    Don't come back. It's not worth reading.. So much of every chapters are filled with repetitive and useless explanations. I pity the people wasting their free chaps/money on this.

    How the **** is the rating so high for this? I see that many of the people here make a comparison with Everyone Else is a Returnee. Let's be real, the only thing this novel copied was the world isolation/freeze concept. EEIAR makes it clear that the focus of the novel is about the human's return and survival, and how MC pulls it all through. This novel is about MC's lone journey alone in the world while everyone is frozen for 500 years. If that's what the focus of the novel is, the author needs to make this 500 years journey a real fucking difficult journey as well as some crazy character development with all that shit he was adding to the world-change in the beginning. The problem is that the shit-pacing of the novel makes a good chunk of the 500-year journey into a joke of the ride with us feeling little to nothing for the MC. He's old companions that spent years with him dies - "death is so scary and inescapable... well there goes my panda". Trust me, you won't give a shit about MC's state of mind, wellbeing, and growth. You also won't give a shit about any of his companions. Everyone and everything feels shallow. Also, why did the author give such human-like behaviour to the ants? What kind of fucking ant accesses a Cultivation scroll meant for humans and all of the sudden turns into an enlightened Daoist that takes everything MC does into some mysterious teaching. It takes everything that can be serious and life-threatening into a sidekick comic relief. Overall thoughts: It just feels like the Author set the world up for something amazing and wild, but you only find out that he made a too big of a promise/hole with it and now everything feels like a half-assed attempt to fill it. Intensity: The novel makes it seem like this dude is taking a stroll in the middle of an apocalypse. Humour: Cringe. Sadness: Peace out fat panda and fat tiger. Pacing: Useless and inconsistent. Character Development: Sure it's kind of there, but does it matter? No.
