Shuangyue's Reading Garden
Please save and follow the list. I update it daily. Wandering alone in a sea of books can leave you feeling lost. You don’t know where to find a good book, or whether a particular book is right for you. I hope that whenever you open a book, you’ll find a moment of peace and quiet that belongs to you, lose yourself in one wonderful story after another, and forget all your worries. Shuangyue mainly features books that have been published, primarily fantasy and xianxia, with some urban fiction and

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.
A Thousand Readers, a Thousand Hamlets! I Hope My Reading List Has Something You'll Love
There are hidden gems, decent reads, abandoned stories, completed novels, and ongoing series. Come on in, I’ll keep updating the list! I’ve read every one of these myself, so you can trust me! I’m no good at writing, though, so I’ll spare you the embarrassment. I’ve personally put them all to the test, so rest assured!

If you don't worship the Three Pure Ones, don't revere Taoism, don't wear Taoist robes, don't keep long hair, and don't cultivate virtue and Taoism, then what kind of Taoist are you? Do you really think that Taoists are just sorcerers who catch ghosts and drive corpses? First read the scriptures, then practice the Dharma, and finally learn the techniques.
What a lively book review section! I understand the author's understanding of Taoists. Respecting Heaven and Earth and honoring ancestors is orthodox Taoist thought. True Taoists do not respect the Three Pure Ones. In Taoist thought, there are nine heavens, and the Three Pure Ones refer to the Upper Azure Heaven within those nine heavens.
The author has already explained that the protagonist comes from a prominent family, and the arrangement is reasonable. This collection of ghost movies is mainly composed of films featuring Uncle Nine's supernatural and magical techniques. Uncle Nine belongs to the Heavenly Way Sect, which mainly focuses on respecting the Heavenly Lord and the ancestral master in their cultivation.
Is there a Date Mystery? I really like Ma Xiaoling 😍
Predict the word count of this book
I made this post on August 1, 2020: This book will be abandoned around 500,000 or 700,000 words. Waiting...
I'm fed up. If you can't accept the setting, just read another book. Why insist on dragging it into reality? If you like authentic Taoist settings, go read something that fits your criteria. It's like this kind of book has to have a completely uniform setting. I really can't stand reading the book review section anymore.
This is trash; it keeps talking about cultivation and spouts Buddhist nonsense.
I'll give him a thousand yuan and have him delete that post by Master Weisheng. I find him disgusting.
The origins and timeline of the Three Pure Ones in Taoism. Zhang Ling of the Eastern Han Dynasty inherited the Huang-Lao Daoism of the Han Dynasty and founded the Celestial Masters Daoist sect. He used Huang-Lao teachings to educate the religions of the ethnic minorities in western Shu, and Laozi naturally became the leader of the new sect.
I feel like people in the comments section are always bringing Taoist principles from the real world into this novel. Does a powerful world have to be governed by real-world rules? Are things in the real world necessarily correct? Why are you arguing about writing a novel? What's the real world like? Why don't you guys go and argue about it in other novels?
