À propos de cet audio
Cultivation. Magic. Empowering unwitting animals!
A thousand-year-old cultivator, Drew, is about to ascend to a higher existence. As he begins the process, he finds out he has pissed off one too many demigods. Though he manages to fight off the concerted effort of sect elders and patriarchs...he is slapped away from the higher realms by something.
After an instant or an eternity, he awakens on a lower realm! The air is filled with garbage energy, and his emotions of all things are allowing him to control it. For a cultivator that has spent his existence absolutely controlling his thoughts...that won’t do at all. To regain his place in the cosmos, he will need to create the energy his is familiar with once more...even if it might poison the entire world.
Then again...he could just take it easy and leave all the hard work to his "willing" apprentices.

Andries story has a good pace and lots of fun humor to it.
The price was right, the story even better.

The MC's background is already interesting but the way the Swords and Magic world is structured is different than the cookie cutter worlds with its own very unique problems.
I'm not a huge fan of the MC as he acts rude, manipulative, and like a general ass. This isn't a demerit though as it makes sense considering his history and circumstances as well as the fact that we later see that his morals are good despite his less than saintly personality. (Side note: I remember seeing someone mention him using the R-word a ton before I bought the book but I only heard three instances. Not a dealbreaker for me but I still didn't like it since that was just lazy writing and could've been easily substituted with "idiot" or the like making it much less jarring to hear that word out of nowhere)
Although, none of the above is why I gave this book 4 stars and called it junk food. Yes, this story is interesting and I enjoyed it even if I didn't like all of it. The reason this is junk food is because the plot is just following a thousand year old MC's pov as he does whatever he wants towards... some goal? He even glosses over significant world events at times and only shows the aftermath(still interesting but feels lacking like hearing of a kick-ass party but not actually being there). The story seems to be focused on displaying the unique world and it's magic system(s) and how the MC games them to basically unlock creative mode. The little character development in the story can be found in the disciples but sadly their sections are sparse and short. BUT the layout of this first book suggests that some interesting stuff will happen to the world, the MC, and the disciples in the next book.
Overall, this book lacks character substance but is chalkfull of fun magic/chi spells/techniques, unique scenarios, and world building that makes up for it. A story I'd only recommend to those who are interested in world events rather than personal struggles; though there may be more of that in the next book.
Like Junk Food

Also, did the MC accidentally create Yggdrasil? I can't wait to find out if my theory is correct or if they even bother to get around to properly giving a name to Tree.
Underrated

I liked the story the author was conveying; it was kind of clever, but I did get annoyed by some of their choices with writing style. I will probably listen to the second book in this series to find out what happens to the characters. I hope I’m less annoyed by the authors writing style.
I liked the story that was woven
