Books I Like
I can finally make my own reading list! Let me be excited for a few days, haha. I like fantasy and cultivation stories with wildly imaginative premises. I mostly read books with either a female-only or male-only protagonist. I’m very particular about looks, and I absolutely won’t read a book if the protagonist is ugly. I’m extremely picky, and even the slightest thing that bothers me will make me drop a story. This list is mainly for personal use. Not every book here is good; most are just proof
Dark Themes: Twisted Human Nature
Seal the darkness at the bottom of a bottle, and brew the most savage red. Light is called light precisely because darkness sets it off, but all of this meaning has been imposed by human beings. Whether one becomes a Buddha or a demon, the road is paved with countless bones. This list mainly recommends dark novels of all kinds. I will regularly update the collection and clear out books each month. If you know of any excellent dark novels I have missed, please leave me a message.
A Keepsake: No Female Lead
Books I read from beginning to end, saved here as mementos. I'm a slow reader, so most of these are completed novels. I don't like harem stories, so there won't be any of those here. These are all stories with no heroine, though a few might be debatable~

Follow Me and You’ll Never Run Out of Books
If you'd like to recommend a book, send it my way and I'll take a look. If you don't mind, follow the list owner and even a dangerously bad book might make it onto the list! (For books like that, please include a description. Thanks!) Feel free to follow and save the list. Every now and then, a good book might catch your eye.
Novels Without Heroines
A collection of novels with no female lead.
Pure Darkness: Live for Yourself and Forge an Immortal Conviction
Follow the path of growth you want for yourself, and become the person you want to be. If you find a book you like, please tap the heart. It might give the author you love a little more motivation? This list leans toward self-awareness and putting self-interest first. I'll label any novels that aren't dark fiction or aren't complete in advance. Since pure dark fiction is hard to find, I'll also include books with dark-fiction potential and some entertainment novels. Eternal life, boundless pow
Mostly Dark Fantasy, Myriad Worlds, and Western Fantasy, with Self-Interest Above All! (400,000+ Words)
P.S. Every 15×n likes gets a book pinned. Please, please... ⊙∀⊙! Going dark makes you three times stronger, but redeeming yourself makes you seven times weaker! To me, a dark, profit-driven protagonist isn't someone who kills and slashes at random. That's not dark fiction, that's a lunatic. I think it counts as dark fiction when the protagonist is ruthless and will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals or secure their interests, whether they're seeking immortality, fighting for dominance
The Way Takes Form in Formlessness, and All Things Are Born
Xianxia and cultivation, fantastical and magical stories.

[Comment] Xiaolou
Xiao Lou is amazing at writing! Even without a female lead, he can still write such amazing books! I hope Xiao Lou doesn't write a female lead! Thank you! Wishing him continued success in his writing! Xiao Lou will become a god sooner or later, because like Tomato, he can become a god even without writing a female lead! Unlike Tang Jia San Shao!
Dark fantasy classic. The so-called demonic cult is nothing more than an ordinary sect with strangely named techniques and magical artifacts. The protagonist has a built-in aura of sarcasm, and the supporting characters are brainless. They lack any of the caution and cunning I imagined members of a demonic cult to be.
This book is well-written; it's a pity it wasn't popular back then.
I don't understand what the author was thinking. Making the protagonist so ugly is one thing, but ever since he lost his powers and started rebuilding, he's become incredibly confident, acting like he has the world in his grasp. He's arrogant, vindictive, and domineering. The most ridiculous thing is that he's become so fond of smiling; he's constantly smiling. I'm speechless.
This book has no relation to the era; the logical flaws are too numerous. Shouldn't the higher the cultivation level, the more years of lifespan they gain, since Foundation Establishment and Golden Core both add 300 years? Then, when the Heavenly Might descends, even those at the peak of Foundation Establishment kneel, but this lowly Qi Refining level 5 guy doesn't. You could call him unyielding, but he kneels before meeting a Qi Refining peak cultivator. It's truly disgusting.
I wish the author could rewrite this book. If you replace the outdated formulas from a few years ago with improved rhetoric and descriptions, you can put old wine in new bottles and still taste good.
Before commenting, check the update date. This book is from 2012. Back then, it was considered a top-tier novel. Readers who experienced that era will understand. Meanwhile, those still in their infancy were facing a vast and diverse world of novels, so a sense of difference is normal. It's like giving someone a copy of the original Journey to the West now—could they get into it? But what about people from that era? So stop criticizing!
The plot isn't great, but the lack of a female lead and romance is excellent. I'm wondering where the author is or if they've changed their identity.
The protagonist is utterly brainless and disgusting. Wouldn't it have been better for him to stay in the Heavenly Demon Realm? His insistence on leaving was awful, especially in the early stages. The whole novel seems good, but it's just incredibly irritating. 😡😡😡😡😡😡
I could barely make out 74 pages of a fantasy novel disguised as a cultivation story. Well, it starts with the same old routine: showing off and then getting slapped in the face... Then, he slightly overpowered the level 5 Qi Refining cultivator to kill an early Foundation Establishment cultivator.
