The Art of Dominating Heaven and Earth

This was the first novel I read back then. I still remember it to this day

Chapter One, Deadly Poison. A failed attempt to imitate a tiger, resulting in a dog-like mess. Numerous logical fallacies. 1. Wudang was forced into this situation because it was a powerful and influential force. The protagonist's family, however, was merely one-sixth of the city lords in a small, insignificant place. This is completely illogical.

This is the first novel I've ever read.

Almost ten years have passed in the blink of an eye; the author's writing back then was already quite good.

It's such an old novel; I regret that the protagonist didn't marry his cousin.

This book is truly bizarre, written in the most outrageous and utterly toxic way possible. The cultivation technique is the overused Devouring Technique, a reskinned version of Jin Yong's Northern Darkness Divine Art from decades ago. The opening scene shamelessly licks the boots of his father's killer, claiming it's to improve his martial arts.

It's very well written. I really like this book.

If they're so powerful, why not just dig a tunnel underground? Why bother with vultures? They've cultivated such high skills but can't use them; they're just like idiots, annoying and inconsiderate. What's the point of digging a tunnel? Author, have you made all these characters stupid? When they're fighting, the earth is shattering; digging a tunnel is that difficult?

I watched it around the time I was a newbie, and it was so much fun watching it back then! 233 😌

The first chapter was incredibly toxic; I couldn't even finish reading it, the plot was too clichéd.
