I like cultivation shows, and this show in particular embodied the right elements that made it into a very interesting cultivation drama. I haven't seen the animated version before watching this so I don't have any material to compare it. With this, I was extremely satisfied with how the show was directed, and how the CGI was perfectly integrated.

I love Leo Wu's interpretation and character delivery. His fellow actors showed an impeccable performance which contributed a lot into the show's overall brilliance.
