My Thoughts on I Can See Through Everything
"I Can See Through Everything" is a web novel that certainly piqued my interest with its unique premise. The blend of action, adventure, supernatural elements, and cultivation had me eager to dive in. After looking at what readers are saying, here are my thoughts.
First Impressions
The initial chapters seem to paint a picture of a slow-burn, slice-of-life story with a rural setting and a focus on survival. The protagonist, Lu Qing, transmigrates with a system-like ability to identify objects and their qualities. I can see the appeal of a character focused on day-to-day survival, especially with the added responsibility of caring for a younger sister. The early focus on fishing and learning herb identification sounds like a chill start to a cultivation journey.
What Works Well
Many readers praised the novel's pacing and solid buildup, particularly regarding power scaling. The way the story remembers and incorporates past events into the present is a definite plus. I also appreciate that the character arcs are enjoyable, and the combat is engaging. The fact that there aren't unnecessary, quickly-obsolete side quests is a big win in my book.
Areas of Concern
However, it seems the novel might stumble later on. Several readers mentioned a decline after a certain point, particularly after a time-skip. The protagonist's OPness seems to escalate to a point where fights lose their tension. It sounds like the initial charm of the character interactions fades, and side characters become less relevant. A few readers mentioned issues with the writing quality later in the story. The villains are apparently given excessive backstories justifying their evil deeds, which can drag on and slow down the plot. I'm also seeing complaints about inconsistencies in the timeline.

Final Verdict
"I Can See Through Everything" appears to be a novel with a promising start but some significant issues that arise later on. While the initial world-building, character interactions, and unique ability are appealing, the potential for the protagonist to become overly powerful and the plot to drag may deter some readers. I'd cautiously recommend giving it a try, but be aware of the potential pitfalls that others have experienced. It sounds like the first 150 chapters are worth it, but be warned.
