It's a good story the first 600-800 chapters, then became repetitive. There is no harem, MC has several women fall for him but he only has cultivation in his eyes and is very sad for those women.
Only two women got the heart of MC, the first one is of his early years and the second one was kind of forced of her, but when the MC falls, he became very serious for her.
I'm at chapter 1309 and, although I like the story and still think is interesting, I feel frustrated with the development because there are several interesting things that MC got over time, and seems he will develop those things, but quickly got forgoten in his chaos space.
The tittle is not precise, MC became a powerful alchemist, but it is mostly only mentioned, there is not a deep development on alchemist and it is not even mentioned in detail the rare spiritual plants he got for alchemist, mainly mentioned that he got a rare plant and store it in the chaos space and that is it. Kind of frustrating.
MC has a several kind of powerful treasures in plants, demonic beasts, spiritual insects, dragons, different spiritual kind of powers, swords, puppets, but almost all of these are barely detailed, just mentioned and then forgoten.
The one thing I hate of MC is that over the time he got several completely loyal minions, the last ones trully powerful minions and completely loyal to MC, but he discarded them instead of raised them as his own force.
Other thing I hate of MC is that he is very impulsive and many times acts before think, puting him in danger. MC is very cautious with dangerous things, but when he gets a new treasure he is eager to try it without put enought caution on it.
A little spoiler:
The world MC was born is only one secluded world that has a barrier blocking all living things to leave. Normally it is enought to achieve a certain level to leave the world and explore other worlds, but the barrier block all cultivators to leave. That world is the most interesting one in the way it is explained, because the arcs in that world are intertwined in the story and something that happens in the start of the story takes influence later in the story.
After MC leaves that world, the story became very loose. MC travels over several worlds but when his bussiness over he leaves and start another adventure in another world and we will never got to know again anything of the previous world, making it seems that you can read those arcs separately or even skip it and can still keep with the story, the only constant is that MC increases his cultivation but that is it.


I finished reading all the translated chapters. It doesn't take long, 2 days reading fast, 5-7 days taking your time.
I liked the story, but I wish it had more...
The premise is that the MC can copy other skills, but it is not deeply explored it. The MC gains a lot of skills, but most of them he gained it behind the scenes (in a time skip of 4 years) and we didn't get to know the process of gaining them... and that is what I wanted to see XD
Author likes to tease the readers. The story announces that something is gonna happen, in example, a new rare skill is gonna be seen, but then he drags and drags that event as far as he can with side characters that are not that relevant.
I wanted to see a completely new world full of skills, with a MC risking his life to copy all ind of rare skills (like a cultivation novel), but I found a more romance/mistery oriented story where gaining skills is secondary -.-

Seems this is an adaptation from a chinese novel: https://www.xbiquge.cc/book/19847/

It doesn't turn into an ecchi but there are a bunch of women going after him but he only returns 2 of their feelings and when he does he is very devoted and doesn't just ignore them (like most ecchis where the mc just likes them for body). And when he does like them he like LOVES them yk? Sorry if this just made it more confuzzling.

It doesn't turn ecchi in the entire novel. In fact, I can recall MC had sex only once, or perhaps twice in a span of almost 10k years. The dude is totally devoted to cultivation living in caves and doesn't care on anything else. I stopped reading at chapter 1644 and wait for the novel to advance. The last I can recall is that he was in the process to save his second wife.
Btw, I think the novel is writted by different authors and the first author retired after MC exits his original world. That may be the reason the novel gives a vibe of separation between every arc where the items or people he met before will never appear in further arcs.

If you want to continue reading the novel, manga chapter 19 matches novel chapter 34:

This has nothing to do with the manhua, but can help to imagine the ambience Jing Yiren created with the drums:

Thanks a lot for the translation! (≧∀≦)
I can't help but be suspicious about MC is so stupid because she is a woman. It feels intentional, like the most exaggerated stereotypical airhead woman that could be.
I don't think so. Infact, theres alot more people like her in reality as there's badass women. I think the artist especially wanted to make her to 'become' badass rather than being a badass right from the start. (●'◡'●)
