Terrible. Another one similar to "martial god asura" which is a trouble magnet MC that everyone wants to kill for no reason. MC can't even breathe without progressively stronger enemies coming after him, or an important family that wants to kill his clan because he and another clashed fists once in the academy. Naturally, they had to instigate all sorts of assassins or otherwise try to kill the MC for that so very important reason. That family is prominent in the local sect, so the MC has to deal with the old ones wanting to kill him too. Saved by elders "taking an interest" in him... other nonsense. This is as dumb as can be.
This is one of those hot blooded MCs similar to Martial God Asura, Peerless Martial God, and the like. The MC is constantly under threat of death by everyone, his own clan, rival clans, people who just met him, and of course the elders of the people who are offended because the MC exists. Even worse, the novel is supposedly over 1200 chaps, but several paragraphs in every chapter plus every other chapter is the author asking for money. The novel wasn't horrible when I wrote this review about a third in, so I'll give it 3 stars - it was cliche, trouble magnet MC, but still written with some skill.
It's not horrible- I've read about 200 chaps now. It just seems "immature?" Like it was written by a teenage fan of more classic novels of the genre. More and more the MC changes from someone nice to another hothead MC that goes around getting into fights constantly. All the tension in the novels are enemies just randomly encountered that suddenly the MC has to defend himself or his clan from. Arrogant young masters and faceslapping. Young beauties that want to marry but the MC ignores. Sister that joins an arrogant sect that doesn't like the MC. Everyone in power bends over backwards because the 14 year old MC claims to be a medicine doctor and a powerful alchemist. The book is headed towards trash like "martial god asura" at this point as the MC is getting stronger, so I am not interested in reading further.
I could only handle about 60 chapters of this poison. Have you read "Martial God Asura" or "Peerless Martial God" ? Then this novel is like that, though not written as skillfully as they. A stupid MC whom the entire world hates for no reason just has to get into death feuds with everyone he meets just because he's breathing.
It's pretty decent for a cultivation novel. The only downside it that it's too long and still not finished. Author should have copied the greats...I shall seal the heavens, coiling dragon, king of gods, a will eternal, etc and kept it within 1300 chaps or so. Anyhow, MC is very old before rebirth, he is very calm and deliberate at all times. Doesn't like to talk much, prefers to sit in his rocking chair when he can. A typical "trash" who suddenly became great novel but written more interesting than most. No point in talking about the plot, they are all similar but this one is well told.
I got about 25 chapters in and couldn't take any more of this garbage. This novel is like "peerless martial god" or "martial god asura" with an MC everyone hates for no reason and the MC can't take a single step without making an enemy trying to kill him. Even the members of his own clan. MC is arrogant and runs wild fighting and killing. Every beauty is automatically attracted to him. That sort of trash novel.

I can't say I like this - the MC is constantly being humiliated and just bears it. Crushed face down to the ground all the time by stronger cultivators to bully him, literally slapped across the face by others, his possessions seized by government cultivators, other possessions seized and forced to "sell them" for a fraction of the value, that sort of thing. The MC never gets even, never beats up those offenders when he gets stronger, he just bears it "because they were teachers and government leaders". How about the teacher slapping him and calling him a coward in front of the whole class? No problem, MC just puts up with it. A hundred chaps later, does the MC get even when he's stronger? OF COURSE NOT. A leader crushing him flat and taking all his things? Get even, NO. Ugh. This novel was infuriating. A wasted read.
This is better than expected. Usually system novels suck, but this had a decent plot and a system that wasn't cheesy nor deux ex machina all the time. Starts out as a body refiner, lowest cultivation level, with the system helping to upgrade his realm as he upgraded his "ship" which went from like a small flying boat to a yacht to spaceship etc throughout the story. Pretty much a cultivation story, sci fi style with a relaxed feel..not slice of life precisely, but unhurried with plenty of action though. MC is good natured and humble, gets a harem...not a bad "short story" as far as cultivation novels go.
This is a novel about daoism, not the typical xuanhuan. The difference between them is understanding and mastering laws vs straight up cultivation. Daoist novels typically follow ancient chinese myths - nuwa, houyi, Tathagata and the like. The MC here gains cultivation by engaging in artistic pursuits which baffles and/or enrages everyone else who think he's wasting his "talent". The MC is unable to cultivate the normal way and unable to absorb pills or other cultivation resources. We have from a family to empire dealings to leaving the world to a bigger plane. Enemies include the beasts, demons, disciples of other realms, and even Saints. MC is OP for his cultivation level, no love interests or harem. The novel reads like a slice of life/xianxia cross with the MC constantly cultivating by playing chess, carving, painting, ect told in a story of the plot. The fight scenes are generally unremarkable, this is more of a plot story than an action. Still, an enjoyable read.
This is one of the worst I've read. It was like watching a train wreck but you can't look away. Not only that, but it is pretty much a copy of another novel that was also terrible. It is nothing but "an abused boy" who was mysteriously hated by his entire family for no reason that goes independent, wins the lottery, starts a company and just delivers faceslaps. People come out of the woodwork to insult and humiliate the MC for no reason, just to get faceslapped. Disgustingly bad, I'd say more, but my command of the language is unable to meet this challenge.
