As a fan of fairy tales + ghosts, this book is considered to be above average. The opening of Nine Stars Lianzhu's Awakening of Memories is very gripping, the loyalty setting of the Silver Scale War Guards is quite poignant, and the fighting scenes are vividly described, especially the part where Yan Jun uses the blood spell to kill the traitors, which is very enjoyable to watch. However, the pace is a bit slow in the later stages, and I look forward to revealing more details of past life betrayals in the future.
Overall, it is a cool story that meets expectations. The setting of the return of Lord Yan has its own tension, and scenes such as the nine stars hanging upside down and the formation of thousands of corpses are very impressively described. The protagonist is decisive in killing, and the way he handles the villain is crisp and neat, which makes you feel relieved. However, part of the plot is a bit familiar and lacks some freshness. Fortunately, the pace is well controlled and does not make people feel dragged out. It is suitable to watch in your spare time.
It's not amazing, but it's worth reading. The system of ghost cultivation is quite complete. From will-o'-the-wisps to soul-eating nails and pottery urns to soothe souls, each ability has a clear role and does not appear cluttered. The protagonist's revenge line progresses step by step, without making too big a deal at once, and the sense of growth is more realistic.
It's okay. I've watched it for more than half of the time. Although there are a few bad points, it's okay. After watching it for so long, I've become immune to a lot of it.
The logic is clear and each chapter is interesting and worth following!
