The Abyss Is Invading? As a Demonic Cultivator, I’m Laughing

First, you must be ruthless. Since you've already become a demonic cultivator, stop talking about pitying others. You can't survive without being a demon. Take care of yourself first. Secondly, one must be willing to sacrifice oneself. As the saying goes, "I am the demon, I am the demon, but I must sacrifice myself to become the demon."

It's obvious the author can't distinguish between the terms "demonic path," "evil seed," "egoism," and "villain." These terms overlap, but they are not the same thing. A protagonist can be evil, can be wicked, can cultivate demonic arts, and can even say "I would rather betray the world than let the world betray me," but they must have their own set of principles and behavioral logic, and cannot…

To put it simply, the protagonist is more like a necromancer. His initial skills are all similar to wind blades—what demonic cultivator uses that? Demonic cultivators all use techniques like Blood Burning Escape, Heavenly Demon Disintegration, Life-Saving Techniques, forging the "Umbrella of Ten Thousand People," and devouring and absorbing the essence of flesh and blood.

This book is doomed to be a hit; I've read over ten chapters. The protagonist can level up effortlessly by picking up corpses and mobs, and even craft powerful equipment from those corpses. But the author just won't do that. He insists on fighting monsters beyond the protagonist's capabilities, talking about "playing it safe" while simultaneously engaging in reckless and dangerous actions, and then forcibly suppressing the protagonist's combat power. And this is only a dozen chapters in!

Low IQ but insists on showing off, and when he does, it's all hindsight. He received a legacy that made him a demonic cultivator, and once he started cultivating, he became a true villain. The settings are full of surprises, he's happy to suppress his strength, but he doesn't upgrade his equipment instead of his cultivation level, making him a pathetic sight in fights.

The subject matter is fine, but the writing is truly indescribable. Furthermore, the protagonist's personality should either be completely evil—killing everyone, including parents and friends—that would at least filter the readers; you can choose what you like. Instead, it's neither human nor demon. In short, it's about being blinded by petty gains and hesitant to act for the greater good. Incredibly stupid.

It's extremely toxic, with a severely warped worldview. It labels anyone with ideals and a desire to fight for humanity as a saint, then predicts they'll all die in the abyss. Any character showing kindness is met with malice, as if everyone deserves to die, and the protagonist even pretends to be the embodiment of truth. The supporting characters are also somewhat brainless.

Is this enough to be considered a featured post?

Why is there such a contradiction in this book review section? Can any fellow readers explain this? I saw in the book review section that some people said the protagonist was selfish and others said he didn't seem like a demonic cultivator. Which one is right? What is the main character like?

A demonic weapon never before forged, a supernatural power never before mastered… So the question arises: since no one has ever successfully forged one, where did the methods for forging demonic weapons and supernatural powers come from? 🤔
