The Dark Immortal Court

Do you know why so many people said the previous book was tasteless but too good to throw away? It always used the guise of a first-person perspective to write about things from a third-person perspective. The protagonist was like an observer, without joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness, and without any special characteristics, personality, or preferences.

It's so drawn out, it seems like they're cultivating immortality, but then again, they're not; it seems like they're involved in organized crime, but then again, they're playing dirty tricks in the officialdom.

Do time travelers have to have a younger sister?

I wrote this in too much of a rush, and ended up with several storylines: a clay blood guard, a female ghost and a celestial kingdom, a gang, and a family. It's a bit messy.

This book portrays the protagonist as exceptionally shrewd, but whenever he encounters difficulties, he relies on cheat codes to solve them. While seemingly shrewd, he is actually quite careless. For example, when the barbarians attacked the city, he could have simply left earlier to conceal his strength, but instead, he insisted on fighting two Dao Dan Realm experts, completely exposing his true abilities. I really couldn't bear to read it!

It's well-written, but the development is too slow. It's already 650,000 words, and the protagonist is still a minor character. He hasn't even left the beginner's village yet, and he's always struggling to survive, constantly being manipulated and bullied by others. Furthermore, in a world where such great power is bestowed upon oneself, how can the protagonist rebel?

The sense of peacekeeping is too strong. The arrival of the immortal kingdom makes me feel like I wasted the first few hundred chapters. The difference in levels is too great, and I felt no sense of participation. Why do authors nowadays use settings of billions of worlds and infinite planes? Can they even write a proper story? They're only thinking about building the framework, not filling in the plot. It's all just an empty shell with no real story.

The villains in Jian Rujiao's books are all too weak; there's a lack of conflict and satisfying moments. Xuanqingwei is probably the pinnacle.

I've read over a hundred chapters. I feel the author should probably do some advertising or find other authors to do some back-scratching. While I don't know what kind of writing style people prefer, I feel the book should have achieved more than this. Also, the title is just so-so; if I hadn't read *Xuan Qing Wei*, I probably wouldn't have clicked on it.

I think this book has one major flaw: it should have focused on the sword-fighting plot. Instead, it constantly jumps between the Great Sun Cloud Wave's cultivation battles and the sword-fighting intrigue. It's really boring. It would have been better to just focus on the sword-fighting plot.
