    I'm kinda bummed out and looking for something to binge on.
    The only story's I'm actively following are Seeking the flying Sword path, Desolate Era and Martial World so something in that fashion would be good. I'm pretty much caught up on True Martial World, BTTH and Warlock in Magus World so those are out aswell. I tried WDQK, MGA, SOTR and ATG, no cigar there.
    It doesn't have to be xianxia, I'm reaching here, pretty much anything worthwhile will be looked at

    Look up Savage Divinity, a more western take on the genre. I really enjoyed it. It's not on NU tho since it's an english original.

    Commanding Wind and Cloud is decent. It mostly follows the standard formula of a Cultivation Novel where the MC is a "most underrated of society bullied by the rich and powerful before surpassing his current bullies to the point at which they can no longer bully him and gets new, stronger bullies for him to compete against". That said, even if the MC is stereotypical "genius" character, everything he knows and can do in the series is actually explained quite well. It's in QI's Xuanhaun section.

    +1 for Forty Millenniums of Cultivation. I'm not going to say that this one deviates from the standard formula for a cultivation novel (honestly, it doesn't really do so), but it doesn't exactly follow it either. To start with, unusually the MC only focuses on two fields, combat & blacksmithing (or rather, engineering & craftsmanship, mostly of weapons & related things), instead of being better than specialist geniuses in 3 to 5 to 8 different fields because plot wants the genius opposing the MC to feel insulted. Also unusually, the story's not set in an ancient world with the most advanced piece of technology being a Manual Printing Press, if that even exists. Instead it's set in a more futuristic setting where cultivator's have developed computers, spaceships and various types of weapons, among other things. The MC does do the typical "rags to hero" thing, as he starts as a slum-rat who's already managed to build himself up to be able to go to a half-decent school. However, he doesn't do as much of the "series of people each of which were stronger than the last group who finds the MC insulting because he's competent and not willing to be subservient/walked over by them" thing. Don't get me wrong, the MC does make enemies, but it's not because he said "no" to a series of spoiled & egotistical rich buggers who felt that someone as unknown and/or poor as the MC should welcome being publicly flogged for his amusement if he was having an off day.

    Absolute Choice and World of Cultivation

    because they're funny and somehow emotional.

    You probably won't bother, but check out my reading list named Liked. It has a bunch of stuff you might like (since I appreciate the novels you've listed).
