    The female lead has never appeared throughout the entire story, and given the protagonist's personality, there's a 90% chance she won't be one. The plot is unpredictable; there's no story of a male protagonist who won't kill any pretty woman, no brain-dead protagonist who, after being reborn, doesn't develop but instead immediately provokes others—the kind of idiotic plot where the protagonist loses their mind. Even the cultivators who have lived for hundreds or thousands of years don't seem to lose their minds when they encounter the protagonist. Basically, every character is fleshed out and possesses normal thinking, even surpassing ordinary wisdom, in considering every problem. You won't find the mindless plots of other fantasy cultivation stories here. Furthermore, the plot is unpredictable and doesn't follow a predetermined path. Everything is fluid, so the plot changes due to variables and other factors, avoiding formulaic storylines.
