The demon lord Yin Ci had lived for several hundred years and was thoroughly tired of life. He planned to go to the legendary ghost tomb to find the Vision Flesh and turn it into a deadly poison to kill himself. In order to act low-key, he captured a rookie master as a cover.

As a rare genius who only appeared once in a century, Shi Jingzhi’s life was not long. He also wanted to go to the ghost tomb to find the Vision Flesh and make a divine medicine to live a little longer. In order to smoothly enter the tomb, he took on an innocent disciple to go along as a smokescreen.

The two competitors faced each other, feeling very pleased in their hearts: not bad, they had successfully deceived the other person.

The main leads are truly sweet and work wonderfully together. Their romance develops beautifully, and seeing their vulnerabilities and how they open up and rely on each other is absolutely delightful.

The side characters are also well-developed and multi-dimensional; I shed a few tears over some of the more tragic backstories.

My only issue with this novel is that I found it challenging to follow about 10-20% of the time. The story and world-building are very complex, and I couldn't fully grasp some of the key points, which somewhat impacted my enjoyment of the story.

**Spoiler**
I still don’t understand why the Male Lead (ML) has the physical constitution to become a root. Where did he come from? Why did his body react the way it did to the immortal wine? Additionally, for the Main Character (MC), I’m still unclear on how the Children of Desire are created. Are they naturally born with 'monster material' imbued with desire from birth?
**[collapse]**

Despite my confusion, I thoroughly enjoyed the story’s highs and lows, as well as the romantic moments. The unveiling of secrets at the beginning was particularly engaging.

It’s almost a favorite, and I might re-read it (hopefully, I’ll gain a better understanding if I do).

Honestly, I think this story feels like a lighter version of "Stray." While the overall concepts of the two stories are quite different, the vibe this one gives off is so similar to "Stray" that it makes me feel like, "Haven't I read this before?"

Additionally, as the story progresses towards its end, there are several parts that are written in a somewhat verbose manner, which can dampen the reader's interest.

, though, this story is still very good and definitely worth reading.

This is such a great novel!!! I thoroughly enjoyed reading it; it’s very interesting and fun. This novel definitely deserves a lot more reviews!

I started this story because of the xuanhuan tag and my interest in cultivation. The synopsis drew me in, and honestly, I didn’t expect such an engaging mystery in this story! I wasn’t sure what to expect when I began reading, but I was very pleasantly surprised by how captivating and interesting this story turned out to be. The plot is very well-designed, and the mystery kept getting better.

I am very satisfied with this novel and feel extremely glad that I read it! The main characters are amazing and just so lovely. I felt sad and heartbroken after learning about the tragic background of the male lead. I even cried for him. Some might say the novel isn’t that sad overall, but the tragic parts were truly moving for me. There’s not much ongoing pain, just some when you learn about their backgrounds.

Additionally, I adore Yan Qing and Su Si. It’s a shame they aren’t a couple in the story, but in my heart, they are a true pair, they are canon for me!

P.S. This story doesn’t have any side couples. Only the main couple is there.

I loved everything about this story and definitely recommend it to everyone! Give it a try; it’s very good! It deserves more hype, for real.

- Until my next review ~

I really want to enjoy this novel. It has themes I appreciate, especially regarding the main character (MC) and love interest (ML) and their backstory.

I genuinely want to like this novel, but for some reason, it feels so slow and boring to me. I’m finding it really hard to focus on the overall story. I often have to take a break after every few chapters because, after an exciting part about the MC or ML, the point of view switches, and it becomes unexciting again. Sigh, it doesn’t help that the supporting characters fail to catch my attention, making it even more tedious. This affects my mindset, making it a struggle just to finish the novel.

I’ll definitely give this novel another try in the future to see if my opinion changes because I really want to like it.
