Starting My Cultivation With Time Management

Chapter 66 End of Book Testimonials

Talk about the writing process of this book.

From the original design to the finished product, this book has actually changed several versions.

The first version is avatar flow, which is similar to one person controlling several bodies, like opening multiple QQ accounts at the same time, controlling one side after another.

As a result, the book friends in the group said, Don't write, the doppelganger is a tauren.

The reason is that the Spanish fighters believe that the avatar cannot represent the main body, and that the avatar falls in love with a girl, which means that the main body is bullied.

Here the fighters are divided into two factions. Among them, the Protestant fighters believe that if the avatar is conscious, it is considered a bull, but if it is unconscious and completely controlled by the protagonist, it is not.

Pure-blooded fighters believe that the avatar and the main body are not the same individual, so as long as the avatar flow is considered a bull.

(There are also extremists here, who think that all soul-wearing protagonists are bulls, because the physical body was passed through the original owner)

I don't like cattle very much, so I will change it to time management.

—————————

The second version, Time Management, was originally designed to use the time manager from the Harry Potter series.

At the beginning, I designed a heroine character called Xie Lange, whose Tao name is Minghe. Like the protagonist, she also traveled from another world. The name before crossing is the previous name + Tao name backwards. . She also brought the time manager.

Then the protagonist just traveled over and there was an immortal master who couldn’t ascend through the catastrophe because of a serious injury and needed a sky-replenishing stone to repair the injury, so the protagonist was calculated to ask him to find fragments of the sky-replenishing stone, and as a reward, he passed on his own morality to the protagonist.

As a result, the editor said, This is not good. Many readers with a glass heart don't like the feeling of being calculated to do things (unless it is a master with a beautiful face, big waist, thin legs and long legs).

I don’t like teacher-student romance very much, because if I write, I will be reported, and if I don’t write, readers will be cursed. I don’t understand the difficulties of creators at all, so I changed Master to a kind version. Go find the sky-filling stone.

—————————

The third version, long single-line design.

The initial design was a vest for each volume. The protagonist first played Qiu Changtian and joined the Kunlun School, wrote at least 100,000 characters, and then turned around to open a new vest, playing Ling Yunpo and joining the Shushan School.

The main reason is that if the lens is switched frequently, it may be difficult for some readers to adapt.

As a result, the editor said, In this way, your golden finger will not be reflected.

The protagonist's golden finger is time management, multi-line operation, interspersed with each other, and several people set up to support each other, which is the core point of this article.

For example, if Ling Yunpo wanted to jump over the ranks and kill people, but he couldn't kill him, he asked Qiu Changtian to ask Ziwei to teach him the way. Qiu Changtian wanted to pretend to be aggressive in front of his junior sister, so he borrowed the advanced swordsmanship learned from Ling Yunpo.

If the lens is not switched, there is no way to operate multi-line, and this cool point is gone.

I'm not a person who likes to chase after the last, after all, it's fundamental to be refreshed. So I changed it to one character and wrote three or four chapters as much as possible before switching scenes. At the same time, I postponed the appearance time of other vests so that everyone could be familiar with the three names [Autumn Changtian] [Ling Yun Po] [Luo Yan] (in order to reduce the Understanding the threshold, even the protagonist’s real name will not be written for the time being)

—————————

The fourth version, Xianxia Flavor.

The very beginning of the plot is that the protagonist, as Qiu Changtian, relies on the peerless talent of Dao Xin to complete the road to the sky in Kunlun step by step, shocking the whole Kunlun faction, the elders compete to accept disciples, and finally being taught by Ziwei against all opinions Accepted as a personal heir...

As a result, the editor said, This routine is too vulgar, and where is the heroine? I want to see her in the first chapter.

Indeed, Xu Yinglian was originally planned to appear in the eighth chapter (and the name was Xu Qinglian at the time), but this is a bit slow.

I have struggled with this for a long time. At the beginning, should I first describe the Taiqing Emperor of Kunlun to highlight the fairy tale?

Or let Xu Yinglian appear as soon as possible, and unfold it in the way of light novels?

After struggling for almost a week, I finally chose the latter.

I don’t like to be slow, and the fairy tale flavor can be developed slowly later. If I can’t write one volume, I will write two volumes. If I can’t find the heroine at the beginning, readers will abandon the book.

—————————

The fifth version, Kunlun Mirror.

In the beginning, there was no Kunlun mirror. The protagonist used the time manager to run back and forth, and used compound decoction to disguise his appearance.

As a result, it would appear that the protagonist is too disrespectful. How bad it is to deceive senior brothers and sisters in order to make up for the fragments of the sky stone.

I don't like the protagonist, so I changed it to Kunlun Mirror Butian. The protagonist is for a noble purpose and has to mix into various sects as a last resort.

Acting as a character is just a fantasy. The protagonist's personality is actually very good. It would be very difficult to lie to someone.

—————————

The sixth version, mask flow.

In the beginning, there was no backstab of the Kunlun mirror, but the protagonist played various characters, and after getting all the fragments, he stood in the sky, with glued hands, one finger blocking the sword of Senior Sister An, and so on.

As a result, the book friends in the group also said, It feels like a spiritual tauren. What girls like is your disguise, not you.

I don't like messing around, so I banned all these book friends. Then arrange the backstab of the Kunlun mirror, and secretly reveal the real side of the protagonist without the protagonist's knowledge.

For example, Xu Yinglian, for Qiu Changtian's invincible design, has actually admired Qiu Changtian to the point of jealousy, pain, and even loathing himself.

In addition, this book is not the subject of sadomasochism, so it is absolutely impossible to have feelings in this way.

But Kunlun mirror quietly revealed the real side of the protagonist to her, and replaced her impression of Qiu Changtian bit by bit, which changed Xu Yinglian's perception of him.

Another example is An Zhisu's unyielding young Ling Yunpo, who is just a simple older sister who loves her younger brother; Miss Shi doesn't like Luo Yan who pretends to be stupid, etc...

If the protagonist always maintains the mask, there is no way to win them to look at them differently.

But with the backstab of the Kunlun mirror, it's different.

—————————

To sum up, the book has undergone deletions and revisions before its release, and a total of six major versions have been changed.

There are countless back and forth changes in the minor versions between major versions.

Here I would like to thank Ruo Ye, the editor in charge, for helping to read and modify the text many times.

I also want to thank the book friends in the group. I hope that in the future, I will post less pictures and discuss the plot more.

In the end, the version you see is far from perfect, but it is close to my own limit.

The remaining shortcomings are indeed impossible to optimize.

For example, some readers said that the frequent switching of the protagonist feels that it is impossible to substitute. In fact, the third version tried a long single line, but the biggest trick and the refreshing point of time management were not reflected.

Another example is that a reader said, Kunlun mirror needs the protagonist's help and backstabs are disgusting. In fact, the fifth version found that if there is no backstab, it cannot solve the problem of girls falling in love with masks.

That's about it.
