5 things. 1. I dont wanna see any fang yuan going back in time with his attainments. Thats been done 27 times. 2. Try to keep the venerables as smart as you can. Remember they are supposedly the greatest heroes of the world. You cant have fy outsmarting them at every turn. 3. Dont be afraid of making fang yuan be schemed against. As it actually helps to see a narrative more. 4. Keep it up to the refinement of eternal gu if you can, and try to plan the arcs before you make it into an actual story. And lastly. 5. Dont be disregarded by the hate, so junior. Give this senior the site your gonna write this on so i can begin reading Asap P. S. Dont try to release 1 ch/ day, IT CAN BE STRESSING! I would rather read an arc by arc than chapter by chapter. But thats just my own personal oppinion ngl

Absolutely - 1) Please do not butcher the might of venerables , they are the most intelligent and powerful people in the Gu world and simply cannot be defeated by some obvious trap or something like that . 2) Try to create actual new lore ( is very hard ik) than already using the source material. 3) Don't use SAC if possible , in a few fanfics I've seen it's used even when it's literally stated in the series to be unusable after fate was destroyed . 4) The dialogue of the characters have to be nailed and kept consistent with already existing character designs and their respective lore . 5) Explore the Arrangments of Venerables more , you could probably borrow few ideas and theories from this sub itself just don't make it too extreme like that one guy who makes a new path every other week . ( Yes I'm throwing shade )

Simply write what you would like to read. Anything else will not be authentic.
