This is a story about the longevity fruit.

【Golden Five Chapters】

Chapter One: I've Changed My Mind. The preface before the main text briefly introduces the protagonist, Chen Changsheng,'s origins and upbringing, vividly portraying his cautious, insensitive, and often ill-tempered character. The protagonist travels to the capital to break off the engagement, only to be taunted and mocked by his partner. This vividly illustrates the world's perspective and the disparity in social status. The protagonist is proud, even willing to change his fate, so why not continue the engagement?

Chapter 2: Why? The protagonist insists on the engagement, angering the Divine General's Mansion, but they won't kill him. Even the heroine, Xu Yourong's personal maid, comes to dissuade the protagonist from giving up the engagement, urging her to stay silent, lest she die. The protagonist's identity and status are then introduced, along with Qiu Shanjun, her match. It seems that Chen Changsheng, at this point, is truly unworthy of Xu Yourong.

Chapter 3. It's a cheesy name, but it's my name. The protagonist calmly and earnestly told the maid his name, a name he had never been asked since entering the Divine General's Mansion. The people in the Divine General's Mansion were condescending, but the protagonist remained calm. After thirty-two mouthfuls of food finished the remaining pancakes, the protagonist's mood slightly fluctuated. He was still a little angry, but he decided to cancel the engagement. After all, his illness was difficult to cure. Meanwhile, inside the Divine General's Mansion, the owner was discussing killing the protagonist.

Chapter 4, Tiandao Academy. The protagonist follows a strict schedule, washes and eats before preparing to enroll at Tiandao Academy, the premier academy in the Divine Capital. This academy has produced countless talents for the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the applicants are overwhelming. The protagonist watches the bustling crowd, listening to the obscene and unpleasant words, remaining remarkably calm. Some outcomes are already predetermined.

Chapter 5: The Green-robed Youth, Thirty-Six. The first stage of the entry test: the Sensing Stone. Only those who pass the Sensing Stone test and reach the Marrow Cleansing Realm are eligible to enter the next stage. The green-robed youth, Tang Thirty-Six, had already reached the Sitting Meditation Realm during the test, radiant and a true genius. Chen Changsheng, on the other hand, naturally tested him as an ordinary person. He should have been eliminated, but he…
【Brief Comment】

"Fighter of the Destiny" mainly tells the story of Chen Changsheng, who, in order to change his fate, came to the capital of gods with a marriage certificate in a fictional world where humans, demons and monsters coexist. Together with a group of young people, he launched a desperate struggle against the forces of darkness, and at the same time he also gained love. Finally, he started his journey of rising as a powerful man who defied the heavens in the capital of gods.

This book is the only one of Mao Ni's works that I have read in its entirety. It's not that Mao Ni's books are bad, but the timing is not right.

When I read this book, it felt like I had opened a corner of the door to a new world.

I have read a lot of exciting online novels about cultivating immortals, and I have also read some lingering and sad novels. I have also tried some urban hilarious novels, two-dimensional silly novels, supernatural horror novels, etc.

This book is one of those that can make me calm down after reading it, and then make me read crazily again after calming down.

The protagonist of this book, Chen Changsheng, is a meticulous and conscientious person. Although a genius, he is often rather dull and lacks passion. This may be related to the environment he grew up in, the numerous difficulties he later encountered in his quest to change his destiny, or his subsequent rise to Pope, where he cares deeply about the world and travels extensively to save lives and maintain world peace.

Without a calm but strong heart, it is impossible to do this!

For all these reasons, Chen Changsheng gives people the impression that he is not very cheerful.

The female lead, Xu Yourong, is also a gifted and intelligent woman who fully understands Chen Changsheng's thoughts. Their relationship is sincere and delicate, and while not overly passionate, they make for a heart-wrenching couple. Furthermore, their future together is likely to be as peaceful as water, with even a quarrel becoming a luxury.

As for the demon princess Luoluo's transformation from innocence to worry about love, it is also a necessary process of human growth.

The Seven Laws of the Divine Kingdom each have their own unique characteristics, especially the eldest brother Qiu Shanjun. Although he is known as the Divine Dragon and is the first of the younger generation, he finally decided to stay in the North Sea, waiting for the two mountain people to die, studying the secrets of the demon race's reproduction, and continuing his new relationship with Nan Ke.

Tang Sanshiliu, beneath the appearance of a bohemian nobleman, is a meticulous person. The crisis and burden of his family did not crush him.

Mao Ni's characters are always vivid, full of flesh and blood and individuality, never stereotyped. Even the humblest characters have extraordinary missions. Mao Ni's writing is naturally undeniable, and his title of "Five Young Masters of the Central Plains" is well-deserved. I even think he deserves to be number one. This is mainly due to his diverse writing styles, not just fantasy, history, or science fiction. I believe that if Mao Ni were to write about urban life, he would also be able to create a brilliant sky.

Furthermore, in May 2016, "Fighter of the Destiny" was adapted into a web series by Tencent Pictures, Mango TV, and China Literature. The plot, characters, and novel are completely unrelated. Especially with Qiu Shanjun being so evil, I really want to kill him on behalf of Nan Ke.

Film and television adaptations are a dangerous business, especially for excellent online literary works, which require even greater caution. It's not that book fans are demanding, but the gap between imagination and reality makes it really difficult to adapt.

【to sum up】

This book is worth reading carefully by all readers, so that they can feel the charm of the author's words, the entanglement of fate between characters, and the righteousness and hatred between races.

As for what happened after the Holy Light Continent, let’s not go into details.

【Cang's Ramblings】

This book is the only one I have read from beginning to end.

I hadn't come to the starting point yet.

Although the story is said to have a bad ending.

But compared to the TV series, the novel is dozens of times more exciting.

This also leads to the fact that I basically don’t watch TV dramas adapted from fantasy.

I have also read some of Mao Ni's books sporadically.

Besides lamenting that the old man is getting older and more Buddhist, his writing style is also becoming more casual.

Authors at this level basically don’t have to worry about royalties.

He is also one of the few IP adaptation kings on Qidian.

His situation is just like what Xue Zhiqian said about Eason Chan before. He can sing, release albums, and hold concerts peacefully without having to appear on any variety shows.

My situation is similar to Lao Xue's. If it weren't for promoting my own books, who would be willing to write so many book reviews for no reason?

Isn't it just to gain some nutrition and expand sales?

Many online writers live a solitary life, and not only do they not have any recommendation votes, they also do not have any recommendation positions.

But they still persist silently and generate electricity for love.

No one knows when their love will be exhausted and no longer generate electricity.

I have met many authors like this recently, and I can’t help but feel nervous!
The book collection building is open for you.

Welcome to the paradise of book reviews!
