Description

"To cultivate is to become one with the world, achieving a higher plane of existence."

What the hell? No, it isn't.

"Through diligent meditation and introspective enlightenment, one will be able to bridge the gap between himself and the center of the universe, achieving Immortality."

Where did you get this crap? Such nonsense!

Come, come, disciple. Follow your Snail-sensei here, and I will show you the quickest path to Immortality! It isn't all meditation and enlightenment like you imagine. If you aren't willing to risk your life, what makes you think you can avoid death? But don't worry! You have the Supreme Me. Your success is guaranteed!

Now just put this dress on and let's go.

What? Why are you looking at me like that? Don't point that sword at me!!!IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE:I have removed many of the earlier chapters due to an upcoming official publication through other channels. I have left the more recent chapters and will update in the future so that my current readers who have been with me since the beginning will get to witness the end of the current arc. All of your support is the reason I have gone forward with publishing my story, and I thank all of my beloved readers. <3 For any newcomers, I am sorry to have wasted your time with this front page. If you're truly interested in reading my story, please stay tuned for official publication as it will also be in a much more intriguing layout and pacing than what I originally published. If you are too impatient, I suppose you can search for some sites that pirated my book for now? Better get to them before I do :P

    the premise has been done before, but the story has its own unique twists that break it away from classic cultivation stories, the humor is hilarious and the world well built, the Mc isn’t some bloodthirsty psycho but still has balls of steel,

    Even when he wears a dress!

    Well written, humorous, witty and beguiling as it draws you further into the story as a well meaning fellow surfs the edge of chaos to victory.
    All before realising he is falling off another precipice..

    It so good that I feel resposible to leave a Review
    Okay, I am not good with words so let me say this in short words.
    The story is good. While I have read many novels here in royalroadl this one is I think I want to leave a review most(note: my total reviews can only be counted in just one hand) well, not because I am lazy, not at all
    The characters were well written not that I am good at writing nor do i write (maybe someday) but each one of them is unique...yes, even the not-talking sword (I like 'her').
    Also, the most suprising part is the use of japanese adressing is not awkward at all, like it was so smooth (Sorry, for my lack of grammar to express how good it is)
    Also, maybe because of my taste, short chapters without at least too much info dump is good, better(?), Awsome..meh. The given info is like stack of foundation being laid symmetrically.
    And most of our MC had a clear goal.
    That's all and I will edit if I want to add more.
    Waiting for the new chapters and glad that you share to us your wonderful story.

    I have to say the story is extremely funny and the writing is impeccable. The main character's snail really adds to the story in a great way. I highly suggest reading this masterpiece.

    I haven't finished it yet, but feel compelled to comment from now. I love the detailed description of the characters and the settings. Masterfully written and easy to read and enjoy. It's very different from my usual reads and that makes it difficult for me to be interested in people's work, but this one has an appealing story I feel is worth discovering. I'm super excited to see what happens with Kenja.
    Great work.

    One of the most amusing comedies on the site. This is how you do cultivation comedy. You have some buffoon with a little luck and a lot of smarts come in and manipulate these great powerhouses into giving him what he wants, all while they trip over themselves and bump into each other in the chaos caused.
    Minimal to no grammar errors, and the writing feels great. Flowery when it needs to be, to convey the haughtiness up the cultivators, punchy when it needs to be, for contrast and humor, and witty all the time, with the clever banter.
    The characters are all interesting and fun. Most of them aren't all that deep, but they are interesting little bundles of cliches that serve the story well.
    The story is good too. It moves along at a decent pace, there's a good number of twists and turns and mini arcs and progression. the last several chapters have lost their way a bit, but in the most recent couple, the author found the thread again and is back to the blistering pace of chaos we know and love.
    One of my favorite stories on the site, and a treat whenever I see a new chapter. Keep it up!

    Your start off slow, but you had me hooked by the fourth chapter. I've gone back to reread chapters and noticed that you correct them regularly. You have an interesting writing style that tries to draw the situation perfectly, I am a little confused over who is the main character between Kenja and the snail, but I love them both regardless, so I give your character score a 5/5. Please continue writing this lovely story.

    This story is about a guy that is so blessed... that everybody think he is cursed.
    happily he finds help with the strongest... snail (? ! ?)
    and everything after that is comedy gold, with our nice and hardworking MC trying to balance the OPness of an egocentric Snail and his own unexpected path in cultivation.
    The MC is likeable, and along with 2 accomplices, well defined.
    The World is starting to expand and plots within plots are glimpsed.
    nice story-telling and slow moving action makes for a nice read... as long as the author keeps the chapters flowing.

    Warning. Crossdressing imminent.
    Solid stuff notwithstanding. Especially the humour.

    I read 15 chapters and am just bored by this story. Maybe it picks up later but that's almost half of the chapters currently written with nothing to keep me interested.
    My main problem is that the characters are uninteresting. The main character is the standard bland and genetic protagonist you see in so many stories. "He wants to be a cultivator but has failed the entrance test 17 times. Look at what an underdog he is! But surprisingly, he's not actually useless, he's actually 1000x stronger than everyone else!!" This has been done many times and it's not interesting to see again.
    Oh yeah, he's now going to pretend to be a woman because of reasons? Let me guess, he'll end up becoming friends with the princess and they'll get into harem anime antics because she thinks he's a woman.
    As for the titular snail? It just comes across as a plot device for the main character to get stronger than everyone else. Maybe it will end up actually having character later on but I'm not willing to stick around to find out.
