My Reading List 🔥
Different strokes for different folks. I'm not into light entertainment, and I avoid romance and urban fiction, with a few exceptions. I dropped some of these books later on, but they still have something worth reading. I hope you find one that suits you.

A Veteran Reader's Immortal Herb Picks
Some books get taken down without warning. The ones that survive are the cream of the crop. I'm not a fan of any particular author. I don't remember authors, just stories. I might finish subscribing to a whole book without remembering who wrote it. That's just how unique and willful I am, haha.
Farming, Reborn, Comedy, Carefree Living, History, and More: Just for Relaxation and Immersion
I've been an avid reader for over ten years. I enjoy stories about inventing original cultivation techniques, farming, lighthearted comedy, urban rebirth, history, the apocalypse, and pure science fiction, as well as hot-blooded stories about invincible protagonists or characters who grow steadily without being put through misery. What similar novels would you recommend? If you like the list, remember to follow it. If not, feel free to ignore it. This list is mainly a collection of novels I enjo

Hui Dashi's Booklist
The West Lake is lovely beneath bright, rippling water; Its misty mountains are wondrous in the rain. If I were to compare the lake to Xi Shi, She'd be beautiful in either light makeup or full adornment.
Infinite Worlds, Overwhelming Power, Stat Point Builds, Simulator Dungeons, Wild Ideas, Behind-the-Scenes Stories
!! Please don't downvote or flame me!! This is a record of interesting books I've read myself!!! There's no need to force it if our tastes differ. Quality power fantasies of any genre, with wild ideas and flaws that don't outweigh their strengths. I'm especially fond of multiverse stories, infinite-flow novels, decisive protagonists, and stories without doormats. Right now, I'm looking for comedies and absurd, over-the-top stories where everyone mistakes the protagonist for a mastermind. My read
A Guide to Cautious Cultivation and Immortality: Cultivation Isn't That Inconvenient
This list is mostly made up of books I like. I'll point out any major flaws, and only include books I highly recommend. (I've been reading for over 15 years.) This list focuses on cautious cultivation stories. The main character usually cultivates with longevity as a secondary goal, or focuses on training by leveling up their proficiency. The protagonists tend to be calm and cautious. The books here are all excellent online novels I've selected. I only recommend books that are at least solid rea
[Qidian Bookshop] Reading in Early Winter, Gathering Everything Together
The auspicious hour arrives, all things return. The treasured jade is carefully kept, its potential building until it can shine. A clan’s sacred artifact, eternal life, and lifetimes of reincarnation to attain immortality, gazing down proudly upon heaven and earth!
Books I'm Keeping to Myself
Books I personally think are good. Letting them build up, no particular genre. (A complaint: the quality of books on Sanjiang varies wildly. The gap is huge.)

Overall, the conclusion is that the author isn't very good at writing stories and prefers to focus on setting the premise.
Keep it up, author! I love reading this kind of self-sufficient and stable work.
This book feels like a steamed bun with only one gram of meat filling.
The cultivation system and the "golden finger" (advantage/cheat) in this book are truly amazing, and the various foreshadowing elements and world-building are also quite refreshing. It can be said that it has all the essential elements of an excellent work. However, the author doesn't know how to play his cards properly, and his own limitations severely restrict the book's potential.
This kind of cheat-like ability, real or fake, that makes anything you practice successful—you practiced this without needing any local secret techniques? All you did was rely on some "I figured" ideas that were probably useless before you transmigrated? And you succeeded? With such a huge cheat code, why bother practicing martial arts? Just go straight to the top!
Update schedule: one chapter at noon, two chapters in the afternoon.
This book has several issues. First, it was too stressful; I was constantly busy and exhausted. Second, the protagonist's cheat ability is ridiculous—how did he memorize all those martial arts techniques? Third, the enemies seem incredibly intelligent while his own side is incredibly stupid; is this meant to highlight the protagonist? I personally didn't enjoy it, but I hope others enjoy reading it.
The subject matter is acceptable, but the writing is terrible. After reading well-written works, reading this is pure torture.
As a web novel with a leveling-up trope, it has a major problem: in the early stages, it followed the path of seclusion and leveling up for about a hundred chapters, and the leveling speed was very fast, similar to the top-tier luck of Ren Woxiao. This attracted a group of readers who liked this type of story, but also drove away some readers who didn't like it.
Brother, please, please leave that village alone. Today, Old Wang, the farmer, is a peerless genius; tomorrow, with the help of the pig's feet, a whole bunch of top-tier experts will emerge in the village. It's disgusting to watch.
Although this is a critique, it's rare to see a book with such a good early chapter, so I'll share my opinion: While the early chapters might be a bit bland for most readers, they were a gem for me; the hermit-leveling-through-the-hill trope was excellent. However, it fell apart later on. I think it was written too quickly and messed things up.
