After all these years of reading, these are books I don't think are too bad.
☯ Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism 📿
Great is the origin of creation. All things draw their beginnings from it. Clouds move and rain falls, giving shape to the myriad things. The cycle of light and darkness reaches its end and beginning; the six lines take form in their proper time. Riding the six dragons, one may rule the heavens.
The Grand Eunuch's List
Books I put aside to build up a backlog always end up abandoned, so I think I've become a jinx. Come check out the eunuchs on my bookshelf. Remember these authors!!! They're all eunuchs! Not the kind without a lower half!!! Only abandoned books and those in danger of being abandoned can get on this list. Anyone thinking of abandoning their book is welcome too. These are the authors who dig a pit and never fill it in.

It's generally good, but the writing style feels out of touch with the times. It's as if ancient people are speaking like modern people, with the text filled with a lot of modern slang, which makes it feel awkward.
A classic fantasy novel that blends elements of fantasy and supernatural elements!
What a wonderful book! It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a masterpiece! First, the strengths: The characters are distinct and each has their own unique traits. The story is compelling and the plot flows smoothly. The writing style is fluent, unlike that of a newcomer. The concept of the monsters is refreshing! The author must have put a lot of effort into the novel's setting.
After reading a few chapters, Jiang Feng said, "Power is responsibility." That felt odd. The protagonist's power is something he cultivated himself; what does it have to do with them? I don't think they're any particularly virtuous people either! To put it bluntly, this is their own responsibility; why should they stand on moral high ground and demand things of others?
The book mentions an underworld, but reincarnation doesn't seem to exist. Since the protagonist is sent to this world to cultivate immortality, it suggests that immortality is possible in this world. It feels like the author has included some strange elements.
The world is supposed to be a stark black-and-white dichotomy, but people can't distinguish right from wrong in their actions. The darkness is filled with malice, while fire represents warmth and light. The prevailing theme is darkness. On a smaller scale, humanity has defeated demons and monsters, gaining a local advantage. However, the human world remains shrouded in darkness, devoid of light.
This is utterly nonsensical. It's filled with the four words: pretentious, foreshadowing, deduction, and mystery. It's all utterly worthless. The foreshadowing is nonexistent, the reasoning illogical, and the mystery borders on the absurd. Truly, a great "idea," a great "writing style," and utterly idiotic.
It deserves to flop. I couldn't stand watching it from the start. Putting everything else aside, at least the sentences should be coherent. Forget about foreshadowing or anything like that. The sentences aren't even coherent, so what foreshadowing is that?
You can't protect what you want to protect, you can't uphold what you want to uphold, and you're always walking in the footsteps of others' righteousness and rules. What kind of "cultivation" is this? Your child friend became a ghost, clearly conscious but not evil, yet you killed him. So, evil people can't do it? You have to follow the rules. Is this cultivation? Go see Su Zhou.
With great power comes great power and little responsibility.
There's a reason this book hasn't been very popular. I won't even bother with the first chapter; the first few chapters didn't grasp the key points well. Readers aren't looking for a story about being forced to join some organization. After introducing the cheat system, you should have written about how to use it to cultivate and strengthen yourself, and then how you could join the Underworld due…
