I'd like to read something like "Lord of Ashes". 1.

Looking for Western Fantasy
Western fantasy means Western-style fantasy, not Journey to the West. It refers to a world that brings together angels, demons, dragons, elves, magic, knights, and the like. For reference, see Son of Light.
Engaging Long Fantasy Novels, Not Ones Where the Protagonist Is Invincible from the Start

Looking for Well-Written Western Fantasy Novels
I really love Central European-style Western fantasy novels, but I don't want them to be overly realistic. The dirt and filth don't necessarily need to be described, though coal miners and chimney sweeps can still appear. I want a novel with prose good enough to perfectly portray the grand splendor and magnificence of the Western Middle Ages.
Looking for Another World's Adventurer Novels
Looking for books like Life in Another World, Starting with a Goblin Siege. Ideally, the story should make sense, without dumbed-down characters. Just a normal, well-written novel.

It's an invincible protagonist story, but not mindless. The protagonist's low-key development and figuring out the rules of the world is immersive. The combination of Eastern and Western cultivation systems is imaginative, and the author pays attention to detail (such as the jade pendant's setting). The only downside is that the dialogue is occasionally a bit wordy. Overall, it's worth reading.
New friends, nice to meet you! Let me introduce this book. This is a slow-paced Western fantasy novel. The cultivation elements focus solely on the male protagonist; there are no mindless, overpowered cultivation techniques. Please don't apply the settings from other books to this one.
The premise of Eastern magic colliding with Western magic is quite novel. The story of a cultivator transmigrating to a magical continent and initially feigning weakness to outwit the powerful is not frustrating and reads smoothly. The protagonist's witty remarks and nonsensical comedic moments are a big plus. However, some of the setup is a bit tedious. Overall, it's a lighthearted and enjoyable read.
It's obvious the author is a novice; there are occasional typos and awkward sentences, but you can tell it was written by hand with care. The author also replies to every comment with sincerity, which adds to the overall interactive experience.
Overall, it's a lighthearted comedy with a relaxing style, without any complicated conspiracies. Chen Heng goes from being a powerful cultivator to a stranger in a strange land, developing his character while slacking off and searching for his way home. The occasional witty remarks and jokes are very relaxing. Some of the dialogue is a bit verbose, but it doesn't affect the reading experience. Updates are steady, and I plan to continue following it.
I like the protagonist's personality; he's not aloof or pretentious, but rather a bit witty and practical. Upon arriving in town, he's immediately thinking about finding lodging, inquiring about magic cultivation methods, and still has his eye on the elf girl. These little thoughts are vividly portrayed, making him seem like a real young person.
The foreshadowing was decent; the concepts of the Taiyi Jade Pendant and the Nine Revolutions Reincarnation Technique were clearly explained in advance, so there shouldn't be any deus ex machina later in the story. The protagonist's gradual development in the town and his inquiries about magic cultivation felt natural, without rushing the plot forward, making it easy to watch.
Overall, it's a solid and enjoyable fantasy novel. The protagonist falls from the world of cultivation to a Western fantasy world, and his process of adapting to the new environment and exploring the magic system feels very realistic. The setting of physical cultivation foundation plus later magic exploration is refreshing, but the pacing could be a bit tighter, and some of the slice-of-life scenes are a little bland. Also... I love harem stories 😏
For a new author, I think it's quite well written. Five stars for encouragement. Some settings still need more refinement before finalization, and care should be taken to avoid conflicts in the plot. Controversial points should be addressed more ambiguously, perhaps briefly. The protagonist's personality and behavior need to be carefully balanced.
The only downside is that the cultivation elements are too few in the early stages so far. Some people who came for the title might feel it's not what they expected. However, the author explained that cultivation elements will be featured on a larger scale, so let's look forward to it.
