Hey everyone, sorry I have been rather inactive since the hiatus/rewrite.
I have some good news and semi-bad news.
The good news is that the rewrite has officially entered the planning stage. I have identified everything I did wrong previously and know how I want the story to go roughly (for each volume).
I have also made some major changes and greatly expanded upon the details of the world that the SERIES takes place in (in a wide, but generalised way). I still need to get specifics decided like towns, kingdoms, clans, etc. for Book 1: Elemental Emperor.
AND YES, I have changed the name. It better matches the desired ending and the general naming theme of the 5 books.
Other than this, there are some major changes to the Cultivation Art, Cultivation itself (realms, naming, organisation of them and even what each realm does), Events of the 1st volume and even some major changes to Fan Zhi; included but are not limited to appearance, age (when first appears) and even personality.
The bad news is that the actual story's time of release/restart is unknown.
I have exams in November that will heavily decide my future and I want to do the best I can during them.
This leaves me with a variable amount of time to actually plan and expand upon my story,
Sure I tend to imagine/mentally plan vague things like what Volume 2 and Volume 3 will cover and such.
However, I will try my best to at least get volume 1 planned in the next couple weeks (or next month) so the first Volume can get out fast (planning helps me massively I have found).
In the meantime, in a couple of mins I will release a random fight scene I wrote a couple of weeks ago of Fan Zhi vs a Swordsman. Do note, this fight will have a rather basic/generic fighting style for Fan Zhi because I hadn't really begun thinking about his fighting style other than the weapon at that point.
So, toodle-doo
