Any Stories About Transmigrating to Different Worlds? Not the Same Old Genre Every Time
Ideally something that randomly transmigrates between settings like urban life, movies, wuxia, high martial arts, mythology, and sci-fi, rather than sticking to one genre. I wonder if any author has written something like that. I’ve been reading for almost 20 years 😂😂😂

Infinite-Flow Stories Where the Protagonist Grows Strong Step by Step Like an Ordinary Player
I don’t like protagonists with overwhelming plot armor. In a lot of infinite-flow novels, the protagonist is a rookie who just entered the game but is already the strongest, crushing all kinds of gods, demons, and monsters. I’m tired of that. I want to see the protagonist enter the game like an ordinary player, starting out terrified and anxious, then gradually growing stronger.
Fresh, Unusual Settings and a Variety of Abilities
Something similar to Weather Forecast.

Gou means wanting and wanting at the same time, so the story concept revolves around Rao Gou. In the book, the male protagonist Bai Yu inadvertently inherits the inheritance of his half-brother and becomes wealthy, only to find that his brother has become a vegetative state, and all his encounters come from an unknown tomb. Clues from the ancient tomb show that the owner of the tomb was the closest person to the Goddess Queen thousands of years ago. The Goddess Queen did not die, but left the world using the dragon tablet. Clues show that the dragon tablet can save the vegetative brothers. It's a pity that Bai Yu got the Yejia Dragon Tablet, failed, and was saved too late. Bai Yu sealed his half-brother into the Niutoushan Tomb, and like the Goddess Queen, used the dragon tablet to leave this world. As a result, he arrived in another similar time and space. In this time and space, cold weapons and hot weapons coexist. Bai Yu escapes from marriage and joins a new elite martial arts school. His magnificent life has just begun. The content is set as urban martial arts. In fact, it has fantasy and chaos in time and space. The only thing that remains unchanged for the male protagonist is that we will never stop being strong. The book currently only has more than twenty chapters, and the rich storyline has just begun. This book is the author's hard work. Although it has shortcomings, he will continue to write it according to the overall structure of the book.
With its unique narrative entry point and fatalistic philosophical thinking, the novel presents readers with a profound legend about truth, desire for power and protection. It is not only a visual feast of cultivation, but also a deconstruction and reconstruction of the "truth of the world". The beginning of the story is very suspenseful: his half-brother disappears unexpectedly, and the protagonist Bai Yu discovers a mysterious black suitcase under the bed. This setting cleverly draws readers' attention from ordinary urban life to the unknown abyss. The core metaphor in the book - "The world is a hijab bride, whoever lifts her hijab, she belongs to", accurately captures the protagonist's wildness and wisdom in his desire to control his destiny and pierce the hypocritical reality. The world view of the novel is extremely grand and imaginative. The author is not limited to the traditional leveling up and fighting monsters, but extends his tentacles to areas where science fiction and fantasy intersect such as "the true universe", "the prosperous realm of the sea" and "the missing one-word god clan". This narrative jump from real life to an extremely cold place and the Hanyu Mountains gives the work a wonderful tension of "illusion shining into reality". What is commendable is that in the process of pursuing ultimate power, the novel does not lose its delicate portrayal of human nature. Whether it's the unexpected contrast of "My wife turns out to be Lian Jiazi" or the human fireworks in "Eggplant Noodles", this work has a warm touch against the turbulent background of cultivation. This method of embedding the trivial aspects of life in a grand narrative makes the character Bai Yu not only a hero who "lifts the lid of the world", but also an ordinary person of flesh and blood who protects his family. This is a masterpiece of urban cultivation with tight rhythm and novel setting.
There are always some roads that have to be walked alone; there are always some things that have to be done in the dark night. From the very beginning of "The Life of Gou Zai Yi Wandering at Night", it uses the bond of brothers + the suspense of the city + the secrets of ancient martial arts to draw people firmly into the story. Bai Yu and his half-brother Chen Yu lived in the same dilapidated dormitory for three years and became strangers to each other. However, after the other person disappeared, they searched all over the city like crazy. A sealed cardboard box under the bed, when pried open, turns out to be the key to changing the fate - ledger, wasteland contracting agreement, mysterious black suitcase, the younger brother of the sheepherding boy is actually a hidden billionaire, the truth is reversed layer by layer, making people feel numb. The story runs in two parallel lines, full of tension: • On one side is the struggle of ordinary people: unemployed at the age of thirty, single, waiting for his brother to return in an empty house, regrets and obsessions are written into daily life, it is so real that it hurts the heart; • On one side are the legends in the dark night: the night walker seizes the secret treasure, the Ye family's secret skills reappear, the ancient tomb murals hide magical skills, and the dark horse suddenly appears in the martial arts conference. You will not get tired of watching the suspense, martial arts, and intrigues in one go. The most amazing thing is the contrast between "gou" and "strong". The protagonist is not proud of the sky, does not forcefully cheat, but is cautious at every step, hiding the front and guarding the bottom, surviving in the market, arranging plans in the dark night, and playing "low-key development and secret comeback" to the extreme. The forbearance of a small person, the bond between brothers, the secrets of aristocratic families, the rare objects in ancient tombs, and the inheritance of ancient martial arts are all mixed together. It is both fireworks and rivers and lakes. The more you chase it, the higher it gets. The rhythm is steady, the foreshadowing is dense, the characters are established well, there is no unnecessary water, and every chapter hides new suspense. From the deep brotherhood to the secret battles in the world, from the fireworks in the streets to the secrets of the ancient tombs, it is both warm and refreshing. If you love urban suspense, ancient martial arts counterattacks, and low-key bosses, this book is definitely a recent treasure. It's not a loss if you chase, but you won't be able to stop if you fall into the trap!
We don't always keep in touch, and we don't seem to have much concern, but we are inseparable good brothers. It is a novel with depth and writing style, and is very enjoyable to read. I recommend it. Writing novels well requires perseverance, especially novels that are more durable to read. Please keep updating.
Seemingly ruthless, he has already paved the way for his brothers. Character determines destiny, and an unknown tomb creates a life of rich and beautiful people walking at night.
From the author's point of view, he has a lot of imagination and the setting is relatively novel. As a new writer, it is not easy (I deeply agree) From a reader's perspective, most novels follow general routines, and the routines of this book are as good as many novels. The supplements and introductions to the settings are a bit abrupt, and the content feels a bit watery. Overall, it's good. Please support me [I understand]
Please update soon, the author is great. Overall, it's okay and watchable.
I've been reading this book for a long time, so I'm going to write a review for you. This is the first urban immortality novel I've read. The character of the protagonist caught my eye. He's sleek, sophisticated, and even a little scheming, but he's also upright and upholds his own path in his heart.
The setting is novel and the story is very strong. I look forward to the further development of the story! Highly recommended!
I've just read the last chapter, and it's still good. The male protagonist's life experience is pitiful, and his circumstances are very strange. He is somewhat searching for the meaning of life in a chaotic time and space. I look forward to the follow-up.
