Let me first talk about why I started writing this book. Back then, I had just finished reading Against The Gods up to the point where Mo Beichen was defeated, but... everyone knows what came after that... I had nowhere to vent all that anticipation...

At the time, my expectations were sky-high, so I kept imagining how the Abyss arc would unfold. That was when I first got the idea for this book.

Another reason was that, as a complete newcomer, I wanted to write a book to sharpen my writing skills...

I'll make a bold promise here: no matter what, this book will have at least one million words! Regardless of how it performs. (Unless it gets 404'd, of course...)

Even though the timeline spans quite a while, I started this book rather hastily, because I'm a lazy person and really didn't want to get moving.

So I figured I'd just write and post it directly. That would give me some motivation too...

And it turns out I was right. I update at least one chapter every day now, and before I knew it, there were already twenty chapters. Not bad...

If I hadn't posted it, I probably wouldn't even have written Chapter One yet...

So the beginning of this book might feel a little strange to you guys, since I basically wrote whatever came to mind in the first chapter...

Next, let's talk about this book's stats—

This book gets a dozen or so views every day, with zero favorites or maybe one or two. The numbers were pitifully low, but yesterday the graph suddenly shot upward... Six favorites in one day—can you believe that?!

As for the reason, I think everyone understands... But honestly, it left me not knowing whether to laugh or cry. I'm following the book too, and I'm exhausted, okay~

Still, I've never promoted this book at all. I only cast six recommendation votes for it myself. You all must have stumbled across it while searching, right?

I just took a glance. Originally, the book only had my own six recommendations, but when I posted Chapter Twenty-One today, it instantly jumped to more than fifty recommendations! You guys are amazing.

I'm feeling excited right now. It means people are actually reading this book... For nearly an entire month, I didn't get a single recommendation vote! Then today, I got fifty at once. It may not seem like much to many people, but to me, it's incredibly precious...

For a new author with absolutely no foundation—what does this mean? It means I'm improving. It means people think my writing is decent! It means I'm finally not writing into the void anymore. I could cry...

I feel like this book's new-release stats on Zongheng are actually pretty decent. I think it even reached thirteenth place on the new book rankings...

After all, I've never done any promotion or gotten any recommendation slots. I've just kept my head down and written. You all probably found this book by chance while searching.

Though the title itself is fairly attention-grabbing, and that probably played a big part too.

Next, about the plot: the setting will definitely follow the original work as closely as possible.

There's something very important!

This is Reverse Time-Space. The Reverse Time-Space of the Against The Gods world... We will go to the God Realm, but much later on.

The next dozen or so chapters will absolutely be insanely satisfying. If you don't find them satisfying, don't doubt it—that's probably because of the author's writing ability...

Please be kind to a new author...

Next, let's talk about updates.

Since I still have school, my current plan for next month is to guarantee at least 3,000 words a day.

I won't make any other promises, or I might end up eating my words...

One more thing... I'll make a bold prediction here—I feel like Against The Gods should update today. It didn't update two days ago because there was a break. Zongheng allows one day off per month while still keeping the full-attendance bonus...

Summary complete.

Time to write!
