   Reader note

   A promising female-centric novel. The protagonist's group consists of seven teams, which the protagonist recruits one by one, leading them to fight against world-destroying, god-level combatants. The book includes intellectual battles, group battles (supporting characters are not just accessories to the protagonist), death games, a death-themed girl group battle, a humorous cooking competition, world-destroying battles, and even world-destroying battles. The book already has over 200 chapters in drafts, all hand-written. This book features a "philosophical warrior" who spouts Kant's philosophy and always uses twisted logic to fight the toughest battles. There's a narcissistic and arrogant "academic charlatan" who always gets into big trouble but stubbornly perseveres and breaks through the odds. There's a high-class, arrogant male protagonist who uses metacognitive intellectual combat to the point that a group of world-destroying, god-level martial artists follow him. There's a female protagonist who starts with four layers of disguise, a martial god and a super-rich tycoon, always leading a group of ordinary people through catastrophic battles. The team spirit she and the protagonist's group forge together is: to kill the impossible. The epic creation-level portrayal of the villainous ensemble group "Wandering Spiders" gives the antagonists complete character arcs, making them neither mechanically created villains nor mindlessly stupid ones. The alien civilization is also depicted in great detail, with each alien martial arts expert having their own independent story and growth arc. Within this story, nation-destroying warbands such as "Immortals and Calamities," "The Apocalypse of the Burial of Gods," "Eight Stars and One Radiance," and "Dreamland of Wonderland" portray a rich and expansive world view of martial arts heroes. The most compelling part is watching the protagonist lead a group of ordinary people to continuously overcome various superhuman challenges, defeating nation-destroying, world-destroying, and god-level forces. They don't rely on leveling up or increasing combat power, but rather on their understanding and tactical coordination to repeatedly "kill the impossible" and "kill despair." The early chapters have a touch of suspense, with foreshadowing and plot resolution spanning from ten to a hundred chapters. The plot progresses quickly, driven entirely by the motivations of the characters, and so far, there haven't been any filler chapters up to chapter 200. The game features exciting combat (supporting characters are not mere accessories), thrilling strategic battles, comedic moments, tear-jerking scenes, a narrative of political intrigue, a behind-the-scenes boss with multiple identities, and a grand, multi-faceted world. I hope you enjoy these elements!

    Don't be put off by the title! This book is by the same author as "The National Film Emperor's Unrequited Love," so you should check it out just for the author's sake! The female lead is an empress who transmigrates from the book; she's very down-to-earth, not at all pretentious, and there are no suffocating Mary Sue plots. Her character is so perfect that you really can't dislike her. (Some novels have female leads who suddenly become pretentious halfway through.)

    Strong female lead, super exciting! 1️⃣👍The male and female leads are bound together from the moment they meet. One relies on the other to eliminate evil spirits, conserving spiritual energy and accumulating merit to survive; the other relies on the other's help to consume excess purple energy and rise again. 🍡 2️⃣Highly recommended! Suspenseful, politically charged, and full of plot twists. The story unfolds in a tightly woven manner, making it a compelling read that will keep you up all night. 👀The male lead's secrets, the female lead Yan Sanhe's background, and the undercurrents in the imperial court—every detail is exquisite. 3️⃣✨"Have you heard of the Nine Clans of Divine Descendants?" Luo Yinyou: "No, I only know that I must slaughter the Ghost Clan." ✨"Have you ever bathed in the holy light of the divine path, knowing that Chaoge is forever bright and the Ghost Realm is forever dark?"
