Legendary Masterpieces
One reading list, a lifetime of memories. With books for company, and friends by my side.

Everyone defines that differently, because we’re all individuals. This list holds so many of my

Science meets fantasy: a vision of the future, a world that might exist. (Recommended science fiction I've read and saved.) Thinking back, I remember how excited I was to follow books as a student. Reading Terror Infinity in particular was thrilling and got my blood pumping. It became a classic and the forerunner of the infinite-flow genre. Later, I found Forty-Six Billion Years of Evolution and The Record of Unusual Creatures by Yuandong. I was hooked on both, and have kept following the autho

I have been reading online novels for thirteen years, and Fang Xiang's Legend of the Master, Ka Tu, and World of Cultivation are still my three favorites. No matter in terms of creative logic, world view, character design or plot development, it perfectly suits my taste. It is not difficult to see from the reviews of this book that many have re-read it, and some have even read it ten times. It shows that after reading the full text, it is difficult not to praise this book. If someone dislikes this novel because it is too early without even reading it, then I can only say that you have missed a treasure. The new novels in recent years are either too powerful, or have a too strong sense of world fragmentation, or have unpleasant characters, or are too impetuous. Although there are still good articles, I can no longer find novels that I thought would make me so "amazing" that I would even read them three, four, or five times. There are very few protagonists in today's novels who have such self-discipline and hard work. The protagonists in most books nowadays just rely on a golden finger to become stronger without much hardship or effort. In other words, the author did not write about their efforts, which makes people feel that the protagonists are nothing if they lose their golden fingers. I still like the hard-working + talented protagonists like Chen Mu and Ye Zhong who are down-to-earth and step-by-step. They give me the feeling that even if they are not talented enough, they can still succeed with this perseverance. They are very positive... And IQ is online (there are too many novices with low IQ), they are decisive in killing (not a holy father or indiscriminate killing), and they do not open a harem. I really like these points. Fang Xiang's several books have a great influence on me. I have also written a novel of one to two million words, and the writing style, world view settings, and plot routines were all influenced by Fang Xiang. Later, when I stopped writing novels (I am an art practitioner), I still carefully set up the character's background and worldview when it came to painting. It's a pity that Fang Xiang has many other things to do now and can no longer write novels full-time. Finally, I would like to mention that many people say that Katu is unfinished. In fact, I don't think it is unfinished. Basically everything that should be explained in the main plot has been explained. It just lacks some warm stories after the war and the follow-up daily life of important characters. But to be honest, these daily routines do not affect the main plot (although I also want to see it) I must say that the ending is too hasty, too fast, and it feels like the pace has suddenly accelerated from Baiyuan Mansion. According to the previous normal pace, Baiyuan Mansion can still write twenty chapters, and then the war with Mohadi Domain + exploration of Mohadi Territory will write thirty chapters, the war with Tang Hanpei, the unification of the Federation, and the research of mysterious cards will be another thirty chapters, and there will be one chapter to wrap up and explain everyone's subsequent development. If you add eighty chapters like this, it will be perfect.
NB, as expected, Fang Fang is still the same eunuch as always, a professional unfinished king. Every book is a good story, but there is no amazing ending. Alas, when will the title of unfinished king be removed?
Ka Tu is definitely the most classic novel I have ever read, but I have to say that the ending is too hasty. But the situation of a person being driven to a dead end by life step by step is really thought-provoking. We are not Chen Mu, but Katu wants to tell us: Don't give up thinking, stay calm in any situation I admire Fang Xiangda very much, the characterization is very detailed, no, to be precise, it is very touching, touching the soul, and impressive. However, there are indeed some holes that have not been filled. For example, there are still many holes that have not been filled in Faya, the six majors, and the three realms. If Fang wants to do so, he is very much looking forward to releasing a side story.
Disgusting unfinished story—— At about 90% of the progress of the book, it seems that it has finally begun to climax (if it were a good writer, the progress at this time should be only 60% at most, or even less), and then under the author's arrangement, the protagonist seems to start to open up the second battlefield... The second battlefield can be developed properly, but it ends up being written as a branch line. Therefore, of the remaining 10% or so chapters, more than half are written about this branch line that is basically irrelevant to the main plot, and the last few chapters are ended hastily. The various foreshadowings that were spent on the previous chapters have all become useless garbage in the end.
I watched it many years ago, and it felt like it opened the door to a new world. Come back now to make up your tickets~
The belated second update is still wonderful but still regretful!
Ka Tu read it a long time ago when I was in school, and the last two times I read it, it is still very exciting, but I still feel that it is a bit unfinished. Fang Xiangda's concept of this book is wonderful, but there are still some regrets in many places. For example, the basic setting of the existence form of the cards should be more reasonable, even if it is to make up a far-fetched scientific reason to explain the existence of the cards, because after all, the overall setting of Ka Tu is still science fiction and not fantasy novel. The portrayal of most of the characters in the article is very distinctive, and it is not the kind of white novel where the villain is a low-level and mentally retarded. However, the personality changes of some characters are a bit sudden, such as Tang Hanpei's sudden change in Luoyou City. Why is he so eager to seize power and change? What does his brother Black King want to do after he dominates the Mohadi Domain? Didn't he send someone to contact Tang Hanpei during the cooperation with Moying? Why did he finally ask Chen Mu about Tang Hanpei? It's a bit unclear to explain, and it was indeed a bit messy in the later stage. I feel that Fang Dada's main plot idea may have been revised while writing later, and the changes were somewhat contradictory. However, this does not affect the fact that this is a masterpiece full of imagination, inspiration, and emphasizing that efforts will reap rewards. The growth history of a small person like Chen Mu, who rises from the grassroots step by step, does not rely on charity from others, and does not rise to the top in one step, is very in line with the excitement of us ordinary people and has a strong sense of substitution. Overall, it is exciting, but there are still regrets, especially the decisive battle at the end. Chen Mu's choice is in line with the setting, but Tang Hanpei's fighting method is a bit unreasonable. Artificial intelligence appears very suddenly. Even if it does appear, it is unlikely to appear in Tang Hanpei's force. Even if they have 4 notebooks related to card weapons, as a previous book friend commented, Chen Mu's force with the card theory is the most likely to have artificial intelligence. Maybe with twice as much text, the ending in the later stages will be better. Just like the Legend of the Master, the pace obviously speeds up in the later stages, which always leaves people with a regretful ending. There are still many things I want to say and ask, but I don't know where to start at the moment. I am speaking from my personal feelings. Discussions are welcome. I rarely post book reviews. If you don't like it, please don't comment. Thank you!
I want to write fan fiction
I feel that in that era, it was a good book with good creativity. In today's frivolous novel era, (with various bloodline theories and rebirth systems), it becomes more and more interesting the more I read it, but it is a pity that it disappeared later. Planning to write a parallel maybe
I hope there will be more card novels🙂🙂🙂
I think there should be many people abandoning the book because the protagonist doesn't know the card market and just sells the cards at a low price. Tsk
It's a brainless and cool article, and I can't read it without any brains.
I have just read dozens of chapters Regardless of what happens later Let's just take the front part The writing style is a bit poor, but it's okay But the beginning is so fast that it's recommended to read it slowly In line with the principle of if you're good, go ahead, if not, get out If the writing can be more rigorous and easy to understand It's not too late to criticize After all, there is a complicated setting in it Is there a novel? The author is not here to write a paper As long as you can understand it Many of the settings are very interesting It feels like it has opened up a new power system It is an excellent work and an incredible book.
Very wonderful novel. Each of the main characters is very three-dimensional and worth reading. It's a pity that the pace was a bit fast at the end, leaving people unsatisfied.
The idea is very good, and the setting is still very good, but the development process of the plot has many overlaps with "Legend of the Master"
Ka Tu, a classic among classics, Fang Xiang is such a master, from Legend of Masters to Ka Tu, it has always been my favorite novel!
I was very, very satisfied with the first 95% of it. Why did it suddenly disappear? 😆 This is definitely a mess, otherwise at least 20% of it could be written.
I would like to ask if this book will be outdated now, and can it still be read? After all, it is an ancient book
I ate a ton of Xiang, hey hey, no one can see me_§:з)))∠)_
I watched Katu more than ten years ago and was really shocked at the time! But the ending is really... Well, it's still unfinished😥 From then on, I embarked on a path of no return and searched for a book with a similar setting to Katu for ten years. Similar styles, yes, and many. There are many similar elements. But there just wasn't the one I was looking for. In the end, I had to write one myself😅. It can be considered a fan, but not quite like a fan... I would like to express my obsession with Katu😡
Can this book be considered a classic? Although I also admit that the concept of the card world is indeed novel and unique, the plot is very unreasonable. A protagonist with such strong sensory control is always scared and covered in cold sweat. When someone finds out, he is thought to be sick. He is so high-profile in school and is easily discovered to be good at planning. The same is true when facing Hong Tao. The opponent is just a student, and his hostility is easily seen. Do you want to show it so obviously? I have an enmity with the Zuo family out of nowhere, and I don't know how the protagonist managed to grow up alive. Shouldn't tolerance be a basic skill? He was so high-profile in the Ning family, but they refused to let him go, and he didn't know why he was so high-profile, so he was forced to run away in the end. . . Shouldn't he just complete the task in a low-key manner and then run away? It was even more ridiculous when facing Bowen. He was found to hold his breath for something as trivial as sesame. Can he have some control? Such a mentally retarded protagonist would have been dead in other books, and he could only survive thanks to the author's golden finger.
We still don't know the names of the forces behind Faya
How should I put it, after reading almost two hundred chapters, the protagonist gives people a very uncomfortable feeling, which is very ridiculous. It seems that he only knows how to make cards, and does not understand some basic common sense of the outside world. Since you are in the world of card making, you don't understand some basic things, no, to be precise, you don't understand. My sister, something very deadly has been planted in her body, but she doesn't feel the slightest sense of crisis. She doesn't want to solve it, and is still thinking about card making. What is the most outrageous thing? Are you kidding me when you think about living a peaceful life? Can you bring me peace in such a dangerous world? Don't think about how to improve your own strength, but think about making cards when you get older. Fortunately, you have lived at the bottom since you were a child. Don't you understand what kind of world this is? The weak eat the strong! The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade. The protagonist lacks the subjective initiative to improve his strength, which makes it uncomfortable to watch.
It's good-looking, indeed wonderful. Even 26 years old, I can still be moved by the writing. But what is the situation at the end? The dragon's head and the rat's tail. This is the only regrettable part.
The protagonist doesn't kill women, this is so disgusting 😰
I read Chapter 150 and can't stand it anymore. Every time a pig's foot gets into trouble, it's his own fault. People say that one learns from the experience. The devil girl solved him for the first time. He changed his identity and studied in school for 1-2 years. If you don't have money, just repair the card. If you want to make money, you can just repair the card. You know that there are good uses in the loach card. You have been thinking about not being in the limelight and not attracting attention. Just make money outside school and slowly develop. Isn't this game stable? I'll give you a chance. You're useless. Once you complete the card repair task in chapter 200 of working as a laborer in the Ning family, you will be free. A good platform will come from the sky to give you a good place for further study. You have to work here. People don't treat you like a slave. Eat, drink, live, freely, have a lot of materials to practice, and there is a library for you to study. There are no enemies here. Isn't it good for you to grow and develop here? It is normal to repair some ordinary cards. As long as you have no skills and wait until the mission is completed, you will most likely be free. Then you can leave if you want. The author will make another Yushuo card. Well, if you want to escape later, the pig's foot will also be a mess. I can only say that the plot here is the author's fault. Any other author will probably write the pig's foot to reflect deeply and never make such a low-level mistake next time, and then cleverly escape and hide to develop
Not a book worth reading, overhyped
I read this book three times, and every time I gave up because of a fight in the classroom. This is a reminder to those who come here to remind me that this book is full of all the shortcomings of old-fashioned novels.
The Thinking of the Strong Suddenly I understood why this is a masterpiece that can be called a classic. Not only the concept and world construction, but more importantly, the strong thinking conveyed through the protagonist. No matter what kind of difficulties you face, be indomitable, never escape, be brave enough to face it, accept the reality, adapt to the current situation, constantly improve yourself, and face it positively! In life, we will always encounter dissatisfaction, distress, sadness, pain, and disappointment, which are not even desperate situations. We feel that we are going to be defeated and escape. Many people forget their dreams and avoid their responsibilities. I think the author wants to convey to readers through the protagonist Fang Xiang a true strong mind, to bravely face real sufferings, and to dare to take on all responsibilities. Although it is hard, everything is worth it in the end!
Most of the people who are good at writing have a literary problem and even like to write greenly. The smaller half who are not sick almost all have problems with updating 😂
Animation
I have read Katu six or seven times. I think the early writing was really unique. Why did the person suddenly run away? I felt uncomfortable when I was going to burn incense😣
After reading Katu, I am still not satisfied that it took me fifteen years to write my own book.
I saw the physical book of Katu in the Xinhua Bookstore one Friday night in the first year of middle school. There is not even a first volume, but a second volume starting from the plot of the Ning family, attracted by the cards and world that Fang Xiang described in a big way. I reread it every two or three years. I enjoyed reading it, especially the part about digital series auctions, but the ending was also a bit disappointing. These two experiences have left me with unfinished reading for more than ten years. I have also tried to find meal replacements, but the card-making novels I have read have not let me understand this unexplained charm. I welcome everyone to recommend a few books. Now, I feel that although my accumulation and experience are not very rich, I can start writing on my own. I will continue Katuli's concept of "cards are not only used in combat, but also used in all aspects of social life", retain the setting of the only two training professions of card maker and card repairer, reshape the history and battle card system, and write a book about Katu with an oriental charm that takes into account technological development and humanistic care by describing the growth of several teenagers. The above is my understanding of Katu. As I grow older, I feel that the subject of Katu can be so comprehensive and in-depth. Please allow me to stand on Katu's shoulders rashly. I hope to write this book well. The first book I wrote in my spare time was not for the market, so I won't cut the book. It was dedicated to myself and all the readers who love Katu as much as I do. (Because it was too long ago and the book was lost, my memory of the physical book may be biased.)
