[Turns Out I'm Shennong]
🍀 When will the good books return? I raise my cup to ask the heavens. I don't know what year it is in the world of web novels. I long to ride the wind home, but I'm afraid of unfinished books and toxic weeds; this reading slump is too much to bear. What use is trying every herb when the good stuff is nowhere to be found? 🌙 The moon turns past the tower, shines through the low window, and falls upon those still awake. Why should immortal herbs be left unfinished? People have joys and sorrows, par
My Picks for Pure Escapist Fun
I mainly care about the worldbuilding. I’ll recommend something if it’s interesting and good~
Books I Personally Enjoy
In my opinion, if a book is well written and the author puts their heart into it, it's bound to be good. Whether it gets popular is another matter. (Some readers have asked why so many of the books I recommend haven't gone premium. The thing is, plenty of books start out with great premises and plots, but as they go on the characters or power scaling fall apart, or the story gets too dull to continue. For all sorts of reasons, I end up disliking them and don't recommend them. I'm picky about wh
Books I’ve Enjoyed in 2025 (Revising)
The list covers a pretty wide range. I especially like dungeon and arc novels (early parts), extreme-martial-arts stories (early parts), and light, relaxed urban novels. Of course, I bought every recommended book in full, but I didn't tip. I'm a student with no income right now, sorry!

It's not like this world is rife with problems. What makes people even worthy of living? The protagonist has only been awake for four days: the first day his grave was dug up, the second day he was assassinated, the third day he fought zombies, and the fourth day he fought evil spirits. Every day has been incredibly fulfilling. Given this frequency of mishaps, what makes these mortals even worthy of living?
Haven't watched it yet
Seeing the main character's character card—181cm tall and only 70kg—Holy crap! Isn't that a dried-up corpse? Then reading the synopsis, he crawls out of a coffin—that makes sense. (ಡωಡ)Hiahiahia
Have you ever been a zombie? Some of this is just random writing and assumptions. References:
He lacks half the composure of that Mortal Corpse Immortal, his witty remarks are similar to the Nine-Star Poisonous Milk, and his writing about folk customs fails to touch people's hearts. It just doesn't feel quite right.
After defeating the princess of Jiang Kingdom, it felt like the protagonist had been possessed; compared to the earlier parts of the story, it felt like two different people with the same name, creating a disconnect.
The concept of "five deficiencies and three lacks" is purely a fictional setting; Taoists don't actually possess these things. Why do so many authors like to include them?
Why copy the gathering tropes from Lord of Mysteries? Your original writing was already quite good; his tropes have been overused.
Shennong is here
This book is alright, it's like a storytelling book, but it's a bit like the Corpse Immortal, which is a low-level method of becoming an immortal. The protagonist's supernatural power is restoring life, but Corpse Immortals are inherently dead. Unlike other immortals like Kuiba, there's no restoration or leveling up. The writing is interesting, but after finishing it, I felt it was a bit bland.
Please welcome Shennong
How's the writing? Is it readable?
After watching it, let me summarize.
[Minor Spoilers] The content is plentiful, and the plot design, both in structure and setting, is very rich, original, and full of twists and turns, making it worth watching. For example, the method of killing an undead monster by "smashing it into a grilled fish with a single blow" is something I could never have imagined in my entire life. However, this is also the problem.
