Summarize
1. The combat power system collapsed very quickly. There are nine realms from Qi Refining to Immortal Gate, then to Celestial Immortal, Golden Immortal, Grand Luo Immortal Lord, Immortal Emperor, and finally, the Ancient Starry Road. I want to say that in this world, Golden Immortals are as rare as dogs, and Grand Luo Immortals are everywhere. A Holy Land's Holy Son can easily reach Grand Luo.
I feel like learning alchemy was a real mistake... Ever since they started teaching alchemy, the entire plot structure of the book has gone wrong. The originally promising beast-taming style gradually turned into a story about a saint-level alchemist... To put it simply, the way they deliberately emphasized their weaknesses and avoided their strengths made me lose interest as I read on... 😭
The power levels and cultivation realms are ridiculously absurd. A pill refined by a Spirit-level alchemist actually works on the Xuanhuang Peach Tree in the Moonlit Holy Land, and the best fruit from an innate spiritual root only slightly improves aptitude.
After reading 200 chapters, I feel frustrated. Although you wanted to write about a happy family and joyful times, it's just self-indulgence, and it's others who are enjoying themselves. The enemy is always powerful; immortal lords and emperors roam everywhere, while the protagonist's cultivation is inferior to that of a dog.
I can drop the rest. Forget the forced pacing, they're even planning to make it angsty. I'm outta here! 😅
The beginning was alright, but it got increasingly difficult to read. Even though the situation was becoming quite dire, the protagonist remained carefree, occasionally letting loose with some minor incidents. It was really padded out. I've subscribed to all of it, and I just can't take it anymore.
A celestial being and a mysterious giant tortoise produce a golden tortoise with the best bloodline, both born over twenty years ago, and it's still only at the Qi Refining stage? Are you kidding me? With this setting, what's the point of that bloodline? No matter how powerful it is, it still has to cultivate step by step from the mortal realm. All things are born equal, right?
Chapter 51 is amazing! The protagonist, a Golden Core cultivator, is accompanied by a Foundation Establishment spirit beast, and he's slaughtering Nascent Soul cultivators from top-tier immortal sects.
The biggest flaw in this book is the two chickens, Xiaorou and Xiaoxue. They clearly had better options, but they insisted on going after the chickens.
It's alright to read, but the plot becomes less interesting when the family members are all a burden. I know that family ties are important sometimes, but it's just ridiculous when the protagonist drives the plot forward by having his family members fall into crisis.
