This show is amazing, of course there are some things that could make it better, but the show overall is great. The storyline, the characters and how they are dressed is all amazing. I am only on episode 27 and can't wait for the next to air. I think that a new season is needed and it should include them as a couple and fending off evil together if they were to end it as a series. The show definitely needs another season not just end it here that would be a waste of a potentially great show which could lead to a great series. I think what needs to happen though is that some of these character need to be pulled from ALP like his parents that would be crazy good I don't know how or why they would be brought in but it would be an amazing series in that sense.

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I WAS ABLE TO FINISH A XANXIA/FANTASY C-DRAMA.

Initially, I only wanted to watch it for Zhao Lusi. Knowing her, she always gives justice to all the roles she plays. This is also her first xanxia drama so it was refreshing to see her execute such role.

As expected, she definitely played her role well. NOT ONLY HER, but also the rest of the casts. Gosh!!! Wang Anyu is such a good actor. He displayed such a powerful and charming aura which I believe one of the vital points of playing his role. I didn't know him before The Last Immortal, but I'd definitely start following his journey after this together with Zhao Lusi.

Furthermore, the other casts were such an awesome actors as well. They complements each others' roles. The friendship, the character developments, the improvements all throughout the episodes, the transformations, the angst, the NEVER-ENDING twists. THIS IS A MUST WATCH.

The plot is not very original neither new and is very similar to the series " Eternal Love ", except that the actors of that show are much more famous and better, and in this one except for the leading actress whose acting I like and is good enough.

The story is about reincarnation, unrequited love, misunderstandings, power struggles, ambition and jealousy, and there are many battle scenes in the drama, but the ending is not sad and is acceptable.

The chemistry between the leading actors is not real and effective in my opinion, and the series has some minor flaws, but overall, unlike most Chinese dramas, it is not boring at all. I watched 40 episodes in 2 and a half days.

I give this show 7 or 8 out of 10 points.

Everything in this film was so predictable. From the first episode it was so obvious the lowly water immortal beast was going to be the Phoenix Queen. It was so frustrating to watch the ML blame his tribulations on the FL when she had nothing to do with the situation - she was passed out and sick. He goes on to kill FL, never once defends her while she's a lowly immortal water beast, but the moment she becomes a top ranking Demi god Phoenix Queen, ML is now invested and keen to marry her... whoa, this was just terrible to watch. But apparently this is "Love". 3 stars for good acting between the supporting characters but there was no chemistry between FL and ML.

I am new to Xianxia genre, it's definitely not my favorite. I wanted to give TLI a try since I dropped so many Xianxia in the past, didn't think that I'd binge watch all the episodes in a few days. I am loving the story (easy for me to follow), the acting, the beautifully detailed costumes, pleasing cinematography (not too overly saturated) and color grading. I actually went back and rewatched ep 1 and 2 while waiting for new episodes. I'm looking forward to see how the story unfolds even with the coming angst. If anyone who is new to Xianxia, please consider watching TLI. Love the water beast baby Ayin!
