Classic 5-star author review. In this novel, I write what the reader in me wanted to read in a cultivation novel. First and foremost, I am an enjoyer of the xianxia genre and cultivation novels in general. But some common points tend to frustrate me or take me out from the plots. Typical examples include MCs that are needlessly hiding their abilities when they could obtain huge benefits by just revealing some or the MCs vowing to stay low-key only for them to murder the son of a powerful figure the next minute, because he insulted their parents or something. With Journey of the Immortal Grandmaster, I try to portray believable characters with logical behaviors, even as those characters become more and more extraordinary. You will find a martial art adventure with a new realistic spin to it, and an accent on science. No OP MCs, cheat items, and stupid stepping stones piling out one after the other. Our MC will have to climb his way up with his determination and wits, from a normal starting point. Han Lingyun, our MC, is very smart but isn’t perfect either as he is in a growth state. You might find him on the cowardly side, especially compared to the traditional MCs. It is in Han Lingyun’s nature to calculate risks and rewards all the time. Admittedly, this novel is not for everyone: there won’t be constant life and death fights and face slapping if that is what you are looking for. The plot should fit more those that prefer ‘low-key’ MCs, more specifically, the MCs that don’t rely on Deus Ex Machina for saving themselves from an all-powerful cultivator they angered for the hundredth time. Don’t hesitate to join Han Lingyun on his epic journey!

I didn't expect to find a book where the author actually explains what qi could be and doesn't use plotarmor in a vague way like cultivation works because of qi and qi is qi. I like how the author thinks and didn't find obvious mistakes in the math and science parts. there are a few minor points that could lead to a strong power creep between the later stages if you consider that core cultivators can already destroy mountains from a distance but it should be fine if he stops the exponential growth he currently has between the stages. sure fighting higher stages should be almost impossible but it shouldn't be 1000 vs 1 that is one stage higher and the one is winning without problems or getting hit. at least after the core stage where everyone knows techniques and has a good amount of qi. but that is just me rambling about things that are hard to balance and would be normally readjusted over time while writing but because it is WN and we read the first version, the author has to think more about thinks like that because it is so hard to rewrite entire scenes or plot points.

Reviewed at chapter 11, Excellent work so far, I always wanted to read a novel of a transmigrated scientist in a cultivation world, and a mathematician is very good too. I am keeping some golden tickets for when it is enabled. The MC has a consistent personality and doesn't stray from his initial goal, 5 stars for character design. We don't know much about the world but I quite like the fact that those in power do their best to sort of brainwash/endoctrinate their people. It seems very realistic and not something we see often put forward in cultivation novel even though it is sort of mandatory for sects to do so. 5 stars world The writing quality is the best you can find on webnovel, I have seen some typo but it very rare (I remember seeing once heeled instead of healed) 5 stars writing quality. Please keep writing, your knowledge of science seems adequate to write this novel, I like that you took time to give some research material to validate your claim in the novel. I won't hesitate to support you when they enable it. Keep up the good work!

Fantastic. Great pace of advancement in the beginning, i hope it will continue and not begin to slow down like some authors. Fantastic writing style and well explored cultivation system. A rare gem. great job author

I really like the story ! Its not the typical cultivation webnovel with young masters and jade Beauties. The cultivation world is good explained no loopholes or op supreme cultivation technique at the start or some op cheat. Perfect mc who isn't stupid and uses his brain and is not walking around and offending everyone. Hope the Author continue this story and doesn't stop the story midway really liked it till now.

5 stars. My impression for now is very good. This book is a refreshing and original take on the martial arts genre. I really like the sense of realism I get fromthe plot. I like how the main character focuses on increasing his odds of surviving and doesn't necessarily chose the path expected from a main character. The pace so far is very adequate with no unecessary delays and the story progresses quite rapidly to the cultivation world without seeming rushed. I hope to see more of Formation crafting next !
