    1. *God-Level Resource Matching: I Sweep Away in the Name of Plants* Core Highlights: A Useless Player's Rise to Power + Divine Plants at Hand + Decisive Action. The protagonist, Lin Yuan, transmigrates to a high-martial arts world, awakening the universally despised talent, [Plant Pact]. However, he's bound to the [God-Level Resource Matching System]. Every time he breaks through a major realm, the system matches him with a mind-blowing "peerless divine plant." * The Ultimate Thrill of Slapping Faces: Mocked as a waste at the start? No problem, the next second your divine plant will blast your enemies to smithereens. This contrast is the essence of a satisfying read. (And unlike usual, it's genuinely incredibly satisfying. You can check out my profile and follow the author of this book; it's the only one I've followed out of all the books I've read, which speaks volumes about its quality!) * A Novel Combat System: Not the traditional fist-to-fist combat, but fighting by controlling various exaggeratedly powerful divine plants. The visuals are incredibly vivid and the impact is phenomenal. * Pure slaughter: The protagonist's goal is clear: to attain supreme enlightenment and suppress the era. There are no unnecessary romantic entanglements or overly sentimental actions, and he is not a saint at all. 2. *I Advise You to Give Up the Martial Arts Exam, and You'll Become the Supreme Martial Artist?* Core highlights: Anthropomorphism of all things + easy win + extreme resource acquisition (later, he receives super-high attention from the state, getting whatever he wants, with all the state's resources poured into him, resulting in abundant resources). The protagonist, Lin Xiao, obtains a system that can "personify" all things and allow them to evolve automatically. * By giving personality to cultivation techniques, they will automatically cultivate, simplify, and even evolve. * By giving personality to the five internal organs, the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth will converge. * By giving personality to weapons, a forty-meter-long sword that can kill on its own will appear. * By giving personality to a small broken cauldron, it will directly become a medicine cauldron that controls all prescriptions and automatically refines medicine. The protagonist only needs to be responsible for making money, acquiring resources, and collecting personality fragments. The rest is left to the system and other personalities, focusing on "easy win" and "anti-routine". * Incredibly Novel Setting: The concept of "everything can be personified" is taken to the extreme, featuring both wildly imaginative comedic elements and powerful combat support. Watching the protagonist command a group of "intelligent" martial arts techniques and divine artifacts in battle is incredibly entertaining. * Focused on Development: The protagonist is solely focused on resource gathering, with a pure and uncomplicated mindset, free from romantic subplots and a female lead. * Relaxing and Stress-Relieving: While ruthless and decisive, the automated system makes for a very relaxed reading experience. Watching the protagonist effortlessly grow stronger is a unique pleasure. Both novels are typical male-oriented "power fantasy" novels: fast-paced, thrilling battles, unique settings, and perfectly avoiding romance. They are perfect for relaxation and stress relief, allowing you to enjoy the pure thrill of leveling up. (Don't be limited by their ratings; new books generally have low ratings!!!)

    The protagonist transmigrates to a high-martial arts world and awakens his cheat ability, the "Mysterious Impermanence Record," at the age of nineteen. He gains supernatural powers by capturing monsters and can even level up and join the 749 faction, sweeping through everything in his path. From then on, the protagonist, clad in a mysterious robe with Black and White Impermanence fluttering behind him, leads a band of ghostly soldiers carrying the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, plunging headlong into the Night Parade of a Hundred Ghosts with a sinister grin. There is no female lead and no romantic subplots.
