   Reader note

   No system, a cunning and ruthless protagonist, decisive in killing. This book leans towards a dark fantasy cultivation novel. The protagonist, for survival, will stop at nothing to stay alive. Mountains of corpses and seas of blood are inevitable. The protagonist's character is vividly portrayed, reflecting the treacherous nature of the cultivation world—a world where only fellow cultivators are sacrificed, and where cautious actions are paramount. When faced with a challenge, escape is the best option. The story is unconventional, and the protagonist is intelligent. Although the story has some flaws, they don't detract from its overall quality. While the struggle for the Great Dao is ruthless, a sliver of compassion remains.

    Regardless of gender, the protagonist here prioritizes only self-interest. This is a traditional novel without a systematic plot; even the common clichés and mindless plots found in other books are completely absent. It's a rebirth story with high intelligence, excellent writing, and a plot completely different from those formulaic novels. The protagonist's intelligence is consistently high, his thinking is clear, and his logic is coherent. It's a true male-oriented novel; you have to use your brain to read it. The protagonist is self-serving! He truly utilizes future events to plan from the beginning, unlike other mindless novels where the rebirth leads to various troubles. This book completely avoids such brainless plots. The protagonist's intelligence is also exceptional. Although he plans his future path based on his past life's memories, his actions are skillful and sophisticated, always demonstrating caution and high wisdom. Furthermore, there are no mindless plots; the logic is rigorous. The protagonist is an extremely self-interested person. This is not a mindless novel! Not a mindless novel! Not a mindless novel! I'm saying it three times because it's important. If you're looking for a mindless, feel-good novel, look elsewhere! If you don't read this carefully, you'll miss a lot of foreshadowing. Be mindful while reading and don't skip ahead; every word or sentence might be a key element related to later plot developments. Also, the author's hidden clues will be explained later, perhaps in one, two, or even many chapters. From what I've read so far, there are practically no major problems, so you can read it with confidence. One more thing: don't read this without thinking, because some of the exciting moments are on the surface, while others are not. If you don't understand them, don't waste your time.

    These three books seem pretty good. I've read the first one before and it seems to be related to demonic cultivation, but I've forgotten some of the plot details. The second one is also about demonic cultivation, but people who aren't completely familiar with each other will still help. The third one involves using any means necessary.

    This is not a story of becoming an immortal, but an epic tale of cultivators. When his sword points to the abyss, the shattered void reveals a karmic prison forged by the obsessions of all beings. Those who perished in the ancient times, those who transcended tribulations, were they defying fate, or were they searching for the glimmer of humanity extinguished by immortal arts? This book not only offers a thrilling adventure but also profound reflections on humanity and the meaning of life. Furthermore, it uses a blood-and-fire allegory of enlightenment to unveil the mysteries of humanity behind the cultivation civilization. Immortal arts can move mountains and fill seas, but what is most difficult to subdue is always the undying flame of mortal life within the human heart.
