what is truly original in this wu xia genre novel is the indecipherable 'system' ... it has the space time continuum properties but is only in the mind of our indefatigable young hero and is therfore intangible even to the top tier cultivators, it has a disembodied voice and can manipulate treasures, artifacts, sutras, technique-manuals, heavenly pulls, spirit herbs, etc. but it is amoral and not guided by ethical principles and values ... what simply is it ???
