i have a question
when they exited the dream world in around episode 17
the dragon became skeleton
why ?
i have a few possible guesses , hope others can chip in their comments on which is the best explanation
a) Mingye the dragon was satisfied with the final choices by TTJ and YSW , the dragon was released from his final regrets and pain
b) the dragon only have enough energy for 1 last dream cycle , it's coincidence these group of people came at this time
c) dream world or the limbo world post death was overloaded by the greatness of the 2 participants
at least 1 of the 2 gods seem to understand this is a dream or virtual world when they met YSW as sangjiu
did phoenix understood that YSW is her future daughter ?
at ep32 when the umbrella fighter tried to push him to the dark side , I'm a little disappointed he didn't summon the power of mingye since that heaven palace was mingye's home turf
from the preview of ep 33 34 , that umbrella fighter came back to talk him into the dark side ... if i can change the plot , i'll make it that he used TTJ wits and YSW peaceful love to convert the umbrella fighter to find some land and settle down
I believe TTJ mentioned option B, the dragon only has enough energy for 1 more dream.
Among the gods Jize is the most omniscient, and being the God of Time, he definitely knew who Sang Jui really is. But I believe it is a bit different for the phoenix goddess. It is more like a gut feeling because YSW is her future daughter afterall. I rewatched the episode when YSW and Chuhuang met, and Chuchuang said I don't know why, but you seem so familiar to me.
Started ep 33, and LSS is still rejecting Jiumin, but her tone has significantly softened. She even said to herself "I'm sorry TTJ, I can't say yes to you now". Would have been better had she said I can't say yes to you yet.
She also defended Jiumin from her father, so I guess take counts for something.

Updated again after watching the second half of ep 31 and ep 32.
We were treated to several fight scenes with the usual amazing CGI. First prize goes to the Cang Jiumin and Si Ying & Mo-nu fight. I was hoping LSS would help in the fight, but she's not really that strong here and didn't last long. She did help bring back CJM from the brink of becoming a devil.
I liked the way TTJ sort of tricked LSS into revealing she is YSW. His story about Ming Ye and Sang Jiu, picking up apple fruit and finally calling Gongye Jiwu as Xiao Lin.
However, I'm getting really annoyed with her character because she is not being true to herself. She kept on thinking about TTJ when he wasn't there yet rejected him by telling him to forget about the past when CJM discovered that she is really YSW. Honestly I felt like I was watching an annoying kdrama than a cdrama.
So, her real parents are Di Mian and the beautiful phoenix goddess, and she is bound to be a goddess. If she does become a goddess, does this mean Jiumin will become the Devil God again, thus repeating their tragic cycle. I hope this isn't the case because I'll hoping for a happy ending.
Looks like a lot of new problems and complications in the next episodes with the re-appearance of the untrustworthy Di Mian and Bingchang as Mo-nu (seriously I thought I've seen the last of her when she died in the mortal world).

@bluesunny3 @Bojun the direct translation is “dirtless” but the meaning should be better translated as ‘pure’, meaning that LSS’s body or soul is pure and unblemished. This gives us the hint that
she is later discovered to be the only ‘God’ in this current world where all Gods have already perished In the battle 10,000 years ago.
Yes, that’s what I suspected it translates to, due to several chinese cultivation mobile games I’ve played.
BTW the statement you put on spoiler, is that based on the book? -

That's bcs the,let's say, "mortal arc" and "God's arc" were really intense and unusual due to "love you - hate you- hurt you" relationship between the leads. Now we've lost the "hate you-hurt you" part, and are pretty much back to "normal" - for now. Although I'm sure smth totally unexpected is coming and everything will explode again).
Agree 100% with this one.
Likely instigated by the 2 devils who managed to infiltrate Shangqing

I really like this drama.
I appreciate the sites who translate for us…..But sometimes I feel like the translation is a bit off. The site I watch it on , the subtitle described LSS as the “dirtless divine body”?…I just loled…
Anyway, can anyone explain what LSS was saying when she talks about her evil soul? I read the subtitles so many times but I’m still not grasping her explanation.
I agree. The mortal and dream arc was so good…but so far the immortal arc is kinda disappointing. I’ve seen a lot of cdramas that focus on immortals and there’s nothing really new here…almost like “yeah, I’ve seen this before”……im hoping there is something interesting to make it different ! *fingers crossed
I assume you mean the Evil Bone by evil soul?
She exchanged her divine essence with Tantai Jin's evil bone just before dying from the lighting punishment in the mortal realm. I agree that "dirtless" isn't a good word to use. I don't know Mandarin, but would prefer if they had used pure divine body or immaculate divine body. She was saying that her divine body and her divine tool is so far sealing the evil bone but she is fast losing her power. It wouldn't be good to her if her fellow immortals find out the evil bone is inside her body.
This immortal arc just started so I'm positive it will become better later on, especially after LSS and Jiumin see each other.

Had a good laugh during the FL's mahjong session with the gods and also during her revitalization and transfiguration magic scene.

Halfway through ep 31 and this is my POV.
I reckon Pang Yizhi knows about LSS, so he wasn't too helpful when Jiumin asked him about the Soul Gathering Array. Is this because he knows LSS is alive in this timeline and/or the it is demonic cultivation? My earlier post that Pang Yizhi resurrected Xian Lin turned out to be right.
Jiumin and Gongzhi Wuji talking about being friends but at this stage have no idea that they are both referring to LSS. I still fear they would end up fighting again.
The writers are teasing us by delaying the reunion between the two leads, first when Jiumin and his master went to the Hengyang sect, second in the library and lastly by Heaven's Lake. Interestingly the evil bone inside LSS is reacting to the piece of the demonic crossbow inside Jiumin.
I previously said GW or one of the two devils could be the new Devil God, but I guess we could add Di Mian to that list.
I was reading the Wiki page of the drama, and read something I didn't notice before. Not sure if this was shown in the eps 31 and 32, so I will put a spoiler tag.
SpoilerDi Mian is Li Susu's birth father and the beautiful Phoenix Goddess is her mother.
3 hours ago, leo2020 said:The "Luke, I'm your father" scene...just meeee(((. I can't imagine I would be so calm and except such news just like any other if my mother/father casually call me other and introduce me to some guy claiming he is my real dad
. For a start I wonder
Overall, seems like the creators were like "We have only 2 minutes of screen time to introduce this guy back to the story/reintegrate him , so we should hurry up". And one more thing. From the first episode to this point I was convinced Zheng Guo Lin is too young to play his role. Now I know why).
Didn't realise LSS has such distinguished parents, especially on the mother's side, until I accidentally read the wiki.

Finally up to date with the drama after bingewatching eps 25 to 30.
After watching how TTJ reacted after YSW died, I have to agree that his love is on the obssesive side. Yes, still sincere but seriously he is taking the coward's way out in his desire to die with YSW, first by entombing himself in the ice coffin then by trying to burn himself.
Really amazed with the CGI here, and the lightning punishment and exchange of the evil bone and divine essence is my new favorite scene. Glad that YSW finally tells TTJ on why she's been trying to kill him. Once again mistaken assumptions led to disastrous outcome. TTJ thought YSW was trying to poison him so Xiao Lin ended up dead. On a side note finally Ye Bingchang is dead (yay).
TTJ going to the Underworld to find YSW's soul seems cliche, but it was a nice transition to crossover to the immortal sect arc. My biggest question here is where did YSW's soul actually go? 500 years have passed, so basically we're back to when the story started, but with a different timeline. I'm really looking foward to the first time Cang Jiumin and Li Susu see each other in this arc. Both of them still have their memories intact as TTJ/Mingye and YSW/Sangjiu so how would they react.
Is the name Jiumin just a coincidence, or it's actually a combination of SangJiu and Mingye's names? What is Zhaoyou's reason for giving this name to TTJ?
I suspect the masked Jing emperor is YSW's brother. Pian Ran sacrificed her life to save Ye Qingyu so he's likely a spirit now who can live for a long time.
Also did Pang Yizhi ressurect Xian Lin using TTJ heartblood and YBC tears? Will his consiousness recognize Cang Jiumin as TTJ?
I'm happy that the story telling is still quite good 3/4 of the way to the end. The thing that I don't like is Gongzhi Wuji having a love interest with Li Susu. We don't need another love triangle with 10 episodes remaining.
The two devils, Siying and Jingmie, are the obvious main danger in the remaining episodes, and am wondering if Cang Jiumin will still become the Devil God. Personally I think a different person (I'm thinking Gongzhi Wuji or one of the two devils) will be the Devil God or try to be one. My reason is how will Li Susu love TTJ for real if he becomes the Devil God. I predict TTJ will play an important role in defeating whoever the final boss of the drama is and/or save Li Susu from danger.

That was the Yin Yang bracelet that Pang Yizhi gave to TTJ in exchange for his heart blood, and it did break during the lightning punishment.

No surprise with Park Eun Bin and The Glory.
Not too familiar with Baeksang, so what is the difference between Grand Prize and Best Actress?

I am thoroughly enjoying this drama.
I hope YXW and TTJ finally get rid of their mistrust and fall in love.
I think TTJ loves YXW but in an obsessive kind of way, not sincere yet.
YXW has feelings that she cannot sort out yet because her mind is tainted by her mission.
I don't think TTJ's love is obsessive, I consider it sincere because this is his first time feeling love with the formation of his love threads after the dream arc.

I've had a very busy week at work so I'm still very much behind. But did manage to watch eps 19 to 24 and this dramas keeps getting better and better. Below are my character POVs.
Tantai Jin and Ye Xiwu
These two are fun to watch and they are really like cats and dogs with their love-hate relationship. The sweet moments after the dream arc was expected as YXW was trying her best to form the spikes while TTJ was annoying in a funny way as he was being silly with her. Seriously making your wife a palace maid.
Their argument after TTJ killed the emperor and Yingxin was quite intense and they really hurt each other. Really on point acting by Bailu here and I don't know why but having tears from a single eye seem more impactful for me compare to both eyes. Good thing this misunderstanding didn't last long after TTJ read the letters written by YXW and YXW apologizing to TTJ after finding out the real reason why he killed the emperor. The festival was nice with their dance, flying to the fireworks and lantern ladden sky, them running away from the people and their first kiss albeit very brief and lacking emotion (yet) from YXW. Oh and of course Baiyu with his usual "wrong timing".
Ep 24 ended with the moth dying after eating the poisoned sweet porridge. We know it was Bingchang who poisoned it but TTJ will likely think it was YXW. I dread what will happen in the next episode.
Ye Qingyu and Pian Ran
These two are turning out to be one of my favorite second loveteam due to their opposite personalities. YQ is quite stern and taciturn while PR is very frank and happy-go-lucky. But love definitely conquers all as YQ changed because of his love for PR. (i.e. the hot water tub scene). I'm glad that PR got her love threads back and she finally found out what happened to her first love.
Ye Bingchang
Seriously she is defintely up there with the dead emperor in terms of evil cunningness. She didn't give a care when her maid was killed during the fall of Sheng. We found out she was the one who stole Pian Ran's love thread and looks likely she will get Ye Xiwu in BIG trouble because of the poisoned sweet porridge. I hope nothing bad happens to her grandmother. I was rejoicing when TTJ was repeatedly rejecting her advances.
Xiao Lin
He was in a very sorry state when he found out that Ye Bingchang has betrayed him. I don't really have much to comment about his character except that he is very perceptive as he found out that the current Ye Xiwu isn't the real Ye Xiwu. It wasn't his fault that his father wasn't a good emperor so I hope he isn't killed off.
It's going to be a rainy weekend in my part of the world so I will definitely binge watch th remaining episodes.

I'm deliberately not reading the above posts because I'm way behind as Viki is quite slow in uploading episodes. I've watched to ep 20 but saw that Viki is up to ep 22 now.
Anyway I borrowed my wife's Youku and saw they are up to ep 28 there. I've downloaded eps 21 to 28 and will watch as much as I can today after work.
There is a user in Instagram that has been posting short 1 to 4 minute snippets of previous episodes, and am shocked about major deaths in the drama.

No

Just finished ep 18 which sad to say in the last available episode in Viki. The dream arc is now my favorite arc among all the cdramas I've watched. Ming Ye was constant as the God of War, but Sang Jiu's transformation from the clam princess to Ming Ye's wife and finally to the different stages of her devilization was entertaining to watch. Her different customs, head pieces and make up were all an eye candy.
I was amazed with the scene in LBFAD when Xi Yun tried to save DFQC by kissing him and activated her divine power. But the final scenes in the dream when Ming Ye walked into Demon Sang Jiu's sword despite the obvious pain shows his sincere desire to save Sang Jiu was even more amazing. Even Sang Jiu's couldn't stand seeing Ming Ye getting hurt thus she ended up pulling out the sword.
I've seen a few xianxia dramas were the ML shields the FL from a lightning strike (Immortal Samsara to name one), but the one here is the best for me due to the combination of amazing CGI, good dialogue and on point acting. The twist on the end when Ye Xiwu was still able to influence Ming Ye despite Sang Jiu already dying in the dream was a nice touch.
I'm sure I'll be seeing a lot of sweet moments in the next few episodes as Ye Xiwu seduces Tantai Jin so that spikes can develop on his heart. But having said that I'm sure there will be pain and anger too when she betrays him.
I've enjoyed the drama very much and hope the 2nd half will be able to maintain the good storytelling as many cdramas tend to become inconsistent and rushed during the 2nd half.

I also had no clue about any of the cast. But I was on a fun ride throughout...It was such a comedy xianxia! Probably the 1st! Of course in terms of certain aspects of the drama cant be compared to CLJ which has bigger budget. But overall, CGI is still good, logical narration and best of all, the FL is no push over meek character! She's kinda bad a**...Lol...I would suggest you give a try...You will be entertained...ML played 5 different characters which is commendable...At most I've only seen 3 but 5 is worth the journey...
I'll look it up when I have the time. I currently have a few dramas (old and new) that's on my watch list.

Haven't been watching last 2 dramas because i didn't like her chemistry with the ML.
But she and JCW definitely had very good chemistry here. I've recently rewatched WWWSK and plan to rewatch Healer in the near future.
-
Youtube kept on recommending CLOY OSTs everytime I open it, so I ended up watching and falling in love again with the unbelivable chemistry between these two lovebirds.
I know I'm very late to the party, but I read that Gummy sung I Give You My Heart during their wedding. Would have been better if IU was the one who did it.

@Wuzetian I've read about Starry Love a few times, but I'm don't usually watch cdramas when I don't know the ML or FL. I'm only up to ep 14 in TTEOTM, and agree I've already seen a few inconsistencies or confusing scenes, but the chemistry of the ML and FL is very good and the costumes and CGI are top notch.

I agree with you @Wuzetian Not really a fan of this translation and there's not a trace of Esther's sweet voice.
Btw have you tried watching Till the End of the Moon?

I think I'll stick to English.
I always prefer watching dramas in their original language but with English subs of course.

Just started ep 13, and I'm liking this dream arc of the drama. Bai Lu is especially cute as Sang Jiu.
I haven't read the book but I'm thinking if the dream arc is actually their previous life.
-
Discovered this gem of a drama when I was randoming searching in Viki during the weekend. I've only watched Bai Lu in Forever and Ever and really liked her here. I was actually waiting for her drama with Dylan Wang and had no idea she had this drama.
I didn't like Leo's character in Ashes of Love so I was a bit "hmmmm" when I was reading about the drama, but surprisingly he had very good chemistry with Bai Lu here. Definitely much better than the ML in Forever and Ever.
Currently at episode 10 and so far I find a lot of similarities with LBFAD. But having said that, I like Bai Lu's character better than Esther's. Also at this point in the story I like it better than LBFAD. I've never found a boring episode so far and hope this will be the case till the end. My favorite scene so far is when each of them took a hit for each other during Tantai Jin's battle with the demonic cultivator.

Surprised to see this thread is still open for posting. Almost 3 years since first watching this kdrama I'm rewatching it. Admitedly I'm fast forwarding the office and second couple scenes since I only want to see Park Min Young and her interaction with PSJ as their chemistry is really very good.
Sadly I didn't watch her last two kdramas (FLAW and LIC) in full because I didn't like her chemistry with the MLs.
. For a start I wonder
[ Mainland Chinese Drama 2023] Till The End Of The Moon 长月烬明
in Mainland China
Posted
I found ep 33 a bit slow and inconsistent. LSS, Jiumin and Jiwu planned to capture the brain eating demon but what was LSS doing by making herself drunk. Also after defeating the demon at night, Jiumin said he needs to see if LSS is in trouble, but the next scene was already morning and showed them talking. LSS seem more concerned and friendly to Jiumin again. My favorite scene was when LSS seem very pleased when Jiumin said he is looking at her because she is beautiful.
Jiwu obviously isn't over LSS yet in the same way that Mo-nu isn't over Jiwu, thus saving him from the demon.
Baiyu used a demonic art to inform Siying and Jingmie that Jiumin is going to Jing. Is her really a traitor now?
Ep 34 looks promising based on the trailer.
But it looks bad for Jiumin.
Will LSS intercede for him, or will his demonic powers surface?
