The translation quality is trash, see e.g. “Great Chu just develop period if this thing is exposed, will lead to the people’s hearts not stable, is to the emperor will never be soft.”

If their authors were getting even ten percent of the money Webnovel pulls in with their ridiculous prices, good authors would all flock to the platform. Since good authors are rare on here, it’s pretty clear this isn’t an attractive setup.

It’s weird to me how you’re acting like they didn’t *already* say they’re not going to pay for webnovel because the service isn’t worth it to them. You’re the one who chose to argue with them, then you tell them to do what they already said they will do?

The premise is interesting, but the cultivation system is not ever fleshed out, the characters are all annoying, and the translation quality hits the pits after around 45 chapters. Not worth getting into.

It’s nothing special: the MC transmigrates into the body of a former genius who was crippled and sent into seclusion to guard the sect’s tomb area as punishment, and finds his golden finger is maximum level comprehension. So, he hides away and learns powerful techniques from the tombs, unbeknownst to the rest of the sect. Eventually he saves the sect in secret, blah blah. Very generic, but the writing is good enough to pass time. Unfortunately, around chapter 45 the translation becomes low quality and either the translators skip entire important scenes or the author does. Either way, chapters 45 and 46 are both terrible, so you know that the WebNovel effect has struck (passable initial translations, then terrible MTL once you they think you’re hooked so they can save their efforts to go hook people on other novels, and finish the translation of this one using MTL), and it’s not worth reading past that point.
