The Myth of the Great Void 太虚神话
Naive… obsessed… Who decides what is good or evil, beautiful or ugly? Who has the right to define anyone? Everything tumbles and swirls in the currents of this world of martial arts… Perhaps no one has the right to define others. This world has no good or evil, only the strong and the weak: the strong survive, and the weak die.

Record of Primordial Talismans 洪荒元符录
Talismans embody the wondrous principles of heaven and earth. A talisman cultivator interprets his own Great Way of Primordial Unity amid the primordial world. I didn’t transmigrate to the dawn of chaos, so I can’t become a Chaos Demon God or strike up a friendship with Pangu. I didn’t transmigrate to the ancient era, so I can’t challenge Hongjun alone or wipe out the Dragon and Phoenix clans. I didn’t transmigrate to the primeval era, so I can’t be a guest at Zixiao Palace, punch Yuanshi, kick

- 5 The Hu Horse 勒胡马 The Battle of Ningping City marked the final chapter of the Western Jin regime. According to the history books, from princes and ministers down to officers and soldiers, all were slaughtered by the Hu army, and “not a single person escaped death”… No. Amid the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, a young man still managed to rise to his feet. Gripping a ruyi scepter, he smashed it hard against the Hu commander's forehead! As the Central Plains fell and the people fled south, in this hellscape 0Votes333.6kRecs115.3kFans

Dao Traverses Nine Heavens 道辟九霄
Literary Version: The Double Ninth Festival lingers, where once I solved the mystery beneath the peach blossoms. My heart opens to the Great Way, and I rise to the ninth heaven. I look back from the ends of the earth, but my three or four old friends are nowhere to be seen. I ascend to immortality and soar away, joining the undying celestial ones. Comedy Version: I transmigrated to a world of immortals with a mysterious dragon scale. The immortal path? The demonic path? This is just a stage pla

Patriarch of Emei 峨眉祖师
Amid the passing years, atop Cloudrock, Li Pichen sat facing a young boy in white robes. The immortal mountain was quiet. Four monkeys peered out. The white-robed boy held up a scripture. “When did the Grandmaster come to Emei?” Li Pichen raised one finger and smiled without a word. A lost stretch of time was utterly changed by Li Pichen's arrival. He lost his name, and so later generations called him... “Taishang.” “Taishang is the ultimate

The Bald Monk in the City 光头武僧在都市
A forum thread: “If you could have the abilities of any D&D class, which would you choose?” Yi Qiu replied, “Obviously a monk! Great physique, fast runner. Immune to poison and disease, can take on thugs barehanded. In a place like China, where weapons are tightly regulated and even the food comes with a chemical-element chart, it couldn’t be more perfect. Plus, a bald head is a big shot’s trademark, so it comes with a +3 intimidation buff...” And then Yi Qiu really did become a monk... This is

A Reading List Mostly Featuring No Heroines or a Single Heroine (The Review's Opening States the Heroine Situation)
I’m such a compulsive reader that I have to finish every book I start... Looking at the hundreds of books on my shelf that I’m saving for later or that are already complete is overwhelming. I’m especially fond of stories without female leads (25 books), and I love reborn stories. Quite a few have just one female lead. Harem stories are fine too if they’re well written (>_<). I especially love Dao Fruit, Venerable of the World, and Lord of the Stars. Thanks so much for your support. Feel free to

Unusual Books That Make You Stop and Think
I've been reading for over twenty years. That's not a short time, though it isn't forever, either. I've gone from yellowed paper wuxia novels to today's commercial web fiction, and I've read at least eight or nine hundred books. So... I have some particular standards. I personally dislike stories that keep repeating the same formulas. I've seen the rise of the invincible hero trope, then its backlash; the genius protagonist trope, then the ordinary protagonist trope... The pioneers were undoubte
