Legends say this world has immortals!
Chen Li: There might be, but there are more demons and ghosts and monsters!
Once traversing into the vast unknown, hastily scurrying for meals amidst the busy throng, everyone says how great it is to cultivate immortality, yet who has seen skeletons exposed beside the road...?

Review for 115 chapters: MC is now a proper late stage cultivator(Qi 7). He has also killed a grade 2 snake demon (roughly equal to Foundation Establishment lvl) back when he was at Qi 6. Although his grade 2 sword helped, and the terrain restricted the demon, it’s still quite the accomplishment. At least now he is more or less unbeatable within the Qi Cultivation stage. Also, he has moved to the main cultivation city under the sect (quite literally under it, it is at the foot of the mountain where the sect is at the peak, hidden in the clouds). He has settled down with his friends and subordinates. Costs are higher and the selling price of talismans is much lower. However, has acquired the skill for making the Amulet Talisman (Qi 7, basic talismans book). That has a better sale price, although still not quite as ridiculous as back in the village. Positives : The city is a Grade 1 cultivation land, perfect for Qi Cultivation. Also the large population means that there’s no beasts around. Also, he can fly under the radar even more since there’s like over 100,000 people there. Also there’s a bunch of books/techniques regarding the cultivation world that can be bought easily.
A 2021 story but it was dropped now it has been picked up but updates are inconsistent and only 225 chapters
This is a nice steady story, with good character development. There is a system, but there isn’t a lot of deus ex machina, so his increases in strength and abilities seems very organic and logical! Not boring!
very different from your usual cultivation study. The mc has a system that doesn't make him completely broken. Truly it's a dream come true. Great mc with okay world development and good plot, though I particularly enjoy the steady pacing which is uncharismatic of other novels which often have an exiting arc followed by a slump and vice-versa. This novel hasn't bored me 130 chapters in once. Maybe it's cause of that tension created by the fact his system isn't an answer to everything all it does it help him learn a spell faster.
Good build up. Consistent and logical world.
