I Lay Low at the Celestial Masters’ Mansion Until I Become Invincible

After reading over 60 chapters, the first 20 or so chapters, when the protagonist reached the Nine-Turn Golden Core stage and began to nurture his Nascent Soul, were the most exciting parts. This was because you could see the protagonist obtain various items and cultivation levels through his cheat ability, and you could clearly feel the protagonist's improvement.

It's a pretty realistic depiction of an ancient society filled with demons, monsters, and gods. If it were truly from that era, such a protagonist would certainly be very realistic. Many people talk about "surviving by staying put," but I think it's alright. If it were me, I would react the same way. No matter how big the matter, if helping might cost me my life, and not helping would allow me to survive, I would most likely choose to survive.

I haven't even started watching yet, let's guess the plot... Will the invincible character start working behind the scenes, pretending to be a novice?... Even if they find out, they'll just imagine all sorts of scenarios.

I'll say a few words; I've read over thirty chapters. I can't stand it anymore. Hiding is fine, being cautious and hiding is the best way. However, the protagonist went too far in his cunning, giving the impression that he was pretending to be weak while actually being strong, but then forgot he was the tiger and thought he was a pig. What is true survival (or surviving)?

Let me say something. The book is alright, but the cultivation levels feel really strange. The characters seem to cultivate so fast, reaching the Golden Core stage in their early twenties! It's so jarring and so different from traditional Xianxia novels 😭. Take the Celestial Master Ling, for example; her talismans can even withstand Nascent Soul attacks.

It's terrible and chaotic, with extremely poor writing. It doesn't inspire any desire to savor or appreciate its nuances, word by word. The main plot is unclear; the protagonist doesn't know what he's doing, passively leveling up with forced coincidences. The supporting characters are brainless; all I saw was padding, and I remember nothing after finishing it.

Doesn't the protagonist know any common sense or need to learn some knowledge? A common problem with these kinds of "couch potato" stories is that the protagonist clearly has immense power but lacks common sense, and they just don't change that. Then at the end, they say, "Ah, so I'm this strong?" And they're a transmigrator!

It's so weird. I thought this book was alright, but as I was reading it, I suddenly didn't want to read it anymore. It's strange, just that kind of weird feeling, that sudden feeling of boredom.

Did you know that if you always pretend to be a pig, you'll turn into a pig?

The author failed to grasp the core appeal and essence of the "invincible, cunning" genre. While the protagonist can be cunning in thought, their actions shouldn't be. Necessary displays of power and sophisticated bravado are essential. However, in this book, even after 50+ chapters, the protagonist, with 9000 years of cultivation, is portrayed as a mere background character.
