From what I've gathered over the years, the fan translation scene for that series is a real patchwork.

Check if your local library offers access to digital platforms like Hoopla. Sometimes these long web novels get compiled into e-book volumes. It’s a long shot, but worth a look for a legal, ad-free start. Failing that, the internet is your oyster. The novel’s first arc has a clear three-act structure: fall from grace, training montage, triumphant return. It’s satisfying in a primal way. Later, the structure dissolves into an endless series of higher realms and new enemies.

Here's a hot take: the best order is to read a detailed summary of the first 2000 chapters, then start reading from chapter 2001. You'll skip the most repetitive part, understand the core premise and characters, and join the story when the world might have gotten a bit more complex (debatably). It's blasphemy to purists, but it's a legitimate time-saving strategy for a story this long.

Man, remembering my read-through of MGA… what a trip. I did it all on Wuxiaworld. Went the subscription route because I have no self-control and needed to binge. It was worth every penny for the sheer volume of content. The site never gave me technical trouble. Sometimes their servers might hiccup during peak times, but it’s rare. The translation, especially in the later parts, is coherent and maintains the spirit of the story, even if some poetic Chinese elements are hard to convey. That’s the best you can hope for. I’d strongly advise against any ‘free novel’ sites. They’re parasites on the translation community. Wuxiaworld makes the process simple: sign up, choose your payment model, read. It’s as legal as buying an ebook from a major retailer.

Ever notice how on some aggregators, the page will automatically redirect or open new tabs when you try to click 'next chapter'? Drives me insane. Wuxiaworld doesn't do that. A click takes you to the next chapter. It's a simple, respectful user experience. After reading a few hundred chapters, those little moments of friction on bad sites add up to a lot of wasted time and frustration.

I'm just sitting here remembering the chaos of the great novel migration a few years back, when licenses got pulled from fan sites. Good times. Now everything's consolidated. Webnovel is your one-stop shop for this, legally speaking. The UI is cluttered with offers, but the reading experience itself is decent.
They also have a privilege subscription that might be worth it if you plow through chapters like crazy. Do the math based on your reading speed.

For a different angle, start by reading some of the fan discussions or memes about the series. Understanding the communal jokes about Chu Feng's insanity, the endless 'ancestors' showing up, and the meme of 'you court death!' actually enriched my reading experience. It framed the absurdity as part of the fun. Then, when you start chapter one, you're in on the joke. You're not reading it with the expectation of a tight narrative, but as a participant in a shared cultural experience of glorious, repetitive chaos.

Does anyone else feel like the middle section (the Eastern Sea Region through the Holy Land) is the strongest? The world feels expansive but not yet completely absurd. The arc order in that stretch feels more purposeful, with the Four Symbols Academy, the Immortal Execution Archipelago conflict, and the journey to the Holy Land having clearer stakes. I'd say power through the very beginning to get there, and savor that middle portion. The order within it is still just chapter-by-chapter, but the quality is more consistent.

The legal access point is Webnovel. I'd frame it as a trade-off. You get a reliable, ad-free (mostly) reading experience and the knowledge you're supporting the ecosystem. In return, you accept a monetization model that makes a 5000+ chapter novel a significant financial investment if you want to read it quickly.
For a series like this, I treat it like a mobile game. I don't spend money to rush. I just take the free daily login rewards and read slowly. It makes the journey last years, which somehow feels appropriate for a cultivation story about an immortal journey.
