I love this story more than Nano coz of the crazy MC. I guess I like psycho MCs more.🤣 Srsly though, Nano MC Yeon woo is tame compared to Og Cheon-ma. I am so happy I found it. Would recommend readers of Nano Machine to read this the prequel definitely! The Heavenly Demon (Chron-ma) is called that for a reason. It truly potrays him as a demon and it's so good.🤌🏻 I like the whole series though.❤️

This story is good. I enjoy it especially if you read the Author's previous works. Which make many references in this on. I'll say that many people will enjoy the beginning part more than the middle part. By the middle it does drag while going to the imperial arc. Thou it gives very much lore hints to the Mc's past and why they killed his grandpa. I'm mixed by the final arc since it goes all out Avengers endgame style but the final fight is a bit of a miss.... more>> Thou at the end it's pretty endearing. <<less

It’s ok. I’d rate it as a rather standard story.

The first part is quite good (100-150 chapters). After that, it feels like the author got a bit too much tunnel vision as the story expanded and story beats started falling flat.

The ending is pretty generic, and quite honestly a letdown given how the story builds up to that point.

... more>> However, I will give props for wrapping up many side character plotlines in a smooth manner.

tl:dr - it’s filler, by the midpoint you’ll start feeling like you’ve read the story somewhere else before. <<less

It's alright, nothing super good nothing bad.

Fight scenes are quite boring since they talk for 100 lines after ever move, and 99% of the side characters gawk at how they underestimated the MC for the 500th time and marvel at his epic progression speed, it gets tiring after the 500th time.

Side characters are ok, the spirit he has is so annoying, repeats the same words 500 times and has nothing interesting about her.

Honestly don't have anything more to say about this, There are better story's out there if you want... more>> something with a 'evil' MC, I'll give the most obvious recommendation over this one, Master of Gu

Atleast the MC there is interesting and doesn't feel like a edgy 16 year old <<less

A fun read

The MC is, as you'd expect, fond of killing and doesn't shy away from it. He is also intelligent and kind of OP talent-wise (Think Daniel's copycat ability in Lookism).

The characters are interesting albeit the side characters are sometimes a little stale. Which is as expected of a murim story since they usually have their focus on the protagonist.

... more>> The story itself isn't bad, and most chapters have some form of action or entertainment leaving you always wanting to read more.

This story is also part of the nano machine universe, taking place long after the events of Absolute Sword Sense, with some characters making a reappearance or being mentioned.

TLDR: I would recommend this to anybody who was a fan of nano or other murim stories. <<less

One of my favourites in this genre, it's just so damn good. I liked Nano Machine, but this is way better when it comes to character, plot, and development. The MC here is a psycho, so beware of that. Although contrary to popular belief, he isn't actually evil. He's still caring towards his allies and he's not a s*umbag. He later gets a hot wife and stays faithful to her. I'm not about to spoil who she is, but it's kind of obvious now that I think about it.

It's not bad, slightly above average.

The whole series mainly centered around MC as the "origin" but the characters building and world building are heavily set up and driven based on the sequel and prequel.

Pro: MC character is pretty good, no bs and straight to business.

Con: I'll be honest, I agree with the other reviews saying its mostly filler. The filler as in the writing, not the storyline because the whole arcs are necessary as plot devices. This novel could be less than 300 chapters but still contain all the plot... more>> and will be 100x better. The repetitive full name, title and ranks etc and the same reaction dialogues feels like the author is just trying to fill in the page space for longer chapters. Towards the middle and ending it feels tiring and like reading a study essays where the writers just trying to fill in the total words count and I lost interest of the main story. The second thing is combining this with other author series, the origin and the "endgame" for a wuxia I see the idea and its a borderline xianxia (author is definitely big fan of journey to the west especially) but the whole series universe had a very weak main enemy/boss characters background. Towards the ending it feels more flat and very cliche.

TLDR; it's a decent read but could be shorter and the final "bosses" character background could be better. <<less
