Journey to the West: The True Lord Who Slays Karma

Overall, it's alright, and the writing is quite good, much better than those simplistic, copycat novels like "Black Myth." But a few plot holes were too damaging. And indeed, they didn't use the protagonist's supposed sincerity as a selling point. Even the protagonist's early acts of doing good deeds and being worshipped were downplayed.

There are very few good Journey to the West fanfiction these days. Most of them are still in the same old gangster genre. Very few are faithful to the original Journey to the West setting. They bring all sorts of settings into Journey to the West, making very few readable Journey to the West fanfictions. For example, Nezha and Erlang Shen are the main characters. Other Journey to the West fanfictions are just labeled as traitors. Sigh.

First of all, this book is very well written, both in terms of style and other aspects. However, it feels like the author has a particular fondness for torturing the protagonist; they seem to have a sadomasochistic tendency. From the beginning until now, so many chapters in, the protagonist is either suppressed, killed, or suffers amnesia after being killed. I really hate this trope.

Given the protagonist's habit of killing anyone he hurts, shouldn't the protagonist have killed the Bull Demon King? In the original novel, even Red Boy complained that the Bull Demon King lived by eating people and committed numerous evil deeds.

Liu Chenxiang broke into the Heavenly Court, stole the elixir and the jade axe, publicly defied the law, and confronted the Three Officials with weapons. Can he just walk away like that? Sun Wukong, holding a high position, not only fails to encourage people to do good but also instigates Liu Chenxiang to commit crimes and helps him escape the law. Can he really pretend not to see this?

Author, please change the protagonist's identity card. Height 220cm and weight 120kg, this looks like a stick insect that has become a spirit 🤤.

In the author's notes, in the relevant section, the author was terrified and asked for a leave of absence, which was placed at the very top.

I was experiencing a reading slump and stumbled upon a book that was never finished. I tried my best to read it, but couldn't finish it. I then realized that even Qidian (a popular online literature platform) has so many abandoned books.

After reading nearly 200 chapters, I'm feeling increasingly tired, so I'll just say a few words. This book is indeed a good one. In terms of sophistication, writing style, ideas, and overall artistic merit, it's top-tier according to the data from Qidian.com. However, as a light novel, the more I read, the less suitable it seems. Nothing else, just one thing: it's too bland.

This guy looks impressive, but upon closer inspection, he's just so-so and can't stand up to scrutiny. First, let's talk about the ginseng fruit tree. Although the ginseng fruit tree is famous, its efficacy is far inferior to that of the peach tree, which monkeys have grown tired of eating. The pretentiousness doesn't hold up to scrutiny; it's all hype.
