For all of these five star reviews on this book, i guess i will have to be the equalizer; i read up to chapter 46 today, and let me tell you; my day was wasted on trash, don't read this book, don't waste your time, there are so many better books on qidian, i don't even understand how this is trending, but i will list a few issues so you can have a general idea of what you're getting into with this. 1. Science and magic is portrayed as complete opposites able to completely replace the other, this boils down to the world he lives in not even having math or physics, just magic. 2. There was mention of a cultivation technique with the old mans necklace ring, which would allow him to save the world, he promptly forgets about it and doesent remember within the next 40 chapters, idk if he ever remembers. Keep in mind that those 40 chapters span a time period of about 2 years. Yup. 3. The author mentions the characters ages etc. But forgets to mention their mental age, which is important because all of them seem about 5-10 years younger mentally than they should be; especially the 16 year olds. 4. The mc tries to lay low by being dismally bad at studying and almost getting expelled if he wasnt actually a crouching tiger hidden dragon, which he is, but hes dismal at that too; as under the examination he is measured to be better than everyone else... how to be low key: 1. Become the trash on the bottom of society, 2. Become the divine leader of the leaderboard within seconds, 3. Do it all in the presence of the whole school to be sure they notice and gossip about it, 4. Piss of the strongest existence in the whole city, because u have beef with him but u still wanna lay low... wait? The magic system is pretty pathetic aswell, though i didn't really see its potential during the 40 chapters, add onto a bunch of inconsistencies, some sexist remarks and an 'in general' scaredycat useless horndog mc what do we got? (btw the whole draw was the idea of a badass mage owning people within his own ranks, but i lost faith pretty quickly as he is basically op by virtue of deus ex machina ,or even worse; op by old man he paid respect to being hidden expert with tons of priceless treasures to help him along. There is no reason to root for him, atleast not as far as i saw, and he definitively isn't even slightly badass.) Apparently a trending story on qidian... what a joke. Lets see qidian delete this review, i'm curious if they actually do. Oh btw i rate it 1 out of 5 stars because i don't think the release rate matters when it comes to quality, in fact it might be in detriment to it. As for the writing quality, i don't only consider grammar, but overall enjoyment of the plot and characters and motivations. Cause the stuff connecting that stuff isnt air, u have to use writing to connect ****, unless you are making an encyclopedia, where its enough to put the information in alphabetical order.

Watch Anime if you have difficulty in understanding initial plot. Or Comic. I have read up to 2500 Chapters, story only gets better and better.

There were a plethora of issues with this book and i tried the manga, i did not try the anime and i will not be trying it either, even if it gets better than this i can only imagine it going from trash to mediocre, either isn’t worth my time or effort. If an adaptation is neccesary to understand the source material, the source isn’t really up to standards now is it?

Warlock of the magus world. The first dozen chapters might be unappealing for the constant "!" sign but it turns into a masterpiece later on. MC is no pushover, he belongs to lawful evil alignment.

Rebirth of a broken demoness; this is a swords and magic kinda novel with a cunning mc and a magic system based off of philosophies, i really reccomend it if you like selfish/anti-hero mcs. Super Gene; this is a futuristic sci-fi kinda cultivate to become immortal novel, it is very long and the general quality of it remains pretty consistent with few plotholes, though the mc is very lucky. King of Gods; same as Super Gene kinda but not based in a futuristic world and the cultivation is more traditional in comparison to the one written in super gene. These two are novels i wouldn’t reccomend if youre looking for quality though, i reccomend them because they are like this book, quantity, except the overall quality doesen’t leave inconsistencies that break immersion. If you want GOOD quality novelsthat last long/semi long then read on; Daoist gu/ Immortal Revenant; my favourite cultivation novel, the mc isnt lucky, he fails at times, and is really not perfect, however he is a genius and works way harder than anyone else, he is also very selfish and ruthless and not particularily into romance/women. Doesent mean hes into men though, it just means he keeps to himself if he can help it. Its name on this site is immortal revenant, but i wrote daoist gu incase you wanted to read the mtl, even though its horrendous and barely readable, as the novel itself made me want to for the first time brave such a horrendous experience. By the way the cultivation system in this world is a bit special. And the mc’s goal is eternal life. There is also Dark King, its not being translated anymore but the mtl isnt horrendous, and the story is kinda similar to daoist gu, except its in a post-apocalyptic world with zombies and monsters, there is romance, but the plot is based around the mc’s harsh mentality/genius so the romance is kindof a device to harden the mc’s mind, so expect a lot of betrayals etc. Two.point.o ; this novel isnt very long and its kind of a magic and swords world/trapped in a game world but the personalities and emotions described make the novel feel like a movie, it’ll raise your heartbeat at the very least if you care about the mc. Immortal mortal; this book is decent and finished, kinda like king of gods, except the guy rebirthed from earth. God of Slaughter; similar to earlier cultivation novels but the mc is unusually ruthless, though there are love interests(the only harem book ive written so far in this list.) but he isnt romantically into them, only sexually. Similar to the cultivation novels but a bit more scientific in its approach is «warlock in a magic world» the novel is finished and one of my alltime favourites, though the mc is very ruthless/selfish. Maybe you see a pattern by now; yes i like ruthless/selfish/cunning mcs though some(like two.point.o and super gene and king of gods) isnt super cunning/kinda evil) By now this should be enough to occupy you for a long time, if you have any specific requests in relation to genre/type of story i can come back and give you more reccomendations within it.

Ah, i should also mention that book, release the witch, its a rebirth from earth into a worlds prince that hiddenly recruits witches and fights the church in order to develop science, its a pretty good magic/ kingdombuilding novel if you havent read it yet

I should mention, the short original stories i mentioned like rebirth of the broken demoness, these books cannot be read casually, as they will require a bit of thought/an emotional reaction every now and then(by require i dont mean the novel forces it, but rather that you most likely will feel it if you read the novel), read in public at your own discretion.

Indeed WMW is good, but its too damn repetitive. He starts anew 3 or 4 times in his cultivation powers and life cause of diferent magical systems. It is indd very good but its just the same plot over and over only changing the places it happens.... although it all fits together to form a super ultra powerful MC in the end. Even though i'd still recommend ppl reading it, as much as i'd recommend reading Versatille mage, Ive read 2100 chapters of it elsewhere and its really really good.
