In order to pursue reality, the realm of spiritual practice is developed step by step from the perspective of the protagonist. Before that, I was afraid that readers would not have an impression of these realms.

This may still not please readers, but it at least shows that I did not rush into online novels without any understanding, as many people criticized me.

I have considered the feelings of online readers.

…

beyond these issues.

I think the ending of the first volume is quite perfect, and I would give myself a nine out of ten.

The reason I gave it one less point is because I didn’t have enough time to polish it carefully.

At the end, there were very intensive camera switching, and I pushed every shot to its limit within the time limit.

There were many, many characters appearing like a revolving door, but I expressed what I wanted to express.

Some fragments cannot be separated and can only break up the timeline. Some fragments must be coherent and can only bridge the space line.

With such complex characters, time lines, and space lines, I gathered them together and unfolded them in an orderly manner.

I did my best at this stage.

From the monk from the Criminal Division who committed suicide to deliver a message, the old gentleman who stood in front of the students, the Maplewood City soldier who collapsed and jumped into the ground... From these characters who didn't even have names, to characters with names, to the early stage characters.

Important supporting role.

Each of them has his own flesh and blood and his own life.

Their spirit, will, love, hate, and choices are all clearly displayed to the readers.

I am very satisfied.

The last time I tried this was when I was writing about the Blue Bird Disaster in Dawn. Qinghou set up a trap to kill Duke Ying Li, and Chu Yu was tricked into liberating the real dragon.

But compared to that time, there are more characters, a wider field of view, and even more difficulty.

This kind of large-scale ensemble drama becomes much more difficult every time there is an additional character.

But I still finished it.

The improvement in my writing ability is what makes me most happy.

On the layout of the article.

The truth about the history of the Zhuang Kingdom, the history of the human race and the aquatic race, the Pulse Opening Pill, the ferocious beasts, and the White Bone Path are all peeled off layer by layer.

In the end, Maple Grove City sank into the netherworld, and Jiang Wangyuan left for a foreign country. This ending was already foreshadowed in Huan Zhen Guanwai.

The planning of the Bone Path and the choices of Zhuang Ting as a national political power run through the entire volume.

It can be as large as a country or a family, or as small as one person in a city. In the context of a world of great strife, in the collision between ideals and reality, everyone needs to make their own choices.

All the holes were filled so tightly that the dead body could not be lifted up.

And I haven’t used up the foreshadowing I laid in the first chapter. The so-called journey of thousands of miles has only covered a few hills.

In terms of creating group portraits, I think I have made progress compared to the past.

But I still need readers to tell me what the result will be.

There are many characters that impressed me deeply, but I don’t know which ones are more popular among readers.

…

The last three words in the first chapter are the Pulse Opening Pill.

Someone scolded me: "Why did you write so much and work so hard and finally give me a 'Pulse Opening Pill'?"

if not?

Two dragons are fighting in front of you, both will be injured, and a magic weapon will be revealed for you, okay?

I won’t give the protagonist too much credit. Although this is just a novel, it is also a world in my heart.

In a real world, you have to work hard to succeed!

As a thing, it doesn't seem precious enough.

But it is the beginning of Jiang Wang’s spiritual path, the rise of human spiritual practice, and the beginning of this story.

I spent 350,000 words writing the first volume and laying the foundation of this world.

I am confident that I can build a magnificent world on this basis.

But I need readers to support me so that I don’t starve to death while building bricks and walls.

Many people may not know that when writing online articles at Qidian, you also need to own the copyright of all short stories written by the author during the serialization period. This is nothing to others.

For me, it means that during the writing period, I had no income other than this book.

Because my original job was to write commissions, columns, short stories, and scripts.

I wrote it with the determination not to make a penny for a whole year.

There is no other good news except that I am glad that I have broken up a long time ago and don't have to worry about my guilt towards my partner.

…

One day I saw someone in the reader group saying

"Today's authors are so impatient. If a book with more than 100,000 words is recommended by tens of thousands of people, they will say that the results are not good and they should be cut off immediately. I really want to catch them and let them learn from it."

This topic is actually quite sad, because as of now, I only have 4,000 recommendations for my novels. My collection has just exceeded 1,000, and the average number of orders is over 60.

I wrote 350,000 words with guaranteed quality and quantity!

And I am still lighting the lamp and burning oil to write.

In the past, I only wrote about five days a week, and only wrote 2,000 words a day. I spent the rest of the time resting and nourishing my brain.

Now I write at least 5,000 words every day, and I haven't had a break for more than a month.

My mind is very excited and I am also very tired.

I actually understand those authors very well.

If you regard writing novels as a simple job, a business.

Actually this is quite reasonable.

Because all that needs to be considered is performance and income.

For online articles, if there is no achievement during the new book period, it will be very slim, because you will not have subsequent recommendations, and the sunk cost of writing further will be too high.

Cut it off, change the number, change the book. Change the number again, change the book again. Choose the one with the best results and write it down. This is how business should be done.

There is no need to wait until it reaches hundreds of thousands of words. The editor should have cut it the first time he recommended it to Liangmen.

but.

What if it wasn't just a job, what if writing a novel wasn't just about making money, but it was truly your dream?

Sorry, I...can't cut it.

I said sorry to myself.

There are simple columns that can be written, and the deposit is paid to me in advance. There are simple articles that can be written. As long as I give up this pen name, cover my head and pour water, I can publish them and get money directly. Not to mention those advertising soft articles that can be published in a few clicks.

.

There were many easy ways for me to take, but I chose the hardest one.

I put myself in the most painful situation.

Just because of the simplest reason.

A reason that no one or many people will believe anymore.

because of love.

I love these characters I wrote, and I love the world I built.

Everything I do and all the distances I travel are for the love in my heart.

For this love.

I'm willing to work harder and wait.

…

The title of the first volume is "The bright moon is in the sky."

The bright moon can be ideal, it can be love, it can be hometown.

"It's as bright as the moon, when can I break it?"

From Cao Cao's "Dan Ge Xing".

"The moon is bright and clear, when can I pick it?"

Like Jiang Wang, I have my own pursuits and ideals, my own loves and hates, and my own hometown in my heart.

And the name of the next volume is
Chapter completed!
