From Cellar to Throne: Zen's Quest for Immortality #18
From Cellar to Throne: Zen's Quest for Immortality 18: Undergoing The Heavenly Tribulation
All the martial artists wanted was to earn a spot in history.
Some blended in the crowd, and some didn't. Some worked their way to the top and some became nothing but heaps of dust on the ground. Some were born into riches and jewels, and some were born with nothing but a strong mind and a great talent, like Zen Luo.
However, when he saw just how unfair the world was, he couldn't stay put and set out on a journey towards greatness, with only two goals in mind: To witness the world from the very peak of martial arts and to provide a safe and happy future to the people he cared about.
Falling from nobility, Zen Luo became a humble slave and served as a human punchbag for his former cousins. Inadvertently, he found a way to refine himself into a weapon and a legend started because of that.
With a strong belief in never surrender, he strove for revenges and pursued big dreams. Warriors from various clans contended for hegemony and the world was stirred.
Relying on the body that was comparable to a powerful weapon, Zen beat his numerous enemies on his way to the immortality. Would he succeed eventually?

Why?
What was the author thinking? You can justify theft. You can justify murder. You can probably tolerate the hero being an a-hole. But you can never justify rape. Even when circumstances presented itself, the author could’ve just made it consensual. Or maybe the hero was compelled beyond his control to commit such act. But to willingly and consciously force himself unto another woman no matter how bitchy her attitude would be, that’s disgusting. I agree with the other reviewers, it felt somehow this book lost its way.

No itsnt acceptable
What the hell just happened? Heroes aren't rapists and the writer thinks his MC had a valid reason WTF... Zen is on this adventure to save his sister from a guy who wants to rape her then he goes and does it to some else's sister, daughter, friend... Etc
This shit needs to be re-done

Another girl shows up with a purple power body. Zen rescues from her home and Eddie. Now he has a complicated love life. I liked it even though it was cringey in some spots.

Getting more boring
It’s getting really boring. I just scanned through tons and tons of pages glossing over the filler between meaningful plot progression.

This was kinda dark.
This installment seemed to mostly be dealing with how Zen will learn to work with the different women in his life.
