Synopsis
Demons, devils, ghosts and monsters
Plunge the mortals weak in horrors;
Arms of gods and blades of devils,
Shroud the world in untold evils.
Lu Sheng was an ordinary civil servant in the modern world. After waking from a drunken stupor one day, he found himself trapped in a dangerous world where demons, ghosts and supernatural monsters terrorize the land.
In this world, ordinary mortals live in dark fear and helplessness, without any means to fight against the supernatural.
As Lu Sheng struggles desperately for survival, he stumbles upon a game mod he had designed for a mobile phone app in his previous life. It unexpectedly becomes his special ability, which enables him to instantly level up any skill he learns, albeit at a cost.
Thus, Lu Sheng begins his journey, striving for power beyond the reach of a mortal as he treads the way of the Devilโฆ

Get Lost Author
Iโm very glad to share the story I write with foreign readers. Iโm the authorโGet Lost. Having my novel chosen as one of the translated novels came as a great surprise even to me as the author. After all, the existing word count for this novel is still very low and it has been released for no more than a month when Iโm writing this.
I must thank China Reading for their active promotion of me as well. My thanks also go to my editor, Wandering Dragon, and chief editor, Comfort, for their enduring support for this novel.
Way of the Devil tells the story of an ordinary mortal fighting against the entire world. Only a path of extremes can lead him to defeat the malice and darkness of this whole world. To pursue a world that he believes in and to transform all that he wants to changeโhe will tread on the way which crushes all other ways!
I hope you will enjoy it!

Deep Blue Translator
Hey, Deep Blue here!
Iโm really excited to work with Qidian International to bring you this translated novelโWay of the Devil! Itโs wonderful that theyโve made this possible & Iโm very honored to be a part of it!
Way of the Devil is definitely not your run-of-the-mill Xianxia novel, although itโs classified as one. Are you tired of the typical Xianxia tropes (read: melodrama; overpowered MCs; tedious levelling-up; fighting for treasures; outbidding others in auctionsโฆ and so on, and so on)? THEN READ Way of the Devil! Youโll definitely find it refreshing!
What makes this novel truly unique is its sheer horror. This is a novel about the supernatural. Itโs a world where demons, devils, ghosts and monsters roam the earth and terrorize ordinary mortals. It will give you the creeps & serve up delicious chills down your spine (caution: you may not want to read this novel too late at night).
Apart from that, what I really like about Way of the Devil is the main characterโLu Sheng. Here is one guy who will go to the extremes to get stronger, treading the way of the devil just so that he can survive in this terrifying world. However, at the same time, heโs extremely low-profile and behaving in an understated manner. Nobody knows the extent of his true powerโthose who do are dead.
Not only that, Way of the Devil has been consistently ranked among the Top Ten novels in its category on the Qidian main site since its release! As Iโm writing, Way of the Devil ranks No. 6 on the Original Creations Ranking, No. 4 on the Bestselling Ranking and No. 6 on the Overall Recommendation Votes Ranking! Moreover, its author, Get Lost, is a highly respected and popular writer known for his rich imagination, originality and unique writing style. The quality of this novel is guaranteed.
Trust me. If youโre not reading Way of the Devil, youโre missing out!
P.S. You'll find the name "Deep Blue" in the novel as well, but this is really just a coincidence. "Deep Blue" was already my web name from an earlier translation project!

I enjoy it as much as A Will Eternal, it's uniquely different from everything else I've read and it will leave you wishing that you has a backlog of 1000s of chapters so you can stay and explore the mysteries of this world. Well worth a read
now this book is in my top 3.. very very good and u wont find any other books that the MC cheat need him snorting white powder, hes an addict.. oh btw.. if possible read this at night it will make you sleep easier because its a very warming story
Translator stopped translating which is all well and good, but decided togo premium after changing translator? this novel gets updated maybe once a month and does not deserve premium, i know qidian just want money but this is getting out of hand, gonna go read this on a free site regardless of whether its straight copy paste from here, im not wasting money on this stupid site anymore.
Well... Punishment review too. I loved this novel. The initial promise was 5chapters/week and maybe more. It went the other way around. Slower and slower. We're not even at 1/week now. And it goes premium on top of that.

Please more updates. Too slow. Please more updates. Too slow. Please more updates. Too slow. Please more updates. Too slow. Please more updates. Too slow. Please more updates. Too slow. Please more updates. Too slow.
More support for the translator ..its soooo great novel ..properly balanced and not just everyday cultivation where everyone is fighter and same kill kill kill..it has more sotry into it and balanced/ little powerfull which is understandable since he is MC but u wont get fed up but its just theres not love for tranaslator and supporter otherwise great and just low chapter week but i...i can endure this hardship
This is the novel I need in my life. The story is good not to basic (clichรฉ) and the translator is amazing. It has a little of a slow start but as you go around chapter 40 it gets better and better by the chapter. So I beg you guys to read and support this novel (cough cough because I need a mass release from my favourite translator).
This is literally the most unresponsive translator. Goes weeks without updates or translations after promising new chapters... even lied that another translator was brought on board, but yet no chapters for a week. The story is legit good, that's why I'm even writing a review.
Deep blue the only thing limiting this novel from topping the charts is the update speed, almost every other novel up there release from10-14 chapters a week, this would also bring benefit in increasing your fan base, please do consider. Itโs honestly s hassle to wait for such a great novel with such slow speed, I sometimes even think of ignoring it for a few months, yet I still give any stones to this novel whenever they are refreshed.
I really like this story, but honestly you guys should go and **** yourselves, there's no way I'm going to try and continue to read through this ridiculous paywall. Especially considering how poor the update stability has been. Have fun losing half or more of the dedicated readership you guys had before you all became a bunch of money hungry cunts. The only way I'll continue to read this is if I can find the chapters somewhere else for free. Fuck off
dropped . calculating raw chapter and stability of updates. raw chapters 900+ translated 283 stability of updates 1 chapter every 1-2 weeks . ,, when i first read this novel the raw had over 400 chapters and the translated is 180+ now after 6 months . calculating.... lets say 1 week has 1 chapter , 1 week has 7 days , calculating .... 4 chapters per month , there are 12 months in 1 year you can get 48 chapters per year . calculating ..................... it will take 20 years before the novel get to 900 chapters . can you wait for that?

This is my first horror novel ever since I have started reading since 2 years ago and it's the best novel thus so far.... Plot development is nice and steady there are only 2-3 boring chapter so far but so far it's like sitting in the edge of the chair.... And it is highly recommend to those who wanted to enjoy this feeling read this cnovel at night time ๐๐ you will surely love this feeling.....๐ป๐ป๐ป
2 chapters for week? God. Come on qidian. Please get someone to help the translator. Help him out help him out help him out Help him out help him out help him out Help him out help him out help him out
Good buildup so far - as they've only released 17 chapters so far, I am optimistic that the way it's going the MC doesn't seem to be too OP. And no overbearing 2D romance leads yet, which I will count as a win. The author is doing a good job at building the sense of mystery and the supernatural in the world. Will update this as I read further / more releases come out.
Good start. Hope the novel gets even better later and the MC actually cares about others, of course not too much ๐. Waiting for him to learn more awesome inner force skills and also upgrade his black fury skill to a decent level. What is the cause of all the supernatural/paranormal incidents?
Unresponsible translators, many empty promises made, but ends up delivering only 1 chapter a month! Several times this project has changed hands and recruited new translators, but every time nothing changes. The release pace is non-existant!
Certainly, hope this novel isn't destroyed by Harem and a vicious MC who slaughters innocent people for a petty reason Most Xianxia novels with potential end up dying that way
