Two opposite reviews might be a bit confusing, here's my two cents.I think it's worth a read. This story is a bit different. There's no s*upid info dump in the first chapter like there usually is in these stories. I also like how MC doesn't go from chapter to chapter making a new enemy EVERY SINGLE TIME. There's time for relaxation here. I could actually imagine a person living in that world (As opposed to say Martial God Asura, where there's such a huge amount of insane psychopaths that if I ever ended up living there I'd su*cide right the f*ck out). There's also a good bit of humor, and that's always appreciated.The MC himself is incredibly entertaining to read about. He's shameless as hell, but he has basic morals. He's strong, but not s*upidly OP.Not saying it's all good though. It has a lot of silly xianxia story tropes. Side characters are either yes men for the MC, by standers who like to gawk, and enemies. There's no enemy we can empathize with. No variation in the personalities of MCs underlings. One of them is described as kind of s*upid, but I honestly could not tell how he was in any way different from the rest of them. I also see a lot of potential for the story to go to sh*t in a hundred chapters. MC is gonna get tested for a spirit root to join an "Immortal Sect". I really hope it doesn't turn into an endless pit of arrogant young masters, douchebag deacons, and evil grand elders, but I see a lot of potential for it to do that. I'm also wary of the trope where MC is constantly playing catch up. He'll leave the mortal world and join the immortals, then he'll go the heavenly world, then the god world!. Yuck.All in all, I'd give it a try.
