Final Thoughts
Phew! It was finished. I finally got a proper night's sleep.
With no pressure or burdens at all, I slept from night until late morning. It had been a very, very long time since I had felt such complete mental relaxation. When I woke up, I felt as though I had been revived at full health.
The entire 2025 serialization had been a mess, a complete mess. Updates had been sparse, and I wore myself out. You brothers had an even harder time following along. I truly am sorry, so let me apologize to you all.
No matter what, it was finally complete.
It ended smoothly.
The completed extra, "After Eternity," was around five thousand words. It was required by Qidian and released alongside the completion event starting today, so it could not be changed for now. Brothers who fully subscribed could visit the event page to claim some gifts and enter a draw. If you were lucky, you might get a High Martial Crystal Ball. I personally liked it quite a bit. Originally, I wanted them to make an Eternal Divine Palace, but it seemed difficult to produce, so I gave up on it.
There would be another five or six extra chapters afterward, all free, roughly one chapter per week.
High Martial Era began serialization on March 1, 2024, and was completed on February 4, 2026.
Nearly two years, 3.92 million words—neither especially long nor especially short in terms of time or length.
I still vividly remembered that before starting this book, I had been holding back a breath of resentment.
At the time, Yuan Tianzun had just narrowly missed the 2023 Twelve Heavenly Kings. Among the candidate books, its total sales were above average, and its average subscriptions were not the worst among the candidates.
