Engaging read so far. As another reviewer said, it has similarities to Ze Tian Ji and Immortal Devil Transformation, it also reminds me a lot of Nightfall. The dialogue is good and the characters have solid reasons for acting the way they do, that said, it doesn't have the same literary flair as the other novels mentioned above, though this does make it an easier read.The MC is mysterious and badass, though, still has embarrassing moments, which is refreshing. He has no talent for the immortal path, so is forced to take the route of a martial cultivator to accomplish his goals (whatever they are).Equally refreshing is how this (so far) is a cultivation story grounded in the mortal world, away from the various immortal sects. Unlike other novels, where mundane and immortal are firmly separated, these sects are a blight on the Great Liang Dynasty, treating the country and its people as ants.Naturally, MC has clashed with the sects, that said, however, the MC has unknown origins and unclear motivations meaning Great Liang may not necessarily be a sworn ally either.I'm looking forward to reading more, and would definitely recommend it.
