Power scaling is important.

It is not the whole "turning into Superman or becoming a reality warper" that makes it a bore.

It is the lack of proper competition that makes the endeavor feel flat.

Like activating God Mode in a game, the niche dies real fast once you get what you need out of your system.

So I read another "hardworking MC getting his credit stolen by incompetent people" work recently.

I know the author makes these people extra incompetent just to showcase MC's hardwork and prowess, just like how the author would make everyone extra retarded to show how smart the retarded MC is.

... Can I have competent people? At least a joust of wits?

Dropped because stopped updating since April 19, 2026.

That and the work is going boring as time goes on. I can literally feel the author trying his or her best not to make the MC OP too fast with his OP cheat.

This led to plot dragging its feet.

I am rereading a work I dropped years ago.

Initially I did not notice, but then I did. And I couldn't care less because I have dementia.

Probably will drop at the last place I dropped it, probably not.

... There is this new trend in body cultivation.

In the past, it is always train from skin, flesh (muscle and sinew), bone, and blood. The typical outer to inner. And the ideology is that skin for increased Def and slight boost in Str. Flesh for Str and Stamina boost, and regen. Bone for the Bone Throne and Blood for the Blood God.

Always read and finish the entire document before trying to search other sources for information. A lesson that I have yet to internalize, as I found the answer elsewhere, felt smug and scrolled down only to see the answer in the next paragraph

Now I am trying to justify myself by saying that my previous experience had already shown that the answer wasn't there most of the time.

So I am reading this work because I am that bored.

The very first part is literally Doraemon but eldritch horror game.

And then there is the Daoist Gu gag. Damn bro and I initially thought it was about Sasuke and Itachi.

Alright, had to stop at C345 before I barf out my facial orifices

Long story short, MC has Kortopi's ability but a lot more powerful.

Dude can mass-clone EXP drugs and Intelligence increasing meds.

And the power system makes little sense. I was reading it for more ideas for my own and just can't continue.

I am needlessly whinging, but I do feel a sense of annoyance when reading upon cultivation novels that allows multiclassing but not giving disadvantages such as Total Level Up Limit etc.

Unsheathed and Nightwatcher had similar concepts but the former will force the high end cultivators to choose to mainline being a Deity or Immortal (think of it like Barbarian/ Fighter vs Wizard) at the very end

A fun trend in CN that I had been missing out.

So take Christianity as an example. The religion remained constant and afloat, albeit with many challenges, from Roman up till to date. It remains clean in a sense.

Then apparently the CN authors has the Dark Souls epiphany and create stories of undying empires, take the above example, Roman.

Rot occurs, both in the empire and in the religion. And yap yap yap.

Might be a fun thing to think about; the skills that have the same name and have similar effect but performs in different manner.

For example, all schools of D&D can cast Fire Ball, except Evocation shoots out one while Transmutation is Roy Mustanging it while Conjuration summons the fire from elsewhere.
