The story is about a reincarnator from earth who was reborn as a commoner in a cultivation world. When we were first introduced to the MC he was already a cultivator and a member of a sect since apparently he was recognized as having some talent and became an outer disciple of the number one sect in that area. From there we then follow his journey into the cultivation world as a common cultivator.

By common, I mean REALLY common. He is an average cultivator, not the Chosen One, or Old Soul in a new body. He doesn't have any cheat (at least so far) or even a ghost teacher/guide of some sort. And I have to admit, after reading so many stories about arrogant Heaven's Chosen, psychopath MCs, etc, reading about the average joe MC who's only trying to survive one day at time and not hard-pressed to save the world from a big bad boogeyman or avenge the death of his father/mother is kind of refreshing.

The MC is actually my type, he is cunning, merciless but not mu*derous (meaning he won't hesitate to kill if the situation necessitate, but won't go out of his way to kill people after the slightest disagreement, nothing I hate more than a psychopath Mc), often hide and run when at disadvantage, seems to be good at everything despite not having a cheat, hides his true abilities and treasures, slightly devious and money oriented, BUT also rather bland and has the charisma of a turnip. The author didn't say anything about the MC's past life, but if I would have to guess based on his personality, he was probably a middle age businessman, because he sure act like it. He's like Meng Hao minus the humor and charisma.

I get that the author wanted an average joe MC, but they forgot to make him interesting. We know nothing about his past life, we know nothing about his life BEFORE he joins the sect, in fact if the MC is a sentient sausage who one day suddenly wanted to become a cultivator it won't change a thing. We don't know his past, his goals, his hopes and dreams, we know nothing. As such that when the MC joins a competition (as early as chapter 10) I really don't care. Nothing was at stake, I don't know who this guy is (you can't just expect the readers to support the MC just because you want us to, dear Author...), I have not invested in him yet, so why should I care?

So is it good? It's okay, I guess. I have a feeling that the author wasn't really into the story themselves, so they're like halfassing it. The author can write, but their heart isn't really in this.

It only has 100+ chapters so far, so hopefully it gets better soon.

Edit after 300 chaps:

The good news is the plot has expanded a bit. There are new areas to explore, new sects, allies, and enemies. The MC even gained new teacher and sisters. The bad news is, his adventures still follow the same auction/herb buying -> pill concocting -> treasure hunting -> fighting -> cultivating -> auction/herb buying cycle.

Some of the allies feel distinct and have their own personalities, the villains however, still indistinguishable, they all act and talk the same, I didn't even bother remembering their names and factions, they'll die eventually anyway.

The MC is still distant as ever. He never opened up and be vulnerable to the reader, which makes it hard for me to empathize and sympathize.

the MC becomes very wealthy very often but on the brightside most of the stuff he gets is only for his level so no broken heavenly immortal sultra or god devouring sabers and such, at least so far, the thing that is bothering me a lot atm is that the MC will got plotted against multiple times and still have no response, like one time he almost got killed cuz of a plot and the same guy who plots against him tried taking his stuff too when he thought he died
