   Dear all my godparents, please take a look at this book. Aside from the first chapter being a bit long-winded and setting up, the rest is incredibly exciting. Please persevere and finish the second chapter. If you don't like it, feel free to criticize me. This book is entirely handwritten; I've poured a tremendous amount of effort into it. I know hard work doesn't guarantee success, and relying on sympathy won't get you anywhere. I just want to give my work a chance. The following is an excerpt from the novel. If you like it, please take a look. I, Tianjiao, would like to express my sincere gratitude to all my godparents. Content: As Liu Yu stretched out her hands, the void behind her trembled violently, and a nine-tailed fox phantom, tens of feet tall, suddenly appeared, radiating a terrifying, savage pressure. Then, Liu Yu clasped her hands together, and the nine-tailed fox phantom behind her simultaneously extended its front paws, slamming them together against the incoming death energy spear. Boom! The death energy spear shattered between the fox's claws, turning into a thick cloud of black mist, which was easily dispersed by the nine-tailed fox phantom's gentle breath. Xu Feng laughed and clapped, "Impressive, impressive! As expected of a Qi Transformation Realm cultivator... Even more wonderful than I expected." He licked his lips, "Only prey like you is worth tasting." With that, he wiped the smile from his face and turned to the remaining ghost generals, "What are you all standing there for? Attack!" As soon as he finished speaking, the six ghost generals, except for Qian Yuan, transformed into six streaks of black mist and shot straight towards the cultivators except for Liu Yu and her group of nine. The next moment, desperate screams rose and fell as one cultivator after another was grabbed by the throat and lifted off the ground by the ghost generals. Their blood and yang energy were rapidly drained from their bodies by the ghosts, their bodies quickly withering away until they became empty-eyed, gaping corpses, carelessly tossed into pools of blood. The remaining surviving cultivators, driven mad by the prospect of death, launched a fierce attack on the ghost generals. In an instant, all sorts of hidden supernatural powers and magical treasures were revealed, and the terrifying energy fluctuations made this already ruined place even worse. The earth was torn open with bottomless ravines, and rubble, severed limbs, and fragments of magical treasures were mixed together and turned into dust in the violent energy turbulence.

    With its wildly imaginative plot and hilariously contrasting elements, the ancient demon lord Chonglou awakens after a three-thousand-year slumber, only to be reduced to an "ancient artifact." Forced to attend school and write papers, he effortlessly solves scientific puzzles and seals rifts in other worlds—a truly exhilarating story. The invincible protagonist setting subtly masks a core of loneliness and responsibility. The clash between cultivation and technology, along with the conspiracies and plot twists spanning millennia, makes this story utterly captivating and addictive!

    # Highly Recommended for Book Suffering🔥Realistic Era Heroine | "Spring Breeze in Winter" Who understands! Tired of rebirth with golden fingers and mindless face-slapping wish-fulfillment novels? I've found this down-to-earth Shanghai-style entrepreneurial novel! 😭 Set in a Shanghai alleyway in the 1990s, the protagonist, Xu Chunfeng, grew up in the mire of male chauvinism. Her uncle's family constantly exploited her, her mother favored her younger brother, and one hardship after another plagued her family. On the day of her college entrance exam, she missed the exam to save her best friend, shattering her dream of going to university💔 She sadly parted ways with her childhood sweetheart, Li Dongdong, her youthful love defeated by reality. Starting as a saleswoman in a clothing store, she rose step by step into the foreign trade industry; then she encountered her mother being scammed and incurring huge debts, losing all her savings in the financial crisis, and being cheated out of her job by her own uncle, experiencing several setbacks in her life. There were no cheat codes, no lucky breaks, she gritted her teeth and endured all the hardships✨ After awakening, she no longer compromised and tolerated, breaking free from the shackles of her original family. Seizing the opportunities of the times, she and her partner embark on a cross-border e-commerce business in apparel. Leveraging the Belt and Road Initiative, they sell Chinese-made clothing overseas, resisting malicious suppression from foreign capital and becoming dazzling female entrepreneurs. The twenty-year love-hate relationship between childhood sweethearts is incredibly touching! The male lead isn't a domineering CEO; he's an ordinary person who grew up following the rules, defying societal norms for love, giving up high-paying jobs and stock options to endure hardship alongside the female lead. Their mutual devotion, long-awaited reunion, and enduring love are anything but artificial. The book depicts the wave of layoffs, alleyway demolitions, the rise of foreign trade, and the internet revolution, brimming with the atmosphere of the era. Family entanglements, reconciliation, female empowerment, and the everyday realities of life are all vividly portrayed. The characters are lively, with both pain and warmth, and the story has a powerful impact! ✅ No rebirth | No system | Realistic | Female growth | Urban entrepreneurship | Historical setting | Childhood sweetheart reunion. Sisters who enjoy reading about ordinary people striving against the tides of time and strong female protagonists building their careers, go for it! #BookRecommendationForSuffering#RealisticPeriodNovel#FemaleEntrepreneurialProtagonist#ChildhoodSweets#FemaleAwakening

    This one is pretty good. It features a few countries and armies that still have a presence in post-apocalyptic stories. If you're looking for a more realistic post-apocalyptic novel, you can give it a try.
