After Attaining the Dao 成道之后

A Haphazard Reading List
Most of these are humorous books that aren't too cliched, and they're the kind I personally enjoy. My main recommendations are overpowered protagonists, fantasy, and lighthearted stories.

I'm not very interested in conventional, formulaic stories, so I'll also add works that try something new, even if they may not be fully polished. One more thing!!!
