Wuxia: I Just Want to Practice Martial Arts

The protagonist learned so many powerful skills, but none of their wonders were demonstrated; it seemed their only advantage was the speed at which he could accumulate internal energy. The fusion of "Free and Unfettered Wind Riding" is just a name; it doesn't convey any real characteristics. The fusion of Buddhist elements doesn't even deserve a proper name.

This type of novel is best written in a more mainstream world, such as The Return of the Condor Heroes, The Storm Riders, and The Smiling, Proud Wanderer. It's best not to stray from the main plot, switching between martial arts, fantasy, and science fiction all at once. I've read many novels like that, and that's how they fall apart.

Just to clarify beforehand, original martial arts dramas like those based on Jin Yong's works, Gu Long's works, and works like "Water Moon Cave Heaven," "Demon Sword," and "Life and Death Chess" do not have realm divisions. Only works like "Snow Sword" which inherently have realms will have them.

This wuxia novel is great! It's exciting, but not mindless. I strongly advise against reading Joy of Life. Of the ten books written about Joy of Life, nine are unpublished, and the other one is abandoned.

Qiao Feng's Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms were unparalleled, and Li Qiushui's Lesser Formless Divine Skill was also top-tier in the martial arts world. There's no need to try every single divine skill you see! Different internal skills have different attributes, and some even conflict with each other. Practicing them all just makes you think you're not dying fast enough or miserably enough.

This is the most sober-minded time-travel martial arts novel I've ever read. Jin Yong's martial arts novels, starting with Tian Long Ba Bu, addressed a problem that many martial arts novels overlooked: "Do you understand the secret manuals?" That's right, knowledge has barriers.

I thought it was about using any means necessary to become stronger, but after reading a few chapters, it turned out to be all thanks to the protagonist's plot armor.

Why bother with all that martial arts? It's just martial arts for the sake of martial arts. It was interesting and good at first, but we really need less of this kind of plot. If you're going to keep focusing on martial arts for the sake of martial arts, just make the protagonist invincible in the universe. Why bother with all this? Add some humanity. Less scheming. Don't use martial arts for scheming and plotting. Too much of that gets boring. Martial arts are for humans, not robots.

The writing style is alright, but the protagonist seems a bit like a slave to martial arts techniques, running around chasing after various techniques just like us working-class folks. It lacks the spiritedness of martial arts novels, and the complexities of human relationships in the martial arts world are also poorly portrayed.

Are you even going to continue writing this book? One update a day is so infrequent, while your other book updates so frequently.
