/lit/ - Literature

Pleasantly surprised by this LitRPG. It has some elements of Xianxia/Wuxia - with cultivation, sects and grading things by low, mid, high, etc. But it is fundamentally a LitRPG novel and not Xianxia.

The absolute best thing about this series though is the MC is not a FUCKING smart alec. I can't count how many, otherwise good, LitRPG series I had to drop because the wise-cracking MC just became too much. There's hardly any pop-culture references either. So, no MC constantly reminiscing about bacon or some other reddit-tier meme. There's minor video game mechanics mentioned, but that's about it.

Make no mistake: this is lowbrow LitRPG fiction. Don't expect to read a literary masterpiece. The author is constantly using "Luckily," and "Suddenly,". Sometimes both in one sentence. The MC also has "danger sense", and is constantly lucking into treasures. This is explained by him having a high luck attribute.

Lastly, the MC is mostly dickless. Even up to the 3rd book he hasn't banged yet. He doesn't even try to start a harem. He is strictly about getting more power.

All the faults are worth it to me though because the MC is actually bearable. The most he will do is roll his eyes whenever someone annoys him. Too too many good LitRPG series were abandoned because the MC would not stop try to be a fucking comedian.
