The Way of the Heavens, Knocking on the Primordial World’s Door

With so few likes, I'll probably sneak a bite of shit without anyone noticing! 😏

The elements of earth, fire, water, and wind are not called the Four Symbols, but the Four Great Elements. The theory of the Four Symbols is combined with Taiji (the Supreme Ultimate) and Yin-Yang (the Two Forms). The so-called Yin-Yang gives rise to the Four Symbols, which means further dividing Yin and Yang.

It seems pretty good. In the past, the infinite flow novels I've seen were either based on the most powerful prehistoric world or the most powerful prehistoric world. But this is a martial arts novel where you can't be invincible. The setting is quite good.

I skipped through the Douluo Continent storyline without even watching it because I felt the scope was too small. I found the Shrouding the Heavens storyline much more exciting, and I read a lot of it and really liked it.

Why follow the plot? Starting with immortals from the primordial era and writing a story like Douluo Continent that follows the plot makes the scope too narrow, and it smacks of pandering to the protagonist. I really don't understand the point of joining the academy and participating in the competition; is it just for fun?

So far, I haven't seen anything that disgusts me. What I found particularly satisfying was that this book didn't mention the double standard of the "world strength theory." It was a breath of fresh air. In a typical prehistoric fantasy novel, it would probably be an unjustified way of saying things like, "Your world's laws are incomplete."

The author only mentioned there's no female lead, so will there be a male lead?

This is toxic, goodbye! It completely overturned my understanding of the Primordial World. Douluo Continent is at most a mid-thousand world. The Primordial World, however, is a great thousand world or even greater. It's just that Journey to the West and Investiture of the Gods are almost a regression.

This book is a bit rubbish; it made me quite unhappy. They're supposed to be primordial beings from a high-level prehistoric world, with a high cultivation system. But in *Douluo Continent*, they get sealed away—are you kidding me?

This book is great in every way, especially the cultivation system! But to be honest, the author has really ruined the Ruthless Empress character. Her personality is completely distorted. It's so easy to make her wholeheartedly follow the protagonist!
