Your expectations are too high.
Isn't this what makes a great novel? No major flaws, and the satisfying moments are good too. Does it really have to be a zero-sum game of killing each other?
Are long book titles popular now?
I wouldn't have clicked on this page if you hadn't written the name.
What's wrong with the author? I really like your "Celestial Empire" book and was just thinking of checking out your new book, but why did you suddenly abandon it? That's really bad for your reputation; none of your previous books were abandoned.
The author knows how to cultivate self-restraint; cutting off the genitals will prevent fatigue. 🙄
Overall it's pretty good, but there are some cultivation settings I don't like (such as summoning gods and performing rituals). In my opinion, these are minor practices. For example, if the protagonist's own strength is more powerful than the gods they summon, then what's the point of summoning gods? If you say these settings are for lower-middle-level cultivators, then why should the upper-level immortals serve these ants?
Writing bitter, uninspired pieces will never pay well. No matter how insightful they are, it won't change anything. "Refreshing" novels have a future. Even mindless stories can make money.
I thought the protagonist had transmigrated into an evil spirit and would become even more bizarre after cultivating immortality, but it turns out to be a story about transmigrating to a world infested with evil spirits to cultivate immortality. I came for the title, but I'm a bit disappointed. I don't think there are any books on Qidian where the protagonist is strange and then becomes even stranger after cultivating, right? Wouldn't this kind of theme be more appealing to readers?
The Celestial Officials of the Celestial Dynasty is so good! You could write another book about it!
The author's talent has waned; he can no longer write with the literary flair of a celestial official of the Heavenly Dynasty.
No, I checked my bookshelf and it seems like so many L5 authors have abandoned their works lately?
