    Due to the fact the author and this story are new, I'm giving this novel 4 stars. I hope you keep it up author, there are many parts of the story I really enjoy!
    The world building is excellent so far. A LITRPG cultivation novel based on concepts, with the MC having a mysterious background that gives her a solid advantage without it being too overpowered at this point. Clearly the author has already fleshed out a big part of this world, which is always great. Keep it up author!
    Despite the excellent world building, the writing and dialogue are incredibly clunky. Characters don't sound natural, exposition is forced, and the grammar is considerably bad. I can normally ignore small/medium grammar mistakes in stories, but this story is difficult to read due to these mistakes.
    In conclusion, the story has massive potential and has simply stumbled a little bit in its execution. The world building is excellent, the main character has an interesting background, and the power system is interesting. With a proper editor, this story could absolutely shine. I hope to revisit this story after some editing and change this to a 5 star review!
