Es una novela ESPECTACULAR!!!! vale cada sufrimiento. Tang Jiuqing no decepciona
I actually really liked this book but I expected something else actually way more angst. People made me believe this would make me cry, break my heart but it did neither like this was complete normal in terms of angst. I would even call it angsty at all. But even if did not meet my expectations it’s a good book
I enjoyed it very much. It was a bit confusing at the beginning, but it gets much better in the later half. I'd love to reread this in the future to absorb more of the details because I can't lie, I skimmed quite a bit in the beginning to get through the triggering contents.
Also a lot of constant guessing on who the blood sea is, I have to say Jing Lin and I were wrong

Such a beautiful and sweet story. If you like xianxia- I highy recommend this novel. Immortals, deities, magical beings, the Three Realms, cultivation, reincarnation, the Eight Sufferings and so much more. I feel like this story has the perfect balance of plot, character development, world building, and exploration of the relationship between Jing Lin and Cang Ji. There is angst, heartbreak, fluff and comedy with an ending that makes it so worth the journey! It started out a little slow but picks up and doesn't stop. This is by the same author of one of my all time favorite books, (Qiang Jin Jiu by Tang Jiuqing) and I now feel the need to read everything she has written. I will definitely be re-reading this. The official English translated novel is supposed to be released this July (2024).
Don't really know what to make of this, but damn, that was a pretty strange book. This is a xuanhuan type of novel, similar to the Netflix dramas, Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms and Ashes of Love. This is good if you like xuanhuan. I pretty much skimmed this from start to the end coz I'm not a fan.
The pacing was uneven. It was quite draggy in the first two-thirds, and then there were suddenly lots of revelations and plot-twists in the last third. I really liked the idea of the copper bell leading the two main leads through the eight Buddhist sufferings though.
I also had some issues with the main couple. The pattern of dubcon and possessive behavior was pushing against my comfort zone.
The author is great at building mystery though (although it takes really long to get to the pay-off). I mainly skimmed-read the book just to see if my guesses about the plot were correct.

Stopped at chapter 14, just feeling a bit slow and reading other stuff, probably will come back to it, need to get to the good stuff. Currently cang ji and jing lin just fought a monk who burst through the window
I don’t remember reading something this captivating in a long time.
Cang Ji is so
