Infinite Game: Becoming One of the First Players

Looking for God of Slaying Fics with a Transformation-Type Sequence Like Cao Yuan's

Pure Survival Stories, Like Road Trips or Deserts. No Rule-Based Horror. Male-Oriented

I'd like to read books similar to Survival: One Shot, One Soul, While Others Struggle to Survive, I Go on Vacation (Highway Survival). Pure survival stories only, please. No rule-based horror, monsters, ghosts, or anything like that. Male-oriented fiction. The golden finger shouldn't be too overpowered, just useful as support.

The Protagonist Is Among the First to Enter a World of the Supernatural and Has the Highest Combat Power

Looking for books similar to "Weird World: My Tourists Can Only Be Killed by Me". The protagonist is cold-blooded and utterly disillusioned with humanity. He knows all kinds of rules inside and out and knows how to exploit them. I want a rules-based horror survival game with a battle royale setup.

Novels Where In-Game Classes Manifest in the Real World

Novels where a character's in-game class manifests in the real world

Underrated but Surprisingly Good Gaming and Sports Novels

Looking for good sports novels about video games. Nothing too generic, please.

Superpowers, Cultivation, Post-Apocalyptic, and Magic Are All Welcome!

Any recommendations for stories that aren't so over-the-top from the start (no getting one's bones or spiritual roots ripped out, no original female lead who's also a scheming green tea), and that hook you right from the opening?
