not the best in the series but still enjoyable. (small spoiler?) this is the one where the hero goes off to train so he learns the forbidden/hidden secrets that no one else knows and becomes ‘god like’ to all the squishy ‘lessers’. every cultivating series has this so it’s not that big of a deal. I just start zoning out when the long discussions of how the advanced mana use works and why lessers can’t do such and such and are stuck at the lowly white cores…. ad nauseum… However, TurtleMe does a good job with the teachers/mentors and doesn’t spend too much time on theory. I am looking forward to the next in the series for sure
