The novel follows the growth of Huang Xiaolong (HXL), who is originally thought to have no talent, but actually has talent so high that it's just unrecognizable for a large part of the story (as of yet, no one has identified the grade of martial spirit of his blue dragon spirit). Not only does he have extremely high innate talent, but he also has memories of his life on Earth, and that includes the martial techniques he used to practice. If that wasn't enough for you, then you'll be happy to know that he very quickly finds the inheritance of someone who has been long gone, becomes his disciple, learns an overpowered cultivation method, and becomes the successor for the organization that his mysterious master used to rule over. In fact, throughout the story, the number of lucky chances our MC experiences would make the MCs of other novels wish they got even a tenth of them.

The story revolves around HXL hiding his power, then revealing it in spurts to deal with arrogant people, and repeating this over and over with new enemies and organizations. He advances his level incredibly fast and can fight enemies at much higher levels than him, causing the whole power level system to be meaningless. At first, he can fight people one or two levels higher than him, but then the gap between levels continues to lessen, despite it taking "years of cultivation" to advance for ordinary people. He advances so fast and has so many OP abilities that there's no tension in any of the fights anymore, it's just a matter of "how will HXL beat up these guys?" This imbalance causes the story to become boring and repetitive, with very few truly satisfying moments of face-slapping.

The universe is one of the decent points of the story. It's generic, as there are several dimensions like many other WNs, where once you reach a strong enough level, you rise to next dimension level. However, Martial Spirit World, along with various other places in the lowest dimension are visited and described (albeit not in very much detail). Still, considering the fact that I rate the overall story as below average, I guess you can consider the average/slightly above-average world a positive.

The side characters are basically irrelevant. Half of the characters introduced are enemies that either get beaten up and scurry off, get killed, or will come back later with more pointless enemies. HXL's immediate family becomes irrelevant and even a constant detriment later in the story, and basically contributes nothing to the plot. The people who support him and protect him while he grows are outclassed by his power very quickly, rendering them useless. The love interests are actually the worst part about the story: one of them basically disappears and gets brainwashed, yet he keeps trying to find and save her, despite not having much of a history with her. The other love interest so far came out of nowhere; she didn't care for HXL when they first met, then somehow he felt the need to save her, and she fell in love with him. The romance is completely illogical and is a terrible plot device to explain HXL's motives.

• MC is from Earth and is a genius martial artist who dies after 17 years (no explanation)
• MC is reborn in another world that has martial spirits and he retrains his martial arts which harness the world's qi to make some type of inner force. Which is different from this new worlds power.
• MC awakens a lvl 7 martial spirit and is tossed aside by grandfather because of the cousin with lvl 10 martial spirit.
• Cousin hates MC because the MC beat him up to rescue his little sister from being bullied by the cousin and other boys. (No details are given why they bullied her)
• Mc's uncle and the dad of the cousin does not give resources to MC because he has a grievance with MC for beating up his son. Uncle has the mindset of a child which is s*upid.
• Parents of MC let their son just train on his own even though he is seven and should not have any clue how to fight but whatever is Wuxi logic.
• MC reaches the First Order in his martial training only after a few hours of cultivation (wow) then went on to reach the second order after 3 days. This would take a grade ten martial spirit at least a year to achieve but MC is broken and does it in 3 days. Really why do the begging levels always have to be rushed through why can't you give us more story and have it be at least a bit realistic like he reaches the first level after 5 months which is amazing because a 10 level martial spirit would take a 1 year or something? But whatever its more cliche shit.
• MC than meets a spirit monkey while training his martial arts from Earth (btw I dont remember there being martial arts practitioners able to harness qi and sh*t here on Earth but what do I know? This makes me feel like is actually from another fantasy world but the author does not give much detail on anything so there is no way to know for sure.) Monkey leads him to a cave where there are some spirit fruit of the yang attribute he eats one gives two to the monkey and two to his parents later. Then he finds in the cave at the bottom of a lake a rare cultivation manual with spirit swords and some cold bed that he uses to get stronger like really what bull-sh*t luck is this (btw that line is used so much in this story but it is true.)
• Parents of MC find out that the cousin wants to break their son's arms at the yearly competition so dad goes to plead with his brother to stop the MC cousin from going too far. Uncle of MC is a child about it and does not care what happens to his nephew. (Look I really don't get this outlook from families I don't know how it is in China but if this is a common occurrence for families to hate each other than all I can say I feel sorry for them. Not one of my family members want to cause bodily harm to me so ya this is a weird cliche I find in a lot of Wuxi novels.)
• MC than beats up the cousin at the tournament because he is like at peak of the late level of the 3rd order while his cousin is only at the peak of the first order. Though during the fight the cousin breaks through to the second order but the MC just shows everyone that he is already at the second order too. (Which leads to another issue of this story MC keeps it a secret from everyone even is mom and dad that he has reached the 3rd order. This causes his parents to worry for no reason while also letting everyone else continue to think he less as talent as his cousin. Straight up s*upid and so far the author gives us no good reason why he should keep it a secret. He only mentions that he could cause danger for him but does not show why it could and honestly I don't see why it would cause him harm. His cousin is not in danger for having a 10level martial spirit which makes him a genius. But apparently, if he shows that he has like a superb level martial spirit bad guys from god knows where will show up and cause trouble. This is a s*upid cliche that is used a lot in other stories to cause drama and tension at the beginning of the story because the author sucks at writing and can't think of something cool to write.)
• MC is then not given the reward for winning the competition though it really was not a detailed competition in the first place. The cousin received the reward of bathing in some spirit spring for a month, while also planning his revenge for the MC at the next year's competition.
• Also, during the competition, another family showed up with the head of the mc's family to watch the fights before announcing the engagement of the granddaughter of the other family with the cousin of the MC. But because the MC looked cool beating up the cousin the girl is head over heels for him. This causes more issues between the cousin and mc's family. But mc's grandfather decides to hold off on announcing them as being engaged since he wants the girl to change her mind and choose his other grandson.
• MC than goes with his grandfather, uncle, cousin and his dad to this city near them for the birthday of2 grandfather of the little girl. MC was only invited because of the little girl demanding it, otherwise, he would not have been invited. (Btw the mc's grandfather has the mentality of a child too.)
• In the city, MC meets a hurt man who he ends up helping because of a tattoo he sees on the man's arm. The tattoo is of an asura devil or something which is linked to the martial arts manual that the MC found. The MC heals the man using his past martial arts knowledge to help fix the man's meridians which should be impossible but whatever. The man wakes up sees the asura ring the MC wears (forgot to mention this) the ring shows that the MC is the next sovereign of the Asura Gate which the man comes from. He pledges loyalty to this 7-year-old. The man is a peak level 10 order martial artist. Stronger than like everyone so far in the story.
• There are a few more points I can make but I feel I made my point in how s*upid this story is written but here is where I leave it at. This is when I decided to stop reading the MC just beat the cousin again he is level 5 whereas the cousin is like at peak mid-third order. MC breaks his arms and legs for hurting his sister and brother again. The father of the cousin gets angry and tries to hurt the MC but the man who MC saved (which is like his servant now) slaps the uncle away with one hand. The grandfather gets upset and tries to beat up the man but is beat instead (btw MC was in the line of attack from the grandfather and would of got hurt if not killed by the grandfather if the servant was not strong enough). Lastly, the MC decided to go out and adventure after the year ends (mind you he still in the body of an 8-year-old) Parents don't want him to but in the end they allow it. Then grandfather apologizes to MC and says that this will always be his home and MC seems to accept the apology. Come on really who wants to read a story about an 8-year-old adventuring I could not take it anymore at this point and have dropped this book.

MC levels up like every other MC, but he always has a bodyguard from a higher realm no matter when. When he is Houtian, he gets a peak houtian guard. Later he gets a Xiantian guard. In Xiantian realm, he gets Saint realm guard. This goes on for every realm, although he does get an Emperor realm guard while still in God King realm, which is 2 realms below Emperor. Whenever MC reaches his guard's realm, the guard will then loses their screen time, often left behind in various places. MC does sometimes do things directly (rarely goes beyond 3-4 chapters), but fact is he has a stronger or more experienced guide by his side most of the time.

MC does gets heavily injured at times, when meeting enemy of higher realms and either his guards arent close by or of lower realm to the enemy. But he tends to recover basically in 1 chapter. There has been mentions in some chapters of how MC is undefeated, offically, under outsiders eyes he has never been defeated. He does get wreck every now and then, which he in turn wipes out the enemy when he obtains sufficient level of strength. MC has supreme luck, or in real world terms, MC Guard, where he gets what he wants and rarely suffers. Does shows his arrogance a LOT, even when facing enemies of higher realms, when he has his guards by his side. Tho he do tend to run fast if he or his guards cant beat the enemy. His attitudes at times makes me think of him as the villain instead of the main character.

Author also tend to be influenced a lot by comments he received. When people complaints MC is too weak, he gives MC multiple upgrades. When people complaints MC is too strong, he gives us tons of lame chapters. When people complains about MC being bullied, he made MC bully-kill in return. When people complaints of MC lacking harem, he gave us tons of harem. When people complains about MC bodyguard, he kicks them out and let MC go solo.

Oh yeah, MC gets harem in this novel. At the moment reading this novel, MC currently only married one. I dont exactly enjoy the way the harem members are included and introduced, especially the way they randomly fall for the MC. Author tried to explain this, but I call bull. Gold Horned Azure Bull. I say Li Lu is the only one I can believe, since she was already engaged to MC in the early chapters. Mortal had the best way in introducing its MC harem, albeit he never has true harem life (he soar too fast).

There is also a small similarity to Martial God Space, where it has been hinted multiple times that normal Earth is somewhere in the world. And the unexplained reason for how and why MC transferred to another world. MGS MC randomly pops in to the body of some dude named Ye Xiwen (his original surname was Zhang) one day without any explanation, this was never explained up till the end. While Invincible MC becomes a newborn baby, without explanation of the reason. Usually someone would first die in their previous world before transmigrating into a newborn, or at least gets summoned or fall into a random hole/pit before appearing in another world.

MC WILL go out as a child to find a secret cultivation manual. MC HAS a martial spirit that his grampa, in their tiny clan, misidentifies. And, absolutely, he WILL find people who'll offend him that won't live to regret it.

I do feel bad for the first love, Li Lu, the author really gave her a hard time. First making her basically get kidnapped, next brainwashed and then forgotten for quite awhile. I thought she was quite a cute character and the fact that MC brought her up sometimes was OK though I would have preferred more interaction. Not another Stellar Transformations where the girl is forgotten for over 2000 chapters.

Its really funny when the author keeps saying MC never goes looking for trouble when really the MC is the one doing about 80% of the provoking thanks to his attitude lol.
