This show is terrible, awful, bad, ungood.
I've watched all the other tomb shows, I can overlook a lot and enjoy some b-level entertainment.
If the CG isn't great in some shots, if the acting is a bit ham, if the story isn't perfectly paced. The whole thing can still be enjoyable.
This is not.
I don't know if they had no money for this, but I've seen a lot better done with a small budget. This seems like incompetence.
The story is non-existent, we're just watching a series of events as people go from one place to the next and sometimes shoot at stuff. It's truly remarkable how little location and time are established and maintained. At few points was I even remotely able to tell who was where, in relation to other locations or other groups of people. It seems to suffer from character teleportation, where people are just suddenly in a scene, somehow. And then they disappear for a few episodes.
The characters are insultingly awful. Xiao Ge is not in the show at all. It's common for him to be in the background or missing for some parts, but here he's just not there until the end. Fatty and Wu Xie are both incredibly unlikable. I'd say I didn't like Xie's casting (and I don't), but his performance perfectly mirrors Fatty's - whiny, annoying, useless and unlikable.
I knew, roughly, what was supposed to happen in the story and it kind of did? But the majority of the running time is spent on doing nothing, while the important stuff is glossed over and mainly happens off screen. (no budget for CG?)
The show is ugly.
It's remarkably ugly. All the sets, all the shots are grey and dull and the CG is terrible and the black levels between live action and CG elements don't match. Youtubers could do better than this in this day and age.
I considered they might've been damaged by Covid, but then again - the Worm Valley series came out at the same time and it's everything this show is not - vibrant, pretty, well acted and written, with setup and payoff and a clear story structure.

The Daomu shows always tend to be somewhat lower production value, with loose and sloppy storytelling. But usually they save face by having neat and fun characters.
Not this one.
I get that we all want to know what happened in this part of the story, but it's almost not worth watching.
Read a story summary.
(I almost gave up twice)
