I, Qiu Chuji

The protagonist seems to be constantly looking for shortcuts. Even with the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, the Qi Source Flow, and the Zhouxu Six-Wandering Skill, he doesn't seem to be practicing to reach the pinnacle of martial arts. Instead, he's obsessed with quick-fix methods like the Absorption Technique and the Black Heaven Skill.

They come up with a bunch of settings that go against the grain, only thinking about how to justify themselves, which drives away other viewers. They're trying to become less famous before they even achieve any real success.

The first few chapters felt ridiculous. With cheat codes and powerful techniques, he could go anywhere in the world, so why is he doing manual labor for others? And why is this transmigrator so fixated on becoming Wang Chongyang's disciple?

Wow, the first chapter completely shut me down! The Quanzhen Taoist Qiu Chuji, fighting for better conditions for laborers, got ambushed and killed five days later, and then the protagonist transmigrated and came back to life! I don't even know how to express my disbelief! I couldn't even read this without thinking!

Judging from the titles of the books published in the last two years, they don't even make one want to click on them. Sigh, it's not that the writing is bad, but the scope is getting smaller and smaller. When will that feeling of "all things under the frosty sky compete freely" and "the world is vast and I can roam freely" return?

Waste paper has returned to a familiar track. There's really no need to force an innovative worldview. People already have the pressure of making a living. Many big names only stop writing fanfiction and start writing their own original books after they've secured their basic needs. As for my opinion on this book, putting aside the writing style, it's still a solid piece of writing.

There are some parts of this book that I find unacceptable. Choosing Qiu Chuji as the protagonist made me think it would be different, but it starts with Qiu Chuji before he even became a disciple. Honestly, choosing a beggar as the protagonist wouldn't make much difference. Furthermore, the time travel begins with Qiu Chuji being killed.

The first chapter is enough to make you want to quit. You just transmigrated and are being treated like a corpse, about to be buried. You're bound hand and foot and can't move, and you're threatening two young Taoist disciples? You think they won't survive if you don't help them? If you're hot-tempered, you'll be buried alive. Anyway, in the eyes of those above, you're just a private individual.

To be honest, it feels like Waste Paper was born at the wrong time. If we call Unlimited Myth, Mythical Primal Species, and even Mythical Martial Arts the Mythical Trilogy, each book would still be considered imaginative and impressive even today. The writing and plot are both excellent. Even "Projection of the Heavens" is a small tribute to the classics.

It has a bit of that Unlimited Mythology vibe from back then.
