some comments seem to misunderstand, what he is saying is that as an educated Chinese in his past life he was taught to respect the dead, it is in no way meaning that other countries does not respect the dead, just that he was taught to do so

Putting aside Xi Wei who had been educated as a Chinese to respect the dead and to give them proper burials and even just thinking from the perspective of the surviving youngsters, leaving the corpses out to the brazen wilderness was not a nice feeling.

Overall a rather good novel. Those who sort of knows Chinese myths will already spoil themselves with some plots. MC is the main force moving the plot, and you can consider him involved in everything, willingly or not. Spoiler: MC is Li Chang Geng also known as Taibai Jinxing. The author used a rather not so big character from the Journey to the West as his MC, granted his myth was already there before Journey, but the image was overwritten. MC is overly calculating and extremely cautious, also overprotective. He is suspicious of everything that he didn't expect. If there is one path from A to B, he would plan out 10 paths instead, even adding multiple nodes, heck he might even be digging 10 tunnels that goes from A around to CDEFGHIJ and then backtrack back to A only to use the main path to B. He hides way too deep too. You see his cultivation as an ordinary Qi Refiner, but his true cultivation is actually an Immortal, but wait, his real cultivation is actually Daluo Golden Immortal, but wait, he is actually a Saint, but wait, his real real real cultivation is beyond the realms. Its like that. If you read this after reading Ancestor Minghe you would understand some flow of things but not all. The myths in Minghe is from the time Pangu split the Chaos and until the Heaven Dao is complete. According to the author himself, the story in Senior Bro is placed before and during the Investiture of the Gods and Journey to the West. He groups the two together, which makes sense somewhat considering the characters. The author also claims to be a myth lover. He wrote stories based on western myths in his younger age, and when he started writing on Chinese myths he just got too frustrated with how convoluted and messy the myths were recorded, so he uses them as the base to write his own version.

the investiture calamity is everyone who got their name listed will die, and then bound for life to work for the heavenly court, they became immortal too, so they are bound literally as long as the court exists, meaning neverending work

After the Great God-Conferment Tribulation, his name would have been in the Immortal Registry, and he would have nothing to do with the tribulation. How could the God-Conferment calamity fall upon him again?

in the myths the east is the mainland (china), east of it is the great sea, north is the north sea where kunpeng hangs out at, south is the hot area, central plains is where humans live, and the west is where demons and Buddhism are at, their idea is that china is the center of the world

The Great God-Conferment Tribulation was actually the process by which the Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Courts established the authority to dominate Heaven and Earth. The nominal cause was that Jade Emperor Hao Tian had complained to the Dao Ancestor that the Three Schools' disciples were rude and did not follow the orders of the Heavenly Courts. His title, as the ruler of the Three Realms, existed in name only. He did not have the dignity of a man, so he could not lift his head before the Queen Mother of the West. His manly grandeur had totally collapsed…

another reminder of the eventual coming of the investiture of the gods... mc really wanted his master to die huh, cos those who dies during the investiture will be automatically given a seat in the court depending on their current realm

After thinking about God Conferment, the cautious Heavenly Courts used their means to bestow rain…

note sunwukong stole a bunch of them during his time as a general of the court

If Qi Yuan managed to achieve something that would earn him rewards from the Heavenly Courts, he might even be able to live as long as Heaven Immortals.

houtian creatures, basically anyone born after the world has been created, xiantian creatures would be those born during the creation of the world

To Postnatal living beings who wanted to live long, becoming an immortal through the Heavenly Tribulation was suffering that could not be avoided.

my thought was wrong then, this is sometime before the investiture of the gods

The next calamity was going to be the Great God-Conferment War. He had to stay as far away from it as possible. Rather than trying to be named a Celestial in the Heavenly Courts, Li Changshou might do better cultivating on his own as quickly as he could. He would rely on the Heavenly Courts while it was in decline. Then, he would be made a Heavenly Court Elder…

So what i get from this is, the story is set in between the two ancient wars, the world is the ancient primordial world after pangu split chaos with his axe, and the thousand races are spread about, the Wu (translated as magic here) fought several times with other races, leading to the first great war. What he is talking about related to immortal du is the investiture of the gods in Chinese myth. The world seems to be sometime after the investiture. Earth is one of the many smaller worlds without cultivation, mc is on the main world. Minghe taught me a lot on this

the stronger his master is the better his backer would be, so less people would if ever try to offend him, so he can live his life more leasurely but I get a feeling his realm is actually higher than his master
