Superb!

This drama is superb. The drama appeared on my recommended list on YouTube and of course I jumped on it immediately. With Luo Yun Xi (Leo) and Bai Lu as lead actors, it is a must watch for me. I have been looking out for Immortality, a Leo's drama, for ages - completed production but is not released and so this one is a compensation - actually an excellent compensation.

The style feels a little like Ashes of Love and Ten Mile Peach Blossom. If you enjoy either of these two dramas, you are likely to enjoy this drama. There are be some comments about plagiarism by a YouTube reviewer. The romance of the two leads spans three lives and in the dream, there is a God of War and a jealous third party, just like in Ten Mile Peach Blossom. There is this crossing of the river of the nether world - just like Ashes of Love. In an episode, when the dream is going on, for a moment I thought it resembles Ten Mile, but the story develops very differently and is very intriguing. And it certainly beats Ashes of Love, in my opinion.

Leo's and BaiLu's onscreen chemistry is excellent. The alternation of love and hatred was so well portrayed, with lots of fighting as well as kissing scenes. With Leo's excellent acting as a 'tortured' person who then rises to great heights, you see his superb acting skills displayed in this drama. He is a master of facial expressions - evil smile, sadness, forlorn, 'I-am-in-charge', happy, gentle and loving - he does them all befittingly. Alongside with him, Bai Lu is just as outstanding.

Of course, the costumes were fabulous, especially for Leo's, regardless of as the king, God of War, or the demon king, he is very regal. He is quite thin but still manage to look very majestic. Then there are all those graceful manoeuvres in his fighting scenes - he certainly put to play his ballet dancing skills very well.

And this drama has one of the best soundtrack. I have not come across a drama with so many lovely music pieces and so I say this is the top drama for music.

Additionally, do I need to add a very good looking cast with outstanding acting skills - China really has a big pool of acting talents.

I see mentions of a Part II and hope that Part II won't be like the Part II of Royal Nirvana - a completely dark turn of the drama, or like Joy of Life or Princess Agent where the sequel never see the light of day. These are going to spoil the mood completely.

I give this drama a all-round thumbs up.
