I feel isolated even before I've practiced much. "Everyday Family" is boring, especially with the surname Fan. It's all melodramatic plot points. For immortals, for those at the Foundation Establishment stage, Aren't those below all ants? Why distinguish between royalty and commoners? For immortals, aren't the talents of mortals even more extraordinary?
Here's a suggestion for the author: too much of a good thing can be bad. Don't always have bystanders or villains mindlessly belittling and targeting the protagonist, only for the protagonist to then act all high and mighty and get their revenge. Overusing this formula gets tiresome and lowers the overall quality of your work.
Could you please give the protagonist some time to grow, or just skip the growth phase and make him invincible from the start? Putting the protagonist in opposition to powerful families from the very beginning is like throwing an egg against a rock—it's incredibly stupid. The writing is good, and the setting is thoughtful and unique.
First: In this ancient cultivation novel, the author uses "ba ma" (爸妈) to refer to the parents instead of "die niang" (爹娘), which is jarring (although it's possible that "ba ma" and "ma" were used to referring to parents in ancient times, readers are used to the ancient setting and should use "die niang," but some authors like to make themselves stand out, which is actually a form of poisoning…
This author really courted disaster, actually using his own book as a sacrificial offering for another author. 🤫
I felt it was incredibly addictive even before I started watching it.
This setting is strange. They've all cultivated immortality, why compare themselves based on their mortal identities? What's the point? The path to immortality begins with a struggle for supremacy. How can someone so concerned with their past identity possibly succeed in cultivating immortality?
If we really want to block the cultivation paths of those at the bottom, the simplest way is to simply prevent those outside of aristocratic families from cultivating. The protagonist can't even get started. The plot is full of contradictions.
While it's visually appealing, the social structure is illogical. Such a vast and ever-widening social divide could only exist in a closed environment free from external threats. Yet, the book features a demon kingdom irreconcilably opposed to humanity! Furthermore, it doesn't conform to the laws of biological evolution.
Pure AI-written essays, mindless opposition.
