The classical fantasy novel "The Great Dao" has been uploaded, book number: . The content portrays a solitary cloud and a wild crane, leading a leisurely life in the world of clear winds and bright moon. Mountains and rivers gather clouds, while the four seas shine with radiant splendor. Admirably, the grand achievements of creation shape the vast emptiness. How much knowledge lies within the immortal realm, revealed by the glow of the moon in the shadow of the toad? In essence, I hope to write a classical fantasy novel that captures the authentic spirit, which can be seen as addressing the regrets of "Root of Dust". I dare not claim substantial progress in this book, but it is indeed the work that required the most effort before writing. The upgrade of classical fantasy is always inevitable, and this was the aspect I deliberated on the most before starting "The Great Dao". However, beyond the setting and structure, my main goal was to incorporate the upgrade within the story itself. In short, this new book aims to tell a classical fantasy story with a rational structure and clear levels, which first and foremost captivates my own interest. The setting and structure used in the book are inspired by native Taoism, and the story possesses an Eastern and classical essence of the fantasy genre. Readers who are interested can take a look! Thank you!
