Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.The formless ancient world was infested with despicable demons. They hunted and feasted on mankind, keeping the human civilization constantly in a weak and suppressed state.
During the first known year, a magical mountain descended into the world from the realm of the Gods. Carved on this enormous mountain was a message: ‘Heaven Prevails’…
After the Grand Descent, a name that was given to the descending of the mountain, the Three Great Sages made their ways to Mystic Mountain where they learned to harvest what we now call magic, establishing the Mystic Cults and eighty-one sacred shrines to help aid mankind with the cult’s mystic powers against the eternal fight to the death with demons.

I read raw, to the final chapter.
[I want to redeem my lost time!!]
However - my heart bleed!!. The plot turns confuse. The illogic arises. Important characters are thrown away, despite being praised highly in the first 100.
His world-shaking master, his overlord-benefactors, his family, his friends, his developing army, his world-chattering rune making ability, etc, etc - all become garbage, not being mentioned again.
Totally disappear, completelr discarded, never be seen again.
Even his r*ped woman simply disappears !!
If that's not disappointed enough, the final act.. all world buildings and other characters just simply - disappears.
Author ended his novel. No reason.
Just end. That's all.
So, for you who read TL version, better prepare your mind. Read each chapter/act as it is. Do not expect development. Discard any characters you like. Just focus on what MC *currently* does, then you'll be happy.

Novel title : Cult of the sacred Runes?
Author DROPPED the development of the runes around ch.300.. so, what's next ???
Worst novel ever read.
and here I thought it was an actual prequel to TDG with the same quality of writing. what a disappointment
he gets tons of knowledge without deserving it.
everyone else except one person is a spineless hateful arrogant bootlicker.
so far, 5 chapters to show how amazing the protagonist is with his new knowledge (that he did NOTHING to deserve) while all the shallow excuses-for-characters drool with anticipation of his failure...
1. Zero rapists so far. (Seriously why is every young master is a rapist in xianxia?)
2. Only a small minority of young masters/chosen are psychos for the MC to kill. Most are plain bullies that wouldn't go further than a light beating, and actually can get over their face and avoid over escalation. A decent number of them are actually decent people. I would say 1/3rd nice people, 2/3rds minor bullies that don't have the heart to cripple people. And 1/100 are psychos.
3. MC's entire clan actually treated him well despite him being "tr*sh" who can't cultivate. They didn't waste precious Qi pills on him, but gave him very generous allowance of silver (generous for a mortal who cannot cultivate at least), they never insulted him, and were concerned about his future.
4. MC actually starts out being a s*upid kid with low self esteem and works through it as he grows up and matures.
5. Despite being tagged as harem, so far there hasn't been anything of the sort
6. Cultivation system is somewhat interesting and has a fresh spin in the form of runes (although everything else about it is formulaic to the extreme)
This is a guy who had a lucky “meeting” as it were and gained his advantages through that.
Pros:
MC (Main Character) is not a randomly mass mu*dering ret*rd.
Antagonists are also not as ret*rded as the ones in novels like Emperor's Domination etc.
MC will actually try to help people out instead of just killing everyone and taking what he wants.
People from MC's family are not heartless and don't ostracize him because of his low talent.
Cons:
Writing is bland and formulaic. But aren't most Xianxia novels this way?
The world is still bending over backwards to hand the MC what he wants.
A beautiful older girl from a super powerful family (:rolls eyes:) takes pity on MC and later ends naked in front of him. What a load of crap.
MC is a tr*sh cultivator, he sleeps on top of a magic book that gives him supreme knowledge over runes (runes are just how people make the magic-like special moves seen in every cultivation novel), this gives him the possibility not being tr*sh in the future. I stopped reading when the main love interest spoke about her family
It's a super elite family that will probably want to arrange her to marry someone else and MC will have to fight someone to stop the marriage and so on.
Or will Ye Wei write the book that Nie Li found in TDG? So far I like this light novel for multiple reasons. Unlike TDG or RoT (rebirth of a thief) this kid is 13 years old in the beginning, but he doesn't have past experiences. He doesn't know what his future holds. But he tries, he makes connections, and even though he gained the knowledge out of no where, he still learns from his experiences. And makes mistakes. Like Albert Einstein once said, "He who never made a mistake, never tried anything new." And Nie Li is perfect in almost every way. Same thing with Nie Yan (RoT). We don't see their past experiences in the light novels, and we don't see them really learning new things. They take and cheat from the past. But I do have to admit... they are pretty bad*ss XD This is the reason I love Mad Snail. I believe you really should read all of his books. I can't stop when I start.
