    just trust me and start Release that Witch it is the biggest name in kingdom building genre. There is no novel that even comes close to Release that Witch in kingdom building. I have read tons of novel and i have yet to find better one.

    Other that are good but kinda below Release that Witch

    Tales of Reincarnated Lord ( Second best in Kingdom building)
    Amber Sword ( Average)
    Realist hero rebuilt the kingdom ( kinda ok)
    Enlightened Empire (RR) ( kinda ok)
    Rise of lords ( above average )
    The World Online ( MMo rpg) ( Trashy)
    Lord's Empire (MMo rpg) ( Trashy )
    Road to Kingdom ( Average )
    World of Warcraft foreign realm domination ( Below Average)
    I am the Monarch ( Average )
    Hail the King ( trashy )
    Sevens ( Kinda ok)
    Kingdom's bloodline ( above Average )


    Not exactly what you are looking for but good power trips with little bit kingdom building

    History's number one founder ( Average )
    History's strongest senior brother ( Average )
    Master of Untold Daos ( Below Average)
    To be power in shadows ( Kinda ok)
    Low-dimension game ( best power trip around)
    Forgotten conqueror (RR)
    Library of heaven's path ( Ultimate face slapping)
    Emperor's domination ( Trashy )
    Number one under heaven ( Gem )
    Invisible Dragon ( Best of all time )


    Absolute best novels mostly not kingdom building

    1. Lord of Mysteries ( There is no competition hands down )
    2. Martial Arts Master ( Best Romance + Action)
    3. My House of Horrors ( Best horror + Thriller)
    4. Overlord ( Best Jap Novel + Excellent world building )
    5. I Shall Seal the Heavens + Reverend Insanity + Renegade Immortal + WMW ( Best CN cultivation novels + mature shounen)
    6. Way of the Devil + Carefree Path of Dreams + Mystical Journey ( Best adventure + travelling novel + Mature shounen )
    7. Release that Witch ( Best kingdom building + Military)
    8. Throne of Magical Arcana ( Excellent world building + adventure )
    9. Trafford's Trading club ( Best Psychological + OP MC novel - Sadly translation has stopped )
    10. Ze Tian Ji + World of Cultivation + Zhu Xian ( Good plot + Cultivation )
    11. Cultivation Chat Group + Legend of Sun Knight ( good comedy novels )

    No particular order here all the given novels are awesome.



    For initial hype and then to trash it later to be cool kid in the block.

    1. Against the Gods ( Actually Trashy )
    2. Coiling Dragon ( Average )
    3. Desolate Era ( little bit above average )
    4. Martial God Asura ( Actually Trashy)
    5. Martial world ( Average )
    6. Stellar Transformation ( Average )
    7. Wu Dong Qian Kun ( Actually Trashy )
    8. Battle Through the Heavens ( Actually Trashy)
    9. Every bad plot cultivation bullshit and good plot jap beta bullshit


    Kr novels are in the middle not too awsome not too trashy so they arent mentioned mostly.
    My personal opinion hope no one gets offended.
    And give me some good kingdom building novels or any novel which you think is masterpiece in your opinion Female mc is fine but no romance preferred. ( No BL )

    You forgot When A Mage Revolts for kingdom building novels , while I won't say it's the best it's certainly up there . I personally don't like kingdom building novels but this was the only one I saw through the end and liked very much

    When A Mage Revolts i read till around 700 chapters but there was not much kingdom building honestly so it is kind of easy to forget. It was good though mc is really hated by the heavens.
    I read it around 2 years ago and i mostly remember even mc's mother was plotting against him and the church was after him.

    You just shouted out 80-90% of the series I like, which makes me think our tastes might not be too different.

    Have you read Super God Gene? The first 50-some chapters aren't that strong but it gets into stride later on and becomes a decently good time. Mild to average trashy levels, but still within acceptable limits IMO.

    Too bad the author's next series turned out to be actual hot garbage lol.

    That's like the opposite of mine. Western history is something that I just strange really like.

    Isaac might be something that you'd like though. It mixes in a bit of action in the later chapters too. It's just recently been progressing the plot, though. But it's still pretty good. MC's a crazy b*stard.

    From the reviews lots of people are complaining abou mc being lazy with no drive. I dont like that kind of story even though i like evil mc. I dont like when mc is evil just for the hang of it. Thats just a socoi path. I like mc like leylin, fang yuan is not my type even though i enjoyed the novel RI.
