As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills

The MC knows how to be patient and bide his time. The story is slightly slower paced but I actually enjoy it. The pace is perfect in my opinion, and I can see this novel making it up there with the known classics. Its worth reading, give it a try!

Raw : 长生不死的我只练禁术 .................

At the beginning, you think that this is a novel about a smart protagonist. But it is not!. The main character is a kind, ordinary Chinese beta male. Everything happens after chapter 20. The translator folded his handkerchief after chapter 19 .. The MTL of this novel is normal.

It was really good until the mc suddenly just gets saint level (the stongest cultivation state in this book) techniques, relics, treasures in succesion after he established his foundation :(. Before that he has to make do with subpar, forbidden techniques and bide his time against his enemies. It was way more interesting back then.

Trash the level of writing is bad the author doesnt know how to make the novel exiting too much filler

Honestly i feel a bit guilty in rating it 2 stars. For 200 or so chapters this novel is worthy 4.5 stars (I consider 5 stars a masterpice), but starting from chapter 300 something onwards its quality goes down to the point that around chapter 400 it is absolute trash. It is obvious how the author couldn't sustain the required chapter output and the quality of the novel suffered dramatically. The webnovel system, where quantity matter more than quality, reaped another victim.

Started off good. Didn't stay good.

Advice "At least be selfish for your own sake, if it's advantageous for the sake of strength then do "beneficial" things like fawning over the young master/princess. if it's just an ordinary person do you want to be "robinhood" come on be selfish for yourself. good but if you do it many times it might look "disgusting".

4/5 + until Black Rock Ruins, then the quality drops real fast. The translation is good but there are issues with pronouns in most of the chaps, but it was still okay. The story was progressing nicely and everything was good. But during Black Rock Ruins, everything goes downhill, the translation goes off, there is even no mention of who the pronoun is denoting. Then there is a continuous series of face slapping moments. MC defeats one guy whom everyone thinks he can't defeat and persuades him to step back. then another guy comes and same thing keeps on repeating. Dropping the novel now. Might resume it if it gets completed.

All good and amazing at mortal world arc but all thing got hectic once MC went to immortal civilization. The story got more incoherent with previous chapters. This kept happening for hundreds of chapters. No explaining on how and what got him on some situation that you have to backtrack some chapters still confusing how they connects to ongoing storyline. Its still worth reading mortal world arc for those who are interested if they have no other novel to read they find interesting

Inconsistent with failed logic from the very start. It’s not as horrendous as other novels but it’s still terrible

So far we only see a low martial arts world with body forging, no so called forbidden skills as of yet, I thought this was gonna be another stupid fast paced novel because of the title but no, the mc is kinda stupid sometimes but most of the time he's ok.

The story started off great, where mc hid himself to slowly cultivate. He would use forbidden techniques to power up faster at a cost of damaging his body. But since he has an immortal body, he would heal up and just get stronger. This was going great because the whole premise of the novel was based on mc hiding and cultivating, then doing some major thing before hiding again. But this all suddenly changed around chapter 275 or so when mc disguised himself as different people and just when forbidden ground hunting, one after another to level up. It then turned to any other cliche cultivation novel out there. Kill this person, kill that, look for treasure, rinse and repeat. This could have been so much better if the author stuck to the original formula instead of deviating to a fighting/treasure hunting fest.
