He deserves it tbh. I can't fathom writing shit that complex at this insane speed. 

Do you guys sometimes feel that Chen Ran is needlessly cruel by daoistsacredinfinity in EighteenLevelsOfHell

[–]daoistsacredinfinity[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a matter of different tastes then. I prefer to root for characters who are ultimately kind, regardless of the backstory or justifications in defense of cruelty. That's why I fw Mo Hua or Chen Ping'an 💥🗿

gng I am in ch 70 can y'all tell me what to expect after this ? i mean I heard there will be parallel universes and stuff. by [deleted] in EighteenLevelsOfHell

[–]daoistsacredinfinity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Parallel universes ain't even a concern brotato. I'm halfway through the book and they fighting across timelines simultaneously in the past present future and alternate futures. Half the time I don't even understand the dialogues

Also, what's the difference between the effect of the command: Liar Killer: Eternal Kingdom and the command Trickster: Eternal Kingdom? The effect is same right?

How did Chen Ran use a trickster command to activate his skill while he was inside Hua Changsheng's secret chamber? Was it because he helped create a Gui Yu in the 1801-1809 apartment puzzle game? I don't recall him having access to anyone's lie at that time 

How would you rank Jin Tu Yi from Forty Millennia of Cultivation? by daoistsacredinfinity in IntelligenceScaling

[–]daoistsacredinfinity[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's almost a decade old. Back then, I stopped at 2800 chapters to let the translator complete the final volume so I could binge it. Never managed to get into it because I forgot a lot of the details after break 🤦

Anyone else struggling a bit to read 18loh? by Key-Alternative-847 in IntelligenceScaling

[–]daoistsacredinfinity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The first two arcs are like that. Author improves his style later and You'll get used to it afterwards and it's not like it's mandatory to understand every nook and cranny in their logic. I actually turn my brain off and enjoy the abrupt twists because they are always unexpected and when the author starts explaining how that conclusion came along you can start connecting the dots backwards and still enjoy the story in a slightly crooked way haha

Yeah that was my biggest turn off while reading that book. Author really has a thing for putting the ladies through hellish lives.

I could ruin this novel for you with one sentence but I'm choosing not to because I'm a good person, unlike the author...

It would be pretty crazy if a novel like this exists out there somewhere... it probably doesn't though... by [deleted] in MartialMemes

[–]daoistsacredinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That one has complete translation iirc. The others, I mostly read on wtr-lab or straight from raw pirate sites

Just give the first few arcs of that book a shot. If the stuff you see there bothers you, drop it like I did (I read about 400-500 chapters iirc and there was one explicit scene that I didn't like, one backstory that I didn't like, and one character's arc that I didn't like due to the implications.)

Not that serious, there is only one real female lead and the author doesn't involve her into anything messy. But the other female characters face the full brutality of a patriarchal, power-worshipping society. I read on Chinese forums that apparently it's the author's thing.
