Sigh, some stories look so plain on the surface. You’ll never know how wonderful they are unless you click on them.
Looking for Books About Taoist Arts, Magic, Ghost Hunting, Cultivation, and More
The protagonist should have some skills from the start and gradually grow stronger later on. Male perspective.
Any Books About the Seventy-Two Earthly Arts?
Looking for books like "The Seventy-Two Transformations of the Earth Fiend". Preferably supernatural stories with ghosts and strange beings, set in the world of "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio". Wuxia crossovers are fine too, especially ones mainly set in the worlds of "The Snowy Swordsman", "My Own Swordsman", or "The First in the World".

I finally noticed something was off. The beginning kept emphasizing the protagonist's importance and the need for their safety, but only a three-star investigator accompanied them, with no higher level of protection (not even a hint of covert protection).
We're hiring! Excellent benefits, includes time travel, rebirth, and a free system. Due to an overabundance of new small worlds leading to a severe shortage of transmigrators, we're now recruiting transmigrators—men, women, young, and old—on a first-come, first-served basis. Give us a like to get a chance to transmigrate and a system. (Give it a try, it's free!)
It's pretty good. It incorporates many demons and monsters from ancient Chinese texts, complete with original summaries, which is very meticulous. The story looks like it will be quite long, and according to the author, the first story is just an appetizer, so I won't comment on it yet. I think the author's writing style has really improved; the characters are very well-developed.
Ahem… that one was well-written! Hope everyone will leave comments and urge me to update, supporting the young author ❤️
Yes, the first few chapters are a bit stiff, but they gradually improve, and the story and mystery begin to emerge later on. Unlike other novels that follow the empty formula of miraculous appearances, monster slaying, leveling up, then more miraculous appearances, monster slaying, and leveling up, this one doesn't feel empty. It has some potential. Such a low score? Please give me a bonus review!
Having read up to chapter 33, I'd like to offer a brief review for those who come later. It's a very good, high-quality story, easily a nine out of ten for those who enjoy it, but I'd rate it around an eight. Whether it reaches nine depends on whether the protagonist undergoes a transformation later and whether the writing style is slightly modified. First, the protagonist is a bit too lazy.
It's a pretty good novel, the realistic content is rather mundane and slice-of-life, but there's some angst and a bad ending… What I personally find hard to accept is the excessive length of the side quests. I finished the first side quest, Peach Blossom Spring, but I haven't finished the second side quest, Zhongshan Yimu Kingdom.
This is a very good book. The writing is skillful and has the feel of reading a classic. The adaptation of the story is also very detailed and novel. The section on Peach Blossom Spring is particularly good. It maintains the literary and artistic feel while making it accessible to all. Actually, I think the protagonist's combat power could be toned down a bit.
It's a great read. The author's writing is excellent, and the references are clearly explained and easy to understand. It's a very enjoyable read without any mindless plot twists; the action is just exhilarating. The part about Shen Qing's father missing his childhood friend Shen Qing on the seventh day after Shen Qing's death reminded me of my own deceased relatives, and I cried buckets. Overall, it's very well written. I hope it doesn't stop updating.
It's really good. The author seems to get quite intelligent whenever they write about fighting. It's not like it's being leaked for free; there's frequent interaction, which is quite interesting.
