Rational, Feel-Good, Dark
Different strokes for different folks. Dark fantasy, dark xianxia, all kinds of dark stories. I only like novels with no female lead or just one female lead. So many books have disappeared.

It's very well written, with that feel of folk tales and legends. If you write more, you can help promote the book on forums.
One could hope that the author will create a completely new mythological serpent. Currently, the popular top-tier dragons and serpents are limited to a few types, such as the Candle Dragon or the World Serpent.
Is Shennong still alive? Can he transform into a human? Is there a female lead?
Having finished the current chapters, I'm already discouraged. The protagonist initially claims to be inherently cold-hearted, then transforms into a snake—speechless—and later becomes humane. To me, then there's no difference between him and a human. If he becomes as powerful as the Jade Emperor later on, the world won't be any better.
This description... A 21-year-old snake, 1 meter long? 1 Meter thick? This level of expression...
The author is brave to write about an indigenous protagonist.
I suggest the author look at the encyclopedia entry for common snakes, otherwise the early parts are too illogical (a 21-year-old snake that is 1 meter long).
It's still great so far, but I hope they don't go for the dragon transformation trope; it's too old-fashioned and boring. If they're going to choose a transformation path, Nuwa and Tengshe are good examples. If there's no clear direction, the protagonist following their own path is also fine.
There's no need for any so-called "feel-good moments"; the story and the emotions are handled so well.
This guy is really something else; he writes well across all genres, but he has a terrible habit of abandoning his books. I've been following his work since the first one, it's such a shame.
