The Messy Business of Cultivation

Traditional Xuanhuan Seems to Have Fallen on Hard Times

I Miss the Fantasy Stories of the Past. I Want to Read Some, but Can’t Find Any

I want the more traditional kind of fantasy novel, where the protagonist advances step by step toward the peak of the Great Dao.

Looking for Old-School Cultivation Stories: An Ordinary Mortal Who Works Hard to Cultivate, Not Someone Who Levels Up Every Few Chapters

No extraordinary talent, no System, and no fortuitous opportunities. The protagonist should rely solely on their own abilities, leveling up gradually and becoming a powerful expert in their own right. No leveling up every few chapters! No leveling up every few chapters! No leveling up every few chapters! Repeating this three times because it's important.

Looking for Straightforward Cultivation, a Little Talent, and No Idiot Elders in the Sect

No-Romance Stories Focused on Unorthodox Paths Like Illusions, Poison, and Ghost Taming

I want a story with no romance. The protagonist can be a villain, too, and should focus on unorthodox methods, not mainstream orthodox cultivation techniques.

Traditional Eastern Xianxia Novels

At least three million words. Ideally, the cultivation levels should be Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, Tribulation Transcendence, Great Ascension, and Immortal Ascension, followed by True Immortal and then godhood or something, with room to advance further.

Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul

Other people can control one sword, but he can control many. Others can command one spirit beast, while he can command many. Ideally, the story also has an immortal estate or a personal space.

Fantasy Has Fallen Off. Prove Me Wrong

Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, One Female Lead, No Harem

Is there anything like that?????

Is there a book where the protagonist is kidnapped and taken up a mountain from the start, spends years or even a decade cultivating in misery, then comes down already invincible?

Please, I’m Begging for Proper Classical Cultivation Fantasy

Maybe it’s because society is developing too quickly and all kinds of System web novels have appeared. To relieve social pressure, feel-good power fantasies have become mainstream. There are fewer cultivation novels now, so I’m begging all the experts out there to recommend some books.
