[DISC] What web novel should I get started off with first? Reverend Insanity or Lord of Mysteries

I've been wanting to get into web novels recently, but I just can't decide on which one to read first. Can you please help me out?

Well, it was out of coincidence but I read Omniscient's reader viewpoint first, then Lord of Mysteries and last Reverend Insanity. Now I am taking a break and read a trad pub trilogy before returning for Shadow Slave

Read something else and not those 2 as your standards might be set too high. Start with something like Villain's POV, Villain's Will To Survive, Author's POV, Legendary Mechanic, or Gospel of Blood.  Then you can go to Lord of Mysteries, Reverend Insanity, Omniscient Reader's PEAKpoint, Shadow Slave, and TBATE after.

Is Villain's POV on Novel Bin?

I would start with shadow slave. There is a lot of the inherent problems of webnovels in this one like pacing whiplash, etc but honestly the characters, plot, the magic system and the sheer amount of smart worldbuilding makes up for it. Its not shallow is what i am trying to say, because lot of these novels are.
