Horror, Absurdity, and the Supernatural: Something Truly Gripping and Chilling
Something really, really exciting, like one of those supernatural horror resurgence stories.
Chinese-Style Horror Novels Like Three Corpse Tales
I’m looking for fantasy novels with a mystical feel, usually involving sorcerers, Taoist magic, and the like. They should feel both distant from and close to everyday life: strange things that happen in our world are actually caused by things we can’t see.
Stories With a System, Set in the Mortal Realm, Cultivation Realm, Immortal Realm, Divine Realm, and Chaos Realm
No modern settings, only historical ones.
The Pinnacle of the Fantasy World
Fantasy Campaigns, Building an Army, and an Invincible Protagonist from Start to Finish
No goody-two-shoes protagonists.
Are There No Good Cthulhu Novels on Tomato?
Horror and the Supernatural: The Scarier, the Better
Cthulhu Stories That Drive You Mad
The protagonist never shows mercy. Pretty girls and all, one slash each. They're barely human, in appearance or in spirit, and look so repulsive they could make you puke.
Any Tomato Novels Like Li Huowang, with Eerie Cultivation? No Brainless, Simplistic Stories
Cthulhu Mythos Stories. I’m Out of Books to Read.
Any Stories Where the Protagonist Is an Old One?
Looking for Stories Set in the Cthulhu Mythos. I’m a Fan of the Original Works
Eerie Cultivation, White-Bone Foundation Building, Heretical Paths, Conspiracies, Parasitism, and the Unknowable
Pay attention to the genre. I'll block recommendations with the wrong genre, badly written descriptions, copied author descriptions, or books pushed by studios.
Ascension Is a Lie: Cultivators Are Food for Higher-Dimensional Beings
The cultivation world is a giant slaughterhouse. Cultivators are livestock raised for food, and ascending to immortality is one huge joke.
True Lovecraftian Horror
Not the kind of story that says something is indescribable, but then just gives you a bunch of tentacles and eyeballs. I want the terror of the unknown, like an ant knowing the shadow above it comes from a giant boot, but the ant can't possibly understand what a boot is,
Guys, I'm Out of Books to Read. Any Recommendations for Imaginative Fantasy?
Many thanks, fellow cultivators!
Please, I’m Begging for a Fantasy Novel with over 6,000 Chapters
Looking for a xuanhuan novel with 6,000+ chapters, a really long series, no System, a huge setting and grand scope, long-term progression, and all kinds of insanely powerful bloodlines and physiques!
Looking for Cultivation Novels with Bone-Based Foundation Building, Strange Golden Cores, and Human Lives as the Price of Cultivation
Looking for the Su-Ke-Lu Series, or Something Extremely Chaotic, Obsessive, and a Little Unhinged
Aaaah!
Evil Gods and Immortals... Eldritch, Unknowable Cthulhu-Style Gods and Ethereal, Boundless Immortals...
An evil god and an immortal, opposed to each other, with two factions.
Unorthodox Paths, Supernatural Mysticism, and the Stranger the Magic, the Better
Looking for something involving unorthodox paths and bizarre, eccentric techniques.
Evil Gods Everywhere, Mysteries Abound, Humanity Is Near Extinction, and the Protagonist Can Only Save It
Douluo Dalu, Battle Through the Heavens, Shrouding the Heavens, Perfect World, Guys, Share Your Recs!
Cthulhu Novels on Tomato Novel Seem to Have No Corruption at All
Something like Cell Prison, the kind where one glance is enough to make you fall. Please recommend a serious Cthulhu Mythos novel.
