Over the past few years, I have been following these books from beginning to end. They are growing, inspiring, funny, exciting, crazy, and all kinds of genres.
The following few novels are pretty good in terms of character design, world view and plot so far, and most of them don't have too many sticking points. There may be some, but the sticking points will be less compared to some other Tomato novels, and they are all masterpieces that these authors are good at. However, the plots and context of these novels are relatively clear, and the ratings of these books will be slightly lower than the actual beauty of these books. I think these books are underestimated. Of course, the above opinions are just some of my random thoughts. If you have different ideas, you can correct them in the comment area, but please do not curse.
❶The protagonist of the first book is born with mediocre qualifications, has no immortal luck, no background and backing, and is at the bottom of the cruel world of immortality. There is no exhilarating feeling of cheating and crushing all the way. The whole process is a struggle to survive. Every progress is hard-won and every step is extremely hard. There is no outrageous golden finger, no chance from heaven, it all depends on your own perseverance and persistence in practice. The writing style is simple, the world view is realistic, and the difficulties of cultivating immortality are thoroughly described. Compared with those cool articles that start invincibly, this book returns to the difficulty of cultivating immortality itself. The protagonist is small and ordinary, limited in every aspect, the plot has a smooth rhythm, the content is not watery, and the characterization is very vivid. It perfectly explains that ordinary people's cultivation of immortality is never based on talent, but on the will to persist and refuse to bow down. ❷The second book is different from most formulaic fantasy novels. The protagonist of this book is blind when he appears. He is in a very poor situation. He has no background to back him, and there are no exaggerated golden finger adventures. He relies entirely on his keen perception and calm mind to make his way through the world alone. The story mainly revolves around the protagonist's journey along the way. The writing style is plain and comfortable, with both the chivalrous and unrestrained chivalry of the world and the fireworks of human life. The author writes the senses, inner thoughts and behavior of the blind protagonist very realistically. He also eloquently talks about the warmth and coldness of the people he encounters along the way, the grievances and grudges in the world, and all the various situations in the world. The overall plot has a slow pace, there is no villain who mindlessly crushes monsters or forcibly subdues his wits, and the characters do things very logically. The protagonist is wandering alone and at a low point, but still has his own character. The further you read, the more interesting it becomes. The setting is novel and the writing is very stable. It is an underrated treasure novel. ❸The third novel is tired of reading those cool novels where you are invincible from the beginning and have to fight and kill every day. This novel is really good. The protagonist accidentally awakens the immortality system, has unlimited lifespan, and will never die. There is no need to fight desperately everywhere, there are no heaven-defying opportunities, and there is no need to compete with others everywhere. The rules of the system are very simple. As long as you stay alive, your strength will automatically increase. The longer you live, you will be invincible in the world in the end. In the early stage, all the geniuses had high cultivation and outstanding talents, but only the protagonist looked ordinary and unremarkable, and everyone looked down on him. But no one knows that as time goes by, no matter how powerful the genius is, he will die, the ancient powers, the gods and demons in the world will eventually perish, and only the protagonist will live forever. Everyone else is competing for the momentary peak, and the protagonist just needs to survive the long years steadily. As time goes by, all the strong men in the past have all come to an end and disappeared, and everything in the world is constantly changing. Only the protagonist has survived, and his strength has become stronger step by step. From an ordinary person who no one cares about, he slowly crushes all the strong men in the world and reaches the top of the world. The overall development is very refreshing, the rhythm of the plot is very comfortable, the whole process is not suffocating and depressing, the world view is grand, and it has a sense of the vicissitudes of time. It perfectly explains that immortality is the strongest support. As long as you keep living, you will eventually be invincible. ❹In the fourth book, I have read too many cookie-cutter apocalyptic stories. Almost all of them are about human protagonists surviving in desperate situations, killing and becoming stronger, hoarding goods and building bases, fighting monsters and upgrading to save the world. The plots and routines are highly overlapping, and I have already become tired of reading them. This novel completely breaks out of the inherent apocalyptic framework and brings an extremely fresh and unique perspective - the protagonist is not a surviving human being, but a zombie born in the apocalypse. There is no suffocating existential crisis in the book, no hearty fighting counter-attack, no love-hate entanglement of power and intrigue, and no Shuangwen-style gold-finger crushing. The whole story has lost the inherent bloodiness, irritability and excitement of apocalyptic literature, and stripped away all the dramatic ups and downs of the plot. As a zombie heroine, she is in a desolate and dilapidated world. She does not actively provoke humans, does not pursue power evolution, has no lofty goals, no obsession with grudges, and no desire to conquer the world. She just walked quietly among the ruins, watching the changing of the seasons, watching the city slowly become deserted, and living a long life slowly and peacefully in her own way in the collapsed human world. Niche, novel, cool and healing, it is a completely unique work in apocalyptic literature, and a unique and clear stream in apocalyptic literature.
