This is a cultivation novel with a very unique art style. Looking up, there is boundless ambition ❤️; looking down, there is devout worship. I walk in my own world. What do the laughter, anger, joy, and sorrow of others matter to me? I neither cling to this body nor despise it. What is there to cherish in this body? It is the root of endless afflictions. What is there to be weary of in this body, merely a dust mote in the void? Without attachment or aversion, one can truly be a free spirit.
🌿, Do you know how heartbroken I was when my last book was abandoned? It was almost as painful as when "The Great Sage's Tale" was abandoned!!! And now you say you've started a new book? Well, I can understand, life's tough. By the way, where do you live, author? Let's have a drink sometime!
The veteran bookworm said he couldn't understand what was said; it was completely incomprehensible.
You all keep praising how good it is, but I don't find it interesting at all.
The writing is in the top 1%, the logic is a bit chaotic, and the characters' intelligence is rather low. It says the protagonist forgets his past lives in each one, then later says he can slowly recover them through the mist. Having experienced so much joy and sorrow and even becoming an immortal, shouldn't he be even more indifferent to worldly love?
There's a familiar feeling about this. Seeing the author... Turns out it's the old eunuch! 😠
Book review, complaints and thoughts
The writing style is quite flavorful, somewhat reminiscent of that other book. However, there's one question: the book seems to be constantly pretentious, or at least relentlessly on its path to pretentiousness. And it immediately establishes a very high level of pretension through a series of short stories, yet there doesn't seem to be a main plot. How long can such a storytelling format last? Either the author gets tired of pretentiousness, or the reader gets tired of it.
They're supposed to be carefree immortals, but this protagonist is just a prisoner in the eighteenth level of hell. The protagonist possesses boundless magical power, then starves to death while meditating. What the hell?
Pretending to be mysterious or supernatural is utterly absurd. Showing off should be done in moderation.
The only immortal in the world has a very high status, but also a very low-class demeanor. He was even blocked by the royal palace when he tried to kill a minor boss. He is a Qi Refining Immortal.
