Tundra Fox, a cultivator of immense power and Sect Master of the Verdant Snow Sect, faces an eldritch god from beyond and dies. However, a time-artifact sends his soul back 10,000 years, when he was still in the earlier years of growing his Sect.
This story comes with cultivation, base building, and usual regressor awesomeness, paired with a heavier focus on healing relationships, family and family relations. Tundra Fox will try to prevent family deaths, conflicts, and hopefully, try to raise descendants that don't become arrogant young masters.
Warning 1: The story starts with Tundra Fox with 3 living wives at the start of the story.
Warning 2 : Time and years might move fast sometimes.
Warning 3: Despite the time skips, this is a slow story.
S tier novel. Lots of logical explanation and reasoning on how the characters act. And also the MC isn't like the common braindead xianxia characters that regressed and only thinks how to exploit everything they could. MC actually spends time to rebuild and make his his relationships with his family, friends and desciples better.

Very promising, there's character development already in the first couple of chapters. Grammar is perfect, and the storyline is shaping up to be a good one :)

This is an excellent read so far and has really hooked me in. Usually I find cultivation stories really bland and characters, especially antagonists, lacking depth. This story though is anything but that. The pursuit of power and action is demoted to the background, the main focus is the characters and their relationships and it is wonderfully done. No character is written shallowly as just good and evil, even the spoiled young masters have some depth to them and one can understand why they behave in a certain way and still come across as reasonable when the MC tries to reach out to and reason with them.

It is rare that an author can so convincingly portray character growth and its consequences across centuries. Common deathbed regrets are still a thing for even 10, 000 year old monsters, but how they manifest and what actions can be taken from lessons learned are affected by the realities of the cultivator world.
Very well fleshed out characters, world, logistics, and power structures. Everything has a depth to it that draws you in and makes you invested in the characters, root for them to be better versions of themselves. The MC due to his actions comes across as authentically heroic and inspirational.
Edit: Just realized that the author also is the writer of Tree of Aeons, no wonder the world building and cahracters are so top notch.

As a massive fan of Spaizzer's as-of-this-post still-ongoing work "Tree of Aeons", this seems like a breath of fresh air and different yet familar writing style.
While the initial synopsis looked like a generic power trip fantasy xian xia novel - which put me off, I am reminded of the excellent way Spaizzer handled Aeon's over-poweredness that kept me interested for years at this point.
Just like how an engaging read should be, the power levels, lit-novel aspects play a background role that establishes a context, with the focus being instead on interpersonal relationships, realistic dilemmas, a realistic take on the challenges of managing a sect and family.
Knowing Spaizzer, I can expect excellent world-building throughout the story as the chapters roll on.
Looking forward to seeing the growth of Spaizzer's second work.

This is the first cultivation novel that I have read which actually had positive character development. This novel actually explores raising children and family matters in a cultivation world and how to keep your family from developing trash and Second generation scum. I have enjoyed this novel more than any other cultivation novel I have ever read!
