After blacking out at a class reunion, Li Yuan awakens in a brutal world reminiscent of ancient China. Famines rage, human life is cheap, and the specter of war looms at every corner. Worse still, the eerie rumors of monsters lurking deep in the forests and things that go bump in the night prove all too real.

Now scraping by as a humble hunter in a remote village, Li Yuan must also watch over a woman entrusted to his care. Although he’s blessed with a mysterious status window, he’s still just a leaf on the wind—easily blown astray by the sweeping storms of change. Join him as he struggles to navigate political upheavals and unforeseen perils, striving to forge his own destiny as history unfolds around him.

Official: Li Yuan crosses over into a martial world where demons and ghosts lie dormant, becoming an ordinary hunter struggling to survive. It’s only after he takes a wife that he discovers a status window. As the stars shift and ages pass, though seas dry and lands change, he remains steadfast and unchanging.

I'm 200~~ chapters in at time of review (yeah I read a little bit ahead :3 )

I love this novel. A lot. The tone of the world is spectacular, I love the balance the author struck between slice of life / the MC working his ass off for his cultivation / preparing for and dealing with ever growing danger in the world.

This is a novel where the MC has a "system" to help him grow. Despite this, he never really feels completely overpowered. He has no high-level master to guide him, and is essentially a country bumpkin who has to break through every single "wall" in his cultivation on his own, without the help of his system, trying to create his own martial arts legacy from scratch.

Anyhoo read this novel it's good

The pace and the setting are both very well done.

You won’t meet your throng of young masters and face slapping tropes, rather a focus on a slow and measured grind balancing being at the helm with never revealing all the cards. The existence of a major faction which can rival cultivators while not at all being as proficient in combat, instead using supernatural resources in a systematic way, is quite novel (to me at least) and adds a bit of curiosity to the way the story will develop.

There are elements which the author could improve on; like the inadvertent harem scene where the main wife/wives can just be forgotten years on end and the actual interaction with the system making MC casually OP feeling very lackluster and unexplored. Combat power is another aspect which has left opportunities on the table to a very large extent. I could mention many small gripes and missed opportunities if really going into the details, but in the end these aspects which are lacking aren’t what you would be looking for when reading this novel.

If you’re looking for a cross between slice of life and cultivation novels, where the setting is cultivation, yet the pace and regular topics are slice of life: this is going to please you as much as it did me. Do be aware that there is an overarching horror-esque theme to the setting, which can feel gloomy/dark if it’s not your cup of tea.

My advice: Give the first couple of chapters a shot, and be patient with the initial world building. From around chapter 12 it starts settling into the pace it’ll retain for a long while and which is one of the core defining features/perks of the novel to me.

I love the nitty gritty of the first portion as well as the smooth transition to the bit city. The point "system" is a wonderful thing to see and what its based of off... well it's great... giggity.. it feels like SAO simplified and it just leaves suspense for what's to come! Not to mention the MC is so relatable on so many different levels. He is very much a common guy that you would see yourself being friends with and want to see succeed!

I also very much appreciate the work the MC has to put in before he is allowed to actually, "cultivate" which is nice from someone just being crazy talented or and just one shotting people at the last second. It really feels like CD and DE if you have read those you will love this. its a very nice jump into what feels like modern Wuxia.

As someone who has done martial arts most of their life, I can also tell you there is some great nerdy stuff that is spoken about that feels very natural apposed to a lot of other novels where its overly polite and just so much fluff.

What I love most is JL really makes it a fun read when your someone who has a busy life and need something to enjoy in passing but you can't commit to something that's already 1k chapters in XD. So start now and get caught up because JL is the man to follow with this novel and he is doing spectacular!

My final thought is the effort that was about the stat pages. They are very clean and It makes my interaction with the story so much more fun and in tune with the MC and very much what it would be like if this happened to one of us and makes our connection with entire world so much cooler and I hope for more!

I cant wait to see what is in store for our MC and what JL is going to do next! Keep up the good!
