   Reader note

   To be honest, these kinds of settings are all very oppressive and well-written. The most famous is the "Mythical Beasts" series, but the rest are also very good, even surpassing it. The second book is by Dao Sansheng, which is extremely oppressive in the beginning, but expands to a grander world later with incredibly rich imagination. It's still being updated, though there are some minor plot holes in the middle, and the connections between the beginning and end aren't very strong. It's well-written, but not many people stick with it. The third book has a thoroughly oppressive atmosphere throughout, and it's very well-written, but it's also very angsty, a continuous series of angst that chills the heart and blood. The climax isn't as exciting as Fu Ran's fourth book. The protagonist is born in a bizarre, cult-like world, is sold into prostitution, and is fortunate enough to escape by chance. To find his parents, he travels alone in a world teeming with monsters and forms sworn brotherhoods. The main problem is that there are too many monsters and they are too difficult to deal with. The author also angsts quite a few people, and even the reality of the world is hard to discern. The protagonist also has some mental issues. The last book is about someone who has the ability to infinitely rewind, yet is powerless against reality and can only watch helplessly as those around him leave. Therefore, he had to constantly rewind, struggling on the edge of death. Countless rules, each capable of destroying the world, could only save him from this fate, a boy who had lost his family. Unfortunately, the book's performance was terrible, and it was hastily released and ended. I think in terms of quality, these are about the same as "The Beasts," only the quantity is questionable. In terms of the level of oppression, it should be ranked like this: "Only I Don't Have Superpowers in the Whole World," "The Strange Arrival? Have You Heard of Infinite Rewinds?", "The Mysterious City of Beasts," "The Tentacle-Type Cultivation of a Beautiful Girl," "I Contracted Myself." Dao Sansheng's book is truly extremely oppressive in the beginning, even more so than "The Beasts." Later, it becomes lighthearted, carefree, and nonsensical. The contrast in the beginning is too great, no wonder many people quit. The beginnings are really good, but they are all quite oppressive and can easily lead to depression.
