The Heavenly Dao exists.

It decides what is right and what is wrong. To act against it is to sin, to act according to it is to be blessed by its graces.

The world of cultivation is difficult, an unchanging principle. Yet there are those who are cherished by the Heavens, cuddled into rising above all and everyone else. How can this be? Why must this be?

What is moral and just? What is evil and immoral?!

WHY DOES IT GET TO DECIDE?!

So we, the Sinners, we act against the Heavenly Daos, grasp our own fates in hopes of truly overturning them.

This is a Journey of a young boy born Blessed, but turned Sinner.

The greatest sinner of them all. Collapse

    Dropped at chapter 1. I have nothing against ruthless or evil MC. I'm okay if the MC has to kill since there are times when it is necessary. But rape (Forced oral sex)? That's just for personal pleasure. I've heard plenty of good things about this novel but this is not for me.

    You should read, it was explains in the later chapters

      It’s not for personal pleasure. He was schemed and targeted by people from his sect and he was alone. And taking this woman’s yin helped him breakthrough. Life> Morals. Pretty realistic if u ask me.

        False sense of morality? You have no moral that's what it is. I don't need to read to know what it is. I say the mc is just a villain hypocrite. No matter the circumstances, rape don't justify, you people are just being twisted by the novel. Like fanboys that can't listen to criticism.

        Go out and rape someone and see what happens to you, see what will people think of you. No matter if you had a reason or not, or if that female is a bitch or not, you will still be prosecuted by law.

        Even if someone point a gun at your head to force you to kill someone else, you still go to jail for it. It is still sin. (Although that's the point of this novel)

        Not mentioning that in this case, the female is innocent. I say this mc is a hypocrite. Killing innocent, raping, for whatever reason.

        Seeing you people trying so hard to defend and justify for his action makes me want to puke. A person who bend down to circumstances, a person without principle.

        I don't like what I don't like, no matter how you fanboys try to convince me. I really wanna see if one of these days, when a guy like the mc rape your women, will you still defend him? All of you cuck fanboys amuse me.

          It's useless to speak to someone who has barely read 1 chapter not knowing any circumstenses behind wei weiyun's action, doesnt even acknoledge the response of the commentor before and jumps to his percieved conclusions. If anything, as an avid reader of cultivation novels, i can tell you unlike others he doesnt go philandering, has strict principles and doesnt treats his woman like bagages. If you had bothered to read, they would confront each other later and everything would be revealed.

          She would’ve become a sex slave/ servant for the sect anyway. And he let her go free after he got her yin.

          Spoiler: Doing this to her was always his biggest regret, but he said he would do it again if he had to. Anyway, he took her as his wife later on and they accepted each other.

          You might be right about the getting cucked and not liking rape part. But I can assure that this was the only time he went against his principles, and he made up for it in the future.

          If you think he’s a villain who goes around raping and killing innocents; not true!

          He’s as realistic as it can get. If u read on further, you’ll understand that this novel doesn’t deserve any haters. Not fanboying btw; it’s just the truth.

            I am not saying the novel itself is bad since it is realistic, but it is how the MC is acting does not conform to my liking.

            Whether if he regrets it or not, what's done is done. If regret can solve all issues, why do we need the law and police? If I were to kill your family, then regret it, will you forgive me? Since I was forced by circumstances. NO, you will still hate me. See what I mean by hypocrite? It's double standard.

            My point is, yes I didn't read it, so I don't know what he does later or how is he as a person. But the damage is done. No amount of action later can redeem him. He raped and killed, that's it. First impression, you get me?

            Anyway, how is she his wife when she's already dead at chapter 1? She's someone else's lover. He got cucked.

              I think you are mistaken.that woman who had a lover and the on he rapes are different people.he gave her a choice of being free or dying.this is not a modern civilization where there are laws here everything goes if you have power to back it up.basically who families or clans if they piss off the wrong person,do we see that happening in the modern civilization so don't have the expectation for everyone in a world where power is the only thing that matters to have people acting like a good guy.
              And he doesn't force the woman he rapes to be his wife,he basically gives her a choice if she wants to her wife or not which she has free will to choose over.
              Just read like 50 chapters atleast before giving a negative feedback like in my opinion this is one of the best written cultivation novels which doesn't have the usual cliche young masters,or a foolish mc which can be manipulated easily.

                Then are you not going to mention the woman in chapter 1? Please don't gloss this over. It's because of her and her lover I dropped this. It just doesn't make sense for what he did to her.

                Why aren't you answering? Is he forced to rape the girl in chapter 1? Is he forced to kill the couple? I honestly want to know before I decide to read it. Can you spoil me on what happened to the girl in chapter 1?


                Doing this to her was always his biggest regret

                The girl from chapter 1 is not important so it doesn't matter? The girl who became his wife later is important so he felt regret? Did he not feel regret for the girl in chapter 1? Is this hypocrisy? Or is it a double standard?


                "At least in death, you two will be together."

                Or is this all his regret amount to? Just this one sentence and that's it?

                  The couple tried to kill him if you read 2 chapters ahead.
                  If you read a little more you could find out that the sect he was in told him to kill everyone in the sect the couple were from so he gave the girl a choice whether she would use her body or die.so she chose the former.after the deal he left her free if he was truly evil he could have made her into slave or killed her and one more point to note is he didn't rape her for enjoyment but because she had a physique that could further his cultivation.
                  If you think he is committing all these acts for his enjoyment then you are wrong again as it was his sect mission to kill everyone in that sect.
                  Just give it a read as the mc doesn't do shit like this again

                  Why do you keep glossing over the ones that died in chapter 1? I'm not talking about Li Yin. I'm talking about the girl that died at first. Did she revive? Is it later revealed that she is Li Yin? Because she doesn't have a physique so he killed her after raping her? Because she is not important?

                  No matter how much better he treats everyone else, he is already a shit IMO for raping the girl in chapter 1 then killing her. Why did he do it? Is he forced? Is it a double standard? Nevermind. Actually, no matter how it is, I just can't find a way to justify his action to make me feel better. Sure, killing them is fine since it is the sect's order and the couple probably attacked the MC for self-defense since he is hunting them. Let's take a hundred million steps back, let's say that plundering their Yin is for his cultivation. Then what about oral sex? Did it help in anything? What? He wanna feed her his sperms to boost her cultivation then kill her a minute later?

                  No matter what, even when I tried hard to continue reading it, I can't, I kept having this tugging feeling in my chest because of the shit he's done in chapter 1. I can't continue reading this without feeling uncomfortable. This is why I kept emphasizing this or I will probably never go past chapter 3 forever.

                  Bro that girl he killed is from the sect he is told to kill.the only survivor of that sect is the girl he rapes and he didn't make her a slave after that but gave her all the resource to cultivate and sets her free.
                  Please read like 5 chapters because you don't what is going on at all.
                  The only women he rapes is the one with physique that's why this was his biggest regret as the circumstance he was in forced him.you would know all this if you just read a little more so please don't argue when you have read 1 chapter and think you know everything.

                  How about you read chapter 1 again? It is already mentioned that he obviously did something to her. Please justify that.

                  Why rape her (Not Li Yin)? Let's take a hundred million steps back, let's say that plundering their Yin is for his cultivation. Then what about oral sex? Did it help in anything? What? He wanna feed her his sperms to boost her cultivation then kill her a minute later?

                  If I cannot get past this issue, I will never be able to put the stone down to continue reading the story without feeling uncomfortable. I'm not being stubborn here, but this MC obviously has a double standard. Oh, and please don't mention giving them choices again. I feel like I want to puke when hearing that. It is like pointing a gun at your head and saying: "Sex or death, choose one." Is that being given a choice?

                  Yeah I just read that but the main characters personality is different after that as I think the author decided to change his personality as after that he is not shown to have such a mentality as in the first chapter.
                  So if you want to drop the novel just because of the first chapter just ignore the first chapter.

                  It is explained that there are circumstances that forced him to do the things he did. He is not a villain, nor is he a good guy. He has no qualm about doing what he has to do to get to his objectives. Every action he does has a purpose.

                  The only exception was when he forced the girl in chapter 1 into oral sex which only served to pleasure himself. I do not understand the purpose of that.

                  Story-wise, it is well written. It has depth and is not shallow. Some side characters are made well and you won't feel that the MC is interacting with retarded robots. The story is not written as if the MC is the only person in the world that matters. Everyone has their own goals. Rarely will you find any jarring plot holes that will make you go 'WTF?'.

                  When you continue reading, you will keep thinking that this MC is a villain. He is ruthless, overbearing, and prideful. But because the story is told from his perspective, you will be looking at things from his perspective. Many things he did were forced onto him and because of that, you start empathizing with him and also start rooting for him.

                  For me though, because of the things he did in chapter 1, I was unable to bring myself to side with him. Therefore, I was reading with the mindset of a bystander and was cynical with everything he did while calling him a hypocrite. This is the reason why I kept emphasizing the girl in chapter 1 before I want to start reading. Turned out, I was right, I shouldn't have read it with this kind of mindset. It made me unable to root for him wholeheartedly.

                  If the author did not start the novel with that first chapter, it would have made it easier for me to integrate. Yes, the story is well-written, but a well-written story does not mean you will enjoy it.

                  Halfway through I couldn't take it anymore and I went to read 'Kidnapped Dragons' to smooth my heart from all the pressure. I am one of those faint-hearted.

                  I don't remember which chapter, but it was clarified later on that the girl from chapter 1 proposed doing it to buy time for her lover to rescue her instead of being killed/taken away. So WW didn't actually rape her but i agree that it should have been made clear in chapter 1.
                  I too thought about dropping it after ch1 though i'm glad i continued.

                  I don't think it's character development. I think the author just changed his mind after the first chapter. For the rest of the story mc always says he has his own bottom line and he would never force a woman.

            I read novels for enjoyment, I don't like what I don't like, there's nothing I can do about it. It's why people criticize certain works (Movies, dramas, etc.). The fact that you can say this means that you probably don't immense yourself into the stuff that you read and I don't get what you mean by 'overcomplicate'. If you don't infer into the novel, you might as well go read braindead face-slapping Xianxia novel?

        That is why I kept saying that you people saying that the MC is giving his victim a choice is bullshit. They kept saying that the MC gave them a choice. But what choice did he give them when it is between death and rape? That is no choice, that was forcing them. The MC forced them, not giving them a choice.

          It's not the MC that wanted to kill/enslave them it was his sect. Then WW offered NX her freedom in exchange for dual cultivation breaking his sect's rules. He pressured her but he also saved her in the end . As for the girl from ch1 she took the initiative and even insisted if i remember correctly (was stated in later chapter), is that rape?

But I too don't like the 1 chapter it's stands alone against the rest of the whole book. I thought this was gonna be a adult novel with ruthless character. How wrong I was. It was a epic journey reading this novel in my boredom . I just would ask you to forget the 1 chapter and continue the rest. Author did a blunder with the first chapter. Maybe he was catfishing the hornies initially😂😂.

    (10/10)

    The advantages of this novel:
    1. MC has a unique cultivation method.
    2. This is a novel with an intelligent protagonist! He's so smart!
    3. The plot of the story is not forced. Every action, cause and effect has its own explanation. The plot of Armor is so sketchy. The logic of the story goes well.
    4. The harem is not forced. All the women here have brains and convictions.
    5. All minor characters get development. No forgotten trash here.
    6. Even without an MC, the story can still go on.
    7. No characters, plots, or clichéd conversations.
    8. This is the best novel on Ranobes!

    Weaknesses of this novel:
    1. After reading this novel, it is very difficult to find another good read. I miss the moment when I read a novel in a marathon. Waiting for 1 chapter per day makes me suffer.

    He’s not an overpowered protagonist! There are many people in the world who could one shot him to oblivion. He’s just super smart and knows how to play his cards right. He takes his chances properly and doesn’t rely on plot armour to save himself. Great Novel! Might wanna edit the genre tags though. The novels too good to have those shitty tags. ^_^

      He is.

      Overpowered is used to refer to a character who's too strong and unstoppable compared to the standard power levels in the series. The main character (or MC) is sometimes overpowered (or OP) when everything's in his favor and his powers are destructive.

        Nah, OP is when a person is unkillable and easily kills his opponents. For example; Saitama(OPM), most MC’s with a system etc. And the faceslapping and everything.

        Wei Wuyin is nearly killed and schemed against several times so I wouldn’t say he’s overpowered. Maybe that’s only me.

          Ну, я в принципе не против порнухи, но предпочитаю чтоб уж тогда все было чисто про нее (что то типа Парной культивации, чтоб почитал подрочил, ГГ тяночку новую в постель уложил и все), а когда сюжет - то чтоб уже сюжет и на порно вставки не отвлекаться.
          Но это произведения я начинал тоже со скепсисом, и едва не бросил по началу, однако потом очень сильно втянулся именно потому что интересно, прочитал все в запой и теперь вот слежу за обновами. Далеко не обычная культиваторщина от которой начинает подташнивать через сотню глав.
          Так что я предложил бы все же попробовать почитать еще пару десятков глав, ну а там решать тебе, кто я такой чтоб кого то заставлять читать. Просто у меня были похожие ощущения когда начинал, но продолжил и не пожалел ))

          пс: что же касается breasts and ass то на такое я лично особо не парюсь, к тому же
          . Ну и такое описание девушек - это относительный стандарт хех, jade beauties и все такое wiseacre Но по крайней мере в этой новелле этому не уделяются целые главы, максимум пару абзацев уделяется внешности если описывает очень красивую девушку.

    Ok guys, I already asked this somewhere but the comment got lost, so repeat.

    This novel brought me a lot of fun and satisfy most of requests that I seek in free-time reading (I just need WW to make Su Mei main wife instead of ignoring her cuse "don't sleep with subordinates" bruh).

    But the problem now - I've looked for next read two weeks straight and couldn't find something relatively satisfactional like this. And I need seniour readers help sigh

    Ideally I would like:
    - not strugling MC
    - clever MC (not by doing all other characters absolutely dumb, but by his own and writers IQ)
    - not too arrogant MC (not start face slapping for every insult from anyone)
    - harem 6-15 girls, but story not about harem-seeking or just beauty falling in MC's arms. Also I'll like if there won't be graphic scenes, just mentioning that MC has sex is absolutely enough, cuse it should seem like something normal and not the greatest achievement and final goal lol. And MC shouldn't be the only one with it, just normal cultivation world practise where stronger enjoys benefits of strength and not MC being only Hevenly Daos' "good/bad boy".
    - for the sake of gods - NOT DENSE MC. One of the worst things for me is "geniuses" that can't even see bunch of girls trying to gain MC's attention but still falling not because of his principles or morals, but because he is just absolutely DENSE.
    - clever/genius antagonist (something that PoS greatly lacks, at least for now)
    - heroines can live on their own, have their goals and wishes, which they can themselves aim for, not wait until MC do all for them.
    - relatively good english (not MTL). English isn't my born language, but something like "The Protagonists Are Murdered by Me" where tale goes from first to third, and then back again, and one-sentence paragraphs - makes me sick.

    I would greatly appreciate if someone will help me with this. kef

      I also experienced the same thing. After reading this novel, it's a bit difficult to find another good read. And this has been going on for more than 2 weeks. I finally paid attention to the novel R-18.

        I started Lord of Mysteries. It doesn't have harem (I don't meet romance either, at least for now) but a LOT of good reviews. And to say truth - I'm reading it and for now it is pretty interesting.
        So I really advise you to give it a try, even if it might be a slightly new experience.

        ps: but I still would like if someone give some novels which match my criterias from the comment above )
        pps: also you can try Spirit Cultivation (completed, has harem of 9-10 waifus) and it's sequel Against the Heavens Will (which started to fall in quality, because in the last chapters MC started to poke his 'staff' in the nearly each 'hole', but it's bearable).

      Try World Apocalypes Online, I think all of your criteria fits in this one.

      Prime Originator world building is Super B and decent character development anyway it's entertaining. The downside is slow cultivation of mc

      Both of this is apocalyse so the harem is not focus because they are preoccupied on how to deal with it.

      Also try Devil Son-in-law as you mention the sex scene here is just being mention not detailed and the woman here is rruler of empire so you don't need to worry they are indefendent. But be warned not all woman here will enter he's harem at the end of the novel That will make you pity the girl

    I've read 38 chapters and my understanding of this is it's a bit stupid, I'd give it 3 stars out of 5. I am pretty disappointed I was expecting better, it is very interesting and I was enjoying the strength system but there are so many actions and things that feel out of place in this Novel, just don't expect too much from it I suppose.

      its gets better
      at least until the self insert trope takes over and mc starts to devolve into the usual xianxia protag but that happens much later so id recommend reading a few more chapters to see if youll like it
