   That has to be this book! I was blown away after reading just the first volume! The world-building in this book is incredibly vast, you can feel it after reading just the first volume! Although it's not very long, I think it's a masterpiece. Judging from the title of the second volume, it seems like it's going to delve into extraterrestrial insectoids?

   This is hard to say, I dare not gamble. Based on my taste, I'll recommend two books that I really like. The first one is an infinite flow novel with many original plot designs, which is great. The protagonist is also well-developed, and it's not an invincible novel with any cheat codes, so it's very exciting. The second one, if you want to read it, don't read the comments section, just go straight to the female-oriented novel. The writing style definitely has some flaws, but what I really like is its setting. The female protagonist gives birth to underworld officials, from the City God all the way to the Underworld Emperor (she should rise to the Underworld Emperor later, but it hasn't been updated yet). It's a very satisfying supernatural novel. However, many people in the comments section are debating whether there's a male lead or whether the female lead is too saintly, but as I read further, I felt that it subtly explained these issues. So I'm recommending it here. I've also recommended quite a few other novels. If you're interested, you can click on my profile picture to check them out. I'm a purebred bookworm, not a human. All my book recommendations are done out of love. Please forgive me if they don't suit your taste.

4. 604 武EN Wuxia: What Kind of Godlike Talent Is This? 武侠：这都什么神仙天赋 Ma Jia马夹Male-Channel Fanfiction534k WordsCompleted The Great Qian Dynasty spans nine provinces.

The young man says his name is Zhang Junbao. He’s a lay disciple of Shaolin, falsely accused by the temple of secretly learning martial arts and driven out. His master died protecting him.

   Zhang Sanfeng and the Simulation Brother are pretty good. Zhang Sanfeng is basically a younger version of Zhang Sanfeng who met a good brother who supported him from the beginning. This brother even went so far as to beg for him so he could focus on martial arts training. Later, after gaining fame, he joined the Taoist sect and traveled around seeking martial arts knowledge. The Simulation Brother book, although it's a bit long, is still readable. At least the protagonist's starting village boss is really powerful [facepalm]. Who has a good guy whose starting boss is their father, and the number one person under heaven?
