel is the lack of satisfying moments, and the details need more polishing. It gives the impression that the ancient setting is a bit restrained, while the modern setting is somewhat controlled. Also, I think the Mountain Lord would be best used as a mount instead of a human.
I used to read with a watch in high school, but now that I've switched to a phone, I'm giving it five stars. I've been following it for a while, and the writing style has clearly improved. However, since the male lead ascended to the other side, the scenes described have become fewer and fewer. I hope they can add more scenes featuring the male lead.
It's alright, not too toxic, good for passing the time. Uh, never mind, he died from poisoning.
