The beginning of the novel was fine but the novel becomes a generic mess of face slapping and the mc just mass powering up later on in the middle of the novel. There are constant background mobs giving their useless opinions. The first major arc was a mess of a slop. The second major arc begins with young master face slapping and that continues for a while. There's also very little character development as every character are 1d or 2d. As for the mc, he not memorable because I can't remember anything unique to him beside him always killing and getting stronger. Overall, the novel is nothing new. If you want a mc who gets strong fast with enemies constantly underestimating him then give this a go.

haha XD, thanks for the review. Seeing how the author couldn't even keep his 1 character consistent says much for the future of the novel.

A lot of people actually like these type of novels, sadly.

There's pretty much nothing about the family pass 100+ chapters. It's as if the author forgot about them. So you're good. I wouldn't say the MC is evil but he's someone who doesn't give a shit about what others think. In short, he's more good than evil.

No romance so far in 240 chapters. Looks like there's not going to be any based on the MC being steadfast goal towards invincibility.

Trash. I started reading with the thought that the novel wouldn’t rely on the generic Chinese tropes like humiliation, arrogant young masters, background mobs who won’t stop yapping for a third of the chapter in almost every chapter, and hypocritical two-faced mofos. The MC, once the genius of the village and praised by everyone, gets his dantian destroyed by people from a rival village. Instead of showing any sympathy, his fellow villagers treat him with disdain and even talk badly about him behind his back. Everyone turns out to be a hypocrite except for the village chief and one little boy. The village chief wants to use a healing pill to help the MC, but everyone else gets greedy and acts like they have a say in it. Mind you, the healing pill belongs to the village chief and no one else, so who are they to tell him what to do with it? Then the hunting captain steals the pill for his son and replaces it with a defective one. The novel is already showing signs of horrible writing with shallow characters. You’re either good or evil, nothing in between. It throws in all the worst Chinese tropes within just 20 chapters. Then there’s the MC’s golden finger. It helps him master skills faster and even deduce better versions of those skills, but it requires pills or something similar to work. While that sounds simple, the way the author writes it is completely uninteresting. Overall, I’m dropping this novel at around 20-something chapters. I don’t see it getting any better, but I’d be happy to be proven wrong.

It's nothing special. The MC's golden finger is ridiculously overpowered, but he doesn't fully exploit it, which is pretty frustrating. He collects women, but they serve no real purpose in the story other than acting as cultivation furnaces to speed up his progress. They add nothing to the plot or character development. The novel is also filled with unnecessary filler. Every chapter wastes about a quarter of its length on background characters yapping about nothing important. It adds absolutely nothing to the story. On top of that, the MC has an insanely overpowered clone ability. He can create around 100 clones, each retaining 100% of his original strength. But guess what? He barely uses it. The only thing he does with it is send one clone out to search for treasures. When facing large groups of enemies, he never takes advantage of his clones at all. Later on, when demons invade the human world and far outnumber the humans, the MC acts all worried despite how brokenly powerful he is. It’s like he doesn’t even realize his own strength. I could go on, but let’s move on. The characters are completely shallow. Every enemy acts the same, fights the same way, and repeats the same lines. It gets so repetitive that I end up skipping fights altogether. Everything feels artificial and one-dimensional, almost like the MC is in a dream where everything conveniently works in his favor. I have to admit, the beginning was good and had potential. But after chapter 300, and now at chapter 584, every arc and event feels like a repetitive cycle. The story and writing never evolve beyond a flat, one-dimensional experience. Overall, this novel had promise, but it eventually became dull and predictable, both in storytelling and writing quality.

My take after reading 245 chapters. The MC in this story is overpowered. He has never lost a fight or even come close to losing one. He is not exactly a good person, but he is not a bad one either. I would say he is crazy at times. We meet his family and sister, but the author seems to forget about them later on. There are barely any of the usual obnoxious Chinese cultivation tropes in this novel. The MC’s golden finger is pretty much forgotten later on. One thing that gets annoying is that every single enemy underestimates the MC and then dies to him. Even after hearing about his strength, new enemies refuse to believe it and still challenge him, only to meet the same fate. It gets really repetitive. The story follows the same cycle. An enemy provokes the MC. The MC stomps them. A new enemy underestimates the MC for no reason despite his clear track record. They provoke him. They die. This pattern repeats over and over. Most characters do not seem to have a brain. The power levels are all over the place, and the world-building is almost nonexistent. All we know is that there is an empire, invading enemies, a demon country, noble families, and something beyond the mountains. After more than 200 chapters, the MC is still in the same place, and there is no clear plot at all. The translation is also kind of iffy, with bad sentence structures. Albeit, it's many times better than mtl. Overall, if you enjoy martial arts themes with fast-paced, action-packed fights and an unstoppable MC rising to invincibility, then you will probably like this. By the way, the MC is not a coward, so rest assured.

It's meh, not my cup of tea. Seems very generic. I didn't get hooked in within 20 chapters so I'm not going to bother reading it. If you like futuristic space power stuff then you might like this one. If you don't like futuristic space power stuff then I suggest you turn away. It's just a suggestion though so it doesn't hurt to read 20 chapters and see if you like it. As for the mc's golden finger, he can take in dead people's soul and copy their skills but it obviously comes with downsides. The mc has to solve any resentment or regret the soul has. If the mc doesnt then he will get effected by the souls lingering obsession. Overall, this kind of golden finger just feels like a plot device. It feels like any plot is going to be centered around the mc absorbing the souls of a strong person and then having to resolve the resentment of that person which will prob lead to more stronger enemies and cycle and repeat. That's just my take on it within the 20 chapters. Let me know if it's any different.

The novel is pretty good so far but the author loves dragging conversations or inner monologues. Sometimes they take up a third of the chapter. It feels like such a waste. It's also pretty slow paced. 81 chapters and he has not enter the 9th grade realm yet. Martial realms go from lowest to highest, 9th grade-1st grade.
