This is my take for this ultimate-once-in-a-lifetime-destiny.
It ended so fast. Fifty-six episodes yet it is not enough to portray all necessary conclusion at the end. It has all important recipe in a drama to have so much impact in an entertainment world however some of the episodes where drag and some are ended so fast.
The mortal realm life is enough for someone to drop the series because they gave importance to a side-character that at the end they didn't used very well (yes, that's you QingTi, sorry brother). Despite having a good chemistry of both ML and FL, the story stretched as far as they can just to established that DongHua is vulnerable once he's mortal. Yes. It's important however some of the clip can be emitted and it still will be that good.
The reunion after mortal life is also a good foundation for their relationship and IMO is a good transition from draggy episodes. I could not ask for more.
The Dream of Aranya is also one of the best plot in the story and it is the beginning of their unfated love story. THIS part is climactic yet something is also missing. Maybe because the story itself is complicated enough in the book. This is where DongHua realise that he can love after millions of years. It so sweet once he accepted his fated love and its almost sweeter when FengJui reciprocated his feelings.
The great war, this is for me is the downfall of the story. DON'T GET ME WRONG, I love this part that it saddens me to say that this could have been better (I think the writers had memo that the drama will be shorten or that they lack sleep because why they do this to us?). This is where all sacrifices, redemption, fate and trust plays and is crucial to have a mind-blowing impact because it will sealed the fate of the story of DongHua and FengJui. But in the end its a HEA!! But as I said, it could have been better. (I JUST WANT A REAL WEDDING FOR DONGHUA AND FENGJUI!!!)
