Cang's Ramblings

Chapter 733 729. Comments on "The Other Side of Deep Space"

Hello everyone, I am Cang Yiwei.

What I want to talk about today is Chen Dong’s new book.

"The Other Side of Deep Space", Chen Dong, platinum writer.

Category: Urban-supernatural powers.

【Introduction】

In the vast universe, the birth and death of a galaxy is nothing more than a momentary flash of light.

Looking up at the starry sky, I always feel a sense of sadness, a sense of predetermined fate. Where will you and I be thousands of years from now? Our homeland, the flames of civilization, and the Earth itself are all just a speck of dust in deep space.

A moment in the starry sky is a thousand years on earth.

Insects chirp all their lives but in autumn, you and I are both struggling to get through it.

What lies at the end of deep space?
【Golden Five Chapters】

Chapter One: Old Earth. In the future, Earth has become Old Earth, and scattered techniques have become old techniques. As he bids farewell to university, the protagonist, Wang Xuan, has achieved minor success in his cultivation.

Chapter Two: Time flies. This technique was initially extremely popular, with classes opening across the land. It's said that the elders of the Nova World, yearning for immortality, sent people to Earth in search of talented practitioners.

Chapter 3: The Life Extension Project. Wang Xuan devoted himself to cultivation, making significant progress in both Qi gathering and internal cultivation. However, in the eyes of the Nova humans, the rules had changed, and practicing the old techniques was of little use.

Chapter 4: The Supernatural. At either end of the starry sky, different destinies await. While the friend has found a way out, the protagonist's future remains to be determined by the final decision of the higher-ups. Meanwhile, the supernatural is becoming a hot topic in the Nova World.

Chapter 5: Discarded Like a Worn Shoe. Wang Xuan's speculation matched his friend's information: the old art had been abandoned. Yet, he refused to resign himself. Gazing up at the stars, he concluded that the existence of immortals and myths was unimportant. He would test the path of the old art through his own experience.

【Brief Comment】

Skillful.

Chen Dong published five chapters of his new book on the first day, totaling 1.17 words, which completely matched my golden five chapters.

The fit is perfect!
After reading it, I savored it again.

It does have a familiar smell.
The plots of Ye Fan's farewell to university, slapping his classmates at a reunion, climbing Mount Tai, seeing the Nine Dragons pulling the coffin, and going straight to Mars are different in "The Great Ruler".

The plot of "Holy Ruins" is different for the time being, including Chu Feng's breakup with his ex-girlfriend in college, his journey to Kunlun alone, seeing the flowers of the other shore bloom, encountering various miracles, and appearing as a god in front of people.

The protagonist Wang Xuan in "The Other Side of Deep Space" practices in a low-key manner with an uncertain future. Even though he is looked down upon by his classmates, he still firmly believes in his heart and decides to prove his truth on his own.

At first, it struck me as a science fiction novel, similar to Final Eternity's "Under Deep Space" and "Deep Space Wandering Fleet." But before anyone else could compel him, Final Eternity himself began writing "The World Enters the Age of Mythology."

This fully demonstrates that Chen Dong’s choice was correct. It is difficult to achieve results with pure science fiction themes.

If you want to achieve results, you have to go for fantasy and urban.

I took a look at the fantasy category, and the contenders include "The Embers of the Long Night," "The Ten Martial Saints," and "Walking on the Abyss." Frankly, if Chen Dong's new book were in the fantasy category, it would definitely go toe-to-toe with Wu Zetian. If it were in the science fiction category, Heishan Laogui's "Starting from the Red Moon" would hardly be a match for Chen Dong's.

Many prophets had predicted that after "Lord of Mysteries", the only one who could defeat Squid was himself.

However, after the release of "The Embers of the Night", more and more people were able to beat Squid in terms of performance.

As for the Xianxia category, the popularity of "The Night Watchman of Dafeng" and "This Human Immortal is Too Serious" has always been high and is not easy to deal with.

Therefore, after considering the content, the final choice of "The Other Side of Deep Space" was the urban category.

There are so many books in the same category as "Supernatural Powers": "The Naming of the Night", "Gu Dao Changsheng", "Blue and White Society", "Selling Crimes", and even "The School Beauty's Personal Bodyguard".

So, this is not being cowardly, but being fierce!
Because neither elbows nor dancing are easy to deal with.

Chen Dong is "using his own weaknesses to attack the enemy's strengths"!

After the first round, "The Other Side of Deep Space" ranked fourth in the monthly ticket list and second in the urban category, which is very impressive.

As for the future direction of this book, I will continue to follow up and report.

I did the same thing when I made "The Embers of the Long Night" and "Keep Calm and Don't Wave".

So, if you are still hesitating whether to follow Chen Dong’s new book, please continue to hesitate.

However, I suggest that you continue to follow me, especially my trial reading experience.

You know, Chen Dong's "The Great Ruler" has always been a favorite of our post-80s generation of readers.

【to sum up】

Writing is not easy, so cherish every moment.

I’m Cang Yiwei, and I’m here to promote “Cang’s Ramblings”.

Welcome to the paradise of book reviews.

【Cang's Ramblings】

To be fair, Chen Dong's books are worth reading.

As long as he updates regularly, his results will definitely surpass many platinum and top players.

The plot doesn't even break down mid-plot.

But, we should always be prepared for the worst.

So, we can only wait and see~
