A Veteran Bookworm's Female Cultivation Reading List
After years of reading, I've read quite a few female-led cultivation stories where the heroines focus on their path to immortality instead of romance. I can't stand stories where the heroine loses all reason the moment she meets the male lead, or fluffy romance novels dressed up as cultivation stories. You can rest assured there are absolutely no books like that on this list. Come on in! P.S. I feel bad that most of my recommendations are either new or on hiatus. So much for saying you can rea
Treasures from the Sea of Clouds
Mostly books by my favorite author Yun Ji. I'll gradually add more books I like or ones that have great reviews, mainly xianxia, romance, and historical fiction.
Cultivation Heroines: Odd Tastes, No Popular Fluff
I don't read much on Qidian, and almost everything I read is cultivation fiction. I don't like overly sappy romance. Most of these have no male lead, or the male lead barely features. I prefer new and niche books 😘😘😘 JJ list: Cultivation: I'm the Female Lead ← A native-born heroine with no rebirth, fighting to make her way (originally a harem-leveling story with a womanizer and his harem). Complete. Without the Dao ← A vast world; give it a little time. It only gets better as it goes. Compl
A Beauty Rises with the Wind in a Single Day, Soaring Ninety Thousand Miles
This list features fantasy romance novels with smart, capable heroines who are compassionate yet decisive and ruthless when necessary.
Mostly Strong Female Leads or Power Couples, with Some Male-Oriented Fiction
Novels with strong, independent heroines, mostly cultivation stories. I've been reading for over ten years and have pretty exacting tastes, so I only recommend what I consider the best. No brainless characters, no amateurish writing, and not too much pointless drama. The golden finger shouldn't be too overpowered, and the plots should be logical and well thought out. Unless the story is truly exceptional, I won't recommend books whose values don't sit right with me. I occasionally include other
Fantasy, Sci-Fi, and Xianxia with Female Leads, No Romance
There are already so many romance novels with female protagonists, but I just don't enjoy them! This list recommends female-led stories without romance, mainly featuring strong women. There are all kinds of fantasy, xianxia, otherworldly, sci-fi, and post-apocalyptic stories, so have a look and find what you like. The list is limited to 50 books, so I update it from time to time. Feel free to recommend books in the comments, and I'll check them out. Sorry about the limit. P.S. Because of the li
Xianxia Stories I Like
Stories where the golden finger isn't too overpowered. They don't have to be traditional cultivation novels. These are the stories that left the strongest impression on me.
Whatever, Just for Me
(￣o￣) . Take a look for yourself. I'll keep it short.
🔸🔷Focused on Historical Chinese Style🔶🔹
Mostly historical romance and cultivation novels~ I don't like stories that are too angsty 👺👺 Funny, lighthearted banter is the best 👾👾 The characters' values can be a little skewed, but not too much 🐳🐳 The plot needs to make sense 🉐🉐🉐 Smooth, polished writing that keeps you hooked and eagerly waiting for updates 😍😍😍 Strong women who make their own way and stir up trouble 🏄🏄🏄 No princess syndrome, chuunibyou, or terminally clueless macho men 🚷🚷🚷 The heroine can be a Mary Sue, but she sho
A Breath of Fresh Air in Women's Fiction
Recommendations from a reader with over ten years of experience I've read so many female-lead novels that feel mass-produced. These days, I prefer stories with a different style. In this list, there are few vicious supporting female characters, and other side characters get their moments to shine. The heroines aren't Mary Sues, and the romance develops in unconventional ways. Some stories don't even have a male lead.
Obsession
Stories that draw you right in...
I Like Them Simple and Unpretentious
Ideas matter, even if the writing isn't that great.
Keeping Track of Good Books
Mostly female-oriented novels.
Worth a Look
I’ve noticed that lots of people write a whole bunch of stuff at the beginning of their reading lists. Is that why their lists get so much attention? I only add books I’ve read and found interesting. Just because a book is by a famous author doesn’t mean I’ll like it, and I might not like what other people enjoy. I don’t expect everyone to like my list. I just hope you can find something worth reading.
Moe, Fanfiction, and Creative Novels
Books I currently love
No Male Protagonist
No Naive Heroine Vs. No Womanizing Hero
Female-led stories that aren't simplistic or Mary Sue fantasies. Male-led stories without harems. Mostly recommending stories I'm currently following.
Xuanhuan Gems
A top-notch fantasy novel told from a woman's perspective, with excellent creativity and writing. Well worth a read.

Tasteless to eat, but a pity to throw away
It's not a traditional monster-slaying, level-up story. There's no sense of exhilaration, nor is there any particularly frustrating aspect. There aren't any particularly interesting plot points, nor are they particularly boring. The character designs aren't great, but they're not bad either. The writing is quite good, but it's very cumbersome.
I think a big reason why this book isn't popular is that it was placed in the wrong section. It's clearly not in the same style as other fantasy romance novels, okay? It's obvious it should be in the classic fantasy genre! How can we make it accessible to people who enjoy reading similar cultivation novels?
A letter to the author
I read it a long, long time ago. The setting was novel, and it had many brilliant ideas, but it was just too long. I gave up halfway through, but when I checked back recently, it was still being updated. I really admire the author's perseverance. I'd like to offer some suggestions: the world is vast, and there are many plot holes. Could the author please fill them in faster?
Hey author, could you add a character list? Other books have character lists where people can vote, but this one doesn't even have a chance to vote! 😭 What a waste of my 20,000+ fan points!
[Comment] I feel bad for the author.
It's truly admirable that the author came up with such a wonderful plot and works so diligently to update the story every day. I sincerely thank the author!
I've read up to chapter 600, and here are my thoughts: The first part (the first 80 chapters) was incredibly painful to read. The language was awkward, the characters were underdeveloped, there were too many cultivation tropes, and the plot was uninteresting. I really had to force myself to keep going.
It feels like the female lead is just an eye, an indispensable cog in the machine. The author wants to depict a world gradually collapsing, and the nations and people acting towards their own goals. This part is particularly brilliant! Readers who enjoy super-satisfying level-up stories might be disappointed; this book doesn't have those 5-year or 2-year timelines all the time.
There's no male lead, right? I don't like cultivation novels with male leads because they're all about torturing the female lead, and the female lead is a masochist who likes to fawn over men but gets cold shoulders.
It's well-written, with good writing style and high intelligence, but it doesn't quite feel like a cultivation novel. There's no cultivation or leveling up, and even with secret realms and treasures, the female lead doesn't use them. It's more like a detective or suspense novel, with a lot of reasoning.
[Comment] That's incredibly imaginative!
The plot of this book is so unpredictable, so ambiguous, it's really exhilarating!
