That sucks. I tried to find pic related but the 1st volume is over 200-300 dollars while the 2nd volume was significantly more cheaper.

Another alternative translation I found is this one by someone named Katherine Liang Chew. But I've read some reviews that it does literal translations of the names of Chinese Deities. Who the fuck is "Purple Flying Cloud General Brother 7"? I've read various manga in the past, I can comprehend foreign sounding names. God I hate these kinds of translations. Plus the "Creation of the Gods" version has a higher page count and is recommended in that chart posted here >>21996572 so am I just going to have to bite the bullet and fork over the cash?

AFAIK there are only two officially published English translations of the Chinese novel Fengshen Yanyi (封神演義). They're both fairly old, rare, unscanned, needlessly expensive if they turn up on eBay, one of them is unfinished, and AFAIK both translations themselves are kinda bad.
