The author plans to change the book's title to: Rebooting Mythology, Starting with the Mountain God. The reason is that many people said they didn't know what the Divine Court was, what the Mountain Spirit was, or the Nine Songs mythology. Personally, I think the Nine Songs Mythology is very romantic and is the closest mythology to the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
My thoughts on the current fifty chapters
The writing is alright; so far, aside from typos, there aren't any major problems. I'm too lazy to point them out in the chapters, but I hope the author will pay attention in the future. Because two other books of a similar genre that I followed before were abandoned—"The Old Eunuch of Nanshan" and "The World of Magic"—I was a little hesitant to read this at first.
The Chu mythology is too niche. When most people see Donghuang Taiyi, the first thing that comes to mind is the Demon Emperor, and they don't know much about the stories of the Chu mythology.
Reviews after finishing the latest chapter
Having read over sixty chapters, there aren't any major flaws, and it's a pleasant read. The plot is decent, the fight scene on the ship has a slightly insane feel, and the character development is also quite good. The villains don't seem to lose their minds; overall, they're all fairly intelligent, and there aren't any overly forced or contrived plot twists.
What does "walking in the Divine Court" mean?
Clarification regarding some settings of the power system. Xiang Yuan's destiny is to walk in the divine court, that is, to be the messenger of the gods in the Nine Songs pantheon (from the Mountain Spirit to Taiyi, these nine gods) on earth, acting on behalf of the gods.
Do you guys think we should have a female lead?
The author originally wanted to create a dark female protagonist who was a bit crazy. Later, as I wrote, I deviated from the outline, which is why it's still undecided. Feel free to leave a comment and share your thoughts on the female lead.
Can't a few real people come out and interact with me? Playing alone is so painful 😭😭
Author, have you flown away? Did you get too few subscriptions and become a paid user?! 😥
Does the author intend for the goddess Yao Ji to be the protagonist?
She's the Goddess of Wushan, the daughter of Emperor Yan. I have no problem with her being the female lead; it depends on how the author writes her later. If they're unsure, they can just write her as a supporting character for now.
Yao Ji, the Goddess of Wushan
In the latest chapter, the author mentioned the Goddess of Wushan and Yao Ji's dojo. I'm guessing Yao Ji will come back to life later.
