I am the author of this novel, so of course I am biased to myself. Welcome to my book! I thank everyone for reading my work, even if you don't like it. I have read a LOT of webnovels, many of them translated from chinese. I have seen a lot of commonly used tropes, and as a change of pace, I wanted to create something different. There will be nearly no "Young Masters". Only a very select few. (The absence of at least one idiot is just as bad as overfilling) There will be no "I must save (the Honor of) my Family!" There will be no "Heaven sent lucky chances". Heaven controls luck, and Heaven does not like the MC, at all. I also want to show a real change in Gravis' personality as time goes by. He won't always be a wimp. He won't always be a cold-hearted killing machine. Just as emotions change, people change with them. This is a lot to live up to, but I'll do my best. Updates will be 2 chapters per day. I have a backlog, so updates will be constant. Thank you all for reading!

Tbh it's an alright story. Very cringy in places tho. At some points, it makes it seem a bit more real but then instead of learning from it. It happens again and again. The main thing that is making me drop is the whole heaven, bad luck thing. I mean I get it I really do but you don't have to mention it and go on and on about it every single chapter. Plus it's used in the most random ways just to make you remember again that it is there. Like when he was chasing the bandits, It was funny. He was having fun. He was heading to the city anyway, and this is just fun on the way. But then it is made out that it was heaven affecting him??? WTF how??? how will chasing bandits along the road you already have to walk affect his cultivation or will? As long as he remembers his goal and strives for it, he can do whatever tf he wants. Just because he isn't moaning and complaining about it and isn't focusing on breaking free 24/7 doesn't mean it will weaken his will... It's honestly annoying to read about every chapter. Then you have how can heaven even atk him like these situations... It was made out very clearly that all heaven would do is not give him luck. Okay so in random situations it is always the worst case. SO how is heaven making him chase bandits? It shouldn't be able to do that... Plus, how will heaven even affect the mc's luck? We call it luck but luck shouldn't be a concept to heaven. Also, if the mc always had no luck then he wouldn't survive at all. Bad luck is like when he is cultivating something can go wrong and die. Never find love etc It will be impossible for the mc to even live let alone cultivate. Also if heaven is fair why is it taking the luck of the family? It killing random people, animals etc trying to kill the mc. How would that be fair to the other people and animals???? It would be much better if heaven was made out to be a person. Cause then everyone saying heaven is fair is clearly lying cause it's not...

Reveal spoiler

a good beginning but the mc is not ruthless enough for someone who wants to go againts the heavens. ┻━┻ ヘ╰( •̀ε•́ ╰)┻━┻ ヘ╰( •̀ε•́ ╰)┻━┻ ヘ╰( •̀ε•́ ╰)┻━┻ ヘ╰( •̀ε•́ ╰)┻━┻ ヘ╰( •̀ε•́ ╰)┻━┻ ヘ╰( •̀ε•́ ╰)┻━┻ ヘ╰( •̀ε•́ ╰)┻━┻ ヘ╰( •̀ε•́ ╰)┻━┻ ヘ╰( •̀ε•́ ╰)

I am just giving up. The story is just depressing to read. I understand the point of the story. I understand why everything is happening the way it is. It isn't that the story doesn't make sense. The story is fairly well written with consistent updates. The pace of the story moves along at a good clip as well. The issue really comes down to the character design and world background. Both of these are intrinsically linked due to the primary antagonist, Heaven, also being an integral part of the world design itself. It just isn't fun to read. Who cares if the MC is overpowered if things are manipulated by Heaven so that he never has a real challenge? Who cares if the MC's Dad is one of the strongest beings in creation if he just allows the other strongest beings to harass and ultimately kill his children? Who cares about the MCs goals if he destroys himself in the process? The entire time I was reading I was just waiting for the other shoe to drop, for it to feel like the MC was actually making progress. After 100+ I am done. The story is just depressing and not fun. You know that every time he gets close to someone they are going to die or have their life ruined. You know he is never going to stumble upon something interesting unless the purpose of stumbling on it is to hurt him. Tragedy: "Tragedy is a form of drama based on human suffering and, mainly, the terrible or sorrowful events that befall a main character." This story really needs a tragedy tag so that people who don't want to leave in a worse mood than they started can avoid it.

As someone who read the whole novel, I'll give out 4.8 stars. The Writing Quality is perfect. Well, I can't say much on it as someone who doesn't naturally speak english, but it was perfectly understandable for me. And even if there were errors and misspellings, they were quickly corrected as soon as possible. Story Development? That one deserves some praise-worthy claps! Wuxia? Xianxia? The search of Immortality? Dao? The understanding of medicine? Get that stuff outta here! This novel makes a twist out of everything that would be considered cliches! Immortality is actually achievable, the dao can be actually understood! The elements of the beginning matter even in the end, and the elements of the end explains everything about the beginning! Everything makes sense once you read the whole novel, and you will not regret it, I can assure you that. So, before reading the novel, don't assume that what you know from the other cultivation novels will help you here, because you will be as lost as an American in a vegetarian bar. Character Design... Well, it's excellent! Our protagonist, Gravis, goes all the way through the emotional spectrum, starting as a naive kid before trying to harden himself to prepare for the world of cultivation, before he actually matures. Everyone makes mistakes, and Gravis is no exception, but it's because of the mistakes he makes that he grows up after understanding and learning how to deal with them. You will rarely see a protagonist with a personality as excellent as Gravis among the novels here in Webnovel, in my opinion. However, while I want to assign 5 stars here like in the rest, I have to take off a point because that's as far as it goes for Gravis. As for the side characters, I have to admit that they all were written with a plan in mind, the author knew what to write for each of them and perfectly shaped them as he wanted. However, to be honest, I think the author could have done more with them, but it's fine as long as the novel is good, which it is. Updating Stability? Well, it was 2 chapters a day like the majority of the novels here, what else can I say? Except at the end, when the author had to send out 1 chapter every 2 days due to some deals with WN itself for a certain in-app event, the author respected his timeline. World Background? Absolutely outstanding! This cultivation world can truly be called unique, and you can't tell me otherwise without reading the novel first! We have all the tools to understand the whole world, along with some details that gives us a clear sight of how the world looks like. As for everything else in the sidelines? That's open for interpretation. But they are on the sidelines because they don't truly matter, you can consider them at most as filler. All in all, I truly appreciate the time I spent with the novel and the author. I enjoyed reading about Gravis' journey across all the four worlds, and seeing the ups and downs of his adventures. Whether it was when Gravis was heavily injured because of unique circumstances, whether that happened during a hard fight, whether he spent his time by himself getting stronger, whether it was when he found his friends and lover, whether it was when he dealt with his father, the Opposer, and the Highest Heaven... As a reader, I can definitely say that I am satisfied with this novel, from the start to the end. I will be reading Sword God in a World of Magic now, a novel made by the same author. For anyone reading this and actually liking the novel, I'll be waiting for you in there. Goodbye, Gravis and everyone, it was a pleasure to read about your story.

pretty solid novel, some people bash it for the fact that the "bad luck" part of the novel is all heaven's fault, and yes it is, but that's part of the novel. it isn't some random bs that he just blames it out of nowhere, it's part of the main characters "gravis" background. it's something his entire family has to deal with, not just him, so I see it as just another element of the story that adds something else to make it less boring. This story isn't repetitive either, it's not just "go to new place, make someone mad, get their family/master involved, then whole sect, destroy sect, go to new area, repeat" when the enemy is the world itself, instead of trouble popping up randomly, it's instead finding allies and friends that is random since the mc has to assume the world is against him. overall, this novel has some pretty good development and story elements to it and takes a very different approach to cultivation compared to other novels, and is worth the time to read it.

This is crazy good for an Original Work!!! I have only read a few chapters so far. Normally I would never leave a review after just a few chapters unless the author was really bad. But this one is so GREAT at writing and the logic behind his world and world building is fantastic! This LN actually has the "heavens" of the cultivation universe/world show an intelligence or capacity to think and that it is actively continuously working against cultivators growing stronger (or also called going against the heavens). Very great start to this LN and I really can't wait to read more and get an in-depth immersion into this LN's world :-)

Pretty good, definitely recommend got a good story so far and like how the Mc knowns his end goal. And I know for a fact the thing that gonna be attractive about this is the Aventures
