It's absurd to devote so much space to emphasizing the requirement of faith in deities. How is loyalty to one's family defined? Does emotional infidelity count? In ancient times, people had multiple wives and concubines; did that count as loyalty? Is loyalty enough to satisfy just one condition, or does it require satisfying all conditions?
It feels very strange. The protagonist, who is a religious figure who has become a god, constantly emphasizes the power and significance of clan, and still follows the path of incense offerings. While worshipping himself, he also makes believers worship their clan, which just reduces the amount of incense offerings.
Chapter 16 is G. Trying to talk about filial piety and loyalty with an Afghan is like talking about bread with a German—it's too abstract.
I just don't understand how many words you wrote, and the plot inexplicably jumps from a small-town priest to an important figure that even major world powers are begging to intervene in. But the protagonist's abilities haven't improved at all; he relies entirely on his talkativeness and borrowing power to intimidate others.
The part about bestowing titles upon the Earth God was really off-putting. Now, America is facing a national crisis and needs help, but the protagonist turns it into a business negotiation, even giving away five slots – it's infuriating. The novel's highlight is its self-proclaimed godhood, even in the early episodes.
The last few chapters I've written have been rather dull. The protagonist seems cautious, but he actually gives me a sense of arrogance. What gives him the right to mistake someone for someone else? Is it because he's a loser? It couldn't possibly be Yang Jian. That's fine, we should respect the author's arrangements.
...20 Chapters, I read 20 chapters. The same thing is repeated at least three times! The protagonist thinks/says it once, a character thinks it again, and then it's mentioned again in the main text... Dude, all 20 chapters are like this! Even if the beginning is free, you can't do this! Is this padding? I think it's just a few words dropped into the filler... I really can't stand it...
The idea is good, but your writing logic makes the protagonist seem like a cowardly fool...
I've read seven chapters. The plot is quite interesting, and the scenes are well-crafted, but there's just too much filler. It's not just padding; it's genuinely a lot of rambling. Is this how you usually talk, author?
It's so verbose, almost all of it is nonsense. A story that should be 20 chapters can be condensed into one or two chapters, and it's still not hard to explain. The whole thing is just popular science, and it even oversteps its authority to bestow titles. What did you get that you can bestow titles on others? You've got some big titles, huh?
