It actually has a manhua and I think this would be a good start before tasting the real deal http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/master_of_gu/
He was rlly impressive and so smart too! Everything is unpredictable. Even his enemies were clever and calculating, although his progress of weak to strong is slightly slow, I can guarantee you because of that you will enjoy his thrilling schemes, plans and especially his motivations to eternal life. Ehe excuse my long statement I'm just so hyped(￣∇￣")
DO Read the novel. It's good. It has some ups and downs but its a-okay. But my number one is still Solo Leveling ╮(￣▽￣)╭
