MCs that are already OP from the start, or that become OP in very, very few chapters. They may or may not know about their own capabilities, but are feared and/or respected by those around them. Also, this is a simp-free zone, no NTR, no cucks. Waifus, though, are allowed. ... more>>

Lots of cultivation novels, some have comedic undertones that usually go well with "misunderstanding protagonist clueless about their own power". MC is famous, MC is considered to be the demon king, MC is a sect master, MC has loyal subordinates, overpowered and feared MC, etc, are the kinds of settings here.

They are in no particular order. List updates as I read them. <<less

I grew up with the development of Chinese Web Novels. In the beginning of 21st century, I started reading online novels, when Qidian set about... more>> expanding its business. Eastern fantasy was my favorite type. In every summer and winter vacation, I would read dozens of them. It was a great surprise for me when I heard NovelUpdates, which gave me the chance to create this list and share with you many memorable fantasy novels serving as milestones. <<less

 Most are romantic genre.

My personal favorite novels on NU ranked from best to worst.

As much as I love normal xuanhuan, there comes a point where you get tired of seeing MCs get ridiculed, abused and chased around by arrogant young masters for 500 chapters at a time.... more>>

Do you want an MC who breaks through realms "like chopping vegetables", slaughters any arrogant idiot suicidal enough to choose them as a target, and stumbles across secret treasure stashes while they're sleep-walking? You've come to the right place!

NOTE: Bear in mind that this is specifically for stories with MCs who get stronger REALLY fast, so I'm not going to include a few series where the cultivation is quick but you have to wait 1,000 chapters between breakthroughs. The only exception is Emperor's Domination, due to how satisfying it is to see the MC faceroll all of his enemies. <<less

Whenever I start getting a bit burnt out from reading all my high stakes, deep plot xianxia stories, I like to come to novels like these to just relax, turn my brain off and recharge.... more>>

Couple of others that aren't registered on novelupdates:

1. Most Generous Master Ever (Personal favorite)

2. I turn to be a grandmaster

3. New Father: Empress appearing on my doorstep with our daughters

4. I stayed at home for a century, when I emerged I was invincible (really good too)

5. I'll come clean, I'm the king of Lolan

6. Extracting billions of toxins and tempering an unsullied body

7. Origin Court: Accepting disciples with a system

8. Reincarnated as the strongest ancestor with a system

9. I inherit an auction house from the start, trillion time rebate

10. The Immortals wine store (better gourmet of another world) <<less

Good reads! According to me... more>>

I have a separate list with novels that take place on or start on earth and one with FMC's.

My personal ratings:

4 - I really like this novel. Will read this again.

3 - this is a nice novel. I liked it. I might read this again.
