Entertaining enough, intricate world building but somewhat episodic.This novel is better than most but can't hold a candle to the really good ones, like legendary masters wife.The world building is good and the story is well planned out. The characters are likable. The main characters are fleshed out nicely but lots of the side character are rather 2d.Romance is a real slow burn and not the main point in this story, but it is OK. It's still entertaining.The thing that I dislike is the episodic story.... I know there need to be different arcs but I find it kind of annoying if one arc emphasizes on pill refining and then they switch to formations and the things happen and you will not read anything about this for eternity. While the storyline itself was well planned out, I feel that this meeting of skills throughout the story was lacking. It felt a bit like checking a todo list.If you like cultivation novels, you should read this at least once. You won't get bored and have enough action. The writing is ok and the translation is pretty good.
