A Worldbuilding Scale Even Grandier Than Perfect World and Shrouding the Heavens
The protagonist must be invincible, and the worldbuilding has to be vast.
There Aren't Any Good Dark Stories Anymore. Come Prove Me Wrong
Suddenly in the Mood for Cultivation Stories, the Kind Without a System
I'm out of books to read. Looking for something that holds up well.
Looking for Traditional Fantasy You Can Read All Night
Self-interest + Absolute Power
I’m looking for books like Hey! I Said Be a Cannon Fodder in a Period Novel, Not to Torment the Scumbags.
Ruthless, Decisive, Cunning, Self-Serving, Brilliant Strategist
Ruthless, decisive, sinister, cunning, putting profit above all else, and full of intelligent schemes. Only recommend one or two truly high-quality novels, or I'll curse you. A real masterpiece.
In a Reading Slump? Time to Bring Out the Crown Jewel on My Shelf!
As Far as I’m Concerned, No Novel Without Romance Is Any Good!
Disagree? Come argue!!!
The Male Lead Works Alone, Remember, Alone. Don't Recommend Anything Else!!!
Do you know what “going solo” means? No heroine, no romance, no male-male romance, and preferably nothing too suggestive either. I want a male protagonist. No other requirements, anything goes.
Any Recommendations for Top-Tier Xuanhuan Epics?
I am begging you on my knees.
Looking for a High-Quality Fantasy Novel, Preferably as Good as Against the Gods
Against the Gods was the first xuanhuan novel I ever read. I’ve been following it for ages, but it never updates, so now I have nothing to read.
Real Political Intrigue Fiction: Nothing Shallow or Brain-Burning, That’s My Taste
Reading this will make you wonder whether you have a brain. Highly, highly recommended. Everyone is smart, and the foreshadowing runs throughout the whole story. Anyway, I didn't understand a thing. It's just satisfying from start to finish. All I can say is the author's writing is insanely good.
Anything Below 9.5 Is Mediocre, and Even Books Above 9.5 Have Their Tiers
Deep, Thought-Provoking Stories That Feel Like Masterpieces
Something like "The Three-Body Problem", for example.
I’m Tired of Saying the Words “No Female Lead”
Completed Masterpieces! No Amateurish Stories
High-Quality Villain Stories: No Showing Off, No Stupid Plot. Please, I Beg You.
Urban stories with villain protagonists.

As long as it's good.
Cultivation Novels with Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, Void Crossing, and More
Please recommend something...
Any High-Quality Traditional Eastern Fantasy?

Traditional Fantasy Needs Attention Too, Not Just a Million-Word Solo Act!
Traditional fantasy has been part of so many people’s youth, but times have changed. It’s incredibly hard to write a million words solo and make it big now. Platforms don’t give traditional fantasy any traffic support, so I want to start a thread for new books. Post your original new novels here so readers looking for this kind of book can find them.
Decisive and Ruthless! No Endless Chatter, Just Pure Thrills
Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, and Ascension
Looking for a fantasy novel that hooks you from the very first page.

I've finished reading all 160+ chapters that have been updated so far. Overall, it's better than most books. However, this book differs from other cultivation novels, featuring many unique settings and plots, almost like pioneering a new genre. But these settings and plots might be difficult for readers who still prefer traditional cultivation novels to accept.
The writing style is excellent, with a classical feel, but it's a bit difficult to read. The story itself isn't particularly remarkable. It's too pedantic and difficult to read! Also, it doesn't revolve around the main character; the people and events are scattered…
There are no plot holes; all the loose ends from the beginning are resolved later. Each character is vividly and three-dimensionally portrayed. The character development remains consistent throughout, the plot is tight and coherent, and all the main characters are intelligent—it's a show that could be adapted into a TV series.
The plot is logical, not mindless, and avoids being overly dramatic; the writing is solid. A must-read on Tomato's list. [Under pressure to finish]
It's been so long since I've read such a good and exciting novel! It's the kind of novel that you won't get tired of reading, where each story flows very well and naturally, and it's quite enjoyable—the climaxes are swift and to the point.
I started off dismissive, but then I got hooked and really enjoyed it! Ahhhhh, the subject matter is so fresh, the author's imagination is boundless, the plot is non-stop action, and the foreshadowing is brilliantly done. I've read many novels, but this is the only one that has left me with such a crazy desire to read more.
A prime example of a novel with three excellent chapters; just reading the first three chapters made me want to keep reading. The writing is clearly high-quality, the plot is yet to be determined, and the setting is also very good. A top-notch classical cultivation novel.
The plot is full of twists and turns, and each character has a rich inner world. After reading it, you can feel the author's love for life and understanding of human nature. It is a captivating novel.
The first few chapters of a novel determine whether I continue reading, the development in the middle determines whether I continue reading, and the writing style and the smoothness of the story determine how fast I read. This book does all three aspects very well!
The plot is quite tight, and the foreshadowing the author planted is all resolved later, without leaving anything abrupt. Furthermore, the characters are all very distinct, and their personalities change subtly as the plot unfolds, maintaining a coherent logic. A good book indeed.
