A later summary
First of all, thank you all for your suggestions.
This time, I want to talk about the so-called "water".
I actually know very well that everyone wants to watch orgasms all the time, but orgasms are always about foreplay, and no one can orgasm all the time.
Every time I write a volume, I will be told that it is water at the beginning, and then in the middle of each volume until the end stage, the evaluation will go all the way up, especially from the tenth volume onwards, and it has always been like this, and the cycle has been repeated, without exception.
Why? Foreshadowing, the foreshadowing stage is never good-looking, even if the great god platinum is no exception.
But foreshadowing is never less.
At the beginning of the tenth volume of 'Yuyu Heavenly Road', I spent a lot of space describing geniuses from all walks of life, so that everyone gradually accepted the definition of geniuses at all levels, especially the strongest geniuses, as well as super geniuses such as Candle Mountain and Impermanence, etc., several of them had special descriptions, and they were written very slowly, but when I really entered the Yuyu Heavenly Road, I asked myself to write very simply, especially when I entered the second stage, until I finally captured the Holy Name Tianjiao, it was done in one go.
The eleventh volume of 'The Strongest Star Monarch', this volume as a whole is relatively flat, it can be regarded as the transition from ordinary life to the life of the long river, and the final stage is to carry out the test of the Taoist heir.
The twelfth volume 'The Road to Domination', similar to the tenth volume, first of all, the Qi refining deity burst out of the Dominating Power through various external forces, depicting the strength and rarity of the Juggernaut in the starry sky of the universe from many aspects, in essence, these are all foreshadowing, so that in the second half of this volume, the refining deity became a candidate for the Dao Master, and then broke out to slaughter a large number of monarchs and masters.
The thirteenth volume, this volume begins with the same foreshadowing, the same boring by various comments, but one is for the end of the previous Yuhe volume, like writing about the ancient world after Tong, including the gift of treasures, etc., in a sense, it is all foreshadowing, and then including writing about North Allah, writing a demon emperor, all for the final complete outbreak of Wu Yuan, casting myths.
By the end of this volume, Wu Yuan had defeated the Golden Song Demon Emperor first, killed the Nine Great Demon Emperors, and faced the Red Rhyme Sage for the first time, revealing the rebellion of material defense.
In the final battle, directly break through and take the initiative to defeat the two sages, until the killing of eternity.
The whole process only took six or seven chapters, which can be called in one go, and even many readers will feel that Wu Yuan's breakthrough is not too fast, and he will stand at the peak of dominance at once.
But the back is fast, because the front is paved enough, and all kinds of accents have arrived.
——
Now, I have written the fourteenth volume of 'The Myth of the Long River'.
Some readers have also asked that the thirteenth volume has been written as the myth of the Long River, why is the name of this volume still 'The Myth of the Long River', this is because the previous myth of the Long River, some strong people in history have done it, and what Wu Yuan wants to do is unprecedented, the only 'Myth of the Long River'.
Similarly, this volume is also a continuation of the past and the future, to connect to the final chapter of the Nine Domains of time and space, which is also directly named in the introduction, 'The supreme person in the Nine Domains, called Tianzun', the whole world framework was conceived from the beginning.
At the same time, there have been many foreshadowing descriptions about the time and space of the Nine Domains before, and they are not very abruptly written.
To give a few examples, Taiyuan True Saint once talked about the 'Dao Yan Yu Domain'.
In the dialogue between Luanjiang Ancestral Witch and Houtu Ancestral Witch, the Nine Desolate Universe Domain was mentioned.
In the dialogue between Houtu Zuwu and Dijiang Zuwu, Yantuo Emperor and Gu Yuyu were mentioned, and Dijiang Zuwu went to Guyu Domain to invite Yantuo Emperor to participate in a major event.
This is also why Emperor Yantuo is extremely famous in Eternity, but countless masters in the Lingjiang Universe have never heard of it, because he rose in the Ancient Universe Domain, not the Central Universe Domain.
Like the Abyss Alliance, Innate Eternal Life, etc., from the mouths of various character dialogues, they have all been described in the previous volume and even the previous volumes, all of which belong to small foreshadowing, preparing for the final introduction of the map of the Nine Domains that is not too abrupt.
Including some foreshadowing, such as the pursuit of 'illusory world, wishes come true' mentioned by Houtu Zuwu, and many people like Wu Yuan who have been attracted from the original junior high school with reincarnation, as well as the Yuhe layer and the Yuhai layer that I just wrote, and the Zuo Zai Sage's mouth 'The primordial layer that no one can set foot in, the most holy is not successful', 'The primordial layer, time and space have completely lost their meaning', these descriptions are very inconspicuous, and they seem to be the so-called meaningless water, but in fact, they are all gradually paving the way for the final chapter.
This book is biased towards 'Bai Shuangwen', but a lot of foreshadowing and descriptions will be buried very early, even if most book friends may not care.
The fourteenth volume, the rhythm at the beginning is slow, because the power pattern of the entire Nine Domains time and space, as well as some contradictory clues, have to spend pen and ink to write and describe.
Like the Eight Domains Alliance, it belongs to the current mention, and book friends can have a general impression.
And the most important thing in opening the book is the difference in the status of the powerhouses at all levels of eternity, including writing this banquet in order to more intuitively write about the number of innate eternal beings, as well as the differences in the strength and status of the master, immortal, sage, and true saint.
It's all written clearly, and then the battle will be written, and the risk of breaking through can be light.
At the same time, when it comes to the opponent of which force, as long as it is said that the other party belongs to several forces in the domain and sea, the book friends will be clear at once, and there is no need to say anything more.
If you don't write about it, just write about the so-called adventure battles, and many things in the setting still have to be written specifically, and even more space will be consumed, and you have to mention it repeatedly, which has pros and cons.
And at the beginning of each volume, the foreshadowing is over, and the plot can start to advance faster, this kind of slow first and then fast, rolling up the plot in waves, is my writing mode and habit, I know that it is not necessarily acceptable to all readers, but it is a limit within my ability.
As a matter of fact.
Many old readers are telling me that the last book "The Lord of the Hung" is better in the later stage, and the plot advances faster, etc., but I sometimes really want to say that in a sense, it belongs to the 'old book filter'.
This book has really evolved a lot, but the speed of evolution may not be able to keep up with the pace of progress of book friends.
I remember deeply, the last book of "Lord Hong" was just a crossing of the Nine Heavenly Tribulations, I wrote ten chapters, maybe four or five days, these ten chapters can be said to have no plot advancement, that is, the process of crossing the tribulation, if there are old readers who don't believe in it, you can go and look at it, often write a realm breakthrough can write two or three chapters, at that time there were also book friends spray, but it was not so serious.
In the middle of writing "Yuan Tianzun", I still occasionally do this, and it may take a lot of pen and ink to write a breakthrough in the realm, but I quickly noticed that something was wrong, that is, the overall environment of the reader has changed, and the reading demand has become faster and faster.
Therefore, in the last few volumes of "Yuan Tianzun", it has gradually begun to change, especially since the eleventh volume, I have tried to change many ways of writing, like the second half of the previous volume, writing about Wu Yuan's successive breakthroughs and the process of understanding different tricks, I am trying to simplify and abbreviate as much as possible, because I know that readers are not very interested in these.
Write about the treasures you have obtained, and only write the key points, and do not expand more.
It's just that every book, just like life, is like a teenager in the early stage, it is best to write the highest moldability, all blank paper is at your disposal, and writing in the later stage is like the old age, the most difficult to write and the most difficult to deliver, the traces of the past will affect the present, the framework is already dead, and a slight change may cause a chain backlash and lead to a collapse.
So, in many places, the framework has been set, and even if I have a better idea, I can't overturn it, I can only improve it as much as possible.
It took 17-20 years to write "Emperor Hantian", three or four years to write, and 20-22 years to write about Hongzhu, more than two years, in this process, short videos gradually emerged, but they have not evolved to the point where they are today, and in this time process, the online literature industry has also undergone earth-shaking changes.
The way it is written and the type of writing have all changed dramatically.
The system, data panel, plus points, roulette lottery, progress bar, skill, etc. have basically replaced the original writing mode.
But I've always been among the 'old guards'.
What I remember the most is that when I was writing "The Lord of the Hung", I once chatted in an author group and gave some advice to several new authors, but I was spit out: "An old antique who writes biographies, the next book will definitely be eliminated, so don't give advice to others, it's all wrong advice", which gave me a lot of stimulation.
"Yuan Tianzun" is still a traditional fantasy, or the three books I wrote belong to the category of traditional fantasy.
In fact, the top 100 best-selling books at the entire starting point are still insisting on writing traditional fantasy fairies, and there are really not many books that can write a little bit of achievement, and many great god authors in this category either have poor results in their new books or have begun to transform.
The core reason is that the rhythm of traditional fantasy fairies is slow, and a storyline needs to use a lot of space to pave the cause and process, which is unacceptable to many readers now.
Everyone is more accustomed to 'watching a movie in three minutes' and 'watching the cause of the story in fifteen seconds and going through the climax'.
This kind of story rhythm that takes a month to complete the cause, process, and climax was fast ten years ago, but it is very slow today.
Sometimes, I myself am also very emotional, when Jin Yong Gulong these masters, will carry forward the martial arts, is the trend at that time, the eighties and nineties began to decline martial arts, to the new century in the network in the traditional fantasy Xianxia basically replaced the traditional martial arts, and then in the last five years, the traditional fantasy Xianxia has gradually been replaced, more and more declined, has begun to approach the status of the former martial arts.
I believe that all book lovers can also feel this, that is, if you want to find a new book of fantasy fairy tales without a system, you can't find it basically, or it's easy to find it, and most of the time you can only look through old books.
I'm never sentimental, that's the course of the times.
In the next book, I probably won't stick to pure traditional fantasy.
In the torrent of the times, if you don't have the ability to make the tide, you can only go with the flow, and at the same time grab a piece of dead wood in the torrent as much as possible, so that you can drown later.
Although "Yuan Tianzun" has only been written for a year, it has accumulated a lot of experience and lessons after more than three million words.
By saying all this, I don't want to explain or excuse myself.
The core reason is that many of the content written does not meet the needs of current book lovers, and it will definitely be abandoned if it is not improved.
The reason why it hasn't been abandoned yet is because some of the content can still be loved by everyone.
It's just that.
I still hope that book lovers can be more patient, this book plus this volume, there should only be about 3 volumes left.
Writing to this extent, it is considered a big late stage, and the overall writing style is difficult to make major changes, so it can only be fine-tuned.
There are some suggestions that I'll listen to, like 'cut down on the details, reduce the depiction of the environment', which was originally meant to increase realism, but has now been largely removed.
There is also something like 'reducing the shock of less important people', which was originally also an increase in coolness, but now it has also been cut a lot.
But there are still some suggestions, I can only ignore them, just like a building is about to be topped out, at this time, it is impossible to change the floor layout is not reasonable, and the balcony of the house type is not in the right direction.
Subsequently, the pace of each volume will be faster, but it is impossible to completely cut off the foreshadowing.
As an author, my personal advice is that if you feel that the pace of the early stage of each volume is slow, you can wait until the whole volume is completed before reading it as a whole.
Because it really can't be done, and there is a climax in the chapters.
Every time I finish a volume, I read it all 1-2 times to judge what I haven't done well, and I personally feel that the fluency and completion of each volume since the tenth volume is still good.
Serialized follow-up, and reading through the whole volume, will indeed be very different.
Secondly, I am very clear about another point, that is, the difference in update speed, if it is the peak period, it may be possible to update several major chapters a day, and the foreshadowing process can be completed at one time.
But now, especially this month, I really can't do it, this year's high-intensity serialization, the body has almost completely collapsed, and I have been to the hospital three times this month, and the doctor's recommendation is to be hospitalized for a period of time.
Now I have been adjusting my work and rest and state to see if I can break out again next month, and also to see the state of the last few days at the end of the month.
That's all there is to it.
Thank you for your support all the way.
