This plot is not somewhat new in Xianxia genre but could have been more interesting if emphasis given on flow of storytelling. It feels weird and jumps from one scene to another which makes no sense sometimes.
Some scenes don't make sense why they are included in the particular situation.

Now come to the acting and chemistry part.
...................................................

To be honest, acting was not worst but yeah not exceptionally good either. It was watchable to me so I feel it was in just okay category. The expressions of leads wasn't on the point sometimes, let alone micro-expressions.

I couldn't feel chemistry between leads when they were in Heavenly realm or in the Demon/Devil realm. It was almost bland without any spark.

A little spark I feel, when they were in human realm and Female lead was a General. This is the most interesting and well done arc of the whole drama. I think makers should have extended this part of the story.

Characters
...................................................

I like SiMa Wang Yue and Chen Yan more than Wei Zhi and Yan Yue. Nan Mu was also good. Wei Ling Yue had potential to do something good but she end up being a toxic person.

Some characters are just annoying and waste of screen time like Yi Er. They didn't do anything in progression of the plot.

...................................................

Ending was rushed and bad. I don't have problem with sad endings but this one was exceptionally bad. Many characters died without any solid reason and efforts, like they were just for dying. I'm not even impressed with main villian as he could have done something more interesting but what he did was all predictable.

...................................................

Costumes were good but hair accessories of Female lead were too much even when she don't have money and comes from a poor family, though I like it in some scenes.

...................................................

So, in the conclusion, I won't recommend it to anyone.
