r/RBOW

I have a very simple question. Usually I read these kinds of novels in e-pub format after they are complete or in the case of Shadow Slave which is ongoing I read it on a pirate site.

For RBOW I decided to start on webnovel, but after 30-50 chapters Webnovel locks the chapters. I am frankly unwilling to pay to get new chapters but since I am reading daily and I am caught up, I wonder if it will be an issue?

My question is whether new chapters will continue to be free in perpetuity, or whether I will have to start watching ads or if the new chapters will simply be stuck behind a paywall?

Not much happens. Songyan counts his money. Turns out Bull is a gooner. Songyan writes his story under the scrutiny of Xiaoqing. The next day her tells the story and then runs into Ren Youyang, who offers to take him to the Zhen household so that he can ask about training. Master Zhen doesnt question him about the day before. But the distinguished guest knows songyans intentions.

Why are chapters content is so less?day by day the content is decreasing. Are there any rules from webnovel contract to minimise the content until free chapters are over?

Not too much happened these 2 chapters. Songyan went to the entertainment hall for the encounter the guest of the Zhen household told him about. He comes across Ren Youyang, who is a true disciple of the True Spirit Sect, which is a prominent sect. He is also in the Orchid Rankings

After some socialising, a guard tells Ren that 2 people are tailing Songyan, one is someone from the Zhen household, and another is a seemingly ordinary man.

Songyan leaves so Ren can investigate, where he runs into Chang'an, who compensates him for helping with the affair to do with his master.

Ren appears and tells songyan that he couldn't catch the guy tailing him

Sometimes when reading their interractions i wonder what their relationship is leading to, sonyan is interested in her just coz he thinks she's a noble (which she is) and is trying to build relations with her for the future His reaction to finding out she's a snake Yao was kind of anti climatic and he seems to have gotten over it so quickly and doesnt care even tho Its a BIG DEAL, beings like her shouldnt exist in the mountain and seas realm due to the heaven - earth separation Meanwhile Yaoqing herself is mostly interested in Songyan's stories and it seems to be the only thing sticking her with him, although i believe it goes deeper, we know that sonyan was a historical storyteller, he recently started telling fables after his "amnesia" and she knew about him before then before coming to find him at Dangkag temple, so it simply wasnt for his fables but something else I was first suspecting she had something to do with the secret classics but maybe there's something more? And i wonder if she's going to be a lasting character in the story, especially when we finally head to the Jianghu

The guest The Zhen household wanted Songyan to tell stories to seems to be able to read minds, though he doesnt seem to harbour ill intent. This is similar to when Daly was going through Klein's mind, though he had the grey fog to protect his secrets. Songyan isn't that lucky.

Next chapters will probably be him visiting that man to get answers

Songyan finds out that the original Songyan copied down the Classics of Mountains and Seas before selling it. It was also revealed that the Zhen household were the original owners of the Secret Classic.

Songyan goes through the different divine beasts and the effects of consumption for some of them. He notices that some divine beasts have more clauses in their description than others, corresponding to strength most likely.

He also learns of Celestial Thearches, which may be a title upon reaching a certain level of strength.

Songyan learns basics of martial arts from Nuansheng.

First you need to refine Qi and train ur apertures. This is the initial realm where you begin your foundations. Then you can actually start learning martial arts.

The human realm is the first one, with 9th, 8th and 7th ranks. You are barely stronger than a normal human here

The order of realms is

Initial Realm, Human Realm, Great Proliferation Realm, Dharma Realm, Heaven-Man Realm, Spirit Platform Realm

Most people get stuck at Great proliferation realm Most their lives, and the Dharma realm is where you become a Grandmaster.

Furthermore, cultivating multiple martial arts with overlapping apertures can lead to qi deviation, madness, or death. Though some arts can overlap, eg one of a snake to one of a dragon.

For his service, the Zhen household offers to help him find a hall to begin refining his Qi to begin his journey as a martial artist

Xiaoqing is revealed to be a snake yao.

Chang'ans master goes missing, so him, songyan and and Bull go to search for him, only to find his dead body. They report this to the Zhen household, who take the matter into their own hands.

Other than this, Songyan continues preparing and telling stories.

Is xiaoqing a snake yao who turn into human or is she a human who turn into snake using transformation technique. I think its most likely the first but I dont understand what ding songyan thougnt of xiaoing. Does he think she is a snake yao or human who can turn into snake because heaven and earth connection has been severed, so such beings can't exist.

And also in recent chapters why does moving through walls and teleportation got anything to do with connection between heaven and earth? Why does he think xiaoqing can't do it?

I mean as far as I know. Among all his other books. This novel's got the most hype and early attention.

View Poll

I wonder if CF will follow a similar pattern to COI instead of LOTM, with Lumian advancing sequences together with other characters in his team, because I'm kinda interested in the idea of the three siblings learning matial arts and progressing in power together.

ALL MY HOMIES LOVE DING BULL

(Ignore chapter ten.)

The power system of lotm and rbow is very similar just like sequences ,it has ranks.and different sects offer different cultivation just like churches in lotm does. The consumation process is very similar. I think there must be a way for consuming them without developing physical changes ,similar to acting method

Not much happened these chapters. The trio found Chang'ans masters corpse, and reported it to thr Zhen household as Ding Songyan assumes its related to his own disappearance. The zhen household found a book on thr master and another body buried nearby, who thry assume to be the one to have stolen the Secret Classic.

Other than that, because of Songyan's great service, the Zhen household offers to get a hall for Songyan to refine his Qi if he wants to join a sect and practice martial arts.

We learn the order of realms fully

Initial Realm, Human Realm, Great Proliferation Realm, Dharma Realm, Heaven-Man Realm, Spirit Platform Realm

Most disciples spend the whole lives stuck in the Great proliferation realm, and dharma realm is where you become a grandmaster.

Yes I know im late. I had an exam unfortunately. Just read the chapters. Chapter 14 didnt have much, just Songyan telling stories, getting food. Then he visits Nuansheng to thank her.

She gives him info on cultivation. It's expensive to become a martial artist unless sponsored, and the Brightnight sect only takes in people once a year if I remmeber correctly. Otherwise u need to be really talented, from a distinguished background, or have a master take interest in you.

We then started to learn the process and the levels. First is the initial stage/realm or life realm where you train your aperture which is basically the core where qi comes out of and circulates your body if im interpreting it correctly. Think of this perhaps to be like how Arthur leywin formed a mana core early by mediating and gathering ambient mana in the beginning after the end.

Then you enter the mortal realm, Which non martial artists call Ranks 9 8 and 7, since they dint know much. This is the lower realm. This is basically identical to lotm, sequences 9 8 and 7 being lower sequences. Ay the human realm, you are hardly stronger than a regular human and things depend more on your weapons, equipment, will power. Nuansheng said that if a rank 7 isn't careful then someone of the nineth rank can kill them. We know Klein killed a sequence 7 magician as a sequence 9 so it adds up.

Also, we know that you must follow a path of martial arts where apertures don't overlap, or else learning a superior one where they do could lead to madness, qi deviation or even death. Exactly like what happens if you try and take a potion for another sequence in lotm

However, some overlaps don't have negative effects if they're under a similar umbrella I assume. The example Nuansheng uses is a snake martial art and then moving on to a dragon. Just like being able to switch to a neighbouring pathway in lotm

The similarities are there and its nice to see the power system develop. Again I feel like Songyan will choose or at least develop into some sort of dragon martial art.

We also see that Xiaoqing isn't as innocent as she seems, and practices a snake martial art. Perhaps to begin with Songyan will learn a snake martial art from her and then advance to a dragon.

Good chapters overall
