Establishing the Dao with the Mystic Origin

After reading nine chapters, I have to complain. The protagonist is constantly thinking about how a sage is plotting against him; it's such a childish and immature thought. If there really were a powerful sage, would he leave such a terrible impression on your lowly world? He'd probably erase it the moment a mortal even entertained the idea. Besides, how many people in this world want to be a pawn of a powerful being but fail, yet you're worrying about nothing?

Talkative, indecisive, and self-righteous. Who do you think you are? Do you think even a sage would have to scheme against you? What do you have to offer?

I couldn't stand it after reading a few chapters. The protagonist is too narcissistic and is always afraid of falling into the schemes of the sages. Seriously? You're just a mortal who hasn't even cultivated, less than an ant. You're afraid of being schemed against by the sages? You're overthinking it. The sages are scheming about the grand schemes of heaven and earth.

Besides the Green Ox's weapon, Pigsy's rake was also forged by Laozi. Of the four characters in Journey to the West, Pigsy actually had the best equipment (the Monkey King's staff was forged by Yu the Great, and Sandy's was made from a cassia branch).

I initially thought I'd found a good read, but after reading a few chapters it was just another weak protagonist story. I personally have a bias against weak protagonist stories.

Would a sage really scheme against you and let you know? If a sage were truly scheming against someone, they would only make that person willingly be schemed against, or be completely unaware of being schemed against. How could someone as insignificant as you possibly notice anything? If they were truly scheming against you, they would have erased the moment you even entertained the thought; you would never even have such a thought.

In the author's style, the protagonist shouts "Give me your life!" And then begins to explain, "Give me your life," meaning to take what belongs to the other person, not your own. The other person's taking is different from your own; this taking depends on the technique, and techniques are divided into innate and non-innate skills, and the protagonist's innate skill is different...

You're always trying to outwit the sages? Who do you think you are? The sages have always wanted to outwit you. Why don't you think about why you time-traveled? It's toxic.

Honestly, after reading this far, all I can say is: you're overthinking it. The protagonist is undoubtedly a walking contradiction. On one hand, he's extremely suspicious, distrustful of his own superpowers, and afraid of being schemed against. On the other hand, he openly shares everything about himself with others, as if the whole world is full of good people.

Fearing wolves in front and tigers behind, constantly worrying about being plotted against—does the author suffer from schizophrenia? He's always thinking there are treacherous officials trying to harm him.
