The idea of the creative state was actually discussed in a separate chapter during the 600,000-word summary, so I won't go into details. The current state is getting better and better, and the thinking is becoming clearer and clearer.

But after writing a volume, two hundred and sixty-nine chapters, there are still many places to summarize.

Volume Title: Adjudication.

This can only be said to be a mediocre volume title that won't make mistakes. In fact, before starting to write, I seriously considered the title of this volume... because when outlining, the focus was placed on the second half of the book, so the entire first volume only served as an "introduction" and "presentation." Because I didn't think of a very good and wonderful volume title, I finally chose Adjudication, a relatively smooth and concise volume title, which corresponds to the main thread of the entire first volume.

The story of the first volume is actually very simple.

On the surface, Gu Shen joined the Adjudication Office and became a member of the Federal Assembly.

In the background, Xiao Gu has realized that the Federal Assembly is not as great and bright as he imagined. He took over the declining and dilapidated Gu Wen Hui (Ancient Text Society), and secretly accumulated strength. At the same time, the transcendent world of the Five Continents gradually emerged.

The word "Adjudication" actually comes from Lu Nanjin's slightly chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur) words to Gu Shen. In fact, Senior Sister Xiao Lu has always been an innocent and stubborn person. She is different from Mr. Shu. She is not a character in a "completed state" from the beginning.

Because she left Dadu alone, she had nothing to rely on except the long knife in her arms, so she could only firmly believe in the "justice" in her heart, which could bring light to the Lion Alley case.

Above the crown, fairness and justice are hung high.

In Nanjin's view... the Adjudication Office and the teacher, who have been performing tasks for ten years, represent such an image in the transcendent world.

And the "guilty people" in this volume seem to have received the "adjudication" they deserve.

For example... "Xiao" of the Changjiu Foundation, "Qin Ye" who created the Lion Alley tragedy, and "Zhao Qi" who exiled Madam.

But whether the adjudication is actual or not... everyone can experience it for themselves.

Perhaps this is the reason why Nanjin decided to leave Dadu.

The rhythm of this volume is indeed a bit slow. The reason why it is so slow... is because I tried to outline a world where "what the protagonist sees is what the reader sees." From ordinary people to transcendents, it always takes time. What he sees and what he comes into contact with, little by little, leads to Xiao Gu's own changes.

In addition, due to the characteristics of online novel serialization and my own creative speed, when encountering some plot points that require careful consideration, I will choose the writing method of "not seeking merit but seeking no fault," which leads to the plot advancement of the transition chapters being slightly weak, but fortunately the climax chapters are powerful enough. Currently, the average order has exceeded three thousand... but this seems to lead everyone to accumulate reading in the transition chapters, and the subscription has declined.

In the second volume, I will try to control the rhythm more closely.

The story of the Light Barrier is a difficult story to start. When I put it on the shelves, I said that reviewing the first volume will reveal that the overall framework is a shotgun blast, and then a return... Zhou Jiren, Bai Shu, Nanjin, Song Ci, Madam, Zhao Xilai, Gu Nanfeng, etc... In another parallel universe, they are all people who have their own lives. Before Gu Shen appeared, they also had their own persistence.

For me, the difficulty lies in how to follow their thoughts and support the plot after the characters intersect, and reach the "end" I envisioned.

After half a year of serialization, the overall outline of the first volume has also been cut a lot by me. The final presentation effect is still satisfactory. The effect of "introduction" has reached expectations. I can give it 70 points. In any case... the current Xiao Gu can be regarded as secretly sitting at the poker table, and has his own first hand.

The role of the second volume will be "progression", and the length should not be too long.

The second volume is probably the story of Xiao Gu starting to "play cards."
