At-the-standard for world building, nothing exceptional. Has Gu, much like reverend insanity, but they are not at the center of the martial arts in this, as from the first 20 or so chapters, no one but the MC seems to have any. Importantly, whatever the update schedule for this, you may be best served if you only read 1 chapter per day, or space them out as needed so you forget what's going on in the story, because if you don't forget, the chapters will remind you of everything each chapter. It is excessively repetitive, and frequently will pull things like "he beat cultivators above his cultivation. he was able to contend with those stonger than himself. this meant he could beat people he normally could not." If that^ reads poorly to you, I really can't say the style of this story will treat you much better. TL;DR Entertaining, headache inducing repetitiveness (personal experience)

426: 272 Ch. So far, the novel has significant flaws. If it could be summarized in simple steps, things have been as follows: 1.He finds a woman he wants to brainwash. 2.The place where he is undergoes a change (caused by the appearance of a treasure for some reason). 3.He decides to stay within the safety of his refuge. 4.By sheer luck, treasures he didn’t bother to seek come to his doorstep effortlessly. 5.He creates a new creature with insane abilities (something he doesn’t fully exploit). This cycle repeats again and again throughout the story so far. The Protagonist's Attitude He’s entirely afraid of getting involved in treasure hunts and fights. If fights do occur, the MC never fights directly but uses his clones instead (a typical case of fearing that stepping out of the sect will result in a stronger cultivator killing him for no reason). The protagonist mentions that in his past life, he was an otaku/hikikomori, which heavily influences his decision-making. I can’t help but compare him to Rudeus from Mushoku Tensei, a character with a similar background: someone with no purpose in society is transported to another world. But unlike our beloved bug-lover, Rudeus undergoes character development, stepping out of his comfort zone to face the new reality he finds himself in. #HateTurtles... Brainwashing In this story, there isn’t just one form of brainwashing; in my view, there are almost two sequential types. The first occurs when the MC triggers love in the love interests. The second comes with the “infection” of the protagonist’s unpleasant attitude, which erases the individual qualities of the love interests over time. The protagonist is like an amorphous blob that absorbs and destroys everything it touches. I’m not entirely against brainwashing. Using any “golden finger” to survive in a brutal new world is logical. However, the previously mentioned changes are what irritate me. Luck As mentioned in Step 4, the protagonist is excessively lucky to the point of exhaustion. He doesn’t have permanent enemies—just walking money bags delivered to his door. Those annoying characters? Remember the guy chasing the "beauty" or that relative (cough cough father) or other entity opposing the MC's union with said beauty? Well, if they exist, wait for their death because they’ll never harm the MC. It feels like the author simply eliminates them, so don’t expect plots or anything like that. Brief Mention of Positives The story seems to show glimpses of solid world-building. Kingdom-building elements are relatively well-executed. Fights are decent. Like sugar-free soda—more or less satisfying. Finally, other sources mention that the protagonist’s character changes slightly later on and that some positive aspects of the story improve. However, as the saying goes, “Seeing is believing,” said the blind man. I hope they keep releasing more chapters. It’s not the best novel I’ve read, but I’m curious about the new bugs and waifus that will appear. Sincerely, A man who enjoys harems.

Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

After being reincarnated in a world of Gods, Demons, and Great Emperors, Wang Wei embarks on a journey to bear Heaven Mandate, proves the Dao, and proclaims himself a Great Emperor--a Supreme Being that overlooked Myriad World and Races. However, his Dao involves despising fate and its encompassing glory. So what awaits our protagonist on his journey full of vicissitudes to defy and even control fate? While he controls the fate of countless races and worlds, is fate playing with him? Can he escape the very shackles of fate that he controls? Better Synopsys: After an unknown cosmic accident that enveloped the Earth, Wang Wei was reincarnated into a magical world of spiritual cultivation. This world was composed of powerful Demons, cunning and brutal Devils, ruthless and indifferent Gods, detached and ethereal Immortals. More Importantly, Great Emperors--Supreme Beings that stand above everyone and everything, even life and death itself. Despite being born in one of the most powerful sects in the world, Wang Wei was placed under tremendous pressure when so many expectations were placed on him by his sect due to the fact they have not cultivated a Great Emperor for countless millennia--an act which threatened the fundamental status of his family, friends, and sect. On top of that, Wang Wei was not one of the chosen few of this world that was granted special gifts by Heaven, thus further aggravating his circumstances. However, he did not retreat in the face of adversity. With the mindset that “If Heaven does not give me, I shall take it for myself”, Wang Wei begins to plan his rise to the top with a brilliant tactical mind and the help of his mysterious soul so that one day he will become a Great Emperor that not only control his fate but the fate of all lives in existence. This story has a similar setting as Emperor Dominion, I am a True Villain, and Scoring the Sacred Body of the Ancients from the Get-go. If you enjoy this type of story, then you will enjoy my story. The first 30 chapters or so have many problems story-wise, so please bear with it as I was just beginning as a writer. However, I promise the story gets better afterward.

Reborn as a Mountain: I Defy the Heavens with a Smile

When a mountain comes to life, awakening its consciousness, it takes on another form—a Mountain Spirit. And that’s me reborn with extraordinary Divine powers. Want to know what these divine powers are? Well, one of them allows me to accelerate herb growth—up to one hundred times faster! Impressive, right? But wait, there’s more! I also possess a ‘golden finger’—which is ‘Space-Time’ system that lets me fish for lost techniques, weapons, pill formulas, and other treasures from the rivers of time and space. With these at my disposal, I’m sure to become stronger, at least stronger than the beautiful sect master who claims my mountain as her personal retreat and constantly drag me into her matters. It’s not an easy life, but no need to worry! I’m not just any spirit—I’m a human spirit born from a mountain, which means I have an extraordinary talent for cultivation. To top it off, my system was generous enough to grant me a divine cultivation technique right from the start. There’s just one tiny problem: it’s a dual cultivation technique, and I need a partner to cultivate it. So, I had no choice but to convince the sect master’s stunning disciple to help me out. I mean, it’s not like I’m after her gorgeous long legs, her curvaceous thighs, or her… well, you get the point. I’m just a humble cultivator trying to grow stronger by any means necessary. If only she’d run into some trouble, so I could swoop in and save the day. That would make things a lot easier for me… but alas, life is never that simple. Still, I’ll find a way. With my Space-Time system, my mountain’s power, and a little charm, I’ll outgrow this mountain and surpass everyone—even the sect master. And maybe, just maybe, I’ll enjoy the beauties along the way. *** No NTR, No Yuri, No Yaoi *** LinkTree- https://linktr.ee/Around_The_Moon Discord- https://discord.gg/zTgR9VFduX
