2026.2.15 Literary review writing of What Is Rebirth? This review contains a lot of meaningless screaming and spoilers, so newcomers should read with caution! Stacked armor is just my feeling after reading this. The original content is quoted, but the proportion is very low, and it should not be suspected of violating the author's rights. I coded about 15k at first, but finally deleted this much... @ General comment This is so well written. It's really amazing. It's one million words and four hundred chapters. You can open a chapter at random, even if it's a story that hasn't been told clearly yet. The main point of view has not yet been pushed to the point where the plot is obscurely revealed from other people's perspectives. It is still said in the setting stage. After you know the whole plot, you don't feel inconsistent. At most, you feel why it is so obscure. But because the person who said this was designed by the author, he was indeed an outsider at the beginning and did not understand it, so it was normal. Because I have been watching it back every time in the past few years, and only after watching plq did I realize that I had to guess here back then, and it had not yet been decrypted. It just looks really consistent. I personally think it's really rare to be able to preserve the diversity of everyone's characters and not be OOC at all in such a huge worldview and so much of the past. The gray line of grass and snakes lies thousands of miles away, this is so well written... I personally think this book is a masterpiece of the author's imagination, a very excellent work. In addition to being logically self-consistent, there are many other points. The character setting is very symmetrical. In chapter 80, the junior brother will know the past of the senior brother, and in the 160th chapter, the senior brother will know Chen He's past life. After this, there are still two to three hundred chapters that still have something to write and have not been repeated. Feelings can be said to be extremely pure. In such a complex worldview, the feelings are so pure and the protagonist does not seem weak or idealistic. It is such a healthy and sound love. So beautiful, so aesthetic. I gain something every time I read this article, and I feel it after my mood changes... I love so passionately and purely. @Conjectures on main character design and group portraits In terms of character creation as a whole, I think Senior Brother > Junior Brother > Li Yan. But Junior Brother + Li Yan > Senior Brother. This is my personal opinion, because Li Yan is from an outsider's perspective most of the time, and the Li Yan who actually appears later is not the real Li Yan, but a character who combines Li Yan's memory fragments with the current Chen He. Therefore, although he appears, I don't think he can be portrayed as a complete person, and can only be thought of as another part of his junior brother. Of course, the author did not create them separately, and the senior brother did not understand them separately, but readers may... However, these two are really good. Every reincarnation of Yang Xinyue is very easy to beat, and the "human" part of his body is also very strong. The arrogance of the ancient monks, the anger of being attacked, the confusion of sleeping for eight thousand years, and the confusion of "why does this ginseng have such a bad temper" when fighting Shen Yubai? He is also a very three-dimensional character. But Nan Hong is that I haven't seen a character that can really be compared to him until now. But if you write a character like Nan Hong in this life, you will be very successful. Do you understand? And a very valuable point is that both Shi Zhonghuo and his senior brother are partly similar to Nan Hong, and at the same time they are very cute when they get along with him [it will not appear like the left and right hands of the same person are talking to each other, everyone has their own personality], but Nan Hong is unique. It's just that I feel that it would take a million-word essay to carve out such a character. But not everyone can have such a role in a million-word long novel. As for the master, even a mortal can continue on without any sense of disobedience, because he does not feel that he is too weak when he has strength. It's just that the settings of the protagonist's attacks and attacks have been thrown away in the first two hundred chapters [I'm not saying that the plot of the protagonist's attacks and attacks is not rich. In fact, I don't think it will be repeated in the future]. But Nan Hong continued to throw in new settings until the last fifteen chapters, and it was completely appropriate. Moreover, many articles say that they don't mind if someone is stronger than me, saying: Ah, this xx and I are a family, but in fact, even my closest Taoist companions and children cannot let them be stronger than me, but this article can really make the protagonist not be the strongest. After reading a lot of thoughts (Diaijia does not mean to join the party, but I) I feel that good works are like this that you can look back at anytime! There is a very good design, which means that the examples that must be used when characterizing the protagonist must be the people around him. There are such three-dimensional group portraits of villains and heroes. Because it's boring to write about righteous people. Three-dimensional villains are often easier to write than three-dimensional righteous characters. The three-dimensional righteous characters often turn into complaints or jokes, or people whose ideas are not exactly the same as those of the protagonist, but the author hardly sees such a bottleneck. The author can write funny stories, or he can write very serious ones. Cui can be so three-dimensional because he is a person who doesn't touch anything. For example, Immortal Lord Yunchen is so three-dimensional because his accompanying immortal weapons are Huanjian and Black Abyss Valley Master (the reason for stacking armor is that he appeared relatively late). And conspiracy theories have deceived many people. If you want to write about a kind person, you will be like a saint. If you want to write about someone who is not evil, some people say that being dark will be boring. Being obsessed with the past and always being sad will make the reader ordinary. If you write about someone who is not sad at all, it will make the reader feel pretentious. To put it simply, it is easy to write about justice, to be like a saint, to write about kindness, to be pretentious, to write about sadness, to be pretentious, and to write about open-mindedness, it is easy to be pretentious. But the shaping of Nam Hung succeeds in this situation. And there is no trace of carving at all, as if it is natural. @About the relationship between Chen He and Li Yan And what's particularly embarrassing is that Li Yan looked down on Chen He at first. Wow, you are so lucky. You have such a good senior brother and master, you have an innate fire spirit as a playmate, and you grew up in the Black Abyss Valley where all the gods are transformed into Mahayana. I don't envy you, nor am I jealous, I just despise you. When Li Yan knew that "Chen He also liked his senior brother, and Chen He also made his senior brother like him and stay together", he realized, ah, it turns out that the other me is also me. That is to say, Li Yan doesn't care about everything Chen He has. He doesn't care about Chen He's less hardship or more happiness. He doesn't care about the gold, silver, treasures, heavenly materials and earthly treasures that Chen He may have. He has plenty. He believes that even in this situation he can achieve everything. But he must admit that Chen He loves his senior brother. Because that's who he is. That is, it turns out that the other me is also me, and it turns out that I can also be like this. It turns out that this is me too. Only Ye Feng can write such a healthy relationship so well. Because the love is the same, even though the path is different. That is, he could admit that it was me who was happy, loved, self-respecting, and accompanied by my senior brother. It's not the other person I envy, it's not the mirror image that doesn't exist, it's not the other side that I can't reach. And that's me. That is, he actually chose to become Chen He (of course, he has always been this way, this is just Li Yan's phantom, but for him who thinks he is Li Yan, he will not accept it so simply) The two intertexts between Chen He ver Li Yan and Li Yan ver are quite interesting. It turns out that I am not destined to live alone for hundreds of years, it turns out that I am not destined to draw faceless people, and it turns out that I am not destined to stand by the stream where he once lived and wait for someone who will never come back. It turns out that I can also be happy (this kind of happiness is closely related to senior brother, but it is not just about getting senior brother). But from the senior brother, he knows, it turns out that this is me too. : The other me is also me, that kind of me is also me, and the me now may not be the me in the future, and I may not be the me now. Why is it not because he is willing to become Chen He because he has received the love of his senior brother? Because he can no longer deny that at this moment, he is like that moment. [Li Yan quickly returned his grip, and there was an indescribable hidden fire in his deep eyes. Like a thirsty person who finally sees an oasis, or like a person who is too poor to eat and suddenly finds an ancestral jade in a dilapidated home. That's right, that's right! ! ! Very good at describing... It's hard to tell that the article is twelve years old! ! Also, the first time Li Yan and his senior brother did it was [spirits and souls blended together in the clouds and rain in Wushan, and he suddenly forgot everything. Li Yan even had a vague illusion that Shi Feng had never left. After they met in the Chifeng Desert, they became senior brothers, and to this day... When you wake up from a dream, you know it is just a dream after all. Except for Shi Feng, he still had nothing. Silently looking at the person who was in trance, he vaguely traced the outline with his hand, as if the eyebrows, eyes, and corners of his lips became alive under his fingers. I'm afraid it's just a dream. But [——This is reality, not an illusion of inner demons. I didn't mean that Li Yan had no self-esteem, but Chen He had a kind of self-confidence. He felt that his own value did not have to be achieved by crushing others. To put it simply, he is the kind of person who is more reasonable. Because he has been around since he was a child, adults are trying to reason with him, making him believe that there is a certain amount of truth in the world. And Li Yan has always seen sanctimonious people. From his relatives when he was a child, to Yuanlou when he grew up, and then to the Fusion Sect, he has never lived with anyone in the Black Abyss Valley. That is, although the Adelists would say that the past does not necessarily determine the future, it still has some influence. Of course, they are all very self-consistent people, and everything has become their skeleton. But what is the composition of bones? How about the color. Although they are all calcified, they are still different. @ Jade ball The protagonist left the Black Abyss Valley in the first few pictures and came back only once in 275 pictures. All the memories of this green jade ball didn't come back until my senior brother ascended. But for Chen He, it has always been that the present time with his senior brother is the most important. It is best if he has the memories of the past, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't. Moreover, this touching scene is also written very, very well. The picture is of the past, and the viewer is the grown-up Chen He, with a feeling of loss. That's it What the readers (together with Chen He) see is the complete happiness that they once had without knowing it. At that time, the senior brother was by his side, and he could reach out and pick him up. At that time, his biggest worry was "There are two over there, and my senior brother can't beat them." At that time, he firmly believed that everything would be better "when I grow up." But now, he has really grown up and has the ability to "teach them a lesson for his senior brothers", but the person he wants to protect, show off, and show how powerful he is is no longer in this yard. "He is in the Black Abyss Valley where he has lived with his senior brother for more than ten years. However, Shi Feng will never return here again." Oh my God, my God! ! ! @ The green jade ball of past and present lives/ten thousand years mirage bead This mirage ball is quite powerful. It has many shortcomings but is also very good. It is much better than the beryl ball. The requirements for cultivation are very high and you can't go to the South China Sea, but there are indeed many benefits. However, this article is handled in such a way that all the golden fingers of the protagonist are pitted, just, very balanced. Li Yan also had a mirage bead, but Chen He had a ten thousand year mirage bead from the beginning because of the Brotherhood, and Li Yan didn't have such a person around him. Moreover, only Chen He had the green jade ball refined by his elders. So delicious. If Li Yan was like this in his previous life, he might open it first. But Chen He in this life [He was stunned for a long time, and then as if he remembered something, he moved the big box out from under the bed. He didn't come back to see memories. He "was in a daze for a long time, and then he went to look through the box as if he remembered something." He's not in a hurry. Because the present moment between him and his senior brother [even if his senior brother has ascended] is more important than those memories. This is not to look down on the past, this is the calmness that only those who live in the present can have. He knew that the past would not run away, so he was in no hurry to go back. He knows that his senior brother is here, so he is not afraid of forgetting. Moreover, the description of Beauty 1 is always magnificent. Chen Xiaohe has such a controlled appearance to the end and has such a sense of golden words. It is really awesome! ! ! [Too many to list one by one] Whether it's a sense of regret or that sense of beauty. Support the United States 1. I edited a lot of them and deleted them. I was really worried about being regarded as a dream girl. But in fact, the reason readers of this article like senior brother so much is because Chen He likes senior brother! @About a little bit of throwing settings Some people say that a good beginning is the end. You don't want the protagonist to appear in a state of "getting ready to go to the battlefield", but let him appear in a state of "reading a thousand sails and traveling in dust". But I also feel that if the ending is too strong, it will fall into an invincible flow. Or trivializing all the suffering the protagonist has suffered before. But this article is about the senior brother appearing in the middle of reading Qianfan, but it is still very interesting. @About Li Yan's memory Chen He made some reasonable inferences from some reactions before he got it In fact, I really think that when the time comes, I will start to discuss who has a stronger desire for each other? I believe everyone has their own opinions, and what I'm saying is just my understanding: I think the senior brother's desire for the junior brother is much stronger than the junior brother's desire for the senior brother. At first, the junior brother's desire was just to see other aspects of the senior brother. He cared more about the senior brother's expression for this than the specific pleasure and feelings. Later, it was out of Li Yan's subtle possessive desire. Li Yan couldn't get it in his life, but I can touch it easily. A very subtle kind of complacency and self-esteem. Although the senior brother has always been indifferent, he was actually the one who had the desire first, and it was also him many times after that. It's just that senior brother's moral bottom line is too high, so as long as Chen He wants it, he will have it, and Chen He won't mention it if he doesn't want it. The senior brother just looked at the erotic pictures with his junior brother indifferently (although I also suspect that this sentence was just made up by Chen He, but it really is not surprising), just like, Chapter 312: The senior brother calmly let people kill people. He would not kill someone to expose Chen He's identity. It's just that I accidentally didn't hold it down (the alchemist said that Madman Chi let his senior brother successfully deduce it)! But Chen He is the same, he has a limited appearance, but it's nice to be able to get what he wants. Only control one person's appearance. I can't stand you two 99 In fact, I really feel that the senior brother is much more in love in the early stage (superposition is only in the early stage, in the senior brother's perspective), or in the perspective of the senior brother before Chapter 160 (in Chapter 166, the senior brother clearly said to me, I know that you liked me in the previous life, but in Chapter 160, I feel that the senior brother has completely guessed it), Chen He does not love each other as much as he does. But he still loves his junior brother. Just, as long as the junior brother also loves me, the rest is actually not that important. After looking back several times, I feel that the senior brother was worried too much at that time, worried that he would fall in love with his junior brother, and worried that his junior brother would not love him. After discovering that his junior brother likes me, he wonders if he doesn't love her that much, if he admits his mistake, if he will become cold and disgusted with her in the future, and then he will be completely helpless. But the junior brother expressed his liking, so... Well, they got together. (Junior brother asked for it and gave it to him) (crossed out) (heavy fog) For senior brother, as long as he doesn't hate himself, that's fine. As long as my junior brother can be with me and get close to me, it's fine, whether I do it or not, whatever happens is fine. He just hopes that his junior brother will like him and love him. There is no need to question how much I love him. The repo is that the senior brother said to his junior brother, "It's not because you are fragile and need protection, it's not because you are pitiful and deserve sympathy." Just because I like it, I am often afraid that you will suffer losses, worried that you will suffer, and suspect that you are not smart (either intellectually unsmart or worried about being deceived or confused) but will not take the initiative. At the same time, Chen He is the one who does things when he should do things, and intimidates when he should intimidate. Even if he kills people and sets fires, it will not affect his ability to strategize and act cute in front of his senior brothers... He just controls it very well. @God, the world is turned upside down, and they are slightly happy. Mainly, I believe that if you love to a certain extent, you will definitely hope that others will avoid detours, you will definitely hope that the other person can be happy, not to be hurt by anything, and hope that the other person will be like this... This further step is to shape - desire -. And there is another urge for complete destruction, this step back is destruction - desire -. But Ye Feng is able to write such love so lightly. Although I completely believed in Ye Feng's level from the beginning, I still choked up after reading this. At this time, I have to mention Li Yan again. I personally think that a touch of happiness is [You must first believe that even if you are not shaped or destroyed, you are worthy of being loved. You must first experience (even if only in your imagination) the acceptance that "I don't have to change anything, you are here." This certainly creates a desire for destruction (rather than be abandoned, I'd rather destroy everything first). It seemed like this was the case when Li Yan appeared, but being able to be cured by his senior brother was a kind of acceptance. Possession-desire-and shaping-desire-are like small heads and big heads. But I can hardly see it in the senior brother, but in fact the senior brother's emotional character is indeed very strong. A kind of hands-off, a kind of "even so, still." @Worldviewshaping Often fantasy works must be logically self-consistent if they add a lot of new things into a default framework, and they must be written in detail and detail, with a main plot, but the author has undoubtedly done it all. At the beginning of this article, it seems to be an ordinary world of immortal cultivation. Later, it has such a detailed world view, which I think is also very powerful. Often when writing some professional content, readers feel that the author looks very professional, and may even make readers feel more professional than writing by someone who has been in the industry for many years. Making other readers feel that the author is very, very professional... This is an ability. This is professionalism. Readers can't come over and ask you to do it yourself, and readers can't do it themselves. So it's more important to appear professional than to actually be professional. It is more important to be easy to understand. Even this article is like this. Although it is about cultivating immortality, it is completely different from reality, which means that a lot of details need to be filled in. The author tells a very profound story completely self-consistently, and the author writes very confidently. Everyone really thinks within that worldview. Each character is very three-dimensional. Even when the protagonist is not mentioned, they are developing their own stories normally. It is not like many entertainment works where everything remains the same if the protagonist does not appear, and everything changes within a few days after the protagonist appears. There are many characters that I think my understanding is not as good as everyone in the comment area, so I have deleted them. Thank you very much Ye Feng for bringing such a magnificent story to readers, I believe they will definitely be in that world99.
I really like this article. It is top 1 in my heart for cultivation, top 1 every year, and even more top 1 among my brothers. After reading the article and reading the comments, sometimes I feel like I have followed it from beginning to end all over again after reading everyone's comments. I am happy. I feel like I really like this article. I like both the protagonist and the supporting characters. Needless to say, the plot of Night Breeze is as reliable as insurance. The emotional line of this book is absolutely 100% my favorite. Totally. If there is a paper book, I might read it more often... I can't read enough. If a book is published, there will usually be a few bonus extras. What a pity.
Xiaotun: I eat crabs, chew crabs, bite crabs, click, click, click, click...
Why is it over? It feels like there are still 800 episodes left.
I will always love this novel...
I didn't like Yang Lianhua the first time before, but now I like it more and more the more I watch it.
It's actually over? Haven't laughed enough yet
Well, there is a big hole in the main body of the mountain on the east side. Could this hole be the same hole that Luobo master came out of after hundreds of years of cultivation? !
Beautiful writing really never goes out of style!
The meaning is still not finished, the brothers and masters are free and happy, and they have long-term vision of eternal life. This is the most perfect thing.
