Starts really good but once we move to the new continent it becomes worse, fights drag on for nearly ten chapters, MC starts acting out of character an arrogant young master pops up out of nowhere to start messing with the MC over a girl that the MC clearly has zero interest in. Honestly the first hundred or so chapters were 5/5 later chapters were like 2/5.

The system last fully appears in chapter 19 and afterwards only getse mentioned whenever the MC needs something or the author wants to add something and can't think of a good reason. The first arc is relatively boring but I wouldn't completely recommend skipping it as there are some things in it that would be important in later chapters. Overall relatively fine read.

It is a good work but his so called heaven defying enlightenment it a bit weak. The most it really ever does is allow him to learn after seeing something or find hidden secrets left in seemingly ordinary books, already passed chapter 60 and he has yet to create something new, mainly he advances by introducing concepts from modern earth to some time around 700 AD. None of this is inherently bad, but it isn't true to the heaven defying enlightenment sub-genre either, which is a disappointment to fans of the sub-genre.

The early chapters are good, later on though the author stops caring as much. Still not bad but you can see that the author started putting less thought into this. I am temporarily stopping at 158 to see if I can find something better, who knows it might pick up after all there is an introduction to a new realm and many of the things from the current world will soon become irrelevant, which kind of makes it understandable why he would put less effort into many things that would soon be ditched and even outright ignore them.

It starts cool and the cultivation system is interesting, unfortunately it seems one path mentioned at the beginning was all but abandoned. Truthfully it doesn't hurt much as the third path was more of a support for another, but it doesn't change the fact that one disappeared for basically no reason which is disappointing for people like me.

It's okay, nothing special and pretty generic, but at least it is readable if you have nothing else.

The start is okay, unfortunately the author keeps making random dumb arcs that just drag out far too long.

Honestly I dropped it at chapter 9, normally I would like to give a series at least 20 or 30 chapters but I just can't only 9 chapters in and the author has already started resorting to bullshitting his way through, in chapter 9 a new feature of the system appears to smelt Martial Arts, which seems all good until you realize he writes as if it has always been a feature and that we should already know about it. It is one thing to bullshit, it is another to pretend your bullshit isn't bullshit. Just based on this I can already tell this work isn't for me as this alone says a lot about the author.
