Mickey I'm curious if you guys have any hidden gems that people might've missed because of similar reasons.

Nightfall - Mao Ni - One of the few TransN novels worth reading. (RtW, of course, being another with Meh's help)

The Path Toward Heaven - Mao Ni - Very enjoyable. Different.

The Sacred Ruins - Chen Dong - Translation started out rough but a new TL came along and it improved immensely

      Mickey this is the best "Original"
      MC doesn't cultivate because he is already at the peak.. on par with Saitama sensei (One-Punch man)

        Strongest System , Ultimate Scheming System, Overpowered System, The 7 Realms, Throne of Magical Arcana, Tempest of the Stellar , How can you call me cheater? , MMORPG : Martial Gamer, Transcending The Nine Heavens, Lin Journey <-- Recommended!

        This are all the Hiddem gems novels! specially Lin Journey <---- Original

          checkm8 I found a lot of good novels, but I dropped them due to the unstable release dates. It's a pity, most of those novels were my jam.

              I understand consistency was one thing that hurt Plundering the Heavens for several months. (TL had a baby!) That's been resolved since January or so (not the baby but the consistency!) and it's back to a reliable 5ch/wk.

              The TL team also revised the first 25 chapters and reposted them back in February.

                  checkm8 i'm not gonna try that one just yet. Seems like it still have too few chapters. I'm not gonna cliffhung myself to death

                      Bro I'm going to shamelessly promote my novel...

                      It is titled "The 7 Realms". Hope you'll give it a read.....

                      (I'm sorry I did not add a link.... I'm currently using the webnovel app)

                      Cheers.

                        I wouldn't say there are 'hidden' gems on this site considering there aren't that many to browse through in the first place. But my favorites right now are Super gene and Shadow hack. These are far from hidden but good none the less. If you want some good novels not from this site id say, "Returning of the immortal world". Pretty good story about a immortal that was betrayed by his lover and ends up reincarnating into a modern earth world and his climb back to power.

                          For me hidden gems are Pursuing Immortality and Trafford's Trading Club. Mind you, they're very different from most novels recommended here and definitely are not part of the most popular genres.

                          checkm8 Yeeees! I love Nightfall and The Sacred Ruins! I'll give the Path Toward Heaven a try!

                              PeacockStudios I suppose hidden gems isn't too appropriate haha. I'm thinking more of novels I might've overlooked due to inaccurate reviews or bad reviews aiming at problems with the translation that the translators/editors have already addressed. Shadow Hack's always been one of the top on the ranking list and I see a lot of people saying it doesn't really deserve its spot, how is it?

                                  SuperManGay haven't read any of those aside from Throne of Magical Arcana and Transcending the Nine Heavens. Those are a lot of recommendations, thank you!

                                      Pillar in the sky (nice prose)

                                      Death sutra (next level)

                                      Tales of herding gods (different vibe, funny)

                                      King of gods (cliche but consistent and enjoyable, less cringy than Er Gen)

                                        bachingchung i like the comedy. I think it is very good. But ATTE has he same problems as ISSTH and evn worse: very short chapters full of filler and DBZ screams and roars for the smallest thing. And barely something happens. Also Bai Xiachun has a bad mentality for cultivation. He is so afaraid that if not for plot armor he would just stay wherever he is and miss all opprtunities. And annoyngly Er Gen makes it that he always get incredibly lucky and obtains the best for everything, which is clear that by himself he doesnt deserve.

                                        So overall the story is not better than ISSTH

                                            Mickey I beseech the devil was a little gem I discovered lately but it's only 1ch/2 days and deserves more support.
