I swear, impeccable writing style, intriguing plot, smooth flow, tasty premise.
World building needs to be rub a bit more. ASIDE FROM THAT, very recommended to read.

I have caught up with his novel. So far there isn't many chapters, but what is here is a great foundation to build upon. It's definately a unique premise without being gimicky. Author seems to know what they are doing and their prose flows like water, adding to the reading experiance rather than taking retracting from it like most other novels here. No shade. I will be waiting for more chapters and might update my review to contain more detail later.
Overall conculusion: Recommended

Now, don't let the star-rating fool you, I actually like this story. The main character is properly evil, does some depraved acts, although nothing too bad just yet. The harem members and side characters feel like they're own people most of the time, although we don't see a lot from they're perspective.
Now, for a few cons;
1. There are a few grammatical mistakes here and there, nothing egregious, but still there.
2. Although I can quite enjoy some smut, I don't need to have every 3rd chapter or so be smut with the wives as this does little to progress the story.
3. Last, but not least, the story progression is very slow. It's almost 300 chapters in now, and I feel like barely anything has happened. This ties a little bit back to my previous point, I don't need too many chapters of s*x with the main cast any more, I already have a good enough view of it, and it bogs down the story.
4. Although the author does state the power system in this world I bad or all over the place, I would've liked a bit more structure to it, as it is now, I don't really know if someone I strong, weak a lot stronger than the MC or not and so on.
Overall I would recommend it, at least to try and see if it is for you. I enjoyed it mostly, the smut scenes are mostly decent, some are good, even a few great ones. Not a lot of action so far, but the world is interesting at least. And I like that the MC is more or less a psycho, and more or less does what he wants. Would love more from the system as well, as that is sort of the a main draw as well, as it is in the title, but it's OK so far. Would've given it 4 stars if it wasn't so slow.

Cozy heartwarming read that feels like a trip to your countryside home. (Though some may disagree that's only because there not cultured enough.)

Concept is interesting, essentially a cultivation novel with an evil protagonist. So not that original but it does the job better than most while also having femboy harem members (only 1 as of right now) lol, that's pretty rare.
Only real issues is grammar, could be better but isn't beyond terrible either. Also please don't make the mistake of dragging the cultivation/training arcs too long as it tends to ruin the flow/pace of the story, especially if there's supposed to be multiple tiers to climb/cultivate through.

I Binged this all from start to current over the course of about a week, and if there were 500 more chapters I would have just kept going.
I gave this story a perfect score on the strength of its adherence to and execution of a vision. I don't mean it is perfect in the sense that it is error free or perfect by every technical metric, but It sets out to be Depraved Cultivation, and it spends its time exploring depravity on as many axes as it can-- while also creating a genuinely interesting genre story. It is restrained and disciplined in the areas that usually have me rolling my eyes at stories like this.... insofar as there really are any stories like this.
The MC is a despicable horrible monster who visits truly wrenched acts of manipulation, humiliation, violence, torment and abuse on humanoids and animals alike, and I suspect plants aren't safe from him for any other reason than that he hasn't run across one that had the capacity to beg. All of that is true, and still I find him charming, would never want to meet him, but he has genuine charm. That's a very rare and impressive writing feat in my experience.
The Li's--or victims I suppose-- are far more fleshed out than I've come to expect from the niche. That sounds like faint praise, but again the vision and discipline to actually execute on that rendering is something I've rarely seen in this neck of the woods.
The story and worldbuilding overall is competent, that isn't to say that it doesn't have its own unique twists and wrinkles, but it is a cultivation story and more or less paints within the lines in that regard. However given how well and fully it stretches its legs in the areas of depravity it feels like complaining that the paintjob on a nuclear warhead doesn't innovate on the olive drab theme.
Anyway, whatever it says about me, I love it.

I really enjoyed this book. The story is interesting and easy to follow. The protagonist remains consistent throughout his development, although the narrative sometimes shifts from a dark atmosphere to one that focuses more on dark erotic themes. I would have liked the author to return more often to the protagonist’s true nature and original goals.
However, even though BL (Boys' Love) is an integral part of the story and its setting, I felt that it sometimes took up too much space and overshadowed certain aspects of the plot. There are many ways to portray a character who goes against social norms, and I would have preferred the focus to remain more on the story itself.
I understand that this element reflects both the protagonist’s personality and the author’s creative choices, but it is not something I usually look for in my reading.
In my opinion, the book should be clearly labeled and categorized as a Boys' Love novel so that readers know what to expect before starting it.
