The start of this novel is like 5/10, because it was basically a copy of A Magus world (which is the copy of another novel...), but at around chapter 50 the plot starts to get really interesting. Especially the cultivation technique, the buddha one specifically, which I find really intersting. If this novel was more focused on this aspect, like how he adapts to life as a different person and showing his interactions as a new person in a different sect, it would been one of the best novels I've read. This kind plotline is what I love most in novels, which is why I like LoM and AWE. So this novel had a lot of potential. However, it didn't really delve much deeper into this and instead focused on the cliche sect competition and what not. So it was pretty disappointing. Yet even so, it is still very well written and there is a lot of logic and rationality behind the MC's actions and the world itself. Furthermore, the writing is quite sharp in a very nonchalant and restrained way and many times feel pretty sarcastic or satirical. For me, this novel had the potential to be one of the best novels I've read (surprising considering the title and how it started out) but even if it didn't like up to its potential its still very good!

Daily life of a cultivation judge

Yang Qing sighed as he gazed upon the black building that stood tall piercing the skies above with an inviolable aura around it. "The Order sure is black-hearted," he angrily thought as he made his way into the building begrudgingly. The building could be considered his home away from home and a source of endless grief for him due to its unforgiving working hours. The building housed the courtrooms of the Cultivation Order Society, an organization founded to maintain a semblance of order in the ruthless cultivation world of the southern continent who if left to their own devices would sink the whole continent to the ground. Due to how impetuous cultivators were, the cases never stopped. "Yi Jie, what do we have today?" "Two cultivators at the palace realm fought over a treasure and destroyed half of the territory of the blue deer kingdom in their fight, A rogue cultivator is suing the owner of the falling meteor blacksmith shop for selling him a faulty saber that keeps attracting lightning tribulations. A cultivator suffering from pill poisoning is blaming it on the white hilltop restaurant as he suspects they are feeding their spirit beasts pills to make them bigger and fatter. And the last case is 500 families are suing a cultivator by the name of Ren Fu for being negligent as a husband and a father whilst also pilfering their resources dry as he moves from place to place.," Awkward silence ensues........... Join me as we follow Yang Qing in his role as a judge in the Cultivation Order Society with cases and troubles that never seem to end. Fair warning the story has multiple POVs. Re-edited chapter (50/50) Second milestone (71/150) All support matters whether it's power stones, comments, reviews, golden tickets, subscriptions, or those who buy privilege chapters or even lurking readers..I welcome all your support in whatever format it comes in and I thank you for it, It really does mean a lot, especially to rookie authors like myself.
