    First, check the ratings. I only recommend high-quality books with good male leads, strong morals (but not brainless or overly idealistic), and decisive action. These are the books I recommend.

    This is what I just read. It's the first book, and it seems to be relatively new, only about 50 chapters. I think it's pretty good. It's not an invincible protagonist story, and the characters aren't very strong in the early stages. I've seen other books where characters automatically gain cultivation by taking on disciples, which gets really boring in the mid-to-late stages. But I can't see that yet, so I'll save it.
