The first 150 chapters were really good, but from there things started to go downhill. For example the translation quality was deteriorating, many times I couldn't understand if a person was a male or female cuz sometimes he/she was addressed as a 'he' and later down the chapter as a 'she'.... Even the chapter that describe the world background wasn't understandable as many areas were not properly described or their locations... Another major issue in this novel was that the author after chapter 200 started to make the MC's senior brothers or other powerful cultivators as the MC side characters, many times the MC did certain things in front of powerful seniors in his sect that weren't under his responsibility or authority to do, and no one said anything (like taking out captives they caught in a major war, without explaining anything to anyone). Even many things and issues about the MC cultivation method (he uses the Liquor Fire Spiritual Qi cultivation method he stole from a major sect, yet no one noticed his unique qi at all...) or his treasures (no matter what, people would still be interested in knowing where he got such a high level treasure...), they didn't ask him anything about them! Which is completely illogical! There are many small problems like this throughout the novel (for example there wasn't any explanation about the cultivation system levels or the ranking of various treasures, only while reading further one can deduce the levels based on the advancement of the MC, it was as if the author thought we all already knew what was in his mind and should know the cultivation levels already...) I know all these things may seem small but when they're added up to one another they start to make this novel uninteresting as I became less invested in it due to all the illogical things happening... And lastly, as I reached chapter 700 it became more and more clear that if one doesn't understand Chinese Mythology then reading this novel is seriously hard... The author many times mentioned many things, events or people from Chinese Mythology (which I honestly couldn't understand much) and it was quite a bummer. Eventually the more I read the more I understood that it wasn't just the author fault for making this novel turn bad, but also the fault lay in the translation that was getting worse and worse and making this novel progressively illogical and confusing! Eventually it's all came up to chapter 904 where it was plain obvious that the last 10 chapters in this novel were very rushed and the ending wasn't satisfying at all, leaving a bitter taste in the mouth. So I give a 4 star review not cuz it was an excellent novel, but because I can say I still somewhat enjoyed reading it.
