I Shall Be Everlasting In the World of ImmortalsI Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals

我在修仙界万古长青

did the author dropped the novel? no updates since 2024-06-17

Okay, I'm a bit confused since `I Shall Be Everlasting In the World of Immortals` has 500+ chapters written but `Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family` has 600+ so which one came first? and who is copying who?

I'm wondering if I'll ever add a forum to this sait? It's pretty uncomfortable without him.By the way, the Russian version of the site has it.

It's good at first then seems too bland that I lost interest afterwards... Shame

The story is about a man living his 3rd life in the cultivation world. Having learned and formed his view of this world, he set himself a goal for this life. Reaching the Yuan Yin level.
In this life, he has poor talent and was not accepted into the sect, and therefore he decided to develop the longevity technique. His path is slow and steady development, avoiding trouble as much as possible.
In two lives, he realized how easy it is to lose life and freedom in the world of cultivation, and therefore all his actions are driven by reason and a clear goal. He will never show all his strength to the public, but at the same time he will not expose himself as complete trash who is easily offended. The way he shows himself to the world is that he is a tenacious cultivator with poor talent but enough value to be useful without being a threat or prey.
The world around him lives and does not revolve around him alone; events occur regardless of his intervention or presence, but he, to the best of his ability, can influence some of them. Or run away if it could be dangerous for him and have no benefit. The main character is not an idiot, not extremely self-confident, he rather truly embodies a person who has lived long enough in the cultivation world. His actions are not driven by hormones or emotions, but rather by calculation and understanding. I’ll emphasize once again that the world around him is not stupid, other cultivators understand the meaning of opportunities and the fact that they can be taken away. There will be no such thing that everyone silently admires and envy. If they think you have something they need and can take it away, they will do it.
Regarding the harem, the main character is not a magnet for anything and everything beautiful, and he does not start a full-fledged relationship. His goal is the main thing, and the girls on his way only act as temporary companions, which he honestly informs them about. He does not start a family and children, because he understands that this will burden him. In general, he is moderately cruel, but only for logical purposes. He is ready to help his friends, but only to a limited extent, he does not carry them on himself and does not trust them unconditionally, because they know only a little more about him than others know.

Does the api thing on this site directly translate from the Chinese text or just edit the MTL. Also, what service is used for the MTL.

Chapter 255, and I’m dropping this novel. The story starts with a leisurely outlook on cultivation, hiding your strength and biding your time, and holding yourself as the number one priority.

The issue here is that the novel seemed to have an identity crisis early on. The MC didn’t know what he was or what his cheats do; we are only told he can reincarnate. So far, in the 255 chapters I’ve read, he didn’t reincarnate at all. His biggest “cheat” is that he kept his previous lives’ memories, allowing him to breeze through cultivation unhindered. To balance this, the author throws in a cultivation technique that slows down the MC’s progress to a CRAWL, and I’m not even exaggerating here.

The MC is compensated by being given intelligence in talisman-making, alchemy, and other skills, but essentially, the novel consists of the MC waiting and us waiting for the author to throw a bone to move the plot. Unfortunately, I’m a sucker for the MC’s template, but despite my bias, 250 chapters of the same rinsed and repeated events were too much for me.

Another translator that thinks too highly of themselves creating a patron for MTL proofreading. Here's a ChatGPT 4o prompt to get better or the same translation using the MTL we've here:

Proofread and edit the following chapter from a Chinese Xianxia novel, your job is to fix the bad translation as much as you can without affecting the context, flow, or the dialogue, Chinese cultural norms, from seniority greetings, innuendos to proverbs that are there must be preserved. Even for the dialogues and paragraphs fix awkward wording, phrasing, and translated terms that are translated too literally and fix Inconsistent POV. You must strive for a pure reading experience that conveys the author's intent perfectly. Target badly translated lines and fix them if encountered. They're usually lines that do not make sense or are just awkward. Chinese female or male names must be gendered properly, they must be followed by their appropriate pronouns. You must identify when characters speak in 3rd person and condition it appropriately, such as "my nephew" when a character is speaking about themselves to mean "your nephew," and so on. You must identify them and condition them, you will do so by analysing the dialogue and compare it to the context to determine if the first few words are 3rd person description of themselves, such as my concubine, my nephew, my sister etc. When the characters are speaking about themselves, but due to bad translation it gets lost. Most importantly you must fix badly translated cultivation realms names:

I read 400+ chapters. Good deal.
