These are the books I've been following lately. They're all different genres and picked entirely according to my own tastes.

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
Top-Tier Reads
Here are some novels I think are worth reading. I like stories where individual power surpasses the world, and the protagonist is kind but neutral. They help strangers when they can, without being overly self-sacrificing, but are willing to give up everything for the people who matter to them. I prefer plots that aren't too simplistic, with the protagonist showing off their abilities in public now and then. I enjoy romance, and I'm fine with either one or multiple love interests, though this lis

The protagonist's personality is truly perfect; unlike some losers who get angry or surprised at the drop of a hat and act like a clown.
Those who criticize the author's writing should write their own book and let everyone judge for themselves!
After writing my review, I read everyone's comments and thought it would be good. But seeing all the criticism made me even more sleepless. If you have good ideas, you write them yourselves and let everyone see. This book is said to be number one among the cultivation novels I've read in the last 10 years. It's not easy to find a novel that truly resonates with me.
We should scold them, but we should also pursue them.
Negative review
The beginning was a masterpiece, but the half-demon catwoman incident became unreadable. The author's thought process went completely awry. It's basically about a Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment cultivator killing a prince from a Nascent Soul family over the inheritance of a former colleague's sister (whom he barely knew), then being unable to clean up the mess, getting hunted down, and…
We'll still scold them, and we'll still pursue them.
From now on, if I see anyone say he almost became a god or something, I'll curse them every time I see them. Look at his attitude towards writing and updating all these years. You guys are really tolerant. Godhood? Pshaw.
Come on, Shennong
I haven't read this book yet, but after browsing the comments section, it seems everyone is saying it gets worse after chapter 100, and that it gets worse after "Heavenly Capital" (a popular online novel). Aside from those who agree, the other comments seem to offer nothing more than attacks on the plot, like calling someone a "trainee" (a derogatory term for someone who is not a good reader). Can anyone tell me if this book is worth reading?
I've read all his books, and this one gives me the same feeling: chaotic. There are currently four main storylines: one major and three minor ones. The major storyline involves the upheaval of the Heavenly and Earthly Realms; the minor storylines are: revenge against the Zhao family, the entry of Tiandu Mountain into the world, and the struggle between the aristocratic families and the reclusive…
Three basic skills: cultivation, teaching, and fighting.
I've read quite a few books by Zhijian, but it wasn't until this book that I finally understood why his books have such thin plots—because he only knows these three tricks. Just like the protagonist of this book, every time he goes down the mountain, the sect assigns him tasks, but he doesn't do anything except fight or teach, and he's not even given a reason.
Please refund me the money for those books. It would be better to feed the dog with that money than to buy your books.
I paid to read your previous books on Qidian, because I think you have ideas and good writing skills. I still think the "Spirit Rhinoceros Sword" in "The Taoist Priest" is outstanding. But you're really not a good person; you keep leaving things unfinished and disappointing people. I'll take the time to sort out your mess. Whenever you release a new book, I'll promote it.
