Web Novel/Novel Recommendations?

What the title said. I actually only read exactly one web novel/novel which was overlord and I thought it was really good! Any recommendations for any other novels/web novels?
The only things I do not want to see are Harem (unless if it is used as a comedy element/satirical fashion), and I only want to read novels/web novels that are currently being translated, or completely translated, unless if it has a great deal of chapters already translated.

This is like asking "any good movies I should watch?"...
Personally I enjoy wide variety of light novels/web novels, of different genres, so maybe I should just mention my favorites, and omit some obvious ones (like Sword Art Online).
Also, you should check out Novelupdates website.
Japanese novels (alphabetically):
- Clockwork Planet
- Ghost Hunt
- Heavy Object (WAY better than the anime, you really should read this one 😃 )
- I’ll Live My Second Life!
- Mokushiroku Arisu
- Owari no Chronicle
- Shinrei Tantei Yakumo
- Slayers
- Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken
- The Zashiki Warashi of Intellectual Village
Korean novels:
- ARK
- King Shura
- Moonlight Sculptor
Chinese novels:
- Battle Through The Heavens
- Child of Light
- Coiling Dragon
- Combat Continent
- Otherworldly Evil Monarch
- I Shall Seal the Heavens
- Sealed Divine Throne
- Swallowed Star
- Tales of Demons and Gods
- Terror Infinity
- The King's Avatar
- True Martial World
- Unique Legend
- World of Cultivation
Also, Yu Wo books (like The Legend of Sun Knight).
Note that:
- those are novels I personally like reading, not necessarily the best,
- and on that note, there are like THOUSANDS novels for you to read, so even if you don't like my choices, don't despair 😀

Just FYI, Terror Infinity is a Chinese web novel. And it kind of sort of is a harem, although technically the MC only has one GF but he's basically surrounded by 2 other girls who want him. It is great though so I'd recommend it especially if you like horror themed movies (it's not really a horror genre, but you'll understand what I mean if you read it).
