   Li Muchen is a hidden cultivator who is clearly richer than any wealthy family, yet he is forced into the saga of becoming a live-in son-in-law. The most exciting part is the plot where he uses his cultivation methods to solve urban troubles, such as the particularly satisfying scene of him "using a heavenly lightning bolt" to teach his opponent a lesson.

4. 54 莺 A Cultivation Path Among the Warblers 莺莺燕燕修仙路 Illusory Mortal World幻人间Urban1.9M WordsOngoing An urban, everyday-life story told in plain language. High-martial-arts cultivation without spiritual energy; no System, no old master in a magical artifact, and no rebirth. There's life and conflict, and when it's time to fight or kill, the protagonist does just that. Beautiful women are his cultivation resource, not a harem obligation. This is a modern high-martial-arts world with almost no spiritual energy, so cultivation should be impossible. But lucky Li Jun unexpectedly obtained an incredi 59Reads8.1Score27014d adds

   The story features a female protagonist in a vernacular style, a high-level urban martial arts world, and a cultivation system without spiritual energy. There are no systems for picking up girls, no rebirths or prophecies, no immortals or gods who are self-taught, no showing off in other worlds, and a perfect protagonist halo without feeling stifled. The male protagonist is responsible but not a womanizer.

   AI recommends this gem of a book. A tale of passion and intrigue, sharp and visceral action, no dragging, no harem tropes, and no insult to intelligence. This is a hidden gem whose title doesn't do it justice—the battles are decisive and swift, with no unnecessary dialogue. Absolutely original, the plot defies imagination, and avoids the clichéd cultivation trope. The protagonist is reborn in 1980s China, witnessing the tumultuous historical process and rising from the very bottom of society. The author's depiction of the immortal realm and the so-called divine realm completely breaks away from traditional cultivation settings, taking you into an unprecedented extraordinary world…
