Synopsis

During the Jingyan era, a tale about a pawnshop whose business was steadily declining spread through every street and alley. They said the place was shabby and run-down, and its owner was a tiny, skinny young woman who spent her days outside, disheveled, scavenging for odds and ends. There were hardly any antiques worth looking at in the shop, just junk. The only thing that gleamed was the bronze Pixiu hanging from the owner’s waist. Yet this poor young woman had hired a strikingly handsome manager, who wore a plain-colored long gown, with long brows sweeping toward his temples and eyes like stars. His long hair swayed against the shadows of branches outside the window, though for some reason he always wore a pair of black gloves. The little pawnshop opened on schedule every day, and all sorts of bizarre monsters would come calling: Ma Tou Niang, who could weave celestial silk brocade; Yingyu, with a human body and fish tail; mountain spiders that appeared on hilltops at night; a water god sealed beneath a village river... Every one of these strange occurrences pointed to a book from a thousand years ago, The Record of Demon Creation.

Any Books Like Hundred Demon Spectrum, Tales of a Floating Life, or The Ethereal Mist?

I'd like to read books like Ethereal: The Lantern-Bearer Volume. The protagonist is a woman, a long-lived being who isn't human. She watches the fickleness of the world and all kinds of stories, passing through the human realm like a traveler.

Any Books Like The Hundred Demons Spectrum?

Looking for books similar to *Hundred Demons' Spectrum, Vol. 4*. I finished it and feel awful, all emo, but I still read the whole thing. Now I feel so unsettled. Can some expert recommend a book? Something with a really powerful female lead wandering the world...

The darkness in the human heart is deeper than anything in the world, and the more timid and fearful a person is, the more short-sighted and inferior they are. The more short-sighted they are, the more selfish and self-centered they are, and the more such people appear to be weak and bullyable on the surface, but in fact they are deep-minded and vicious! If you trace many things that harm people to their origins, you will find that the initiators are people like this. They are monsters in the world.

It's like seeing another Book of Mountains and Seas, with a different style from the current stories about crazy men and women, domineering presidents, tomb robbing notes, time travel, spiritual power cultivation, handsome men and beautiful women! Recommended, more touching! The ghost is not that ghost, and the monster is not that weird. He is cuter than a decent man...

The heroine Bai Linglong has a tougher character because her parents died when she was very young, so she is relatively independent. Although she looks petite, her heart is full of strength and her willpower is relatively firm; while the male protagonist Tianqian has been living in the world for a long time, so he is relatively stable and can be calm no matter what happens. On the surface, he treats everyone equally and is fair and clear, but there is a warmth in his heart that favors the heroine. The two bonded with each other because of "The Record of Demon Creation". In the previous life, the heroine was actually the keeper of the "Record of Demon Creation", and the male protagonist was a demon created by her. Later, the heroine fell because of this book, and the male protagonist reappeared beside the heroine in order to repair the "Record of Demon Creation".

Every story is touching. Humans are not as good as monsters, and people's hearts are unpredictable. However, monsters have presented us with touching scenes. Family, friendship, and love are all vividly displayed in the author's writings.

Generation after generation of bookkeepers, each generation has a different personality. No matter how many lives they have experienced, they are always protected by Tianqian and Chenghuang. It has nothing to do with love, it is a story about the coexistence of a guardian and a demon. The plot is not sluggish, but the part where Bai Linglong later called "The Demon Making Record" to seal Qiongqi's power and save the world was a bit hasty. The extra chapter follows Lin Long, which is fascinating and memorable. I really can't get enough of it!
