Apocalypse: The Dead Lives

On a pure writing quality, I can say this easily matches translated novels and even exceeds some of them. The world building is good, and the story arcs are innovative (for a xianxia). The power itself is also unique enough that I haven't seen it before.Now the biggest problem by far that I have noticed is the pacing. We're at 400+ chapters but still technically on the first arc (1.5 maybe?). The chapters itself, around the 100 mark became crazy short. Like you could fit 2/3 of these into a normal chapter. So these 400 are the equivalent of perhaps 150 normal chapters length wise. The actual plot is probably around 100? Combined with the general slow pacing its incredibly frustrating to read, and if it weren't for the general quality, I would have dropped this a while ago. Honestly would prefer author combines chapters and reduces cliffs. Defintely a book you would need to stockpile.That being said, this is still head and shoulders above most of the other originals, especially the drivel that are high ranked but chock full of plotholes and juvenile characters (the characterisation, not the actual age). The MC is naive but a quick learner (understandable considering his peasant background), isn't forced into idiotic actions. The general annoying xianxia cliches are minimized and characters other than the MC have more than 2 dimensions. Overall a definitly good read compared to the others on this site, but not amazing with serious pacing/length issues. So on this site, this is worth 5 stars, but on novelupdates and outside, probably 4. Recommend stockpiling between reads.

I got to chapter 17, and will just say that I'm confused. I understand the general plot, but everything feels jumbled together with no proper flow. the relationship between MC and the succubus doesn't even make sense to me.Hopefully the book gets better, but as of now I rate it mid to low mid.

Amazing book, Yuki’s background Is unique to me, where as Tristina’s isn’t the most unique as the book Forgotten Princess is also the same but the book just has such a deep background and also supports those who are apart of pride month (don’t know how to address the people that are out of norm if we compare too the past) i think this is now my favorite book other that cultivation online.

i love this story! full of suspense and gives me the chills from just reading about the characters in them and what they are about to face. Thank you for writing this, Author! More chapters please! ^_^

"Okay, now whose next?" Juda asked, taking a fighters stance, his hands raised and poised for the onslaught.

I just go to where Sis Chloe at and there I finally saw what Mom was trying to point out.

Bakudō #39, Enkōsen, the original protective shield, and the Bakudō #58, Kakushitsuijaku, used to sense enemy Reiatsu and track the enemy.

The audience was stunned with this progress. Well not on seeing the lovey-dovey act but the rare smile on Huan Yu Yan's face drew their attention.
