    An amazing story from start to finish. Yes there is a translation issue especially halfway through but the overall plot is worth it.

    You will find it easier to understand if you have read stories related to chinese mythology

    Story is of a similar concept to - my senior brother is too stable, another novel suferring from translation issues

    Alternate Story Title: Worthy of Respect in One Age

    OH YEAH, FINALLY A NOVEL I KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT TO MAKE A PROPER REVIEW ABOUT!

    Sorry, got a little excited. So yeah, I can state the nice stuff about this story.
    I am describing ch.1 which you can find on the NU link, so I don't think this needs a spoiler.

    This novel starts with the MC transmigrating without a gaining the body's memories, ending up a monk in Shaolin Temple and using his wits to not get exposed and exorcised. His body has a backstory he knows nothing of, and returning back to his family will get him exposed. The story starts in such a 'interesting' situation where MC has to use his IQ from the start, and I promise it just gets better.

    Initially the world seems to be in a wuxia setting, though it is slowly revealed to be more. But I'll reveal one more thing: The 'Samsara' is introduced quite early!
    ...OK, now I really can't say more without spoilers.

    As for the TL, I'll expect good things. Even though not one chapter is up, I'll give props to the translator for rewriting Title and Synopsis to appeal to English readers. The original synopsis on NU seems a bit vague on first sight.
    Can't say anything further, as this novel has no TLed chapters here.

    So there it is, this is a nice novel and I hope you'll give Energy Stones to it.

    ...Also, one last interesting thing. Do you like the author, 'Plagiarist', the writer of Carefree Path of Dreams and sequel to Warlock of the Magus World? The novel preceding Carefree Path of Dreams, Overgod Ascension was inspired/ plagiarized from this novel. Overgod Ascension is also known as a loose sequel to Warlock of the Magus World.

    CHECK THIS OUT BEFORE READING!!

    Translation quality for the first 778 chapters is a 3 out of 5.  It's good enough but can be hard to understand at points.  After 778, 0 out of 5, awful.  It's incredible to me that a large company like QI would publish a translation that is essentially a slightly  cleaned up machine translation.  Names of moves, places, and people suddenly change.  That combined with the overall awful translation makes one wonder if they are even reading the same novel.

    STAY AWAY unless and until the translation is fixed; otherwise, it's not worth it even when considering the quality of the story.

    Quite so. You will have two challenges though. First is to get into it initially because there will be no real introduction to the world, cultivation system or special lingo. Second is translation issues which appear halfway through. Good luck!

    Why do all protagonists have an obsession with deafeating Buddah😂 I mean I get demons since demons are meant to be the bad guys but on a more serious note this looks like an interesting novel.

    Machine translation from chapter 777. A good novel, but it's impossible to read further. :(
