The Taoism Grandmaster
Episode 5
You've known each other previously?
Actually, the mission my father gave me was completed by him
Without him,
I would have turned into dust
Could he be someone who is highly skilled?
No. Absolutely not
He definitely cannot be someone who is highly skilled
His skills aren't even properly taught (no qualification). It's all a bunch of nonsense
Also, every time I see him, I get annoyed
However, he always manages to complete missions that are impossible to complete
Are you praising him or insulting him?
What you mean is that we should listen to his instructions?
But that's too dangerous
Unfortunately the time we have now is too little
If both parties continue to fight, there will be someone who will be sacrificed
Even if we complete this training
Our warriors in the fairy realm will greatly decrease
According to Zhang Ling's plan, the number of people getting hurt will be minimal
Senior brother, this matter is of grave importance
Should any mistake occur, hopes of becoming the way seeker will be broken
I have come to a decision
Everything will go according to Zhang Ling's plan
No. I object
No
Enough. If there are no other objections
Zhang Ling, we will leave everything into your hands
Go ahead and proceed
This guy's smile is really irritating
As if everything he says is right
I would like to see if his method is successful
Since everyone agrees that the winner takes all,
I will reinforce the rules of the competition
Each party will send out 3 members
To find the 5 tokens which are lost outside
Whichever team finds the most and also brings them safely back to this house
Is the winner and will take all of the 130 tokens
The losing team will be eliminated
Alright. Now, everyone, swear along with me
Swear upon what? What kind of new tactic is this?
Not going to swear? I'm afraid that some might be sore losers
I solemnly swear to the heavens
That I will accept my loses. Otherwise I will be cast aside by heaven and earth
And suffer horribly
I sincerely swear by this as the gods may attest
Representing this team will be my three brothers
What about you?
I have not thought this through yet
What? You haven't thought this through?
Didn't you say that you have thought of a plan already? We are running out of time
If time is running out then let it be so. If they want to leave first
Let them leave then
As expected. Why do we have to believe him?
Then we shall obey your words. Young master Qian Qiu,
Please take down the Ju Ling golden bell
We want to start the bet. No please wait for a while. No, let them leave
Young master Qian Qiu, you aren't regretting this are you
We've all sworn to the Heaven
Fall back!
Why did you hit me again?
Eldest senior brother, I'm sorry
I really know my fault this time
Zhang Ling, what are your plans exactly?
Even if I had any, that slap caused it all to disappear
If you don't say, I will kill you with my arrows
Shoot then. If I die, we will all lose
That secret weapon is you
Alright
Brother Zhang Ling, we will follow your plan
Along with Ju Xiong and Ying Er
But what purpose does this have? Just do as told
The three of you
You can leave now. Everyone be rest assured
We have already won
I will reveal the truth now to you
To get the 5 tokens outside, the only difficulty is
Is the beast. And that beast has one special characteristic
Is that if you are not carrying that token with you,
It will not attack you. So, if my guess is correct,
The three brothers have already found a way to take on the beast
They will get the token by passing it around continuously
Once the beast has chased the first person with the token
The first person will throw the token to the second
The beast will then give up attacking the first and chase the second
The second will pass it to the third. This way...
They can increase the distance between the beast and send the token back to the house
With this method, they are able to obtain the rest of the tokens
This can be considered as a good plan
Although this method is good, the beast is faster than us
To outrun it will take some time
But that's fine because we have our secret weapon
Liu Bu Fan's specialty is the bow and arrow. As long as the tip of his arrow stabs the token
And shoot
As long as Ju Xiong safely brings the token back it's enough
no one comes into contact with the token throughout the whole journey and the beast cannot do anything to them
The first token is in our hands
Brother Zhang Ling, I finally know what your strength is
Is that you are smarter than me
Don't tease me
He has quite a knack for this
Brother Zhang Ling, you are quite something to even think of such a plan
Small thing
I'm sorry
It's alright
It looks like the three brothers are going to be forfeited
This ending is really surprising
Everyone gather around
Come and take a look
We've gotten one token
They have gotten 4 tokens
What? How can that be possible? It's true
We saw it with our own eyes. They've gone to get the rest of the tokens
Alright. Now, this token also belongs to us
Thanks for your hard work
Let's go
Please rest for a while. Once the second training is complete
You can leave then
The task you asked of me has been completed
Where is it?
It's over there. Everyone come with me
I've said this before. Getting the tokens is easy
What is difficult is sending the tokens out of the Tai Xu illusion safely
While Bu Fan was looking for the tokens, Long Ying Er created this map
while scouting the city To safely leave this place
What's most important is to lure the beast away
So, now we need two people to be the bait
Simply put, if one fails, the other
will replace him and finish the mission
Of course, we must make use of the 2 special characteristics of the beast
Firstly, if you don't have the token with you
The beast will not attack you
Secondly, though the beast is fast
Based on our experience, it is only quicker than us by a little
Once the two bait rushes out and runs towards the main streets
The beast will start to chase
When they meet, the bait will give the signal
At this point, those left in the house will receive the signal
And rush towards the Tai Xu entrance
Once the bait can no longer hold on, they will throw their bait away
Then, the beast will give up on them And start to chase those at the Tai Xu entrance
But, due to the long route
The beast will not be able to catch up with those at the entrance
Then, what will happen to the two bait
Simple. Pick up the token and rush to the entrance
Because this route is much closer compared to the route the beast will take
If there are no complications in the middle
All of us will have a chance to leave the Tai Xu illusion safely
This is a great idea
Brother Zhang Ling, you're so smart
Then let's choose two baits
Since I came up with this idea
I am willing to be one of the bait
Who else will be the second
I will be the second. This is extremely dangerous. You could die
don't be rash. I advice you to think it through carefully
Is anyone else willing?
I'm willing
Do I need to explain it to you again?
The role of the bait is to bid for time. You could be beaten into minced meat
Do you know that or not? I know
And you are still willing to go? Of course. This is my decision
you
Miss Fei Fei
I thought you aren't coming to the Wu Yue fairy alliance? Unless, you want to be the way seeker?
I don't want to be some way seeker
It's just that, it's my dad's wish for me to be the way seeker
So this is me trying to fulfill his wish
This journey can be considered as following my fate
Going where my heart takes me.
Your father? Who is he?
My father...is someone who sees his son too highly
Otherwise, I wouldn't be practicing the sword skill he taught me
I hope I will be able to use it when facing the beast later
You?
Forget it
Even though you are a little clever
But you cannot take on the beast
You should let me take your place as bait instead. No you can't
This is my idea. If others follow it
And something wrong happens, I will feel guilty about it
Besides, you are my beautiful memory
How can I let you face such danger
What...what beautiful memory
In this lifetime,
I hope to create many beautiful memories
Although we met by chance
But we have faced life and death together
Such a memory will forever be etched in my mind
Therefore,
I will not let anyone destroy it
Zhang Ling
It's time for us to leave
Miss Dong Huang, I thank you once again for saving my life
From now onwards, I'm willing to brave dangers for you
Should I even crease my forehead, I am not considered a good man
By braving this danger to be a bait, you're already repaying my kindness
It's not enough. To repay a life debt
I must use a lifetime
Ok. We will see after this trial
Prepare well and then leave
Be careful
Miss Dong Huang, I will not disappoint you
Are you prepared?
Let's go!
It's done
Zhang Ling, this is the Sound Arrow
Once you meet the beast, shoot it
We will quickly leave this illusion. You must be careful
We will try our best
Don't die
Let's go
Let's go back
Do you know why I don't want you to come? I know
You want someone with a higher cultivation than me so the chances of surviving is higher
So you've know all along? Of course. I also know
that if we want a token, we can steal and snatch
I just don't want to do that. I'm not stupid
It's just my choice. You've always chosen your path?
You can say that. Since I've chosen it, I must continue on my path
I like paths that are simple. But why must you choose to be a bait?
Don't you know that you can die?
Aren't we a team?
Doesn't that mean that we should suffer together?
A team? That simple?
Don't make it so complicated
Besides, a token that is won from a bet is not something I want
So I must give something during this training
Look there
Wait
We seem to have forgotten about a very important matter
How can we remember something that we have forgotten We are already here so we must persist on
Are you prepared?
Yes. Let's go
Everyone be prepared. Yes!
Why are you not running?
I find it weird. Why is it that his roars is getting closer
But we can't hear his footsteps?
I know what you have forgotten
The beast has wings
Be careful!
Quickly get rid of the token!
I can't believe I forgot such an important detail. My plan is ruined!
Even if it's ruined, think of another. They have pinned all their hopes on us
We must not give up
Do you have a plan?
No
But I now know your strength
It is that you are smarter than a lot of other people
I believe you can do it Zhang Ling
The beast can fly. Zhang Ling's plan is not effective anymore
Their predicament is very dangerous. Let's rescue them first before planning
We can't do that. 6 hours are almost up
If we rescue them now, we have no time to leave this place
Also,
we can't go against the beast
But they will die. Since they are willing to be the bait,
They should have expected such s situation to occur. Saving them now
Will sacrifice many others. Everyone may even get eliminated
Young master Qian Qiu, am I right?
You have your reasons
They did it for the sake of everyone
Even though Zhang Ling's cultivation is not high, his intellect is above average
Perhaps, he will find a way out. Let's wait a little longer
If we don't receive any news, the rest of you leave this place first I will go rescue them. Brother Kun Lun, I will go with you
I'm going too!
We will go too
Senior brother, we must look at the bigger picture. This is not a good plan
Don't say anymore. I've decided
Then I will go with you and rescue them
Can we use your Sky Splitting Sabre Draw skill?
The treasured stone has turned blue. it has cool down
Can be used
That's great
Then I will draw the attention of the beast toward me. You find the opportunity
Just cut down its wings. Although it can't be killed,
It can be injured. For it to recover will take some time
As long he can't fly. Our plan can get back on track
But! If I am to draw sabre, I can't use other skill
With you alone. How many moves can you handle? Just leave it to me
Handle one move at a time.
Don't forget
This is Tai Xu illusion
After being injured, it is recoverable.
As long as we don't die
We can have a chance to pass the test
But you remember that you have only one strike
Do not miss
Okay
You two idiots, faster draw your swords
Tie Lang Tie Lang use your sabre
No
I'm afraid that I might hurt you
Zhang Ling
That's too late. Others leave first
We will go to rescue
Mr. Qian Qiu
Fall back
Tie Lang
Are you okay?
Quick, release the sound arrow
They succeeded
As long as we lure the beast away
Zhang Ling and Tie Lang will still have the chance to complete the test
Everyone follow according to our original plan. Run towards the city gate
Go Go Go
Tie Lang. Hang on.
Tie Lang
I can't make it. My legs are maimed. I can't walk
Faster
Hold the token quickly.
Take the token away and leave me alone. Escape from this Tai Xu illusion. No!
I can't go anymore
My eyes
My eyes can't see anymore
Tie Lang
Tie Lang! Tie Lang!
Why is it gone?
Turn back quickly
I want to see how they are now
Everything is a foregone conclusion
Zhang Ling and Tie Lang absolutely cannot pass the trial
What else is there to look right?
What are you doing?
Sore losers
Did you forget your sworn oath?
We are willing to accept the lost
Is the tokens not on your side? However, we did not say
we won't snatch the tokens back. You!
Despicable
Mdm. Immortal
The Han's Three brothers are worthy to be your disciples
It's seems that your true skills are inherited
What's wrong with that?
They did not destroy the gambling agreement and no broken promise.
It's strategy.
Is the 6 hours limit up soon?
What? Want to snatch tokens back for them?
Come
Everyone calm down. The time is up.
Before the end of the 12th bell ring, we must leave the Tai Xu illusion
Let's deal with them later
Yun Qi is right
Besides, the beast is now chasing us. We can no longer stay
Help them get up
Let's go, too.
Is it Zhang Ling and Tie Lang.
Slow slow slower, a little slower
Slower.. slower..! Go forward go forward
Forward...! Forward..! Forward quickly
These two stupid guys lives are really tenacious.
Stop Stop and watch out
Obstacles in front
Right to right
You are a big stupid cow.
Tell you go forward
You just head to the wall
You don't know your left and right?
You don't know I can't see
Don't talk nonsense. Show the way
Forward
Forward, forward
Rise foot rise foot
You become smarter
You will be carrying me in the future
I can help you with knife
what future
when we get out of here, it will be better
Are you silly?
How do you become so smart now?
Zhang Ling and Tie Lang run quickly
City gates are getting closed
This is bad
The beast is coming
Door are closing
we have to go
Eldest Senior
Try to save Zhang Ling and Tie Lang
I will try my best
You aren't going to use the snow dragon, are you?
Should retain strength
Senior
This is
This is the power of Deity level
Alright
Kun Lun has tried his best
Next, it's up to them now
We leave quickly now
only last few bells left
let's go quickly
okay lets go
Fei-chan
I want to stay more for a while
Fei Fei
What can be done, is done.
Kun Lun and I won't leave without you.
Fei Fei
Let's go
I think now is progressing smoothly
Correct
Did you hear, the bell ring?
when the bell ring means that not much time is left
walk quickly go go go
Let's go
have you see them
The city gate is not yet closed
Go straight 300 steps
Fast, fast.
The city gate is on your right hand side
what is happening?
It's the beast
Run
Run fast Run
go go go
They finally made it through.
Beast is coming! Beast is coming
your eyes, you can see now
Then why are you not getting down?
My legs are fine
Great
Go
GO
Zhang Ling; Tie Lang
Your luck is really good
Luck?
We both spent a lot of effort
in order to come out, okay, Miss Fei Fei
Just call me Fei Fei in future
If it weren't for KunLun
The beast was frozen
You two
might be torn into two half long ago
Is it
Thank you, Brother KunLun
It's nothing
I'm just doing my job
If it weren't for your two heroes
How can we possibly
escape from the Tai Xu illusion smoothly
So, we should be the ones to say thank you.
Just leave it don't be so humble
We are even, even.
I thought it was too late for you both
Friend
Also a friend
My brother speaks sparsely
what he mean is
you guys will always be
good friends of Qing Yi Sect
and also friends of the Five Fairy Alliance.
yes
Everyone, please show your tokens
Zhang Ling; Tie Lang
here
Sixty five participants
pass through the second trial
It's good. It's to good. Its great
These youths
are the new generation of 5 alliance
High morale.
Whether their skills or intellects
can be considered top notch.
As for us, Phantom Reign has continuous drought
Morale is low. Dissident is high.
Facing such opponents
do we have a chance of winning?
My four elders
Is war with the mortal realm, the only way?
We understand what you really want
To find a way to cohabit with human, is also our wish.
Hope that the Queen doesn't give up
but we have decided.
To send the vanguards to mortal realm earlier than planned.
Elder Xiao
The Chance Calculator should be able to decipher the prophecy by Er Lang Shen
but i still need some time
Then please be quick.
Four days later, when the moon is full,
is the time when the vanguard will pass through the barrier.
and
We have decided to release the old demon from the blood prison
to be the commander of the vanguard.
This can't be done
No one can afford to disturb the old demon.
I have think of a way to control the old demon.
She will become the strongest weapon of Phantom Reign.
Huo WuYin
If you think the old demon can be controlled,
you must be mad
Since the wolf king pass the military rights to us
We will be careful.
Please be well assured.
You all remember this.
The old demon is the source of troubles for all 3 realms
You all will surely regret this.
If we lost the control over the old demon,
the consequence will be catastrophic
If we lose this battle
there won't be a 2nd chance.
Although it is risky,
we got to give it a try.
Hey, my Queen
I have watched that rascal.
His capability is not bad.
and a good luck to boost.
My Queen, what happened?
The 4 elders have decided to send the vanguard
and to remove the seal from old demon
Old demon?
They want to control the old demon
to be the commander of the vanguard.
Is it that... demon that rumored to have two thousand years of cultivation?
Then are they capable of controlling her?
I don't even dare to imagine.
If the demon is released,
I'm afraid the mortal realm is doomed.
and will also drag Phantom Reign into it
Queen
Can you tell the elders
that this is too risky
I'm afraid, there is nothing that i can do this time.
How can it be? You are the most respectable person in Phantom Reign
The citizens in Phantom Reign all listen to you.
Wolf King is off for training
The phantom ring that represent the highest authority
is in the hands of the elders
I'm afraid that this time, is out of my area of control
Queen
The 3rd trial begins now.
Inside the sack are stones of 5 colors black, white, red, blue, green
Please randomly pick one.
Can't imagine that such a small pebble
is more fearsome than the beast
Every time
is like fighting a battle of uncertainty
Vice leader, please
The result of 3rd trial is out.
Those that picked the red stone are disqualified.
Are to leave Tai Shan immediately
After so much hard work to pass the 2nd trial, only to be disqualified by a stone
It is not the stone that disqualified you but destiny.
One that lose to fate should accept it wholeheartedly
Don't go against the flow.
Leave the mountain now.
Do you need me to send you all off?
This is the end of 3rd trial.
65 Participants
5 disqualified
Left 60 people.
The fourth trial will be hosted by me - Lian BiXie
After watching the your performance in Tai Xu illusion.
One word.
Sub-standard
Such a boring trial
To spend 2 hours to complete will be considered unacceptable
You all actually spent 6 hours
and almost didn't make it.
This is SUB-STANDARD!
I hope that you all can perform well in this 4th trial
Don't disgrace your sect
Have your meal first
The 4th trial will start anytime
Anytime?
Vice leader Lian
What's the meaning of start anytime?
It means
it start anytime ah
Why are you in a daze?
Are you ok?
Fine.
It is like you lost your soul ever since you left the Tai Xu illusion
You are still afraid?
I also don't know what happened to me
I feel weird ever since i left that place.
Go, go, go
Tie Lang
Come and sit here
Give me a little bit more
Zhang Ling
coming
Faster eat and eat more.
Let me tell you.
That nefarious Lian BiXie, love to torture people.
We estimate that she will begin the 4th trial very soon so eat more.
Eat quickly.
Aren't you hungry, Tie Lang?
I am
Eat more. The trial will begin soon.
I'm going for 2nd filling
Let me help you
I'm going for more
What a facade
Are you talking to me?
Who else besides you?
Let me tell you
Our young master is very friendly and easy to mingle with
So I'm warning you
Don't get too near to our young master.
Or else you will get it from me.
They are all discussing
that in Tai Xu illusion, Kun Lun
has use skill that is of the Deity Level
Really?
If you ask me
it must be fake
Even our big brother
hasn't reach the Deity level
That Kun Lun....is not able
But that Mei
Mei Kong Yun has seen it.
So what
We three are united
Not afraid of anyone.
Right? Big brother.
Eat quickly
The 4th trial will begin at anytime.
We have waited for so long. Lian BiXie is toying with us
Patience!
Did you not hear that senior is asking you to bear with it.
Senior,
the only reason why Lian BiXie drag out the time
is to diminish our will
Bu Fan junior
Since you know her intent
don't fall into her trap and be disturbed
Senior
Now is 7pm
We have waited for 8 hours
Although we are quite full during lunch
we are very hungry now.
Why didn't she provide dinner?
Lian BiXie is whimsical with erratic behavior
Waiting
might be part of the trial
