A Reading List for Those Who Don't Leech
I love sci-fi, especially flashy novels with wildly reimagined settings. There are some other interesting ones too.
Top Picks! Great Writing, No Beginner-Level Prose
This list collects quality novels with polished writing and plots that avoid the usual clichés, as well as some classic older works! Those classics will naturally have flaws if judged by today's standards, so if you're just looking to nitpick, don't bother. I'll occasionally reorganize the list based on title length and publication date.
A Closer Look
A roundup of the best books I've read. I'm a chaotic evil type, a classic menace, so this list leans toward dark stories.
A Reading List for the Twenty-Four Solar Terms
Works I've read and really enjoyed. I hope we can share these unusual stories and discuss the questions they raise. I won't give specific ratings, since different readers will reach different conclusions. It's better to see for yourself than to rely on what others say. I'll add recommended books if I've read them and think they're good. If a book isn't on the list, it just doesn't suit my current tastes. For now, the list is mostly historical and xianxia web novels, with a few science fiction, w
Uncanny Fiction Reading List
Too many female leads are a no for me. I only accept one female lead or none at all. The novels on this list are: 1. Strange fiction that was abandoned, but deserved better 2. Strange fiction that updates too slowly 3. A few completed works of strange fiction

Good Reads Worth Checking Out: Xianxia, Wuxia, and Fantasy
Life is finite, but knowledge has no bounds; the paths of reincarnation stretch without end. The earth has borders, but the sky has none; thoughts of life and death are boundless. The Dao has no end, thoughts have no bounds; I turn back from the mortal world and choose not to become an immortal.

I would like to make a suggestion. Since this work is based on history, it keeps making insinuations that true cultivation is rare, and those with high cultivation are even rarer in the world. The story should be more balanced and use more natural disasters and man-made disasters in the style of historical literature. The main reason is that the proportion of the protagonist encountering monsters and monsters is too high. Basically everything has some strange power behind it, which really doesn't seem rare. In addition, I hope that the existence of foreign countries and foreign religions can be reasonably depicted in the later period. Many works involving the background of the Qing people have been written here.
Do you think the protagonist is the one who fantasizes about time travel because his master died and he couldn't bear the pressure, and then he had mental problems?
I feel that this book has been written crookedly in the middle and later stages. It is about cultivating immortals and seeking the path, and not about slaying demons and monsters. It has to be about dynasties fighting for hegemony. To change the world, you need to have territory and power. What is the protagonist doing in the back? He is doing nothing. He wants people but no one, wants land but has no land. He is still fighting for it. What, I'm afraid the author doesn't know how to write it later. When I saw "Want to Fight for Hegemony", I felt something was wrong. I'm afraid there is no outline. In the future, if you see this kind of thing, then suddenly turn around and write about something else, be careful. It's not far from being unfinished.
Subduing demons is a great merit. Expelling the Tartars and restoring China is the right path and great merit. Pig's feet are first used to preach in the mainland and accumulate wealth, and then go to foreign countries to invent and set up companies to accumulate wealth, and then raise the flag to rebel and expel the Tartars. Otherwise, how can the heavenly gate be opened to a place full of smelly smells?
With a bad character, the Taoist doctor has entered the palace, and this one seems to be coming soon? Last comment, delete the book and block it, goodbye
Can you be a better doctor? It's true that the old eunuch is too rotten to continue writing and learn something. An art student will never finish a picture if he gives up sketching when it gets serious. An author will never finish a book if he doesn't tell a story well.
It's poisonous, the female ghost takes over the body, sucks the protagonist dry, and associates with the devil, the protagonist actually has a crush on her
When I read the title, I thought it was a book about the world view of a Chinese studio, but it turned out to be the same as Jiuliu Xianren, a literary practice cultivated in the late Qing Dynasty.
I knew it would collapse later
After reading Chapter 30, I felt comfortable with the plot and the writing rhythm was excellent. However, there were too many typos and incorrect sentences, which greatly affected my reading. I can't remember where it is now. For example, it's similar to: What Xiao Liu didn't expect was that this situation was unimaginable. Xiao Li raised the sharp sword high. Xiao Zhang took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and took them out This kind of sentence appeared many times. I remember that high school Chinese called this kind of bad sentence "mixed", right? After the author finished coding, he took a good look at it. No matter how good his writing was, he couldn't handle so many wrong sentences and typos. No matter how fragrant the rice is when it is stewed, it will hurt your teeth even if you eat it with sand.
