Written before the ending
There are about 5-6 chapters left before the ending. The final ending chapter may be longer and divided into two chapters.
It’s almost over, there are some things we can talk about.
Let’s talk about the update first. I was really tired in the second half. I wanted to give up many times and take a long vacation for myself. But I know better how difficult it is to put down a book and pick it up again. I gritted my teeth and continued. persist in.
The update speed is indeed a bit slow, but I am extremely satisfied with the writing speed.
Serialized for one year and four months, with 4.12 million words, twice the update rate during the Hongzhu period and three times the update rate during the Hantian Emperor period.
Even this month, at the beginning of the month, I said I could update a single chapter of 150,000 words and it would be considered a success if it could be updated continuously. But in the end, as of today, more than 200,000 words have been updated.
I don’t want to show off my merits or say that I have worked hard.
Everyone works hard to make a living.
It’s just that sometimes, I’m actually very tired and I feel I’ve tried my best. I don’t ask for praise, but I just hope in my heart that at least I won’t be scolded with my head pointed at my head and my face covered with it. That’s all.
Novel is just a diversion from life. I know that life is very tiring for everyone now, and the hostility of the overall environment is also very important.
It’s just that I always say that, commercial novels are meant to make people feel happy and refreshing.
If you find the novel ugly and uncomfortable to read, it may be best to read it in another book or find other ways to relax.
Most novels that can satisfy the starting 1% of readers can be ordered by tens of thousands...that is, every novel with tens of thousands of orders is regarded as "very poisonous", "unsightly" and "unreadable" in the eyes of most readers. Go down' level.
Even if a book is ordered for 100,000 people, it will only satisfy less than one-tenth of the starting readers.
…
The content of the book itself does not exceed the length of the book and is basically within the control and initial outline.
A long time ago, I expected to finish it around mid-December, when it would be just over 3 million words. Based on the continuous burst of updates at that time, the entire book was expected to be 4-4.1 million words.
So far, the final completion will not exceed 4.2 million words, which is basically under control.
…
According to the time of writing, they are "Hantian Emperor", "Hongzhu" and "Yuan Tianzun"
According to the story timeline, they are "Hong Zhu", "Han Tian Emperor" and "Yuan Tian Zun". I just want to point out that before writing each book, I never thought about writing a sequel, so many small settings may conflict, which is difficult to avoid. I hope everyone understands.
Secondly, the reason why I didn’t say it was a trilogy at the beginning was because I didn’t want old readers to place all their expectations on the characters in the old books.
The so-called trilogy, but the timeline of each book spans a long time, and the stories are basically independent. Even if the characters from other books appear, they are just embellishments.
Some of the foreshadowing and hidden lines were actually written very early on, such as the four paths to the strongest, like "The Original Law", which is the "lawless way" in Hongzhu. There are also foreshadowings, which some old readers should feel.
When writing about the two major schools of heart-dream and heart-qi, this is actually hinted at.
It doesn’t mean that when the book reaches the stage of being a true saint, I suddenly have a brain twitch and start writing a trilogy.
It was only at that stage that some foreshadowing was revealed.
Of course, these are not important. The stories of the three books are independent.
It is okay to read only one book.
After reading three books, you may be more satisfied when you see the different characters interspersed in the book and their stories at different stages.
…
As for the ending, many clues were laid out very early. When the secret is finally revealed, I believe everyone will wake up.
My personal habit, in order to ensure the coherence of the whole book, is to start and end with this point. I am also used to setting one of the highest strengths of the book in the early stage as a limit to the length.
"Emperor Hantian" begins with the Song Emperor and the Asura Ancestor. The final ending is also the end of the grudge between the Song Emperor and Jiang Han, and the end of the cause and effect between the Asura Ancestor and Jiang Han. It is the finale. Although there are some other clues and branches in the middle, It will not affect the outcome.
The same is true for "Hongzhu". It starts from Long Jun's story and ends with the end of Long Jun's story.
The same will be true in "Yuan Tian Zun". It starts with Hou Tuzu Wu and Zuta in the early stage. Then, when the story of Houtu Zuwu and Zuta comes to an end, the whole story ends.
Of course, in the final ending, some pitfalls will be filled in as much as possible, including the endings of some side stories in the first two books, and the endings of some side stories in the first two books will be explained as clearly as possible to bring the trilogy to a successful conclusion.
That’s all.
Thank you all for your support along the way.
