Half Immortal Yao's alchemy is naturally not bad for Chu Xiaoran's true transmission, and the little half immortal said: "Well, go get busy, from tonight onwards, everyone will take turns to keep vigil, and I will keep vigil tonight." ”

Everyone had no opinion when they heard it, and Ban Xianyi smiled and said: "Big brother, my sister's ability to refine the inner pill is getting stronger and stronger, and when you want to refine something, you can find her." ”

The little half-fairy bowed, "Okay." ”

The half-immortal sister and brother locked themselves in the room and did not come out all day.

When the night fell, everyone went back to their rooms, and the little half-fairy walked to the lake, and unexpectedly found that the snow was falling in the air, and he was about to turn around, and he saw Mo Liunian.

Mo Liunian said: "It's snowing." ”

Xiao Banxian said: "The deep mountains are already colder than outside, and this snow will come earlier." ”

Mo Liunian walked up to Xiao Banxian, "Then will this lake freeze?"

The little half-immortal said: "Maybe, why don't you sleep yet?"

Mo Liunian said, "I can't sleep, I still want to practice more fire fighting techniques, you can help me take a look at it." ”

The little half-immortal said: "Okay." ”

Mo Liunian's Yannei True Flame was already in perfect flames, and the flames were almost born with her consciousness, but to Mo Liunian's surprise, Yannei True Flame couldn't even melt snowflakes.

The little half-immortal said: "The Yannei True Flame does not belong to the mortal fire in the first place, and the burned person will not only not be burned on the outside, but will feel cold to the bone. It is the soul that is scorched by the true flame of Ennai. ”

Mo Liunian's eyes rolled slightly, put away the true flame, and pinched out a few small fireballs at random from his fingertips, the fireballs revolved around the little half-immortal like an elf, and the little half-immortal was trapped in place, threatening with a smile on his face: "If you want to burn my head, I can fight with you." ”

Fantasy Decline and Urban Renaissance?

It's an interesting question.

As you know, our Xuanpai has been doing the 2018 year-end summary recently, so I think it's worth talking about this issue.

In a previous article, we have listed the data of the starting point of 2018.

Newcomers must see, writing is like starting a business, don't be reckless||2018 starting point male frequency big data analysis

This is the first time I have done this graph, and I don't know many functions, so the data is not accurate to two decimal places, but the general data will not be wrong, you will know by looking at it.

Among them, there are 122 urban works, and 61 fantasy works - according to my check, some of the data is wrong, such as "Danzhu", which includes the three idiots of the thief road, and "The Three Realms of Independence".

The three idiots passed away in 2015, so the data in this book is definitely wrong.

The release date of "The Three Realms" is 2014, so it is also incorrect.

In other words, in 2018, there were only 59 fantasy books in total.

The number of urban works is twice as large as that of fantasy works, and a little more.

So, is the real result that simple?

Let's take a look at these 59 fantasy works.

Of course, as long as the power system is higher than the normal world, it can actually be classified as a fantasy world.

But what we generally call fantasy mostly refers to the fantasy of the otherworldly continent, which is generally a bit of an ancient world background, relying on a high-martial arts system rather than a scientific and technological system.

This kind of fantasy is what we are discussing today - "traditional otherworldly continent fantasy".

For example, "Breaking the Sky" and "Douluo Continent" all belong to this category.

Among the above 59 books, the ones marked in red are actually urban backgrounds.

Of course, the urban setting is also slightly different.

There are changes in the heavens and the earth, and the revival of aura - such as "There is a demon here", "The hero kneels", "The evolution of the divine pet", etc.

There are sci-fi worlds that travel to the future - such as "I Am Not", "Tyrant of Extreme Fist", "Daddy's Tech Martial Arts Hall", etc.

There are also times in time to parallel worlds, but still in a changed urban setting, such as "The Big Bang Faith".

These, in fact, to put it bluntly, are all urban backgrounds, not traditional fantasy otherworldly continent backgrounds.

In addition to these urban backgrounds, there is also a large category - the Heavenly Stream.

What is the flow of the heavens?

To put it bluntly, it is "a stand-alone unlimited stream".

It refers to the protagonist alone, no teammates, no team battle enemies, shuttling through various dimensional worlds, only dealing with "local natives", using the advantages of various prophets and prescients, seizing various opportunities, treasures, sister papers, etc...... Promote yourself in one category.

Because the strength level of the Heavenly Stream is very high in the later stage, it is natural for it to be classified as a fantasy.

But it is true that the Heavenly Stream is indeed not the traditional "Otherworldly Continent Fantasy".

So, after counting the above 59 books, we can see.

Fantasy set in the city,There are a total of 25 copies。

There are 5 copies of the Heavenly Stream.

The rest, which can be roughly classified as the background of "Traditional Fantasy of the Otherworldly Continent", are only 29 books!

Therefore, this kind of big data analysis is still very useful.

We can see that the fantasy theme can really be said to have declined - especially the traditional "fantasy of another worldly continent".

Why is this happening?

Let's do a little bit of it.

First, the fantasy of the otherworldly continent seems to have no threshold, but in fact, the threshold is extremely high.

Because we have done research before, most of the first books that many novices enter the pit are fantasy - such as "Breaking the Sky", "Douluo Continent", "Covering the Sky", "Yang God" and other famous works of great gods.

This has led to many novices having a soft spot for fantasy, and they are especially yearning for that magnificent world structure.

But the problem is that the threshold for this architecture is very high.

How difficult is it to completely elevate a world?

The world setting, the political system, the financial system, the power system......

Many novice authors can't control it at all, and they are biased when they write.

Something that is too open-minded and too unframed may not be a good thing for newbies.

Second, there is no innovation

Many people think that the innovation of fantasy is nothing more than modifying the power system and changing the various realms that they make up themselves.

But this is obviously a deeply erroneous perception.

Innovation is multifaceted, and readers are not stupid if it's just a pure change of skin.

It's 2019 now, and it's no longer an era where a simple sentence of "This is a world of vindictiveness, there is no fancy magic, and there is just a vindictiveness that has multiplied to the peak!" can attract readers.

How difficult is it to innovate on the basis of fantasy?

Most of them are just micro-innovations.

Third, the revival of aura and the rise of urban branches of heaven and earth mutations

In fact, we have always emphasized that the urban category is the most suitable for beginners.

As mentioned earlier, it is very difficult for a novice to build a completely new world, but if you make processing changes on the template of an existing world, it will be relatively simple.

It can even be said that it is much simpler.

The revival of aura and the change of heaven and earth are not a theme that only exists in the past two years, but in these two years, the potential of this theme has been tapped.

In fact, the limitations of the urban genre themselves are also very large - which is why many people like to write fantasy.

There was a time when urban authors let out a wail of "dancing in shackles".

Because of one accident, the river crab beast came with the 404 forbidden spell.

So there was a time when the urban class was also facing a "decline" situation.

But when the potential of themes such as "aura revival and heaven and earth changes" was tapped, everyone finally discovered, hey, this is very interesting!

I set the world in a parallel world or a futuristic world, and there is no political concept mixed in it, which naturally greatly reduces the risk of violating the ban.

Especially when the "King Spares His Life" replaces the national organization with the "Heaven and Earth Net", many authors are eye-catching.

The city is more inherently substitutional, but what bothered urban authors in the past was the upgrade system or the power system.

As we all know, the reason why fantasy can write hard is mainly because the power system is extremely high, as long as the author himself doesn't want to end, then he jumps the map hard!

But the traditional metropolis can't do that.

After combining the elements of aura revival and heaven and earth changes, the city's space for play has been greatly expanded.

A map that can jump in fantasy can be jumped in the city.

High-latitude world, Xianxia cultivation plane, starry sky hundred races compete for hegemony......

When the ceiling of the city's power system was broken, everyone found ...... In fact, it's still easy to write in the city.

I reviewed the opening chapter in the Xuanpai Literature Club, and the fantasy of the otherworldly continent occupies a large proportion.

And during this time, I advised my friends.

If you can, try to turn to an urban setting.

Some people say that if everyone follows the trend, wouldn't it be easy for a subject to be written badly?

What I want to say is......

If you don't follow the trend, others won't follow?

The Xuanpai Literature Club now has more than 1,100 paid members, even if these 1,100 people each have a copy of the Reiki Recovery Stream, can it really impact the current market?

Impossible.

The market is very large, and the waves are sweeping the sand, and if you don't write well, it's hard to get ahead no matter what the subject is.

It's well written, and following the trend just reduces the difficulty of this game.

Well, that's all for today's article, everyone is welcome to watch, if you like it, please click "Like" in the lower right corner of the article, so that more people can see this article.

Thank you.

At last:

If you want Pajama Bear to help review the opening chapter, you can join our Xuanpai Literature Club, and Pajama Bear will definitely try its best to help you solve your problems.

I feel that the general trend of the starting point of 18 years is indeed urban, and the urban ability is revived with aura, the heaven and earth have become the main stream, followed by the life flow is popular, and the fantasy is also a variety of innovations.
