Although the writing quality deteriorates a bit later on, it's still very enjoyable.

    The first book is about a medical immortal, with no female lead. The protagonist doesn't cause trouble but isn't afraid of it either; he's not a saint but isn't heartless either. The second book needs no introduction. The third book probably doesn't involve cultivation; it depends on the author's writing style. It's not a "playing it safe" type of protagonist; the male lead has his own shadow in both the martial arts world and the imperial court. I think the fourth book is okay, but I don't know why the rating isn't high. However, it's definitely not as good as before after the protagonist becomes a god. The male lead is abstinent but there's no female lead. Chen Guanlou's book is quite good, but it's not being updated much now. The prison guard's book has no female lead, but the protagonist's aptitude is too poor; he hasn't even reached the Foundation Establishment stage by chapter 1000. Don't read it if you like fast-paced, action-packed novels. Chu Chen's book is good; the protagonist's cultivation is very stable and cautious, but he'll act decisively when necessary. The only problem is the slow updates. The rest are all completed works, and they're all pretty good, fitting the rating.
