Fox Demon Cultivation Manual

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

By some freak coincidence, Song Ci mistakenly consumed the blood of the Demon King, causing himself to become a demon too. A weak scholar…… forced to suffer in silence.

What was even more tragic was that no matter where he went, demons would attack him from all directions braying for his blood, or they would squeeze his neck while interrogating him about his relationship with the Demon King.

As such, Song Ci became an anti-fan of the Demon King. Regardless of who praised the Demon King, he would be the first to stand out and refute them.

Song Ci fled for his life as he searched for the gate leading to the Demon Realm. Along the way, he clung on to the thigh of an influential man, and went to great pains to persuade him to slay the Demon King together with him and restore peace to the human world.

Song Ci, “Sooner or later, I will skin the Demon King, rip the tendons off him, and drink his blood!”

Rong Bai (smiling), “I admire the way you think.”

Who knew that, after entering the demon realm —

Tens of thousands of monsters bowed their heads and kowtowed to this thigh beside him and shouted “Long live the Demon King!”

Song Ci was stunned.

Rong Bai (smiling), “What did you say you were going to do when you came to the Demon Realm?”

Song Ci, “It, it’s all a misunderstanding……”

So I just finished this after binge-reading it for two days, and I have got to scream Song Ciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!

Honestly, I loved almost everything about it. There were some bits that dragged a bit for me, but I think that was more because of my desire to get that ship satisfaction than the bits that "dragged" in the novel genuinely being boring.

I was surprised to like this so much, but I really did! The character's all have flaws and virtues, and lots of character growth. The relationship comes along nicely, in... more>> my honest opinion!

The story has enough twists and turns to keep you wanting to read on despite it being way past the time you ought to go to sleep, ahaha. It has a really good pace, not too fast and not too slow.

I'll be doing my re-read of it in a few days (a slower re-read), but I can't see my lovely opinion of this story changing, so take this as my finished review! <<less

OMG, I loved this fic 🤗. I loved how Song Ci slowly transformed from a coward who only knew how to run away, to a badass.

I also liked how Rong Bai has always always been a doting ML. The extra chapter was hot AF

Highly Recommended!

12-04-20 Just finished reading. This is one of the fluffiest, funniest, amazing journey so far, alongside with the lovable Master Rong Bai x Song Ci. Gonna miss them! I also very fond of side CPs, looking forward to their own journey.

I just ended this novel. All I can say is that it was good. Really good. I did not expect to like it this much.

I give it 4.5 rate because the first 50 chapters were not as entertaining as the latter 50.

... more>>
Spoiler

So in the first 50 some chapters we get to know the main characters and have some mini arcs.

Later on the plot deepens and more feelings are being revealed (love, hate, understanding)

[collapse]

I love both the MC and ML. They are so loveable, cute and funny.

Spoiler

Both MC and ML have suffered a lot when young. "But in the end it was all worth it, because I met you'' they said.

[collapse]

I fell in love with latter part of the story so much. I'm not talking about the main characters because everyone have our own opinion. I love them, you might not. It's your problem, not mine.

I wrote this review because I loved this novel and know I'm very sad to part with it. And that who ever comes upon it should read it.

Spoiler

The extra chapter will supprise you!!

The story was really good! The many mysteries that get unraveled are so fun to read!! They always are.

I really liked how morally gray the MC was! He's so funny, like deadass insulting one of the strongest and most scary people within the six realms, to his face!! And he LET him WWW

Ww I really liked side CPs too!! Obviously I like the main one too!! You can literally see that is mutual that you have to be blind to not see that they're in love!!!!! Not unlike other novels... more>> where the MC is literally coerced into the relationship, and is coerced into doing the PAPAPA.

Also also, the translation was really good!!!!! It was smoothly translated and easy to read!!!!

All in all, great story, great cp and a great translation!! I'll definitely recommend it to YOU!!!!!

It is a worth reading novel indeed.

First 50 chapters were a bit boring, but the second part was really entertaining.

a beautiful and soft story about unveiling the past and present mysteries with/for the loved one. ML is really gentle and indulgent and really supportive of MC. MC is a coward and cautious at the beginning but slowly develops into a strong minded brave fox. ML is the best boy and no one can change my mind.

I was just recently done reading this novel. Honestly, for me, I want to recommend this novel to other fellow readers cause I love the mini-arcs and the characters arcs of this novel. This is already added to my list of favorite BL novels. Personally, I'll be bold enough to say that this is one of the underrated novels despite it being just a part of the main series.

The mini-arcs are all about love. Both mini-arcs have their own "main characters" that suffered from their journey in love. Especially the... more>> second mini-arc, my heart breaks for the 'shou' of that story. His life was a tragedy and he wasn't supposed to experience love but because a certain Immortal made a mistake thus, it added to his list of tragedies that the character has to experience. It was heartbreaking, honestly.

Also, I would like to say this, the mini-arcs happens as the main couples of the novel journey towards the demon realm, which is in connection with the synopsis:
Spoiler

which is all this time the MC is not aware that the man, which is the ML, is the demon king.

[collapse]

I'm saying this so that, you won't be confused. As they go on the journey, the ML has to do something that is connected with the main series but rest assured you won't be confused because the author will mention why he is doing it. At least, you are given a heads-up. All we can do is wait for someone to translate the main series.

Regarding the plot, I love how the author uses the time-traveling, it wasn't confusing at all despite that this novel is a part of the series. I also love how the author shows and tells us the background of each couple. Usually, it mainly focuses on the shou but this time, the author also focused on the uke.

Also, I like how the side characters are not only mentioned in passing, all of them have a connection. All of them have reasons why they were introduced despite, as I said earlier, that this is just a part of the series. They are mentioned in this novel so it is believed that they will be present in the main series albeit as a side character.

All in all, the plot is well-written and it was astounding. It is also heart-wrenching because of the couples' past. Both of them suffered, especially the shou, the author made me believe that he was living an easy life but oh boy! I was sorely mistaken. The shou has his share of tragedy and I like how the author:
Spoiler

Went with the direction of not forgiving the mother. It was his mother who put him in such a bad state and made him resent his life and wanting for a new one, which made him have a connection with the ML, thus the current story.

[collapse]

I already love this novel, now I'm looking forward to the main series. I just can't wait. I hope someone can translate it. I'll gladly support them!

P.S This novel wasn't supposed to be part of the main series and the main couples of this novel are side characters of the main series. This novel was created, I guess, I believe if I remember it correctly the readers ask for a separate story for our dear Song Ci and Tu Shan Rong Bai. Honestly, this novel has a greater opportunity to be just a stand-alone novel but I still love it, especially that the author didn't confuse me at least.

P.P.S A great thumbs-up to the translator. You have to check it out. It was an easy read because the dedication and effort were obviously seen in the translation. So Thank you! Translator-sama ♥

Loving both Song Ci x Tu Shan Rong Bai ♥ <<less

This is the year that I discovered BL and having read several novels already, this is one of my favorites. The plot was full of interesting characters and twists and turns that made me want to find out what would happen to them next. What I liked most was that the side characters were not simply introduced and then forgotten but were given there own stories to support the theme of the novel. There were parts that were disgustingly romantic but only in a way that makes you want to... more>> keep reading to be disgusted further. I liked that the couples in this novel were respectful of each other, which is a change from a lot of novels that have one side constantly being bullied. All in all a funny, sometimes heartbreaking, but ultimately fuzzy-feelings love story of fate and devotion. <<less

i started reading this before it was completed and I looooved this. Sadly (truly) my opinion changed after somewhere after chapters 85-90.

What happened? Why did the story quite literally fall through? I reread the begining and it was amazing and the potential of the story had me always waiting for new chapters.

I still recommend reading this, your heart is just going to break when you'll watch it all go to shit

Part that made me enjoy the story was the translation it was easy for me to read the novel because of it. Although the story got me confused on some parts since I felt like the important scenes that needed detailed explanation was not given. If this was my first time reading this type of setting I would probably be confused so much. Reading the plot immediately captivated my interest. I enjoyed reading the novel at the beginning but felt a bit rushed at the end and some parts felt... more>> like it was dragged on for so long so I had a mixed feeling when the story ended. If you are looking for real sexy time you will only see it at the extra chapters. All in all it's a fluffy romance story. <<less

I found this on my 'to read' list and I didn't even know when I had added it, but how glad I am I did!

There were some pretty funny scenes, there was action, mystery and a bit of fluff, too.

I was really satisfied with the plot! There wasn't a single chapter I found boring.

There were some characters that were introduced but didn't hold any importance which is, I suppose, because they're linked with other novels of the same author. I'd like to read the others, too, if someone decided to... more>> translate them.

I liked the protagonist's personality a lot. He starts off as a poor mortal that turned into a demon and is determined to turn back, no mattet what. But, throughout the story he undergoes such a character development, he becomes aware of his real desires and begins to shape his life the way he wants.

The romance is on point, too. I got the feeling that Song Ci and Rong Bai genuinely care for each other.

It's such a good read, I pulled two all-nighters because I simply couldn't resist reading the next chapter. Yes it has it's flaws other people have already pointed out in their reviews, but it's a really good work overall.

Forgot to rate it.. -_- 4.5 would it be ~~~ <<less

This story and plot are actually good and it draws us in. MC and ML are both lovable and interesting.

I really cried several times reading this story. Every side character (they are canon) has their own stories and relationships.

The author said that this book is a series but other books haven't translated it seems. So the story will seem as though it was incomplete. But the plot was well written.

If you love demons, foxes, wolves and deities, then this story is the right choice. ? Give it a try

Loved reading this, especially the beginning, but I felt like things were dragging on a bit and after the arc that ended in chapter 87, I felt like I needed a break. ? I’m gonna put this on hold, but the translation quality and the cute beginning is definitely worth a 4!

It's sweet but also has some hidden bitterness. It has layers of plot, and has some time jumps, but it's done well and is surprisingly easy to follow. While there are other books in the series, this can definitely be read as a standalone novel, with the wonderful translator Lianyin supplementing additional info from other books along the way. The relationship between Song Ci and Rong Bai is so sweet and pure, I love it!

It took me some time to get into this story but now I am totally engaged. What I want to highlight is the quality of translation - it is not often that I read danmei with such a good translation and a lot of explanatory notes too. I am not saying that all others bad, there are many good translators but still a lot of pretty bad translations too unfortunately. So this is a rare pleasure for me.

I love this novel. This idea in description interested me I was think this amusing. This story soo sweet and funny but past of the MC, ML and even minor characters pretty sad. Every arc is exciting and interesting. It's also have some riddles and love story's. In the beginning MC scared everything and tried run away but with ML he become braver and don't afraid to fight with strong opponents. He also will protect his lover. ML also love him very much he always cares and protect him. Also... more>> he very imperceptibly tease him. It's so touching that independent of their hard past they weren't be broken and they fated stay together and love each other. <<less

Slow romance so far, with a nice case style and plenty of interesting, well developed characters. The writing (translation) is easy to follow and clear, even with plenty of odd terms and place names.

Some of the stories are fairly tragic, and the MC could use a new brain, but he's grown some through the progress of the story so hopefully he still has more development to look forward to. ML is charming enough (and OP for sure). A curious mix of shounen style fight&growth and BL styles.
