    The first book needs little introduction; the judgment is undoubtedly great. The second book, currently only read as a comic, has beautiful character models and a fairytale-like feel. The third book is a blessing for nannies, a no-romance ensemble piece full of action. The fourth book also needs no introduction; it's a classic female-centric story, as many should know. The fifth book has a system that allows the protagonist to seduce the male lead, but the protagonist directly subverts the tropes and seduces everyone… It's very good; check it out for details. The sixth book has the male lead appearing later; it's practically a story of a strong female lead and her adorable husband.

    A fragmented scripture, a quest for immortality—this Xianxia novel is a bit different. Main text: For those of you experiencing a reading slump, I recommend an ongoing Eastern fantasy novel, *The Quest for Immortality from a Fragmented Scripture*. The title itself sounds intriguing, doesn't it? In this world of cultivation, there's no mindless wish-fulfillment; instead, there's a deep commitment to and exploration of the "Dao." The protagonist, armed with a fragmented classic, forges his own path to immortality step by step. If you enjoy Xianxia novels with grand world-building, unconventional plots, and excellent writing, you should definitely give it a try. Although it's still ongoing, it's a promising read—you won't regret it!
