The Universe – a battlefield of love and chaos, righteousness and wicked ambition
The title of this drama sounds like a typical love story. Still, in fact, it is about all nuances of love, betrayal, cosmic order, honor, pillars of life, self-cultivation, perfection, imperfection, sacrifes, purity, development.
THE SPIRITUAL WORLD
All characters belong to the world of immortals. They live in three realms – the Gods Realms, the Nether Realm (where demons live), and the world of ordinary immortals. There is an Ancestor God, Creator of the Univers, a source of the chaos powers, and four true gods born of him. One of them is Chief God, being God of Chaos.
Under these four Gods rule thematical gods. As in every magical story, every spiritual being possesses certain powers, rules over specific energies, is assisted by a personal beast, and develops a unique magic weapon. Magic is innate, cultivated, and can be exchanged for other magic. Everything has a price. The price could be money, treasures, time, lifespan, etc.
All spiritual bodies have a spiritual core, which depends on the origin and magical genetics. Every spiritual being also has a soul that is reincarnated. Once lost, the soul can never be returned.
Every 60 000 years happens a Tribulation of Chaos, which requires a mighty god to take the energies of chaos over himself, otherwise, the three realms will be destroyed.
The drama starts precisely at the point of a new Chaos Tribulation, 60 000 years after the last one.
THE HEAVENLY CHARACTERS
THE FOUR TRUE GODS are the Chief God of Chaos, Shang Gu (the leading female character), the God of Fire and War, Bae Jue (the leading male character), the mightiest celestial being after the Chief God; the God of Heaven, Zhi Yang; the God of Demons, Tian Qi. Their title is “Master.” They rule the worlds together. In fact, at the beginning of the story, Shang Gu, being in a new incarnation, still didn’t gain her power of chaos and needed to cultivate. She becomes the apprentice of the mighty Bae Jue, an extremely cold being, focused only on cultivation, without any sense of affection to other beings. However, he can’t help himself and falls in love with the vivid naughty Shang Gu. Due to her fate, Shang Gu loses her life to save the worlds. The devasted Bae Jue spent another 60 000 years collecting her soul and creating a miracle, giving life back to Shang Gu, this time as an ordinary immortal goddess.
I don’t want to spoil the story, so I won’t tell everything, but the essential point is:
Bae Jue tears his original core and produces a new incarnation while sleeping for another 10 000 years. This incarnation, Qing Mu falls in love with the latest incarnation of Shang Gu, Hou Chi, while the essence of Shang Gu is being cared for in the body of Hou Chi. Both temporary incarnations of Bae Jue and Shang Gu die, and the fate collides again original Bae Jue with the original Shang Gu.
Of course, it is impossible to have a story without villains, so we have two main villains here – the Devil God Xuan Yi, and a phoenix beast Wu Huan, who becomes a Heavenly Empress and later cultivates demonic powers and turns into Devil Goddess.
The three magic realms are full of gods and goddesses, magical pets, demons, immortals. Rules, wars, battles.
THE PRODUCTION
It won’t be an exaggeration to say that this is the most impressive Chinese drama production I’ve ever watched. Visual effects beyond imagination create a magical scenery that is a treat for the senses. Beautiful landscapes, beautiful energy vortexes. I’m enchanted.
THE CAST
The cast was good, but some actors were better. Xu Kai, for example, was good but somehow more handsome than good. He played Bae Jue twice, and it’s interesting that the second time he plays Bae Jue, he is better than the first time. Qing Mu, the other character he impersonated, was cute but a little too boyish.
Shang Gu, played by Zhou Dong Yu, was a little too childish to me. I couldn’t feel her as a mighty goddess. On the other hand, she was, in fact, a diety girl destined to grow up early and to have a life full of hardships, so maybe she should look this way.
I liked a character that is not among the main cast – the Devil God Xuan Yi. Excellent performance of Edward Zhang, I will look for other dramas with his participation.
Another good actor is Leo Lai, a High God and he felt like a god.
And of course, the acting of Jenny Zhang, who impersonated Wu Huan, was outstanding.
Actually, there were many diety characters presented very good by the actors.
