   First book: Absolutely fantastic! It gets even better as it goes on! The author's writing is excellent and shows significant improvement; the characters are well-developed and have their own distinct personalities. It features a ranking system, and the geniuses depicted are genuine, not like those in some other novels. Second book: Not many people are reading it, but I personally think it's quite good. It has many foreshadowing elements. The protagonist is a sarcastic character but outwardly composed. The world-building is vast and novel, and the setting is very interesting.

    [Cultivation + No Romance + Ensemble Cast + Strong Female Lead + Minimal Development + Genius] Everyone says that Di Qing of the Lingji Sect is a complete madman. At the tender age of seven, with a mortal body covered in blood, he shattered a millennium-old seal and ascended to the first level of the Lingji Sect's ten-thousandth Heavenly Rank—a feat never before achieved by anyone in the sect. His innate ice-attribute ethereal root and unparalleled talent in the three realms, his spirit-measuring pillar shattering at the slightest touch, made him a prodigy. He became the sole disciple of the reclusive Venerable Chen Xi, who had been in seclusion for a thousand years. A peerless genius, he ascended the Bright Moon Ranking at a young age, his brilliance unmatched. Later, the entire sect knew that the Lingji Sect had a group of chief disciples; when these nine gathered, their brilliance shone throughout the six realms. Di Qing, the first disciple of Chen Xi, possessed extraordinary talent and an icy heart, wielding power over the universe. Fu Feng Jiang Jiuyin was gentle as the moon, a single talisman determining life and death. Dan Feng Fu Du, aloof and detached, his alchemical fire burning away the dust of the world; Zhenfeng Wenye, elegant and serene, his array formation covering mountains and rivers; Jianfeng Mo Nifeng, unrestrained and free; Mo Niyao, arrogant and unruly, his sword chilling fourteen provinces; thunder splitting the sky and awe-inspiring the nine heavens; Yinfeng Huayuan, lively and charming, her celestial melody calming the soul; Mai Sect Master's personal disciple Yuan Yue, shy and serene, her arrow piercing the sky; Mai Sect Master's personal disciple Lu Fanxiao, adorable and talented, her youthful appearance glimpsing the heavens and predicting the rise and fall of dynasties. That generation of immortal sect geniuses emerged in great numbers, but only these nine, possessing all the splendor and outshining all others, were free from the entanglements of marriage and the affections of children, only bound by swords and bound by hearts. Their youthful spirit was stained with frost and snow, their first glimpse into the Dao was already unrestrained. They did not worship immortals or burn incense, but only made an appointment with their peers to stand on the cloud peaks, wielding their sharpness to break through all realms, laughing at the mortal world and the heavens!

"After all, before my ascension, you—" "will forever look up to me." This is a highly recommended cultivation novel. It's a strong female lead story with a god-level spiritual root, the strongest talent, and the highest status from the start. It features a large ensemble cast, the author's writing is delicate, the characters are well-developed, and there are many foreshadowing elements. It's definitely worth a second reading. It's not a traditional transmigration novel and has no clichéd plots. (Note that this book has a romantic pairing, but it's one-sided; there's no official relationship or romantic subplot in the main story.)
