Is that a Wisp? by Suiyan

EDIT:

While i enjoy this novel still i simply cant in good faith recommend it anymore. all the points are still valid except the attention to detail bit. Im at chapter 840 and I noticed while reading this book stuff gets retconned or plot hooks/bait gets dropped, and not just garbage throw away lines or unimportant stuff but big plot points instead.

For instance after he beats two people and finds out about a tournament, he says he doesnt want to participate and gives really good and valid points to not attend, but however after he beats another person and then sends them back he then decides that he now wants to join the tournament and gives zero explanation why he wants to now join the tournament even though all of his previous points he gave still stand true. The tournament was a huge deal as well since it basically decided who was going to be the rulers of a very important region for every single cultivator in their realm. (Realm as in realm of existence not cultivation)

Another time he gets two items from a character that can communicate with each other after its charged for a month, after they reunite the artifacts they merge and allow them to communicate with the guy who gave it to them after its charged up for a month on his end (it needs a type of energy that only the creator has access to.) then when they start to go to where the creator is the item suddenly no longer exists, it doesnt stop working or breaks or whatever its just said they never merged and just destroyed itself when he returned even tho it specifically said it can communicate with its creator, and the creator was an important character that has interacted with krune since the beginning of the story.

Other times plot hooks or throw away lines are just forgotten or ignored like they weren’t there to begin with, like when he created the purple fire for the first time a character wonders if “the others” will ever be created, now what those others are? No f#cking clue cause its just dropped. I remember this one because it was one of those end of the chapter “please keep reading my book and wait for more updates” chapters that webnovels like to use (i have no issue with these since it makes sense that authors like to use these to keep readers hooked.) i also liked the implications of it cause it mixed some science and cultivation magic and i looked forward to what the other elements could do, but instead i only got disappointed cause it was basic element stuff mixed with his cheat, (like why wasnt freezing hydrogen or turning helium into a liquid ever a thing since they can get really close to absolute zero)

Im sure im forgetting other moments but these are the ones that stuck with me cause two of them were big deals and the other was just something that sounded cool to me.

If this happened in the first 50 chapters i would have dropped this novel and written it off as trash. sadly im in too deep and i just get frustrated when it happens, I’ll probably still end up dropping it but not until im done binging it. I really enjoyed this book but the retcons and plot hook drops are just too annoying and just make it so i cant really trust that characters will be consistent from now on.

End of EDIT

For awhile i had this story open and never started it because i hate idiot/idiot savant MC’s. while people were saying he's rational it didn't make sense to me, so i just left the story hanging until i couldn't find something to read . But iv read 50 chapters (which is like 100 for other webnovels) without many breaks.

While the MC might be dense and doesn't understand human culture/mannerisms he is very intelligent and actually uses his brain (core or soul or whatever.) The comedy that involves his EQ is also top tier and while the gag of “he doesn't understand human culture” gets used for the root of most of the jokes it doesn't feel stale cause all of his misunderstandings where the joke comes from get resolved afterwords. (Or their explanations confuse him more and create more misunderstandings but even then its not bad.)

So far the characters feel fleshed out and not like cardboard. The attention to detail is also nice (like there is a joke early on where he mentions a profession that he shouldn't know about, i thought it was just gonna be ignored and just glossed over for the sake of the punchline, but it was addressed how he heard about it a few lines later)

So far I'm enjoying it and if your on the fence on trying it for the same reasons i listed, give it a shot its good.

2/5 stars it'd be 4/5 but huge chunks of the story are in third person that really shouldn't be and it hurts to read, also a lot is in the wrong tense. idk the grammar is BAD, feel like I could just run through and edit everything once without changing any of the content and it'd be almost perfect.

alright to the people downvoting my perfectly valid opinion here's is an example from the story.

"Krune wasn't the only one annoyed, Yusa was also fuming! She wants to try out her skills in the Raskie Danger Zone, but in the end, they had to give up the mission. Fortunately, they haven't applied for it at that moment."

this is a direct quote, right off the bat 2 typos, "wants" should be "wanted" and "haven't" should be "hadn't." it's like this for at least the first 50 chapters, and the typos are so frequent it's like reading a foreign language.
I realize not all authors are native English speakers, but this is such a simple fix with an English proofreader that it's hard to justify them being there at all. I think the story is good, I just don't want to be forced to correct every single typo in my head to enjoy it.

( Current status : Chapter 838 )

Cons

Ok, I recommend you guys to try it!! This is an addictive Eastern Fantasy novel!!!

First time I'm seeing a tag like "Little Romance"?
What even is little romance? Either it's there or it isn't!
Confusing asf!!
Heard the novel's good though!

I can sense stupidity from the description no common sense and non-funny stupidity jokes read it if you like japanese novels

8/10 , had to skip a few chapters later in the story as I felt they were repeats of past events or filler , anyway i wasn't expecting to read 800+ ch , nice read

Please tell me the whole story isn't filled with run on sentences

In the first 200-400 chapters some texts were missing, and the chapters had to be deleted.

Nice novel but it's not updated regularly?
