I've read till chapter 78.
This is my unbiased review.
The story translation is better than most cultivation stories here. But the pacing is extremely slow killing any entertainment you can get from the story. But the weakest part of the story is the plot and world building is extremely weak IMHO.
The plot can be summarized thus. The MC is someone without a spirit root, that can't raise their cultivation in the conventional manner. So he gets a golden finger and can raise the quality of pills and ingredients. He creates pills from waste materials that are created when pill concoction fails. And eats these pills to slowly raise his cultivation. That's it.
Yeah if you consider the MC is wholly dependant on eating pills to cultivate, we expect alchemy or pill concoction to be a big part of the world building. But no, not only he doesn't know any pill concoction, the world doesn't have many different types of pills too. Like whole idea of pills is just a concentrated spirit energy that people take to speed up their cultivation. Extremely boring.
Cultivation system is very weak and simplistic too. They just suck in spiritual energy (or qi whatever) , raise their cultivation level thus Qi amount. They use this Qi to use magical talismans , magical tools etc. As you can see, cultivation only makes their mana capacity higher to use limited use talismans or unlimited use tools.
They don't have concept of different cultivation arts, styles, dao etc.
Like where are the sword cultivators? Poison cultivators? Formation masters? Alchemists that can create more than concentrated Qi pills?
Different dao? Space time powers?
Yeah let me tell you where they aren't . This story.
This is my review after 78 chapters.
