This is pretty subpar all the way around. Even for mediocre xianxia novels this is pretty close to the bottom of the barrel.

Characters and relationships aren't meaningful or even engaging. Other novels with flat side characters will at least include some amusing personalities. Another reviewer mentioned that time and specifically lifespans invalidated previous characters, I'd posit that none of these characters ever mattered to begin with. That they can define the MC by dying, showing his excellence by how extra old he can be, is the best service they could... more>> possibly make to this story. Also, I've read here and elsewhere that the MC is smart. However, he has no impulse control. He generally flies by the seat of his pants and things just kind of work out for him. At best, he has clever moments.

Cultivation and skill progression isn't great. It's all just always counting to some number to a little over 10 and then picking up some new skill to count again. There isn't much description attached to anything he's doing. Also, everything is just a power multiplier. It's boring AF in patch notes for MMOs. It's beyond boring in a book. One of the minor things that really bothered me is that the author, or at least the MC, seems to have no idea about diminishing returns.

All of this would be fine if it fed into a greater system, namely combat. There's a ton of combat in this novel. However, instead of having his simplified cultivation/progress system lead to something elegant it drops into a show of sword lights and power level comparisons. The author is very quick to take a sword light break to remind you of all the s*upid multipliers that make it so that the MC can beat someone a realm ahead of him. A very common topic, at least as far as I've read, is that he's really a level ahead of the level he's at, so it's fine, but it's really awesome that he's below the level at the same time. There's not really else to mention with the mechanics of combat except that they chuuni style yell out their moves as they make them.

He carries a dao he never uses. The MC is an absolute ape. The only thing he knows how to do is run around and boink things with his sword. But the author gave him world dao anyways. But he never uses it. In the 769 (now 1200+, still not relevant) chapters I've read, it's been relevant beyond just "it's so much stronger right now, sword lights with world energies!" maybe in like 5 or 6 chapters. He made a couple of attempts at defining world energies at some point but I think he just gave up.

TLDR: Read if you're bored or need something to pass out to. Skip if you haven't read everything else that you're interested in. <<less

I created an account only to say that this novel is really good. I have been reading this kind of novel for years and this one deserve your time. It's not perfect but clearly deserve more than a little 3/5, at least 4/5 maybe 4, 5/5. Please read at least c100 before give bad reviews, I'm still impressed by people explaining you how a 2500 chapter novel is bad when they have only read 5-50 of them.

This novel isn't perfect but the long-term plot is really well prepared, the progression... more>> is fluid and even if MC is overpowered he is fighting against strong people too.

(Sorry if there is some mistakes in the review, English isn't my mother tong) <<less

This novel is not bad but not exactly good either

the world setting of the novel is a classic of the MC lived in a corner of the world then keeps going to the “central continent” “higher world” etc...

the MC is the cliche young master who can’t cultivate but later unlocks an op cultivation technique and is actually a genius who’s compression is godlike and clearly he is the only one who can improve or learn new techniques but unlike normal MC in these novel he knows when to lay low and does not go rushing into things “most of the time” of his luck is bless by the heavens and any scent that is held very 10 years 100 years 500 years etc.. he is always there right at the time of the event and I never have the thought the MC will take an L cause at the critical moment he will power up in the whole novel so far he only struggled once and it was arguable

the hugs that gets under my skin the the most about the novel is level of plot armour the MC has he has like. 6+ trump cards that I swear no matter who attacks him he can escape or power up or use some weapon to kill

over I would give it a 2.5 stars it’s not bad for a quick read and would recommend to anyone who is bored an likes an op MC who follows many cliche

MC's cultivation is on steroids. A light read without complicated plot or sentences. Not bad per se, but filled with cliches, which can put off a lot of people who went through ATG MGA and similar novels years ago. I've only read 14 chapters so I won't leave a rating.
