Great production Drama!

This drama is definitely one of those that I watched because of the production team and casts. The first time I saw the trailers for this drama, I felt some type pf excitement because it's similar to Ten Miles of Peach Blossom (one of my favorite) and was also produced by the same team. This drama was highly produced in all aspects. The costumes, CGI's, and casts.
I really like the two main leads, Ni Ni and Chang Chen are some of my favorite actress and actor. Their characters Ling Xi and Jiu Chen's story is definitely an emotional one. The romance wasn't so long for it to happen, but the time of Ling Xi being a mortal was a little bit too long for me. I wanted to see her be a goddess longer than her mortal self. Other than that, Jiu Chen is a cold but romantic man, he truly love Ling Xi and is willing to do anything for her survival.
The plot was good but there should've been more to it. However, it didn't disappoint me because of the great cast and their acting connecting to their characters. It has similar setting and creatures like TMOPB. It has great chemistry between the lead, powerful male lead, and strong female lead. But then again, not a big fan of the mortal arch, I felt like it was dragged for too long when it could've ended a little early. Regardless, the ending was very good since our main leads found happiness together. I also really like the side couples such as Qing Yao and Yun Feng. Their love story began a little bit bitter but they found their way around and I think that's a great way to depict a different type pf romance.
The costumes of this drama is just phenomenal. Ling Xi's outfits really depict the presentation of a young goddess and Jiu Chen's outfits is mature but fit for a God of War. The outfits for the Shanling tribe is also dark but beautiful, it doesn't look totally evil since the Queen wasn't an evil one. The hairstyles were simple but with a little of bling to it, which doesn't look overbearing or too much. The CGI's looks pretty good to me, it's definitely at the level of a high production drama, which is very expected from me.
Now the OST's is probably what make this drama so emotional. At every scene of love or lost, we get a song that goes well with the scenes. Definitely one of my favorite thing in this drama.
Onto one of the very popular conversations between the people who watched this drama, the male lead is definitely an older one and some people don't find him handsome or attractive. However, I believe that people overlooked the fact that the role of the God of War is someone who is over many thousands of years old. He is a man who went through many calamities. He isn't someone who is young and inexperienced like Ling Xi. To me Chang Chen is a very attractive man and great actor, he plays the role of the God of War really well. You'll just have to continue watching to see his potential and values as an actor playing this role.
Overall, I really like this drama and many things about it. It has great romance and the casts is amazing. I really recommend it to those who like TMOPB or Love and Redemption.
