There was no definite answer to this question because most urban novels were written as fantasy in the later stages, depending on the specific plot and the author's creative intentions. However, there are some possible reasons why some urban novels might turn into fantasy in the later stages: Increase the sense of mystery and fantasy: urban novels often focus on describing the protagonist's life and story, and gradually sublimate into a fantasy style can better highlight the mystery and fantasy of the protagonist in the story, allowing readers to be more involved in the development of the story. 2. To expand the world view of the story: urban novels usually take place in modern cities while fantasy novels usually take place in fictional worlds. By expanding the world view, urban novels can be more colorful and add more suspense and mystery to the story. Increase the complexity and contradiction of the plot: urban novels tend to focus on the compact and contradictory plot, while fantasy novels can better highlight the complexity and contradiction of the plot and let the readers be more involved in the development of the plot. It should be noted that the fantasy style was not the inevitable ending of all urban novels, and not all urban novels would turn into a fantasy style. Different authors and storylines had different writing styles and purposes, so they could not be treated the same way.
