Its interesting,
the art and premise is interesting, the plot has interesting points.
it just that after 300 chapters, the MC being kinda repetitive and I have lost the interest of it.

Good serie, among the manhua, this is one of the best execution, mangadex is just behind updating, the serie is still go strong on other sites, if you into system an cultivate, this one is highly recommend, plot/art: 8.5/10.
Plot can be abit higher if author dont decide to sometime just fck up the drama and put in some chinese cliche, still a good overall serie

That there's no solid and consistent translation for this is so sad, same shit like with "I'm an Evil God / Way to Be the Evil Emperor". Two great works with translations that are so over the place it ruins the work.
I would honestly pay money to read them properly and consistently translated... if only there would be an official translation :(
and no, the manhaus and other half hearted translator trash is not proper translation. It's always decent at the beginning and then after a hundred chapters or sooner it just starts dipping in quality and never stops.

This is very nice, but I do resent the missing chapters. I get that it’s to get me to visit your website, but I have yet to see a translator website that isn’t infested with popups specifically designed to brick a mobile device.

I don’t suppose the translation situation has changed any has it? Translation gets so bad it is beyond comprehension in places. Typesetting is unbearably bad in some chapters too.

I've read 593 chapters of this so far...
I think that's enough for me to leave a review on MangaDex.

In the simplest terms:
This looks boring from the surface but is actually quite fun with a unique execution of an interesting premise. But after the first few hundred chapters the formula gets repetitive but...
I'd say this is like 80% intentional aura farming, 65-75% attractive women, 50% unpredictably funny, 10% "woah woah that's actually interesting what could it mean for what we know?" and 75% stuff taken from typical cultivation manhua with some overlap.

What got me hooked was this one being done quite differently from others with what I think is a main character that does some unique things while still looking like the rest. (Trust me)
What I really like is the humour. There's a lot funny stuff... and breasts, thighs and... a lot of good female character designs.
Oh there's so much stuff!

I really like Lu Chaoge because of the many things he does. This has a few similarities to Eminence in Shadow. Using a wind technique to farm aura for no reason (it's funny when pointed out), interactions with his sister and disciples, he's kind of a jerk a jerk sometimes, dude got so deluded into thinking he's the main character that he became one. He's kinda unpredictably funny but also gets serious for certain situations. He actually does struggle with later bosses.

It's mostly him kinda cheating using game mechanics, trying to look cool in front of everyone, everyone thinking he's the most handsome and talented person in the world (somehow everyone gets on the same wavelength for that), then he completes a mission from the system to progress the story (which has a literal progress bar) etc.

It actually plays into a lot some tropes but also does some things a little differently. Like making human players gang up on a boss to tire them out and also scaring the shit out of them cause the players keep respawning, the MC's personality being infectious.

Some spoilers:
Yes Chaoge and Xinyan get married and bang (not sure in which order) and it doesn't take forever.
No other actual romances. No harem.
The Mo sect might have some history.
The big bad guy is supposedly the leader of the sword sect.
The Emperor Qing guy idk, he saved the world 10,000 years ago. He's also a demonic cultivator but not evil.
That dead pink spirit ancestor on that grave might be important in case it wasn't obvious. But it takes forever.
Yeah there's some guy who can just warp reality and do whatever and he's probably behind the whole game becoming a reality thing.

I might update this and leave a proper review later. My description might've sounded mostly negative and I do have some complaints but I still read this far.
You might like the first few tens of chapters but you might also think it's slop. But that's what you're in for.
It's kinda like brainrot: it can be super fun to have it but also feels weird after a while.

The pacing feels fast but is kinda slow.

Hopefully it will be over in 100 chapters or less...
