It took me a while to get into this drama. The first 10 episodes were really dull and I don't blame the actors/actresses, but I do blame the storyline. The story did pick up after episode 10. Cheng Xiao (Lu Qing Qing) is the type of actress that needs to grow on me because my first impression was okay but not someone I can truly praise right now. I would have to see more acting from her since this is just my 2nd time viewing her. She really does well in dancing and singing. I did love the main lead actor Jason Gu (Nangong Yi Xin) but this was my first time seeing him play a serious role. I loved all of the martial art and the fantasy was great. The costumes of the Empress were all beautiful, never seen that design before and I applaud whoever is the designer. Thank you to all the actors/actresses who did very well.

Another storyline with a confusing ending, it sounds like there will be a part 2 to this story. Yang Mi is one of my top Chinese actresses and of course, she did what she is known for and that is an excellent actress. (I still love her in Historical drama) This is the 3rd drama that I have viewed Bai Yu in a drama. I need to see more of him. I loved him in the "Guardian". This is one of many dramas with Doctors/Nurses/hospitals that handle various medical crises. I really won't look at these types of dramas but I did was because, again, Yang Mi was in this.

Shawn and Tang played their characters very well. I loved the storyline where a person can be in an accident no matter if it's in the air or the ground. None of us know what happens when you become comatose or need induced coma. Science states Patients in a coma appear unconscious. They do not respond to touch, sound or pain, and cannot be awakened. Their brains often show no signs of the normal sleep-wakefulness cycle, which means they are unlikely to be dreaming. ... Whether they dream or not probably depends on the cause of the coma. But then yet you have others say they had a series of dreams while being a coma.

The only reason why I rated this an 8 is because of the music. I won't say which songs were off-key. There were two songs that the vocalist was off-key and made the song off! The storyline was great! The cast did an awesome job. Thanking the writers and everyone else who did their part.

I really loved this drama. The visuals and fantasy were all great. The storyline was awesome except for that last episode, I mean it was good don’t get me wrong but the ending ended like there was going to be a good ending but then in the last 10 seconds of the episode it didn’t seem like an ending. It just left you hanging. I went on the web and found there were supposed to be extra episodes 41 and 42 but that never happened so I was upset. I’m not trying for anyone to stop watching this drama it is excellent and I was satisfied all the way until the last 10 seconds. You will have to watch it to understand what I mean but please don’t skip all the episodes to watch the last 10 seconds or you will miss an excellent drama.

Chen Xing Xu was so darn good as the Empyrean Xuan Shang, I don’t know how else to describe him. I love this actor. I almost didn’t recognize who he was until the 2nd episode. To change into 3 different types of personalities and play his original character of a total of 4 personalities was crazy excellent. I fell in love with the Fire character. Lol. Landy Li (Li Guang Ye Tan), her playing this role, and I want to see more of her. This is my second time watching her and really didn’t get her in the first drama. The way she played her character was really good. A lot of emotions I felt. Luke Chen (Chao Feng) and He Xuan Lin (Li Guang Qing Kui), these two, wow, were great, Luke Chen is very handsome and He Xuan Lin she played that very nice and mannered character, she was lovely.

The visuals, fantasy, costumes, graphics, animations, and music are excellent. I thank all the actors and actresses who also played great, I applaud them. Thanking all of the team that made this drama a success for me.

I am so angered!

Why are the writers in China destroy a story in the last episode? OMG! I mean c'mon writers get it together. I watched 40 episodes to not see what I wanted to see. At least you didn't kill them off. But seriously, this is not the first time you all ruined it for me. I will still rate it at a 10 because of Ren Jia Lun and Li Qin. Ren Jia Lun who played Lu Yan and Li Qin who played Yu Deng Deng absolutely played their parts with perfection! I loved the fantasy, the martial art, and the visuals all were done awesomely. Thank you to the team and I hope enough of us complain about giving the fans a great ending. This ludicrous. We are already so many bad things out in the real world, we need to see something positive.

THIS WAS SO GOOD!

FIRST OF ALL, I love Rain! Everything he does or touches is a 10. Kim Bum is so cute in this drama even when his role called for him to be upset. He did an awesome job being a host! The storyline may be boring to others but it kept me focused that I needed to see the next episodes. I believe that I have a ghost in my living quarters. We do NOT know or understand what happens during the death process. I'm not in a hurry to find that out either. All I know is this was a really good drama and I will be rewatching it.

I love a good romance story and this is one. The storyline was perfect without any competition between men and women in this drama that would end up killing each other. Let me talk about Timmy Xu, who may not be so popular back when he started out acting... People and their homophobic ideals, and not talking about Timmy Xu... I'm talking about those who surround this actor. What a beautiful and handsome actor he is. He deserves this 10! The way he does Martial Art was very good. I loved the character he played in this drama. His acting was very believable and those eyes are penetrating. I applaud him! Gülnezer Bextiyar was perfect to be the main actress that plays Liuli... she was great. I loved how her character persisted to avenge her mom's death and it showed how good GB is in her acting skills. The visuals on everything in this drama were beautiful to see. I loved the costumes, the embroidery all of it! The storyline was perfect! Thank you to the team of writers, directors, and all the actors and actresses. The storyline came alive in front of me and I felt like I was in the movie as a spectator.

I loved the storyline but it had one thing I did not like and that is it kept going back n forth on the storyline. How many times did both main leads become injured all throughout the story? The visuals, the music, and the costumes were all excellent. The martial arts were very good. The ending had me fooled. The actress who played Mo Huan was very believable, made me think she was the real deal. I didn't skip any episodes, watched it all the way through. I will have to watch it again since it aired not too long ago and it was hard keeping up when you have to watch week by week. I think most would like this.

I love this ending.

Bai Lu, my favorite Korean actress, consistently impresses with her ability to embody and breathe life into her characters. Her portrayal in this drama is no exception; she effortlessly makes the role her own, delivering a truly believable performance. The intelligence woven into the storyline took me by surprise, and I find myself compelled to rewatch it, eager to catch any nuances I might have missed initially.

Zhang Ling He, a relatively new actor with four years under his belt, continues to show remarkable improvement with each project. His depiction of a character with two distinct personalities within the same time period is a testament to his talent. The first episode demands focused attention, and his compelling performance truly stood out. His captivating eyes, a personal weakness of mine, added depth to his character, resonating with my emotions throughout the drama.

This journey was an emotional rollercoaster, evoking tears, smiles, and even prompting me to throw my slipper at the TV in moments of heightened engagement. The stellar cast, comprised of many talented actors, contributed significantly to the overall excellence of the drama. Special thanks to each of them for their dedicated efforts. Kudos to the writers for crafting a compelling narrative, and I'm particularly grateful for the inclusion of martial arts in the storyline. The swordplay was a delightful element that added an extra layer of excitement. It was surprising that Zhang Ling's second persona didn't engage in much martial arts, leaving me yearning for more. Nonetheless, the overall experience was truly worth it.

I loved everything about this drama. Dylan Wang and Chen Ju Qi , two of my favorite actor and actress. I will always give them support. I was shocked to see that Dylan Wang was playing an emasculated man serving palace menials, being a spy and harem watchdog Eunuch for the Emperor! OMG! He was good at playing the role of Xiao Duo! My favorite strong actress, CJQ who I love her in action dramas but her action was different in the character Bu Yin Lou. I have no problem with it. Eunuchs wear the same thing in all the dramas I have viewed. But DW looked good! A really good storyline I enjoyed it very much. A lot of suspense, and of course my favorite is the Martial Art action. I'm a fan of sword dancing which is so good. The visual were okay. I loved some of the wardrobe that CJQ wore. I wanted to put myself in this drama and slap the heck out of the emperor and a shoe being thrown at the fake sister of Bu Yin Lou. This drama wouldn't let go to sleep. lol It deserves a 10 when it brings my emotions in it. Thanks to everyone who had part in this drama and the staff.

Oh my goodness, this was so good.

I really enjoyed watching this drama. I mean wow... The storyline is perfect. I will be wondering sometimes if soul switching is real, we a lot of people act strange in public. Lee Jae Wook (Jang Uk), and Jung So Min (Mu Deok) played the two main leads and both were awesome. I loved their characters. Hwang Min Hyun (Seo Yul), the main actor played his heart out and I loved his way of portraying his character. Shin Seung Ho (Go Won), Yoo Joon Sang (Park Jin), and Oh Na Ra (Kim Do Ju) are the three main leads who played some powerful characters who had to lead this that, and the other characters. All the other supporting actors/actresses did just as well. I loved the story, the storyline was crazy and interesting. The costumes, the visuals, the fantasy, all of it was perfect. Thank you!

I loved the storyline and it had me fooled, had me crying. Bai Lu who played Long Ao Yi, I so love this actress and she is in my top favorite actresses. I think I said this before about her, I love her tomboyish acting. She was awesome in this storyline. Leon Lai played Jiu Liu Overlord, He is another actor that I love to see him play... I especially loved him in Legend of Fuyao! I also loved him in Eternal Love and many more. What a great actor he is. Alen Fang who played Li Zhao as always another great actor, this drama has many great actors. Everything is good about this drama.

This is a must-see! I loved the visuals and as always Leon Lai displayed his Martial Arts capabilities, wish I knew if he really is trained in Martial Arts. Every time I see his acting, he shows great Martial Art skills. The visuals were good, costume designs were good.... Thanking all the other than one main actor I did not mention and cast, without them the story wouldn't have worked. The only thing I didn't like was that competition of one woman who is so in love and doing drastic things to snatch that man while he loves another... same story in most of these dramas.

A Rewatch!

I have to give a shout out to those in the main leads, OMG y'all did great keeping the suspense and the momentum going. The Visuals and Fantasy, the animations, and graphics were off the chain. Unbelievable but BELIEVABLE!

Neo Hou who played Wu Xie, I applaud you! You are awesome!

Cheng Yi who played Zhang Qi Ling, I applaud you! I don't know what to say, everything you did, the martial arts was my favorite thing about you as an actor. Your acting is so believable.

Zhang Bo Yu who played Wang Pang Zi, dude I threw my shoe at my tv several times at you, you had me laughing and mad. I applaud you!

Li Man who played A Ning, I wish your acting parts were many in this drama. You shine woman!

I got fooled at the end! Not going to give it away, not unless most of you like to dip to the end before you start, I would not do that if I were you! You will be missing the best parts.

I loved everything about this CDrama. The acting, storyline, visuals, martial art, fantasy all of it. Cheng Yi and Crystal Yuan were perfect for their characters and played them well and they made the story real for me. Those who played in the supporting roles also made the story work. The fantasy parts didn't seem fake and what a great ending. Whoever is the graphic and animation artist did an excellent job. The music score was very dramatic when it needed to be. This Drama I will rewatch. I was intrigued by Cheng Yi and Liu Xu Yi so I will see what other dramas they played in. This is worth the watch.

I was caught off guard with this drama. I don't know how many parallel worlds they were focused on by the writers. I became so confused. I need to watch it again so I can see what the heck who is who. I watched it all, just didn't seem long enough for me. I'm used to watching 16-21 episodes in a Kdrama. The actors and actresses were all great but gave it 8 this time because they tried hard to represent the storyline. The idea of a train going back n forth into the different worlds was unique. I apologize.
