Cultivation, but I Eat Spirit Roots

Li Wujiu's childhood can be described as that of a little ghost, his diligence and principles as those of a little Liantian, his luck as that of a little Juyang, and his talent as that of a little Hongting. In short—this book is an excellent work of dark fiction. Giving it four stars is a form of protection; after all, dark fiction is not favored by the Heavenly Surveillance Tower, and being punished would be undesirable.

I love watching this! The protagonist is decisive and ruthless, there's no female lead yet, it's not frustrating, he's vengeful, and a bit petty—I love vengeful protagonists! He prioritizes self-interest, and most importantly, he's sparing with words and ruthless. The beginning really satisfied me.

It's quite dark, and the protagonist is fairly intelligent! Some supporting characters are a bit brainless, and there are some scenes of characters showing off and getting slapped in the face, but these are few and far between, so it's acceptable. Also, it's quite angsty for the protagonist (though not as unemotional as truly angsty stories).

Do you know how hard it is to find a demonic cultivation novel that isn't just a copycat? 🤦 Finally, the protagonist isn't someone who retains all his moral compass after experiencing everything. It's an environment where everyone is competing and fighting for power. Whether someone is useful or not doesn't matter, and if they're useless, they're insignificant.

It's exceptionally good. The protagonist isn't brainless; every step he takes is well-planned and stable. While his survival is largely due to his special abilities, it's also inseparable from his unwavering will and intelligence, his skill in showcasing his value, and his ability to gain more resources and status. There's no excessive romance, it's not mindless and entertaining; every action he takes has a valid reason.

It's shady, but is it serious that they're keeping all their trump cards hidden from the Demonic Sect? They just acquired a trump card-level magic treasure and immediately used it in a harmless, ordinary battle, aren't they afraid the Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Demonic Sect will steal it?

Having read the latest chapter, 98, it's quite good so far, and the protagonist is almost at the Foundation Establishment stage. It's much better than some stories where the protagonist claims to be a demonic cultivator but is actually a savior. This protagonist doesn't use the term "demonic cultivator," is quite decisive in killing, and consumes spiritual roots. Although this book isn't perfect, it deserves five stars. The only downside is that there are 13 levels of Qi Refining.

Even setting aside the fact that the plot and writing are truly excellent, comparable to AI, the setting is quite novel compared to other fantasy novels. There's no concept of crossing realms in the early stages, and even the differences between minor cultivation levels are significant. The author is truly amazing!

Great! Hope the story doesn't stop updating. Keep it up, author! Finally, no more dragging plot points!! Finally, no more scenes of men killing women and women releasing them!!! Everything is for getting stronger!! [KISS]

I just finished reading the first four chapters and gave it a perfect score. I don't care about the writing style or the plot, I only care about its theme. When a dog goes through life and death and breaks its leash, tearing apart a hypocritical moral relationship, it transforms from a dog into a human. The cycle of life and death opens, and the calamity begins again to wash away the impurities!
