Eerie Immortal Cultivation: I Became the Yellow-Clad Taoist Master Jade Skies Above the Severed Arm 1069 words 2026-04-13 11:43:41

The book "Yellow Skin" has seen an update of 220,000 words this November. With just a few days left, it should reach around 280,000 words. It’s neither too much nor too little. A couple of days ago, I even managed to update two chapters daily. The author has been feeling unwell—unsure whether it’s the flu or something else—and has been coughing persistently, as if there’s a fire burning in the lungs. It might have developed into bronchitis or pneumonia. Naturally, the writing quality has fluctuated.

Today, I went back and noticed quite a number of typos. Since this chapter became VIP-only on Qidian, it won’t allow edits after a few days. I asked the editor for permission and will be going back soon to correct those typos and some awkward phrasing. Sometimes, when the author’s not feeling well, the writing can become somewhat incoherent.

As for updates, I’m currently on medication, actively treating my hand issue, which has slightly improved—at least I no longer wake up from hand pain in the mornings. Perhaps I can try updating 12,000 words daily in the future, but only if the quality remains steady.

This is my first time writing a xianxia novel, so I want to do it well. I’ve noticed some readers are confused about the main storyline, wondering what exactly drives Chen Huangpi—whether it’s cultivating to become an immortal or acquiring certain resources for cultivation. To clarify, I do have a clear outline and a big-picture plot in mind. In broad strokes, the story’s main thread revolves around a world undergoing strange changes. The master endures these challenges, providing shelter and protection for Huangpi. The tale is about their relationship as master and disciple.

Interestingly, I’ve devoted more writing to the master’s character than to Huangpi himself. The master deeply cares for Huangpi and shields him from harm. The cultivation methods given to Huangpi are automatic. Whatever Huangpi wants to do, the master supports him—after all, he’s just a kid who should have fun and enjoy life. Of course, that’s one aspect, but ultimately the plot is the author’s responsibility. Rest assured, I have a clear plan in mind.

There’s no habit of leaving plot holes unaddressed. I used to enjoy planting mysteries that lasted until the grand finale, but now, I tend to resolve storylines shortly after introducing them. I don’t leave a suspense hanging for hundreds of thousands of words—living in the moment, so to speak. Other than that, there’s nothing more to add. I believe the storylines of the Burial God’s Tomb and the Underworld are handled reasonably well. But I know readers are especially eager to see Chen Huangpi’s antics and the interactions between him and his master.

Lastly, with the rapidly changing weather, please remember to keep warm when going out and wear masks—especially those commuting by subway. Don’t find masks troublesome; take care of your health and protect yourself.
