Here's a review on the novel:
This cultivation novel is very fantastic, the story's about a cruel, cold, and clever evil mc, who's very talented in multiple directions. It has great character and story development. He starts of weak and pathetic, but he has the seed of potential as a great villain. With his grandfather being his only family, his heart grows cold and wicked, filled with desire for power. His character turning evil and cruel, described as cunning as a fox yet bold like a tiger. He would do anything for power, for himself as long as he can benefit from it, he would be as benevolent as a saint or as wicked as a devil, whichever path would benefit him more. And yes, if you've read reverend insanity, then this novel is heavily inspired from ri, following the same flow of events at the start ( very nostalgic ) but leads of to it's own path later. All I can say is that if you loved Reverend Insanity ( Master of Gu ) then you'll love this aswell. It leans more on the cruel side of a demonic cultivator, who's a hungry ghost for benefits that leads to power. It's very much gore. So for those like me who like evil MCs then Bai Ming would be above your expectations. He treats all cruelly, yet equally fair. A bonus with this novel is it also has no romance or harem (MC only). Overall, I love it a lot, deserves as much love as RI.
