It is a bit slow, I agree, but I like certain aspects of it. I think eps 21-22 are the best of the arc.
The following arc is so far more interesting to me so far. I think the demons from the painting arc were just a bit underwhelming to me, and that was part of the lack in that story
He is a very interesting and very grey character. We know what his ultimate end-game is, but we have seen his…
Yeah, I’m getting hints that he may not be all bad, which is a good thing for this story. Just hope he doesn’t become Al obsessive over the FL, because that would be not only annoying but so cliche
FL is fire 🐦 and the ML is the god of war. To save FL, ML gave her his cultivation and sealed her identity…
Yes, I believe ML wanted FL not to be recognizable in her next life as a mortal. Interestingly, in his mortal life, he is also currently not who he should be (I believe he is the previous demon Lord's son).
it is still on iqiyi's platforms both intl and domestic and the reservations are apparently still open.https://www.iqiyi.com/v_1krgtsya1mo.htmliq.com/album/云起时-2025-11xjieaye91?lang=en_us
There's an iQIYI World Conference next week (4/23). Maybe there will be info then, which would offer some hope for this airing at a decent time in the near future lol. If nothing, I would assume this one is shelved.
Best 2 eps yet of this painting arc. Gets a bit philosophical too. What is real to us vs illusion and the inevitable…
Ah, we also finally meet Prince Xinan. Too bad he could not escape his fate, but even in the real world, it was already too late for him.
Interesting that the moon seems to be the key to awaking from the spell. Also looking forward to see how they break free from the painting. The little bugs will be important no doubt.
This sand demon gets on my nerves though - time for him to go bye-bye

1. Everyone sucked into a painting has opposite personalities.2. Humans bleed but everything else turns into ink.3.…
I had noticed that beggar and thought, yeah, that lingering shot on him must not be accidental.
I guess the only humans that would bleed red blood are those who were sucked into the painting (real humans from the real world) - hence why XY insists on trying to make the people bleed from the 6 places he's trying to visit (I forget what they are called collectively).

Also, hope we're not in angsty land now because of her parents. And that brother of his is bad news.
