The Transmigrating Daoist

Qidian is going to implement a real-name authentication system for authors in the future. Authors who have abandoned their works will be tagged, so we'll have a better understanding of their new book releases.

The author writes very well. I like those who are single-minded in their pursuit of the Tao and have normal values. Those arrogant and boastful people are too unrealistic. Cultivation is about cultivating the mind, so there shouldn't be so many face-slapping moments.

I read this book several years ago, and when I stumbled upon it again, I intended to reread it. However, after reading only a few chapters, I couldn't hold back any longer; I simply had to get this off my chest. In the first instance, the protagonist was just days away from achieving the 100-day Foundation Establishment stage and cultivating magical power when a man, having worshipped a weasel…

Let me talk about the feeling this book gives me. The author's dedication to preserving traditional culture is commendable, and the Taoist thought is relatively good. The setting is also good, and the writing is quite good. But why does it give people a strange feeling? The protagonist of the whole book is a seeker of Tao, but he always makes me feel that he is not sincere.

Are there any similar novels you could recommend? This author writes really well, and this is a novel from 2017. Look at the current situation: everyone's either a system, a supreme god, or vying for sainthood with the Primordial Celestial Venerable, or discussing Zen with Buddha—all sorts of things, brimming with resentment.

I read this three years ago, and recently found it again after deleting books from my reading list. I'm reading it again. Damn it, you abandoned it again?

I think the Hong Kong segment is pretty good; it successfully blends the plots of dozens of ghost movies together! When I was a child, I always felt a sense of disorientation when watching movies, as if these movies were telling the story of the same world! In my opinion, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is incredibly low-quality.

Could you fix the update date and frequency?

The Hong Kong storyline is less engaging than before, feeling chaotic and disjointed. While there might be some new plot developments involving the underworld or the Yin-Yang symbol, the amount of buildup over this long period is negligible, making it essentially just filler. The main purpose of this story is to improve abilities and cultivation in preparation for returning to Maoshan.

This hiatus might mean another six months before it resumes, damn it!
