The previous writing on martial arts training was okay. Later, the more the protagonist becomes immortal, the stupider his brain becomes. There is no self-knowledge. And I have no idea what my strengths are. A monk in the middle stage of Qi refining plans a top-notch technique using a powerful golden elixir. What do you think? If you notice something is wrong in Tianbao Tower, you should stop immediately and hit the south wall. An immortal species. The most indispensable thing is time. And it's still five spiritual roots. If you encounter any good technique, just practice it. When you have foundation building or golden elixir, and you are planning to customize the technique, wouldn't it be much simpler? He just wants to gain benefits far beyond his ability when he is weak. Then the author forcibly gives away treasures later. All kinds of coincidences. Just to deliver this specially customized technique to the protagonist. Don't you think the readers are fools? Why don't you write like this? Just write about the Lord of the World looking for a successor, and it's over if you happen to meet the protagonist. Directly initiated by the Lord of the World, the entire book is completed. The most taboo thing is for the protagonist to have his wishes come true. Like the protagonist's situation. Poor qualifications. It can only be overcome by time. If you have thick earth skills, practice the back earth skills, and if you have the foundation building skills, practice the foundation building skills. Isn't it just a day job to rebuild? When you are strong, just go to a place with thin spiritual energy. Isn't it easy to spend decades to rebuild your strength? And it can also prepare a strong back-up for yourself. Moreover, I feel very confused about the fact that the main character wants to master all the various arts of cultivation and practice all the spells. There is plenty of time, but it also needs to be used effectively. For spells, just find the ones that are difficult to practice but are powerful. If you want to cultivate tens of billions, look for something that doesn't cost too much resources. Like refining elixirs and refining weapons, don't think about it. This is not a job that the protagonist in the early stage can only do if he is poor. It's not like you have an immortal mansion. You have no power, so where can you get the spiritual grass to make elixirs and weapons for you? Just play talismans, which are easy to learn but difficult to master, or formations, which are difficult to learn and master, and are time-consuming and labor-intensive. That's what suits the protagonist. Can fully bring out the protagonist's strengths. I don't understand what the protagonist is doing after cultivating immortality? Like a headless fly.
Reading the whole story gives me a smooth flow of pleasure. The plot does not have too many twists and turns, such as deliberately stirring up trouble. Basically everything just happens naturally, so the characters' IQs are basically online, and they don't deliberately look for things to do because of the plot. It's very comfortable to read and you can get involved. Hope it will continue.
I wrote some of my feelings after seeing Bai80zhang. 1: The identity of the time traveler is just an identity. The original knowledge is really useless 2: After practicing martial arts for so long, Xiu Xian simply changed all the panels and it cannot be combined. 3: What is the Immortal Stream? Ordinary people can only use their limited lives to pursue infinite knowledge, but after immortality, they will use their infinite lives to pursue infinite knowledge. The world is like that, there must be something to figure out, what should I say about experiencing this thing. 3: Martial arts also stimulate the body to produce qi, or even true qi. Similar things are also running in the body, but there is a high level and a low level. The high level can also drive external spiritual energy and change the quality of destructive power. So why can't martial arts be performed with spiritual energy? The result is that the martial arts are directly spent by the protagonist himself 4: As for the issue of experience, didn't the protagonist also create the martial arts by himself? Since they are all running in the body, but the energy has changed, the protagonist has no idea at all. 5: Let's not talk about the knowledge of the world of cultivating immortals Let's just say that our 5,000-year civilization has produced various classic literature, especially Taoism and other works. The descriptions in all aspects can be logically perfect, including descriptions of some basics Including various imaginative inspirations, the world of cultivating immortals, and various exercises must also correspond to the world. The internal logic of the world, such as spiritual roots. If nothing else, I, an ordinary person who has read online articles for more than ten years, can think of several training systems and some knowledge about the nature of the world. When it comes to the protagonist, there is no description. The time traveler is just a time traveler. There is no collision and no eye-catching ideas. The protagonist has no core attraction. Especially online articles,
I ordered four chapters and then said goodbye😅The protagonist of Wulinggen was a bad novel a few years ago. It is assumed that the Five Spiritual Roots are the weakest and the number of people who possess them is very small. Then the predecessor of the Five Spiritual Roots has a great man who wants to use his inherited skills to follow him. This is even worse. In the end, a group of people added a foundation building to surround a fourth-level Qi practitioner and acted in Bengbu for more than ten years.
It can be seen that the author has his own ideas in the martial arts training chapter, but when it comes to the chapter of cultivating immortals, it becomes a routine. When I saw the protagonist Changsheng practicing martial arts and dormant for many years, I thought it would be the path of cultivating immortals through martial arts, but it turned out to be the same as the spiritual root. Seeing that the protagonist has been dormant for decades looking for immortals, readers take it for granted that the protagonist has searched the entire map. However, it turns out that the place the protagonist is in is only a small country among hundreds of countries, and it is also a desert for cultivating immortals. The key is that there is no explanation in the previous article. Only the protagonist of the co-author realizes that he is just wandering around in a small place after he obtains the immortal cultivation technique. Is this reasonable? Considering that the protagonist is a time traveler, it is hard to imagine a person who has been looking for something in the bedroom for decades but never thought of going to the living room to take a look. Maybe it is because the author closed the bedroom door.
Which great god are you? The writing style is so sophisticated. The lines are very comfortable. The world view is perfect. The logic is rigorous. Neither arrogant nor impatient. Fairy spirit. Full of master style.
. . . . The current literature on cultivating immortals is becoming more and more rigid. Let's talk about this book. Now that you have become immortal, instead of placing your hope in misty legends, it is better to create your own system and continue the path of martial arts. As a time traveler, your energy and blood are like a dragon, and you have three thousand miles of energy and blood, such as wolf smoke and other high martial arts. Xianwu always knows that, right? As a result, I insist on sticking to the spiritual root cultivation system that is almost out of date and is no longer popular. Isn't this stupid? Most readers are already tired of spiritual roots and the like. The article states that the protagonist has a Jingyuan plug-in, which is more suitable for blood martial arts and vitality martial arts. After all, he has accumulated previous martial arts, compared to the unfamiliar immortal way. Moreover, cultivating immortality is the goal, to become an immortal immortal, it is not a means. Through martial arts, Qi training, magic, technology, etc., You can become an immortal, that is, an immortal who is immortal and immortal. The protagonist is immortal but not immortal. You can tailor a system for the protagonist. Besides, has your essence talent been fully developed? In the early stage of searching for immortals, I had no idea about my talent development. I only knew about it but didn't know why. After so many years, I only compiled one martial arts secret book. Do you know whether your essence is a closed loop circle or an infinite essence? You can't write a good novel if you just follow the script and follow the rules. There were also many reactions from readers. That's all.
I can't read books anymore. . All the books in this book are so powerful against theft.
One Foundation Establishment Pill costs 50,000 or 60,000 spirit stones. What does the author think? You, a top-level first-level Talisman Master and Formation Master, have only earned more than 10,000 spirit stones in twenty years. This is what the protagonist saves only by making money and not spending it. If other first-level top Talisman Masters and Formation Masters had to spend money to buy elixirs and other training materials, they might not be able to save 10,000 spirit stones in thirty years, and their life span during the Qi training period would only be about 120 years. Cultivation and practicing the various arts of cultivating immortals does not require a lot of time, if one considers the author's price and the protagonist's cultivation speed. I put my words down here, people below Tianlinggen are not worthy of foundation building.
The author specifically describes a top-level Five Spiritual Root scripture and then offers a reward at the end. He obviously prepared an outline plot, but he added superfluous information. The simple plot made the logic collapse in pursuit of excitement, which is really unwise. From the protagonist's step-by-step trial and acquisition of the true scripture, and suddenly awakening to the accusation, and then desperately escaping, the plot seems exciting, right? So, why do so many powerful forces, including Foundation Establishment, have to accompany the protagonist for so long? You must know that in the world of immortal cultivation where the jungle is strong and the strong prey on the weak, no matter whether it is through coercion or inducement, once again pretending that you have no intention of handing the scripture to the protagonist, are you still afraid that the protagonist will not practice the scripture? The protagonist is only in the middle of Qi training, how can He De deserve to have so many people supporting him in acting? Is he worthy? The pursuit of storytelling rather than logic is full of loopholes. It is not very influential in the first place, and it is uncomfortable to put it together. For example, the five spirit roots are said to be the best, but they are rare, and then find a five spirit roots and directly pay 10,000 spirit stones, and even agree to other conditions. Again, is he worthy? Normal people must know that there is a problem with this, so why do it? Slightly lowering the conditions makes it more natural. Then, when the bounty appears, the protagonist knows that there is a problem, and he also knows that he has missed the bottom before, and still waits for the so-called true scripture. Later, the author said that he was obsessed with foundation building, or the same sentence, where is the match in the middle stage of Qi training? Is it difficult to just tie him up and ask him to practice? Superfluous! ! ! According to common sense, it is normal to escape in the middle of being kidnapped. The result is that under the watchful eye of the Foundation Establishment, you can forcefully escape through the ground with the Foundation Establishment Formation. Isn't it exciting? So is the Foundation Establishment Array in Fangshi too useless? It can be calculated directly in the middle stage of Qi training. Of course, I also accept the settings. Then the Foundation Establishment will arrive in seconds, and the Foundation Establishment will keep an eye on him 24 hours a day? Or is it an old saying? Match? It's true that I put poison on the shelves. Originally, the previous writings were probably okay. Maybe the author suddenly wanted to do something exciting. Gou Daoliu really should read the novels of Wen Chao Gong. It's not about who is higher or lower. It's mainly about the plot setting. Maybe Wen Chao Gong is not particularly exciting or exciting, but you can always see the continuous flow. It is smooth and refreshing, and the flow is long. I was shocked when I wrote this book. The key is that the connection is not good. It is better to pass it over in a smooth way, find something wrong, and run away quickly, instead of writing a bunch of forces and foundation building to accompany you to act, and then forcefully run away. It is wonderful, and the logic is gone
