The Taoism Grandmaster
Episode 20
What's up?
Nothing.
I'm wondering
why didn't Zhang Ling and Tie Lang come for lunch?
Are you worried about them?
Me too.
Yes.
I'm a little worried.
Nonsense.
You just want to see how Zhang Ling and Tie Lang
are hit by Master of Berserk.
Yes.
But I am worried.
Everyone is supposed to see that.
So do I.
Me too.
Hello?
Zhang Ling and Tie Lang
have fought side by side with us.
Is it appropriate to say so?
You laughed yesterday.
Because it was out of sudden.
It was not real.
Today I won't laugh at them.
You are not supposed to laugh at them.
May I have your attention？
I have an idea.
No matter what do they look like today,
we shouldn't tease them.
Besides,
we should show our care and concern.
What do you think?
That's OK.
OK.
It's a deal.
Deal.
I am so sorry.
I'm not meant to laugh at you.
But.
Why are you laughing?
Laugh!
Yes.
It's good to laugh.
Let's laugh together.
In face of enemy,
laugh can ease our tension.
- Is that right? - Yes.
Let's laugh together.
Yes, let's laugh.
Let's laugh.
Laugh.
We must change our strategy
and fight against Master of Berserk.
Right.
So let's have more food today.
Two more steamed buns.
- Another bowl of rice. - Muddling Worm.
You're right on time.
I'm going to find her.
Who?
I'm figuring out how to deal with Master of Berserk.
So I ask you to eat more.
Then we will have strength.
Muddling Worm.
Is this the place you refer to?
The place is good.
Is that Zhang Ling?
Liuli.
Are you all right?
I'm OK.
What are you doing?
I have recovered from my injuries.
Your hand is hot.
Really?
Yes.
Your body is hot too.
What's wrong?
Why am I so hot?
Then you should put on more clothes.
I have already worn too many clothes.
I don't need more.
Should I take off my clothes?
Where are you going?
Fox is not supposed to wear clothes.
Why should I wear them?
What's the matter with you?
I have no idea.
It seems
that you let me drink
Without Afterlife.
It must be Wanshi.
Who is Wanshi?
Wait.
What are you doing?
Let go of me.
Well.
You like to tie me like this.
What are you doing?
Are you crazy?
Feel any better?
More sober?
I'm sober all the time, OK?
You look better now.
I have some important to ask you.
You have already known
that nine-tails fox is the commander of Wolf's World?
Yes.
Bai Qianji.
Why didn't you tell me that?
Why should I?
Can you handle her?
You are afraid
that I can't fight against her
and can't be the Taoism seeker.
Sort of.
How did you know that?
Nine-tails fox has declared war on Alliance of Five Great Mountains.
She said she would fight with competitors
for the first Saint Armor.
God of Mirror is finding her everywhere.
Once finding her,
the third round of the Taoism Trial Competition will begin.
I came to ask you
how to deal with her?
I don't know.
Why didn't you know?
Take out the Change of Destiny.
Then you can know everything,
Nine-tails fox can't be killed but sealed.
The Change of Destiny can't figure it out.
How can we handle this?
Release me.
Quickly.
Aren't you hot?
No.
I'm freezing cold.
Bai Qianji practices without any routine.
So, you need to hurry to start your practice.
I will find a way to handle her
as quickly as possible.
What do you think of my nestle?
I spent a lot of time to decorate it.
It's great.
Really?
It's suitable for relax.
There you are.
Such a good place
will become our home.
Liuli.
I can't leave Alliance for Five Great Mountains for too long.
I have to go back.
If you want to contact me,
ask Muddling Worm to find me. - You leave so soon.
Well.
I wait for you at home.
Greetings to your highness.
Liuli.
You look so thin.
Life is hard in the World of Man, isn't it?
I betrayed Bai Qianji
and became Zhang Ling's friend.
Bai Qianji won't let go of you.
There is no way out.
Otherwise, Zhang Ling would be killed by General Shadow.
Presbyters said General Shadow was dead.
Did you kill him?
I asked Zhang Ling to do so.
Demon of Fog
Demon of Snow
and Demon of Water
are all killed directly or indirectly by me.
Queen.
I killed so many companions of Wolf's World.
Liuli.
Have a seat.
I knew you were forced to do so.
If you can find the Taoism Seeker,
the scourge between mortals and Wolf's World
can be avoided.
Then what you have done
is worthy.
By the way.
How is Zhang Ling?
Will he become the Taoism Seeker?
Although my Magical Purple Eyes
can't predict Zhang Ling's future.
I become more confident of him.
I believe he will become the Taoism Seeker.
I believe so.
Your Majesty.
I want to know
how can we kill Bai Qianji?
If Bai Qianji can be killed,
Wolf's World needn't to seal her in the Blood Cell.
That is my question.
Why can we seal her
but can't kill her?
She can't be killed.
If we kill Bai Qianji,
her Core must be destroyed.
But in her Core,
there is a Space Cracking.
If the Core is destroyed,
all things and the entire universe
will be engulfed by the Space Cracking.
Then the sky and the earth will destroyed.
That's horrible.
Will presbyter of Wind's Spell of Heart Devouring work?
It can control her for a short time.
If you think this can control her,
it is just starting a fire and burning yourself.
We can't kill Bai Qianji,
but we can defeat her.
Only if we cut off
one of her nine tails.
Her fighting capacity will be decreased.
Her recovery
will take a long time.
However
It is not an easy thing.
I know to defeat her is not easy.
But now
we have known her weakness.
Liuli.
I'm going to die.
If we must go through it
You needn't feel sorry for that.
Now that you have chosen your path,
You should follow it.
Got it.
Take care, Queen.
Thanks.
Today's special training
is divided into two groups.
First Group.
Yun Qi.
Feifei.
Budong.
Xiao Yu.
Xia Yu.
Jiu Yue.
Jiu Ri.
Master.
They are in the first group.
The second group?
Only you.
Master.
Senior Disciple's strength is undoubtable.
But fighting against odds
is unfair for him.
Do you think
you can defeat Kun Lun?
Then you defeat him in front of me.
This is the aim of first special training.
Master.
What's my aim?
Your aim is to defeat them.
Got it.
Kun Lun, you figure out your strategy.
OK.
I repeat it again.
Your goal is to defeat Kun Lun
with firm determination.
Dad.
Is it necessary?
Kun Lun's immortal technique has reached the state of spirit
But his cultivation is limited.
He can't have a breakthrough in a short time.
The only way is
to let him learn from his failure.
Strengthen his weakness as soon as possible.
In special training, you can
apply all you have learned.
Understand?
Yes.
OK.
You deploy the strategy.
Yun Qi.
After the special training,
come to White Cloud Cave.
Yes.
You hear all what Master said.
But, can we defeat Senior Disciple?
Try our best.
I have practiced with Senior Disciple for many years.
What's the weakness of Senior Disciple?
Say it freely.
Feifei, you first.
I think I am sort of betraying Senior Disciple.
OK.
Every time he uses strength of the State of Spirit
his recovery is slow.
Very good.
What else?
He must want to win.
So he will forestall the enemy
and use techniques.
I think,
this is a chance for us to win.
the attack will focus on the front.
the left and right sides are weak.
Great.
OK.
Let's discuss how to handle Senior Disciple.
Xia Yu.
Take care.
Go.
Stop.
Senior Disciple, are you OK?
Fei, I'm OK.
Get up!
The first group ended.
I lost.
Now the second group.
It is so soon.
Yes.
It's the rule.
Get ready for it.
Are you OK?
We are OK.
But we want to practice more.
Have a rest first.
Master.
No, let's continue.
Haste makes waste.
Let's have a break.
I will join you later.
Are we not very talented?
We disappointed our Master.
Who dare to say Huang Gong brothers
are not talented?
For example, Han Shang
after ten years of cultivation
has reached top in the state of Qi.
Just one step to the state of Spirit.
Among all the disciples of
the Alliance of Five Great Mountains
and the Immortals' World,
almost no one can be comparable to you.
There's only one step.
But it takes a lot to practice hard.
The key lies in karma.
If karma doesn't arrive,
no matter how hard you try,
You can't make a breakthrough.
But Master.
Do you want to give up?
I know I'm not gifted.
But my brother
is the promise of Heavenly Music Palace.
He must become the Taoism Seeker.
Yes. Master.
You should focus on training brother.
I practice with Xiao Yu.
Wang Wei.
Come out!
Where is Wang Wei?
Have you seen Wang Wei?
There are only four of us.
Do you see that I am teaching my disciples?
Why are you shouting here?
You.
Wang Wei
during the training,
can't be found anywhere.
I want to ask him
if he respect me or not.
You search for
that brat and see where he is.
I'm not a brat.
My name is Wang Wei.
I'd like to call you brat.
So what?
You didn't obey God of Mirror's words
to join the special training.
So I can beat you.
I can also eliminate you.
I don't think your special training is good for me.
So I didn't participate.
Wang Wei.
How could you talk to your Master like this?
Standing in front of you
is the vice chief of Alliance for Five Great Mountains.
I only respect those who deserve it.
Whether you are the chief or not
is meaningless for me.
Bastard.
How can you say that?
Say sorry to my Master.
I'm sorry, the vice chief.
Wang Wei is solitary and unsociable.
He's not meant to offend you.
None of your business.
I'm not eccentric.
I just don't want to get together with you.
Are you sure to be hostile to us?
Brat.
You are so arrogant.
All right.
If you can fight with me
and remain safe and sound.
Then you can go everywhere.
I won't care.
Come on.
Flame.
No.
What if he will be wounded.
Can I go now?
Qian Qiu.
Take care of your Master.
Don't let him lose face in public.
Got it.
Master.
Why did Wang Wei become so fierce?
Wang Wei practice Secret of Clouds of Swordsmanship of South Sea School.
It absorbs enemy's strength to boost himself.
Just now Master of Flame was injured by
his own magical arts.
He just swallow the bitter pill himself.
Anyway.
His Secret of Swordsmanship has reached limits.
I think he has arrived at the state of Spirit.
That is to say,
Among competitors,
there are two people reaching the state of Spirit.
Dose our bother can be the Taoism Seeker?
It is more difficult.
Master.
I want to practice again.
Come on.
Let's continue.
Senior.
Are you all right?
The inner Qi took the wrong route.
I will be OK after a break.
Master.
Other competitors are practicing
the strength of their attack.
Why did we waste our time
to practice Qi.
I can't figure it out.
Bu Fan.
Master.
Never doubt.
Practice.
Continue to practice.
Senior said we shouldn't doubt what Master has taught us.
Bu Fan.
Continue to practice.
Master is wrong.
I am suspicious.
Bu Fan.
You are irreverent.
Say sorry.
Bu Fan.
Say sorry to our Master.
Why should I? I'm not wrong.
You.
Well.
You are good friends.
Why did you quarrel?
It's my fault.
I didn't say it clearly.
Actually.
This practice of Qi
is Sword School's secret technique.
It is the preparation of Shadow Walk.
Your cultivation of magical arts is great.
Coupled with Shadow Walk,
Your cultivation maybe improved.
Bu Fan.
Did you hear it?
You mistook our Master.
Master.
I'm sorry.
That's all right.
But you must remember
that people of Sword School must respect each other
and shouldn't hurt each other.
You got it.
OK. Continue to practice Qi.
Tomorrow morning
I will teach you Shadow Walk.
Thank you, Master.
Ju Xiong.
Sneak attack.
Beat me?
You want to hit in my face?
Let me tell you.
I'm on alert this time.
Yes.
Treat us like a sick?
Come on!
What's other techniques?
Come on!
Basic techniques have been practiced.
Not talented.
I can't expect too much.
Let's get started.
Start?
You give me fruits and cakes.
I won't let you down.
Divide.
Two complementary forces generate four aggregates.
Four aggregates generate eight trigrams.
You are practicing Taoism.
Do you know it?
Whatever, we can fight.
It's different this time.
Cover your eyes.
What?
To what extent do you want
to trick us?
This is not the cultivation.
You just play tricks on us.
We won't cover eyes.
I just like to see
you play monkey shows to me.
So what?
Obey rules or be eliminated.
Cover
or not?
Well.
Zhang Ling.
Don't cover eyes.
Men can take setbacks.
Let's cover our eyes.
I don't believe
I can't defeat eight balls.
Today's humiliation will be repaid.
OK.
I will wait.
Master.
What's the matter?
Yun Qi.
Do you want to be the Taoism Seeker?
No.
Why?
In Yun Qi's heart,
only Kun Lun is qualified
to become the Taoism Seeker.
He joined the Taoism Trial Competition.
He just want to witness
Senior's becoming a successful competitor.
This is the only hope of Yun Qi.
So does Master.
So does Alliance for Five Great Mountains,
Immortals' World
and men's World.
Do you know
Kun Lun is not only the name for your Senior.
but also his responsibility.
I got it.
OK.
The new rounds of the Taoism Trial Competition
become risky.
It is not easy for him to compete.
So I hope you
can do one thing for Kun Lun.
But it is OK
if you don't want to.
Master, please.
I hope when competing,
you can walk ahead of Kun Lun.
I mean
You serve as the vanguard for him
and kill the enemy for him.
When necessary,
you must sacrifice for him.
Help him compete the task successfully.
Are you willing to do so?
If not,
you can decline me.
I won't blame on you.
Senior always says
without Master,
there will be no Kun Lun.
But for me,
without Kun Lun,
there is no Yun Qi.
If Kun Lun didn't
save me from demon's mouth,
I can't survive.
So, I can sacrifice for him.
OK.
Look.
This is the new swordsmanship I created, Tearing the sky
I've never taught others.
The principle is simple.
But one should apply it with heart.
It is not easy.
Now I teach you this swordsmanship
to improve your sword techniques.
Thank you, Master.
Senior.
Look.
Elixir of Healing Qi.
Let me check it.
Master told me
that he let Ju Xiong to take it.
Today Senior got inner injuries.
He will practice Shadow Walk tomorrow.
He will suffer from the pain.
So.
Take it and recover injuries.
Master favors Senior
You are not the wounded one.
But,
it is Elixir of Healing Qi.
It is precious.
So Ju Xiong should take it.
You favor him.
Why not marry him?
Three pieces.
Let's swallow them.
Elixir of Healing Qi.
I will ask Master for another one.
Bye.
Stubborn.
Ju Xiong.
Take it.
It spoils my appetite.
You are waiting for me?
Not you.
I just have a rest here.
I'm so self-sentimental.
You are not waiting for me.
You hate me so much.
What will you do?
The competition is coming.
We should practice more.
It's not the time to relax.
What's the progress?
It's very rapid.
Better than the group of Master of Flame.
How did you know that?
Did you peep at me?
Of course not.
I didn't.
Yes.
I saw it.
I was just curious.
Curious?
I think you acted in no good faith.
Now that you don't like me,
I'd better not talk about it.
Go ahead.
Maybe I can change my view towards you.
From the start,
I saw you competing by yourself.
I think it's not easy for you.
Honestly,
You are not powerful.
You don't believe others.
You want find a powerful backer
but disdained by others.
I feel the same experience as you.
So I wanted to know
your mission at that time,
which put you under great pressure.
But you don't care about it.
You are the first to say these words.
I hope you will be powerful soon
and take care of your naive brothers.
You too.
Survive the last round.
I don't know
why you were obedient to Master of Berserk.
We covered our eyes
and let she play tricks on us.
Do you hear me?
What are you thinking?
I'm thinking
we coordinated well with each other.
Our swordsmanship has improved.
Yes.
Look at your face
and mine.
I mean before covering eyes,
Our swordsmanship improved indeed.
Especially when we dealt with
four balls.
Because we used
concentrated attack strategy.
So we are better than one.
You are right.
That makes sense.
Where are you going?
Find a place to practice sword.
Me too.
Ask Yun Qi to teach me to control the Qi of sword.
Who?
Yun Qi, it's me.
Are you practicing magical arts?
It's you.
No. I am not practicing that,
but new swordsmanship.
It seems simple,
but it is hard to apply it.
However, it is very powerful.
Simple but powerful.
What is it?
Tell me.
New swordsmanship created by Master.
Mental cultivation methods are secrets.
All right.
But I can tell you the philosophy.
Inner Qi is divided into Yin and Yang.
Swordsmanship is to coordinate Yin and Yang
at the highest speed possible.
Apply Yin and Yang
to the face of the sword.
It vibrates at high speed.
It looks like motionless,
but it can break rocks into pieces.
It sounds simple.
But
is it really powerful?
I saw it before.
But I didn't grape the techniques.
Yun Qi.
I will not bother you.
I'm going to make practices.
OK.
Three days later, we will have the competition.
I hope to see your progress.
I knew my strength well.
I have no expectations at all.
Let's work together.
OK.
Goodbye.
Bye.
At the fastest speed, Yin and Yang alternate
and Qi is all on sword.
Then it can cut rocks.
Is it really that magical?
Watch carefully.
Try again.
The fragrance of your wine betrayed you.
Come and sit.
Drink.
Come on.
Since the Taoism Trial Competition started,
we moved to the Learning Dorm.
But it is comfortable to live in our own house.
What's up?
Are you still feeling bad for being defeated.
On the contrary,
I'm still lingering on that feeling.
That's really great.
Seriously?
Yes.
First.
You are so strong.
The fellow disciples I taught
have become stronger.
I felt very happy.
That makes sense.
Then?
Second.
After being defeated,
I found my shortcomings.
So I should make improvement.
That feeling is great.
Because if you rectify shortcomings,
you will be stronger.
Yes.
Failure is a process,
not an outcome.
Master's special training works for you.
Cheers.
Well.
Where are Zhang Ling and Tie Lang?
I have conveyed
your comments on magical arts to them.
They are trying to improve it.
Really?
Great.
Zhang Ling and Tie Lang's
cultivation is not that good.
But I think they have huge potential.
Are you worried that one day
they may surpass you?
I'm not.
If someone is chasing you,
you can run faster.
That's true.
Cheers.
To handle the third round of Taoism Trial Competition,
you have trained for seven days.
This time, the task is easy.
But I hope you can exert your strength.
Let other competitors see your strength.
Those who left behind others
don't be disappointed.
Strive to work hard in the days to come.
For those who take the lead in the training,
Don't be conceited.
You should practice harder.
Then you can break all barriers ahead.
Understand?
Yes!
The competition starts now.
Get ready.
Lady Undead.
Didn't you sleep well?
Yes.
The three brothers always ask me to practice with them.
I'm exhausted.
It seems that their cultivation
improves greatly.
Look!
What is it?
Come here.
Qian Qiu.
What are you selling?
I'm not selling something.
It is the treasure of the Untrammeled School.
Immortal Technique Tester.
Technique Tester?
It can test every cultivator's
cultivation and class.
Tian Xin.
Introduce it.
OK.
Look at the scale.
The scale this side
is divided into Qi and Spirit channels.
it has five states.
This side.
From one to five,
it has five classes.
That is to say,
The state of Qi also has five classes.
Is it really magical?
We can make a ranking list of competitors.
I'm feel my pressure.
Yes.
That's exciting.
Little kids will do that.
All competitors,
competition begins now.
Everyone must join
without order or formation.
The assessment is very simple.
Hit the test stone with your techniques.
The test stone is hard.
Breaking it up is not easy.
So everyone, show your best skills.
OK.
Who is the first one?
Senior Disciple.
The first one.
Han Yu.
Not me.
It's my brother Han Shang.
Brother.
You are the first.
Go.
The first one,

Great.

The interesting part is yet to come.

Not so bad.
Brother.

Brother.
I knew
You are the greatest one.
You made it.
Yes.
Of course.
Han Shang's step is so fast.
Do you have confidence?
