Immortals Who Live Forever

There's no change, it's stagnant like a pool of still water. It's an ideal world, but unrealistic. The path of immortality values ​​personal gain, with unlimited, uncontested resources. There's no external pressure, no internal competition. It's all about destiny, but even the protagonist can determine their destiny—isn't that still "my fate is in my own hands"?

Holy crap, the bandit leader Hua Shifu is writing a fantasy novel! 😰😰😰

Well, I couldn't even finish the first chapter. There are no river gods or mountain gods in the cultivation world because divine positions require imperial decree from the Heavenly Court. This makes no sense!

They've taken the top spot in the comments section! I just want to ask, who else can do that?

After reading over ten chapters, something felt off. It turns out the author's word choice and sentence structure don't feel like writing; they sound like speaking. The defining characteristic is the lack of rhetoric and formal language. And why break a line after every sentence or even half a sentence? For example, this passage below could be contained within a single paragraph. The author's approach feels quite awkward. What do you all think?

Don't read this guy's novels; the plot is ridiculously awkward, and he's an old eunuch. He gets furious whenever you mention the awkwardness of the plot.

I hope the new book will be as ruthless and decisive as the old one.

It perfectly matches my aesthetic, so I ordered the whole thing. It's a welcome respite from today's restless world. It lacks the fighting and killing typical of traditional fantasy novels, which is rare and precious. It reminds me of the classic tale of the chess player. This is exactly the kind of fantasy novel I envision.

The early part was good, but after the introduction of the lower realm setting, the protagonist became inexplicably weird. That stupid, ridiculous ability to manipulate the law made the protagonist practically inhuman. He even claimed that evil beings couldn't be killed, dragging himself from the Eight Desolations to the Five Continents and ignoring everything else.

What I find interesting about this type of fantasy novel is its exploration of the bizarre and fantastical world of cultivation, revealing new worldviews and settings. Most mainstream novels these days feel like game-like variations, their core being nothing more than leveling up and running dungeons.
