No official announcement yet, but I think quite likely because season 1 had earned money lol. But season 2 is quite difficult to make because the story happened at the sea + the island city fortresses etc and so they need a lot more budget. I'm very curious on how they're gonna present it (e.g. on land they could use wire for flying actions but it would be difficult over the sea unless using cgi).

If you're from Asia then "Ani-Mi Asia" (free), otherwise "Anime Made by Bilibili" (subscription needed), both on YouTube.

It will continue till end of the year. The current "Return to Tiannan" arc has 24 eps planned and ep 160 is no. 8 in the arc so 16 more to go.

Wang Duo won't be in season 2 because Han Li is in a new continent with only Qu Hun. So a completely new casts except Yang Yang and Han Jian Yi (Qu Hun)...

You're very observant😅👍Qu Hun is actually Zhang Tie made into a puppet, but somehow they choose to use different actors for Zhang Tie (Hu Yu Xuan) and Qu Hun (Han Jian Yi). Not sure why.

Here is a treat for you guys & gals who had watched the donghua. A fan made cute video & fan composed song titled "Cultivator Needs Vacation Too", featuring AI generated Yin Yue as lead performer and Han Li as pianist/guitarist:

No spoiler inside (it's just an MV) so even if you'd only watched the drama you can watch too, but of course you won't be able to recognize the rest of the characters except Han Li😂.

Last drama ep = donghua ep 63

It's only the beginning and the story gets a lot better down the road. The sheer imagination of the author is truly amazing, and in the novel there are quite a few circumstances where it looks like certain death for Han Li and there is absolutely no way out, but somehow the author could find a way to let him live lol.

There are also audio novel version on YT (in Mandarin of course but with subs).

They were all speaking different Chinese dialects (but only occasionally). E.g. Wang Chan was speaking Dongbei dialect (because Wang Duo is from Dongbei), his henchmen Zhong Wu was speaking Qingdao dialect (actor Patrick Zhang from Qingdao), and elder Tong Henan dialect (actor Deng De En from Henan). Martial uncle Ma in the herbs garden was speaking Mandarin mixed with Catonese dialect all the time. It was purposely done to increase the amusement among Chinese audience who would get and identify with them.

You're already doing very well in self-control cos most people will finish it within days😂

She was already made better in the donghua/drama, and tried to help HL escape. In the novel it was the complete opposite lol.

And I thought why your progress is so slow lol. Here are a few very well received ones: Renegade Immortal, Tale of Herding God, Jade Dynasty, Ling Cage (Sci-fi), A Portrait of Jianghu: Bad Guys (Wuxia), Sword of Coming (Wuxia). But so far none can top RMJI (which has a rating of 9.4 on Douban for the latest season), although some have higher viewership (one explanation is because RMJI is only 15 mins/ep and fans have the habit of accumulating eps before viewing in bulk, which is evident in ep 156 when they all came out to watch HL level up).

I sure hope they will do a better job selecting the cast for Zi Ling this time lol.

Not yet, still very very very far far away lol. The latest donghua ep 157 is only about chapter 640, which covers 25% of volume 1 😂 So according to current rate, it would be... ~ ep 628 lol

The story for season 1 arcs is completed. In season 2 a totally new and unrelated adventure awaits him.

I read both and find both volumes equally interesting lol. The story is not finished until he reached Dao Ancestor, and a lot of loose ends were tied in volume 2.

I don't know the version you read, but the original novel consists of 2 volumes, first one is mortal & spiritual realms, 2446 chapters. Second one is immortal realm, 1394 chapters.

Time to read volume 2. Another 1390+ chapters for you😂
