Question If you were transported into a cultivation world without a main character, whose disciple would you want to be?

u/toastsocks No rent paying inner demons Feb 24 '25
Jade beauty, I’m also a girl so the main character/young master wouldn’t kill me out of jealousy and I would still be able to benefit from the resources that the young master/main character give to her

u/Amanda_Is_My_Name Feb 25 '25
Same. Also, if you choose the others one may fall for you and if you don't like them back it can lead to bad situations. On the other hand, for the jade beauty you likely can avoid a lot of flirting because people will be more focused on your master than yourself (unless you are a jade beauty to)

u/Belfura Spear God Feb 25 '25
Plot twist, the young master and the main character want both you and your master

u/Firemorfox Dude! I'm literally just a Librarian, PISS OFF! Feb 25 '25
Eh. Just play hard to get to both, then they'll fight each other instead of screwing you (over). And it's a free ascension ticket to follow the winner and get free cultivation resources when they ascend.
This happens far too often.

u/Jonesking4 Feb 25 '25
Until one comes back for revenge.

u/Firemorfox Dude! I'm literally just a Librarian, PISS OFF! Feb 25 '25
Again, they go after the other dude for revenge, it'll be fiiiiiiiine (until you get kidnapped)!

u/ConsequenceGlass3113 Feb 25 '25
Just don't become a forgettable jade beauty who is left behind lol.

u/WhatADraggggggg Feb 25 '25
This is probably the optimal decision for any woman to make. Not sure what decision is best for men, perhaps Buddhist.

Demonic sect master. With his backing you can kill the young master, take the jade beauty and corrupt the Buddhist to the demonic path
125
u/-Weltenwandler- Feb 24 '25
Yeah but your master will possibly kill you and overtake your body. Or the scripture you learned is just an experiment and you accidentally selfdelet casting a spell, or get possessed or whatever
69
u/Barnabas-Tharmr 1 in a Ten-duotrigintillion Genius Feb 24 '25
Yeah but I'll know that ahead of time and scheme against him and finally kill him in a confrontation and he'll respect me for it and pass the sect to me with his dying breath. He's cool like that

u/-Weltenwandler- Feb 24 '25
You forgot there is no mc :p

u/Firemorfox Dude! I'm literally just a Librarian, PISS OFF! Feb 25 '25
Indeed. That arrogant junior does not realize they are not heavenly fated. The simple lack of a System is evidence enough they are unlikely to defeat their demonic sect master.

u/Dragaok Sect Librarian 📚 Feb 25 '25
The younglings of this generation all seem so untalented, relying on their System to progress. Myriad paths lead to the top, however in an equal battle, those who have always relied on external factors will lose to those who put in their own efforts and training.
Be in control of your own fate. The Heavens is indifferent, while you remain a puppet to the System’s will.

He is a DEMONIC sect master
If you are talented he is more likely to try to possess your body or use you as refinament material

He is a demonic SECT MASTER.
If you kill and possess every talents you find, how can your sect prosper?
2
u/South-Speaker3384 Feb 25 '25
Not every talent
Just the best one
3
u/Sogelink Feb 25 '25
Well, just don't be the best duh.
Like if you feel cultivation is easy, either find a way to hide your cultivation or never surpass the genius of the sect.
Would be funny to see a story about a genius MC that doesn't want to be turned into a pill but his senior brother is too slow so he helps him get stronger so in case of danger, he will be the focus of the enemy.

u/Danijay2 Feb 25 '25
Non of them. I'm doing my own thing.
Since if there is no Main Character. Then i will become the Main Character.

u/ChompyRiley 9 trillion km tall Mountain Feb 25 '25
Young Master. I help him get the jade beauty, and then we team up with the buddhist to defeat the demonic sect master with the power of friendship.

u/Substantial-Stardust Feb 25 '25
This young master in particular is not into jade beauties, such unfortunate choice by OP... He is into Demonic Sect masters

Demonic sect jade beauty master. You know what I mean 😏

She’ll turn you into an eunuch or have you mate with people in order to harvest things

u/Wondering-Way-9003 Feb 25 '25
Jade beauty master sounds solid, cause I can feel the yound master ditching me after offending someone and I die, where as Jade beauty master are often good teachers, especially the Cold Kuudere type. And I can live with that.
The second some dick try to be smug about dating my master I'm throwing hands with them.
Like motherfucker do I look like my master, what she does is her business not mine. Fuck outta face. Interrupting my golden core break through with your bitch trifles

u/ExtensionInformal911 Feb 25 '25 edited Feb 25 '25
Buddhist is best of those options, but I would prefer random elder #7 or the Alchemist. Learn to cultivate, but not get caught up in sect politics with self absorbed assholes.
Detailed breakdown:
Jade beauty: I don't want to spend my life simping for a woman out of my league.
Young master: I would have access to decent cultivation resources and money, but I don't want to take orders from a spoiled rich brat. Second best
Buddhist: a bit pretentious and any time I do something for myself I'll get a lecture, but safe and good techniques. Best choice.
Demon sect leader: worst choice. Constant battle, have to defend my position from all the other sect members despite being the worst at cultivation, and when I succeed I'll just find out that he was teaching me so he can turn me into a pill that moves him .01% closer to his breakthrough.

Now imagine the jade beauty have the personnality of a really nice and caring grandma or a cool wine aunt.
It could be cool. And it's your master. Only shameless fools would consider an unproper relationship between a master and a disciple.

u/Kaul_Deepsea Feb 24 '25
Jade beauty. I would just wait for the Demonic sect master and the young master to kiss my ass trying to get on her good side.

The jade beauty only really works if you’re a woman or if she’s somewhat experienced, although at the point she’d be the peerless beauty teacher trope. Also it’s a huge problem if she somehow falls in love with you, that’s a flag.
Young Master is a gamble because more often than not he’ll treat you like a lackey. Also rip to you if you have any kind of talent. You’re also very likely to pay the price for Young Master’s transgressions, either through mc or someone else. There are good YM but they are a minority.
Buddhist is the best choice because despite perverted Buddhists, hypocrite ones or even evil ones, you’re far more likely to be the disciple of one that cares about their disciples. Plus, Buddhists have factions, so you might get into a good one now or later. Giving up your hair, eating meat, drinking alcohol and relationships with women is a small price to pay for not dealing with these nut jobs.
Contrary to popular belief, the likelihood that the Demonic sect master is some kind of charismatic anti-villain is unlikely. It’s far more likely that it’s either some brute, a pervert, a murderer, a psychopath, an eccentric, a madman, a devil, a combination of everything mentioned, etc. You basically always have to be on guard. Another problematic aspect is that the environment would be the worst as you kind of have to hide your talent but also fall prey to bs if you’re perceived as weak

Buddhist. I will then proceed to refine the demonic sect master, the young master, and the jade beauty into pills. Glory to the bald uncles!

u/Problem-Heavy Feb 25 '25
What kind of demonic sect master? Are we assuming all options would actually support you without hidden intentions? Bhuddist tends to have body refining and demon slaying methods so it’s interesting but being celibate is a downside.
3
u/bhavy111 Feb 25 '25
young master obviously. they tend to have that "do you know who I am" trope and get manipulated easily. that's bascially an infinite money wallet.

u/ZenMyst Peerless Evildoer Feb 25 '25
Jade Beauty. I always like some female master and male disciple romance.
2
u/vennthepest Feb 24 '25
I know it's not technically an option, but I'd probably join a Daoist sect. Besides that either the jade beauty (assuming she's like the jade beauty sect leader or something) or the Buddhist sect

Young master if his backing is like that of the Changsheng Gu Family.

u/Suah_goat Recluse Genius of the Mysterious Valley Feb 25 '25
Master of the demonic sect. With the techniques of the Ancestral Demon I can corrupt the purity of Jade's beauty, kill the young master and make the Buddhist submit.

u/Aloneforrever Old Monster Feb 25 '25
I'd prefer the demonic path thank you...
The reason:because the demonic scripture's rule
"A Demonic Cultivator can do whatever they wish to do"...

u/AnalyticalBystander Feb 25 '25
I would prefer to find a hidden master or an ancestor spirit to guide me.

u/Sogelink Feb 25 '25
The most powerful.
If they're all at the same level, the guy (or girl) I'd have the most compatibility with in personality.

u/VastEntertainment471 Feb 25 '25
Being a disciple of a JB would prob get me killed by a jealous YM
Being a disciple of a YM will prob get me killed by his own arrogance
Being a disciple of a Buddhist will prob get me killed when their hypocrisy pisses off the wrong person
Being a disciple of a Demonic Sect master will prob get me killed for existing
At the end of the day I'm choosing sect master, it has the highest status and I'm likely to receive the best treatment since demonic sects are either your stereotypical demonic sect or they are just hella chill and are just hated by Orthodox sects for being different

u/trueselfdao Feb 26 '25
Jade beauty. But she's a fallen immortal stuck in some soulbound artifact succing on my soul and making my cultivation slower. We can deal with her family drama when I ascend through 5 different realms.

Probably Jade beauty but you can also strike it big if the Demonic path master is someone who has a strong sense of Dao.

u/Hapciuuu Feb 24 '25
Young master. But I'll probably betray him if he is stupid and arrogant.
Jade beauty is too sluty and will attract powerful cultivators who will try to kidnap her.
Demonic masters will sacrifice me at the first sight of trouble, so no thanks.
And I don't believe in Buddhism, I believe in the Ego.

u/vennthepest Feb 24 '25
Why would the jade beauty be slutty? If she's good enough to teach she's probably like some ice type sect master or something.

u/waowowwao Feb 25 '25
Why exactly is the jade beauty slutty? She’s just a woman? Won’t get far in your cultivation journey with your weird prejudices

u/MountOlympu Billion Year Old Loli Feb 25 '25
If she's strong enough to be your master, junior, she will not get kidnapped. How is she slutty, do tell?

u/Azurlium Sect library hidden master Feb 24 '25
Buddhist. Can easily go and become a Wrathful Sinful Buddha and not act like a hypocrite behind holy lights, basically being a cultivator but not being 100% screwed over either.
