The Only "Cultivation" Story Worth Reading  
by LazyReviewer
January 13th, 2023, 12:33am
Rating: 8.0  / 10.0
Now, it's possible there are other cultivation stories that are worth reading, but I've tried dozens and given up on all of them but this one. Why?

Because the cultivation in this story clearly gets its power up from outside sources. It requires expensive materials and extensive knowledge, which requires leaving the house and actually having an adventure.

Do you know how many, Chinese especially, cultivation novels and graphic novels allow the character to conveniently level up by only looking into themselves? It's possibly the worst (most frustrating, least entertaining) way to power up a character that was ever thought of.

But, again, this story requires the characters to go and have an adventure and risk their lives in order to power up. And it's quite the adventure, too. The world building gets to be expansive and interesting.

The characters are solid, too. They often have personalities that are at least two dimensional, which, for an action adventure, more than works well. Some are even more developed than that.

The only real weakness is either translation-based or a result of poor terminology: you'll many times have "legends" being used for non-legend ranked people in backstories, so things get a little confusing at times.
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
A legend-ranked demon beast awoke to wisdom, becoming a demon lord. Then hundreds of legend ranked masters attack it, die, and anger it enough to kill off most of the continent's civilization. But, the MC says he should be able to kill the demon lord once he becomes a legend-rank. There is clearly a contradiction here if we assume the terminology used is correct.


Outside of that, I can't say I always like how the MC acts, but I can't say I don't like him overall.

Worth checking out, and the art impoves greatly over time.

endless hiatus?

Rating: 7.0  / 10.0
Honestly TDG is kind of bit different than most cultivation novels (yes I read the novel first) though I saw manhua's pretty much faithful, given how much the author skips it's process and so you have what like a shonen series in overall. Honestly I find it fun and enjoying it actually, well until they start going out of tiny world and it scales up uncontrollably.

Anyway, it's on hiatus now so I had no whatsoever evaluating the whole series now. I have to admit however, it was quite a fun ride while it lasts. And if it is possible to see its end I woould love to.

Classic regressor story with endearing characters  
by Caileo
June 20th, 2022, 8:16pm
Rating: 9.0  / 10.0
The MC is a regressor who uses his past knowledge to power up himself and his friends while saving the world. The story is what you'd expect, but the execution is excellent, with endearing characters, badass MC, and many waifus.

To be honest, I Finished at first I wasn't expecting much since it's my first Manhua to read I was a spectacle but I pushed myself and gave it a shot, and oooh boy I read 300+ chapters in a couple of days and I want more this is everything I ever wanted the mc is smart cuz of course reincarnation which is something that I like and then the way ** SPOILER ALERT ** He trains his friends and takes advantage of future events and hidden secrets that other don't know of only in the future but he knows him this feeling of a smart mc dependable and actually really enjoying to read I suggest to give it a shot the world is so big in this its amazing.

I've read quite far into the novel chapters, and I have to say that the artist is carrying this series pretty hard. The amount of detail he adds to the characters is something you don't see often. Frankly, the novel sucks, especially later on. Its entire plot is basically just moving the goal post constantly. Calling this one an "instant gratification power fantasy" is only true in the early manhua chapters. After chapters 150+, pretty much everyone is stronger than him.

Why the hate?  
by MusicalHiro
April 9th, 2021, 10:17am
Rating: 10.0  / 10.0
Don't understand the hate but MC is sorta and sorta not OP, reincarnate with previous knowledge. He doesn't get OP THAT fast but a nice gradual speed. Story still has a lot to offer and its some of the better Chinese Manwha out there.

Please the art is good and like the characters, MC especially.

Trash power fantasy, but also stress-relieving reading material  
by HSuke

Rating: 7.0  / 10.0
This manhua is so poorly written ...

but it is also so addicting because it is a stress-free, instant-gratification, power fantasy.

i.e. It's trash we enjoy reading

Typical Mad Snail  
by LordZel
January 20th, 2020, 4:55am
Rating: 1.0  / 10.0
This story is basically identical to Rebirth of the Thief Who Roamed The World but he has gotten better at hiding his bad habits. For Mad Snail, expect endless ass pulls, endless plot holes, endless plot threads that go no where, endless people pointlessly praising the MC, endless contradictions and endlessly cringey romance and social interactions where even the love interest is just another puppet there to praise the MC for doing things that shouldn't even be praised. He also likes to endlessly repeat the same Chinese idioms but I didn't notice it as much here but I don't know if that's due to the translator leaving them out or because Mad Snail finally learned something.

I could review his older story and you'd have a hard time knowing I wasn't reviewing TDG. MC dies and is reborn into the past with future knowledge. Future knowledge continues to be useful even when it shouldn't. Side characters are completely one dimensional and regardless of whether they are ally or foe, they exist just to prop up and praise the MC. MC asspulls super powers whenever they are needed and frequently forgets they ever existed. World building only serves to create contradictions and plot holes as the story progresses and plot threads with no resolution continue to breed endlessly. All social interactions of the MC make him seem like a sociopath and everyone just feeds into his psychosis. His relationship with his underage future wiafu is super cringey and pedo and he treats her like his personal possession, since they are fated to be together. Friends are just tools to show off his magnanimity and how much stronger he is, while enemies just exist to praise him and be seemingly impossible hurdles that he easily steps on. After going to the past, he immediately starts finding the magical McGuffin (chapters or pages, pick your story) that will make him instantly super powered to the point that no one can contest him, until they can and he just asspulls new super powers. Often, said McGuffin is forgotten about, until suddenly it's important again and fully assembling it is a task that will suddenly become important only at the very end, when MC needs to officially become a God to fight the Last Big Bad. I haven't read the ending of TDG but I'm sure he gets stupidly injured near the end and has to enter some kind of recovery montage where he rapidly gains power again and finally gets the final chapter/page of his McGuffin and becomes God like he did in the Thief story.

Honestly, Rebirth of the Thief Who Roamed The World was probably the better read because it had an almost so-bad-its-good train wreck going. However, the MC really deserved to meet the same fate that sent him to the past to begin with, so the ending was exceedingly lackluster. It's obvious Mad Snail tried to hide his bad habits better with TDG but it just resulted in an even more bland and generic story. Also, he still ended up revealing his fetishes, even if he was slightly less blatant about it.

Edit: I forgot to mention but I have not read the novel for TDG and have no idea how accurate my predictions are and no idea if they qualify as actual spoilers, since they are a guess based off of reading Thief. I probably should mention I dropped Thief after chapter 925 because I read a spoiler summary about the asspull of him getting shot by a sniper (in spite of being able to dodge sniper bullets) and still survived. I would have been able to give mild praise to Mad Snail for the ending if he had let Nei Li, I mean Nei Yan, die from the sniper shot but he couldn't give the MC a fitting end and asspulled a magical recovery. I didn't bother to read the spoiler summary for the final chapters, so I don't know if he really became God or whatever but it's the prediction I made somewhere around the time he started collecting chapters and felt was written in stone a few hundred chapters later when an actual quest to become a god was introduced on top of him becoming Pope or whatever after finishing the book. It's possible Mad Snail had completely forgotten about the quest like so many others. Honestly, he doesn't need the official title of God because he already had broke OP powers long before then.

interesting ... but unfortunately..........

Rating: N/A
if you read carefully, the story is very interesting ... but unfortunately there is something that can be said "very less" ... the main character is impressed only focus on the family of the woman he loves ... but does not care about his own family ... I think the author is less observant here. on one hand he remembers his father's sacrifice before ... but on the other hand ... he is even more busy teaching the family of his future father-in-law and never teaching his family (his own sister not taught only helped by being given strength, that's all) ... is a miracle (except interfering with the story's author ) if later his family arrived there would be survivors except, from his girl family ...
