1. 1 玄 Xuanhuan: I’m Invincible with One Sword, So Do as You Please 玄幻：我，一剑无敌，你们请随意 Loves Doubanjiang爱吃豆瓣酱Eastern Fantasy560k WordsCompleted Synopsis: (Invincible protagonist + no female lead + decisive killing + no System + overwhelming power fantasy) After Qin Yu is trapped in an unknown, pitch-black world for ten thousand years, he finally raises the sword in his hand. A flash of sword light cleaves through the darkness, and he returns to the world! When he looks back, he has already become invincible with a single sword!

   Reader note

   These two books have no female lead, no romantic pairing, and no harem, but I highly recommend the second one. It's dark and seemingly harmless, but the protagonist is known as a madman and a god, consistently strong, never wastes words, and isn't a saint. He can see through others' plans at a glance, possessing exceptional intelligence. He's incredibly powerful; for example, he can learn a martial arts manual that would take others over a decade to master with just one glance. He can also absorb other people's techniques in combat, making him virtually invincible. I recommend the second one. He seems harmless and dislikes being challenged or mocked. He roams the martial world, constantly eliminating evil and demons. His energy-absorbing technique is exceptionally strong; he can absorb anything except the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. I give it a full five stars; this is exactly my taste. He's not a saint, never ruthless, and won't show mercy just because you're a girl. He constantly absorbs other people's true energy—superb! Highly recommended!

   My recommendation is a story without a female lead or harem, which is perfect for watching, and it mainly features Taoist priests exorcising ghosts.

    This was fine; even the King of Hell feared him, and he grew stronger by slaying demons and eliminating evil. However, the woman following him—referring to Ling'er—seemed to have little affection for the protagonist, but it was still quite unsettling.

    I also recommend this one, "The Celestial Master." It's a bit short, but he's amazing—a strong character all the way through.
