A Sky God’s Spiritual Foundation. It was the greatest natural treasure in all of existence, but the sacrifices one must make to gain the approval of such an entity was unimaginable.

Ryu is a genius amongst geniuses.

He was born with the four Grand Ancestral Bloodlines. The Lightning Qilin. The Fire Dragon. The Ice Phoenix. The Fire Phoenix…

He was blessed with an Ancestral Grade Bone Structure and Ancestral Grade Meridians. The Ice Jade Crystal Bones. The Chaotic Silk Meridians…

He was bestowed the First Ranked Heavenly Pupils. The Mysteries of Heaven and Earth Pupils…

However, none of it mattered. Born with a False Spiritual Foundation, it seemed that all of his talent would go to waste. Unless…

Unless he was willing to grasp his Fate in his own hands. Collapse

    idk why ppl are rating this highly tbh. Ive read all of the chapters available and all I can say is that this is the same chinese shit you see literally everywhere disguised as a webnovel.

      Overall, I'd say it is a better executed, easier to read, and more fleshed out take on the genre staple.

    A solid 4/5 so far. Brilliant opening act that sets the perspective of our mc. Basically we have the most talented guy, with the strongest family, best resources, best bloodlines, etc, but it's all useless since he can't cultivate and so will die young. All the initial characters and plot with the faith, shrine, and cultivation mechanics that aren't delved deep(they sorta remind me of martial world in some ways though) into yet wet the readers appetite, but we can't get any of that yet, we go through this frankly inconsequential family arc, tournament arc, and revenge arc that take away from readers interest. If I didn't believe the story was going to get much better I'd give it a 2.6/5 for it's few good things during that time, mainly the MC though he does act like a dumbass with his choices that border on hypocrisy sometimes but I like an intelligent mc that isn't depicted as a cold blooded sociopath. Still, if I don't get the shy waifu death guard I'll probably drop this!!

      Brilliant opening act? This plot is used in most novels. Its overused and stale. Authors can do better when their main job is to imagine things.

        I might be slightly retarded. But I stand by it, I like that even though he was unable to cultivate he wasn't stereotypically thrown out by his family and that became his motivation. This isn't something expected from a cultivation world, when most you read don't really have those strong family bonds. Also it was interesting to see the mc, who we have seen at the literal top of the world and just married his pretty interesting, (though that's about it so far) wife, just kill himself, we do understand it's for that sky god whatever but that wasn't even a guarantee, and he just got a artifact that can give him gentle energy so that he could live longer, though it doesn't state how much longer. This opening act also introduces a lot of stuff that isn't explained but once it's further into the story just their mention back at the beginning is enough for it's worth, since the author isn't going to be imagining things out of their ass. Sure there are things I can see it's taken inspiration from but it's a bit pessimistic to say it's overused and stale.

          I'm guessing you haven't read Supreme Emperor... or like a dozen other similar stories. If the synopsis of your novel starts with 'the MC is suuuuuper OP with a crapload of incredible gifted powers he did nothing to work for' then you've already lost me.

            I mean, yeah I haven't read those, but the difference here is immense, he can't even use those abilities. And even after he dies and reincarnates it's not like he does nothing to even he able to start getting stronger. Even once he starts his path it's still filled with him being on the verge of death.

              Lol, you can't argue on your point really. There are literally tons of Chinese novels out there and if an author actually wrote one of this genre, there are bound to be similarities. To find a unique one is really hard tbh, unless you've read through everything single one of this genre, there will always be people saying "You haven't read ____ right?". So give it up. XD

                  Lol. My point is, whether the author did copy or not, the idea is already used. It doesn't matter if he did copy the idea or came up with it himself. It would be seen as a copy since it already existed.

                  Imagine if you come from another world to Earth, you spent years inventing a phone in the mountains without investigating whether it existed or not. Then once you succeeded, you tell people you invented a new invention, the phone, and it's even one with land-line cable. Would people believe you? No, they would ridicule you instead.

                  Was the inventor wrong that he invented the phone? No, he actually did invented the phone from nothing.

                  Were the people who ridicule him wrong in saying that the phone already existed? No, it did actually exist.

                  Point is, I'm not saying you're wrong. Just, there's no point in arguing. We won't know who is really right here.

    - A good story, with many slaps in the face , a sagacious and and smart mc
    - So far the world is relatively developed, writing is also good , secondary characters relatively developed .
    - Author passes well a drama and emotion at the beginning of the book and the awakening was interesting, has a mythology, history and interesting treasures in the book and a unique cultivation system .
    - The only part I didn't like very much was the tournament arc that I thought was filling (if you skip you won't miss anything) and boring
    - Revenge a little disappointing. But it's worth reading and it's a good book, good reading.

        Remember the arrogant young masters raped/almost raped important FM lead/many unimportant side characters. Remember the father of the arrogant young master who was pissed because you killed his son. Remember the clan elder, the father's father, who wanted revenge for killing both his grandson and son, so he rallied the upper echelon of the said family clan to kill the MC only to help the MC in his breakthrough to the universeheavengodkingemperorgrotto-heaven realm. Remember the ancestor of the family who, instead of trying to make amends with the expert, attempted to threaten the MC, only to be in turn, wiped out off the face of the Earth. Then you must remember the sect backing the family. This is one of the most powerful sects on the qilingoldenwhitetigerblacktortoise continent. After wiping out the sect, you find out it was a subsidiary sect to an even bigger hegemon in the divinedragon continent. After having a huge powertrip and wiping out that hegemon, you find out that the lost ancestor who had been away for a trillion years suddenly came back for no reason at all, only to find out that his sect was recently wiped out. Time skip 10 years and the MC is peerless, goes over to the sect ancestor and kills him after a bitter battle, only to have him know that the sect ancestor's master was an eternal god of the universe. Then he wipes out half the universe in his battle before killing the person and now he is the strongest being to ever exist. He restores the universe and rules over it. Then you find out that it is only a primitive universe and there are more universes out there with more powerful beings. Then the cycle continues.

    Don't get put off by the Face Slapping tag. Read it. I read it on Webnovel, then dropped it at chapter 45, then I picked it up again after a couple of weeks and till yesterday I used fastpasses and coins to read the chapters, that is to say that the novel isn't trash.

    After he regains his memories (Somewhere between chapters 50 and 60) the novel transitions from okayish to a good novel and it has the potential to be an excellent one.

    That said, I'm sure many of you, same as myself, would find reading the chapters before the MC regains his balls and purpose a chore. If you have the patience to tide over those chapters then do so and give this novel a try. Chances are that you may like it.

    Besides, Awespec's other works are excellently written so I have hope for this one too.
