Synopsis

MOUNTAIN SITTING IMMORTAL (MSI)

A conduit of the great Dao happened to enter the grotto heaven called Earth. No one had been able to take ownership of this conduit for many years until Marvin came into contact with it. 

Marvin met the requirement to use the conduit. This allowed him to begin his journey towards immortality. 

The journey begins from transcending the first mortal coil at Body Forging to transcending the second at Energy Gathering, passing through the subsequent mortal coils, and hopefully to becoming a true immortal with eternal life.

But the conduit is far more useful than helping a dying business tycoon gain another lease at life. It is also a conduit of great power. 

This power and many more will be his as long as he continues to sit on his mountain and grows the mountain into a colossus. The mountain will bring him to greater heights and greater power. 

This is the story of the Mountain Sitting Immortal.

✨Review after 90 chapters✨ Personally, I’d recommend reading all the free chapters first before judging the story. This review was written after I read all 90 currently available chapters. (⚠️ BE WARNED: this review may contain minor spoilers ⚠️) Here is my review: ‑Writing Quality (⭐️ 4/5 Stars ⭐️)‑ The writing quality is quite good. It isn’t the best I have seen, but it’s certainly good enough to be enjoyable. I rarely give 5 stars; out of thousands of books I have read, only 6 qualify as 5 stars, so the passing rate is below 1 percent. Anyway, I have nothing more to say—I just hope that you don’t mix up Kelvin and Arthur in the future because of your other book (you know what I mean). ‑Updating Stability (⭐️ 5/5 Stars ⭐️)‑ The updating stability has been reliable so far, with 2 chapters a day (though I sometimes wish the chapters were longer; that’s just my personal preference, as the chapters aren’t exactly short but are long enough). ‑Story Development (⭐️ 5/5 Stars ⭐️)‑ I liked the story development so far; it is neither too slow nor too fast, with reasonable time skips and a story direction that makes sense according to what you set up. So far, there is no cliché per se (depending on how you see it). It kind of reminds me of the Birth Of The Demonic Sword story—except that the main character’s mother is a bit crazy. Yes, he is not an orphan. ‑Character Design (⭐️ 5/5 ⭐️)‑ Regarding character design, the main character isn’t exactly admirable. If I had to assign him an alignment, it would be (initially) Chaotic Good (like, Deadpool-good). That “good” isn’t substantial; he was a profit-driven individual before his reincarnation (I say this as he has killed people indirectly through others to "keep his hands clean" which fits a rich modern persons behavior, that’s why I’m saying that he isn’t exactly good, while he has "morals" or rather had, once it was about profit and business, his "ugly side" comes forth), after reincarnation his alignment shifted more toward evil because he killed people. Later, after some character development, he becomes either Chaotic Neutral or Neutral Evil. Either way, most characters actually think, so none of them are mere empty husks. Sure, not everyone is the brightest, but they are reasonably portrayed; some are smarter and some more average, and each has its own distinct personality, even among the extras. ‑World Background (⭐️ 4/5 ⭐️)‑ So, coming to the world background, the “System” he has is a passive “cheat” (at least so far). To be honest, it’s kind of convenient for both the reader and the main character to track progress that way. I wish it would show not only his lifespan but also his age, as his lifespan will continue to increase—making the passage of time, so to speak, and thus his age, more important. Sure, I can easily remember his age, but I doubt others will unless it is mentioned. Anyway, the main character is not talentless, which is good. In fact, he has his advantages because the 2× multiplier (or more in the future) applies to EVERYTHING—comprehension, energy, soul, mind, physical body, etc. Consequently, he is talented and becomes even more so as time goes on, giving him quite an edge over others, although it becomes increasingly hard to upgrade as the requirements grow steeper. Well, why isn’t it a 5/5 but only a 4/5? It’s because, while everything is detailed and well thought out—mixing Eastern and Western styles like dojos (smaller versions of sects and major families, which I like; I hope this applies to animals and beasts as well, such as Western dragons [four legs, 2 wings, 1 tail] and Eastern dragons [a serpentine body, four claw-like legs, and an overall long shape] as examples)—this is a “cultivation type” story. Thank God no Chinese words or names are used, which I also appreciate, because things like Wan Dao Pavilion often translate as Myriad Dao Pavilion or, depending on context, Ten Thousand Dao Pavilion (usually Myriad, so you know for other stories), or how I hate Huaxia (which means Flame) representing China (Yuan = Origin, Taiji = Unity, Yang = Solar, Yin = Lunar—or Sun and Moon, for example) in those xianxia stories. I’m quite happy that this isn’t the case here. Now, after I have been sidetracked—despite these good points, I wish the fight scenes were more detailed. I do know that the author is capable of this, so I hope he applies it in the future. ‑Summary (✨ 4.6/5 Stars ✨)‑ I like the story so far. Some people complain about his pet or the “romance” (regarding romance, I think it’s quite far away; I don’t know for sure, though, as 90 chapters in there has been no sign so far—and I’m actually glad that there is NO harem, to be honest). However, I don’t think either issue is significant. As for the pet, if it lives that long, it won’t be too strong and will eventually become irrelevant unless something happens. Otherwise, I like the main character; he fits someone who comes from a modern world perfectly—especially considering his past position and his profit-driven personality—before he undergoes character development that suits the world he lives in. I hope my review helps you decide whether this story is worth reading. I’d say give it a shot if you liked the beginning of The Birth Of The Demonic Sword, and I also hope this helps the author in some way. (Anyway, this is my review. You better pin it. According to the word count, this is around 800-1000 words, half a chapter.)

Sigh, never mind, it's romance! 😞 But I understand it’s for the bag 💰, so do what you need to do. Though I’m looking at you differently now, I can't lie.

Romance + Pet + Friendship, comparred to greed and destiny games the protagonist is too much diferent, more like Soverick or Fang Yuan brother. If you are here for a protagonist like Legion, Fang Yuan, Gu nan, etc then you should read something else.

This novel has great potential. Reaching thousands of chapters shouldn't be just a dream if it maintains its momentum.

It sounds unique which I'm excited for, Quality is pretty much assured by your previous work so thats a plus. Romance huh. Well it's not like other things that I read don't also have romance. Let's see if you are able to make me enjoy it or if I just have to tolerate it. As long as there is no Harem, then that's fine.

Review after 165 chapters: this was very entertaining, funny and even the power system is unique and the biggest improvement is the fleshed out side characters like his mother and especially that unapologetic deer hahaha and i hope the mc gets a family and kids one day (Ones that he doesn’t have to sacrifice his life for) and i hope he thanks his mother for the help that he condemned her for in the past

i have just 3 requirements out of my novels 1. the mc must not be a fool. it doesn't matter what resolutions and principles he has as long as he sticks to them. that is harder to see here than you would think 2. the writer has the common decency of not .making every side character and enemy stupid. if someone is of a higher rank than you than chances are that he is better than you in most soft aspects like composure, etc. so i do not appreciate everybody turning into an idiot to progress the plot. 3. the mc must have a tinge of unpredictability, he should not always be lead by the story and should be able to 'come out of the plot' for the lack of a better description. So concerning these criteria, everything DMadLord has written is a masterpiece to me. the story is unique even in the extremely played out domain of cultivation
