Sharing Some Books I'm Reading
I have been an avid reader for more than ten years, and fewer and fewer books can hold my attention. I move back and forth among lists from famous authors and friends, finding quite a lot, while also feeling that authors who put real care into their work are often hard to notice. So I created this list to share books I think are pretty good. I hope excellent works can find more readers who will love them.
Only Immortal Heroes, Fantasy, and Supernatural Stories: High-Quality Picks
If you like fantasy, xianxia, or stories about the supernatural, come on in. These are all high-quality gems, and they definitely won't waste your time. Feel free to recommend novels you enjoy in the comments so we can share with each other. Ten stars is a perfect score; nine stars means epic, and these two ratings are for masterpieces. Eight stars means amazing, seven means good. Six is decent and worth a try; five is average, but worth a look if you're out of books. I won't recommend anything

Xianhu-Style Novels! Brothers, Feel Free to Add More
Old Toad always seems to botch the endings, but the world of Xian Hu is so beautiful that I still love his work 😅 Feel free to add your own picks, everyone. There are so few Xian Hu-style books out there, so let's share recommendations.
Great Books Worth Reading
I prefer lighthearted books with a bit of mystery. The genre doesn’t matter that much as long as it’s well written: cultivation, wuxia, infinite worlds, System stories, quick transmigration, and so on.

It's been over a hundred chapters, and the protagonist's cultivation level hasn't changed much; he's only opened a dozen or so acupoints. At this rate, it'll take over three thousand chapters to reach the Qi Refining stage. I'm speechless.
For those seeking unorthodox methods, look to the unorthodox masters. Remember this saying: "We unorthodox practitioners take shortcuts."
Qidian (the website's online platform) only cares about collecting money, where is the after-sales service? This kind of abandoned project should compensate us readers.
I really love this novel. Any similar recommendations?
Let me explain why I like it first, otherwise I would have deleted the book long ago if the author's updates were so terrible. Originally, this book's style was what I hated the most—it was all about humor and references. I read books to enjoy the plot and the story. But some novels use jokes and filler words, thinking that readers will get involved and laugh along.
Personally speaking, the excessive talking to oneself didn't make me laugh; it just felt out of place and awkward. 😒
Everything was fine at first, then a system popped up and disgusted me. I'm giving up.
Boss, haven't you cheered up yet after all this time? It's just a woman, it's not that serious. Just focus on writing your book. Once you become a top author, you'll earn a few million a year, what woman won't you have? Besides, think about it from another angle, isn't realizing this now a good thing? It's much better than raising your child, spending all your money on his wedding and house, only to find out you've lost everything, right?
The author isn't in a hurry at all. From the moment the protagonist transmigrates, things keep happening one after another, but his cultivation remains almost unchanged. We hardly ever see him seriously cultivating; it's always one thing going wrong, another failing, constantly getting into trouble. There's no sign of immortality at all!
This author has abandoned projects before, so there's no need to wait. You can blacklist this kind of author.
This novel truly leaves me with a lingering sense of regret.
Aside from the Xuanjian Immortal Clan, this is arguably the only decent cultivation novel on Qidian in recent years. It has a bit of the Xianxia (仙葫) feel, with a strong classical Xianxia flavor and some humor. The logic is also quite reasonable. However, it felt like the book was just getting going when it suddenly stopped.
