I love the art style for this comic adaptation. I think if fits the story’s vibes and is accurate in the portrayal of each of the characters.
The story and its pacing were easy enough to follow. If you have not read the original novels, then it might take a bit to grasp what’s going on, but there are footnotes throughout the comic that point out details and terms that are important to the story and particular to this genre.
My only qualm was how this first volume ended. It felt very abrupt and it left me wishing I had picked up the second volume along with the first.

It feels very rushed and I read a few reviews saying it leaves out a lot compared to the actual novel, so I’d rather just read the actual novel. It’s just a little confusing and not holding my interest that much, and I don’t like how every chapter is only 10 pages long but nothing much changes to justify a new chapter.

I initially tried to read a sample of the novel version of this series, but after not being able to visualize what was happening, I decided to not officially pick up the series. Then I found out there was a Manhua version and since I still had FOMO over hearing so many good things about this series, I decided to pick up this version, and I have to say this was a really enjoyable first volume! Wei Wuxian is such a funny and lighthearted protagonist considering he’s supposed to be the grandmaster of DEMONIC cultivation. Although, I wouldn’t be surprised if he was wrongfully executed considering everyone seems to be so casually using inventions he presumably created WITH demonic cultivation. IDK seems a little hypocritical if you ask me.

I wish I could understand the stranglehold this story has on me but I can't. I love it, the characters are great, I love the art, and I'm excited to revisit this story in comic form now.

This manhua is very hard to understand if you haven't read the novel. I'm about 15% into the novel and enjoying the story so far!

I’ve already read the first novel in the series, so this was more like a recap of the first part for me. However, the art is very fun and despite having read the story before I was entertained the whole time. I wish it was longer honestly! I would’ve loved to see what comes after where it ended with art.
