Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

so i will first go through the two high scores but first I want to say something THE AUTHOR IS A FREAKING LIER AND A BIG TIME LIER AT THAT!

going back to the two high scores, he has stable updates, and even though the world background isn't original and highly limited it's not bad, though if I could I would have given it a 3.5, not a 4.

now for the writing quality, not saying that I'm a genius in writing or a stickler for grammar, I'm not. and I normally don't complain about non-proper grammatical sentences and I won't here, the problem is that the writing style is very awkward although it's still readable, the style seems like we are reading a list of things that the mc is doing rather than experiencing the moment with the mc. it was highly prominent a the start and lessened slightly later on and if the 2 things I'm gonna talk about weren't so bad the awkward writing style wouldn't have been a total dealbreaker.

story development, eh, actually I'm kinda torn. i like how the other characters aren't your stereotypical "you dare! you seem to have eyes but not have seen mount tai" but the main problem is with the MC, he I supposed to focus on cultivation so he specifically joins a sect that specializes in pill making yet the story bends backward to keep the mc as naive as possible, they literally teach him NOTHING LITERALLY NOTHING and that's the ACTUAL theme of the novel, total idiotic (yes e instead of an I was done on purpose) nativity.

he also gets everything without any effort.

character design, I would have actually given the character design a 2 or 3 if the mc was normal stupid, but this MC would not be accepted In the "special" class at school, they need the special version of the special version of the special class to nearly keep up with the mc's ritardedness.

forget 3 brain cells or no brain cells, I'm pretty sure this dude has a high negative IQ probably the most idiotic mc i have ever read in my entire life and i read the trial read novels with every cycle for the first free chapters...

the author tries to play it as if the mc is naive because he was working on a farm, but his idiocy reaches levels that this excuse can't justify, simple things like 5 min of research is something that he actively doesn't do, he actively digs himself holes and then he realises that he dug himself a hole so what does he do? he digs it even deeper, if you reach ch 48 you would know what i mean.

fine, the dude hasn't ever read or watched any fantasy/ cultivation anything but do a slight bit of research, my dude, if that's something you got interested in the first instinct is to read up on it or watch things on the thing you are interested on to gain as much info as you can.

going back to the author being a lier, in his comment he says that the mc is mostly ignorant for the most part for the first 10 chapters, but that's a lie, if anything as times go on it gets worst and worst as you can no longer excuse his ignorance.

While the story felt like yet another average cultivation-mmo story at the beginning, it very quickly took a life of its own and shown how deep the author had planned the world and the plot.
It is very interesting to follow the protagonist as he learns about the many aspects of both cultivation and Alchemy, and there are many currents and mysteries moving in the background.
With the high release rate as a bonus, this has easily become one of my favorite web-novels.

The story had potential, but the character development is almost nil and the protagonist is dumb to an unbelievable point, seriously, read a few chapters and you will see that even Naruto is smarter

I started this book as a third book to keep me occupied while my other books updated.
Boy am I glad I started reading this! it's got a somewhat generic beginning, however it quickly becomes something more.

The author is doing an amazing job with world building and character development so far and the author is open to suggestion. There are twists and turns that make this book really enjoyable and I like reading this much more than my other books currently.

This would be a perfect 5 out of 5 except for one minor thing that happens in the middle of the book but it's literally only one chapter and I'm very glad that I kept reading.

A good story that is ultimately weighed down by two big issues. Firstly, there is such a thing as too much detail. There were many times in the story I was reading when too many small things were talked about. Like going to one place only to be turned away because he needs *blank*. So he goes to get *blank* only for it to be a long drawn-out process. This happens a lot, and I keep asking myself: "Did you really need to take time to include all these useless things?" It really feels like the word count is unnecessarily padded. The other issue is the MC knows LITERALLY nothing. Imagine a little kid following you around asking the most obvious questions for several hours. And no matter how much they learn, even the slightest hint of anything new leads to a barrage of new questions. I'm surprised the MC knows how to BREATHE without being told how to do it.

pretty much the main character is an idiotic naive oblivious noob has no idea what video games or anything else is for that matter and has more plot armor and luck than any being in any novel ever and I am not exaggerating even the slightest bit pretty much think if you took a baby and aged it 20 years and then threw it into a VR video game while also giving it enough luck to rule the world and that's pretty much this novel in a nutshell.

Author, Well done! keep it Up!

This is the first novel that made me to create a review. It is realy amazing. Reading this slower story progression novel without nonsens filler chapters just to unnaturaly prolong the story is refreshing. There are still some things that can get better in my oppinion, but since the story is still in the beggining Author probably plans to add it over time.

Pros:
Nice slower story progression that is not boring at all.

More details on crafting(alchemy) not just, fight, get stronger, fight rutine.

Unique compared to other novels

you will read it in one breath

Cons:
Not much realy, short for now, especcialy with the slow progression this novel will shine brightly after 400+ maybe 500+ chapters

I am one of those readers that hates when there is a chapter from the point of side character instead of MC, that you dont care about, this is not an issue here cause everything is from MC perspective BUT! this meens side characters are shallow and you dont care about any at all.

Since is slow paced a bit more chapters per week would be great.

Suggestions:
Add few chapters with side characters as main BUT make them talk about the MC or do things for him. So it will not be just a filler chapter and it will be still about MC but it will help us get to know the character of side characters :)

Romance, this realy need slow progression romance with one or 2 females with a twist or tragedy. (I hope you already plan something like it to make story deeper)

Since he is alchemist maybe you can get To more details with herbs collecting too or make him build his own special herb garden that he can improve and care about, that will add so much envy with eldes and lots of content + world building.

I hope you like this review.

Grammar go brrrrrrrr
