This Patriarch honestly cant believe it.. Some people: a wuxia? no op cultivation? no system? Its boring!! And then some others would say: I expected necromancy and some powerful evil cultivation method from the title! 1 star then!! Yes.. they all rated it 1 star because this novel is not what they expected without even reading it. This novel is honestly really good.I wont spoil anything. You can search Death Sutra on NU to start reading it if you want. This book doesnt shy away from all the brutal realities of the world. This isnt the type of world wherin you overpower your opponent with your cultivation, instead you outsmart them poison them, attack when theyre sleeping, anything works. Like all martial arts novel only the strong are respected. Our mc came from a strong martial arts clan.But he doesnt train, hes just spoiled and pampered. His family got assasinated but he escaped only to be caught and sold as a slave to the very clan that assasinated his family. He hid his identity of course and is plotting for revenge. Hes training martial arts now while being a servant. Hes not used to being a servant btw. You think its cliche? Well it doesnt matter. What makes this amazing is its execution. The author mastered the dao of cliffhangers and keeps you at the edge of your seat for most chapters! I definitely recommend this. The world building and character development of this novel is excellent.

NU veterans say this novel is among their favourite CN novels, and they said the novel is really BRUTAL!!! Apart from that I heard that it's a Wuxia not a Xianxia meaning no immortals n only martial arts fighting! Waitin for this one!!!!

I expect a good story out of this one. At the very least, the characters must not be ****** idiots who do nothing but spout out arrogant words, while looking down on the MC only to get face-slapped or killed by MC later on. Frankly speaking, I am fed up with all those repetitions. I don't know why there are so many fans for these kind of 'idiotic' cultivations novels. Perhaps most of their readers are just underaged kids or adults with childish minds? All they expect from the story is how the op MC will cultivate, kill, face-slap, cultivate more, kill more, face-slap more... In other words, Zero character development, Bird-brained side characters, and Enemies with mental defects.

Followed the story when it was being translated on a different site. Well executed story with an interesting twist. As far as I read, the character doesn’t get too powerful relative to the world around him. This makes the story interesting because rather than your typical power fantasy he is usually still in a weaker position than whoever he fights against. This leads to the main character making clever decisions and taking interesting risks. Overall, the story is worthwhile to those tired of power fantasy and who want to read a low power wuxia story.

It's funny how he made a world for himself, "in which he was alone", and yet one of the tags is 'Brotherhood'. Not that I'm complaining, since that was a key factor for my interest. This looks pretty good. Hope it holds up to my expectations

I've read the raws via MTL and I can tell you, this is one of the best novels in Qidian. Very brutal, very dark, realistic in the sense that any fight can and will result in deaths without being curbstomps... it's a gem that needs more love. Also, a wuxia not a xianxia/xuanhuan, so be prepared for that... no eat-an-immortal-pill/cultivation-breakthrough/beat-up-enemy-sect infinite loop like you see in so many WNs.

This is the most captivating webnovel I have ever read (although I have only read volume 1 so far). This is an assassination and revenge novel takes place at the intersection of jianghu, the world of killers, and the world of thieves, and everyone in these worlds moves between them from one desperate situation to the next. Sometimes vengeance is found in open killing and duels, sometimes in connections and silver, and sometimes in the last words the target ever hears. The author does an amazing job of bringing this desperate and contradictory world to life. Everyone is dirty, no one is clean, no one can be trusted, many people trust you, you'll still kill them no matter how much guilt and hatred weighs down your heart.
