Half-Tried Deity

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Pick up a cheap master,

Cultivate ultimate teachings,

Steal a fox to be your pet,

Seduce a demon to be your husband.

Traveling through time and space is not scary, the only thing to fear is a lack of culture.

They all say that the road of cultivation is long; the best road to walk is the road that is most suitable for yourself.

That’s just a lie!

We traveled through time and space, we will walk other people’s path so that they have no path to walk.

There’s nothing to worry about if you can’t get tried.

We can pass some else’s trial and become our own deity.

I regret picking this up because I LOVE IT TOO MUCH BUT IT WON'T UPDATE. Why must you do this to me...

Anyways, it really is a very good novel, with a shameless and interesting female lead. Out of all of the leads that I've read about, this might be my favorite. So far there are only 7 chapters, but the beginning is so unique and it draws you in in such a way that makes you yearn for more.

A story about a certain female who time travelled, with no hair at all (it means she is bald?). Anyway, it's still too early to say that its good, with only a few chapters, but so far, its pretty funny to read how she is so shameless.

A lot of novels have the 'shameless protagonist' tag and I've slowly adapted to a new definition of 'shameless', but this MC really brought back the dictionary. com definition. She is shameless. Hilariously so, also I have been flabbergasted at her unbelievable shamelessness multiple times.

I now understand the title "Half-Tried Deity", it's because the MC is lazy and only half-tried with her cultivation. The character buffs allow her to grow fast with minimum effort, so she can maintain a half-tried persona.

She's dangerous, I've thought this a lot while reading. She... more>> doesn't have any common sense a cultivator should have and nearly kills herself from her lack of knowledge to which she survives due to her god-like luck. She also has a tremendous troublemaking personality, she claims that she won't start fights but let's be honest, even if she doesn't 'start it' she at least did something that caused it. She also bravely harasses/bullies people stronger than her because she knows they can't retaliate... Haha, shameless.

The plot armor is like Santa Claus, passing out presents whenever the MC needs help, or whenever she shakes down a Junior Nephew/Senior Uncle. She is quite literally a menace. The carnivorous her finds the rare spirit beasts in her sect and clips a tail, snaps a leg, pulls off a wing... she harvests a portion and cooks it. Honestly, the only reason she hasn't been exiled from the sect is because of her master's position, she is a walking natural disaster that the Juniors and Elders avoid, since they can't do anything about her-> they at least don't want to become her prey.

The novel takes a few chapters to pull you in, I got hooked on chapter 8. The translation by Creative Novels is clean and fun to read, so hang in there! This is definitely an amusing story! There isn't much world-building, this isn't that kind of novel. But it's an easy to follow plotline and fun to read... also properly shameless lmao.

Character spoilers, nothing extreme that makes the novel boring, just names to look for; ML, FL.

Spoiler

The MC/FL is Qi Huan, she'll show up at the very end of the first chapter. And yes, she starts with no hair at all, completely bald. Throughout the chapters it'll be growing back, at ch 31 she has short hair, so the author is keeping us updated.

The ML... So far it's looking like *beep*, he is definitely my favorite and hahaaha, I love him. Honestly, it's not too confusing, just find the handsome sexy character and BAM there he is. Spoiling his name would just ruin the fun, and I am someone who enjoys spoilers.

Just so you know she stops her lecherous thoughts... never actually? Well, she stops her blatantly drooling behavior in the early chapters.

A very nice novel that is incomplete. Seriously, this novel is NOT completed but is somehow tagged as 'complete' by the author. I'm so confused now.. like why author, why?

The novel has a unique story (which I honestly don't remember all the details as it's been a long time since I read it. I only now suddenly decided to write a review as no proper review was available on NU..), the execution is decently done, and the supposed ending is weird af. I loved the comedic moments. Many of them... more>> were actually funny.

The first 170 chapters are absolutely great. Definitely one of my all time favorites. I feel like the author was planning to end the novel at chapter 170 but he suddenly decided to continue reading because why not?

Anyway, after that we basically see a gignatic time skip, and boom! Now the whole story is gone somewhere else. Not bad, but very different and

Spoiler

MC loses all her past powers.

I thought she would again starts cultivating and try to take her old powers back but apparently not. She is somehow 'incapable' of even trying to get some of them back. I don't remember all the details as it's been a long time since I last read it but ig the author realized MC's old powers were too amazing so they decided to annoy tf out of the readers by making MC not taking any of her past powers back (other than her power to control lightning).

I think the reasoning was along the lines that 'the learning manual of those methods were destroyed so they can no longer be cultivated' or some crap like that, which makes no sense considering MC has already memorized most of those cultivation methods... anyway

[collapse]

A bunch of stuff then happens, and we finally get to the climax of the story's second arc (second arc: the story after chapter 170) and.... well that't it. The novel ends and there is no result to the final climax fight, sorry.

Spoiler

The MC and the main villian realize they can't defeat each other. The main villian traps all of MC's old friends/master/sect members inside a mini-world and kidnaps them. MC watches as the main villian goes away with his 'mini-world', taking away her master and old sect members. She realizes she is not able to defeat the villlian because she has lost all her past powers and she has no way of taking them back. The villian also realizes he can't defeat MC because if he pushes her too far she might call upon the 4 divine beasts. But MC never call upon them and we don't see any final fight. They then decide to go their own way without fighting each other (while MC's friends are still trapped inside the villian's world).

[collapse]

And that's the end of the story. No one wins, no one loses.

Spoiler

If we ignore the fact that MC will never see her friends and master again... but it did look like she's planning to become stronger and take them back, which we will never see as the novel is apparently 'completed'.

[collapse]

Nothing happens to end the story, literally nothing. We see no conclusion to any of the key events in the second arc. Probably the worst ending of any novel I've read in my life (because there is no 'ending' here to begin with)

I'm just confused. Was the author planning to write some sequel to this novel and never did? Did s/he just get bored and decide to end the story in the most random way possible? Or is this a very badly done attempt at some sort of 'open ending'?

Anyway, the initial 170 chapters were pretty good and that arc had a proper ending to it. I'm just gonna pretend everything after that was the author's fever dream.

Overall, I do recommend reading this novel as long as you are fine with the open ending. The story itself is definitely interesting and worth it. <<less

It's decent. But I can't relate with the MC or any of the characters at all. Maybe it's because of the translation...? It fell flat to me and I just can't find myself immersed in the story. There's little to no emotional conflict in MC's inner monologue. Not even from the fact she got tossed to an entirely different world when she was just living fine in the modern world. She smooth-sailed through it, she didn't suffer much, little to no emotional development. Even if there's a slight development, I... more>> missed what incited that development. The humor also fell flat to me and I'm a sucker for cheap humors.

Overall rating is 3.5 I round it down to 3 since this got a high rating. <<less

This was a good CN fantasy/cultivation novel. The female lead is quirky, a little s*upid but smart at the right times, and he OP isn't disgustingly OP. The story develops well and is interesting. The romance isn't r*pey and for once I don't find myself rooting for the 2nd ML. Obviously, there are ways it could have improved, but the positives far out way the negatives. I would love to read more CN fantasy/cultivation novels like this!

A total waste of time.

I would say it was interesting and funny at the beginning but it became annoying very soon. The FL is dumb and has a VERY ANNOYING CHARACTER. I don't know what the author planned when she wrote her character. One moment the author makes it seem that the FL is very cunning and actually knows what she's doing but then it seems that she's still dumb. There is no character development of the Fl. Even after 1 thousand years of living.

One time one of the shifu... more>> (teacher) / elder of her (FL) sect died because of Fl. (Though he was brought back by a miracle pill. But it still didn't changed her (FL) character. And a lot of things are unexplained. Like after 20 years or so in her cultivation world there was a time skip and jumped to 800 years later. And she ascended. Nothing was explained how or what happened. How she cultivated in the mortal world....... I mean it's a xinxia story I thought you are supposed to write about it. And the FL had no wish to learn anything. After 1 thousand years she was still illiterate. And she said again and again to herself that she's only doing cultivation because she wants to live long a bit. I mean what's point if she doesn't even wants to learn anything but also does cultivation to live long. And even when the author wrote about the tid bits progress of the FL in cultivation, it was really unexplained and blurry.

And I don't even know how she got her shifu as her shifu. Because later it was shown that her shifu Xu Kong Zi was very cleaver and liked to decisive others. Even his fighting style was decisive. But he got tricked by the Fl. And it was fine if the trick was somewhat believable. It was totally transparent and fake.

There was hardly any mention of how FL took revenge on 2 other sects in the mortal world. I mean it's a xinxia story and the FL never fights. She's always hiding behind someone and even if she fights it is not described at all. We later get to know "oh! So she fought there!" (Like taking the revenge and again in the immortal world)

And let's not even start with how the FL and ML fall in love. I guess I understand why FL fall in love. Because she was the damsel in distress a lot of times and ML saved her. But why the hell would ML fall for her. In their first encounter the FL just cursed at a few people for 3 hours so the ML fall for her? Does it makes any sense???

And after 1 thousand years and at 100+ chapters we get to know that there's a prophecy and it involves the Fl. The ML knew it but didn't bother to tell Fl.... 😐 And the ML thinks about the prophecy but what the prophecy is still not explained.....

If you want to read it then fine read. Everyone has different preferences so you might find it a good story. I'm just saying my views in case you don't want to waste your time like me. <<less

I saw the generally positive rating and vague synopsis so I gave it a shot.

Unfortunately as you might have guessed by the inscrutable title the translation by Creative Novels is lacking. It's a pity since it seems like it could be a novel with promise. The premise is pretty funny, a transmigrated modern woman manages to force a renowned cultivator of an ascetic tradition to be her master.

Here's some examples of the poor translation:

"Old Master, help to find a way. If this goes on, everyone won't have to sleep anymore."... more>> His second concubine, whose face was pale, whimpered, sitting on his right side."

"As she mulled over the thought, Qi Huan flatted her lips, and used her face-changing skills that she had learned in her drama club for three years in college."

"Seeing the little girl sitting on the ground crying out loud, Xu Kong Zi suddenly felt a terrible headache. In all his life, he had most feared of a woman crying." <<less
