I’m looking for stories like *Asakura-kun Is a Saint on the Outside and a Demon on the Inside*. Look at my reading time: I’ve earned the right to have an opinion. Tomato is a god-tier platform, and this light novel is a hidden gem. I don’t know why nobody’s reading it. I’ve been reading for ten years, and if you’re out of books, you absolutely have to give this one a try. The male lead is fairly smart, with a bit of...

As an old bookworm who has been reading Qidian Tomato for many years, I can say without hesitation that this book is quite popular in Qidian. Compared with books like Dao Wei Wei Mi, it is more innovative and has a larger setting. But in terms of writing style and the balance between reality and storytelling, this book is better than them all. The complexity of the fight is also well limited. The creation of many scenes not only conforms to the theme of fantasy, but also brings out the old and brings out the new. It does not appear artificial and makes people know at a glance that it is the world of this cockroach spirit. The only weakness... Forget it, let's not call it a weakness, let's just consider my thoughts about this book: Creatures like insects spend their lives reproducing and eating, so their desire to reproduce should not disappear even if they are wise. Hormone regulation is much stricter than that of us humans. It seems that a lot of entanglements and contradictions in the mental journey can be written about in this aspect. There is also the short life of insects, which should be very sensitive to the seasons - species like Feilian that are born in spring and summer and die in autumn and winter should be even more so. They can feel the ultimate warmth in spring and summer, and everything is rich and beautiful, and then feel the ultimate chill and sorrow in autumn.
It has the quaint feel of novels and online novels from the old era. It's probably the style of online writing from 2014 to 2016. At that time, I particularly liked the delicate descriptions. Now I finally found another gem among the fast-food online writing. I highly recommend it.

Dear Taoist friends, this is a good book, but it is written about a cockroach, and the word "eat" runs through the whole text. The decisive killing in it is really the best that I have seen in my life. Gratitude, grudges, whims, chaos, many evil thoughts, murderous nature, gentleness, and all kinds of contradictions are what I have experienced in this life. If you want to become a real person, you must first experience suffering, taste the tenderness of the world, and temper your character.
It's a very good article. Although there are some strange parts, it's already very good. I've read so many novels on Tomato. I've read so many novels, and this one is acceptable. I hope it won't be discontinued. Many good-looking articles about cultivating immortals will be discontinued when they reach the Nascent Soul stage. I hope the author can write about ascension to the spiritual world or even the fairy world. (I'll give you a perfect five points)
Very good. Cockroaches can also have hearts. Very good. This is human beings. The natural evolution of living things. Even cockroaches can have hearts. It is very beautiful. It sheds tears. It is a good book. Although the intention of this book was not good at the beginning, it is undeniable that it is very beautiful.
Great book, absolutely great book. Why do I say this? First of all, I originally opened this book with the intention of reading it for fun, but after reading it, this book gave me a really good feeling. The author's description and characterization of "worms" in the early stage can be described as meticulous, and he also wrote about the protagonist's obsession with cultivating immortality as a worm and the difficulties on his way to cultivation. Of course, the author writes about more than just "worms." I originally thought that the author would continue the style of writing about insects, but what I didn't expect was that the author soon entered the entanglement and intersection between humans and insects, and vividly portrayed this intersection. Finally, the protagonist who is an insect has human nature. The author did not fall into the quagmire of portraying a single character, which made me feel very comfortable. In short, the author's writing style is smooth and vivid, and it is also relatively delicate. The plot is also in line with the public's taste, so don't underestimate this book. This book is quite powerful when placed in a tomato. It is like a cockroach, and its vitality must be very tenacious (^ー゜)
A very good-looking book, different from the popular genres nowadays. The author uses delicate writing to describe an alternative world of immortality from the perspective of a cockroach. The collision between the cockroach's nature and human nature is even more exciting. It is worth reading [Adoration] Very cool [blowing kiss][admiration] 9 points out of 10 [blowing kiss] Update soon [crying] not enough
This novel. It is the best novel I have ever read. I have seen too many brainless rebirths, golden finger systems, and miscellaneous things in the world of immortality. This is a cockroach that starts from a dirty bottom and practices from a cockroach. I have never seen it as a prototype of a bug. There is no system, no golden finger, and simplicity. As for the plot of cultivating immortality, the author's writing style is also terrible, and the writing is very vivid and smooth. I just read Chapter 17, and I read it line by line, and it describes the sentience of all things and the dirty intrigues of people at the bottom. My writing style is not enough to describe this novel. I can only say that it is wonderful! ! ! I hope that the follow-up author will work hard and not end it! I, Ogura, will insert an eye in advance! It feels like it will be a big hit! Even more than those masterpieces! ! ! ! ! Come on👏
This is a very nice book. It is very comfortable to read and written very smoothly. It is very good for novices. It will also be very novel for seniors. The most awesome thing is that the author updates it quickly in a day and even a small person with ten thousand words can do it casually. It's so awesome, 4~6 updates a day, very stable, never asks for leave, absolutely awesome
