Late at night, when I finally typed down the three big words "the whole book is finished", there was an indescribable feeling that rippled in my heart.

The first novel written in my life. In the past, novels that often ridiculed others were often eunuchs halfway through writing. Now I finally know how difficult it is to finish writing a novel.

From the summer of two years ago, when I spent 11 days and days writing the first edition of "The Basketball King" with 140,000 words, to a year ago, I finally made up my mind to publish the novel, adding new content intermittently, and now I finally use the novel as a 380,000-word novel.

In the first edition of 140,000 words, when I only wrote about 100 chapters, I ended in a hurry due to time reasons, leaving a lot of regrets. In the past two years, I have read a lot of novels about basketball, Xiuzhen, and Huanghong, and watched a lot of astrophysics papers, videos, and the opinions of some academic experts, and gradually have some new views and views on the universe and cultivation, so I gradually wrote these new views when I published them. The ancient Yijin Sutra and the old monk have a grander background, and Li Qiang's ins and outs have become more traceable.

Yes, everything that happens in the universe, cultivation and the flood is explained by science, and unified by one theory. The integration of cosmic phenomena observed by human beings, events in human history, religions, myths and legends is the goal of the sun and the moon. Using Joule's law of energy, the realm of cultivation has become quantifiable. The realm is no longer ethereal, but can be studied concretely by scientists. The difference in combat power between each realm has become measurable and comparable, rather than relying on some mysterious explanations to fool sentient beings.

Li Qiang's two major academic pursuits in his life are also mentioned at the end of this article. As the greatest athlete ever on earth, Li Qiang has always tried to explore the mysteries of life and find the possibility of eternal life. At the end of this article, Li Qiang did not gain eternal life through cultivation. But what he didn't expect was that he died in his 140s, but he was reincarnated for eternity.

As the last cultivator on earth who is active in the world, Li Qiang pursued the mysteries of the universe all the way under the guidance of the old monk, until the old monk pointed out the seven levels of life in a broad sense, revealing an incomparably vast new world. At the end of this article, Li Qiang saw the clues of the mysteries of the universe, but he did not have enough strength to control them. However, what he didn't expect was that he, who had only cultivated to the peak strength of the late innate stage, became an existence far above the universe in his reincarnation.

In the first version, Liu Mengqi only appeared once as a name in the finale. With more emotional experiences, I added some of her episodes to the second edition to make her flesh and blood. And in the end, after continuous modifications and additions in the final year, she finally became a gentle and lovely woman.

Although it is still very brief, by the end of the novel, you can really feel her presence, her fragrance, and her body temperature. Whether it is her delicate and cute, her smile and smile, or her outer softness and inner rigidity, her intelligence and thoughtfulness, they are all so attractive.

At the end of this article, in the face of Li Qiang's imminent departure, she was obviously ready to be martyred, but she still stubbornly pretended not to care and smiled with blessings, which is the most distressing and poignant. Fortunately, Li Qiang did not live up to her infatuation, and chose to give up the opportunity to cultivate and become holy and marry her on the earth for the rest of his life.

Ask what the world is like, and teach people to live and die.

From basketball, martial arts, love to Xiuzhen, flooding, science fiction, astrophysics... The topics I wanted to write about were written, and the content I didn't want to write was not shoehorned in.

Readers of this novel must have noticed an interesting phenomenon that the word count of each chapter is uneven. Yes, this is also an idea of the sun and moon. Nowadays, too many online authors add a lot of water to each chapter to make up 3,000 words in order to make up the number of words, which seems to me to be very unnecessary. I write novels for myself, not to make money. So I think that when the plot is finished and I can move on to the next step, I will never continue to make up the number of words, but stop here and move on to the next link. In this way, it can also move the story forward more compactly.

This "The Emperor of Basketball" has finally fulfilled one of his novel dreams. I wrote everything I wanted to write, and I said everything I wanted to say. Another book "The Immeasurable Holy Lord" will be written shorter, Li Qiang and Liu Mengqi's marriage in another life will have a more perfect ending, and some of the suspense left in this book will also be revealed in the new book.

That's all there is to it, it's late at night, it's time to sleep!
