My Thoughts on Secular Immortal of the Nine Realms
Alright, let's dive into "Secular Immortal of the Nine Realms." I've been following the discussions and reading what people are saying, and I've got a pretty good feel for what this novel offers.
First Impressions
Initially, the premise grabbed my attention. A blind protagonist navigating a xuanhuan world? That's a unique twist. I was intrigued by the idea of a calm, clever, and confident male lead who, despite his disability, strives to free his people from oppression. The early chapters seem to set the stage well, introducing a world where cultivation is intertwined with political intrigue.
What Works Well
One of the strongest points appears to be the protagonist, Fang Chen. He's not just another bloodthirsty martial artist. He's portrayed as a man of principle, someone who cares deeply for his country and acts according to his own moral compass, even when facing opposition. His interactions with other characters, especially the initial challenges and political maneuvering, seem to add depth to the story. I appreciate that he isn't immediately overpowered, and that his cultivation progresses at a reasonable pace, at least in the beginning. The translator has been highly praised for the translation quality, which is always a huge plus.
Areas of Concern
However, I have seen some concerns raised about the pacing and repetitiveness that seems to plague the novel after the first few hundred chapters. The plot supposedly devolves into a series of side quests with no main story. The "Spirit Blood Sect" appears to be the root cause of every problem, making the arcs predictable and formulaic. The fight scenes are either nonexistent or one-sided. Some find that the MC is too perfect and lacks genuine challenges, which can lead to boredom. The world-building, while initially promising, apparently fails to deliver a truly immersive experience, with realms feeling similar despite their supposed differences.
Final Verdict
"Secular Immortal of the Nine Realms" presents an interesting concept with a compelling protagonist, but it seems to struggle with long-term execution. If you're looking for a novel with a unique twist and a strong early game, this might be worth a try. However, be prepared for potential pacing issues and repetitive plotlines as the story progresses. It's a decent read, but perhaps not a standout in the crowded xuanhuan genre.
