If I remember it correctly I’m looking for a novel where MC starts as strong like a sect elder not the sect master and he always kills his enemy with one slash. He didn’t want to take risks so he always comes out when he’s absolutely sure he can kill his enemy with one slash
It might be Top Tier Providence, Secretly Cultivate For A Thousand Years. He doesn't start strong nor is a sect elder, but he becomes strong fairly quick. After he became strong and saved his sect from its first crisis, he became a sect elder. He hates taking risks and loves to cultivate in seclusion. After a couple of fights, he decided that he would only fight if he can kill his enemy instantly.
The this might be it, I will read it. Thanks! I don’t know about this one but I like the synopsis so I will read it.
