Yiggy gonna get good! (Yiggy is going to be getting an upgrade soon!?!) I like the thought of Molric and Thara's research being the key to everything.

Fyi Stockholm syndrome is almost certainly not really a thing. It's not included in the DSM, and there is (in my view) very credible research showing that its basically bunk. Probably not super impactful to the store since Ke Yin is just a guy, but as an overarching plot point I think it's worth considering.

He is absolutely going to pull these two start crossed lovers back together and they are going to absolutely go mad with the research he’ll help them with but yeah when he hits the final loop he has to get those two back together honestly it seems her research is only limited by her lack of red sun energy while Molric got plenty of blue sun energy from her and grabbed even more Lightweaver’s as time went on and he needed more blue sun energy so it really seems her only limit is her resources

Oki, so my patreon subscription for this novel is about to expire, i don't think i'll be renewing it. But before I go I feel you deserve a reason for it for all the fun i have had reading the story, because it's indeed fun. I think the story has an identity crisis. Can't decide what it wants to be. An isekai, a time loop, a portal jump story, a xianxia, a western fantasy, and whatever else you decide to toss in because why not. The narrative threads are so tangled and messy i can't decide you are trying to make the novel into some kind of roundabout self-deprecating joke. With so many elements thrown together i can't imagine the writer's skill needed to stick the landing with all of them. 400% not someone as new to writing as you are. I'm not trying to be dismissive or insulting, and I'm sorry if it's coming off that way. The new settings, the new characters the diverging plot lines are multiplying complexity without adding much depth. And wore, they are stalling the main narrative. The only way i can see someone reasonably keeping pace with the tight turns the story is taking is if they binge through the whole thing in days. If a reader was to come back to the story in months, the way things are in novels released vol by vol instead of chapter at the time, they'd completely lose both the grip on the plot and likely interest in picking up a story that seems to be bucking and turning like a wild bull. The alternate worlds characters seem unimportant other than what they can do to power the MC up for his big show in the main world. And main world events that seem the only ones that really stick or matter are far between and broken up so far apart that it's hard to keep track of the. I can see the Nordic world tree theme the story is going for, travelling the realms, but there's so many other elements fighting for the limelight and wordcount that i can't help but feel like you are trying to write 5-10 different stories into one. I don't normally read many comments on patreon and similar sites, but I'll guess that this is not the 1st time someone has drawn your attention to this, perhaps in fewer words. As I said, the story is indeed fun, and not beyond salvaging, but it is bloating and fast. Do with my comments as you will, I'm no writer outside what little I write for my own amusement, and I'm aware reading and writing are 2 vastly different skills. Never kept count, but I'm sure I read my 1000th fantasy novel a long long time ago, so I have a fair idea on what I'm talking about. Once again, thank you for your hard work.

Thank you for your thoughts. The main story arcs for the novel have already been planned out, which is why an event in book 1 relates to book 2 or 3 (e.g. Li Yuan's death in book 1 leads to his resurrection in book 2 and the introduction of the Masked One). The expectations for the story were already stated below the synopsis, which is why we have isekai, time loop, xianxia, and world-hopping. Expectations: - MC's main cultivation method will be plant based and related to World Trees (chapter 24) - Weak to Strong MC - MC will eventually create his own lifeforms within his soul as well as beings that can cultivate - Main world is the first world (Azure Peak Sect) - MC will revisit worlds (extensive world building of multiple realms) - Light LitRPG aspects - Time loop elements - No harem While you may not be confident in my writing ability to hit the landing points, I'll give it my best try and hope my readers believe in me and enjoy the end result. I have been writing since I was a child, the only difference being this time I decided to share my story with the world. The more I write, the more I improve. Honestly, it can be discouraging to read comments like this, but I also understand that not everyone will enjoy the novel. Readers drop off after each book, it is quite normal. Stories bigger than mine (HWFWM, Primal Hunter, Defiance of the Fall etc) get more compliments but also more criticism, just check the reddit posts. I'm happy it brought you at least some enjoyment. I hope most readers will stick with it. The ending of book 1 & 2 both received positive responses, and I hope the later books will too. Anyways, that’s all I have to say. Have a good day/night :)

I mostly agree with what you're saying, but from my side I'd say my main issue with the story is that while the events of the Main World might be the ones that stick...the *characters* of the side-worlds seem to be the ones that have so much more love and effort put into them. I honestly barely remember anyone in the Main World and for all that its where the 'main' plot, so to speak, happens, nobody in it seems very important. They mostly exist as the hype-person for the MC when they get back from the side-worlds. In contrast, the most character development, MC included, is in these side-world arcs and stories. I'm a little sad that the recent excursion to Ke Yin's village couldn't fit his two friends in. They're probably the ones with the most character development in the Main World so far and with how slow their own progression is, I expect they're going to be sidelined in the future for stronger companions. I hope they get a happy ending at least, but most likely they'll die for character development's sake.

“ That seems... unusual for a Skybound Elder." And how, exactly, would Tomas know what is usual for a Skybound Elder? Or even that who they were talking about was an Elder in the first place, as it hadn’t been mentioned yet…

Okay given how thara is very much described as being young and molric as old, the amount of shipping happening in these comments is weird to me. I just bought the patreon today but like... Star crossed lovers? Tf? Honestly I regret buying
