Surprisingly Decent Mix of Slice-of-Life and Cultivation
The author tries to cram multiple genres — slice-of-life, cultivation, comedy — and it turns out quite decent. Nothing extraordinary, but it's a chill read if you're looking for something light and not too serious.
Real rating: 3/5, but since it's the best I've read in a while, giving it a 4/5.
It's a decent novel and good enough for passing time. However, the ending felt extremely rushed, and with only 384 chapters, the story had much more potential. It could have been developed better.
Started Good, promising, But didn't explored the professional system properly, Subsequent advance After Pirate King(lvl4) it started going wrong for next promotions, and character development of mc was not good, just for confirmation of some info he massacred the millions of people, yes author wanted to show mc as anti hero type, but why previously mc is made to have bottom line.
Made the Gu system power shit to suit the MC, apart from a Natal gu worm, other gu worms they are powerfull if taken as Natal gu otherwise it's very less powerfull, to suit the MC having multiple Natal gu, you can keep more Natal gus but don't lessen the value of gus if they are not taken as Natal Gu. So if you are using a model or developing model of power system from existing one then please don't f*** it.
In the later part, it's the same old circus — China is the almighty, compassionate, perfect country, and every other nation is a villain plotting 24/7 to drag it down. Apparently, the entire failure of humanity rests on everyone except China. Every Chinese general and character is some self-sacrificing saint, while everyone else is a joke, a villain, or plain useless.
To all Chinese authors: how deep is the brainwashing? In almost every so-called urban novel, China (or "Xia" or "Dragon Country" or whatever cringe name you give it) magically has a king and royal family. Seriously, is your brain so soaked in propaganda that you think you’re still living under an emperor today?
And the power scaling? Don’t even get me started. At the start of the novel, it's said that around 1000 points of power equals a 9-star strength. Cool. But five minutes later? Different. No unified system, no internal consistency — just whatever the author vaguely remembers at that moment.
It’s supposed to be a beast store type novel, right? Not a random-fighting flex-fest? Yet one chapter shows the general helping the MC (both being at the same power level), and the next chapter? The same general and all other city bigshots are lining up outside the MC’s shop like some desperate fanboys. At the same damn power level!
The novel is just full-blown brain-dead — no logic, no continuity, no sense of progression. If you’re writing a beast store story, then actually build the damn store, develop it properly, not throw random fights and power levels around like confetti.
