In the beginning I liked this 5/5 and it was awesome. However, MC is far too OP. No longer needs even the super heavy plot armor. He gets ALL the luck. No one else gets anything ever. Every female described as beautiful ends up in his harem including underage girls. All enemies have a copy pasted personality. This novel will become repetitive.

... more>>
Spoiler

He easily destroys team of 8 sky profound while in 6th level of earth profound. "One of them was a half-step into emperor profound realm". Author says it's impossible to cross earth to sky realms in strength, but it seems he's crossed over it and crossed 2 realms of power as well.

[collapse]

Other characters have almost no personality. Every scene has at least a few repetitive sentences stating how awesome and OP MC is. I've found myself skipping and skimming through chapters in 600s. I'm lost as to how this is rated so highly. I've dropped this because I've found myself unable to read this after ch 684. <<less

If you have a lot of Xianxia novels it may look a bit cliche (as in protagonist was and bullied and then becomes strong, but not like the in-between contents of the plot) but I think this is a good novel if you don't like a goody-two shoes protagonist.

Listen... all that you gotta do is get past the first 45 chapters. The moment that Yun Che gets his meridians fixed the feeling of the novel changes drastically. Basically, the first 45 chapters are a glorified introduction to the character Yun Che... it also makes the rest of the novel more flavourful (maybe). In my opinion, perhaps a bit too long (it almost made me drop the series) ; however, later on it pays off.. or at the very least the rest of the series makes up for the... more>> initial lack of badassery.

As a personal opinion, ATG is the most addictive drug/Xianxia novel on the market to date. For example, this morning I stayed up until 3am waiting for chapters 221 and 222 to be released... nuff said. In short, read it, bookmark it, thank the the author, and pray that you live in the same timezone as the translator! <<less

This one is also one of my favorite novel. I have the same opinion as AustinShaff review. I love the novel and I hope it never ends. There’s some comedy, action, romance, and of course revenge. The MC of the novel personality;
If the people treat him good and sincere, he will forever remember them and treat them 100×times good and sincere. If you people treat him badly and or harm him or his loves one, he will forever never forgive them and will pay them back 100xtimes. Even if... more>> try to knee and beg in front of him apologizing it is too late to regret. He is a guy who always pay back debts peoples owe him or he owe them. It is always better to be his friend than his enemy. <<less

Basically what's been said over and over by others. The story started out decently, but got steadily worse. Everyone's an arrogant young master, including MC, and by around chapter 200 there's no interesting threats left. Everything is "BOOM, they were all shocked by his strength even though they'd seen it before, BOOM, he kills more people, BOOM, blah blah blah." It doesn't help that the MC is a face-blocking beat-stick, the most boring kind of MC. He can take hits that would demolish mountains with merely a scratch, and that's... more>> when he's still in tr*sh-tier.

By chapter 366 the author's setting up his ascension to a wider stage, and I just don't care. When he was at the sect level it was somewhat interesting. When he was at the empire level and wiping out entire sects in a fit of pique it was far less interesting. And I just don't care to see him at continent or planet level. I've read a lot of cultivation stories, and about 90% of them are more interesting than this one. <<less

I understand making the MC OP and fighting above his rank, but there has to be a limit. It hasn't even been 80 chapters and he's already beating people 9 ranks above him. I know it's OP wish fulfillment, but this many ranks already is just dumb. This is all within the first series of real fights.

That isn't even mentioning just how s*upid he is for starting that fight in the first place. A basic description: ... more>>
Spoiler

it's the classic banquet tournament, and some rando + his friend gets maliciously injured so he goes up and beats the guy who did it. He then challenges and beats another guy, which could also be reasonable (for sect honor, since two of theirs were beaten). Even the third wasn't totally insane, although it was stretching it a bit (more sect honor and showing off to be valuable). However, past that he's just courting death by continually insulting big sects that have people at least 3 realms above him. He even intentionally tricks and cripples a pretty important person of one of the biggest sects in the country!

[collapse]

I really liked the beginning, lustful and shameless MCs are my favorite. He's also ruthless against his enemy, which is really satisfying. I'm giving it two stars for that. <<less

this is my review since ATG is my second cultivation novel that I have read. Well many of them said this novel is damn super cool for those readers who are starting to involve in cultivation novel. Well I admit. Because in this novel, there are lot of things that attract me. There are humor, harem, ice jade beauty, a very damn good plot, and etc. Therefore, as a beginner who is starting to involve in cultivation novel, these point are really important to attract the readers. (At least for... more>> me)

My second point that I want to mention is the author really take a very damn long time to finish this novel. I really didnt notice at all that the novel started in 2014 and right now we are already in 2022. It is 8 years long bruh. But well, the waiting is worth it after all. My guess is this novel will finish around 2100 chapters with the current plot that is currently happening right now. If the author can keep up with daily updates, at least he can finish it by end of 2023 I guess. But I think it is impossible after all.

The most intriguing part in this novel (for me) is the Xia Qingyue. The plot that the author made for her is very interesting and thus it make me keep reading until the truth regarding her revealed.

The current plot already revealed a lot of things, thus the next upcoming arc is very predictable right now.

That is all for me. <<less

I don't do many reviews nor am I very good at them, I'm not picky about Chinese web novels either, but I have to say this story is very underrated and overrated at the same time.

In the usual story we see MC Yun Che being a tr*sh reincarnating and then being Op, then he meets the typical jade beauty who is there to be saved and at this point I have nothing to say it's very generic but what do you expect watching a Chinese web novel? But if something... more>> I have to say is that this novel has some things that stick you, the plot the development of the MC and some secondary as xia qinyue jazmin and caizhi that have the best developments in this type of novels, if this is weird for those who have not read the whole novel but both its protagonist and the things that happens in the kingdom of god are very interesting to read its plot is full of mysteries darkness and revenge.

Plot 9/10 I think since they entered the god realm it may be the best plot of any Chinese novel.

MC 7/10 In the god realm war arc, before 4/10 too generic.

Female Protagonists 9/10 Here I'm only talking about jazmine xia qinyue Qianye Ying'er and caizhi

Secondaries (wives) 5/10 there are some interesting ones but after becoming yunche's wives many lost depth or characterization.

Secondaries 7/10 there are some very good ones but they don't come out too much

World building 7/10 in the original world of yunche, God's kingdom building is 9/10 of the best even for non-Chinese novels.

This series has a slow start but if you are used to Chinese novels you should be fine, but you will see that after you come back from the illusory demonic realm the plot flows much better than before and when you get to the god realm I assure you that you will not want to stop reading, if you like this genre you should read atg surely the best Chinese novel I have read and I have read over 130.

Thanks for reading you must have noticed but I don't speak English and it is difficult for me to express what I want to say in this language I hope you understand. <<less

Decent beginning gets pretty stale after a while. Concerning the r*pe claim, all the detractors neglect to mention the context of the act. Without the r*pe, the woman would certainly have died and her reluctance while there may be different than how you would first think. Whether that is justified or not it should still be taken into consideration and making value judgements that the MC is a s*xual predator just based on that act alone is a stretch. Still he acts like a total ret*rd around the harem acting... more>> a bit too pe*verted concerning his mental age. He also keeps picking fights way above his level, showing his power level for no good reason and not rescuing his family asap. <<less

Even tho its the typical story for its genre, there are some unique points to it that makes it quite an interesting read.

Really great read for men of culture since most if not all the character interactions are well written. The MC's relationships and development with his women along the story is quite unique and will really get you voting for the best waifu along the way.

Against the Gods or also known as Acquire the Girls is about a man who fate decided should be the person shouldering some sort of guardian role for the universe, however the man has never had the ambition nor desire to be one and only wants to stay with his loved ones. But alas, humanity's greed and wickedness has set him to the path of awakening his ambition for power to be able to protect what he cherishes the most.

I really like this novel in the beginning, a classic story of a guy struggling to get strong to protect his loved one. But the story slowly becomes worse after Yun Che leaves his blue planet. The author becomes more and more sadistic in torturing Yun Che. The "epic fights" the author writes can be best described as hopeless struggle with pain and suffering sprinkled on top... then the author pull a damn "miracle" out of his ass and gives Yun Che a second...a third... and a fourth chance... it's... more>> ridiculous, it just gives more opportunity to torture the poor guy. If you like seeing the main character in constant pain and depression and then have a few quick come back scenes, then watch as his friends, families, and allies gets thrashed and killed so Yun Che can fell more pain... well I highly recommend reading this novel.... otherwise you can basically stop reading after he leaves his planet.

I'm so sick of the s*upid fights and unnecessary tragedies the author writes. It usually takes about 15 minutes or more to read each chapter, but now I basically just skim a few words every paragraph to see who dies or not to get the general story, finishing each chapter in less than 5 minutes. The only reason for me to even continuing reading is just to see the ending after spending so much time on it. <<less

What can I say? This is a pretty generic chinese harem-cultivation wn.

Sometimes, some love it. Sometimes, everyone hate it.

Altough this one is sometimes better than those many tr*sh novel.

I understand the criticisms this novel has received in the middle parts of the novel but as of now, the novel has improved so much. The writing has improved, the characters have improved and most importantly the villains act like real villains. You may find them unreasonable at first but when you think from their POV, you understand the actions. The allied characters have also become very interesting. Even now, I cannot guarantee that one of MC's closest ones won't betray him. It starts with light tone, then interchanges between... more>> dark and light in the middle and now it has become the darkest it could have ever been.

To comment about the MC, he may seem intelligent and vicious at the beginning but there are others who far surpass him in terms of that but it is reasonable because at the end of the day, he is a man who haven't even reached 50 years. You may find him repulsive and annoying sometimes but that's what makes him a human-like character. Throughout the series, his character develops and even now, his character is still developing.

The author really did a good job with the world. I'm not talking about the world-building (which is also good), I'm talking about the "morals" of the world. Currently, I'd say there is not a single character who didn't have tr*sh-like behavior excluding a few characters and I'm saying it in a good way.

Spoiler

For instance, let's talk about Mu Xuanyin (the widely acknowledged best girl). Even after knowing that ice phoenix has tempered with her mind, she still fell in love with him and that's not the worst part. The worst part is when she clearly hands over her Sect to her sister and goes to "su*cide". If XQ didn't take the Snow Song Realm under her protection, the consequences could be deadly.

Pretty good, especially compared to most of the xianxia stories out there.

Yun Che's harem chasing is a bit much, but the combat is well written and the progression is a good pace.

The novel started off well, having interesting characters, pretty good world building and the pace of the plot was decent. However like most Xianxia/Xuanhuan-based novels we get a lot of recycled content e.g. train, power-up, tournament, repeat... etc and it begins to head downhill fast in the latter parts of the story due to the story being unnecessarily dragged on. It almost feels like Mars is dragging the story out just for monetary purposes and no longer cares about the quality of his novel. This is especially so when it... more>> comes to the Realm of the Gods Arc. It feels lacking in character development (some would say the MC's character development is thrown straight in the dumpster) and almost filler-like. Its sad to see a novel that started out so well end up being destroyed by lack of originality and borderline laziness. Hopefully Mars proves me wrong but at this point it almost feels like he's given up and would rather focus on his newer novel. <<less

This novel is really good. Especially once it gets to the realm of gods. Thats when it goes from good to great. If you dont like when the MC has a harem and has a bunch of girls falling for him then you'll prob have some complaints about it but its really really good anyway. I don't mind him having a harem so if anything to me that made it even better. Especially his master in the realm of gods from ice phoenix sect. Love her.
