Cang's Ramblings

Chapter 1401 1399. Comments on "Stop the Witch"

Hello everyone, I am Cang Yiwei.

Today I would like to recommend a new book to you.

"Stop, Witch", Rong Xiaorong, a great writer.

Category: Xianxia-Fantasy cultivation of immortality.

Summary:
Traveling through the world of immortals and heroes, he became a Qi-refining disciple of Baiyun Temple.

Li Yu originally wanted to cultivate immortality in peace, seek immortality, and kill demons and monsters at the same time...

But in the middle of the night, a mysterious demon cult witch suddenly broke into his room and told him that he was actually an undercover agent of the demon cult...

【Brief Comment】

He has written many novels, including "Ruyi Xiaolangjun" and "The Immortal Official of the Great Zhou Dynasty", many of which ended unfinished.

In my impression, his style is the same as Guan Guan Gongzi and Ji Cha, and he is good at writing harem novels with multiple female protagonists.

Also a fantasy theme, Ji Cha's "Asking the Red Dust" can fully display his personal characteristics from the first chapter, but I have read all the existing 5 words of Duan Xiaorong's new book, but I still can't see his characteristics.

This isn't just my fault; many readers in the book community have expressed disappointment, so this outcome is definitely not the readers' fault, but the author's. It's no wonder the book isn't gaining popularity.

I thought about it, and the lack of obvious personal characteristics is one problem, and the lack of novelty in the routine is also a problem.

In recent years, all the routines of fairy-xia literature have been almost fully explored, including the steady flow, the anti-routine flow, the undercover flow, the weird cultivation flow, and the funny and imaginative mortal flow. Everyone seems to have seen them, especially after Fei Lu Feng broke into a certain point, all kinds of ways have been demonstrated.

After being baptized by these fantasy novels, the biggest feeling this new book gives people is plainness and ordinariness.

The protagonist is a time traveler, with a built-in Qiankun furnace in his chest that can absorb the energy of female ghosts and replenish himself. Although he is currently only at the bottom of the immortal world and has no great skills, his several experiences outside have fully demonstrated his outstanding strength among his peers. With the golden finger in hand, there is nothing to fear.

This setting weakened everyone's expectations. In terms of multiple female protagonists, the protagonist is introduced to the mountain gate by a female master from the Demon Sect. The protagonist becomes an undercover agent of the Demon Sect to infiltrate the righteous path. When the protagonist is promoted to the Qi Refining Stage and lacks spiritual medicine, it is this woman who provides the spiritual medicine. She gives three spiritual medicines in total: one for the protagonist, one for her best friend disguised as a man, and one for a cute tiger.

At this time, the images and roles of several female characters are not very obvious. The female devil is aloof, secretly in love with her gay friend, and the female classmate with a hot body is a fangirl, so it is convenient for her to drive a simple car with the protagonist.

But it didn't cause any waves among readers, because the speed of the car was very obscure and ordinary, not even funny.

The writing style is not funny, and there are cheat codes. If you remove a few unnecessary female characters, it is actually a low-profile version of "A Mortal's Journey to Immortality", or the previous boring period, because the few weird elements added are neither scary nor amazing, just like an ordinary little demon, just to increase some experience points.

Many people who have read a new book are most worried not about how it will surprise readers, but when it will end badly. In fact, readers can't be blamed for worrying too much, they are really afraid of making another wasted investment.

I won’t say much about the rest, as I’m afraid it won’t pass the review.

【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】

It doesn’t look good, but it does look bad.

We cannot erase other people’s previous achievements, we can only say that their writing style has changed and they want to try something different.

So we must allow it and support it.
