Overcomplicated Plot, Rushed Ending and Unresolved Arcs ruined the drama
▪︎ I saw a quote that sums up the entire drama. "The beginning is the end and the end is the beginning"
▪︎ The second life in the drama should have been shown first. In my opinion, it would have made the drama less confusing. The 1st arc introduced about the chaos pearl, everyone wants it. The sect leader got killed, then they realised the chaos pearl in possession was fake. So many generations protecting something fake lol. Immortals are supposed to be smart and strong. Additionally in the arc, the new twist was the chaos pearl was fl all along felt out of place. After this the plot began introducing new character and fillers arc (zombie invasion, useless sect leaders, the bath place, theif of sect leader badge, amnesia) which ultimately became complicated and i didn't even know what am i watching, the synopsis made it more confusing. I liked Sun Zheni acting in Till The End Of The Moon and it couldn't have save this drama which is a whole mess.
▪︎ The fight at the end with the final boss taking over ml body got resolved with 2 timelines, 1 sword move and some talk about love or something from fl. What a bummer lol. The owner of the world is dead, current ml & fl died (came back in the end 5 mins), and the second lead plotting this whole scenario got an arc of redemption. The actions were done, lives were ruined in the process and demon lord (past emporer) was shaped into a villain by fate. This whole scenario was caused by fate not wanting to let go of chaos pearl and forbidden love. Typical xinxia plot and it reminds me of love and redemption heaven lord. Also the damn amnesia trope lasted for 8 episode or less for fl then later on same thing happened to ml when the demon lord took over his body
▪︎ Afterwards went back in time, did the same previous actions (the ml going to ascend to heaven, kill immortals) to prevent time from being disrupted, then leads had a brief happy ending, no explanation on if the previous people who had died is still alive, if they are alive what were their ending (fate is dead so are the wishes for the secondary characters is not going to happen in this timeline? (What is their ending in the new timeline?)The ruler of the gods and world was briefly mentioned in the middle and last arc. No idea how the final boss looks or backstory. The only objective is to take over ml body because he is strong enough to destroy the world and remake the world since fate and chaos do not follow the "heaven ways".
Also there are tiny bits of plot related to secondary characters love issues and how they sacrificed for one another in a unique way which had been well done but overall the main leads story dragged in the middle and last arc.
