【Brilliant Stars】That Summer Night, We Gazed at the Milky Way
👌☝🖐 Every novel worth recognizing is a thrilling vortex leading to a real world, capturing a moment of glory as its author ascends to godhood. A good novel should be a vivid world that runs on its own, with an internally consistent logic. These fictional worlds are like stars of varying brightness, shining across the heavens. This list gathers a selection from that galaxy for your consideration. The most important criterion for evaluating a novel here is its 【world-building completeness】. For no

A Twelve-Year Veteran Reader
Mostly urban fiction and sci-fi, with very little anime-style fantasy. I hear the description has to be long, so I'll keep chatting! I've been reading for many years and have tried all kinds of genres. At this point, I'm so desperate for something to read that anything over 500,000 words just isn't worth following! So this list will mainly feature promising new books, really new ones, or else very niche titles. It all depends on my taste! If you'd like to recommend something, feel free to advert

🎊After three cups, I readily make promises, and even the Five Sacred Mountains seem light. There are many kinds of protagonists, but I prefer those who are bold, free-spirited, and act according to their nature, so I made this reading list. ✨This list uses star ratings for recommendations. Three stars ★ means hay, good for passing the time. Four stars ★ means grain, worth reading. Five stars ★ means immortal grass, highly recommended.

I won't add any dumb books to this list, because I really hate them!

I just realized I'm really picky about novels! ( ,,ʘωʘ,,) I like decisive protagonists who don't hesitate to kill.

Let's sort out the combat power system of this book. I think the author doesn't want to write a book with clear levels and upgrades for fighting monsters. After all, martial arts are not immortals, and they are not so inhuman. Different realms are like two kinds of creatures. People will die when they are killed, just like the peerless masters in Gu Long's novels will be killed by beggars on the roadside. Various factors will be taken into account when it comes to life and death, so the combat power system of this book is very vague. At present, this book plus what Kou Dao has written (same author, many elements are the same), if you insist on dividing it, the training of a warrior can be divided into three parts: boxing, physical training, and spirit. Boxing is the level of learning of the type of boxing practiced by the warrior, such as beginner, minor, and advanced. However, the four major boxing skills cannot be directly linked to combat effectiveness before the boxing is advanced. After all, there are differences in people's innate physiques, and boxing relies on the body, and random boxing It's not surprising that he killed his master. The purpose of martial arts training is not only to kill people, but also to pursue the evolution of the essence of life. Therefore, boxing is just a means. In order to develop "jin", the four major exercises are started. Mastering the strength of boxing means mastering the four tips, that is, the tongue, teeth, and nails begin to show strange phenomena. The next step is to train the body. The boxing training section is described in detail in Kou Dao, but the protagonist of this book is a big boss in his debut, so I will use the plot of the previous book to talk about it. The four major refinements of muscles, bones, skin and flesh are in no particular order. Note that the mastery of the four branches of boxing is not the same as the four major refinements. Most people only master one branch, and then refine the body of this branch. A warrior who has completed the four major refinements can already be called a monster, transcending the category of human beings. The four major refinements cannot be practiced immediately after practicing one. It requires a spiritual breakthrough. Sincerely, as God (the first level of body refining to achieve perfection), Sincerity into the Void (at least the second level of refining), Human Immortal Will (that is, the demigod in this book), this is also the upgrade route of ordinary boxers, but this is different from cultivating immortals. Golden elixir does not need to build the foundation. These three are actually parallel, but the threshold of cultivation is different. It does not mean that high spiritual realm does not require physical training, and everyone knows We all know that the protagonist and his enemies are not ordinary people, and ordinary people cannot cultivate to the later realms, so it can be used as a reference. However, this is training, and the levels are quite clear. When it comes to fighting, boxing skills and physical training are very important. Especially in this world, there is more than just martial arts. There are ways to make up for the shortcomings. Before the protagonist is injured, he should probably be a master when holding a knife. Combat strength, sword skills and sword intention correspond to boxing skills and spirit. The art of weapons is the product of making up for the lack of physical strength of the human body. All the gaps in lethality caused by physical training during fighting are smoothed out by the sword. Of course, the endurance and life-saving ability brought about by physical training cannot be compensated by the sword. Life and death fights are dangerous, so the book always says that the protagonist will not live long. This is why. By the way, the art of weapons, that is, the use of weapons and boxing. Once you master the physical body to a certain extent, you can automatically and quickly master certain weapon skills. Therefore, most talented warriors practice boxing. However, before reaching the level of the four major trainings, everyone is still a mortal, so the art of weapons is a specialized killing technology. There are advantages. After all, boxing pursues the evolution of the essence of life, and the bones of mortals who have not yet transformed cannot be harder than iron. The protagonist is a boxing practitioner, and when he has not reached the mastery of the four major boxing techniques, he can double his combat power with a demon knife, and his strength can be increased tenfold if he specializes in weapons training (fourth senior brother or fifth senior brother). But it's different when you enter the Four Great Refinings. Because there is no four great refining systems in Alchemy in Japan, warriors can only merge with demons to become monsters, or become sword masters, using swords to make up for the fragility of the physical body. However, they are only at the level of the first of the Four Great Refinings, and the upper limit is not high. When the protagonist, the Four Great Refiners, was refining his bones, he could not use force because his bones were broken. He could only rely on the sword to exert his strength and could not get any further improvement. He discarded it after the injury. It can be speculated that at this time, he could only make up for the physical gap with monsters like the Four Great Refiners by relying on the weaponry skills, and more by relying on the mental state of the sword wielder. However, this book has a Shinto weapon system, and masters of the four major refinings can also gain increases when holding weapons. But if there is no weapon close to this level, for a pure boxer, there is not much difference between unarmed and armed. The above is a personal opinion and has nothing to do with the author. Additional refutations are welcome, but please do not use curse words in your refutations.
Chongmeng's book is very interesting and full of useful information. However, I personally feel that sometimes the most important thing about online novels is the plot, rather than the description of the key scenes. Chong Meng always piles some descriptions into a simple scene in one chapter, and jumps directly to the next scene in the next chapter, as if writing a script. . The plot is often broken, and some plots in the middle can sometimes only be inferred from the context. .
One thing to say, the author's description of martial arts is really great. Anyway, among the novels I have read, this is the best written by the author, followed by Cuckoo Bird.
There is nothing to say about Chong Da's writing style. Personally, I feel that Chong's Xianxia is not as good-looking as Chinese martial arts (new martial arts). If Chong Da writes another Dragon and Snake novel, he will definitely be able to become a god. If he can't handle a long novel, he can write Infinite Martial Arts or something like that. Watching the insects is a feast for the eyes.
🐛Dream boss cheats
Most popular authors only have one masterpiece, and there are very few who can maintain their progress. I haven't read much of Chong Meng's previous works, but this one is the best 👍
Pretending to be sophisticated and contrived, I couldn't hold on to the first three pictures and was too lazy to read them.
As a half-literate writer, I was very tired from reading it. After thinking about the reason, the author placed too many unfamiliar terminology and jargon, but lacked explanation and foreshadowing, and it was not introduced in a centralized manner, almost scattered in every chapter, so I always encountered inexplicable descriptions, which are indeed mysterious and cool. Maybe people who are familiar with Feng Shui and martial arts will read more smoothly, so I had to skip them all, and it does not seem to affect the main line.
There should be no more accurate ranking of combat power than mine.
Let me make a combat power ranking list! is my opinion about other people ( ) is my opinion about the protagonist. T0 Emperor of Heaven [No. 1 In the world but will die] T1 Top Ten of Heaven and Earth, Five Emperors (Protagonist's future realm) [Ancestor of a sect] [Just dozens of avenues] [Whoever the Emperor of Heaven says to kill will die] T3 Sword Immortal Human Emperor Tianmingzi [At most, it is just an incarnation of the will of heaven and will and rules of heaven, which should be considered a T3] [Sword Immortal combat power T3] [Human Emperor T3] T5 King of Dragon Veins (The protagonist's state when he fights the True God of Houtian Dao in 1V3) [Becomes crazy and becomes stronger, beating the true god] T6 The True God of Houtian Dao Yuanshen Taoist [There is no use except that the power cannot be used up, strength relies on Tao realm] T7 Martial Arts Becomes a God (The realm when the protagonist fights against the sons of Jiuyou) [There is no acquired way that is stronger than a demigod and weaker than a true god] T8 Flesh Demigod (The protagonist's realm in the later stage of the Dragon Seizing Game) [Weak chickens are mass-produced] T9 Jindan Taoist [The appearance is too early and there is no strong level, no matter it is the big or small world, it is a stretch] T10 Grandmaster (the protagonist fights against the demigod realm) [The appearance is so amazing that he is cannon fodder in the world] T11 First-class master (the protagonist seizes Xue Baohou's dragon vein realm) ) T12 () T13 Grass Mustard
The author can also only write about low martial arts, or write about unlimited flow, and keep firing map cannons. The fighting is very well written, but as for the high-level martial arts, it is destined to be less acceptable, and will become more and more similar to the prehistoric genre. If Gao Wu feels good, Pei Butu Gou is okay.
After the appraisal is completed, there is no doubt that the article is cool. Other enjoyable articles are enjoyable to read, but this kind of enjoyable articles are enjoyable to write by the author himself. So I really don't like this book, and the author doesn't care either.
