It starts a little rough gets better for a short while, then turns into the worst exposition fest, description binge I've ever read. What's most annoying is the comedy tag. There's maybe 10-15 chapters around chapter 30that can be called mildly amusing and that's it. Tom Clancy novels have more laughs than this.The plot also veers heavily away from the initial premise of a mercenary doctor that overcharges (nahhh could never happen) into a run of the mill and rather boring soap.The final killer for me was around ch 70 when the descriptions started to repeat verbatim and endlessly. I really didn't want the details of a realm of cultivation 20 times, or need to hear that the medical cultivators were nowhere near as combat effective as the sword cultivators.
