Description

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

The mysterious boy Ling Chen is saved by a little girl as he lay on the street dying. Years later, he strikes a deal to save this savior-turned sister and enters the virtual world. In a future Earth where advanced warfare has forced nations to settle issues virtually or else suffer the consequences, Ling Chen bursts into the scene and goes from unknown to legend. Yet all is not as it seems, for Ling Chen has a dark past, and there is a greater mystery at hand behind this virtual world.

To save his terminally ill little sister, Ling Chen enters the newly released virtual game world and joins a small gaming studio comprising entirely of women. From now on walking upon his path towards the pinnacle. An ancient, evil item almost forgotten by history, the “Lunar Scourge” helps forge his unsurpassable legend, and causes him to unknowingly step upon a path that is destined to be punished by the heavens, the way of the Shura.

A very good quasi-VRMMO novel. Really recommended to read for those who love OPMC.

Spoiler

Harem included so please beware

There is less grinding like other novels of the same genre, the story development is stable in both game world and IRL.
Spoiler

Although some battles looks exaggerated but with the abilities explained its easier to understand. The MC is not 'no brains only brawn' type of guy. He is impulsive when it comes to his loved ones, otherwise very composed. Once he routed more than 3 million player army just by using the words (he used his mind control incantation technique from his second class) instead of just brandishing the weapons which is of course hopeless for a melee class

Inside the game, you can just enjoy the MC being OP. Outside the game, I feel like there have been some downright dumb developments recently. There are too many weird supernatural events going on.

Well, it’s your typical xianxia MC with op skills and heaven defying luck, just in an mmorpg setting. He has op real life skills (Much like Xiao Yao in Zhan Long), and there is an air of mystery around his background. For people who don’t know, this is written by the same author of Against the Gods (ATG). It is similar in the respect that the characters have that op xianxia thing. So yeah, for people who like Zhan Long + Against the Gods.

By the way, the spoiler below is... more>> my inference on whats probably gonna happen. So please don’t read it if you don’t want me to spoil it all (there are huge hints that its actually gonna happen)

Spoiler

This is my inference/hypothesis, but there is a tragedy tag here, if you read up to here, its hinted that the lil sis might die (scene where doctor views video and tells you about the reality of the drug) and the MC might take the path of a shura (killer) as a result (in the description and scene where the spirit inside the lunar scourge hints that the game might affect real life too.) because his sis is his life... Perhaps a little like Duoluo Dalu here? So yea, just my inference and warning for those who read this.

I’m loving this story. I can feel the struggle. Reveling in every victory, and cursing every defeat... not that there’s too many of those yet.

MC has to think his way out of death, but the tools necessary to do so are within his reach. a very solid highly recommended read. The surprises and twists keep you on the edge of your seat...

Has a lot of potential. The plot is moving at the right speed, does not feel rushed or dragged.

I gave this novel a try because it was so highly rated but was slightly disappointed when it turned out to be just your run-of-the-mill vrmmorpg storyline. It’s not a bad story at all but nothing that really makes it stand out either. The game world itself was well fleshed out but the characters development outside of the game is pretty lacking. Not a lot of depth to the characters (very one dimensional) except for the MC with his mysterious past. Anyways, props to all the translators who did an... more>> excellent job. <<less

I really like how heartwarming and fun it is. No novel is perfect, but to me the good outshines the bad, so much that I can't remember what annoyed me about it. I only wish I could read it all at once.

It's a great read, you'll like it if you like ATG and other OPAF MCs... just that the 'feels' on the early chapters really hits hard...

Hes op ness is on different level than most of VRMMO protagonist, and I think that is acceptable however its not only him. His pets are also very OP, I dont know what the author's have in mind maybe he wants him to fight againts the world.. I do recommend the first 80 chapters its really interesting :P

this novel is really good for people who loves mystery, action romance subplot.
it has some similarity to SAO because he is playing a game but still affects reality because of what he has discovered. A novel where VRMMORPG decides the fate of a country.
well its a good novel and a must try to read.

An interesting vrmmorpg novel. If you like a MC with a dark, turbulent past and OP skills give this novel a try.

The genre of this novel is definitely: action - Litrpg - romance/harem. Most of the action takes place in a VRMMORPG game with our protagonist, who being a former infamous top player who isn't know very well by others. Though there is a lot of 'sidestory/filler' outside of the game world, which absolutely isn't a problem. The first problem with this story is the MC, expect the plot armor to be strong in this one. The MC is handed goodies everywhere, although he has to work to get it. He... more>> is also handed tons of responsibility and often gets in hopeless situation. The MC is OP and is only opponents are figures that are boss class monsters in game, kinda like raid bosses in other games, which one absolutely shouldn't be able to solo like that. The 2nd problem with the story isn't a problem with the story itself but with the translationspeed, this novels packs a lot of cliffhangers and waiting 3 days for another release gets tiresome, especially because the chapters aren't that long. The reason for the LitRPG tag is because it can't be considered to be a true game, sometimes the author introduces thing into this game world that isn't supposed to be in a game, like event where character can't recover (etc.). This novel is great if you are looking for a read where the MC just stomps other players with a special kind of ferocity. His only opponents are the PVE environment of the world so don't expect too much PVP, as the MC is super OP. The novel should be rated 18, there are some s*x scenes and some could be considered 'in*est'. However it doesn't take away from the quality of the work and if you are like me then the romance scenes doesn't hurt at all. This novel also has the tag harem so you can expect at lot of flirting and so on in the future.

The Romance is also quite early so you don't have to wait for a million chapters before the love interest (s) are introduced, which is nice. <<less

Dissapointed in Mars...

I didnt expect ATG author to be such a brainwashed racist.

But then again, even from ATG you can somewhat observe his crooked personality about his views towards woman mostly.

... more>> They all seem like trophies for the MC, good wives to take care of the house while MC is missing, plus im almost sure author even condones r*pe irl judging from both his novels, but thats just a guess.

Anyway, im not really surprised as i've long known most chinese are racists and view woman as lesser than man, but still I was kind of dissapointed. <<less

The overall story is not that bad but the author is very bad.

Things I learned about author after reading this novel

  • He absolutely hates and loathes japan for some reason. There is a full ark just dedicated to destroying japan and their people. You can feel the hate when reading that arc. I cant even blame MC for that I can only blame the author who wrote it that way.
  • He didn't do enough research about games before writing a VR MMO themed novel. My guess is he took a look at games like DOTA or LEAGUE OF LEGENDS and came up with his ideas. I am saying this because the cool down timings of big skills is very low like the most OP skills at the beginning only had like 120 secs cool down. The fights go on for long time with so less cooldown
  • Author is a loli. This one is kind of obvious form all his works too. But man I hate reading MC having s*x with 10 years old who are described as cute and he considered as daughters and then having s*x by the end. There is absolutely no reason for them to join the harem but they still do.
Coming to the story, it doesn't deserve the rating it has. It is way too high for this novel.... more>> But at the end of the novel you might feel somewhat satisfied if you are able to forget how much of an as*hole MC is. Speaking of which the whole novel every one keeps telling MC that hes not 'evil'. But he mol*sts women when they are in vulnerable state, takes their n*de video and blackmails them worst of all he r*pes them and takes their v**ginity when they are in vulnerable state and then makes them s*aves for the rest of their life. Even after that a guy comes and tell him ' you are not evil'. If that is not evil I don't know what is.

I normally like arrogant and anti protagonist MC. But there is a bottom line with those kind of characters like getting satisfying revenge or not showing mercy to enemies. But this MC pisses you so much and most of all this guy has a pea brain, he is dumb as shit.

The translation itself is very good but the formatting of the status window is very bad.

Thats all..i wanted to rant after reading about that bullsh*t MC. <<less

I'll echo a few comments here. If you haven't read past about chapter 400 then you shouldn't post a review. The MC takes a drastic change in personality. Previous to this the MC was likeable and was reliable. His character was solid and you felt like you know him. That all changed.

First the Japanese hatred. For those of you unfamiliar with this, a tremendous amount of Chinese despise the Japanese. If you want to know why in a microcosm, just Google the massacre of Nanking. There is a history and... more>> it's understandable, but I'm not particularly interested in politics in a fantasy novel and this one goes a little over the top.

Without spoilers, the MC also becomes a rapist, mu*derer and for all intents a pe*ophile, even though it's dressed up as the child being thousands of years old. It wrecks his heroic image.

Finally he's just too OP. I like my heroes to be OP, but this was silly. <<less

The author ended up making the MC too OP to the point that no one in the game can fight against him. Like the only opponents that the MC always face against are the NPC.

Also the author introduced a lot of things like the "Reputation System" yet never once in the novel that it said to have any use. Nothing. Plus there are some skills that the MC and his pets got from leveling up yet we have not seen them using those skills.

Also one more (spoiler alert), the novel... more>> suddenly turn from VRMMORPG to some type of xianxia novel? I'm not kidding, toward the end there's no more game system, no more level up, just straight up teleporting to other planets, flying into space and destroying planets and stars it's ridiculous. <<less

After the Japanese arc, I've completely lost interest. From an MC you root for, to a tr*sh MC.

I usually love anti-heroes but this guy's just a plain villain that you can not reason with. The author turned the MC to somebody I can no longer sympathize with. Such a waste.

MC is the most s*upid MC i've ever read even though he is described as incredibly smart. Obvious hints after hints won't make him suspect or understand anything. Everything must be spelled to him clearly, even after that sometimes after many chapters it looks like he just knows it the first time or forget about it.

If you don't have high tolerance about s*upid things repeating over and over again, I strongly suggest that you do not read this.

I tried this novel cause of Against the Gods, and was horribly disappointed.

In general, I see it as a story with a huge potential, but horribly ruined by rushing it and by catering to h**ny kids.

The setting and an outline of the story seem really fine and initial 100-or-so chapters were nice... but in general the story is rushed and linear. MC gets all the OP items and pets right when he needs them. Apart from a few situations, all the other characters are pretty much useless (well, sometimes they... more>> try to defend something until MC arrives). Skills quickly become so op that it's difficult to make MC use them wisely anymore.

Before any tension builds up, most of the situations get resolved.

In the later part of the novel MC pretty much becomes a s*x (and mol*sting/rape) machine with tr*shy and domineering character. I'm not sure whether that's a cultural difference between east and west, but everyone seems pretty fine with top guy deserving tons of women at his feet. (and no, I don't mind harems in general... it's just that in this novel it was really bad) <<less

One of the best harem, sci-fi novels. I really like reading it when in terms of Ling Chen's character and personality the best. Read this guys, if you want to just for fun. The only downside are just that, the novel was ended too fast. The romance progress slow, and the other female lead were forgotten and their snusnu scenes were not described unlike those others.
