'Ancient Strengthening Technique' is terrible. NOTICE: I HAVE NOT COMPLETED THIS NOVEL AND I HAVE NOT READ THIS NOVEL IN A WHILE THEREFORE SOME THINGS CAN BE INACCURATE. Firstly, I'll suggest a few things about making novels (before I continue reviewing) to those who may desire to create a novel but don't know how to, or is afraid of what the public may say or people like me who are really critical about what we read and do not desire to see plot-holes or novels of poor quality. You'd need to first... more>>

These are the main points that made me take some distance from the novel. I believe with professional editorial work, this novel would have a great potential, but without it, it lacks a lot of stuff and is "OK" at best.The author sometimes spends 3~7 chapters fully on the protagonist reflexives thoughts about his training, planning and training results. That by itself isn't really a problem, but these infodump chapters aren't really much different from each other and it usually feels like you are reading the same stuff over and over again. There are also characters that disappear only to come back stronger than the protagonist even the protagonist having been training for so much time with so many cheats.
He worked so hard using so many cheats and even so Yu He went from Houtian to Martial Emperor in like 3 years where the protagonist took more than 15 years of real time, not counting the time from his training inside the Spatial Realm. The protagonist even affirmed that the Ancient Strengthening Technique was a perfect fit for him.
The author insists on the protagonist's inferiority complex even when he's already banged like 12 women that are world-class beauties. It feels really off about his personality because when he trains Nature Energy, Spirit Energy and stuff like that he always says that his personality becomes more relaxed and confident and you can clearly see that's not really happening, his mentality didn't really change since the beginning of the novel and that causes a LOT of his relationships go through troubles. If he sees a woman that looks too beautiful and not to his tastes he automatically assumes she's a sl*t and treats her like garbage. It happened more than once. He's very often a hypocrite and can't seem to get over some stuff, even everyone telling him to get over it. I don't know if these parts are the author's intention or just the author's consistency. He's also supposedly has eidetic memory (perfect memorization), but keeps forgetting stuff like abilities and items that can solve the situation really easily but never even mentions them in that moment.
I used to believe math was the same everywhere on the world and this novel seems to break this rule. The author seems insistent on using numbers to show levels of strength and time relativity. The thing is: I don't know if it is really the author's math or problems during the translation, but many times the math doesn't make any sense. Those who read until chapter 31 can already see signs of this. Later the protagonist and companions get skills and equipment that boosts their power in the % basis. However, that's not only one or two skills but more like 13 of them and without a calculator it's not really feasible to follow his calculations, which are pretty constant.
Besides what I already wrote in his mentality, there's simply way too many characters and the protagonist clearly can't really manage his lovers and family. This is really showing the protagonist starts going to other continents. A lot of people is forgotten, and not only minor characters. The way romance develops and feelings grow cold from being apart sometimes doesn't feel natural and sometimes really feels like the author forgot about someone and is just giving an excuse. He keeps getting married to girls, even thought they all start like "I won't marry to a guy that wants more than 1 woman!" they always keeping welcoming more and more woman smiling all happily because "Strong men have a lot of wives" even tough the situation is going out of control. I mean where I stopped it feels like there's more Quing Shui's women and children than there's other people from the Quing Clan.
