Lighthearted, Offbeat Picks for Veteran Reader Black Cat Jue
These days, I prefer books that feel fresh. Something lighthearted is even better. Lately I've been into farming and development stories, fan fiction, historical tech, and the like. The ratings are for books I've read at least part of. If I kept reading, it means I could get through at least the beginning, so none are rated below 5. Books rated 5–6 usually fell apart later or became ridiculously padded, XXX, so I changed their ratings.

I came to see your unbridled and reckless behavior after you cultivated immortality, not to see how you navigate the power struggles within the imperial court. That's truly a low-level approach. I can't bear to watch. It's a web novel, primarily a wish-fulfillment story. You're not trying to be an editor.
Readers looking for cultivation-themed stories will criticize it, but too many negative reviews will deter readers who prefer historical fiction. These are two distinct groups, and it's difficult to reconcile them. Perhaps the title should be changed to avoid ruining a good historical novel.
The book is titled "Successfully Cultivating Immortality," but the content doesn't match. The title should be changed to "Travel to the Ming Dynasty 1566," which would attract more drama fans.
What's the point of just following the TV series? As the most powerful person in the Ming Dynasty, he should just take decisive action as emperor. Even if he fails, he's a cultivator, so what's there to be afraid of!
The protagonist's cultivation method seems to make no difference whether he cultivates immortality or not.
An emperor cultivating immortality must have had a purpose, such as being able to travel the world in spirit while physically in the Forbidden City, observing the people's conditions. At the same time, he could also foresee dangers on a whim. Or, when the people's suffering reaches its extreme and they cry out to him for help, he has a premonition, as if he were seeing it with his own eyes.
It's well-written, I've subscribed to the whole thing, but your theme is cultivation, right? Everyone's reading about a cultivation emperor, and you're still not showing off your power and awe-inspiring presence. Only the Grand Eunuch Lü Fang vaguely guessed it. Sigh, not very satisfying. It's readable to the general extent, I'll vote for a month and get to the main story soon.
You're practically a cultivator of immortality, and you don't know that the biggest corrupt officials are in the cabinet? Just one of them could confiscate several years' worth of the Ming Dynasty's national treasury revenue.
The focus isn't on the emperor; it's all about the infighting among his subordinates, which has led to some truly chaotic situations.
When will he reveal his divine power? There are too many political intrigue, technological, and historical novels; I'm getting tired of them. Wouldn't it be better if the protagonist cultivated immortality, established a divine kingdom, developed followers, and accomplished great deeds while doing so?
