Review Detail of LaoTze in Rebirth Of The Urban Immortal Cultivator

This novel follows the cliche plot of an OP MC who was originally from earth, then became an OP cultivator within some larger universe, then reincarnates back on earth and goes about planning his ascendance to ever more OPness than before, while preventing tragedies that he was powerless to prevent previously. So, it's pretty paint by the numbers, but also ok to kill time with. The main noticeable feature of the novel is the way the MC consistently hides his abilities and give cryptic warnings that make him sound like an arrogant blowhard with no actual abilities, to lure people into underestimating him or trying to take advantage of him, then he turns around and claims they were arrogant know nothings when he finally reveals his prowess. His constant baiting of trouble, and the childish face-slapping games that the author portrays as him being the strong, silent type, is quite annoying and of course makes for plenty of predictable C-roll filler material. The world itself is utterly generic, and so far follows no rules-- the author introduces concepts in a slapdash manner as he feels necessary to keep the story developing. Of course there's the usual trope of thinking the Spiritual Qi on Earth is too weak for there to be powerful cultivators present, but as the MC grows in strength, appropriately strong enemies fall out of the wood-work for him to demonstrate his OPness. All in all, I'd say let tens of chapters build up and a time and binge them, to pass time. Otherwise there's nothing to be gained from this utterly generic novel.
