Lin Changqing, a surgeon, died suddenly on the operating table due to frequent overtime work and lack of rest.

His soul reincarnated into the Lin family in the Nine Peaks Mountain of the cultivation world. In this new life, Lin Changqing decided to savor life slowly.

He would practice cultivation, farm, enjoy the company of his family, raise a few spirit pets, invite three or five friends to brew tea and discuss the Dao, and explore the mysteries of the world.

Along the way, he would experience the vast and magnificent cultivation world, witness various rare treasures, magical spirit beasts, and precious spirit plants.

The most important thing was to achieve eternal life with his family.

This novel is a slow-paced story, not a harem or invincible genre.

The novel starts well, I really felt like it was going to be a fresh take on the cultivation genre about family and building up a strong clan, but the story lets itself down failing to find fresh new ideas to match the type of story it's trying to tell. It falls back on the common wuxia tropes pretty quickly,

... more>>
Spoiler

it forgets clan members that were introduced and their designated to character worth one or two sentences to catch up when they were teased to be like his adventure group, He only cares about his immediate family when it's pretty clear the rest of his family care about the clan, and literally the first time he properly leaves the clan on a mission in the early chapters he hasn't been back for over 120 chapters, we only get his thoughts about how something he's found might help them, but then find some other unnecessary reason to continue his adventure. The romance is weird, but it's the typical damsel in distress type of wuxia with a supposed ice princess type vibe that the MC melts.

and the worst part about all of this, is that it could have been a good story if the MC just went back to the clan after the secret realm. At that point he has the OP cultivation technique for himself, and if the writer wanted he could have included techniques for his family in that inheritance. By that point he has all the ingreadients to provide infinite pills for his family to breakthrough the next two major realms and the story could have actually started a clan building arc that would be way more unique than this typical wuxia type thins it's gone down.

[collapse]

The story also has major issues writing chapter that do a whole lotta nothing, I think we spent like 10 chapters on a flying boat ride were he just goes to the market at every stop. And there's more pacing issues.

For some reason the world is Sexist, I'm pretty sure in the 200 chapters I have read I can count on 1 hand how many female cultivators that have fought, even in the clan, we haven't met a single female elder and not a single member that goes on the demon beast hunting team is female. And when the m encounters bandits, if you're a girl he will probably keep you as a Bonafede s*ave while rationalizing it as some form of mercy in his head because he lets them cultivate still, but chances are if you're a male bandit, he'll torture you, cripple yore cultivation, and still kill you if he feels like it.

anyway this is just a rant at this point, the story can be enjoyed if you just want a typical wuxia story with an extremely lucky protagonist, like 70% of the story is him being lucky, then you might like the story. <<less

Similar to other reviewers, I had mildly hoped this novel would bring something new to the table

The first part where he was still in the clan was promising since we had an MC who tried to act his supposed age despite being mentally in his 30s (I'm pretty sure it did a number on his mental faculties though so not sure if it was worth it)

Now if only the author had bothered to expand on those supposedly "wild" childhood adventures that the MC offhandedly referenced when the author skimmed... more>> over how his childhood was soooo much more eventful than that of that totally not 2d ice princess who grew up in a sect filled with political intrigue yet somehow managed to come out of without a single cunning bone in her body

Yeah, as you might've guessed from the example above, the author's worldview is more than a bit misogynistic

We don't get any women readers would be interested to know the perspective of (hell we don't even get any men for that matter; we're just stuck with a generic MC whose most defining characteristic seems to be his luck since his personality changes on a dime otherwise)

I may have been a bit spoiled by TCF to the point that I keep hoping his past life as a surgeon would've been more relevant, which it appeared to be the case for a bit since we had some dreams about him remembering his past life and... that's it. For like 140+ chapters he completely forgets about it.

His past life doesn't influence him at all except to boost the numbers on his mental stats. It doesn't affect his fighting style (needles aren't exactly what you'd imagine when you picture a surgeon. a tcm practitioner maybe but not a surgeon), it doesn't affect his morals (hippocratic oath who?). It would've been better if the author showed him struggling AT ALL to harm another person due to his medical background. At this point I'm trying to find excuses for him by imagining his was an underground surgeon... but then he wouldn't have died from overwork dude wth there's not that much demand for illegal surgeries

Not to mention how unflappable he is in his first real fight

The other kids panicked (as is normal) but Mr "presumably no fighting experience" Ex-surgeon takes command easily as if that was on the resume we never got to see, I dunno, maybe he started as a field medic with active battlefield experience or something but readers aren't allowed to know about it because f*ck us apparently

Honestly the only part of his backstory I can believe is that he had no friends or family because this guy seems like a bipolar sociopath, which makes the premise of the fic (family cultivation) more jarring. It could have worked if the power of family was shown to visibly affect his character development but all it did was give him a smooth childhood, solid support, and the vague motivation of protecting and uplifting his family I guess. Did those affect his choices in any meaningful way? Is he more generous with people? Kinder? More merciful? f*ck no this is a xianxia after all and that excuses every morally reprehensible act that could be twisted to plausibly be self-defense (which is made worse when I know xianxia MCs stronger yet kinder, but they had the fortune of being created by decent authors)

I would like to be proven wrong about this guy as I was about the MC of TCF but so far I see no hope of that happening

The author likes to skim over interpersonal interactions to focus on fancy names and concepts they disguise as worldbuilding (which can easily be ignored since 80% of the time whatever they bring up is never plot-relevant)

Even worse is that they tell us about the mc's good relationships with other people but never show us for the sake of having more word count for talking about materials that aren't relevant beyond how much they apparently cost and will never see again

One actually proper personality quirk the protagonist apparently has is liking opening lootboxes apparently, since he paimstakingly cracks open stones to take a peek inside when it's a foregone conclusion where it's gonna end up (the bottomless stomach of his cheat bestie who never talks and has even less personality than him, but can be excused because it's a tree)

He likes to refer to his pets as family but it's clear they don't rank as highly as his human birth family since when thinking about family, they're never brought up

It would be more in line with thinking of them as particularly favored tools despite him arbitrarily giving his family name with only 2 of them instead of all

Spoiler

He gives his family name to his cheat tree and calls it his sworn brother but they have so few interactions you'd be forgiven for forgetting the tree is sentient.

He gives his family name to a random horn artifact that developed a consciousness and even use the generation name for the next generation, referring to it as his child, but after the first time it's used, you may as well ignore it ever existed since he never talks to it again and treats it like the tool that it is.

Y'know who he doesn't give his family name to? His bird, the first of his pets to have some semblance of a personality. The bird gets no surname because he doesn't count as his kid despite the bird being hatched by him and viewing him as a parent

The scorpioms I can excuse because there are over a hundred of them and it's not like he has a random name generator available to name them with

The deer get their own surname, which is fine since they were already a family unit before being ens*aved by the MC (he steamrolls the stag into accepting a given name it clearly didn't like because the name "was for the mc's convenience"; I would not bet on the author being pro-trans rights is my point)

The mouse has a shitty name but it doesn't seem to care which, good on it for not caring about the mc's opinions beyond self-preservation

[collapse]

Don't expect any sort of acceptable morals from him; it's too much of an ask for him to return an animal to their owner when he could toss it into the bottomless pit in his space to terrify his deer s*aves with it's dying screams and completely forgo any leverage over it's owner

sure it was risky to keep around but he didn't even pretend to contemplate letting it go home, even with available proxies right there

his respect for the dead also flip-flops; one moment he's burning corpses and looting bodies, the next he's gathering up possessions to their families, and then he destroys a set of bones and later feels slightly guilty about it because the original owner left him some very useful stuff

at this point, he may as well be making full use of the corpses and using them as fertilizer for his tree brother but he apparently prefers to cremate them when as established earlier, he had no qualms using a living thing as fertilizer

his luck stat is rather absurd since he runs into cheats like they're cabbages

Spoiler

even in the secret realm arc, his luck was s*upidly high in that he managed to witness and loot a fight where all participants were incapacitated so they were easy loot for him

this happened not once, but twice

[collapse]

Either the proximity to the MC has killed their braincells or the people of this world have much lower intelligence since common sense decisions are treated as clever ones

I'm not sure if it's a problem with the author or the translator, but there have been a few notable incidents of mixing up names / promouns <<less

When I started read this novel, I really liked the original concept. This would be an original work when the focous would be the MC + his family, not just him like others wuxia stories. I liked that so much I signed the TL patreon to read the advanced chapters. But, unfortunatly, since the chapter 80 (something next to it), the writter has lost in his own story and transformed this in another generic tale we have already seen before. And honestly, I think to put almost 150 chapters as... more>> advanced isn't the better way to offer your work in this competitive enviorament. Scored that, lets go:

Characters: 1.5/5

The only character I really liked was MC's grandfather. Stong, wise and carefull with his family and clan. When the MC tells to him about his opportunities, he doesn't trie to explore his grandchield, but he tries to protect him giving good advices and offering support to him. It isn't something forced, you really believe he is a good guy, a result from a good clan which knows the importance to treat well his members and don't allow individual interests break the house. The MC is medyocre. He is slight better than ordinary wuxia MCs, but at the end, the bacame one like them. One thing that get me out his story is how the writter sometimes forget about MC personality.
Spoiler

At one moment, he likes to keep his word, but another "Nhá, I will kill him anyway".

[collapse]
The other characters are forgettable.

Character's development: 0.5/5

Only his junior sister has some development, from being a naive person to a wary one, but is so bad executed that you don't feel anything about her change. Well, it's not a big loss, she hasn't been an interesting character since the start anyway.

World building: 0/5

We don't know almost nothing about this world, even after 200 chapters. Just the ordinary blá-blá-blá we all know. Nothing.

Fighters: 0.5/5

The combination with his spirit animals and his mu*der style is interesting. You really feel the importance of his animals, but is just that. I read dozens of fighters and out his firsts fighters, nothing is really impressive and entertaining.

Story: 1/5

Its really nice to see him and his family together at start, but how this story has become a "solo level adventure story"...

Futhermore, God, this MC is more lucky than Yun Chen or another Wuxia character I remember. I am not kidding, in the first 100 chapters, he meet an opportunity after another. After the first 100, he has got one each 5 chapters. Damn, at one point, I catch myself saying "OH, no, another f*cking one??? God, when he will come back to his home?"

Serioslly, I really liked this story at its start, but now is just a generic wuxia. <<less

Edit as of chapter 257: This is a bland story that never really goes anywhere that other stories have not gone before. I definitely feel like this is a bait-and-switch because it promises family cultivation, introduces a family, and then focuses on MC becoming the best at everything by himself. It's stuff you have seen before. Plot armor and ridiculously amazing gifts allow the MC to be amazing. As much as the family aspect fails, it is technically there so if you want to see a cultivator give leftovers to... more>> NPCs he is related to, then this is the novel for you. I will leave it at 4 stars because it is actually still a little better than average and the beginning really did raise my hopes. And it is still a little interesting are 200 chapters. I will leave my earlier reviews below but frankly I would not recommend this for the title. I would recommend it for a development-heavy cultivator story where he has his own secret world and raises a bunch of animals though. I don't think I have read any cultivation novels with a beast tamer like this that aren't ridiculous.

This is a really interesting cultivation story. No angst, no backstabbing within the family, just an MC that gets a cheat and remembers to also use it to help his family.

This does have some pretty massive plot support for the MC's cultivation so you should expect him to get some pretty convenient treasures. But he doesn't gobble them all up to fuel his ultimate technique to avenge a great injustice, or any other angsty nonsense. He lucks into these things, uses them, and then shares them with his family. So you should expect more concern for others and interactions with his surroundings.

As for the MC himself, he is rather hesitant to put himself into danger. I wouldn't say he's cowardly, but he's also not blindly running into danger to test himself. He is the type to build strength and hide his power to avoid trouble.

It's fun and good quality but I'm giving it a 4 because it has occasional info dumps and the character interactions seem rather wooden.

Edit as of 214:

I'm going to drop this if things don't improve soon. At some point the author forgot about the "family" part of his title and made it just another cultivation story. I'd have to go back and start re-reading to remember where it became bad, and I don't like the story enough to do that. The MC isn't particularly likeable or interesting and the story itself isn't unique or engaging, so without the benefit of seeing one of these damn cultivators actually caring about people, I have no reason to keep reading. At this point I would just describe the story as the author's self insert into a cultivation story. MC has plot armor and ridiculously powerful items that allow him to do whatever he likes. The author goes into autistic levels of detail for preparations and planning of minor events like how he uses his powers to get rich by cheating at gambling. Plus the MC has a sociopathic disregard for pretty much everyone, which is pretty easy to ignore since nobody really has any personality. <<less

Really interesting story given that it's something different within the cultivation genre. One usually does not see such camaraderie specially among family members in a fairly large family clan since most of the time there's plotting, political strife, backstabbing, and other sort of complicated circumstances that lead to ruthlessness and vengeance.

Story premise aside, the story is tagged as romance - late romance and given the slow pace of the story that seeks to detail a lot of the MC's actions and thought processes for our understanding, it is safe to... more>> assume that we won't see the FMC for at least 100-200 chapters.

Now, onto the questionable things. I am unsure if the author chose this prose style because he's weak at writing dialogue or if he's experimenting with the narration. Nonetheless, the story contains little to no dialogue, often with chapters in between each dialogue appearance. The story reads more like a record, almost everything is taken care of by the narrator leaving us as a sort of distanced observer. A way to put is that the MC does his things, the narrator writes a diary detailing the actions, and we are reading said diary.

Personally, I find it quite interesting case so I do not mind it much but for those who are unsure, a brief read to the first chapter will let you know if the story is for your not seeing as how it will likely not change styles. <<less
