Tired of Dark Fiction. I Want Something Positive, with a Protagonist Who Has a Strong Moral Compass
The kind of good person you never meet in real life: a living Buddha who helps everyone, gets praised by the whole world, and doesn't hide his identity. What happens when he runs into a villain? I've got people all around me who want to repay my kindness. In fantasy novels, you know the type: you mess with me, and the Heavenly Dao strikes you dead on the spot.
If Your Bookshelf Is Full, Just Call My Name. I’ll Answer the Summons and Come Steal Your Books
Please Recommend Stories With a Male Lead Who’s a Nurturing, Mom-Type Guy. I Really Love This Type
Looking for books similar to "Mistook the Villain for a Passerby, and Now the Pretty, Delicate Girl Is Being Doted on Against Her Will". The male lead takes especially good care of the heroine, like a mother hen.
Recommend Books with Principled Protagonists. A Little Too Compassionate Is Fine
Modern novels always go out of their way to avoid making the protagonist a saint, preferring to portray them as petty or villainous. I want to read about a protagonist who is chivalrous and courageous, clearly distinguishes good from evil, understands right from wrong, and helps others within their means.
The Protagonist Is a Mountain God Who Can't Leave His Domain and Is Worshipped by the People
Another Batch of Hidden Gems for Veteran Readers
Looking for books like Phantom Realm Patch. Fresh, thought-provoking ideas and an expansive world! A well-crafted, brain-teasing story that combines fantasy, horror, technology, and transmigration, with airtight logic.
No Harem, Upright Values, and a Male Lead Who Isn't a Womanizer
Books with charismatic characters.
Protagonists with Unshakable Faith, Strong Will, and a Sense of Justice
The protagonist should have strong faith and conviction, and stand up for what's right. The supporting cast and villains shouldn't be idiots. I'm tired of cookie-cutter, mindless wish-fulfillment stories. I want something that fills you with faith and spirit, a true source of spiritual nourishment.
@Stories Where the Protagonist Is a Dragon Who Takes Human Form and Lives from Ancient Times to the Modern Era
A Huge Love-Triangle Mess, Plus an Exciting Preview. What Do You Think?
Looking for books similar to "The System Forces Me to Be a Scumbag, and the Yandere Shura Field Explodes." Cheng Ge from "High School DxD." Please come and pay your respects three times! Offer incense.
A Dominating Heroine Makes a Mistake Early On, Then Aggressively Pursues Her Husband Later
I'd like to read something like You Cared for the Neighbor's Little Brother, So Why Regret the Divorce? Are there any novels that aren't like the usual stories about chasing after a man? Urban fantasy or everyday urban life are both fine. I just want the female lead's personality to stay fairly consistent from beginning to end, with a bit of a strong female lead vibe.
Any Novels Where the Protagonist Loves Nature and Every Animal and Plant Loves Them?
Stories Where the Protagonist Is a God, Deity, Divine Spirit, or Demon God
I Want a Saintly Female Lead!
Only stories with a saintly heroine!!!
Any Creative Stories Out There?
Anything with gods, lords, cultivation, fantasy, and so on is fine, as long as the protagonist isn't too much of an idiot.
Please!! Any Fresh Premises? I'm Tired of So Many Genres
Yandere Romance + Chasing the Husband
Looking for stories similar to "Xuanhuan: How Did My Dead Girlfriend Become an Empress?" I want a little angst, but not a devastating amount.
No More Masterpieces on Mini?
Looking for books like I'm Tiny, and My Uncle Is a Master of Wild Ideas.

A rare gem of a story. It's not set in the prehistoric era, but rather in a more primitive ancient mythology, a world of mutual respect, reciprocity, and selfless acts, embodying the virtues and aspirations of our ancient ancestors. It started getting a bit boring after a while, with the same formula always playing out.
This is a book full of human warmth. Its only purpose is to help others to the best of one's ability, without expecting anything in return or seeking gratitude. It also emphasizes mutual respect throughout the book. Humans and gods are no longer superiors and subordinates, but friends who respect each other.
It's a good read. The protagonist's selfless and loving character is well-portrayed, and it's positive; he doesn't act blindly. He's full of human compassion, but he's not a saint or unreasonable. He has a Zen-like quality, and the writing is quite relaxing and peaceful. It's very well-written.
This is a wonderful novel. It presents the image of traditional Chinese deities in a simple and unpretentious way, changing my recent prejudice against deities due to reading modern fantasy novels. 😄 It has given me a clearer understanding of the differences between Chinese and Western deities.
It gave me the feeling of reading particularly beautiful classical Chinese literature, perhaps like Tao Yuanming's poem, "The boat sails lightly on the water, the wind blows gently against my clothes," depicting an ideal and beautiful world... Working at sunrise and resting at sunset... Without any harshness, yet written with unparalleled skill... Hmm... Let's talk about good books...
Yes, it's alright. There might be a few minor issues in the beginning that make it less enjoyable to read, but they're not particularly bad or offensive. After reading the first part, you'll naturally get used to it. The entire story is permeated with selflessness, mutual respect, and helpfulness. There's no hostility or explicit content, and it's not a typical "feel-good" story. The protagonist's interactions with others are quite pleasant.
Excellent and enjoyable. Among online novels categorized as mythological, relaxing, and pastoral, this book definitely stands out as a good one. (Actually, I wanted to say it's among the top, but this "top" is only in my opinion, based on the thousands of online novels I've read. The internet is vast, and there are always better works.
Quite wonderful, it feels like my worldview has been corrected. The ancient mythological background is also very impressive. Reading it feels like cultivating my mind and character, a bit like Zen meditation (I guess ( ´•.• ` )). In short, it's a calming and good book with unique features. You have to calm down to read it, otherwise you might not be able to get into it. I hope the author updates more!
Yingzhao selflessly helped the tree; he's a good beast. The protagonist, grateful for the beast's kindness, also performs a selfless act; he's a good protagonist. All the creatures that come to Wangwu Mountain inherit this spirit; they're all wonderful. Update faster!!!
It's great! 🤦 The writing style is a bit like reading a translated mythology book, and the plot is quite simple and plain, or rather, quite refreshing. If you don't like this kind of thing, you can skip it. I personally think the simple and plain style is great, and I love reading it. 😏 The main thing is that this book has a lot of familiarity with me.
