Background: FL is the biggest boss of the Underworld. She has an overflowing life energy that can grow, age and destroy anything in seconds, so she uses the death energy in the Underworld to keep it in check.Plot Setup: The FL transmigrates into a weak miss in a new xianxia continent. Unfortunately, strength is paramount, might is right, and the original FL has no spiritual energy for cultivation and is too weak to train in martial arts. As a result, the original FL is bullied to death and the powerful FL transmigrates into her body.What I like: The FL has heart - she is good to anyone who is good to her. The contrast is true too - she is fatal to anyone who tries to kill her. There's a big mystery around her identity, and there is scheming and power factions around the 4 main empires of the new continent she is in. Her family and the ML are sweet.Rating: So far, it's a 5 star read for me. It's rare to find an engrossing, xianxia novel starring a female lead. I'll update my review when I finish the translator's available chapters and the remaining chapters in the novel by MTL.Update: I stopped MTL reading at chapter 1000. I liked the novel at first because of the OP FL and her story. However, the novel became Spoiler
too focused on everyone else's secret identity/hidden genetic powers/missing legendary parent/fake-illusion-lower-exile world vs. True-god-higher world, and the writing style/dialogue/descriptions were not interesting enough. I love the OP FL, but she was more like a deux ex machina than the initial protagonist with thoughts and struggles. I can't tell the legendary ghost/demon/god/spirit/etc. Tribes apart, much less the multitude of older generation characters and their stories.
