An eternal prison, a soulless body, a sealed spirit, everything lost. To resign before merciless fate, or to become destiny! I lived in an illusion, I was lost, I could not find my home, I did not have a home… but why does it matter?! Between bowing to the threat of death and a spine that would never bend, I will choose the latter! Collapse

    Absolute must-read!
    I almost made the mistake of skipping this masterpiece because it takes over 100 chapters until the predominant tone of the story is set. Yes, a 110 chapters long chapter zero. And then everything changes.
    There's certain philosophical depth, but more so, it's heavy emotionally. MC's suffering and loneliness is described in great detail and compared to almost every other title here, he admits to his mistakes and weaknesses and experiences real personal growth, which basically adds a new dimension.
    It's a complete ErGen universe, with all of his cultivation systems included. The world building is amazing, but it took another 300 chapters until I realized how grand a stage is being prepared and how much backstory there is to it. It blew my mind and I had to write this, because it's only after the first 400 chapters that I had a proper feeling for this work.
    P.S. It's repulsive how the current translator overuses either unnecessarily sophisticated or archaic words, ESPECIALLY the word "serendipity" which means "unexpected discovery", in places where it doesn't fit. This one single word appears several times in almost every chapter since the current translator took over and replaces "chance", "fortune", "luck", "opportunity" with an ancient word nobody uses or understands. It would be a weird linguistic fetish if there were no clumsy mistakes in their translation, but there are, so it seems like an expression of an inferiority complex. <<less

    Hah really I scoff at this novel come on you are forcing yourself to seem mysterious in your writings
    Mysteries should not be forced from chapter 100 I was able to predict your so called mysteriousness the ideas were good really good for that I applaud you but you were forcing the spirit of the story its was a bit boring
    The fire was not that hot
    Anyways you did great its a good piece you've done there keep it up

      One of the best in the cultivation genre and from my point of view a true masterpiece. If you're searching for a truly good read that you'll always remember then this novel is for you my friend. The MC character is very likeable and the choices he made in his entire cultivation journey are something to be proud of. MC at times is a hero, a tragic one but still a hero, sometimes anti-villain and sometimes straight out the Devil, though because of circumstances.

      Это гарем? (просто на вики мельком глянул - вроде только одна девушка и еще две "оставившие глубокое впечатление о себе")

        Это точно не гарем. С любовной линией довольно сложная ситуация, из-за того как обставлены события.
