The melodramatic plot twists are kept to a minimum, which is great. Like the annulment of the engagement in *Battle Through the Heavens*, the male and female leads don't actually have much conflict; it just gives the male lead motivation to strive, without needing excessive drama. Life has its ups and downs, but as long as you work hard, you can always succeed—that's what a normal person hopes for.
Having read for 40 years, I've reached chapter 135. This author's skill level is 90% higher than Eggplant's, which is excellent. It's been a long time since I've encountered a book where I don't skip chapters. The world, characters, and events are clearly described, the handling of matters is clean and efficient, and the logic is not chaotic... Keep it up!
It's fairly standard. Although some new settings were added, the core is still the traditional underdog-to-hero trope of showing off and getting slapped in the face. Basically, passersby mock the protagonist for being useless, the protagonist breaks through in cultivation. The passersby are surprised, then someone else says he's lucky to have broken through. The passersby continue mocking, the protagonist continues to break through, the surprise continues, and the luck continues.
Great! It doesn't get bogged down in melodramatic plot points, and the use of build-up and suspense is excellent. Each breakthrough is incredibly satisfying. Also, the part where he breaks through to the Core Formation Realm and crushes Zhao Hong was so exhilarating! 😳
I caught up with the main group in one day. It's my type; the male and female leads, as well as the other characters, are all very well-developed. I'm looking forward to the next map. Of course, I personally prefer a single female lead, but we'll see how the author develops it later. After all, everyone has their own preference when it comes to single-female harem stories.
It's pretty good. After reading so many cultivation novels, this is finally one that doesn't just mindlessly praise the female lead. Although it describes the female lead as beautiful, that's all we see about her appearance. There aren't any extras endlessly praising her looks, nor are there any scenes where she's constantly being stared at like a monkey, like everyone being shocked by whoever…
It gets better and better as you watch. Although the protagonist is a bit as cautious as Han Tianzun, the satisfying moments after all the build-up are truly captivating. I was watching until 4 a. M. And then realized I had to go to work at 7:30 a. M. 😄
Personally, I feel it's 4 stars, but giving it 5 stars is an encouragement for its strengths. I think its only real strength is that it handles the melodramatic and chaotic plot points with restraint, preventing readers from wanting to curse the author. Currently updated to over 60 chapters, overall it's indeed a very good work.

The writing is good; it's crisp and efficient when it needs to be exciting, and subtle and understated when necessary. The senior brothers of the Taixu Sword Sect have distinct personalities, clear-headed thoughts, and are not at all conflicted, making for a very enjoyable read. Moreover, the author promises no cuckolding plots where the female lead is targeted by someone else.
