   The first book features a protagonist who transmigrates into a cultivation world, only to find herself a minor, cannon fodder female supporting character. Upon opening her eyes, she discovers herself caught in a vortex of intrigue, with everyone waiting to see her fail and perish amidst powerful figures. But she's no pushover. With her wind spirit root, she traverses secret realms with ease, while others struggle to find opportunities, she returns laden with rewards. That mysterious space is her secret weapon, allowing her to cultivate spiritual herbs and craft magical artifacts, further solidifying her path to cultivation. The second book explores how powerful a female supporting character in the cultivation world can be. "The Silent Female Supporting Character Only Seeks Opportunities" will provide the answer. As a supporting character, the protagonist doesn't become a mere backdrop to the main couple's romance; instead, she forges her own unique path to cultivation. From the very beginning, she understands that in this dog-eat-dog world, opportunities won't come knocking; you have to seize them yourself. She acts decisively and ruthlessly. In various cultivation gatherings and battles for relics, while others are still hesitating and weighing their options, she has already swiftly seized precious cultivation techniques and magical treasures. Facing those who covet her opportunities, the female protagonist shows no mercy, defeating them utterly with the strength she has gradually accumulated.

   This is truly a no-romance story, an ensemble piece, a female-centric narrative, and a gathering of young geniuses from various sects who get together to cause trouble. The female lead has an alternate identity; in her past life, she was a sword immortal, and in this life, she's a "little fairy." The elders are also very endearing, each with a distinct personality. The writing style is light and humorous, and the writing is decent.

   A divinely inspired ensemble cast of immortal sects! The scene of the sect's recruitment alone was enough to completely captivate the reader. Xie Qingsu, wielding her sword with composure, accompanied by her dragon and ghostly spirits, with four brilliant talents standing behind her, instantly establishes the depth and complexity of the characters. The author's greatest strength lies in balancing the ensemble cast. The female lead is aloof and dignified, each sect member possesses unique characteristics, and the spirit pets are vivid and endearing. There are no flat, one-dimensional characters; the writing style is clean and expansive, the atmosphere of the immortal mist and mountains is immersive, there's no internal strife or backstabbing, and the sect is united. The phrase "The future is promising, and leisure is endless" perfectly encapsulates the gentle undertones of the entire book. Overall, it's a healing and grand work, a pinnacle of ensemble cast stories in the cultivation genre.

   It's pretty good. The first few chapters might be a little boring, but it gets better as you read on. The female lead is very interesting and quirky, with lots of witty lines. There's a senior sister (a taciturn, reliable older sister), a second junior brother (a gentle talisman-making master), a third junior brother (a fiery, awkward swordsman), a fourth junior brother (a cute, food-loving "sword" person), and the female lead, an all-around expert (a powerful woman who cultivated from plants, excelling in swordsmanship, alchemy, talismans, and weapon crafting). #Ensemble #noromance #comedy #cultivation

    This is not a wish-fulfillment story, not abstract, not passive, not mindless, no romantic pairings, an ensemble cast, but an ensemble cast doesn't mean the protagonist is the most beloved! It doesn't revolve around one person; everyone contributes humor to soften the tragic undertones of the main character. In this story, Heaven doesn't side with justice; justice is the people's struggle. (A thin coffin costs three or four coins. Wishing Wuyao a rise to fame.) "I sensed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth; it's a net." If the girl who helped with disaster relief hadn't already died, how could the title of "Osmanthus Fairy" have fallen upon her? "You will save one person, kill one person, and witness one wrongful death." "Deceiving cause and effect, concealing fate, destiny is predetermined, but not in one's destiny." Killing one to save ten thousand—is that acceptable?
