    after having read all the normal chapters, and most of the epilogue, I must say this is one of the most satisfying novels I have read on the platform so far. And the main reason for that is that it is well written. The story is well planned out and everything that happens in the story happens for a reason, and at the end it all comes together. The story is about a guy with a sign in system who becomes the only disciple of the 9th peak of the Kunlun  sect. The sign in system allows him to get high quality resources appropriate for his level if he signs in at a place with dao accumilation. Although his body is not very suited for cultivation his mindset is, and coupled with the sign in resources he cultivates faster than anyone else (and despite this he needs several 100 years to become an immortal). He keeps his true cultivation hidden from everyone and avoids conflict as much as possible but when he needs to fight he is very overpowered. Not all people will like the mc though, I think some would find him boring, but having said that just know that even the boring personality is part of the plot. But I found the boring, always cultivating, personality was not really a problem bc it was also part of a good solution to something that I find a bit strange with most xianxia novels, when you think a bit deeper about the sort of life an immortal cultivator has than a lot of things should happen on a far wider timescale than in most novels. A cultivator needs a lot of time to cultivate and the amount of times they go out can be measured in years, maybe even decades but most mc's rush towards the higher cultivation levels in a couple of years and rarely do they take a long cultivation break that lasts years. And the stupid thing is that even though the mc has a system there fewer moments that the mc had plot armor or that something illogical happened than with the mc's who always get into a fight wvery city they visit. Now this mc takes it a bit to the extreme with long cultivation sessions, but that cultivation takes time is not overlooked. And in the same line of thinking the relationship he builds up with the love interest, builds up over years. They meet after he has been in the sect for a couple of years, they get betrothed after 150 years, marries after 600 years, etc. It was very satisfying to see an author implement some of the things I thought about when I read other novels. The only minor negative is that the story could have had a bit more action if the mc was forced to participate a bit more in going outside the sect, that could have added a couple 100 chapters. But since the reasoning behind this choice is explained and is part of the plot I don't mind it at all (not sure if such an mc, even with a similar good reason, would work in other stories. I think the author and translator did a good job of keeping the story interesting but I can understand not everyone thinks the same)

    ok, im confused. cant remember the exact chapter but you mentioned that once the MC leaves the starter city that he would not be able to return. thats kool and normal. but heres what i dont understand. how can a gang/guild whatever control the entire town and have high level afvanced items when such items shouldnt be avaliable in the stsrter town. an item that basically bans you from the game shouldnt exist.
