Daoist Master of Qing Xuan

its a certain drop if this novel turns out to be a harem type... why cant the males just choose one female companion? is that so hard? Greed cant be fulfilled until death comes..

Please I don't want the bull that is a harem.
Just be a loyal guy for god's sake.

No cringe, please

WTF did I just write
Why do I feel so retarded now?
Why am I writing my thoughts out?
Why did I write this review even though I have yet to read a single chapter of this book?
Even I don't know why.

Just know that 10 other reviewers haven't read this yet ,so I feel less retarded now.


SPONGEBOB IS DA BEST!
SPONGEBOB IS GAY!
I just farted

So this is  another reincarnation story? Don't get me wrong, i really like reincarnation stories especially when the mc use/apply knowledge from his past life to his current one. As long as charactee development is done well then i will add this to my library.


On a side note, at first i read the title as Daoist Masturbator so i was shocked and did a double take. This is another reason i might add this to my library

.

SOOOO many of the beautiful literary and religious nuances are lost in translation. (More so than normal.) To the point that I want to stab somebody. If you are going to throw around a billion pinyin terms, give the readers something to connect it to, otherwise it is a burden. Right now, as this is translated, it is completely burdensome.

If you are going to reference poems, give us the footnotes so we can read the original/poet's other works. (Yes, I am that dork. Sue me.)

The religious themes of Daoism vs Buddhism to defy the heavens are very strong and in this story would have been argued clearly through classical texts and philosophical thoughts. If I haven't read many of the original texts that I have seen referenced here, I would have been 100% lost.

So... Sorry, but consider this my farewell.

Action packed fights, intense training scenes, and interesting cultivation methods, are all things you won't find in this story. The translation itself is a slog to read through, partially due to the overly flowery language and content of the source material.  So far 47 ch in, there has been many more pgs dedicated to poetry that doesn't translate well, or at least hasn't been, than pgs of fighting, cultivating, and learning combined.  I feel like author is trying to show off how cultured he is.  The fights are very bland as far as I can interpret from the confusing translation.  Mc suddenly get good at techniques without any on screen training or exploration of the technique itself.  This does have some potential, Mc is interestingat least, but potential was squandered by poor translating and writing.

I've taken an interest to this coz of that synopsis. Hope it stays true to the synopsis and is a "discovering amazing things in this vast world and trying to understand the Dao" type of story.
But if it derails into a typical "you dare look at my girl,....ok then DIE!!" or some power cultivating without any logic or mindless slaughtering of ancient clans just because of a useless "young master" offending the MC then...........I would be disappointed...
