The MC drifts from place to place falling into trap after trap like someone constantly slipping on banana peels. New plot lines keep opening up whilst old ones are left hanging. New questions continually pop up while previous questions go unanswered. MC was given the task to find the 5 pieces of the map from the first few chapters, after 500 chapters of not minding his own business he still hasn't found the 4th piece and decided to concentrate on revenge instead. Most of the setting (99%+) is wasted as the MC keeps going to new mysterious places and f*cking about while everyone he cares about gets murdered. You could say the author is just making sh*t up as he goes along. And you'd be right. The author's exact thoughts at the time of writing the MC: "How can I write someone to be as miserable and helpless as possible?" Here's the story in a nutshell: OMG I NEED TO FIND THE 5 PIECES OF THE MAP BEFORE THE OUTER SPACE DEMONS ARRIVE Oh look here is a random village that I don't need to enter but I will do so for the lulz Oh noes random people are getting chased by monsters I must protect them even though I've repeatedly said that I'm a selfish bastard but actually I'm a nice guy SUDDENLY MONSTERS OUT OF f*ckING NOWHERE AND NOW I AM GETTING CHASED BY MONSTERS FOR 20 CHAPTERS WHAT! HOW DARE RANDOM STRANGERS THAT I DO NOT KNOW BETRAY ME! I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED! VERY SAD!! Oh look, a power struggle between random strangers. Must... not... get... involved [gets involved anyways] [100 chapters later] Wow I just found about the existence of aliens maybe I should keep my book a secret [reveals he has the book to all the aliens] f*ck WHY ARE ALIENS CHASING ME [LITERALLY 400 chapters later] OMG I STILL HAVEN'T FOUND THE MAP BUT ALL MY FAMILY IS DEAD AND I DONT CARE ANYMORE! I HAVE TO KILL ALL THE ALIENS WHO KILLED MY FAMILY!! [1000 chapters later the aliens are stronger than ever and he is still a weak shit] So the premise of the story is that the MC has a magical book that NOBODY knows exists because it's f*cking thousands of years old and everybody thinks it's a pile of junk. Also nobody could read it. Otherwise they would've taken it away from him already. The magical book contains magical spells and cultivation methods and deadly strong fighting techniques that can destroy entire armies with a single attack. The book tells the MC that the world will plunge into darkness in 2012 and a new age will begin that lets him use magic. Of course the MC is a blabbering idiot and tells everyone about 2012 by POSTING IT ON PUBLIC INTERNET FORUMS. The problem with this is that the MC states that he's incredibly selfish and cold and will place his own interests over other people's, and yet his actions show the exact opposite. Let's think about this. If it's true and NOBODY ELSE on the internet predicted the darkness then it means it's either: 1. Top secret information that the government does not want anybody to know or 2. Information that even the government does not know Regardless of whether if it's 1 or 2, the government as described in the story would obviously arrest and torture the MC and everyone who has ever had the misfortune of being in contact with him to find out how he came across the information. The MC's actions do not make any sense. Even Jesus reincarnate wouldn't go blabbering on about the darkness since NOBODY would believe it, and it would bring trouble to him later on because he would get arrested. Thus posting about it on the internet forums is the worst decision in every possible situation. There are a few more really dumb things that the MC does, like creating and wearing flashy looking armor that is instantly recognizable from miles away that NOBODY ELSE is wearing, using flashy fire and ice spells to kill bugs IN FRONT OF EVERYONE and so on. I'm actually surprised that the MC does not get found out by the aliens sooner. There are more shiit to this novel DON'T READ IT FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR SANITY JUST DON'T!!!!!!
This novel is what I call a tragic story. The protagonist might be strong, however not strong enough to prevent unfortunate things happening to the people dear to him. Some allies are forced to betray him due to insufficient strength, his enemies are an entire dimension above him (literally). His paths are always blocked. His story is tragic, however it's also quite entertaining too.
Not so great novel which is definitely not worth wasting resources on translating it. Hey WebNovel, how about finishing all the existing stories you picked up earlier, before you start translating new novels. In the last year you dropped like 5 or 6 popular novels which were completed for 50-70% Seriously, whats the point for me to buy premium for this novel or other, if in the end you are going to drop it midway? I'd much more prefer if I can get 6 chapters daily from one novel, instead of 2 chapters from 3 novels. I'd even pay some money since its that what you are after, but like don't even think about getting a dolla from me before you pick up the novels you dropped and finished the existing translations. But if you still try to take new novels, at least pick up something good. Or else you will loose majority of your readers. You will not get any profit like this, c'mon, WebNovel dawg, you can get 1 dollar from 100000 average readers or 10 dollars from 100 rich readers, its obvious which is more profitable. You get my idea, right? Guys please like this comment so that webnovel will hopefully see it and finish the existing translations ASAP before switching to new books.
"At a wrong place, at a wrong time" - This is probably what I would describe the status of this Novel. Dark Blood Age is a novel that's unique in a sense that it tries to become something greater than the format that is it written in - "web novel" - usually allow. The novel takes itself super seriously, implements famous literature gothic literature, feudatory chinese philosophies, ancient myths and archetypes. For example, the main character starts off as a normal white collar worker, but during the progress of the storyline he gains more and more qualities of a "byronic hero" - which included considerable level of intelligence, self-criticism, self-destructive, loner,... Unlike other reviewer opinions, the side characters have a significant level of polishing to them as well. To illustrate, in chapter 244, the story direct to a tragedy of a father have to choose which of his 2 children to let go into the hands of a bunch of cannibals. The situation itself is extremly similar to the origin of the main antagonist of the famous manga "Monster" of Urasawa Naoki. In "Monster" the main antagonist reveals that the very action of choosing one of the children of his mother is one of the reason turning him unable to feel emotion - thus, making him a interesting antagonist. However, in this book, we can see that this option is justified due to the cruel circumstances of the world, and only by choosing to let go of one of the children is the only way to create a living opportunity to the other. The decision of the father also reflect the reality of *** discrimination of the china's society. The archetypes, myths and other inspiration that the novel borrows is not something "new" or "groundbreaking", but they are quite perfectly blent together. The stakes and pacing of most of the arcs are handled quite well - there is a time limit for everything so the main character can not just stay there and grinding, there are hard and emotional decision that the main character has to make, there are a good amount of logical twists that were hinted along the progression of the story, an the dark and cruel theme of the world is pretty much persistent. Turn-offs: The power scale of the story is one of the turn-off factor for many readers. Simply because this novel does not target readers who is looking for power fantasy/ power trip type of story. Cranking up the power way to fast will hurt all the other elements of the story so I guess that why the power progress is quite slow. Another usual turn off is the extremly dark and cruel theme of the story, but then again, it's like when somebody complains that "berserk" is "too dark" they are not the target audiences. In the end, I just feel that despite this novel is a fantastic work and have a fairshare of fanbase in china, the average international web novel readers don't really fond of this type of serious story, which may explain why so many of them reading this novel, expecting trium** and cool stuffs that the main character can do and then left unsatisfied and disapointed when they did not get what they expect - your average quick, cheap fun.

The story had potential when I first read started reading it but the author only overemphasizes the tragedy of the novels setting. There are no ups to the story. There is only a an ever spiralling depression. Nothing ever works out for the MC so none of the tragedies really mean anything after awhile. When the MC sees the 20th child being eaten by cannibals it gets old. The plot is non existent and none of the characters matter because they all die or are left behind fairly quickly. Overall there are a few novels that i don't rate well but this is once of the only ones I regret putting the time into reading. maybe I have stopped too early at around chapter 400 but so far its been a chore getting this far.
This Story is way to underrated in my personal opinion. The Story is deep and complex, the world backround the same, but hes always the same startingpoint (until around ch 800). When u wanna nitpick about the story itself, it is that alle the "human" fall very fast into Depravity, insanity etc. Now about the MC: Well the MC is actually a pretty nice guy but very cautious and selfish. But with every Setback, and trap he gets in he gets colder and more ruthless. But here is the point which makes the story and the MC very likable or hateable for the readers. Because the MC just doesnt learn... He gets his obsession that he is Human and when every Human falls into depravity he holds himself as "law abiding" "ordinary" etc And still he doesnt learn... He still is dumb enough to get in avery fkin trap, helps ppl that betray him later etc. And he gets more cold and ruthless- And he still doesnt learn... And the story more or less repeats itself how MC does his thinks, except that he gets more cold and ruthless, and he ignores more plight of others, but becaus of that he gets trampled over and over again. You might think now, that such a stupid MC is not worth reading over. And Yes you are "half right". The Ingenuity of the whole story is about to find out why such idiot was chosen, trapped, betrayed over and over again. Why does he stay that stupidly stubborn about staying "human" when he destroy one life after another, or later city after city. In my Eyes, the story is about how to strip his layers of Hope, humanity, emotions, confidence in such a way that he doesnt get, that his tsundere hero charakter is getting reversed step by step! But his naive and stupid obsessions are actually the one point that lets him stay as (anti)hero charakter without him noticing. the question now is, was he because of that chosen or was that unplanned and thats why no one can really defeat him^^ This story is fun because exactly that, it seems every step the mc does is planned, even his wins and loses, but is it really?^^ I dont know and thats why i keep reading
I have only read 130 chapters and here is my review. Definitely some of the most dark and tragic shit on this site and I'm actually loving it so far. If you like dark apocalypse theme novels this is for you. Also don't expect a happy ending ever if you are reading this. The only problem I have is after reading a bunch of reviews, I realized that he is still stuck on the third realm even after 800 chaps. I don't know if i can take the same kind of revenge repeat content without any power ups for another 600 chaps. Overall the content upto 130 chaps is definitely very good and the cruelty and dark stuff is just too good. If you like such content don't miss it. MC is OP compared to other humans and he really suffers a lot. I highly recommend at least upto 130 chaps
This is a great novel though.. is the translator from years is the one going to translate this? This is a great novel though.. is the translator from years is the one going to translate this? This is a great novel though.. is the translator from years is the one going to translate this?
I gave this story a 5 star for many reasons but the main one is constant character development, Im in (400+) chapters right now and the main cherecter constantly changes with the environment and development within the story.

well that is a good novel a lot of suspense and stress and actions hope this novel will get higher than the rank 100 it deserve to be there and very good job from the translator to bring it up thank you :)
poor writing quality. no use of any complex writing techniques, poor syntax, grammar and occasionally spelling. MC character is fairly unrelateable, and has little to no personal growth over time. he simply changes like a flipped switch with no build up or personal growth. the main redeeming feature is the basic premise of the world and it's new rules. reading it during it's free period, but anglophones should not spend any coins on the english version unless the author hires a good translator to correct his mistakes, and goes into more detail regarding his MC, his thoughts, and his emotional state.
I really don't know my stance on this novel. Is it worth reading? yes I guess. what is the problem? very messy story development, world building is also not very impressive. other than that is pretty good, character I good, side characters are also well developed. author has an amazing emotional writing.
i really enjoy this story for some reason. the cultivation is very slow but at the same time the mc won't meet enemy's that are way! above him, it's mostly just a stage above him. the world building is very interesting, i don't think i ever read something similar. such a sham that i almost catch up with the release, the chines one reach 1700 chapter, such a long journey to go/
the casual racism doe. Also way 2 manx characters. The translator choosing to keep many of the "items" names in chinese also doesn't help. Ye
This book is just an extension on the author's depraved mind because he just keeps adding characters only to kill them in like 100 chapters just to make the main characters feel miserable. Personally I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone The plot is shitty and no good comes from spending money on this book For you'll giving this book 5 stars, you really need to be checked mentally
YES FINALLY A STORY THAT SHOWS HOW QI ACTUALLY STARTS ON EARTH AND HOW PEOPLE ADAPT 👍👍👍👍👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🍵🍵🍵🍵🍵🍵
Short: A very complex novel, At the star its a usual post apocalyptic novel with a little twist with aliens, With MC finding out that the world is going to end in 2012 from a family book he is trying to translate. He also gets various cultivation/skills from it. You see him going through struggles while he is trying to find his family and keep them safe in the starting chapters, Filled with betrayals and intense fights. But as the original translator once said, All of it is actually a complex puzzle, Slowly (800+ Chapters) you start understanding Why he did what he did. Why is everything happening and all. I Don’t want to ruin it for you but it’s a really good twist. The author always gives you something unexpected. All in all A worthy read if you like Post apocalyptic novels and are able to keep reading till later chapters. Though MC does go on quite few Revenge feasts, 🤷🏻♂️ It’s a novel with a normal MC in a gory world, trying to find a little hope in dark times. Long: World: The usual Post Apocalyptic world, Colla**e of society, Extreme raise in crimes, Dark worldview of people, No rules to bind people, etc. But with a twist in the case of why it is happening. A really good one actually. I won’t ruin in here. Later on Aliens are also involved. MC: A normal 23 year old, Goes to forum to inform everyone that The End is coming in 2012 after learning about it, Despite calling himself Selfish and cold, He is quite kind hearted. I don’t blame him, I would also try to save a stranger kid if I could 🤷🏻♂️. Sometimes he does do very stupid things though, His main goal is to find and save his family, But he keeps getting distracted from him time to time, And makes bad decisions regarding them, Trust a lot of wrong people. Though a lot of it becomes clear later on its still irritating. Cheat: A seemingly ancient book which has various secrets, Cultivation sutras, Skills etc. MC need to translate it to understand the things. It’s actually pretty important book. Story Development: In short world it’s and endless struggle, No time is given to MC to take a breather, Sh.it keeps coming one after one, It’s a bit exhausting. The Author goes into depth about seemingly useless things again and again. Though the later half story gets a big twist which makes the whole story feel a lot better. Side Characters: Most of the side characters are just 2D temp ones, they have hardly any depth. They will die anytime suddenly. You never know. Overall it’s a giant piece of puzzle with small clues littered over arcs, You will need to have the patience to wait till 800-900 chapters to clear thing up.
