Endless Fortuitous Encounters
To be honest, I rarely read xianxia and have only tried a few. I feel that xianxia really tests an author's writing skills. So I haven't added many books. If you know any good xianxia stories, please recommend them in the comments so I can share them with everyone. Let's revisit the appeal of xianxia together!

Currently Reading, Recommended for You. Hope You Enjoy!
I started reading wuxia in fourth grade in 1994. The first book I read was Gu Long's The Legendary Siblings, in traditional Chinese. I read it backwards, looking up every character in the dictionary, and it took me an entire semester to finish. I started reading on Qidian in 2005. I read everything except romance and anime-related stories! This list is just for the books I'm following now. I hope there are others who enjoy them as much as I do!

The subject matter is quite interesting, but unfortunately it subtly suggests the uselessness of education, and the protagonist's constant fantasies of getting rich overnight without doing anything made it a bit difficult for me to watch. I came to see a Qi cultivator, traveling the North Sea in the morning and Cangwu in the evening, riding the wind on a sword across the land, not to see a dropout slacker fantasizing about getting rich overnight and complaining about the injustice of the world.
It's rare to see an author advertising their book when I'm experiencing a reading slump; and it's actually quite good! I'm so lucky!
Taking money from a scammer and getting it back is fine, but openly and honestly swallowing that money from a scammer just doesn't feel right in line with the whole cultivation world!
In the book, the protagonist thinks math and English are useless for the future and doesn't want to study them. Seriously? And English aside, didn't the protagonist previously want to learn his master's Liu Ren divination? What's with ignoring math???? (Laughs)
I am a martial arts practitioner, how do you pronounce the middle one? 😰
It was a really good novel, but somehow it went downhill as I read on. Did it turn into an urban treasure hunting story? It's so boring now!
I get the feeling that the protagonist is a Taoist priest disguised as a Qi cultivator, and that he practices Taoist methods.
Does Qi really exist? I first saw this character in the anime/manga series *Under One Person*, it wasn't mentioned before.
It's really too far removed from ordinary people's lives, but keep it up, author! I only have one recommendation vote for you for now 👍, keep trying!
It was abandoned, what a pity. This ending would have been better if it had never happened.
You give up as soon as you see jade gambling stones. Do you think you're fit to cultivate Taoism?
