Warlock of the Magus World

This novel is actually well written and although some of the plots are a little cliche I enjoyed the journey of our MC.
In the beggening it a little childish , but get better and better with each chapter .
I also enjoyed the realism . Even with the chip , our MC is not all of the sudden OP , he still needs to accumulate knowledge , experience setbacks and grow .
Although our MC is a little evil and is an EGOIST , that also the selling part of the story , he is not a knight filled with rightousness face slapping brain dead oppenens , but a cunning man striving for his goalq will navigating bettween allies and opponents that are smart and dangerous.
This was an enjoyable read for me and I do reccomend , it for those who like to see stable progress of skill and caracter

Leave aside the nonsensical plot armor of the "AI Chip". It does not require a 25 year old with a working frontal lobe to detect the plot holes in this novel. I have sacrificed a lot of time just to see where the story would go. Sadly, it didn't go anywhere. I guess the author just got tired of thinking up of ideas and decide to make the story repetitive and boring. (MC enters a new world, save a citizen in danger, citizen owes MC a favor then proceeds to level up yada yada yada)Almost every fight is abstract and predictable which is the biggest crime this novel has to offer. It's a Xianxia novel for gods sake, how do you screw up the one thing you're supposed to be good at. Battles usually goes: Enemy supposedly is stronger than the MC, than MC suprises them with secret move or some other bullshit up his sleeves, then enemy is surprised why MC is so strong. The characters are extremely shallow, they don't possess any motives, or goals. they're just there to be there which makes the story extremely linear and 1 dimensional. To note, some of the characters don't even have a purpose in the story other than to serve as the MC's personal sex toy. The dialogues are completely trash, reading it gives me brain aneurysm. In one scene, the MC is asked a question, "are you a degenerate?" and to quote verbatim, "Have I turned into a degenerate? Would you like to find out?" Leylin closed in with a naughty smile on his face and ruthlessly sniffed her fair neck...... I think the whole world collectively face palmed and felt second hand embarassment from reading this alone. It feels like this novel is written by a 14 year old edgy for 14 year old edgy kids. The story is never coherent. The only redeeming quality of this story is the vast and interesting world building; Magus World, Purgatory World, Subterranean World, World of Gods etc. Sadly, wasted on an incoherent and boring story.

PS, if you're wondering if this novel is similar to Reverend Insanity, this is the shittier version of it. AI Chip is basically just Wisdom Gu, and the MC is much more of a wuss and less entertaining than Fang Yuan.
