Starts off good but then in later arcs the translation turns to complete garbage and the story becomes incomprehensible. Events occur offscreen and are referenced casually, characters appear and disappear, as do items, skills and enemies. If you've read many webnovel to manhua adaptions you should be familiar with all these traits of shitty adaptions. Shame, the initial story was interesting.
I don't understand why they are adapting these +1000 chapter webnovels (this one has +2000 holy cow), I mean if they decide to give us a shot of the story overall, it will be a good thing. But to keep the serialization dragging for years with short weekly chapters... meh. I don't knew how many years it would take to catch to the novel even if the novel goes in a loooooooong hiatus.

@mobrine
Assuming a consistent one per week, fifty two in a year, a 2000 chapter adaptation would be around 38 and a half years till complete. Obviously, that timeframe goes up when you get more/ split chapters, hiatus (hiati?) of the artist/author, seasons, tl group drops etc. etc.
Don't know how that factors to catching the novel up, but, honestly, I had no idea that that's the sort of timescale it has. Thankyou for saving me that hassle.
Sincerely, thankyou.

@YouSuckDiddleyUck this one is updating twice a weak, so if you take into your calculation that they rarely skip a chapter in the novel, and sometimes a manhua chapter can be sometimes half a one of a novel or sometimes 2 chapters if they skip a lot of details, that means it will take them aprox 13 to 14 years to catch up to the current chapter where novel is (this is more than a generous estimation, real figure can reach 20 years).
They really should stop doing this... If you knew "Battle through heavens", a manhua that started in 2012 (novel has about 1700 chapters). They did take 9 years to reach chapter 750-ish in novel. So that means they will need another 12/13 years to wrap it up if we are being generous....
This is not to make them sound bad. There have been some great efforts in some other manhuas to reach novel asap like in "Martial peak", they are doing a daily update lately (Yes daily update with fully colored panels), and they will be able to catch up to novel in a couple of years if they continue doing this regularly or decide to make a daily update altogether.
Edit: after reading your comment, I really need to revise myself, whether I'll be reading these kinds of projects. I currently have about 50 manhua's with same pattern of this one. I should probably get myself a life

A bit of a slow and confusing start, turns into a pretty detailed, enjoyable and deep story. Overall I really enjoyed the first ~130 chapters. The story was good and characters decent. Maybe a bit too many info dumps at times, though even those weren't that poorly done. Translation quality was also excellent.
Then after those 130 chapters, the comic itself stays great. The translation quality though... The overall quality drops quite a bit. Moreover, all names(of characters and cities) and terminology is changed, which is very confusing. Imo, still legible, but the translation really takes away from the experience of reading this.
Then at roughly chapter 210, we get yet another translation team. Or, maybe I should: a machine translation. Because that's pretty much what the quality boils down to. imo not very legible and just not recommended. Big disappointment
I really hope a decent translation team picks this up sometime in the future.

Currently at chapter 340 with machine/poor translation. As already commented "not very legible". Several [key] points do not make sense, and sometimes you can figure out the meaning from before/after scenes, but some is just lost.
I like this weird mix of cultivation/wuxia/martial arts with scifi/future/space and cannot help wanting more with these genres. Any suggestions?
Nano Machine (currently chapter 38) is not heavy enough on the scifi genre.
Trinity Wonder (complete, manhwa) fits the genre, but the "vibe" is totally different.
