I have read the first 30 chapter and can say that it has good writing quality and stability of updates. The story development and character design isn't really for me. While it is decent, I find it rather too generic (good guy trope) and I found his reincarnation rather useless, maybe there will be a reason for that later but for now, all I see is a somewhat obedient little boy in the MC. He had merged with the previous soul, yet there is no fear, or worry, or even acknowledgement that he was killed. Where is the caution, he goes around worrying about his mother, yet why is that? He just came into this world and the memories doesn't seem to affect him, can you generate affection quickly for someone this quickly? If he does have memory of his life as prince then why is there no fear or even a thought about his murder. What is the reason that he wants to get strong? Is it revenge, to protect his loved ones, I still have not found a reason for him or the story. I see no tension or reason to follow the story, his sister seems far more interesting. Usually the environment of fighting for thrones make the characters mature, yet the MC seems to lack that. While the story seems to check most boxes I really did not get an interest in following the MC's story. His origin not really that interesting, his circumstance he seem to not care, his cheat and bloodline a bit generic. I expected more then this from Invincible Corruption Manual. Writing Quality - 5 Stability of Updates - 5 Story Development - 3 Character Design - 3 World Background - 4 The total score - 4

Right, for now, the MC will be a good guy trope like you say. But, dude the novel is about corruption, so his character will be changing soon afterward.
He had merged with the previous soul, yet there is no fear, or worry, or even acknowledgment that he was killed. Let me explain here, previously both Joey and the 5th prince had a fragmented soul. So, they are kind of a loser in everything. But, after Joey managed to merge his soul into a complete one, he developed the character you described above. Thanks, dude for your honest review. I like it.
why is there no fear or even thought about his murder? What is the reason that he wants to get strong? My answer, after he reincarnated multiple times in the 1st-floor test of the Heavenly Corruption Pagoda, he had already experienced enough about the different scenarios of life. So, he became like that. AND for the second one, the new world he reincarnated into was a dog-eat-dog world. Strength was everything in this world. So....
OK, I get what you are saying, but if that was the case he should be a bit more mature / scheming / and attempt to at least figure out who to stay away from. As a person who had experienced many lives there should at-least be acknowledgement of the plot against him and a reaction even if it is "this is too childish for me." or "I cant deal with this now." But also the many life of experiences should have given him a neutral characteristic and not "good-guy trope." It is still quite good, just lacking something for me. I plan to give it another go sometime and this is just my opinion, take it with a grain of salt.
