    Honestly I can’t think of any since most get messed up at some point.

    Please don’t mention IET or Er gen lol. Other besides that. Why do you love it?

    Cultivation Chat Group because it's not taking itself seriously, doesn't use the boring obnoxious young master/master/elder/ancestor opponent combo, doesn't has your usual psychopath stupidly pridefull and "do what I say not what I do" MC, don't have the usual bed notch post made of jade with potted plant personality harem, doesn't have much in the way of filler chapters or peanut gallery saying the MC is awesome for doing stuf worse than what the villain was doing for a full chapter, has an interresting and not easily forgotten by the writer cast of secondary characters and it doesn't get as repetitive as most of the other cultivation story I had read and dropped...

    TLDR, it use a cultivation background for the story but add more than just power creeping, beating guys that the MC don't like, go to the next realm and start all of it again while forgetting about all the plot holes left over, avoid all of the usual crappy templates and stay interresting for way more than a few hundred chapters.

    this. I also don't have any. At some point, all of them became idiotic or pull some nonsense crap that breaks their own rules

    Nightfall, Ze Tian Ji - both by the same author, have interesting stories, great mc, and better (not forgotten) side characters, world-building is good. Most of the things make sense, there is a sense of consistency in the story.
    World of Cultivation - It was a good story with very good world-building. The initial part was great though the novel is burdened by a super rushed ending.
    Warlock of the Magus World - my first CN novel, completely blew my mind.

    Well cultivation is a broad term as there r novels with cultivation for magic as well, so I guess it would be :
    Warlock of the Magus World
    Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich
    History's Number 1 Founder
    Reverend Insanity

    Library of Heaven Path, the MC is not overbearing and the amount of face slap is so high

    Nightfall and Way of Choices, great Character disposition and the pair of MC and the love interest

    True Martial World, The ending is definitely bullshit but I enjoy the ride reading it. Also not a harem give it a plus

    I particularly like
    "Transcending the Nine Heavens"
    "The Great Ruler"
    "King of Gods"
    "Renegade Immortal"

    And still read them every day.
    ---
    I believe

    Dragon Marked War God
    Tales of Demons and Gods

    Are a bit of a lower quality, but still fun and entertaining.

    ----

    Some great novels with, however, problematic points that get terribly boring are

    A Will Eternal
    Lord Xue Ying
    Martial World
    Otherwordly Evil Monarch

    ----

    My guilty pleasure is

    Emperor Domination.
    So much face slapping, it's great.

    ---

    I did not manage to continue reading/ am blocked with

    Reverend Insanity/Daoist Gu (I am blocked at chapter 200, the end of the first book. The ending of the book was incredibly boring and annoying, it was bad. I have heard it gets better from there, but have not come back yet).

    True Martial World ( Not only does the novel become bad, the translation is also terrible. )

    Ze Tian Ji (It's so wordy. It's thicker than syrup. Don't get me wrong: it's extremely elegant in its wording even in translation and it could be considered a philosophic journey more than a cultivation one, but I did not sign up for this).

    -------------

    I have just checked my reading list, so I'll give one more name.


    Record of a Mortal Journey to Immortality ( interesting, a nice read. I especially like how the world does not have infinite resources like the typical cultivation novel makes you believe. Another unique trait is how much having treasures and artifact is important).

    香火成神道 is one of my favorite The Plagiarist novels. Strictly speaking, it's not a "cultivation" novel though since the protagonist is a ghost who became a land god. He cultivates through gaining followers and gathering their faith. In my opinion, it's one of the best The Plagiarist novels yet. His recent novel 超凡黎明 is promising though.

    魔狱 isn't bad either, although I dislike how the protagonist turned out in the end.

    Legend of Swordman, fast pace novel with cool-head Mc, no Harem, the fighting scenes also very interesting and short but very good. Mc is less talk and do more. very straightforward Mc. a good story!

    "How to plant potatoes" because I love potatoes!

    .....Oh wait, wrong "cultivation"..... :p

    Fragrant Fire City's Ghost Street? I don't recall a translated novel by that name.
