    Ki is not a very good idea, he would be required to oversee every construction project. Or teach others I guess, a waste of time either way. Though I do agree that aliens' material sciences are a good way to make money in the construction business. Now that i think about it, it would be quite revolutionary for earth in general. Nice thinking mate!

    I would be fighting 'underground' for a few months before investing my money in real estate and earn passively with the rent I would be getting. Maybe I will run a company as well, I would have to think about that.

    I've been putting this off for a while now, mostly because in this novel I've been on and off a million times (and I stopped reading it on webnovel, though I keep voting, lol sorry, just not a priority in my very limited spending list). First of all the harem. I shall start by saying that I hate when an incredibly talented/intelligent/powerful indvidual, be them males or females, falls for an incredibly ordinary one, relative to them. I just don't find it realistic. It is far more realistic in these kinds of worlds for the exceptional to have multiple companions who are not really their equal. I believe almost anyone would make such a choice (and those who say they wouldn't I won't believe it until I see it, sorry). All this is to say that I am pro harem. That said, I do not agree with how the author did it. Nobody, unless they are bysexual, would agree to be in an harem without sufficient benefits, and they have them here, the problem is that they all love the MC, and that is not realistic. It seriously bothers me. It feels way too much like wish fullfillment fantasy, something that has no business being in such a high level novel. Not to mention how quickly he collects them and the sheer number, I can't even remember them any more, it's crazy. But, I repeat, it would make sense if they were like a true harem, where they are either forced (not nice but more likely) or a part of it only for the benefits. I get that the MC is super outstanding and handsome, but dude, he needs more than the minor authority of time to satisfy the basic requirements of even the least involved relationship between two people with the number of girls he has. Honestly I'm kind of hoping most of them decide to just leave and settle down with someone else. They serve no purpose anyways, other than being cocksleeves obviously. And if they have any sense of self respect, and are truly not with him for the benefits, such an outcome is without a doubt the most likely in the long run. Next is the fillers. I'm conflicted about them. I appreciate the fact that the author is creating a world that doesn't revolve around the MC and where there are exceptional individuals with their own stories and circumstances. I also love the world building and the importance given to history. However, I have to say that sometimes it's a little too much, there are several chapters where literally nothing happens, both from the point of view of the story and the knowledge explained. Also the evercrown saga is an excellent occasion to expand upon side characters and the ascendants, but damn, it's neverending. Now, the one thing that bothers me the most. The mood swings of the MC, and others as well. By that I mean the sudden "soft expression" he shows his lovers outta nowhere, it feels so fake and forced. He looks like a goddamn lunatic, not to mention condescending. I'm saying this here but this is actually a cliché in just about any cultivation novel, other than er gen's of course, he's a master after all. But boy do I hate it, that's not how real people behave. Then the good stuff. Some of it I mentioned above, magnificent job on world building, character development, and story development. In addition I would add great writing quality, there are some mistakes but that's normal. Stability of updates is also really good, I've seen there are some guys complaining about it but I've been following since the beginning and aside a brief hiatus (I seem to remember, probably) and some instances likely caused by rl I've never noticed any inconsistencies, moreover we should always remember that authors are people with their own shit going on and being dickheads about timely releases is not a rather entitled approach to take when it comes to reading in general, let alone lighnovels. FINALLY, the greatest point of strength of the novel is, in my opinion, the uniqueness of cultivation. NOT of the MC's cultivation, but of cultivation in general. Each person is different from the other and it is only right that their paths differ. It's always a disappointment to read the linear paths of cultivation and the "ridiculous" combat strength of the MC that somehow remains constant despite the fact that he keeps seizing advantages that would leave experts a hundred realms above him "green with envy", justifying it by saying that the difference between each realm in higher realms is greater, conveniently forgetting that each new advantage is added to the previous ones and the foundation grows with each new addition. This is something I have seen only a few succeed in, chief among them er gen, another I like a bit less (mostly because of the tragically poor choice of weapon and the fact that the world could not revolve any more arund the MC) is Awespec in "Grand Ancestral Bloodlines". Overall, the score is a solid five stars. The negative aspects are based on personal preferences so I didn't really consider them, and even if I did the last point more than mekes up for them. P.S. for the author. I hate Na Xinyi, she is taking credit for accomplishments that are not her own, without Wei Wuyin not only would she have become a yin couldron, but she wouldn't have been able to obtain a tenth of the strength she has, literally everything she is was given to her and dares to claim it as her doing, that's disgusting. She's not even intelligent something both Yifei and Baozhai are. All this is to say that while I understand she serves a purpose for the MC as a cultivation couldron, I hope he will place requirements to actually becoming his wife. His wives will become empresses and rule the neo-dawn starfield, they must prove themselves capable of leading and caring about their subjects, Yifei and Baozhai have already done so, that bitch hasn't, in fact, the slut cares about nobody but herself and her reputation, she is not fit to be empress. Should he ever die, she'll be going off on her own while the starfiel and everything he built crumbles apart. Even Lin Zyian is a better wife candidate and she's as worthless as they come, though at least she knows gratitude.

    fight scene in chapters 200-202 was fucking pathetic tho. Three idiots standing still and sending simultaneous attacks to each other.... man, I can't remember the previous ones but I really hope I never have to read something like that again.

    Long Tian frowned deeper at her explanation. Blue pupils, an odd aura... He genuinely didn't know about it. Even after recalling the original plot, there was nothing like this. Long Tian was merely a genius with a strong soul spirit, nothing more.

    "Earlier, you suddenly gripped my neck and your pupils turned an eerie blue. Also, your aura felt drastically different... it wasn't the aura of a cultivator. It was... something else," Ning Yuan said earnestly.

    Great novel btw. It's so rare to find originality in cultivation novels these days that I thought there was only ergen left to write the good stuff, and even he kinda let me down for how three inch world went from masterpiece to borderline garbage. The only thing I don't particularly like about Paragon of Sin is the emotional swings whenever a woman is involved, they feel extremely forced, though I guess that goes for 90% of the cultivation novels where the MC is "ruthless to his enemies and kind to his friends", nevermind the fact that it makes him look like a fucking lunatic. But I'm fine with that. Really. The issue is the excessive focus on "the warmth" he shows, it's weird as hell. What's also weird, and terribly unlikely, is the fact that every woman just randomly falls in love with him and seemingly can't wait to become a cock-sleeve to be used once every decade together with other just-as-pathetic women. But I knew what I was getting into when I read the harem tag so no problem. Anyways, has it been dropped? I'd appreciate a heads up.

    Because this novel is about an idiot using a broken book to cruise through life

    Upon quickly finding what they needed, Cain tossed his eyes up from the book and told Kali, "I think it would be better if we fix our cultivation in my room. One of the other abilities I can use at 5% mastery is Chaotic Concealment which will hide our cultivation level from anyone. This method would be safer than potentially getting randomly attacked on that planet."

    So the book has all the answers in the world... what is the point of this novel?

    He didn't need to take long as on the second page, it explained an ability named 'Chaotic Concealment' he can perform at 5% mastery. The book foretells that with this ability, nobody would be able to see through their cultivation level.

    I still don't get what part of them has anything to do with a dragon. Aside from their clothes of course.

    But now, once her brother masters this chaos energy, she could finally unleash all of her slumbering Dragon Pride!

    Thanks mate I could kiss you. I've been waiting for this for years. Btw, is it possible to have it all in the past tense? I can't remember how the original was but it feels kinda weird in the present tense. It's fine if you can't fix it, I'll just get used to it.

    Duel. This fic needs proofreading.

    The fighting had ceased, the instructors have stopped all the fighting, all except the dual happening. The crowd has gathered in a semi circle around the two cadets, watching with awe and excitement.

    can work only in the marvel universe. in the real world such a thing wouldn't do anything other than stunt or warp their growth

    Word to the wise, if you ever want to try and make someone truly loyal to your weird neonazi cult... don't torture their mind and body for three fucking years straight under the guise of making them 'better'. Three years of constant exercises, hand-to-hand training, weapons training, enhanced torture training, and lessons on what a great man Red Skull really was deep down.
