The Hidden Immortal隐秘的长生者

The first 80 chapters are pretty good, it can even be said that mc acts like a hidden immortal (cultivator). It even gave me a slight “it was the best of times, it was the worst of times” vibe. But the moment mc gets a little bit of power, it does a full 180.

First, morality. No matter what mc does, the story always puts him on a moral pedestal. If mc needs to kill someone, all of them turn out to be assholes; not a single one is allowed to be normal enough to put mc through tough decision. Like, if he won’t kill, he’ll break a promise — but if he does, how is he any better? Such dilemma can be used to introduce heart demons or some shit btw , cultivator stories love the trope.

Second, consequence. In the worstcase, mc walks away unscathed; in the best, he actually benefits. He’s like, “As long as I don’t court death I’m good” then puts himself in courting death situation.

Third, stakes. It never feels like mc can lose, or that he’s even remotely anxious about his problems. He just goes with the flow, which would’ve been fine if he focused only on himself, but he doesn’t. So his greatest excuse “I can bide my time and solve it slowly” is shit.

Overall, if you won’t think about it, it’s decent. The moment you stop though, whether to let chapters build or to reflect upon the plot you’ll have to convince yourself to come back.

#panic# chapter 114 is empty.

It's pretty nice.
I've caught up on the latest chapter, and will come back for sure.

Although he's not strong at the start like the title suggests, the title is click bait.

The title is a massive scam, the mc is NOT a "hidden" immortal, he is the most high profile dude i've seen in this kind of novel. The only low profile thing he's ever done is hide the pythons in the lake, that's it. He literally casts rain spells in the middle of a drought, feeds his pets the said rain like he's a disney princess in the middle of the day, keeps crows the size of a human at his place, and yet the damn side characters act completely oblivious to all of this, like, they don't even question why small animals move furniture for him or why his crows are so massive. And in one of the recent chapters he literally makes his massive damn crows bring swords he forged that have aoe slash effects to a battlefield between two countries, like his country wouldn't try to find him in the future by searching for those crows. The title should be "mortal immortal" or something

So my biggest gripe with this novel is that the name is a scam. This isn't about some hidden immortal living a low-key life. It's about constantly praising a pretty high profile protagonist. If that is your cup, then this is okayish, should be good enough to pass some time.

guys upvote my novel suggestion its a very decent novel

Hi,

I wanted to suggest an improvement to the search functionality that I think would significantly improve the experience for readers.

Currently, when searching for a keyword (e.g. "dragon"), the results page shows all matching novels but provides no way to sort or filter them. This makes it hard to find quality content, especially when a common word returns hundreds of results.

I'd love to see the following added:

Sorting options:
• By rating (highest first)
• By popularity (views/reads)
• By last updated (crucial for following ongoing novels)
• By number of chapters
• By release date

Filters:
• Genre/tags
• Status (completed / ongoing / hiatus)
• Origin/language (Chinese, Korean, English, etc.)
• Minimum star rating
• Minimum number of ratings (to avoid novels with 1 inflated review)
• Chapter count range
• Content rating (all ages / mature)

Search scope options:
• Search in title only vs tags vs full description
(A novel with "dragon" in the title is very different from one that mentions it once in the synopsis)

Even adding just sorting by rating and a status filter would make a big difference. Happy to elaborate on any of these. Thanks for the work you put into the site!

IT's good for passing time, 5x5-20+40-40/10.
