Read until MC heads towards Eastern Hundred Cities, story goes extremely downhill from there. (~250 chapters) Pros:
1) MC has good reason for his arrogance/cunning (since he's lived through millions of years) & has plans after plans prepared & isn't relying on pills, treasures, etc that fall from heaven like most wuxia novel MCs. (Those treasures, pills, etc, are usually stuff he or his students left behind.) 2) MC actually has reasons for destroying sects unlike MCs in most wuxia novels, dude planned it all along. Cons:
1) Author recycles the same scenario over and over and over again. Fights drag on like Dragon Ball Z but worse because of how s*upid the opponents are, how the author keeps saying how "amazing" the opponent is, just to have the opponent crushed in one sweep by the MC....... somehow people are also able to instantly recognize MC's super abilities/physique at a glance even though they were supposedly missing for thousands, if not millions of years, 2) The amount of padding in the story puts wonderbras to shame. Cultivation/abilities take up so much of each chapter so things progress painfully slowly. 3) MC's opponents all behave the same, it's like MC is fighting the same people over and over again with the same allies. Clearly they're all practicing some sort of heaven defying resurrection technique which only has the requirement that they change their name. /s "Geniuses/ancestors" keep flaunting their power (acceptable the first few times, but after he heads into the Eastern Hundred City, Li Qiye's infamy is widespread enough that there's no reason people should've been acting like that towards him. Literally two disciples almost immediately find out about his exploits in the Middle Kingdom, which makes it extremely unbelievable that word didn't spread or that the older generation (s) didn't find out either before challenging him. 4) People act extremely out of character at times. For example, this is supposedly a world of crouching dragons, hidden tigers, yet virtually everyone is ignorant to the point of ret*rdation. A few examples: MC & his entire sect is roaming along on a GIANT SNAIL, everyone laughs.... giant snail kills hundreds of them. Wtf, isn't common sense to be extremely suspicious of any weird thing that might be a hidden expert? Happens again when he's roaming along with a GIANT TALKING WORM..... people laugh, worm kills hundreds. Likewise, people laugh at MC, MC kicks their arse.

- The secondary characters are developed to a point and then moves to new characters, which is frustrating, because I'd like to see the older ones interact with newer ones more
Now you might be saying "why give it a 5*?", so here are the pros and explanation to some of the cons (again in my opinion) :-
- At some point the cultivation level doesn't matter any more, if you focus on the story (meaning the MC is op)
In conclusion, if you can get past the filler chapters and the arrogant protagonist, you will see a story in which an immortal existance, start agains with a mortal body to enact a plan developed for hunderds of thousand years, which is unraveld bit by bit. I said original story because it has a flavor of resurrection story without being one and op MC, that you can understand and believe is op because of what he's done and not some plot armor bs. Of course, there are many cliches, but still I think its something different from the rest. I can't wait to see where the story progresses.- Massive world with quality world building. The world (or worlds) is large and beautiful. Ancient and profound mysteries are explored or kept a secret on the MC's journey to the top. There are unique monsters and races (ex: A race that is comprised of just Ghosts, talking earthworms, etc) along with unique rituals that leave one puzzled. Of course, the novel does offer an explanation for most of these things.
- Great main character. Li Qiye is someone with way too much hubris. It is understandable hubris though, being an ancient expert that is over tens of millions years old, capable of grooming peak talents. He does have flaws though that I will list in the cons but as for pros, he is ruthless (something common in Chinese MCs) and calculating. Some of his schemes are extremely clever and his actions are never without thought. Sometimes he slips up but that's what keeps it entertaining. Unlike other ruthless MCs, Li Qiye enjoys teasing others constantly and he isn't affected by greed. He is constantly motivated and even his background and past is profound.
- Constantly moving story. The pacing of the story is just right. It has pretty epic battle scenes and smooth transitions from each arc.
- Character variation. There are a lot of different people that Li Qiye meets along his journey. Some of them stay, some of them don't, and the rest of them die. The characters do give the story a bit more life as they add humor and play off of Li Qiye's personality pretty well.
- Li Qiye's past could have been a separate novel. I've always been interested in the past immortals that Li Qiye have taught and raised. The fact that he taught them as a crow is hysterical to me but that also brings up the fact that he created unbreakable bonds as a small crow and raised the world's greatest experts. I would have liked to see more of his journey from scared, poor s*ave boy to a proud, immortal crow capable of overturning the heavens.
Cons:- Repetitive and Cliche. It's basically the same formula as other cultivation stories with a few unique twists. However, it does it mind numbingly repetitive with {Someone offends Li Qiye-> He offends them back -> They underestimate him -> They die and everyone else is surprised at Li Qiye's strength}. It does become self aware of this aspect though but that is later on in the novel. Too late for some people.
- Li Qiye can be aggravatingly arrogant. His arrogance is understandable but sometimes he could have avoid unnecessary conflict by just explaining some things. He can still keep his arrogance even when explaining but sometimes he doesn't feel like talking or feels that the other person doesn't deserve knowledge and it gets irritating.
- Harem. I'm not a fan of the harem genre, even when there is little to no romance in Emperor's Domination. Every beauty just becomes his maid that he grooms to become experts. The girls do have variation in their personalities though which is nice but the fact that he's just collecting all of these beauties out of nowhere is bothersome. Mainly because it leads to my next point.
- The author's need to describe how beautiful a woman is. He literally describes every part of the woman's body as some sort of mystical treasure and blah blah blah. It gets repetitive and annoying. We get it, she's hot. Who cares.
Overall, give the novel a read and see if you like the first couple of chapters. It's a really good novel to binge read. Just some mindless entertainment imo but higher standard quality than some of the other stuff around. Of course, it's not on the same... more>>
