I am taking a break from writing fanfic, but I have recently read a lot of yaoi/BL Chinese web novel, so I decide to talk about my favourite genre: infinite/unlimited flow and do a rec list.
Infinite Flow is a popular genre in Chinese web novel that takes its name after the trendsetter: Infinite Horror, where the main characters are summoned to another dimension and have to finish missions in different setting.
The main feature of infinite flow is that
the characters are summoned by an outside power to go on missions, usually survival or solving mystery. Usually the characters can only quit if they die or fulfil a certain milestone. The missions usually have defined goals and can take place in any setting. Therefore infinite flow has a built in premise for adventure and mystery
A lot of inifinite flow novels are also horror.
Recommendation: (Note: violence and character death are normal for this genre)
Supernatural Movie Actor App (Completely translated)
The main character is in love with his second personality and binds himself with a supernatural actor app so that he can fulfill his wish of embracing his lover.
The participants have to act in horror movies or shows to become more popular with the ghost audience. Only that the horror is real here.
There are fast paced action as well as complex mysteries. MC and his lover are very much in love. The side characters are very interesting too.
Mist (Completely translated)
In the future, the main characters are time agents dedicated to preserve the correct timeline. The main character (MC) has just joined a team for a new mission, but the entire team was snapped out of their timeline and had to fulfill dangerous missions to return home. The MC and the team leader (ML) initially were cold to each other, but fall in love when facing danger and solving missions together.
It has great world building, very interesting characters and brilliant use of space and time concepts, such as time loop and time travel. Both the plot and romance are well developed. The different missions are creative and tightly connected. Both the MC and ML are highly competent and their personality complement each other perfectly. The MC has super memory, which becomes a plot point later.
