Reborn, I achieved legendary status with a single book.

Chapter 237 The Heavenly Dao's Backlash, Accumulated Over Three Thousand Years in the Small Town, I, Qi Jingchun, Will Shoulder the Burden Alone. (Please Subscribe)
"Another batch of new books has been released on Qidian. How are they doing this time?"

"Don't bother looking, it's close to the Chinese New Year. Some top authors, platinum-level authors, and well-known authors won't choose to release their books at this time. So, there probably won't be any good works in this issue."

"Hmm, I took a look. The most popular one only has 4 favorites, and the average one is around 2. There's not much to subscribe to this issue."

Many people started discussing it on SkyNet.

just.

This was something they hadn't expected.

When Xiao Chao released the data, everyone was shocked.

The book ranked first is not the new book with 4 collections.

Instead, it's a book called "Sword Comes" with only 2 copies in its collection.

of course.

It's not impossible for 2 favorites to surpass 4 favorites in subscriptions.

After all, some books have a lot of collections, but the subscription numbers are abysmal.

However, this book, which had 4 favorites, only saw 4000 orders placed in its first 24 hours.

This is a good result.

But that book, which had 2 subscriptions, kept exceeding 4000 and even broke 7000.

"2 favorites, 7000 subscriptions, a 3:1 subscription-to-collection ratio?"

"No, it was almost 2-1, am I seeing things?"

"This is the most terrifying subscription ratio I've ever seen on Qidian."

The authors rubbed their eyes.

7000 subscribers is a considerable number in itself.

Even top-tier authors might not get 7000 subscribers when they start a book.

Even if a book has 10 favorites, he might not have 7000 subscribers.

and so.

When you know a work with only 2 favorites and 7000 subscribers.

You'll then know how terrifying the subscription rate of this book must be.

"Hahaha, you idiot, it's obviously fake, and you still believe it."

"20,000 favorites and 7000 subscribers would mean at least one in three people reading the official version. Is that even possible? The best subscription I've ever seen is a 5:1 ratio. Anything higher than 5:1 is definitely fake."

"I also think it's fake; there's no need to read books like that."

Ok.

Many people immediately drew conclusions about him upon seeing this number.

But soon, others came to refute them: "What do you mean by 'brushing'? You didn't even look at it before you said it was brushing? You didn't even look at the book review section of Sword Comes. The total number of reviews for this book is at least 10 times that of other works."

"I've read it too. The book is actually quite well-written, but it's written in a very pretentious, artsy style. That scared away a lot of people, but most of those who did read it will subscribe."

"I am one of the subscribers. Out of 10 people I know who have been able to get into this book, 7 have subscribed."

"No way, is this book really that good?"

"How should I put it? If people like it and can get into it, then it's good. If they don't like it and can't get into it, then they won't subscribe or even add it to their favorites. So, I think that's why this book's subscription rate is so terrifying."

"Okay, I'll go take another look."

Previously, some friends had recommended "Sword Comes" on SkyNet.

But how to say it.

Personal recommendations are something that really can't change everyone's impression of a book.

You think this book is very good.

But others may not like it.

What you don't like, others may not.

What you see as a poisonous weed may be a miraculous plant in someone else's eyes.

What you see as a miraculous herb may be a poisonous weed in someone else's eyes.

There is no evaluation standard for this kind of recommendation.

but.

When a book is released, the subscription rate it displays is a real indication of the book's potential.

It's like.

It's ranked number one on the monthly ticket chart, do you think this book is bad?

Even if it's not good, you'll still go and read it to see what it's about.

……

Xianke, another moderator on SkyNet, is one of them.

Xianke manages the copyright of SkyNet's "Idle Talk of Jianghu".

This section is responsible for gossip within the online literature community.

This is also one of the most popular sections.

As for the reason.

Writing a book isn't something you can discuss every day.

I love the gossip in our circle the most.

What? Male and female authors met in real life and started writing together.

That's what happens when authors fight each other.

Those kinds of Infernal Affairs movies, you know.

These are all points that are extremely attractive to everyone.

However, since it's essentially a gossip forum within the industry, most of the discussions revolve around the author and the book.

He had seen someone recommend the book "Sword Comes" before.

He clicked to take a quick look, and then closed it.

He felt the book didn't quite suit his taste.

As for whether or not to force yourself to keep watching.

He's neither the author nor the editor... why should he force himself to read it?

Even authors and editors have their own tastes.

Sometimes you just can't get into something.

Even if you force yourself to keep reading, you might not be able to figure out how well the book is written.

This was Xianke's idea before.

But it's different now.

The 2 favorites and 7000 subscribers are undeniable facts.

If you continue to ignore this book, things will get a little out of hand.

As it is now.

A huge number of people on SkyNet are discussing "Sword Comes".

He hadn't even seen the posts or participated in them, which was somewhat awkward for him.

Upon entering the starting point, Xianke resumed reading the novel titled "The Sword Comes." Meanwhile...

He seemed more serious this time, so as not to repeat himself like last time.

However, they were more serious.

After reading the first chapter, Xianke still didn't understand some parts.

If it was before.

He definitely won't continue watching.

Even if you continue reading, you'll probably only skim through the later chapters.

But the data was so good that he patiently looked at it again.

There are still some things I don't understand.

Xianke was considering giving up on the book.

He clicked on the book review section of "Sword Comes".

Seeing that dozens of posts appeared every time the "Sword Comes" book review section was refreshed, Xianke turned his attention back to the book.

This time, Xianke was extremely serious.

He was even afraid of making a single mistake.

It was on this occasion that Xianke finally began to understand things a little better.

"It's still somewhat interesting, but..."

After briefly recalling the plot of the book, Xianke found it somewhat interesting, but there were some parts he didn't understand.

He opened the book review section, wanting to see what everyone thought.

Don't say it yet.

There are many people who share his thoughts.

"Can someone explain to me what this book is actually about?"

"Everyone says this book is good, can someone give me a brief review?"

"I also want to know."

I'm thinking of posting a question here.

But when he looked at the pinned section, he found a post that answered the questions of many readers.

This post wasn't made by the author, but by a very enthusiastic book lover.

"I see that many people have questions about Sword Comes. I've read the first 20 words at least ten times. Please feel free to ask me anything you want."

Below this post are questions from a group of book lovers.

"Why is it that the protagonist, Chen Ping'an, is unable to obtain any opportunities?"

"Because Chen Ping'an's parents shattered his natal porcelain, all the opportunities in the town will come to him. But because he doesn't have a natal porcelain anymore, the opportunities will leave him. Also, this is only the surface meaning. I think the author has foreshadowed this part, but it can't be explained in the first 20 words."

"Excuse me, is it really true that Chen Ping'an has no opportunities whatsoever?"

"No, although many opportunities will pass Chen Ping'an away, it's not like he has no opportunities at all. For example, he met Qi Jingchun, which is one of his biggest opportunities. Qi Jingchun taught him many principles, and Qi Jingchun warmed Chen Ping'an's childhood. At the same time, Qi Jingchun also gave Chen Ping'an a super big opportunity."

"What is it?"

"The old sword under the bridge in the small town."

"Damn... I seem to remember this sword. How come I didn't think of it back then? OP, I have another question. Was Qi Jingchun a Confucian sage?"

"Qi Jingchun is not a Confucian sage. He is a disciple of another Confucian sage, but he also has the ability to establish a Confucian school and be called a sage. His knowledge is not limited to Confucianism. He also integrates Taoism and Buddhism, combining the three teachings into one."

"Excuse me, why is that dragon so evil?"

"Is the dragon you're talking about Zhi Gui? If so, she's not inherently bad; she just wants to live. Besides, she's a true dragon in disguise. For over three thousand years, she's endured countless punishments from the Buddhist, Taoist, and Confucian schools. Now that she's finally free, she cherishes her life even more. As for Qi Jingchun, he's always felt sorry for the true dragon clan and has always treated her like a daughter."

"Wow, OP is awesome... After reading your explanation, I understand this book much better now. I'm going to reread this book; I suddenly realized that it's fucking interesting."

Xianke also read through all of these posts.

finally.

These posts clearly explained a series of things he hadn't understood before.

to this end.

Like the others, Xianke started watching it again.

There are benefits to rewatching it.

Some words that I didn't pay attention to before, I didn't notice at all on the first or second time I looked at them.

But now that I understand, looking back, I realize that all of this was foreshadowing.

until.

When Xianke saw Qi Jingchun teaching Chen Ping'an the principle of "a gentleman does not save," Xianke greatly admired this Confucian gentleman.

However, just as everyone finally understood the meaning of "The Sword Comes," a crisis struck the town.

It turns out that the true dragon energy of more than 3000 years is not a continuous source.

More than 3000 years have passed.

Nourished by the dragon's aura, the town produced countless talented individuals.

However, such a situation is not tolerated by the laws of Heaven and is contrary to the laws of Heaven.

More than 3000 years later, Heaven will inevitably retaliate.

The town's more than 6000 people will all die in this divine retribution.

This day.

A rare guest arrived at the largest restaurant in town.

This person was Mr. Qi.

After finishing his last glass of wine and his last bite of food, Mr. Qi put down his chopsticks.

The small town suddenly fell silent.

The entire Lizhu Cave Heaven was shattered, its mountains and rivers broken, and its spiritual energy dissipated.

The once vibrant town now seems to have completely lost its vitality.

As the well water level dropped, the leaves of the ancient locust tree that had sheltered the town for thousands of years began to turn yellow, and leaves fell one by one.

The series of statues that used to stand in the town were all broken.

The entire town, like humans, is destined to grow old and die.

And just then.

There was a person who was all white, with flowing sleeves, and his body slowly grew larger and larger.

In the blink of an eye, it had already reached tens of millions of feet.

Its towering form pierces the sea of ​​clouds.

The Lizhu Cave Heaven, which was on the verge of collapse, transformed into a bead and floated in his palm.

This tall, scholarly man was none other than Qi Jingchun.

He used all his cultivation to protect the collapsing Lizhu Cave Heaven.

Subsequently.

He raised his head and said loudly, "I, Qi Jingchun, will shoulder the responsibility for the backlash from the Heavenly Dao accumulated over three thousand years in this small town."
