Standing the Test of Time
Books I think are pretty good, so I won't forget them.
A Maiden's Prayer in Progress... (Mostly Light Novels)
This list features books I consider worth reading. Rating criteria: - Three tiers: decent reads, good reads, and masterpieces. - Each tier has finer “-” and “+” levels. A “+” rating in the good-read tier is roughly equal to a “-” rating in the masterpiece tier. - To earn masterpiece status, a book must reach an exceptional level in at least one area. When rating a book, I prioritize its strengths, and only then consider its shortcomings.

Signed, friends
Thank you for your support all the way. The author has broken through the contract signing stage. Now he hopes to break through the street fighting stage. Friends, let's continue with this story together 🤝
Who on earth said that Xiao Xiao can be a mother, an older sister and a younger sister at the same time? 🙂 What a genius
Why do we use flashbacks so frequently in the first volume? So that it's so confusing?
(Because the author found that many new readers seemed to have expressed vague feedback about the story in the first volume. I specially spent time and energy to collect the previous replies and wrote this introduction article, hoping to help more new friends understand this story. This introduction will be put into the comment area later, and today's update can only bring this up.) Because the author wants to play with a structure of re-narration of the text, polyphonic voices of the characters, and retrospective narrative. First of all, this is definitely a story with a protagonist and an absolute character axis. Even if there is a certain "other" perspective, this is centered around the protagonist's social relationship and unfolds from the "protagonist" in the eyes of the "other". In the first volume, the story of the protagonist is explained from the eyes of others, cross-narrated and then brought together. It looks like a story told twice, but there are many changes in the details of the text description. It's like playing galgame, the first time you get the normal ending. If you continue to fight, you can get the true ending. After understanding the motivations of each person's behavior, their characters will become three-dimensional. In fact, this kind of writing wears down the author's patience, as well as the reader's patience. The advantage is that the characters can be better shaped. The author believes that the characters in the story should be heavily affected by social relationships, environment, and choices, so he will not only use the ink to shape the supporting characters, but also use the opportunity to shape the protagonist. The first volume will use techniques such as narration, flashbacks, interludes, and retrospective narration. Cross-check a story from the perspectives of different people at different times. This kind of POV-like treatment is relatively close to the author's first volume of the story. Animation works such as "Wine of Eternal Life", "Hellless Horseman" and "fate/zero", and similar online works include "Trading Crime", "Zhou Lin" and even the popular "Xuanjian Xianzu" can also be regarded as POV group portrait narratives, but "Xuanjian Xianzu" does not integrate the time latitude. This creative technique is actually quite common in various genres of literary and artistic works such as animation, comics, movies, novels, dramas, and games. It's just that there are relatively few online articles doing this. Maybe most readers of online articles are not easy to accept this, and most authors are not willing to try this field. Because there are indeed very few authors who can write well. But the author is stubborn. In fact, he knows that doing so will reduce the audience of the story, but the author can't help but want to make things better. He knows that there are tigers in the mountains and goes to the tigers in the mountains. In the first volume, the group portraits that the author will create will only focus on a few very key specific perspectives, and the main purpose is to shape the protagonist's social relationship and the protagonist's character image. Friends have all seen this location. If you have the patience, please take a look. There are also people who like this kind of game-like writing method like solving puzzles, maybe there are not many people. The author still hopes that every reader can find what they need in this story. It is very laborious to write like this, and it is thankless. Because the context needs to be verified repeatedly, the gears must be able to mesh. I won't do more of this in the following content, it's too tiring. Only depositing manuscripts allows for such a bold attempt. The author estimates that he will use this writing method less in the future. When the first volume was still in the preparation and polishing stage, the author felt astonished after reading "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and "Crime and Punishment". Therefore, we also plan to create characters so that they can fully express their voices, express their thoughts, and reveal their background. This is a kind of polyphonic narrative display. At key nodes in the story, their concepts will collide and spark. The first volume of this book makes a different attempt from most online articles in terms of narrative time structure. "Xuanjian Xianzu" is similar to the family management simulation game CK3, that is, "Crusader Kings 3", which has similar gamification treatment of the characters in the book, so some people say that Xuanjian is like the Chinese version of "One Hundred Years of Solitude". But Xuanjian did not try to show the present, past, and future of One Hundred Years of Solitude as the magical unfolding of time in the present. However, this book wants to be somewhat touching, so many readers see it as full of riddles as soon as they come in. This book will talk about what will happen in the future and what will happen in the past in the first volume, all of which will be mentioned in the present. Finally, when the volume is being wound up, it will all be recalled as the plot progresses. There is not a single riddle in the first volume here that is idle, they will all be recycled. The ink spent on character creation in the first volume will be called back at key nodes in the future story, that is, in the outline of the future story. In the first volume, when a character first appears, you will not understand everything about the character. After reading the same but heterogeneous text content, you will have a completely different feeling. If I skipped reading, I would have swallowed it whole, and I couldn't feel the details of the characters created with passion by the author at all. There are also readers who will like this kind of writing. For example, a reader told the author before that he really likes this kind of playing experience that is close to the game "The Mystery of Werewolf Village", peeling back the secrets of this character layer by layer. Reading the same text again, as long as the reader is patient, he can feel the different characterizations. This is indeed a creative method close to game narrative. "Thunderstorm" is similar in dramatic structure to the entire story in Volume 1. The main plot of the drama is concentrated in a short period of time. The conflicts of all characters break out in this "now". Thunderstorm is a typical drama with a retrospective structure. Its core feature is to use the "present conflict" as the framework. Through the dialogues, memories, and actions of the characters, it constantly looks back and reveals the "secrets of the past", allowing past grudges and present conflicts to intertwine and detonate layer by layer, ultimately forming a strong dramatic tension. The author created this story out of ambition, so he compared many excellent works before starting to write. Just as the Analects of Confucius said, "If you take it from above, you will get it from within; if you take it from below, you will get it from below; if you take it from below, you will get nothing." If you want to gain something, you must first set a goal with a high threshold. Don't jump over it, and let it go before you touch it. Frankly speaking, the first volume of this book is indeed a story that requires some patience and a certain threshold to read. But the author still sincerely hopes that every reader can find what he needs in this story. If you are highly dissatisfied with this creative method, please summarize your feedback in this thread and do not open a new thread. The author will go through the opinions you want to convey one by one.
I read someone else's recommendation: "Can endure long interludes and flashbacks balabala" I want to see what happens. Jpg Halfway through: Damn, bro is really good at interjecting flashbacks
As the only person in the small county who sees the wish to eliminate immortals
My county is so small that it only takes 20 minutes to go around on an electric bike, and it is so small that a newly opened milk tea shop can be spread throughout all middle schools in half a day. And I am the only one here who watched "The Wish to Exorcise the Immortal". When I opened the red APP on my phone for the first time and discovered this book, I didn't know that this decision would lead to a "secret world" for me. What the students talked about during class was the ranks and skins in mobile games. In the eyes of the elders, online articles only had four words: "delaying learning." No one knew how lonely the ringtone in Linzhai was, how lively the lantern festival in Escort City was, and no one could lament with me how grand my wish was to light the fire and eliminate the immortals. During an art class to draw "Landscape in My Heart", I drew on paper the bustling scene of the sea of flowers and fields on Futian Mountain. My deskmate came over to look at it, frowned and asked, "Are you painting an alien planet?" I wanted to explain that it was the residence of immortals, a wonder of another world, but I swallowed it back - the names of places that were vivid in my heart were just a string of unfamiliar words. Just like when I walk through the old streets of the county with my schoolbag on my back, I always think of the night at the Magpie Bridge Lantern Festival in the book "Shuangxin Shining Fire", but the people around me will only urge me to "hurry up, I'm going to be late." But this secret also gives me special joy. On weekend evenings, I would sit by the window and watch the story in "The Wish to Remove Immortals" over and over again. At that moment, the small room seemed to be connected to a distant alien world. I will save the screenshots in the book and occasionally show them to my deskmates: "Look, this is the place where I have 'traveled'." " Some people say that reading novels is "not doing your job properly", but "The Wish of Exorcizing Immortals" gives me more than just entertainment. It lets me know that even if you live in a small county town, you can see a wider world through a screen - there are immortals, gods, and all the characters who are spelled out for obsession. Just like now, I will take the initiative to look up words I don't know because I want to understand the characters' lines; I will take the initiative to look up words I don't know because I like the descriptions in the book. I started to pay attention to the humanistic knowledge in the textbook. I am still the only person in the county who reads "The Wishes to Eliminate Immortals", but I no longer feel lonely because I know that I have found the content I need in this book, and I will continue my "travel" in reality with this curiosity about the world. Maybe one day, my deskmate will suddenly come over and say: "You are very keen, my friend 😉"
Friends, I need your help, try to keep reading the latest chapters.
Friends, this book, which has only been officially signed for a few days, is currently competing in the [First Round Recommendation PK Competition]. If you win, you will be on a bigger and higher stage. If you lose, you will have to leave sadly. The author really wants to bring this book to a higher and bigger stage - let more people see it! Friends, please lend me your strength! [Reading the latest chapters will determine the outcome of the PK] But the book currently has 660,000 words. New readers may not be able to read the latest chapters for a while, and the time limit is only 7 days. Our opponents' word count is between 100,000 and 200,000, so their latest reading may be easier to maintain because the word count is relatively small. I'm afraid we will fall into a state of decline and be unable to defeat other books. Friends, try your best to keep reading and vote for recommendations during this week. If you want to vote monthly, it depends on fate. After all, this book is not listed in V for the time being, and it cannot generate monthly votes if it is not on the shelves. If friends have idle monthly tickets on hand and are lucky, then you can vote with your small hands. Today, Monday, we still have 6 days to stay in the stage spotlight. I hope we can win at least one game; I hope it's not the last dance. Let's dance together until the end! Every day without dancing is a betrayal of life! Thank you my friends. Let's go to the end of the story together!
Rao Zhirou, you have been harmed by the fire all your life, and you cannot deal with the young and beautiful young lady in a serious manner...
Thanks to the author for his love secrets and guidance, which allowed me to have my current partner. Thank you so much, author. Come on, author, I will always support you.

It is a very good book. The disadvantage is that it is slow to enter the plot in the early stage, and a lot of ink is spent on the characterization and background of the supporting characters. The main plot is not pushed fast enough, and the content is relatively depressing. This should be the reason why there are not many new readers. But after the first volume, as the story begins to advance, the world view begins to unfold, the characters gradually become more fleshed out, and the plot begins to show some levity and humor, making it more attractive to readers. Overall, there are no problems with the writing style of this book. The dialogue between the characters is also very fluent, the character creation is also good, and the ideas are quite good. If you can read it patiently, it is still worth recommending.
