A Knight Cultivator in the Abyss

I stumbled upon this great book late at night. Although I've only read half of it so far, the author's writing is so smooth and doesn't feel like that of a newcomer at all. To summarize its characteristics using another book review, it's like "the body is in the abyss, but the mind isn't." Against a depressing backdrop, the protagonist and his group are like a bunch of quirky, carefree oddballs.

I'm actually quite curious, could a native knight understand the transmission of cultivation techniques? Take a passage from the Tao Te Ching, for example: "The highest virtue is not virtue, therefore it is virtue; the lowest virtue does not lose virtue, therefore it is not virtue. The highest virtue acts without intention, the lowest virtue acts with intention.

I watched it all in one go. The author's writing throughout the entire story is flawless, with no obvious plot holes, and the writing style fully supports the storyline. The combat system is also quite reasonable; some parts could even be modified to function as modules. The plot hasn't yet reached the most difficult part to write, so I'll talk about it here...

I think I understand why the author made it so short. 😏

Chased by a lustful demon, he ran a hundred zhang in an instant, then covered three li in five minutes? And that was after activating an escape technique; the lustful demon still couldn't catch him… When escorting succubi on reconnaissance missions, the speed reached 40 kilometers per hour, described as lightning fast. Sorry, I ride it every day ⚡️

Personal reading progress: Chapter 348 is a very poisonous plot. I personally accept it and cannot be dissuaded from it. First of all, Eluticia itself is a character in the official novel. If you want to use the official character as an author, don't add too many changes to the character's image and personality. Otherwise, you might as well create your own character.

The pacing is indeed too slow. The updates are already slow, and if the plot progresses slowly as well, it's hard to keep people engaged. Also, how strong is the protagonist? It feels like he's already quite powerful in the first level of the abyss, but there's no clear concept of that. Moreover, the protagonist's strength hasn't changed in a long time. Has he not even finished the Body Tempering stage yet?

Having read about a hundred chapters so far, my biggest feeling is that the plot is being dragged out. Looking at the table of contents, a single infiltration operation took up dozens of chapters, and there were even lengthy dialogues used to transition between battlefield scenes.

I was thinking, since you know so much about D&D, why didn't you just create a demon knight? It feels so out of place to have a cultivator knight; the art style doesn't match at all.

I just discovered a problem with this book: why was a cultivation setting added? Is there an explanation later? While every world created by D&D is part of the D&D multiverse, it still feels strange. If you really can't do it, why not just use Lu Yuan, the Godslayer from the 300th floor of the Abyss?
