Well you can start from the beginning and rewatch all 176 episodes, 1.5 episode/day. Will fill in 4 months just about right😂

You mean last episode of *donghua* of this season right? That would be half of chapter 707 in the novel. Manhua I have no idea.

Thought you're watching a lot of others e.g Link Cage, Renegade Immortal etc. 😂

Bilibili 2025 Year End Concert, with Reno Wang singing the theme song of the donghua. They even included the flying swords made by a guy with drones that went viral.

Purely my guess. Some said June😂
Edit: Ok saw Bilibili's official announcement, they will start again in 2nd quarter 2026., so it can be any date between April-June. But I think should be April because they called it a "year series", if start from June then only half a year😂.

Well, it's year end and they deserve a vacation😂 They will certainly continue with the next season, just don't know how long a vacation they will take, my guess is they will start again after Chinese New Year. Next season will be very exciting cos a lot of fighting.

This is second last episode of the season by the way. After next week the donghua team will take a break and stop renewing for a while.

He is not dead yet, just gotten his legs chopped lol.

Episode 63 of the donghua, chapter 363 of the novel.

So when did I constantly mention it? And who are you to tell people what to do and what not to?

Huh excuse me? The poster asked the question and since I know the answer I just replied. What makes you say I mentioned it all the time?

Because in the novel, the author described Han Li as "a tan and ordinary looking guy with average talent". In the drama of course they need a handsome protagonist otherwise nobody will want to watch. But the spoken lines still follow the novel.

This Monday's episode 171 you'll see some familiar faces.😂

Yup finished both volumes 3 times over already (I read the original Chinese novels). Pace wise I find it ok, and what really amazes me is his sheer imagination. But since it's his first novel there are quite a few areas that are mediocre, e.g. very limited hidden plots, he's not good at writing male-female love stories, etc. And the Han Li in the novel is quite selfish and profit driven, and there are occasions he even breaks his promises for gains. These shortcomings were corrected in the donghua/drama by screenwriter Wang Yu Ren.

Good news ladies and gentlemen, in an interview by CCTV on the 16th Nov, founder Wang Zheng of Wonder Cat Animation (the company that made the donghua) had confirmed that preparation for season 2 of the drama is already underway. There were also talks for selecting new cast for Nangong Wan (lol).

He started writing the novel in 2008 and finished the first volume in 5 years. Then he stopped for 4+ years writing other novels, and came back writing volume 2 in 2017, which took another 5 years to complete.

Bilibili had unveiled the main characters‘ models for donghua season 5, including a new look for Nangong Wan (2nd and 3rd pictures):

This genre (common mortal ascending into immortal thru cultivation) was actually invented by the author of this novel. There are some copycats but so far I'm not aware of any being made into dramas. If you want to find xianxia dramas you can click the cultivation/xianxia tags in the synopsis section above, but they will just be the normal kind (good vs evil, love story, etc).
