Excellent writing; the prose, narrative, and emotional expression are all superb. This is the most solidly written novel in the immortality genre that I've read in a long time. The simple language and narrative slowly reveal the composure and serenity of an immortal. 👍👍👍👍
It's a good read; the emotional descriptions are very nuanced. I felt a lump in my throat when Old Zhao died. Keep up the good work, author! Recommended by a 20-year veteran reader.
This is indeed a good novel, different from other immortality novels, it has a unique flavor. The only downside is that the first dozen or so chapters are a bit rambling and can be a little difficult to read, but you can skip them without affecting the reading experience.
There don't seem to be any major problems at the moment. Okay, I've caught up to the latest chapter and take back my opinion. This princess is a poorly written character. When Wanwan was around, the protagonist's composure was alright, but this princess's character wasn't well-developed. Some readers even found her unlikable in the chapter reviews.
It's a classic story about guarding one's territory and achieving immortality, without any flashy or overly aggressive immortality tropes. There's no female lead yet (I don't know if she's a saintess). I just don't know what the old eunuch's fate will be. I hope he doesn't kill me off.
This is the first book I've followed in over three years, and I'm often deeply moved and brought to tears while reading it. The film adaptation might not be as heartfelt, but the author's words are more vivid than the illustrations. A great book; I hope the sequels won't be padded out!
The work is excellent. The characters are well-developed and engaging. The pacing is also acceptable. Overall, the plot is quite good. It's very exciting, and the novel is very enjoyable.
Overall, the writing is quite good, especially the middle and later parts. There are two particularly poignant chapters in the early part, especially the one with the old eunuch pleading. However, aside from those two chapters, I found the rest excellent, especially the middle and later parts. Some might think it's a bit cruel that the protagonist doesn't intervene to save people.
I've read over 100 chapters now, and let me summarize the main plot. The protagonist is an immortal, and I honestly don't understand what he's thinking. Maybe it's due to his worldview, but when faced with the separation and death of his family and close friends, his first instinct is to be indifferent to life and death.
7.2 Is a bit low. It's written with great emotion. However, the opening was probably poorly planned, with its causal logic and somewhat chaotic power system, making it sometimes awkward to read. If the opening and power system were properly organized, it would definitely be an excellent work worth 8 to 8.5.
