just started the novel, earlier 100 chapters. The novel is not bad but lacks details, pretty much the author lacks ability to write the fine details, most of them are full of no sense!33 Outside of that the author also avoids the standard "BAD" generic cliché in some cases, this is good. In reality i'm little torn about giving 4 stars or because just like he avoids the bad generic cliches, he also dives deep, DEEP, in the generic tropes on the other side. the orphan girl who was "helped" by the mc's family as way to work as marriage partner in the future, out of nowhere became a super genius martial artist with huge talent, capable of even keeping up with the mc own "cheat". Not only that but somehow her "missing family" came back and seems to have hidden but very POWERFUL origin! Another girl with mysterious background shows up, same age as the same, and only other female in the guards.. bla bla bla. the cheat is the one who can "upgrade things", is another fail, like i can accept a cheat upgrading cultivation because if you think about it: most cultivation is based on accumulation of energy/transformation of the body, so as HIGHER level artifact, pushing the cultivation of newbie is child play, since it uses "high level of energy-power" but KNOWLEDGE, literally giving "free knowledge" etc, is always sh*t! this is only the start.. the real problem is the messing up with "details", from "money", to training, to rewards in the mission, to even how the cheat work (one kill, allowed for a entire minor realm upgrade) is all problematic and decreases the level of the novel because it makes the "world" seems ridiculous BUT outside that there's nothing wrong really. maybe i'm just judging too hard and exactly because of that i wrote that i'm torn between giving 4 stars or not, for sure the novel is not worth 4 stars, maybe is not even worth 3 stars, but so far there's really nothing "wrong" PLOTwise and no big mistake that warrants a bad review-stars.

I just started only 100chapters in and i know this is just a rant, but the logic of the plot, or better yet the lack of it tells us something about the quality. i'm not puritan but i just find really illogical about the entire brothel/sex sh*t costing hundreds of taels, thousand taels for a few time and later on the same but with immortal resources and the way the author write those plots is just ridiculous not because is a brothel, but because is tr*sh really we are talking about a HIGH level brothel with noble ladies but street level ones and some random low level cultivator. a small amount sex services was worth fortune in the mortal world, or the rent for entire year in the immortal market. the same applies to the entire martial training: According to the story: a person who just started seeing his qi and blood, entrance level can have the strength of 2-3 people and beat 2-3 people in frontal combat as stated.(the mc after 3 months training). is just ridiculous plot because making people a mini super human is so cheap relatively speaking that EVERYONE(in power) would want to produce entrance level martial artist, just for the sake of production. yeah you right that right just for the sake of being farmer and labor. it would literally take just a couple taels(outside of the martial technique itself, that all big powers have) since by the author own description of the training and plot; for production doubling or tripling(because you would be strong, would not be sick, as stated) would barely some time to pay back. for example: when the mc started planting master, all the work outside of rain tech could be replaced by martial artirst, increasing production by a huge margin.64 the story seems fine but is filled with holes!! after all for some reason not told the immortal families still compete for the kingdom so why no one ever thought in making kingdom produce 2-3x more? or at least the people under them! maybe i'm expecting too much given that there's such an ocean of GOOD reviews

The good points is that the author have a reasonable development for someone who was HUMAN and became a ANIMAL. 141 the(mc) acts with reason and intelligence. Since he was a "Human", his "thinking" is different from simple animals, this is also "rubbing" on family as well, truly showings us how it should be done in a history where animals increase their IQ. Most people seem to forget that it was the increase of Our IQ that increased our "needs", the more you "think" the more you are not satisfied with "only" not being hungry! Most authors who write this genre makes the mc downgrade instead of having everyone else "upgrading" and this is just a fail. Some authors goes so hard in "downgrading" that they make the mc's forget 50-70 years of life in a couple day sometimes. this is just ridiculous, IQ is a curse as it is a benefit! I will say again: the more you "think" the more you are not satisfied with "only" not being hungry, you start to question things, you start to doubt, you are curious about things around you.. the downside is that the author lacks ability in moving the plot forward past chapter 150! the world build lacks logic, like at first we are seeing a spiritual energy recovery, the author went so far to introduce the "cliche" "earthquake" and spirit energy tide drama but still the abilities makes 0 sense based on any reasonable cultivation, is all random, even for human seems very random too. So the world build and the ability to develop the story is not good. the good point is really the characterization, bad point is the world building. there's a lot of things that could improve but the basis is here already i made the review because as chapter 200, the author is making turn in a little too strong on the wishfulfilment plus the world building is becoming even more no sense, so i will take a break for now and wait more chapter build up to see if he can "turn back" or go down hill from here.

is hard to speak about this novel. everything have potential but i feel that it lacks deep. for example, the mc send a task to repair the wall, the players thought, let's make cement and do it. To make cement you need to use a furnace and you need really HIGH temps to burn the powder.. here they did in half day and were successful, from using random wood found in the forest, being far i'm not even complaining that they could get all secondary materials in the woods or a random mine nearby, (the author never stated where they got it) but making cement without the furnace.. 52 Simple put, it lacks DEEP, the author says some bullsh*t and they do it without caring about if it can be remotely possible or not.. if the author at least used "magic" from that world or things like that to "bypass" some of the tech challenges, would be acceptable but no, nothing.52 this is why i feel conflicted about the story... we all know how the story of "game world" goes.. with immortal players and things like that, if a work like that lacks detail, what is left for us? i read up to a little over 100 chapters and it just made me tired.. things just "happens"... of course the thing i wrote here is just ONE EXAMPLE that happen. the same happen to most of the plot, the mc needs something: go find it and be done and he is successful .. it feels really shallow but outside of that the story is following as normal.. is just a shallow story but we don't have the usual problems that it shows in most novels. So i'm torn in how much stars to give!, in my personal opinion because of how shallow it is, it would be barely 2 but being real, if you are not a person that likes details and don't care about logic sometimes and enjoy more just seeing the story flow is without doubt a book worth reading.

the novel was fine, until the author "reveled" the treasure bead "inheritance". it went from a slow novel with a smart guy, seeking his own immortal way in a modest manner with his "immortal live cheat" to simple a full CHEAT OP mc that must solve all troubles, even when he is still relatively newbie. the amount of OP CHEAT the mc got in that 2 chapters, was higher than even some wish fulfillment novels and the way the author changed the story flow later is worrisome and this is coming from a NOVEL (this one) that already have in a sense a very developed immortal world with very advanced concepts like upgrading world and things like that and yet the mc "inheritance" on the bead is FAR FAR stronger than anything they could think of. just go give a small glimpse: the mc earth body, allows him to be IMMUNE to dmg from same realm cultivator.. in other words: only one HIGHER BIG realm can dmg the mc and if that is not enough, the dmg is reduced for higher realms as well.. simple put the author is already giving us the "details" of his wish fulfilment slap feast, because no same realm can even wound him, plus, he also gave a way for him to "travel"-leave the blessed land, so we know where this is going. I will STILL KEEP READING to see if the author going to adjust it, with all that cheat but gonna be honest, that alone decreased the value of this work by 2-3 stars, if i wanted a mindless OP mc, i would search for a mindless SUPER LUCK OP mc work, not this work. 52 and if it keeps going in this direction, i must agree with other friends that gave low score. I give up..

One thing that i noticed that may have thrown people out of the loop. 195 is that the author is focusing too much in trying to paint dark-ruthless wizarding world but in reality the story itself does not seem to follow that! and people may have a problem with that. So it becomes a loophole, and it became a problem in the story telling. after all, if everyone is made to be dissected as an experiment like the author writes every now and them, how could the academy have rules? how could they go with contracts and sh*t? how could they focus on "real knowledge" aspect, as STATED?? this is not some demon cultivator setting of doing sh*t because is "fun"! So everything is fine, as long you ignore those "forceful" bablings and focus in the actual story telling, is fine. just like is not a problem having "wizard=cultivation".. is a magic based system: the author even went around in explaining it in Notes, that the only reason they call themselves "wizards" is that is the newbie wizard village, not because they are "ONLY" wizards per say. overall is solid 3 star, because the story is developing in some reasonable way, no dead beat enemy showing up just for fun... nor young master. People can be "ruthless" but still knows how to take a "step back" and that "fit" with the description of wizards having "brains", instead of pure mindless machine seeking to torture-kill! the biggest DOWNSIDE is that the cheat is too OP, the student does not need to MASTER the knowledge, only know the "basic" to give feedback.. and as you may know, "mastering" far harder than just learning basics. Also the cheat should give the mc advanced knowledge but the mc is f*cking newbie.. NEWBIE.. what he is using-learning as newbie is SUPER basic stuff, so even advanced knowledge should not be TOO OP compared to the "real" good knowledge.. but no, is really OP. this is affecting the PLOT heavily by making less about TEACHING and more about OP MC As i read more, i will update this review later.

the novel have a very generic outlook but be aware that generic does not mean bad!199 here there's no deadbeat enemy, people does not act like a kid all the time even if he lived for centuries. the mc is not afraid of "giving soup" if it means he can eat "meat"! if you can "give" like one spirit stone to someone (pass some small cheat-ability) and be paid in 10, why not do it? this is one of the main point that most authors fails to realize and make the mc go from qi refiner to even nascent soul laboring like a stupid person "because" is supposed that only "him can do it" and to make worse: is only successful because of plot armor. this alone is a huge plus Now the BAD side,there are TWO big problems first:translation, the mtl real bad.. and i do mean a LOT this makes the quality decreases a lot. second: the author lacks ability in writing, developing plot. some things are not well-thought-out, so this leaves troubles and problems in the story telling. is not exactly a "plot hole" but a problem with the writing itself, like too much "bullsh*t"! update ~200 the author started to spell some bullsh*ting, so the quality decreased, for example he started to TRY to push the mc from foundation to golden core in a few decades, and he is making a mess and bullshting left and right to make that happen. 1 be aware that the "rule" of advancing to foundation before 60 is pretty much true in this story.. it was talked-introduced dozen times and even the MC only reached completion of QI refiner at 50's. but after foundation the author is losing his grasp; reaching golden core will be even faster... he is making the mc become immortal cultivator, a "earthly" immortal type character with incense, a wizard.. and to make it worse: everything seems simple to work and very worry free! in learning-doing it if he was so good in learning, he should have Not wasted 60 years and even "fail" in building foundation because he could not "complete" some BASIC steps! -1 star, is really becoming a mess.

about the book: the author focus on interpersonal relationship and this shows some level of writing abilities from him, it does not feel "caricaturist" like some other works. the power system is very bland, like you have basic cultivation techniques that can do x ou Y but there's not a lot of "spells" for example, so the role of talisman is far powerful than a standard work. Refining and even formation as well, is a lot stronger here but at the same time, the author does not explore this, since the mc is not formation-nor refiner. Another good point is: troubles seems to seek the mc, but at the same time, it does not feel/is that the "TROUBLE" only happen because of him and because he popped up, like some tr*sh books. update! End of volume 1,the author have something more, the work feels less "caricaturist" when talking about characters thus is far better than average book. it have problems: the "whitewashing" of the mc is ridiculous! he makes "excuses" to justify his actions like he is the victim but it reached the point that the MC is doing EXACTLY what he is using as reason to kill others because they did to him! this smells very tr*sh young master behavior. i'm tired of reading those plot, i'm not against a villain but trying to "wash" him as good is tiresome, i may drop it if it keeps going on!! Since he became golden core, the quality dropped with the plot, too much "lucky"! Earlier on, the world does not goes around the mc, like i wrote before but since he became golden core, everything changed. he needs body training treasure: the secret cave he was invited to explore is a secret cave for body training. needs soul-searching secret tech: next month there's a HIGH level SECRET auction that only works by INTRODUCTION, and you bump up in someone who can "introduce" you!266. Update~~300 things started to drop in quality, so 3 stars, too much lucky, plus once the mc started to become strong, a change of personality took place and started youngmaster behavior.

Going to give 5 star because some users put 1 star without even reading. I'm at chapter 2496. Being fair i don't think is worth 5 star, maybe between 3,5 and 4,5, there's a lot of "generic" development but at the same time the world building is very well made in multiple forms and ways. Instead of saying some generic sh*t like : we have 4 regions and 4 seas (like some generic novels do and never shows us anything), here the mc really went "around" most of the "world", thus we really got to see a lot. is just not a TOP novel because the author lacks ability to develop some of the really good and extraordinary world building he wrote, instead he tries to make a way out by making the mc becoming more and more "special" with his "Lucky drops". I admit that few hundreds chapter in, i was already regretting keep reading because such "lucky" was making me tired but the author took a "small Pause" on that front and just "keep developing" the "previous super lucky" drops the mc got and went back to sect development that i like a lot! right now as i write this review, we are in the conclusion of the "first" main "plot" if we are to call it, it is in fact very good and the "schemes" behind were very well done!! the only downside again: is that for a author who wrote "There is no system for mortals to fight for hegemony in the fields." that is supposed to be a story without a "system" and with a "mortal"(the mc) who move forward and suppose find ways to overcome challenges and develop his sect, the amount of "luck" diminishes that by a huge margin but this does not make the series bad, it is still very good.
