Publisher's summary

The world has ended, and those worthy of it have received the chance for a new life in a new reality.

Zach grew in power and thrived in the post-Framework world. He became a respected leader, a shining example of what it meant to be good. But as the world ended, he had only one thought: to punish the monster that had killed the world long before the Framework ended it. Yet not even with his incredible power was he able to stand against the World Ender. His arrival in the new realty, the Infinite Realm, gives him the chance to grow stronger, to find the monster again - and make it pay.

Ryun survived the chaos after the arrival of the Framework by pushing harder than anyone else. He grew in power until he became the most powerful being that had ever walked the planet; but he is hated by the world, called a monster by all others, the World Ender. As the world ends and he steps into a new one, where people stronger than him have lived for centuries, he finds himself lost and without purpose. The only thing that had mattered to him had been lost to him long ago. He truly was the monster that people considered him to be, and he now finds himself wondering if this new reality has a place for someone like him - but he had never been one for lying down and dying without a fight. One world fell to his power, and another might follow.

Refreshing western take on cultivation

I had to write this review to give kudos on publishing a book longer than 8 hours. It was very entertaining and enjoyable from start to finish. The author did a great job of jumping back and forth from past to present without losing focus on story line. It was used to enhance the story and explained as the plot was expanded. I am tired of being trolled for credits by authors breaking up their story into “episodes” to bleed consumers dry. In fact I refuse to finish story lines despite already investing book after book. I removed one star however for the book coming to an abrupt end without completion. I will buy the next however because it really was 34 hours of entertainment.

Pure awesomeness

I was completely captivated from the beginning to the end of this book. It was highly entertaining and had several new concepts at least to me. This book was far more then your typical cultivation novel. Going to read the next volume on KU now..

Brilliant - truly!

I hardly ever write reviews. But this was worthy.

I cannot recommend this book more highly for a fan of LitRPG or especially if you are also a fan of epic fantasy. The main protagonist is layered and real.

Huge Congrats to the Author. What a great book.

Do not listen to the negative Nancy's. Get this!

Towards the end of the book when you get the rest of the past story there comes a point when the author was able to make me relate to level of rage of the MC and I completely understood why he tore the world to pieces.

I am excited for the next books to see how the MC heals. The two characters are good for him!

Incredible

I went into this book with mixed feelings, but ended up being thoroughly pleased in picking it up. The moving of point of views from the past to the present, while knowing to some degree how it all ends in the past, had me frustrated beyond belief even if it served the story well in the long run. The POV change happened at times where you are hooked into what is going on, and had to deal with the annoyance of putting that story point on hold while being happy to pick up the other one. The story is incredible, being familiar to the genre in concept, yet in truth was a unique take that had me loving every word and daydreaming about the possibilities of how it can advance in pathways. I cannot recommend this enough, perfect score.

Great story but part of it feels disappointing

Th story is supposed to be focused around 2 characters Zach and Ryun. But its honestly 90% Ryun while Zach seems like a secondary character to Ryun's story. Which makes it odd to me that they would put so much emphasis on zach jus to giv him a basic side story to Ryun's epic adventures. I hope Zach will have much more development in the next book or be phased out because right now he seems almost unnecessary to the overall story besides his past with Ryun.
