The Sect Leader System

Description

LitRPG kingdom builder. Cultivation world. After meeting Truck-kun, Benton, a grandfather and an overall nice man, is transmigrated into the body of Chao Su in a brutal, might-makes-right cultivation world. Things could be worse. He is given choices that come with neat advantages, and his career in middle management gives him ample experience leading people. Those skills should translate to running a sect. Unfortunately, things aren't that simple. Benton quickly realizes that his plan to let his recruits fight for him won't work. He'll need to get up to speed on life in a cultivation world fast because danger is on the way. A beast tide threatens his new territory. Rival sects don't like the balance of power being upset. Worse, the demonic cultivators that destroyed Chao Su's prior sect are still out there. A/N - Apologies, but I do not do shoutout swaps. What to Expect: - This is not a cultivation story. The MC cannot cultivate and advances through cultivation realms by earning points from the System. - No artificial emphasis. - The MC makes decisions based on empathy and emotions, treating his sect members like he's their doting grandfather. He's not a typical Xianxia protagonist. - The story isn't exactly cozy, but it's on the lower end as far as tension goes. If a rating of 1 is no tension at all and 10 is drop the protagonist from the frying pan into the fire, rinse, repeat, the readers agree that this story is about a 4. - No sexual content or a harem. - M-W-F-Sa-Su with occasional bonus chapters - Average Chapter Length = Approximately 2,000 Words - MC goes from weak to strong to OP. - Though the story is not a comedy, the tone is mostly light, and it contains humorous elements. - There is some romance between side characters. There are no current plans for the MC to have a love interest. Just to be clear (and I'm only mentioning this because it's the internet and ... people), there is absolutely no possibility that the sixty-year-old isekai'd protagonist will develop a romantic relationship with any of his teenage disciples. He views them as his grandkids. - Minor swearing occasionally.

This story is pretty cool, instead of the usual heaven defying protagonist that fills xianxia, this story takes a novel perspective to develop said protagonists. Style and pacing is good, well developed interactions as well. Grammar has slight errors though author does check comments for edits. Good work, and keep pumping those chapters author.

This work is truly excellent. I’ve just started reading it, and I really like it—it is genuinely very good. I enjoy stories of this genre, which is why I’m currently writing one of my own in the same vein—though with a few twists—titled *La Secta del Heredero Perdido* (The Sect of the Lost Heir). I hope you’ll be able to read it and let me know what you think.

Progression fantasy cultivation novel with an MC who works to help others, ticks all the boxes for me. MC has a kind heart and starts off strong enough to help others, while still requiring him and all his new recruits to work together to grow. Thoroughly enjoying this, and it's definitely worth a read if that's your thing!

I'm very much enjoying this story. It's very refreshing to have a MC with a heart. Even if it's not the right min/max choice. What is the use of a second fantastic life if you don't do things you truly want? Watching the cast of characters grow, as the sect dose is a joy.

Really like the story. It has a nice flow and pacing. Further more there are not to many side characters to the point of losing who everyone is. Also the development of characters is nicely done.

This story wonderfully executes a concept that it very difficult to get right: a sect leader that powers up with the expansion of their sect. The characters feel real, there is a perfect amount of tension and suspense in the story that pushes our characters to keep on improving, the tone is light where it needs to be and serious where it needs to be, and there are no as*-pulls.I have been thoroughly enjoying the story and have only paused to write this review. If you're into Xianxia, LitRPG and/or systems, this is the story for you.

Good story, can't wait for it's return! Hopefully the author has recovered with the current hiatus. It is one of the few cultivation stories I've read where the mc doesn't end up as crazy as the rest of the cultivation world around them haha, which has been a pleasant read.

Awesome story! I can't wait for that next chapter. I really need to know what happens next!
Character growth and build is wonderful. I love the unique system build and arc.
Where will he get more sect members? Will there be a farm-garden addition to the sect? Will the city be annexed onto the sect? Will they build up the mountain? Will the sect member have children? Will they be nature based qu like the villagers?
Thank you for writing such a wonderful story.

This is one of the best cultivation novel I have read in this site. The author doing multiple edits to already posted chapters to make them more pleasent to read, shows me that, he truly passionate about this novel and cares about his readers a lot. Do yourselves a favor and read this xianxia novel, even if it seems like having a slower pace than mainstream xianxia novels.
Thank you author for sharing this story with us.
