Is a level 1 gate the highest gate a cultivator reaches before a breakthrough to the next rank, or is it level 10? For example, is a qi awakening 1st gate stronger than a qi awakening 2nd gate?

I was completely on board until the Layla stuff. Like for one this dude is falling in love with any girl that barely touches his dick, then oh look a McGuffin goddess out of nowhere that gives you magical McGuffin sword powers that will kill you so it closes out a chapter ANNNNNNNNNNND of course another time skip. I get he's been around Layla for months at this point but there isn't really any build. Then we have the ending where he somehow can't take down a couple of low levels while being in full on over powered berserker mode where he's definitely trying to kill them, but then another time skip just so narratively we can keep the harem girls more powerful than him while completely ignoring everyone else who is overpowered that saw him do that shit and just conveniently are ignoring even though his safety is the greatest priority. Vanny is literally connected to the dude and nothing. Oh and what breaks his bs? His feelings for the girl that physically abuses him every time she sees him.....every...single......time and magically just in time for him to die so that was useless. So many gaping plot holes by the end and what makes it worse is its not terribly written and you know the dev is gonna pull some other magical reason from his ass he's the only one who doesn't die from this.

1. We have to assume they spent the extra month time skipped together even if we didnt see it so Layla and Noah didnt come out of nowhere.
2. Noah was only using pure physical strength when he went berserk, thats why he couldn't beat them.
3. Dev has said 60 times CH4 will pick up literally moments after CH3.
4. His berserk mode is because he cant resist the negative emotions the souls throw at him so ofc his love for Yua will break it out off. And yea its a bit cliche but so what, you dont like it dont play it.
5. Not THAT many plot holes
6. There has already been in canon ways to revive people. Its not going to be out of his ass if he already set up in Chapter 2 and 3 ways to bring him back.

Just finished the update, man I thought it was fantastic. So much happened! Its really satisfying to read through such a lengthy and event filled update that really pushes the story forward.

Fantasy authors often write about the main protagonist home, village, base etc. being attacked and people the MC loves being put in peril to encourage growth and development from the mc so that was expected. The Layla incident was surprising but I thought it was executed well enough, there's a lot of possibilities for the future with that angle. Vannyr was probably my favorite character this chapter.

Its a good chapter with an apt title: Fall. The mc truly fell, his mind, body and soul. Now he will rebuilt, strengthen and move forward. I'm pretty sure there will be several time skips in this story, thinking about how cultivation and growth works in the lore, it requires a lot of time to cultivate even though the Mc has some secret powers, the rest of the cast needs to grow with him.

The action sequences were so elaborate! loved it. Just the entire setting, placement and set designs. Its a really unique game. Anyway really satisfied with the read through, looking forward to what the dev comes up with in the next chapter, reckon they might focus more on training and character interactions next but who knows! Awesome story. cheers.
