This book is alright, but after reading many similar novels, there's one question I've never understood: With 1.4 Billion people in China, why is it that when Chinese Taoist magic becomes unusable, it's the Japanese, Thai, or Vietnamese who are unaffected? They're all in the Dharma-ending Age. In China, aside from the protagonist's overpowered abilities, there's practically no one who can actually fight. Perhaps these authors have developed a fixed mindset.
I've read up to chapter 18. A question lingers in my mind: does the protagonist really help everyone? Even those gangsters? Doesn't Taoism emphasize karma and retribution? You help a bad guy escape, and he might just kill an innocent person to calm his nerves... To paraphrase a line from Douyin: You haven't committed a crime, but you're being immoral.
This woman is too annoying and is hindering the protagonist's cultivation. If there were cultivators in the world, I would kill that woman without hesitation. Cultivators only have the Great Dao in their hearts.
To be honest, after seeing quite a few, I found them a bit strange. Taoist priests and Buddhist monks may not be considered noble, but they are certainly not universally disliked. My first reaction was that it was understandable for Taoist priests to swindle money; there are too many charlatans and fraudsters these days, and there are many fake Taoist priests.
The world of cultivation doesn't really need a female protagonist. I don't like horses; I feel they're not suitable for a main character.
It's amazing! The only immortal in the world—please, no female lead!!! Keep it up!!!
I don't know when it started, but the "spoiled girlfriend" has become a standard feature of modern women, especially Chinese women. Many women even take pride in being spoiled. Men, following suit, also believe that being spoiled is a good thing. I remember someone saying it started with the Korean drama "My Spoiled Girlfriend."
Those pro-Japanese and pro-American experts, scholars, and public intellectuals—every single one of them is biased and ungrateful. They are all traitors who have forgotten their roots and are utterly shameless. In fact, they all deserve to be killed. If the law allowed, I would gladly take up my old legs and chase after them to stab them a few times. It would be like going back to a chaotic era to kill traitors.
Focusing only on merit, ignoring cause and effect? Knowing the secrets of heaven, yet arbitrarily altering fate. Little do they know that human nature is inherently evil; if the person you save harms someone else, who bears the karmic consequences?
Fingerprints are left on objects thrown from high-rise buildings, especially those dumbbell plates. Chinese police are not useless!
