Murim & Cultivation

/c/murim-cultivation8 members

Sect politics, martial arts progression, and recommendations for when you've read all fifteen of them. Murim, xianxia, and everything adjacent.

Miroji is where anime, manga and manhwa readers talk about what they are actually reading.

Miroji rules · 10, site-wide

They apply in every community and cannot be changed or removed by a community.

  1. No sexual content involving minors

    Any sexual depiction or discussion of anyone under 18, real or fictional, drawn or written. Permanent ban, no appeal.

  2. No explicit content outside 18+ posts

    Adults can mark a post 18+ in the main feed; only adult accounts can create or see one. Communities cannot carry 18+ posts at all. Nothing explicit involving minors, or real people who have not consented. Marking a post 18+ does not exempt it from moderation.

  3. No harassment or targeted abuse

    Pile-ons, following someone between threads, or organising others against a person. Disliking something someone likes is not harassment; going after the person is.

  4. No hate speech or slurs

    Attacks on people for race, ethnicity, religion, caste, gender, sexuality, disability or nationality. Slurs count whether or not you meant them that way.

  5. No threats or encouraging self-harm

    Threatening violence, wishing harm, or telling someone to hurt themselves. Includes jokes that would read as a threat to the person receiving it.

  6. No piracy links

    No links to sites hosting manga, anime or manhwa without a licence. Talk about anything you like; do not post where to steal it.

  7. No doxxing or personal information

    Someone's real name, address, workplace, school, phone number or private accounts — theirs or anyone else's — without their consent.

  8. No spam, scams or bots

    Repeated posting, engagement farming, referral links, crypto or giveaway scams, and automated accounts.

  9. Tag your spoilers

    Mark anything that gives away a plot point in a work others are still reading or watching. Use the Spoiler tag; it exists for this.

  10. No impersonation

    Do not present yourself as another person, a creator, a publisher or Miroji staff. Parody is fine when it is obvious.

Murim & Cultivation rules

  1. Any murim or cultivation series belongs here

    Korean or Chinese.

  2. Spoiler-tag by chapter number

    Say the number, not "recent".

  3. Recommendation posts are encouraged

    Say what it's for fans of.

  4. No aggregator or piracy links

    Same as everywhere.

    genuine question, not bait: has anything in this genre actually stuck the landing? i've read maybe eight and every one of them either stops mid-arc or speedruns the last hundred chapters. i'd rather a short complete one than another eternal serial.

    Question
    murim readers: what's the ceiling on this genre for you? i've read maybe fifteen and they're starting to blur

    RecommendationLightning Degree
    for people who bounced off nano machine's early chapters: lightning degree. tighter, meaner, gets to the point about 30 chapters faster

    the sect names are the thing that gets me. every one of these has a Heavenly Demon and a Divine Sword and by book three i genuinely cannot remember which faction burned down whose mountain. the good ones give you four factions and make you care about all four. the rest give you thirty.

    Question
    cultivation novels and murim manhwa have opposite problems. the novels have twelve hundred chapters and no faces, the manhwa have gorgeous faces and skip the politics that made it worth reading. has anything actually done both well? asking sincerely, i've been let down four times.

    RecommendationNano Machine
    if you liked solo leveling's power curve but wish it had actual court politics, nano machine is right there. the fights are great but it's the petty sect scheming that keeps me up till 4am

    Return of the Mount Hua Sect
    mount hua sect is the funniest manhwa running and nobody talks about that part. everyone posts the fight panels and skips the fact that chung myung is a menace to every adult in the story
