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.

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.

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

I'm still stuck trying to remember all the different cultivation stages. That's a bigger challenge than the arc order. The names blend together after a while. I think the reading order is the least of your concerns if you're embarking on this.

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.

It's a pyramid scheme of violence. To cultivate, you need resources (pills, stones, herbs). Those are controlled by sects and clans. To get them, you have to prove your worth through competition, which usually means fighting others. The stronger you get, the better resources you can access, but the more enemies you make. The entire system is designed to create conflict. Peaceful hermits who just meditate in a cave for a thousand years are rare; most are forced into the endless churn of mortal realms, spirit realms, and heavenly realms.
Chu Feng's advantage is that he's often the wild card that disrupts the local resource monopoly. He'll find a secret garden everyone missed or defeat the young master of a clan and take their spoils. The 'system' is therefore an economic and social structure as much as a mystical one. Your cultivation level is your social credit score, your military rank, and your bank balance all rolled into one.

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.

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.

Man, the Sima Clan really had a moment, didn't they? In the Holy Land arc, they felt like this untouchable, scheming giant. It was satisfying to see their schemes unravel. But that's the pattern—every dominant clan gets a turn in the villain spotlight before being surpassed. The Zhou Heavenly Clan later fills a similar role as a seemingly insurmountable enemy force. The author is great at making you feel the weight of these ancient institutions, only to have Chu Feng break them over his knee.

Its progression is a testament to the demand for endless content in this genre. Readers don't want it to end, and the author obliges. To read it, you have to accept that you'll never be 'caught up.' You'll always be chasing the next chapter. That's the business model. Find it on any platform that serializes web novels; they all host it because it drives daily traffic.
