A beautiful world created in Xianxia
I don't really write reviews, but for some reason I felt compelled to give this one a review.
To be honest, I just loved this drama because of the powerful and charismatic ML, leads have great chemistry, the production is so beautiful and the story is not the same old Heavenly Realm stories. (I have no idea why only they are called Immortals while both realms are immortal. Even to some extent both have deities, but I don't know if dramas acknowledge this fact.) Really if you look at most traditional mythologies, different cultures and tribes would consider what are called today the 'demons' or' anti-gods' as their deities while other groups consider the ones called today 'gods' as deities. This is many times the case when it comes to the same mythology with the same beings being told by different groups with the heroes and villains different according to the culture.
LBFD actually has a powerful being from the opposing realm, actually the most powerful of the three realms. Even in the end, he still was the only being who harnessed great power the other beings hadn't seen in their lifetimes or eras. And not only did LBFD show the Moon Realm in a fair light, they also write into the story a rivalry that doesn't blame the Moon Tribe. Moon Tribe did what they had to do, and while they harbored hate, it was due to their circumstances of having to defend and protect themselves.
It's not perfect, there are some flaws but nothing that is unwatchably annoying or cannot be overlooked
*I didn't really care about Jie Lie or her romance, but it's not something I can't look past or really felt the need to FF through.
*The general use of 30,000 years without really specifying how long DQC was Moon King before being imprisoned.
*Few scenes dragged towards the end in the sandstorm battle
*When they first get back to Moon Realm there was some stupidity amongst the characters. But it was also understandable that at that point, Orchid wouldn't care about the chaos Moon Realm could fall into and their defeat, but rather worried about the protection of her fairy realm and those she knows--even at the cost of her life.
*Jie Lie, like I said, is a character that is ehhh. Don't even know how she was just allowed to run around doing stupid things, but whatever... some characters are needed for plot.
Unlike others I don't mind the quick ending. Because really the story is finished there. It's okay for the audience to assume the rest, which were already told by the other characters would happen once the ending occurred.
