Books Worth Reading 📖
Here are some novels I've been reading lately. New books especially welcome. Rating system: ★★★ (decent read, few annoying elements and plenty of satisfying moments) ★★★★ (excellent, with a better plot and writing than the previous tier) ★★★★★ (an absolute masterpiece) These are the only three ratings. Books rated lower won't stay on the list, but ratings are subjective. If someone thinks a book is bad, then that's on you.

A Collection of Top-Tier Reads
I’ve been reading for ten years... Quality guaranteed!!! These recommendations are sincere. Every book I add is, in my opinion, one of the best in its time. Fellow readers, feel free to chat with me o(≧v≦)o I have a pretty sound worldview, a strong sense of the rule of law, and a good grasp of modern society, so I won’t read books that are anti-human or inhumane. In other words, I don’t read dark fiction. If that’s your thing, please look elsewhere. I have another flaw: I’m a bit of a neat fre

The author writes very well in every aspect, except for a tendency to be argumentative. For example, the scene where you exchange incantations with Yuan Tuan is extremely illogical. I noticed that when you argued with other readers, you maintained an attitude that you hadn't made any mistakes.
To summarize the suggestions from fellow readers
Tonight, the comments section is full of ideas and there are many things to write about. I'll take the liberty of summarizing them here. 1. The perspectives of lower-level cultivators, fellow cultivators, and upper-level cultivators, including (1) Dialogue between Zifu, (2) Zifu guiding juniors on changes and history of Jimu, (3) Dialogue between Zhenjun,
The title is so difficult to understand; you're probably trying to overcome your stubbornness.
The male lead is even more disgusting than Taiyuan.
Firstly, when the male protagonist left the lake, it was Xuan'an who guided him, and the protagonist constantly relied on Xuan'an's influence. While in the Purple Mansion, Xuan'an even thoughtfully explained Daoist principles to him. After the protagonist attained Dao, upon arriving at the lake, he immediately accused the demons of taking him to negotiate with Lu Jiangxian.
I want to say something frankly.
My writing ability is limited. I will listen to readers' suggestions and have made some revisions. Readers who have given feedback and noticed the changes should know this. I replied to some suggestions but didn't make any changes. There were two points of contention: Preserving Wood and Wishing Techniques. Regarding Preserving Wood, I had a feeling it would be controversial.
Holy crap, this is amazing! This is probably the first truly excellent fanfiction of Xuanjian.
🐔➗Ten days away from home
You need to practice at the right time. This is your opportunity to transform. Compared with the dye battle in the original work which has no sense of excitement, your battle with the true king is ten times better. I haven't heard about the story of killing the old master in a single hour and splitting the world with a sword mark. Brother, let me tell you about it again🤓
With the proof of the golden position obtained from the wood [Mingchan], suddenly the world opened up before me!
The adults are terrified 🤭 Moreover, Mu De is completely unaffected by the overall situation. If you really want to say something, only the monk is afraid the protagonist will enter the Ji Mu Guo realm, and Tian Xia is afraid the protagonist will enter the Zheng Mu Guo realm. But judging from the other adults' thinking, at most they'll try to test the waters occasionally.
This is the most daring fanfiction ever. It dares to ask for money, doesn't follow the typical "ask for money and then get imprisoned" trope, dares to change the plot, dares to write battles after asking for money, and even dares to kill off Lord Du. It really gets the "satisfying" part right, but it needs to strengthen the shock factor. Currently, it's undoubtedly the number one fanfiction.
The Li family's nanny, as mentioned earlier, would have a give-and-take dynamic, but up to chapter twenty-something, the Li family has never shown any contribution. The protagonist's cheat-like abilities certainly don't count. From the Li family's perspective, the protagonist always thinks of them first.
