** This is a given when you have [=STARember=] as the artist of the ''manhua'', who had already drawn several drop-dead gorgeous fanart of the novel. The entire ''manhua'' is basically aesthetic and visual porn.

** Early in the novel, upon being questioned by Shi Qingxuan, Hua Cheng reveals that his greatest fear is being unable to do anything but watch the one he loves suffer. Then comes Volume 4, which ''will'' make the reader know exactly how Hua Cheng feels.
** Xie Lian's awful cooking that only Hua Cheng can eat without having terrible consequences is something PlayedForLaughs throughout the novel. We later find out that Xie Lian's mother due to being royalty was also lousy at cooking and [[spoiler: that Xie Lian's cooking wasn't always inedible, making it likely that his current terrible cooking was subconsciously influenced by remembering his mother's style.]]
** The circumstances of Ruoye's birth. Pei Ming in-universe comments on how useful the spiritual device is and wants to forge one for himself, to which Xie Lian privately thinks he wouldn't if he knew how Ruoye was born. [[spoiler: Ruoye is the silk used to bind Xie Lian to the altar while he was stabbed 100 times as well as hanging Xie Lian's parents to death and Xie Lian when he tried to commit suicide.]]

** The first trailer for the ''donghua'' shows that Haoliners is using a simplistic approach in terms of animation. Nevertheless, in even only a two-minute preview, it's shown that the animation still perfectly captures the setting of the novel and the looks of the characters.

* DarkerAndEdgier: While appearing to be lighter than the demonic cultivation of MDZS, because this work deals with the divine realm, the theme of the plot is a lot more morally based and examines the lengths to which individuals will go to survive when presented with immortality, whether they themselves be mortal or immortal. The results are unpleasant to say the least.

* TheWoobie: To summarize, it's hard to find anyone who ''isn't'' this trope.

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Shi Wudu. Either you sympathize with him for [[spoiler: cursing He Xuan only to save Shi Qingxuan from a life of misfortune]], or you don't. And that's just the beginning of what could be a long debate.
