Having no Meridians seems familiar.
Not a bad start though.

Not a bad first ep. Yuan Zun is a prequel to BTTH, let's see what this story will be about.

Overall, a good donghua. Quality animation. Decent story. Interesting characters. Hope Season 2 will have even better visuals with more colors.

@Xealias Aside from all mc meeting in higher dimension, nothing in common.
There's a reddit post that talks in detail on the topic. See for details.

Is there any official way to complain to studios why they don't follow the original novel ?
By derailing from source material, they only produce trashier version. For example, Renegade Immortal. The book is good, the studio butchered the story in the donghua.

Damn...they actually made this to 3D donghua. I really like the manhua but I stopped reading to stack the chapters. The first thing to get use to is the 3D animation because the manhua was very vibrant and colorful.
