2026-02-23 01:52:08 +0000 UTCThank you. That fight scene—a fusion of action with story with philosophy. I realize it was probably a lot of work, but you made it seem… effortless.

2026-02-22 20:40:48 +0000 UTCNine, eh? So we can assume Tuan, Hong and Burning Heaven are included. I presume Elders Rui and Redmane are as well since they’re significant side characters. Elder Deepwater is probably in there, as is the crow, Brightheart, and their companion, so that would make eight. Was anyone else mentioned these last few chapters? Other than a mention of types of birds, I can’t think of any.

2026-02-21 08:02:53 +0000 UTCProbably a typo of mistress

2026-02-21 06:59:18 +0000 UTCThese last two chapters have been awesome, that last was the spiritual and mental condensing of everything he’d learned, ans this was the physical, so good!

2026-02-20 18:25:25 +0000 UTCFair, some more slight indications of her own changes and struggles might have been nice to give us some characterization now that she displays more obvious sophoncy.

2026-02-20 17:26:57 +0000 UTCI love this chapter in that we get to see Tian's gains and ofc, the 'is he even human?' vibe at the end is one of my favorite running gags. One thing I found incongruent though is the lack of mention of Burning Heaven until the very end - to me, even with the stress of the challenge she's someone he would look for after he got out of the illusion. Since we've barely seen her go through more direct challenges, to me it wasn't a given she'd make it through either round (even if narratively she should be on their level or stronger, we just haven't seen much of that on screen)

2026-02-20 16:34:40 +0000 UTCI'm guessing, "hell yeah, horde mode!" is not the appropriate reaction?
Andrew Goebel
2026-02-20 16:20:02 +0000 UTCHe's still Level 8. Needs to be peak Level 9, but a revelation won't be hard for him.
Jackson Albert
2026-02-20 16:07:13 +0000 UTCGreat combat writing in this chapter after not having an extended fight scene for some time. Can't wait for the world to continue to grow larger in the next few chapters. Haven't been this excited in a while!
John Smith
2026-02-20 15:57:31 +0000 UTCIs "Misteress" a deliberate word choice? Cannot tell if it's a typo or reference that the entity is genderless/fluid.
Aricatos
2026-02-20 15:45:50 +0000 UTCYes, though he'd never have reached this point without being taken off the front.
BurnNote
2026-02-20 15:45:26 +0000 UTCI wonder how close Tian’s is to Heaven realm now, his combat insight has now reached peak of the earth realm too I gather. Him forgiving his dad and pursuing Loren has somewhat settled his heart. I think his revelation will come once he decides his personal “mission” with the sect, it’s the only internal conflict he has. The Sparrow or top tier heavenly beasts will have great insight to share with him in that regard
Joshua Flowers
2026-02-20 15:38:52 +0000 UTCI just had the weirdest, most out of concept thought: would that make him kin to a certain guardsman? One that is actually human, but has to carry a note from the midwife to prove it?
WickedlyDesigned
2026-02-20 15:38:46 +0000 UTCHeh what is a cut if not a conection. A discontuity rather than a severing. If Yin is accumulation somewhere is death simply not that accumulation happening around a new nexus? Yang pushing and shaping those new paradigms until they explode out again. Very fun bits of ideating the concepts this time. Also wonder if the Sparrrow relates to Liren.

2026-02-20 15:33:02 +0000 UTCIs it wrong that the thing that's sticks with me this chapter is "He's still not at 9 darts?" Lol

2026-02-20 15:32:41 +0000 UTCGreat chapter. More introspection, cool fight. I like the sparrow!
Logrus
2026-02-20 15:31:24 +0000 UTCYou’re looking at a simple arithmetic sequence. Wave function: E(n) = n + 1 where  is the number of enemies in wave . Domain:  So wave 1 has 2 enemies, wave 2 has 3, …, wave 19 has 20. Total enemies across all waves: \sum_{n=1}^{19} (n+1) = \sum_{k=2}^{20} k = \frac{20(21)}{2} - 1 = 209 Courtesy of chat gpt 209 Heretics with no rest and varying cultivation and lethality

2026-02-20 15:31:09 +0000 UTC"picking which path to follow by tossing a stick in the air and going whichever way it pointed.” Senior White, is that you?

Mistythread
2026-02-20 15:28:10 +0000 UTCI'm guessing the emmisary is looking for who will push past their limits, not just raw talent for violence. Tian finding a new level to his skills is what qualifies him. I imagine since (IIRC) he and Liren are the only earthly realm cultivators present, that the others faced challenges more aligned to their level.
Roxanne Moore
2026-02-20 15:22:45 +0000 UTCI think other stories give out info to freely about the highest ranks in the world. Ffs, we don’t even know the name of the third realm in this story. Which makes us even more curious
Diarmuid McGinnity
2026-02-20 15:18:43 +0000 UTCAwesome chapter. Thank you
Roxanne Moore
2026-02-20 15:18:26 +0000 UTCThe Emissary is really going to ask another round of "Is he really human?" check ups

2026-02-20 15:15:00 +0000 UTCCongrats to Tian for killing a minimum of 190 earthly realm heretics in one sitting. The lower ranks of Black Gorge are lucky he was taken off the front before he reached this point.
Andrew Lechner
2026-02-20 15:14:53 +0000 UTCM. Riemann says Tian killed about 190-210 heretics
David
2026-02-20 15:14:39 +0000 UTCTian with a final kill count between 190 and 210. I wonder where that puts him on the leaderboard?
JTP
2026-02-20 15:13:53 +0000 UTCSomething I really have to praise is the feeling of not knowing the height of the mountain. Many Xianxia attempt to convey a feeling of mystery about the true power houses of the world but few ever make it work on both a story and world building level. Your story however really captures that idea of unimaginable heights.
