    My friend Bao Tui, this novel is incredibly detailed and vivid in its descriptions of every detail. It features all sorts of skills you wouldn't expect. The protagonist's power level starts to rise rapidly around chapters 60-70, and his martial arts system is high-level for the first 50 chapters, then becomes completely overpowered later on. You simply can't imagine what outrageous skills the protagonist possesses.

    Most of them are older books, with the most recent being the resurrected troll lord. There don't seem to be many good lord-themed books out there.
