I hope more people can appreciate this drama. I read this novel last year and has never gotten over it. I am not a hardcore fan of any actors.. I just truly love this novel, and seeing the lines and novel scenes I found touching coming alive is so exciting!! Past three months was anxiously waiting for the drama release. After all twist and turns, I hope it gets the attention and popularity it truly deserves.
Why the rating is like this. This is such a great drama.. and the comment section is full of praise. I don't know about others; for me its a 10 in Xiania; with truly unique plot and character setting, perfect acting, visual, makeup. There are only a few Xiania as good as this.. so how can it be only 8.1!!!!
Novel readers please tell me that ML will kill all those hypocrite leaders ?
In the novel, the ML exploded the whole gencheng immortal mansion and burned down everything. He is very rational and scheming in his planning despite appearing like a madman. There are reasons for letting them live a little longer now.
I guess the hero favourite word must be 'kill' then. Also any person who has read the novel please spoil me a…
Well, as you can see our LYT is from the modern world and got transmigrated. The original body she transmigrated into is a demon spy placed in gencheng immortal mansion to pass the selection and kill Sima Jiao. The heir of the Yuan Palace, Yuan Sheng colluded with the demons to destroy the sect and LYT was controlled by the bone eroding poison through him with the bell. LYT doesn't know that this body had another identity as a demon spy so when she receives a letter to meet she thinks Yan Heng is the original body's lover. Later, Sima Jiao will solve this threat pretty neatly.
About the Shi Clan....let's start from Sima people. Sima were the people that were an existence closest to the god. Its like they are a superior species compared to other cultivators. Their whole body is like a natural spiritual treasure so they can cultivate faster and nurture the spiritual fire. Except for Simas no one ascended for a long time. People used to think many people from the Sima Clan ascended to God but later when the cruel truth about ascension was known to a few people that there is no nine heavens, upper relam or anything; after ascension the body and spiritual energy will scatter and nourish this world, in a word ascension means death.
By the time this truth was realized there were only a few Sima people left, the sect has grown big enough to be country so the servant of Sima Clan, which is the Shi family and other palace masters knowing that there is no one from the Sima who truly became a god in a word Sima people had no backers and there is no true ascension; their goal became to only cultivate below the ascension level and achieve immortality. Since Sima clan had few people and too big a territory, the servants became the master and on the one hand , they imprisoned the Sima Clan people left, have them keep nurturing the spiritual fire. On the other hand; when Sima people died by accident or killed by them the Shi famliy and 8 palace people would divide their flesh and blood to accelerate their cultivation. After all, not everyone is like Sima people with talent to cultivate. That's how the powerful sect full of talented cultivators came about. Also, to keep up the Sima flesh and blood supply and continue nurturing the spiritual fire they forced the few Sima people to inbreed in a word incest to maintain the purity of the bloodline. Later, only Sima Jiao's parents were left and they were direct blood related siblings; brother and sister forced to get married and bear children which was toned down in the drama as being from different lineage like cousins.
Later Sima Jiao's father Sima Shi was known by the public to go crazy and died; while he was actually alive in a secret place set up by the Shi family to grow a new spiritual fire with his heart blood. The Shi family also set up a human farm with impure Sima bloodline, they collected children from distant linage of Sima Clan who were born with someone outside the Sima Clan; kept them as mortals in a place and keep them breeding.. later flesh and blood will be given to the Shi family to consume for cultivation and blood will also be supplied to where Sima E was locked up to help in growing the new spiritual fire, after all only Sima E is not enough and he will die if he alone keeps supplying blood.
The reason the Shi clan can still maintain a polite facade with Sima Jiao is because when Sima Shi was supposedly dead, the other 8 palace master forced Sima E, Sima Jiao's mother to wait for Sima Jiao to grow up and have a child with him because Sima Shi died before they could give birth to another child, a girl. This totally broke Sima E, in desperation she tried kill her own son, Sima Jiao who was then saved by Shi family previous master. Later, Sima E used her own body and blood to refine the spiritual fire and sent it inside Sima Jiao's body so that he could have a chance grow and protect himself. That's why the current stalemate situation of Sima Jiao with the shi family and 8 palaces. And that's why they sent women to see if they could have a child with Sima blood to replace Sima Jiao.
All three lifetime have plenty of their scenes. Actually, in the novel the whole plot is about the romance between…
He completed his revenge almost; all eight palaces that used Sima blood flesh died only a few Shi clan member could ran away, its just that at the end of the first arc when he planned an explosion to blast the whole gencheng immortal mansion, the Shi family took LYT there to threaten Sima Jiao. LYT was placed in a safe place before Sima Jiao started the explosion but the Shi family somehow found LYT and brought her there. So, LYT got involved in the explosion which shocked Sima Jiao and he started grabbing the dead souls there to find LYT soul but couldn't find her and got distracted so a few Shi clan members could flee from there, they also quitely took LYT away to tamper with her memory so that they could use her to make a comeback and kill Sima Jiao. Then the 2nd Arc starts where Sima Jiao conquers demon relam to find LYT and also hunt down the last Shi Clan members. After LYT and Sima Jiao reunites in the 2nd arc and the last shi family member is killed; his revenge was finally complete.
2nd FL Hongluo was never a villain. In the novel, when LYT was without Sima Jiao surviving in the cruel demon world she became friends with Hongluo the kind life-death friendship. Later Hongluo was killed and while getting revenge for hongluo, LYT meets the snake and the snake brought her to Sima Jiao. LYT later even asked Sima Jiao to help reincarnate Hongluo.
Novel readers, which of their lifetime arc will contain more of the story pls? Also do the characters from this…
All three lifetime have plenty of their scenes. Actually, in the novel the whole plot is about the romance between the two.. other things are just the minimum background. The drama extended the background plot settings more to make the plot suitable for drama adaptations. If you read the novel, you will see almost everything is about the two of them.. very small fillers.
In the novel, Some characters from gencheng immortal mansion appeared in the demon world arc..as Sima Jiao's revenge truly ended in the 2nd arc. Also, Hongluo or Yu Ruling drama character belonged to the 2nd arc in the first place and drama extended her story to the immortal world so both Hongluo and snake will be present throughout the three arcs.
No matter what version it is, be it novel, manhwa, drama.. because the story itself and lead characters are set well, it deserves to be shared. I love every version of it 💞💞💞 . Hope an anime version will come too in the future.
LYT: Old house can catch fire, you know? Sima Jiao: Mortal Romance is beneath me Sima Jiao in the near future: "..............." (slap himself in the face 🤣🤣🤣)
Often you get the FL stepping into the middle of a fight or getting hurt because of acting all self-righteous.…
I also appreciate this FL character very much. She is realistic. She isn't self-righteous and doesn't meddle in things and not those nosy types who thinks they are smart and everything and then get themselves into trouble by acting beyond one's bounds only to end up playing damsel in distress again again..
She also never judged any of the ML's action in the whole novel or asked him to do things her way....She expresses opinion only when it involves herself.... despite her salted fish nature her thinking was very mature.. she thinks other's grudge or hatred or revenge has nothing to do with her so she is in no position to interfere in it.
Of course it doesn't mean she is inactive. She will do what she needs to do when necessary and she will have a growth period too. From thinking herself as an outsider in this world to slowly becoming a part of this fantasy world.
The best thing about this story to me isn't the plot but the ML and FL personality and character and their interactions.
