The five elements generate each other.
Earth generates wood.

Your Jade Bamboo Sword's power
is amplified by my earthly energy.

It's a shame that you've ignored
the most crucial point.

The Nascent Soul is born
from the Golden Core.

The transformation of the five elements
is easy to grasp.

I can turn the clouds into earth.

I can also turn rocks into gold.

As they say,
wood breaks upon encountering gold.

Gengjin Sword.

Great, that's incredible.

Come on, give me more.

As they say,

"The sword is as important as your life."

You don't even have a weapon anymore.

Kneel and beg for your life.

Otherwise, Lingjian Sect might say

that I, Master Zhifeng,
won without fighting

and bullied a weak girl with no weapons.

If you're willing to admit your mistake,

I can spare your life.

A Golden Core can't beat
a Nascent Soul indeed.

What should we do?
Fifth Elder is in danger.

-Yes.
-That's right.

-Let's bet she'll lose.
-Who would believe your lies?

So he won?

-Well...
-What should we do?

I'll add some more.

I bet that you'll lose.

I'll be rich.

Can we do this?

Yes, no problem.

Hey, can Master win?

I know.

She just wouldn't make a move because
she's afraid to damage the treasure.

She's afraid too much force

would break the Yaotian Sword.

Then this would be a futile fight.

Is she kidding me?

This time, the odds are 10 to 1.
Even our capital would be gone.

And she's worried about the sword?

I wake up looking so beautiful daily.

What's the matter?

You're so pleased from destroying
a piece of bamboo.

Zhifeng.

Has it been too long
since you fought someone?

What did you say?

Good boy.

I'll take care of you.

That's impossible.

The thing that can defeat my Gengjin Sword

should at least be
a tier one magical treasure.

How can it be
just an ordinary bamboo sword?

You don't get it.

Let me teach you.

A weapon that can be used in a fight

must have three basic qualifications.

First, low cost. Second, very useful.

Third, firm and sturdy.

Just like this Jade Bamboo Sword
in my hand.

Lingjian Mountain
doesn't have anything but bamboo.

We can fight 500 more rounds if you want.

Bluff all you want.
It's all because you're so poor.

That's why you couldn't afford
high-quality weapons.

I really can't stand you.

Why did you expose me?

See how I'll deal with you later.

Stop fighting!

Don't you see that I'm having a duel?

I'm sorry.

That nosy disciple of mine
is too talkative.

Don't let him affect you.

The force you're using now
is different from earlier.

You're not planning on having
attrition warfare, right?

So what if I am?

Do you think I'm scared of you?

Hey, have you heard of an old saying?

"There are no Frisbees
that can't be caught,

only dogs that die from exhaustion."

"Dog"?

Fifth Elder mentioned a dog. What's that?

What's a Frisbee?

What does it mean?

Well, she means...

I don't know how to explain it. Do you
want to watch first? Watch them, look.

No, tell me.

Master said

we should always be eager to learn
and not afraid to ask questions.

And you call yourself a genius.

You know more things than me.

I know.

You also don't know what it is, right?

I think you're hungry.

How do you know?

Master Zhifeng.

Your strategy is not tiring at all.

My sweat has already dried.

You are so insulting.

Wang Wu, watch out.

Doesn't this old fart get tired?

The odds are 10 to 1.

I'll be rich!

Fifth Elder is great.

Then I...

-I lost everything.
-I'm doomed.

-Look, we all lost.
-We're all doomed. What should we do?

Why?

Why?

You're...

You're just a Golden Core.

If you didn't cheat,

how can you be so powerful?

I'm not that powerful,
but you're just too weak.

Of course.

Compared to so-called
Nascent Souls of regular sects,

you're not bad.

At least the way you do
your martial arts is quite cool.

However, this is Lingjian Sect.

How can your fake Nascent Soul Stage

attained by using evil methods
be compared to ours?

This has nothing to do
with the Qianyuan Ranxue Technique.

I just focused on practicing it.

And I'm not good at fighting.

Come, everyone. Listen up.

If he wins, it's a spectacular technique.

If he loses, it's because
he's not good at fighting.

You said it all.

When I destroyed your headquarters
in Baiyue Country back then,

I wanted to stop your evil methods
from circulating

and misleading people.

What a bunch of nonsense.

What does a lowly
and indecent woman like you know?

After I succeed with my research,

this Qianyuan Ranxue Technique

would lead to transformation
of the world of cultivation.

Anyone who has limited
and insufficient potential

would obtain a breakthrough because of it.

Going back to the glory days
of the Nine Continents

will not be a dream anymore.

However...

However, you've destroyed

all of this.

You are

the great sinner
of the world of cultivation.

The Wang family has a daughter
who has just grown up.

She was born with a natural beauty
that's difficult to hide.

If you insist on branding me
as a femme fatale,

I'm quite happy to oblige.

However, with a lame technique like yours,

go home and dream on.

Fine.

Tell me, what should I do?

What can I do?

I don't have enough potential.

I don't have enough wisdom.

I've reached the end of the road
in my cultivation.

If I don't use extreme methods,

how can I improve?

In this world,

aside from those

very few people with great talent,

tell me,

who hasn't encountered obstructions
in their cultivation paths?

Instead of wasting your time

in front of the barriers of fools,

why don't you transform your life

and use it to your advantage?

I also want to be glorified.

How inspiring.

Men will fall silent upon hearing you

and women would feel degraded.

Let me ask you.

Not enough potential and other things?

Without diligence and determination,
why are you even undergoing cultivation?

Why don't you just go home and farm?

Do you really think everyone
is equal in the path of cultivation?

"If you're not capable enough,
don't do it."

That's the never-changing motto
in cultivation.

If you want a breakthrough,

that's fine.

However, when you start using
those evil methods

and take shortcuts,

this path has long ended for you.

What a shame.

You've reached the Nascent Soul Stage,

yet you've lost faith
that's fundamental in this path.

And you even want to lead a commotion.

Just lead people to the garbage dump.

You...

You...

-Fifth Elder is incredible.
-She's amazing.

-That's right.
-That's right.

He lost?

Wang Wu is the top Golden Core
in the Nine Continents indeed.

The two of them are so far off
in terms of faith in the path.

Master Zhifeng's opponent

knows the Wuxiang Immortal Heart
after all.

And his Qianyuan Ranxue Technique

is just a shortcut method anyway.

Did he really think
he could use that technique

to surpass the barriers
of wisdom and potential?

He has long been abandoned
by the path of cultivation.

I...

I admit my defeat.

Wang Wu, you won!

You're incredible.

This is great. Master won!

You're incredible, Master.

I knew your master would win.

-I knew it.
-Then why were you so worried earlier?

-Her cultivation is incredible.
-She's incredible.

Just wait.

That's right.

We've gone all-in.

-We've gone all-in.
-Good thing I didn't bet too much.

I'm not as skilled as you.

I admit defeat.

This sword has been with me for 100 years.

I hope you'll take good care of it.

Don't worry.

I would surely

not keep this sword at Grave of Swords.

I'll surely sell it for wine.

You...

I hope you can promise me one thing.

Tell me.

Actually,

I'm not a Shengjing Sect's elder.

But Master Shuiyue is
really my granduncle.

We just don't see each other often.

I was using his status to uplift my own.

Please don't tell
Shengjing Sect about this.

This is all my own fault.

What about the Qianyuan Ranxue Technique?

It has nothing to do with Shengjing Sect.

It's embarrassing.

I got that technique

from Qianling Cult's Holy Spirit Sorority
in exchange for donating blood.

I bid you farewell.

I'll see you if fate allows it.

-What happened?
-What should we do?

A Nascent Soul lost to a Golden Core.

-She won. That Master Zhifeng...
-Master Zhifeng is a fake.

-He's such a fake.
-That's right.

Did you hire him to trick us?

-Right.
-It doesn't count.

-Right.
-What are you doing?

Are you a cheater?
Is this how you renege on a bet?

-I think he...
-This must be intentional.

Who knows if you've hired someone
to get our money?

No, our spirit stones.

-Yes.
-That's right.

-He must have tricked us.
-It's intentional.

-As if.
-Sooner or later...

You set us up.

-Didn't you? You...
-If Master Zhifeng wins, it's 1.5 to 1.

If Master wins, it's 10 to 1.
If you won't pay...

-He's out of line.
-Give back our spirit stones.

-Right.
-Close the door and let Liuli Xian out.

Forget it, Zhu Qin.

We can't afford to offend Liuli Xian.

What are you afraid of? Take our corn out.

-I didn't bring it.
-Let's go.

Here, this is your prize.

It has been two years.

I've never seen so much money before.

I helped you.

Can you tell me the answer now?

What answer?

"There are no Frisbees
that can't be caught,

only dogs that die from exhaustion."

What does that mean?

Doesn't she have the memory of a goldfish?
How could she remember that?

Stop collecting stuff. Tell me, come on.

Well...

Look, my master is the dog.

Wait. No, she's the Frisbee.

Master Zhifeng...

Master Zhifeng is the dog, who ran away.

The Frisbee tired the dog out,
so the dog ran away.

So that's what it means.

I, Xiaoliuli, announce

that I want to be like Elder Wang Wu
from now on.

And be a good Frisbee
that can tire out a dog.

Bye, Frisbee.

What is that Holy Spirit Sorority
he mentioned earlier?

Does anyone know?

Since it's related to an evil cult,

it must not be good.

Let me use the Great Xingchen
Saber Technique to check on it.

Wait.

Don't burn your hair anymore.

XUANYUN HALL

Indecent.

Master, you're good
at hiding your abilities.

I'm still a young girl.

How can I just expose myself to people?

Master, how can you say that at your age?

I should be the one to say that.

I'm talking about the competition.

Right, that.

I just dismissed a useless Nascent Soul.

It's not a big deal.

You still beat someone above your stage.
That's extremely hard.

Wang Lu.

You were misled by a rumor
in the world of cultivation.

Everyone knows

that the stages for a top-notch cultivator

are Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Semi-Deity,

and the last one is Tribulation.

Everyone thought that
this is a hierarchical structure,

but it's not.

Starting from the Golden Core,

the stages are not distinguished
according to their power anymore.

Their cultivation just goes
in different directions.

Regardless of which direction you go,

you'll become powerful
as long as you work on it.

Whether you're a Golden Core or Nascent
Soul, you just end up on different paths.

This is the first time
I've heard of this theory.

Because this is
the first time I've said it.

I've even applied for a patent.

Too bad it was rejected.

Nonsense.

It would be strange if it wasn't rejected.

My theory is not yet complete anyway.

Just forget about it.

By the way, Master.

What should we do
with your opponent earlier?

He left his immortality treasure
and he was gone.

As if.

Aside from blackmailing and insulting him,

did you do anything good to him?

Forget it.

You've hated me for a while anyway.

Since what happened
at Baiyue Country was exposed,

he'll die if he goes back.

If I were him,

I'll stay in Lingjian Sect to seek refuge.

Master.

I didn't expect you to have a kind heart.

Think about it.

Shengjing Sect's Acting Sect Leader
is his granduncle.

That means he must know a lot
of their dark secrets.

If I detain him,

-I--
-Master Shuiyue would pay a big ransom.

You're up to no good, aren't you?

This is what you call
hitting two birds with one stone.

Master.

Did you come because of other matters?

How did you know?

Master, those are the money I've won.

You've bet on your master's life, okay?

As if. I heard it very clearly.

The Inner Demon Oath won't harm anyone.

It's just a competition.

Wang Lu.

I won't take your money.

I'm just afraid that you're young
and don't know how to handle money well.

So I'll keep them for you first.

It will earn interest

and you can use it
for your wedding in the future.

Damn it.

Forget about my wedding.

Master, the money is actually for you.

This is a trick.

I can't hide anything from you indeed.

Actually, I have a favor to ask.

If you take one's money,
you must avert him from disaster.

-Tell me.
-Master.

Hai Tiankuo placed a Restriction
in Xiaohai's body.

It hurts like hell
every time he has an attack.

I would like you
to take him as your disciple.

Since you can improve my condition,

you can surely do the same
to his Restriction.

Am I right, Master?

Let's talk about that handsome guy later.

Let's drink.

Master, if you didn't object,
that means you've agreed.

Xiaohai.

Xiaohai.

Xiaohai.

My master agreed.

Wen Bao.

Wen Bao.

Where's Xiaohai?

I don't know.

Hai Tiankuo.

Why don't you just kill me?

Why are you keeping me alive?

If you don't kill me today,

someday in the future,

I'll surely kill you.

With the use of your weak spells?

I originally thought you'd improve
in two years after joining Lingjian Sect.

I never thought

you'd disappoint me so much.

I, Hai Yunfan, will do what I say.

Someday,

I'll let you pay for what you did,
an eye for an eye.

Wang Lu, are you there?

Liuli Xian?

Xiaohai.

Do you want to have some?

No.

Why are you here?

I...

Yes, why am I here?

Are you alone?

Who else would be here?

But Xiaohai.

Isn't this Cangjing Library?

Why are you here?

I...

Actually, I'm here because...

I know.

You're here because...

You're playing hide and seek, right?

Yes, hide and seek.

Let's play together, okay?

Okay.

CANGJING LIBRARY

This is bad.

There's an intruder
in the Cangjing Library.

Who?

We're doomed. It's Third Elder.

If he finds out that we've come
to a restricted place,

he'd surely expel us.

He won't.

My master promised

that I'll always be his disciple.

Come on, I'll bring you outside.

Liuli Xian.

You have to trust me.

We can't go out.

If they find out we're here,

we're going to be expelled.

You're lying.

I'll always belong to Lingjian Sect.

My master promised

that I'll always be his disciple.

Master!

I'm sorry, Liuli Xian.

Who exactly snuck in here?

Come out and face me if you dare.

Come out if you dare.

You...

Let's go.

CANGJING LIBRARY

That was close.

Are you here to find the book
on instructions to lift restrictions?

Hey.

We're best friends.

Just tell me.

I could have been your lookout.

Lookout?

You have ulterior motives indeed.

Elder Fang He.

It's not what you think.

Wang Lu, you're good.

Never mind that you don't
follow the rules yourself.

You even brought an Outer Court disciple

and incited him to help you steal things.

By the way,

tell me.

What exactly were you looking for
here in Cangjing Library?

Food.

Xiaoliuli?

This is Cangjing Library.

Shouldn't you go to the canteen
to look for food?

I was training nearby.

I suddenly became hungry.

I was looking for food.

From that secret tunnel above,

I accidentally fell to the ground.

Good thing

both of them saved me
and even gave me food.

You want some?

I've already eaten.

Is that true?

Yes.

Cangjing Library is a restricted place.

If you intrude again next time,

I'll send you to Tiance Hall

and punish you
according to the sect rules.

I wouldn't dare.

I won't do it again.

You always accept my advice,

but you never change.

Xiaoliuli.

Where's the entrance to the secret tunnel?

Take me there at once.

I'll seal it immediately

to prevent those who have ill intents

from taking advantage of it.

It's over there.

I'll take you.

I'm sorry.

Tell me.

Why did you come to find me?

It's good news, of course.

Come with me to see my master.

You mean

your master has agreed
to take me as her disciple?

She didn't disagree, that means
there's a good chance she will.

Granduncle?

Grand...

Granduncle.

Who's your granduncle?

What a shameful
and useless piece of trash.

-You can't even beat a Golden Core.
-I...

And you tell people
you're from the Shengjing Sect.

Granduncle, I...

Spare me.

Let me go.

Acting Sect Leader.

What should we do about Master Zhifeng?

He's just a clown.

He'll only destroy my plans if he's alive.

I understand.

Originally, I didn't care

whether you live or die.

But you lost to a Golden Core this time.

And you lost so badly.

This made me very interested

in Lingjian Sect.

Could it be that Lingjian Mountain

has a large inheritance from
the Golden Generation as the rumor has it?

Seems like it's time to find a good excuse

to check out Lingjian Mountain.

Head Disciple.

I finally have a small accomplishment
in Wuxiang Immortal Heart.

But why won't you come back and see me?

Do you have another woman out there

and forget about me?

Master, it turns out that you're here.

Why are you here?

Didn't I tell you I want to drink alone?

Stay as far away from me as possible.

Master, if you accept Xiaohai
as your disciple,

I'll stay as far away from you
as you want. I'll leave now.

Hey.

His brother is the general
of Junhuang Sect.

Wuxiang Peak has lots of people
but few resources.

I'm afraid we can't accommodate
a big shot like him.

Fifth Elder.

I've long cut off my relationship
with Hai Tiankuo.

We're absolutely irreconcilable.

And I sincerely want you to be my master.

Please accept me.

Originally,

if a talented boy like you
had come to learn from me,

I would have definitely
not treat you indifferently.

However, Sect Leader
has already given me that troublemaker.

Don't be disheartened.

Every five years, Lingjian Sect
would hold training in the mortal realm.

If you get first place,

you can directly become
a Successor Disciple.

At that time,

I don't mind taking care of both of you.

Every five years?

That means I need to wait
for three more years.

Strictly speaking, it's two years,
seven months and eight days.

Master.

You've always been unrestrained.

Can't you make an exception
for Xiaohai just once?

Does he have to wait three years?

Who's unrestrained?

I'm a good girl, okay?

Master, don't force me.

If you don't agree,

I'll expose you and Seventh Elder's
secret relationship.

Then tell Ling'er too.

Actually, she's my bastard daughter
with Sect Leader.

Why do you have such a peculiar taste?

You never disappoint me.

There's a surprise every day.

Thank you, Wang Lu.

I'll definitely do everything

to give you a surprise every day.

What a compliment.

Wang Wu, come to Jianxing Hall.

I want to talk to you.

Doesn't this old man have telescopic eyes?

When has he started
having ultrasonic ears too?

We're doomed.

-Master, your mortal enemy is calling you.
-Wang Wu.

What mortal enemy?

We just fought one or two times.

Come here.

Sit down.

Sit.

Don't be disheartened.

Even though you have to wait three years,

maybe Sect Leader
will bring the training forward

when he is in a good mood one day.

Actually, you don't need to console me.

It's fine if I don't become
Fifth Elder's disciple.

Even if the Restriction in my body
can't be removed,

I definitely won't give up on my revenge.

No matter what happens,

you still have me.

I don't believe that if we work together,

we still can't handle Hai Tiankuo.

Wang Lu.

Thank you.

Don't mention it. We're best friends.

Break a leg.

Break...

Why do you say "break"...

It means we need to work hard on it.

"Break a leg" is something we say
in the Wang family's village.

"Break a leg."

Break a leg.

Hai Yunfai, break a leg!

Break a leg.

Wang Lu, break a leg!

Break a leg.

Break a leg!

Break a leg!

-Break a leg!
-Break a leg!

Wang Lu, I've never asked you before.

Why did you join Lingjian Sect?

Initially,

I actually just did it out of spite.

I met my master by chance

and I found out about cultivation,

but she said I don't have potential.

Based on my personality,
how can I be reconciled to failure?

So I took an oath.

Someday,

I'll let the world of cultivation
know my name, Wang Lu.

Later on,

you know about it already.

I became my master's Successor Disciple.

My master may not be virtuous,

her lowliness has no limits

and she gets involved in lots of trouble.

But today,

when I saw her beat Master Zhifeng

by faith so easily on stage,

I think I suddenly realized
why I joined Lingjian Sect.

I want to become powerful.

I want to become like my master.

And I'll even exceed her accomplishments.

I want to be better than her.

Wang Lu.

You can surely do it.

Wang Lu.

Break a leg!

Hai Yunfan, Wang Lu, break a leg!

Break a leg!

Xiaohai.

Someday,

we'll amount to something.

Sect Leader.

Do you think the moon
is not round enough tonight?

Why did you ask me to come here?

I summoned you because the two elders
has something to say to you.

Why?

After resolving an external conflict,
we're dealing with an internal one?

Actually, Fang He and I

-both want to--
-Don't even think about it.

I didn't even say yes to Master Zhifeng.

And you two want to do it together.

-Have you considered how I would feel?
-I...

-You're old and disrespectful.
-I...

I haven't even said anything.

Why are you jumping to conclusions?

Then say it.

I'm in a rush to go home and drink.

They want to apologize to you.

Did I hear you correctly?

All right.

Never mind.

Just dismiss me.

I knew it.

There's no point in apologizing
to this kind of woman at all.

Because no matter what you say,

-she'd never feel your sincerity.
-That's right.

You're blaming me
for your lack of sincerity?

I...

I can't win over you.

A package delivered by a sword.

What is this?

It's from Master Shuiyue.

It's really a bribe in exchange
for our silence.

A tier one black crystal stone.

You know what?

This is equivalent
to 1,000,000 spirit stones.

I'm rich!

It seems like that fight was not in vain.

We can't accept this black crystal stone.
Give it back.

No.

Before we find out
what Shengjing Sect's motives are,

we can't accept this black crystal stone.

Don't even think about it.

There's more.

Roasted camel.

What kind of riddle is that?

Maybe there's a treasure inside too.

Don't eat it.

Look carefully.

I think there's something wrong inside.

There's nothing wrong with it.
It smells quite good.

The meat is fine. The fatty and lean
portions are equally distributed.

There's just a hint of
spiritual energy in it.

Could it be a spiritual donkey?

You eat it.

Shengjing Sect is really brutal.

They turned Master Zhifeng
into a roasted donkey.

I...

This is fishy indeed.

Like what Master Zhifeng said,

if Qianling Cult has nothing to do
with Shengjing Sect,

this bribe for our silence
is too expensive.

Besides, Lingjian Sect

doesn't have much interaction
with Shengjing Sect.

One who is unaccountably solicitous
is bound to be hiding evil intentions.

Stop making guesses.

Wanxian Alliance's fabulous five.

After one year,

he said they want to hold martial arts
competition with Lingjian Sect.

No way.

Lingjian Sect is located remotely
with only a few members.

The Inner and Outer Courts combined
would only total to a few hundred.

And he wants us to be the host?

He surely wants us to be a laughingstock.

Since it's what the leader
of the Wanxian Alliance wants,

I'm afraid we can't get out of it.

There's always a solution to a problem.

What we need to do now
is to let those immature disciples

train in the mortal realm immediately.

Sect Leader,
I don't think we should do that.

We have one year before the competition
between the five sects.

We should let disciples
who have joined less than ten years

train in the mortal realm.

First,

the evil cults are rampant these days.

Lingjian Sect should eliminate them,

keep the peace of Cangxi State
and protect its citizens.

Second, by having a deep
understanding of the Nine Continents,

they'll understand human affairs more.

That way, cultivation and understanding
will complement each other,

so that they won't forget
the source of faith.

Liu Xian, Fang He, Wang Wu,

the three of you will be
the leads in this training.

-Yes.
-Yes.

Wang Wu.
