a roller coaster of emotions and amazing characters - just perfect!
I so freaking love this drama. Everybody did an amazing job. The couple compliment each other perfectly. The contrast between Shanggu and Houchi and Bai Jue and Qing Mu are very distinctive and the actors played them really really well. I especially like the adorable faces Shanggu makes and the childish, innocent faces Qingmu makes. I love the bond the true gods share with right amount of banters here and there. It was really beautiful. I love how Shanggu plays the spoiled youngest family and her antics to get what she wants only to be played unknowingly by Zhi Yang and Yue Miat her own game. Even the villians in this drama played their roles really well. Jing Zhao and Xue Ying's conceitedness makes my eye roll every single time it's laughable. I actually hate them more than the actual main villian. It's a pity Wu Huan wasn't able to redeem herself in the end. I also feel like Jing Zhao should've suffered more for all her bad deeds but then again it's how she was raised so I can't really say I blame her. I love the soundtrack as well especially Zhou Shen's Ju Lian and A-Lin's Qian Xun. I guess the only thing I am miffed about is Dong Hua. But only because in my head there is only one Dong Hua and it's Vengo Gao as Dong Hua Di Jun.
I can't count the number of times I have rewatched this drama. Maybe until another one sparks my interest but for now I am stuck with it.

Nicee
A bit of spoiler alertIts overall nice. I cried in the Qingmu and Houchi arc. They did nothing wrong but their story is very tragic. I somewhat hate Bai Jue in here but the reasons were explained in future eps so thats not considered a plothole. Thank God. First few episodes are boring. Bai Jue fall in love with Shanggu too quickly thinking that he was the distant handsome guy trope hahaha. I love Shanggu but her hairstyle in the latter eps doesnt really looks nice. I mean, there's room for improvement. Houchi and Bai Jue's son really has a nice attitude. Love him ahahah.
I love the cgi nd vfx! Very surreal.
Its nice all in all.

One of the Best Xianxia series ever. Just watch it!!!
I start watching this without expectation, everybody keep saying about how they complain about the ML and FL just after watching one eps and keep saying the story of xianxia is always the same. Then I'm sorry have to say if you take people opinion to watch then you will miss one of the best xianxia series.This series start slow but end up giving on of the best roller coaster feeling you will ever had.
Don't try to skip anything cause later on you will feel lost cause every single conversation almost give some information for the story.
I have to give Kudos to the writer, director, editor, actor and actress to give such a well made xianxia series. ^_^

If you stop me, you will regret it...
LIKEWhat Jing Jian did which touched Sen Yu and he made a promise because of Jing Jian
The same thing both Bai Jue and Tian Qi said and they both knew exactly what happened
What Tian Qi and Gu Jun did for Hou Chi - what happened after to Bai Jue... I re-played that scene so many times just to cry
Change of role between Zhi Yang and Tian Qi - hilarious
Zi Han and Hong Ri pair also very funny
DISLIKE
Wu Huan and her daughter who acted exactly like her yucks
MUSIC - personal fav
年岁 Nian Sui - 毛不易 Mao Bu Yi
玦恋 Jue Lian - 周深 Zhou Shen
感应 Gan Ying - 刘宇宁 Liu Yu Ning
千寻 Qian Xun - A Lin
山海 Shan Hai - 灼天 Zhuo Tian
执生念 Zhi Sheng Nian - 叶炫清 Ye Xuan Qing

Definitely yes , it was worth it and you'll love this too like i do ✨ . This is a masterpiece drama and became one of my favorite . I have watched it already for how many times but i still feel the same while watching like it was the first time. The two main lead have done their best into this same goes with the others that viewers like us could feel the characters emotions which will keep us with the flow of the story . This is high recommended for everyone . Some parts would give us lessons too and there are parts were too heartbreaking that you need tissues with you but it was worth it ??✨?. Overall , it was amazing ?Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

one of the best underrated xianxia.
honestly, years ago I did try went into this show but it was boring. and, heard about people said it was boring and also the criticisms about the actress’ looks.went into it again few days ago, and by ep3 I was already quite interested to proceed. as episodes went by, I was quite amazed by how I didn’t even fast forward any single scenes until the end. compared to other xianxia I’ve watched, many were unnecessary filler scenes or misunderstandings that keeps piling up just to torture the viewing experience.
story
while many think first arc was boring, it was the base to understand the characters and while they solidify the main characters, the supporting characters were good too. then second arc, my fav arc, my fav couple. and those side couples didn’t disappoint too. I love Qingmu & Houchi. their love was much deeper compared to BJ&SG. things they do for each other and things they went through together. and that’s why the scene she stabbed him, it was really heartbreaking and sad. all those feelings, both side carried. ugh, my tears.
one thing I wish to praise is the villain. it was not those one dimensional villain. but a villain that stem from somewhere relatable in human nature. Wu Huan reminded me so much of Jin Guangyao from untamed. and to show how she grew from being a maid, to the ultimate villain and her downfall. it was just amazing journey.
acting
this is my 2nd XK’s drama. he’s good here as usual. sad boy is his forte tbh.
Zhou Dongyu. can I say this girl is amazing? like really. apart from some scenes where she smiled too much until I thought she did bloopers or something. her acting is damn solid. her smiles were really sweet, her crying scenes were heartbreaking.
OST
Ugh, this drama has one of best range of OST. Mao buyi, Ah Lin… just wonderful.
CGI
my previous drama was Shenli. while it was good, ALP was one level higher. it’s much big scale. see those dragons, qiongqi, Kylin etc it shows a lot.
ALP is one of the best xianxia I’ve seen. while following tropes here and there, what I appreciate here was the storytelling and believable characters. they don’t waste on any scenes and that is already one of contributing factor of a good production.

For you, I can sacrifice anything...
one of the best Chinese drama that i have watched..the first 15 episodes are my favourite... it tells the love story of shanguu and bai ju... really loved the character of tianqi and yumni..
after the story becomes some what boring as the character of houchi was not as cheerful as shanguu..
Gu jun is the best student and the best father who can do anything for shanguu...
there are some moments where i am disappointed ☹️☹️ like
1. why yumni is not reincarnated.
2. there should be a new love story for our tianqi
3. why does bai ju not helped houchi when she was hurt, even after knowing that she is pregnant.
4. there should be some episodes at the end showing shanguu ruling as chief god
Ost -- amazing ??.. They are in my routine playlist.. this is the only Chinese drama whose all OSTs I like.
Re-watch value -- very high.. i have watched it many times and i know that in future also i am going to re-watch it again....
really love the storyline and the cast ... Hope to have a new drama with same cast or drama with similar storyline

Sacrifices you make for the love ones
this drama has a lot of elements, the couple are really cute ,so is the second couple and the costumes are very pretty too.this drama talks about 4 Gods, a story about 2 of the 4 gods who fell in love with each other. there are some scenes that shows cute relationship of the couple and its just SO CUTEEEE. honestly my fav character is probably their kid , he is so CUTEEEE.
this is a little spoiler ,
by the tittle i say sacrifices u make for the love ones is because bai jue decide to sacrifices him self in order for his lover to be safe.

Raised the bar for Xianxias
An absolute masterpiece that will move your heart with its amazing story, cast, ost and production. Each scene is asthetically pleasing yet filled with lessons and heartbreak about the upholding your responsiblity and fighting for your love.The chemistry between the main leads was on fire, to the point that you'll feel the deep love they have for each other and the heartbreaks they gone through.
This drama was wonderfully written and produced. Its story was original and captivating, while the cast's portrayal made each character memorable. So far, this drama definitely has the best cinematography and CGI among all xianxias. Each soundtrack magnified the emotions portrayed by the characters with its melody and lyrics.
This drama will make you feel all kinds of emotions. There will be times when your heart may flutter with the sweet interactions and romantic scenes. On the other hand you may find your self crying from heary break and grieviance from deaths, sacrifice, and misunderstanding. Some scenes will also fill you with hatred and tension due to other's greed, jealousy, and wickedness, while it may also fill you with laughter and good vibes from the exchange of funny dialogues.
The plot shows us the price that gods pay for the peace and safety of all beings. It teaches us about the burden placed upon their shoulders as we pray and ask for their help. It talks about responsibilty, peace, love, loyalty, and justice. This drama manages to show us how each and everyone of us has their own difficulties, but no matter what we must learn to be selfless, protect our loved ones, stick to our principles, and never let oursevelves follow an evil path.
This was a highly-aniticpated drama and received a lot of high expectations before it was even aired. Fortunatley, it lived up to its hype and was definitely worth the wait. It is a must-watch and binge-worthy drama that will get you hooked right away.

Not My Type But...
I don't like melodrama type of shows, especially those in fantasy genre because it means they can just add zeros behind the years to make it work (eg pining for lover for 60,000 years). My cup of tea is usually rom-com but this show really pulls me in and in spite of 49 episodes (another reason not to like fantasy genre) which normal has tons of fillers and unnecessary side characters that don't add to the story, it surprisingly works.I shed tears in almost every episode after the midway, it was really that good. There is no 'boring' episodes and oh, the OST is simply amazing.
If you are into xianxia and you don't mind bittersweet storyline that span across a few lifetimes (and lives), this is an especially great show. The CGI really delivers and the fight scenes are really believable and at the level of some movies.

Satisfied Audience Here :)
I actually put off watching this drama for months, and I'm so glad I finally finished it weeks ago. Well, despite some negative critics on the review section, of how they got bored..this and that...This is my opinion so for me, this is worth watching.STORY
IT WAS GREAT. The plot grandeur I was looking for was there, the concept, the right amount of phasing, and the exact emotions. I cried buckets on 40th episode onwards, had to pause several times to pull myself together and rearrange my emotions. But of course, the drama has also several romantic scenes and bits that's definitely gonna make you smile like an idiot. ;) This had a happy ending, but I wished they added a few more scenes where Bai Jue and Shanggu enjoyed their time together with their son and the rest of the gang. And allowed at least 1 episode interval before they skipped 60,000 years in the future where both leads were reborn. It was a bit hurried for me when they did it right away on the next episode.
ACTING
The leads did justice to their characters, Xu Kai nailed all his four personas. But I really liked his Qingmu role better. Don't get me wrong, Bai Jue is so majestic and you can feel the sincerity as well from him towards Shanggu but he's a bit more reserved. As for the FL....well her acting is fine, except for her Houchi character. I know she's meant to be compared to Shanggu the chief god but, the writer could have at least thrown in a bit of Shanggu's personality in her. I dunno, she's so nerfed in that version.
I liked Tianqi too, his character gave a solid foundation for Shanggu to have someone as dedicated as Bai Jue to be relied on. He proved to be a true ally and a real friend. In dramas, its always good to have characters like Tianqi who did not really turned against them. Not at all impressed by Wuhuan's character. She's a walking red flag from the moment she showed up.
MUSIC
Okay. No words to describe. I added it to my Spotify playlist. So epic and always gave me goosebumps. Glad they chose Zhou Shen as one of the OST singers.
REWATCH VALUE
Definitely yes. Already downloaded the series!
OVERALL
I would recommend this. Its like the prequel story long before the worlds of Ten Miles of Peach Blossom and Eternal Love of Dream. The existence of the god realm that predates all others. Congratulations to the cast and entire crew cause this was a hit overseas. Xu Kai is sooo right for this drama.
