    Hi, shameless author here, honoring the tradition. Here is some more info about the novel, also please use this review as a Q/A section where I will answer all your questions. Updated: 12/25/2021 ################ This novel is written by someone who loves to write as much as he loves to read! Out of slight frustration of repeating tropes in all the novels I read, I decided to try and create my own with one particular goal in mind and that is to use as few tropes as I possibly can, to create something new, something refreshing. If I do happen to use a trope then that's a pure coincidence as I wasn't aiming to write one, but in that case, apparently did. What is going to make this novel different from all the others? Well among the lack of tropes, these are the next key points which I hope will bring enough refreshment to the genre: - The cultivation world is not eastern but just like earth, multi-cultural. The story begins in a western environment but will eventually take place in other cultural environments as well, as the eastern one among others. - The MC has no cheating device, not that he needs one though, he's a prodigy and a living miracle after all. - The cultivation world isn't as brutal and filled with psychopaths as in most other novels. The majority of people have good values but of course, evil-minded people do occur, just far, far less frequent than you might be used to. - The MC is an artist, he loves art. I was inspired by the stone sculpting from reading Coiling Dragon and plan to incorporate similar ideas in this novel, but the MC won't be focussing solely on stone sculpting but also on painting. - No lame luck obvious plot armors. - No 2d side characters. - No techniques he practices that will be forgotten later on. - There will be romance but not like most novels where they are forced to separate for the majority of the novel. - There will not be a single romance but a small harem, and his women won't be numbers either but will all have their own stories and personalities. They will band together and become close, a team that respects, protects, and loves each other! - The MC is extremely handsome, sorry I couldn't help myself :) Everything is better than an average John in my opinion and making him ugly was out of the question, we all like to dream after all ;) - The MC creates all techniques on his own, it's his thing. And it won't be like he goes to the mountain training for ten weeks and then comes back with new techniques. No, he will step for step take us with him when he is creating those techniques, describing it in detail and explaining why it works like it does, etc. ################### Thanks to all of your support, my hard work has been rewarded with a contract and has gained the privilege to become premium!! This means I will now be fully dedicated to writing this novel and will be offering you a stable and daily release of chapters containing the most awesome, epic, and entertaining content I can possibly create! I ask you all to please support and motivate me in this endeavor, I can guarantee you that it will be worth every penny! Thank you!

    Despite only seven chapters being out so far I still wanted to support the author by giving reviewing it since I have high hopes for this novel and really hope he will continue writing it. Love the ideas you have for this novel and respect that you dare to try and create something new. Especially since I get how you feel with all the copy paste cliches in other novels, it irritates me a lot as well and it is getting way out of hand on this side. So I really hope you can make this work and continue to write your novel, thank you for the effort! I will keep a close tab on this and support you when I can!

    This novel is really well written and has a lot of potential, this novel really deserves more recognition and the author is a brilliant one. I’m proud of myself for just finding this hidden gem. I’m enjoying this a lot and hope to be able to read a lot more of this. The mc’s realtionship with Sarah is also pretty good, honestly enjoying the romance. I look forward to seeing what this novel becomes in the future. Can’t wait for more. Thank you, author for your hard work and for this novel. 😁

    Your story is really good and has a lot of potential and is really good but I wish you had a better update schedule. The best update schedules in my opinion is something either from one chapter a week to one chapter a day. After saying that, all I can really say is I hope you keep writing this wonderful story!

    A good read. The story itself has potential to be something trully amazing, the plot seems promising through out the chapters and the character's are life like which is good at the reader's interpretation. Overall i liked the story.

    Writing Quality:Almost no grammatical errors Story Development In Progress but great so far(Some adult stuff and the rest is great) Character Design So far so Good. Updating Stability :1 Chapter per day World Background:Great The author adds a random fact after each chapter. This one does not follow the usual trend of almost all cultivation novels. There are some similarities. The Author has made the mc somewhat distinctly different from other cultivation novels simply based on the fact that he does not eat animal (beast)flesh and even the more powerful beasts do not harm him. I hope to be with you till the completion of this novel.

    Read a few chapters and honestly, I got annoyed quick. Everything was fine until the three women came to the village, I just find it unrealistic for 3 golden core plus cultivators not to notice a mortal. Also, the master of the other two girls saying those things was an instant turn off, cuz mc is 14 and she's 40+, that's just wrong. Everything else was alright tho
