    The first book is a spiritual martial arts contract novel. It doesn't start with a school beauty, nor does it feature an F-rank character evolving all the way through, nor an S-rank character's satisfying beginning. Instead, it focuses on achieving S-rank through life-and-death experiences. It includes online romance with sworn siblings, multiple female leads, a post-apocalyptic online game, superpowers, spiritual martial arts, interaction between two worlds, game fusion with reality, and an ensemble cast… The first forty chapters are primarily setup, so you can start reading directly from chapter forty. It's similar to a novel where the protagonist, after achieving great power and superpowers, develops in the later stages. The more you read, the more interesting it becomes. The second book has a golden three-chapter opening: a life simulator, pure love, and mutual redemption. It focuses on romance before cultivation, and is worth a read.
