Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 39 Discussion

  • #1
One of the most competently written story I've read so far. Unlike other xianxia authors Zero Destiny shows his comprehension of actual interpersonal relationships and motivations. As a result any hints of romance actually make sense and reflects reality where people don't just fall in love because the plot calls for it. In fact so far there isn't any actual romance, only the beginnings of what could be.

The characters in this story are all very understandable and fleshed out. The main character in particular is very comprehensive in his motivations and goals as well as his bottom line in regarding those goals. It's a slower pace but I see it as the author taking his time to set up the story. It's still a little too early for me to judge this story as a whole, but from what I've read (39 chapters) this story has the potential to be one of the classics of xianxia.

Oh and huge props to the translator. This story has bits of classic literature and pretty esoteric explanation of things such as meridians and whatnot but the translator has done a fantastic job. I imagine this is a harder story to translate but they're doing a great job.
