Wow, a quality novel, well atleast compared to the utter sub-human trash available so far.
MC is an expert who died from tribulation and reincarnated as a young man in a new world.
Due to the laws (not governmental laws, but spiritual/magical stuff) of the world he's in, he can't personally cultivate using the methods from his former world. Therefore, he must rely on his soul beast to cultivate, this is not an original idea, his soul beast is well known trash-tier, but with his OP past-life methods, it becomes stronger.
The way it's portrayed so far is what grabs my attention, there's young masters, but they don't act like arrogant d-bags. The author took the extra step to explain the feelings of side-characters to make them different then the "Oh so you're trash, hahaha". If you read it, you can see the difference compared to the mass produced garbage.
The world setting is pretty standard, yet the author takes the time to explain it, rather then giving us a cookie cutter template that we always see in other novels. He doesn't explain the world, but the differences in power systems between his former world and current.
The MC is an expert, so don't expect any character development. He's lived a full life already.
I haven't seen those cliché's where everyone mocks him on the daily, the attitudes and designs of other characters are different then regular novels.
In conclusion, there's not much difference so far (Chapter 20) with this novel and others, all though the genre of pets is cookie cutter, instead of taking it straight out of the package like other novels, the author has decided to explain things and increase the depths of other things.
Then again this is a C20 review, who knows if he goes full china #1 later.
