I really enjoyed this book. It's not just a typical power-up story. It's a comfortable read, not too tiring. I also like the protagonist's personality; he might be a bit wicked. Those who don't like this kind of behavior might want to check it out. It's a pretty good book.
You're incredibly clever; I can see right through your values. You're a genius, so damn good-looking!
This book made me understand what the supremacy of imperial power means.
This is the work of a true emperor, bloody and brutal; a dynasty that only serves me is a good dynasty.
While writing, I accidentally destroyed the system.
The writing is okay, but the system seems pretty useless. And after consuming so many pills, my cultivation is still recovering so slowly. All those pills would make the pig practically a spirit!
Without specifying how much lifespan is increased by cultivation level, how can one determine this? Spitting out so much blood, what cultivation level are you at? 😅
It's alright, but this emperor is nothing but coughing up blood and being obese! When will he ever conquer the world?
The protagonist is very good at hiding his true abilities in the early stages, but then he takes off like a rocket later on.
It's really good, the rating is too low. The protagonist is decisive in fighting enemies but gentle with his own people. It's an interesting book that balances rationality and emotion.
