Nine-Direction Tea Party 8 Future Outlook

Nine-Direction Tea Party 8-Future Outlook The "Naraku" volume has concluded. Taking this opportunity, I'll chat with everyone a bit more.

This volume is the opening of the second part of the book and can be seen as the prologue to the second part. The protagonist planned a trap for Naraku Heaven and the Tiangong to solve the hidden danger of "being descended upon by Naraku Heaven."

Resolving this crisis is the prerequisite for the second part to let go and show off, and the secrets of the heavenly gods and the Great Fanghu will also be gradually revealed.

Here, I will answer two questions that have been reflected more centrally.

First, until the end of this volume, He Lingchuan did not remove the Naraku Heaven mark in his mind, but chose to trap the Naraku Heaven avatar, preventing it from descending a second time, thereby ensuring his own safety.

Some friends are very dissatisfied: Why not remove the mark completely? This will leave hidden dangers! I understand everyone's desire for perfection, but there is a saying in reality:

Living in this world, things are not always satisfactory.

Millions of high school students study hard for more than ten years; why is it that only a small handful go to Tsinghua and Peking University in the end?

Is it because they don't want to go? It's because they can't pass the exam.

Why are more and more terminal patients accepting the concept of "living with cancer"?

Is it because they don't want to be healthy and free from disaster and illness?

It's because it can't be cured.

Similarly, is He Lingchuan's heart so big that he doesn't want to remove the mark?

It's because it can't be removed.

At least for now, if it can't be removed, it can't be removed.

In an objective environment and under limited conditions, from a country to an individual, one must learn to compromise, learn to save the nation through a curve, and learn to achieve the "best state for now."

Only by surviving and holding on first can there be infinite possibilities for slow planning.

Reality is like this, and so is the book.

I think this is the attitude of being pragmatic and seeking truth; such characters are the strength that transcends perfection.

The second question: Why does He Jing have so many scenes? Author, can't you find other places to pad the word count? Why spend so much ink on a supporting character? I believe the many readers who have seen the end of the volume have their own judgment, but after all, this is a popular work, and I hope to resolve the resentment as much as possible, so I will answer briefly: The Tiangong sits above Lingxu City.

Lingxu City is the center of Beijia.

Beijia is one of the most powerful countries in this world.

And He Jing, as the Cloud Envoy of the Tiangong, has a status in the Tiangong that is below one person and above ten thousand, on par with Bai Ziqi, and is a presence that even the Beijia Demon Emperor treats politely when meeting him.

To write briefly about such a person is a disrespect to the Tiangong and a disrespect to the heavenly gods. Deep down, it is also a disrespect to the protagonist's plans and efforts.

Secondly, the Tiangong team led by He Jing is the main combat force in the Panlong Secret Realm, a channel to understand the heavenly gods' attitude toward the Great Fanghu from the side, and the reason why the Naraku Heaven avatar could be guided by the Qianling Treasure Cover when it sneaked into the secret realm.

Why did He Jing insist on entering even though he knew the secret realm was a trap when he saw the Naraku Heaven avatar descend? This also has to do with the secret of the Great Fanghu, which will be mentioned later; I'll lay a bit of foreshadowing here first.

Therefore, the timing of He Jing's team's entry, the combat process, the final outcome, and the suspense left behind all need to be written with ink and cannot be simplified for the sake of simplicity.

He Jing's team has many scenes, just like "The Ideal Country of Demons (Part 2)". At that time, I used more than a dozen perspectives to write, just for one goal: to write the story well.

"Ensemble" is just a means, not a feature; it must ultimately serve the story.

Speaking of which, have you noticed that "Immortal" reads a bit differently from other books? It's not easy to summarize, nor is it easy to classify, but the story looks okay.

Perhaps because, in the book "Immortal," I just purely want to write a good story. All factors that affect the development of the story, such as emphasizing personality or showing off writing style, must be ranked after this sequence.

Some people also question me for reversing for the sake of reversing, lowering intelligence and logic. Actually, what everyone sees is the saved manuscript, which is the content written by the author with careful consideration and echoing from beginning to end. Shallow logical errors cannot be said to be non-existent, but they are really not many.

If you are determined that it is a logical error, you might as well mark it first; maybe there is another explanation later?

Writing to this point, I sincerely tell everyone:

I don't pad the text, and I won't pad the text (except for the description of food; there's no way, people always have some incurable hobbies).

The reason why most authors pad the text is that they have nothing to write but want to stretch the word count, so they can only pour water into it.

But the content I want to write is really too much:

The construction and expansion of the Young Master's territory in reality, his relationship with Bailie, and the protagonist's involvement in the grievances and entanglements between the Mou Nation, Lingshan, and Beijia.

The peak and contradictions of Panlongcheng in the Great Fanghu, the rise of Yuheng, the linkage between Panlong and Lingshan, and the war machine of Beijia/the gods...

Of course, there is also a hidden line, which is the secret plotting of the gods.

I have also said in advance that the second part of "Immortal" will reveal the secrets of the heavenly gods, Mitian, Panlongcheng, and the Great Fanghu. Therefore, the Panlong world is very important in the second major part, not only as one of the main lines but also to play a role in outlining and reflecting reality.

I will do my best to write it vividly and excitingly. I also hope that friends will invest more patience and grow together with He Lingchuan and Panlongcheng.

Look, there are so many main dishes to be served; I am busy from morning till night, is it really necessary to pad the text?

It's not that there's nothing to write, but that there's too much content to finish writing, simply can't finish writing.

But while adding content to the book, I also have to ensure that it is harmonious and natural, with orderly transitions, reading smoothly, richly, and interestingly.

Simply put, I have to control the rhythm and hold the heat.

After all, a successful novel cannot just have an outline and just talk about logic.

Presenting a unique aesthetic experience is my ideal; building a bridge between reality and the book, inviting readers to walk into the book to breathe and share destiny with the characters, is my task;

Letting everyone have one more complete world than those who don't read this book is the "Dao" I strive for.

I came to Qidian to prove such a "Dao".

How is it, frank enough? Nowadays, how many people who write books dare to talk about ideals lightly?

I came to Qidian to be extravagant in terms of ideals.

I hope everyone can become a book friend of mine, not a customer.

For the novel "Immortal," I have prepared to do my best, and I have no energy left to take care of everyone's emotions.

For those who look down on me, please stay away from me consciously.

Please respect everyone who works seriously.

As for the results of "Immortal" not yet reaching ten thousand subscriptions, please don't worry. Once the editor opens their eyes and gives a better recommendation, a light push will be enough. After all, switching from low opening and high walking to becoming a god in one book is the script we are most familiar with. Why not be confident?

Hi, of course, the ideal is very plump, and the task is very arduous.

I have never been a speed player. I have been writing books for 9 years, and there has never been a year where I could update 6000 words for a long time. So when I started "Immortal," I prepared 500,000 words of saved manuscripts, thinking I could last at least two years, but I didn't know it was about to bottom out now, cough.

It's all because the difficulty of writing this book is far beyond the past T_T I have been adjusting my state for the past two months and have had a very comprehensive physical examination. The problems found are also being actively treated.

Now I have to exercise for 3 hours every day, hoping that all indicators can return to normal values as soon as possible, and also hoping to get rid of the bad habit of turning day and night upside down as soon as possible.

I want to devote myself to the creation of "Immortal" with the healthiest physique and the fullest state.

The next volume "Bailie" is about to begin. The rhythm is slow in the beginning, let's update 5000 words every day first, I have to save some more manuscripts.

Bow again, thank you for your understanding and tolerance. —— Jiufang Ye / Fengxing Shuiyun Jian
