   I believe this traditional cultivation novel has the potential to become a huge hit. There are several reasons why it's worth reading: first, the premise is excellent (it breaks away from traditional cultivation novels and has an extremely vast world view); second, the character details are superb (it doesn't follow the usual path); and third, the supporting characters leave a deep impression after reading (their names are all very well-chosen).
