Can you recommend a fantasy or cultivation novel where the main character has almost no fortuitous encounters and completely relies on his own efforts to climb to the top, just like the Anti-Dragon Aotian novel?

Keeley, a simple plain Jane, hits the jackpot. [No, she did not win the lottery!] At least that's what she thinks when she marries the most eligible bachelor in New York City: Aaron, a wealthy cold-hearted heartthrob and Tycoon. She wants to show the world that she deserves her position and bends over backward to fit into his world. One beautiful day, Aaron hands her a document asking her to sign. A divorce paper... "She's pregnant, and I need to take responsibility." That is the last thing that keeps on playing in her mind before she takes her last breath. Keeley dies, a 'hit and run'. [End of story. Not!] For some unexplainable reason, she wakes up as her younger self. A young high school girl, around the time when she first meets her cheating husband. Remembering her life with Aaron before she died, she makes a promise to herself that she will do everything in her power to avoid him at all costs. Will she be able to keep her promise when Aaron has his own plans as well, specifically for her? Or will she repeat history and fall for him once more... Why not journey with me and find out the truth behind their story. *Cover art by polkadottedscrunchie*

Bell Cranel was rejected by every familia he tried to join until he met Hestia. In a few, he was rejected quite violently. And in one particular instance, he was thrown out and bashed his head against a wall. Well, that's apparently where I come in. Not sure how and why I'm here. Not even sure who 'I' really am at this point since Bell's memories are definitely clearer than 'mine'... But I guess we're doing this. Hopefully I've got some useful cheats. Maybe?

Lin Qi transmigrates to a world of immortals. In this world, there are sword immortals who can behead a person from a thousand miles away, peerless great demons who burn mountains and boil the seas, and ancient gods and devils who can divine the heavenly secrets. As a disciple in charge of miscellaneous chores in the Skysword Sect, Lin Qi doesn't have any cultivation talent. A hundred years had passed in a flash, and seeing that he has nothing to do with such a great world, Lin Qi is incomparably depressed. Just as he is about to die of old age, he suddenly awakens a cultivation system. Unlocked One-Click Cultivation System: Limitless cultivation speed boost, one major realm per second! Unlocked One-Click Technique Practicing System: Cultivation technique instantly maxed out. Cultivate 10,000 techniques at the same time! Unlocked One-Click Clone System: 100% of the actual body's strength. Can self-destruct, can teleport, can fuse! As a result, Lin Qi begins to cultivate again with his hundred-year-old body, becoming invincible under the heavens.

Zhou Yun transmigrated to a fantasy world and was bound to the God Tier Epiphany System. He could enter into a state of meditation and achieve epiphanies that others desired regardless of what he did. Other cultivators immersed themselves fully in hardcore training in order to achieve some improvements in their swordsmanship. On the other hand, Zhou Yun achieved enlightenment in swordsmanship by merely picking up a sword and playing with it a little. His swordsmanship attained perfection in an instant. Other cultivators trained hard in order to break through to the next plane. Zhou Yun merely swept a glance at the fallen leaves in the courtyard. Then, he had an epiphany and broke through to the next plane on the spot. He had insights into everything in the world, and his rate of plane progression skyrocketed. When other cultivators finally became powerful existences after going through various hardships, Zhou Yun had already become the supreme existence through having countless epiphanies.

When Fang Yuan was transmigrated into a world where Gu Breeder was the main profession, he found that he was not gifted. Not only that, the Gu in his body could cultivate on their own. [Your Iron Skin Gu has trained profoundly and has achieved the Gold-grade!] [Your Bloodthirsty Gu has begun to multiply itself into a swarm of Bloodthirsty Gus!] [Your Sunlight Gu has been absorbing the power of the sun for years and has gathered the Truth Flame of the Sun!] [Your Drunken Gu has evolved into a Soul-reaping Gu. Your control over it has risen by 100 folds!] [Your Flying Sword Gu was hurt in battle. Amid its desperation, it has evolved into a Sword God Gu!] “Heck, even Gu undergoes involution as well now?” Fang Yuan let out a sigh.

Lee Fei is a normal 30-year-old man who has a good job as a librarian at the National University in China. He is an avid reader and has always read everything, including BL and GL, even though he declares himself 100% straight. He died just like that. There was no truck. There was no car accident. No deadly disease. Lee Fei reincarnated and transmigrated to the world of the book he had read days before he died. Unfortunately, a BL Dark Book. The worst, he transmigrated as an insignificant side character! Lee Fei became Emery Darcy, who is the third child of a powerful duke. Your life should be full of wealth and happiness, right? Unfortunately, Emery Darcy followed the path of an exorcist! Yes, Emery Darcy is an Exorcist Bishop! To make the irony of his situation worse, this side character had a worse fate than the villain. What an injustice! As the knowledge of the plot of this world, Lee Fei intends to return to the home of his rich family and live a good life! So, what if he has divine powers and MANA from nature? He just wants a rich and peaceful life! Ehhhh? Is the MC making a honey trap for me? Is ML no longer a possessive demon, but a tsundere that is following me? Is the fallen archangel a shameless voyeur who spies on me even in the bath? A guardian knight who thinks I'm the reincarnation of the god of nature? Stay away from me, I just want a peaceful life! Does apocalypse come far? No matter, I'm rich enough to protect myself! Let's have a happy and rich life as a good nobleman should be. NOTE: 1. R 18 2.
