As always a great novel by Wang Yu. If you liked Demon’s Diary or A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality, than you will also enjoy this novel. In comparison with other cultivation novels, this one greatest strength lies in ****** a believable world, that apart from the protagonist, has side characters that have goals, strength and weaknesses and in the end, influence the world around him. Cultivation doesn't require you to "grit your teeth and endure", it requires planning, resources and thinking ahead of others to survive. All in all, it is a much more realistic approach to cultivation novels.

So, this novel is like Demon's Diary where the MC is just a weakling that uses items instead of his own strength? And also like a Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality where the MC gives zero fucks about any past romantic relationship and just leaves every single relevant main heroin by the wayside?

Good that you only focus on the things you didn't like. Hence, you already know that you won't like this novel. That's whats called a self fulfilling prophecy.

Yup. RMJTI can't do romance to save the authors life. And Demon's Diary just makes me feel like a P2W player in a video game that has more "coincidental luck" than those Japanese MC's that randomly trip over nothing and land in a girls cleavage.

RMJI is my favorite xianxia novel. And I think this is better than Demon's Diary. It is quite dry and relies heavily on plot armor though. The lack of proper romance doesn t bother me. In this novel romance is reduced to "hey i like that girl evn though i never spoke with her ever let's try to be with her no matter what"

What's even worse is the girl actually falling for him...

The best work of the author, with the best characters. However, the world building compared its other novels, I think a little weaker, but still have many chapters to change my opinion.

Ok, but is it harem though? Pretty important

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.
