Novels like Lord of Mysteries
What Qidian readers list beside Lord of Mysteries most often.
Zhou Mingrui wakes as Klein Moretti in a Victorian-style world of steam, guns and airships, where people gain powers by drinking potions along fixed pathways and risk losing their minds. It is a slow-building mystery of secret societies, old gods and a hidden history. Readers who liked it look for careful worldbuilding, an occult tone and a power system with clear rules and costs.
