Steadfast Cultivation: The Entire Cultivation World Is My Home

What I find most strange when reading these kinds of cultivation novels is that everyone seems to have a monitor on their head, so that anyone can tell whether you're in the mid-stage or early-stage of Qi Refining.

Since you enjoy writing about unexpected conflicts and protagonists who are always involved in trouble, why don't you write about the reckless path? What's with this "sneaky path"? It's just a bait-and-switch tactic.

This is too classic. Gou Daowen stayed in hiding for hundreds of chapters, and then suddenly he had a brain fart and started fighting and having a blast. I don't know how many Gou Daowens have died because of this over the years. Speechless. After reaching the Golden Core stage, the protagonist seems like a completely different person.

Those who want to read Gou Wen can leave now; it's fake Gou Wen. Too many flaws. Forced plot, endless forced fights, endless killings of superiors. Completely irresponsible. They have time and resources but don't upgrade their characters; they're just doing side hustles instead of leveling up.

I've read 100 chapters. The "golden finger" (cheat code) is usable, but ultimately useless. The free chapters start padding the word count, and the story relies on unorthodox methods like elixirs to make money, even adding a puppet technique. It doesn't seem very cunning. Before chapter 100, there was even a ridiculous plot point about insects attaching to clothes and being tracked.

The spirit stones in this book have gone completely inflated. Earlier in the book, several Golden Core cultivators had tens of thousands of mid-grade spirit stones, but by chapter 200, a third-tier dragon's blood (not even the entire blood) only cost 100,000 mid-grade spirit stones. This inflation is almost like the Japanese yen!

He dies from poisoning after dozens of chapters, constantly talking about surviving, yet knowing there are many Foundation Establishment cultivators outside, the Qi Refining protagonist still runs around recklessly, exploring island after island. Does he want to die?

The anthropomorphization of the clouds, and the subsequent emergence of the Heavenly Dao consciousness from the Immortal Realm, were terribly poorly written. The protagonist shifted from a steady, reliable character to a subservient one, and the Heavenly Dao consciousness was utterly disgusting.

The protagonist, barely in the early Nascent Soul stage, only needs a couple of pills to reach the late stage. He, on the other hand, consumed countless pills and had a perfect Five Elements Heavenly Spiritual Root for 20 years before breaking through to the mid-Golden Core stage. How could a mere early Nascent Soul cultivator like him so easily advance to the late stage?

A cultivation novel based on economics, yet the economics are completely chaotic. Not recommended; garbage.
