The problem is that I already read a lot of xianxia/xuanhuan webnovels. That's why I find 'Unrivaled Medicine God' is so clice.

Spoiler

- Promising young master from one of the top realm died.
- Rebirth in the body of useless young master from the lowest realm (mortal world).
- The previous owner of the body is good for nothing young master & has very poor reputation.
- His family is having a struggle of power in the city with his rival's family.
- He has a loyal servant (young girl). And apparently, she has extraordinary aptitude for cultivation. She has very foul mouth and annoying attitude.
- The previous owner of the body pursued some annoying girl but now she diligently licking every bum in the sect in order to accomplish her objective (killing the 'good for nothing' MC).
- Keep getting breaktrough in cultivation and suddenly 'proficient' in medicine.
- If someone asking "How can you change so much?". His answer: "I encountered some luck with a mysterious granpa / senior."
- A lot of useless talk before & in the middle of duel.
- A lot of useless scheme and sneering because in the end MC will always do something that makes his enemy and crowd dropped their jaw.

So many review but most have only read 100 or less chapters and panning it - the novel is 3119 chapters long! From an alchemy/ crafting novel, this is one of the BEST novels around. This is why you have to be careful when you see low ratings on novels but most of the reviewers haven't given the novel a chance and mistakenly lump it together with all the other Chinese Novels.

This novel is DIFFERENT from other alchemy/ crafting novels because:

    1. Alchemy is relevant for 95% of the novel
    2. Alchemy is described in depth e.g. Materials needed, acquisition, concocting etc
    3. Not a put X ingredients in the pan and out pop the medicine novel e.g. Emperor's Domination, WSSTH etc
Just for the record I have read at least 20+ novels with alchemy/crafting including ISSTH, WDDG, WSSTH, CWaC, AEDD, SotTR, DMWG, ED, AST, BTTH, AWE, WotMG, MW, PMG, WoC etc

The ONLY other novel I've read with comparable alchemy is Immortal Mortal - that novel is more if you like an alchemist who knows nothing and has to graft from start, this novel is more for someone who knows a lot and such the emphasis is on the result rather than the journey. Both are solid styles, just a preference. A good analogy is do you prefer weak to strong or strong from start novels?

ISSTH and BTTH have solid alchemy but just not enough while WDDG is more about harem than pill concocting. Immortal Mortal and UMG basically have ISSTH pill concocting quality but the alchemy is relevant 90%+ of the novel.

So why are people panning it? Well, the martial path isn't as well done as in other novels and the romance is absent. If you judge this novel as a whole then a lot of readers can be off put but I came into this for the alchemy and as mentioned, its one of the better novels around which allowed me to read 3119 chapters worth!

This novel does have a couple of shortfalls though:

    1. No romance and long separation (its not really a harem novel)
    2. Slightly unsatisfactory ending - not as bad as Immortal Mortal but you can feel it being rushed and its obvious this is the author's first novel. There is closure though so its not a bad ending or cliff hanger.
    3. By last few hundred chapters novel is more about sword/ fighting than alchemy
    4. Only 900 out of 3100 chapters translated so if you don't like reading MTL wait a while - plus side its being translated on qidian which is fairly reliable
    5. Translation quality is average
TLDR: One of the two best alchemy novels I've read (other being Immortal Mortal) - I have read a good chunk of the mainstream alchemy novels - and if you don't mind a lack of romance and reading MTL this should be a must read. Not perfect but much better than most other crafting novels out there - don't be fooled by the low rating, most people haven't given this novel enough time.

5% story 95% annoying filler and audience comments, typical ordinary Chinese cultivation novel. Don't expect much as most pill cultivation novels usually revolve around the same cliche tropes. The story is filled with arrogant young masters and nonsensical problems that persist through 10+ chapters. Story line started decently but rolls in a downhill spiral from there.

Another OP MC face-slap fest Chinese cultivation novel, complete with all the same cliches you've experienced a million times, that actually starts out OK... until it turns into filler after filler, while endlessly repeating itself and saying things that have already been said multiple times before. Unrepentant in its blatant word padding, it seeks to bore the audience to death, 'Unrivaled Medicine God'? More like 'Unending Masochistic Grind'.

This was one of my favorite cultivation novels, but after some point I was starting to get very dissapointed so I here I am writing why someone should and also shouldnt read this novel.

Why someone should read this novel:

  • Genius MC, with fast cultivation which doesnt drug out for hundreds of chapters in order for our MC to get stronger. Things happen in this novel so you wont get bored for the most part.
  • Alchemy. Alchemy is relevant throughout the whole 3000chapters of the story, unlike many novels which our MC just has one-two small arcs about alchemy. And man I love novels with MC's face slapping other with their OP alchemy skills.
  • While there are some arrogant young masters in order for our MC get into face slapping mode, its not overly done. The story is not just about face slapping young masters like many other cultivation storys. There is a good story development as well at some points.
  • Also our MC quickly catches up to the older generation in the new realms he goes to, and we dont see repeated fights between the junior generation, where the genius come in droves and never stop.
Now why someone shouldnt read this story :

  • Its has many cliches of the cultivation genre (some done better than other stories, while some worse.)
  • HAREM-ROMANCE. This is literally why I am so dissapointed in this novel. I wont go into detail very much because I could tell a whole lot about why I didnt like it but I will just say this. Since chapter 1500 our MC's only motivation to get stronger is in order to save one harem member. And this goes on and on and on until the end of the story. Basically, if this girl didnt exist the story might as well have ended right then and there. This means that HALF OF THE STORY, exists only because of this girl basically, and when we actually reach the end of the story where MC saves here, the ending is so unsatisfactory that it really makes me loose all hope for this novel. ONE GIRL which we have only seen appear IN ONLY 3 OR 4 CHAPTERS during the whole story, is actually why this novel is as long as 3000 chapters instead of 1500...... Only to get a shitty unsatisfactory conclusion between them....
Anyway, this novel was one of my favorite cultivation storys, despite all... more>> the cliches, but if I could do it all over again, I would read only until maybe chapter 1500, before he goes into higher world. <<less

Well, it's a good novel despite being cliche. It has everything that a normal novel has: the genius girl friend of the MC; the main friend without much relevance; rivals; overpower.

It is not perfect, but it is acceptable, our MC was betrayed in the past and reincarnated in the body of a playboy who died, the good thing is that he does not act like a child always, only sometimes. Anyway, there is some visible and grotesque mistakes, but if you ignore it, everything will be fine, I'll give an... more>> example to anyone who wants a spoiler.

Spoiler

The MC is a sword master and in the fight of life or death did not even think about catching a sword but a technique, wtf type.

[collapse]

By the way, despite being a novel of alchemy, the major focus will be martial arts, since in this second life our protagonist wants to take revenge.

Maybe I edit in the future cause I like to read about 200 chapters before saying what I truly thinks about a novel. <<less

There are only a few novels that really focus on alchemy. 4 stars if you like novels that focus on alchemy alot.

WDDG is one and this is the other one. unfortunately WDDG is ruined by Ash....

Novels that will always be compared to this novel is

... more>> 1. Battle Through The Heavens, but BTTH pill concocting is not given foucs much because everything happens so fast and the MC needs to fight more and more.

2. Alchemy Emperor of Divine Dao. Alchemy emperor is utter tr*sh. there is almost zero alchemy done by the MC after a bit and he just gives away pill recipes and collect alchemists like pokemon. very similar to how the MC of SOTR does his stuff.

The other novels that are compared such as WSSH, PMG and so on is actually funny because these stories only use alchemy at the start as a form of quick powerups. alchemy is then ignored for a long time and possibly never happens again. <<less

it starts off as an average xuanhuan; fast paced, full of action and tons of face slapping. I like the alchemy stuff and I can relate his desire to be more balanced between the martial and alchemy paths. I could handle the very heavy plot armor, godly levels of luck, the excessive face slapping, the overload of excessively padded chapters, his friends-in-a-box, and even the harem, which periodically needs to be rescued whenever the author runs out of ideas and so lets them out of the box to get into... more>> trouble. What killed it for me was the chosen one/ child of destiny trope that popped up 1000 chapters into it.
Spoiler

when all that "chosen child of heaven/ mandate" crap came into play, my eyes rolled so hard I think I sprained them. As if the super thick plot armor and ungodly luck wasn't bad enough, the author just had to add the chosen one BS in an attempt, I assume, to make his cookie-cutter MC stand out among all the other xuanhuan cookie-cutter MCs. My interest dropped by at least 75% between c1000 and c1090 (and my interest wasn't that high to begin with). Consequently my rating dropped from an average 3 to a 2. Later I raised it to 2.5

[collapse]

on another note, I've never seen a story recycle names the way this one does. So many of his enemies are Ji or Wu or Gu in every realm that it's confusing as hell, especially when the names are spelled exactly the same and used for the same mook type characters (i suspect there might be tonal differences in Chinese that don't cross over to the English translation).

I also suspect this author actually cut and pasted some of his chapters, changing the name of the realm and the cultivation levels but keeping most of the rest. Some of the chapters are suspiciously similar, including having the same named enemies, but separated by 1000 chapters.

i really wish there was a half choice in the ratings. It's OK enough to be higher than a two at some points but I don't think it deserves a 3 over all. My current score is 2.5 rounded up. <<less

This is a generic xianxia novel. MC reincarnates, subverts people's imagination of cultivation, crosses realms in fighting, best Alchemy knowledge already available to him before even reincarnation.

However there is also a bullsh*t concept called Son of destiny by which he's always in frontlines in fighting evil. All extraordinary events seem to revolve around him or even world revolves around him. Divine treasures literally fall on him when others didn't even see them in their life. Dangerous events turn into fortuitous encounters. Plot armour is so blatant it's not even funny.... more>> MC seem to use his brain every time except in some blatantly forced situations by author.

For better or worse I was also reading History's strongest senior brother before this and I can't help find it funny when these cliche plots happen. In HSSB MC in the beginning literally encounters a 'protagonist' same as MC in this UMG.

Spoiler

Edit: I've completed a major arc in story. People in his world fighting for a chance to attain Deity Realm. MC level up--->goes to higher realm---->Literally almost everyone is deity realm. Author repeatedly mentioned how heart realm is important for attaining diety realm and how our MC is so OP in heart realm. If everyone is almost deity what's the use of explaining that nonsense so many times. Also face slapping seems to be the main theme right now.

MC - I will defeat you.

Random genius- Haha, I'm at X level you're at Y level. I'll kill you.

Background people - Haha, s*upid doesn't he know Random genius is greatest genius in 100000 years? Courting Death!

Random genius- h. How is this possible?!

Background people- How is this possible?! He's stronger than Random genius?!!

Random genius defeated.

Background people - what a great Genius better than Random genius!


Rinse and repeat. There's nothing interesting now.

So it's an extremely cliche novel which you find everywhere. It's not bad but it's not good either. Only helps if you have tons of time to waste. <<less

it's really good, it just takes awhile. The start of the novel is extremely cliche, this goes on for about the first 100 chapters. After he leaves his beginner region, that's when everything gets better and you get to see things that are different from other novels.

Finally finished the novel. The premise is great and the climb to deal with what the premise is great as well. As per usual, he deals with it and has to deal with a bigger world with bigger enemies. I like how the Dao was described from beginning to end and the use of Alchemy to get to where he is. Some parts were cliche but were still enjoyable all the same. Quite a journey.

Okay, so the MC is alchemy emperor which is a godlike existence that live in Divine realm, but one day he got killed and reborn in lower realm.

The MC is op right from the start, he can concoct pill that all alchemist at the same level can't. He can defeat people in a fight even though the opponent is a MAJOR REALM higher (which is pretty much impossible in most novel I read like ISSTH, Coiling Dragon, Will eternal, etc). But I thought it was okay because he was a... more>> god from divine realm, his knowledge and understanding in alchemy is very high. He's also cultivate the strongest cultivation incantation in divine realm)

Later in the story... he ascended to Divine realm and he's still op af. In Divine realm, the MC can concoct tier 6 pill with transcendent quality which NOT EVEN AN ALCHEMY EMPEROR (tier 9 alchemist) CAN. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? it is as if the MC is the only one who can do research in advance pill concocting method, IN THE DIVINE REALM! where people can live for tens of thousands years, please note that the MC only lived for 200 years in divine realm. Oh yeah, he still can defeat other people with a full major realm higher than him /facepalm <<less

its repeating MC goes to save her 1st love he cant save he goes so other realm does same thing happens same thing and at the end (around 2900) MC's 1st lover revives but she forget him than she recovers her memory and all at last chapter but dont stays with him and goes to get reincarnate coz she says she doesnt truly deserve him and all and went to reincarnate and MC marries to his 2nd lover than went to find her and this finishes the novel

means man its not worth to read till the end not enough romance, story development and very rushed and what you would be eagerly waiting for MC's reunion with his 1st love you will not get and hence you will be very sad.........

let's admit it, this is an extremely cliche story. Think of your normal cultivation light novel and you got it here. Even so, there are quite a few points that make this story interesting, at least for me.

OP MC. May be a big turnoff for many, but I love reading about OP MCs. This MC is as OP as anything, even after he gets to the end of his OPness from his previous life, he's still able to continue to be OP. I also love alchemy, and this story does... more>> continue with the alchemy focus for quite a while. He offends many strong existences, but also is supported by a lot of strong powers and thus is able to preserve his life. There's faceslapping, but even though there are a lot of people who come out as enemies, they're not all brainless opponents, which makes it more interesting. Obviously, the MC is OP enough to not fear any of them for the most part, which is what I like. Not much romance at all if you wanted it. MC as a whole has a very good personality, moral and upright but very willing to faceslap and be arrogant when needed.

overall, a quite enjoyable if cliche story. Will continue reading as the translation progresses.

edit: reread the story up to 1832, the latest translated chapter. Still as addicting as ever. OPness is just too good.

edit edit: basically finished the story, MTL'd up to chapter 3031. Dropped <100 chapters before the end bc it was dragging on too long. The final war has lasted for like 500 chapters. There were also some things in the middle that were annoying, where the author forces the MC to not succeed all the way so that he has something else to challenge himself with. <<less

Hmm, it was a good start, then you lost somewhere in the middle of a journey.

Plot 2/10: I mean how can’t you see that coming?

Chars 6/10: only for the MC, others didn’t have any chance for further exploration.

... more>> Romance 1/10: even when a more than half of the story is driven by the MC struggle for his loved ones, there is almost no screen for romance; it was like hearing politician promises on the campaign but find only nothing after the election.

Comedy 1/10: it is funny if someone can laugh much reading this.

alchemy 3/10: it was almost fistchemy instead of alchemy.

Ending 0.1/10: almost the worst of all xanxia that I ever read. There are many novels with rushed ending but still good, there are also many that was axed but still deliver nice satisfying ending, but what happen with this novel? It straight jumped into the abyss! Reading halfway and reading through the end wouldn’t give you different experiences, just stop anywhere when you get bored and it still okay. <<less

Your average face slapping novel, with an OP MC. Also the "villains" are mentally ret*rded and extremely one dimensional, also around 1600+ the story gets a little over the top at being ridiculous as the MC goes around proving others like a hedgehog, and then you get the chase down =>kill =>Dead person father chase down etc.

When I started reading this story, I immediately thought, "Uh oh." The main problem I, and many other readers going off reviews, have with this novel is actually glaringly obvious from the get go, but I wanted to give it every benefit of the doubt because I was really interested in reading an alchemy novel that actually focused on alchemy. In the end, I have only one thing to say to the author:

Find yourself a very aggressive editor.

... more>>
Spoiler

There was a massive sale on filler content down at the writing store and this author stocked up in bulk. Things that could be said in 1 sentence are consistently said over five repetitive paragraphs. There are other issues with the story, there are always issues with webnovels, but these issues are easily dismissed. Cliche plot turns (barely a twist, a turn at best) ? Tropey, poorly written harem members that indicate a distressing lack of any knowledge or interest on how women actually think, feel, and act? Unnecessary foreshadowing on simply resolved schemes? Yeah. Good luck finding a webnovel without those things. But they can easily be balanced with more interesting MCs and writing, and just browsing the comments of QI shows there are plenty of people who apparently actively like these things.

But the filler. My god, the filler. One very merciless editor who sent back every chapter given and told the author to go cut out a good 60% chunk of it could have saved this novel, but alas, Chinese writers are paid by the word I hear.

I give this story the same amount of stars as the average amount of content in any given chapter. 40% real story, 60% filler.

(Actually it's more of a 20/80 split on average, because when you have literally entire chapters are nothing more than filler, it really messes with the statistics. But you get an extra star for having occasionally interesting enough alchemy stuff to get me to read 113 chapters of this rubbish.)

Typical, cliched xuanhuan novel. The translators and editors have a limited vocabulary and grade school grasp of grammar. The translation smack of grade school kids style of speaking. Low brow, full of slangs. Once in a while, the translator/editor would throw in big words without fully understanding what it really means, so these words would get used in the wrong context.

There are typos all over, so editing is almost non-existent.
