The grand age of xianxia: Cultivate and level up, find love in a xianxia world. Ancient myths, dazzling and wondrous. The Dao has no end, and neither does the struggle for supremacy.

Yuan Yuan's Recommendations [Primordial World / Investiture of the Gods / Journey to the West]
Since Pangu created the world, it has endured several great calamities: the Dragon-Phoenix War, the Witch-Demon Catastrophe, the Investiture of the Gods, and the Journey to the West. This list collects stories about the Primordial World, the Investiture of the Gods, and the Journey to the West, offering a fresh perspective on familiar myths. (Rated out of ten based on plot, characters, and prose.) If you know any novels about mythology you'd recommend, please leave a comment.

The author is foolish, refuses to heed loyal advice, and treats updates like wolves and tigers, thus failing his readers. We urge the author to issue a self-criticism to appease the readers' anger.
I just finished watching *The Lotus Lantern*. Suddenly, I realized the Queen Mother of the West's words made a lot of sense. Shouldn't gods be restrained? Since they are gods, how can they be swayed by the desires of mortals? How can they have desires? It feels like the Heavenly Laws are less about restraining gods and more about protecting mortals. Think about it.
In reality, King Zhou was overthrown because the Zhou dynasty used the guise of justice to commit evil deeds. Firstly, he abolished sacrificial rites, which was considered disrespectful to Heaven. What's wrong with abolishing the practice of killing a few people as sacrifices to Heaven? Wang Mang is a similar example.
The novel started off quite well, but it got progressively worse. The villains were incredibly stupid, incompetent at everything they did, and always failed miserably. I couldn't even understand how Zhunti and Jieyin managed to rise to their positions. The protagonist was just plain powerful.
The labels are all wrong; it's the last human emperor. Zhou was the true human king, calling himself the Son of Heaven and worshipping Heaven and Earth.
The protagonist's court killed the Qi River God, and the Heavenly Court went into overdrive, as did the protagonist. They were like two firecrackers tied together, ready to explode at the slightest spark, like a joke. But things in this world are rarely so black and white. At this time, the Heavenly Court was merely a name without substance, consisting of only a handful of powerful figures.
Ugh! Turns out the author's book outline is just a comedic, silly writing style. I feel so embarrassed after giving so many suggestions, even though the writing itself was quite enjoyable. Keep up the good work, author! This book isn't really for me.
This book is alright in terms of content. The only problem is the awkward use of space and time. I abandoned it several times because of this. Several or even a dozen events occur simultaneously, and everything that just happened is completed in the same timeframe.
The Shang dynasty wanted to innovate but was overwhelmed and destroyed by conservative forces. What you described in your introduction is no different from what happened in history.
Why are so many people using settings from other books? It's ridiculous. They should look at how the author sets things up first. Goodness, the comments are full of people saying how the prehistoric world should be like this and that. What does the setting of other books have to do with this one?
