This is one of the best CN I have read. I am reading the MTL because it was just too interesting for me, don't worry no super spoilers here. But I would compare this CN with Game of thrones, many sub-plots are told but in the end everything comes together in a awesome, tragic, epic way. In the beginning it might feel like the typical reincarnation trope, but the thing that make this one stand out is aside from the way its told (GoT style) the amazing World Building by the auhtor. I have read throne of magical arcana but this one here is soooo much better (bigger world) and the author can handle it really well as to when to put which kind of information, and to the reader it feels like gradually uncovering a treasure, or putting pieces of a puzzle to make it whole. Very enjoyable. Small spoiler, also very interesting that he hasn't been the first person to arrive in this world. Imagine someone (other kind of MC) to have already arrived some time (hundreds of years ago) in this world and that person went the kingdom-building road, becoming stronger, building a faction and becoming an emperor and shaping the world into the modern way (steam technology, industrial revolution). Lol, but our MC is clearly going another way (solving, discovering mystery) but still gets help from the past in an unexpected way :) There are about 200 classes( 22 paths to godhood, and each paths has 9 levels/sequences requiring certain potions/materials/ceremonies) and it's always interesting to learn more about this power system as the author is feeding the readers with bits and pieces of new information. There have been 5 epochs in the creation mythology, the current era is in the 5th epoch. In the first epoch the creator was 'created', in the second and following the creator got split into the 7 new gods who created the humans and established their churches (each have their own special sequence paths). But there are still a lot of mysteries surrounding the 'true history' that will be solved along the way (there are also evil churches, organsisation worshipping other deities). MC has the unique power/access to a different dimension. Origin is a mysterie, this dimension gives him certain powers that he uncovers along the way. But the most important thing is that he can pull other 'random' people into this dimension and he gradually established his own hidden organisation where evry member picks the name of a tarot card to maintain secrecy. MC is the 'fool' and the joke is that the other members believe he is a sort of god and fear or revere him. He can control the space and can hide his body/face. In the real world MC is also trying hard to become more powerful so that he can get back into his real world. There is no 'real' cultivation, only the sequences via potions. But people need power/money/whatever to get those but even then these powers aren't without risk ... I love the characters, author's ability to write emotionaly is superb ( and I am only reading the mtl version so that means something). Get ready for an emotional rollercoaster *snif snif*. What I would critizise is that as of me writing this (mid volume 2), author isn't putting enough emphasis on each member of MC's hidden organisation equally. One specific member gets a lot of background story, another a bit less and then another very little. But that's the only thing for now.

Well you should read on man. There is one more sequence in each path. But I believe the author did justice for each character.
