(The Legend of ShenLi)

(Episode 33)

(I can't break through this barrier by force.)

(If not, Xing Zhi's body will suffer the repercussion.)

(He's such a bad egg.)

(He excels at casting formations.)

(But all formations)

(have an eye, which is the key to dispelling them.)

(Before this, Xing Zhi drew on this painting.)

(By doing so, he restored the crumbled rocks.)

(Could this barrier be related to the painting?)

Just now,

was that Master I saw?

Did Xing Zhi draw that in the painting?

Or was that a vision I saw in Sky's Beyond?

(This is...)

(Is that Xing Zhi?)

(No. He's acting abnormally.)

(Is this Xing Zhi from 1,000 years ago?)

(Is this Sky's Beyond after all of his kin and friends left?)

Sky's Beyond

is a cold place indeed.

Slow down!

Slow down!

Look at this brat.

Mother!

- Mother! - Come, let me hug you.

Mother!

Father, let me do it.

You're back.

- You're back. - Yeah.

I'm back.

Come inside.

Come.

Father, Mother.

(Life and death.)

(Born from nothingness, )

(return to nothingness.)

(That's all there is)

(for the life of a mortal.)

(Life and death exchange roles)

(as the cycle continues endlessly.)

(Every encounter is but an illusion.)

(It all ends as a delusion.)

(The Three Realms)

(are no fun.)

(What's the point)

(in watching over the Three Realms?)

(The ray of light that entered the painting)

(showed me the past.)

(Master, Xing Zhi.)

(The cracking of Sky's Beyond, )

(the collision of the mountains and meteors.)

(I'm sure Xing Zhi didn't leave behind)

(that ray of light on purpose.)

(That's a fissure that appeared due to the cracking of Sky's Beyond.)

(If it can show me the past, )

(could it be that the fissure was related to time?)

(If Xing Zhi didn't leave this behind, )

(I might be able to find a solution)

(using this fissure)

(and escape from this barrier.)

It's already been one day and one night.

Why hasn't this ghoul taken its form yet?

Is it because we lack offerings?

The Five-element Flame...

The Five-element Flame...

The Five-element Flame...

If we could inject the Five-element Flame...

That's right.

With the power of the five elements and the undying body of a phoenix,

we can create a vessel of infinite power!

Liu Yu, do you think we can give it a phoenix's body?

It's a perfect idea that we haven't thought of

before this.

By adding the feather of a phoenix to our current mix

and provide it with a flame ten times stronger,

it might be able to take its form.

The feather of a phoenix...

The feather of a phoenix!

The feather of a phoenix!

Come!

Provide it with all the Five-element Flame we have!

As long as I possess the power to control ghouls,

I will be fearless.

The Three Realms will be mine by then.

Burn!

Did we succeed?

It's fine!

It's fine!

Don't be scared!

Don't be scared!

You're safe here.

I won't hurt you.

He possesses such immense power

right after his creation.

He shall be the ghoul king.

In the future,

I can control all of the ghouls

no matter how many of them I create!

Master,

are you going to keep creating ghouls in the future?

Of course.

The Spiritual Realm will go to war with the Immortal Realm eventually.

By then, it'll be a majestic time for

the Spiritual Realm to rule over the Three Realms and create our own world.

Master,

he's different from other ghouls.

I think someone needs to tend to him.

I'm willing to look after him

and teach him ghoul techniques

so that

he can command other ghouls in the future.

That'll be great.

I can use this time to create other ghouls.

Take good care of him.

Teach him how to use his power as soon as possible.

As for his name,

you can decide that.

Yes, Master.

Feng

Lai...

In the future,

you shall be Feng Lai.

Feng Lai?

The ghoul king?

Why am I seeing this?

(This is bad. Xing Zhi is back.)

(If I want to leave using the time fissure, )

(I cannot tell Xing Zhi about this)

(so that he won't repair the crack.)

(It's best if I can persuade him)

(to set me free.)

I'm back.

Excellent.

If so, you should stop before it's too late.

Stop this nonsense.

Did the meteors from Sky's Beyond

damage the Spiritual Realm?

No.

That's for the best.

Now, Mo Fang is under Fu Sheng's control.

They're lurking in the dark.

His goal might still be Xutian Abyss.

We've wasted too much time in the Snowy Peak, the Eastern Sea,

and Sky's Beyond.

I have to return to the Spiritual Realm.

Is the tea too hot?

Aren't you going to try it?

Xing Zhi,

why are you trapping me here?

You know that I won't remain here forever

just to keep you company.

Why not?

You know the reason yourself.

All these years,

the Ancient Gods and I

kept warning each other

that there were many things we shouldn't do.

We should not do them,

and we cannot do them.

One wrong step,

and we'll plunge the entire world into chaos.

If our efforts are rewarded,

it gives the world a chance to exist longer.

But why must we float in the torrent dictated by Heaven?

Why must we protect the Three Realms?

Why must we follow the rules

dictated by Heaven?

If they granted me a godly body,

why did they grant me

a mortal heart?

If they wanted me to be emotionless,

why did they grant me the seven emotions and six desires?

They grant me indestructible power,

but they didn't grant me an indestructible heart.

Heaven,

was their intention truly for the Ancient Gods to protect the Three Realms?

All beings in the Three Realms

are like flowing water,

flowing gravel,

traveling clouds,

and floating dust.

What's there to cherish about?

So what if I don't protect the Three Realms?

Heaven and Earth are born from chaos.

And, they give birth to Ancient Gods.

Ancient Gods have supreme powers.

You're the last Ancient God.

Therefore...

I've listened to pompous words like yours

far too many times.

Don't try to persuade me.

I'm not trying to persuade you.

People see you as the last Ancient God in the world.

But to me...

I know you're a lonely person.

Ancient Gods possess supreme powers.

Heaven granted you incredible power.

At the same time, they granted you the seven emotions and six desires.

All your unhappiness,

anger,

meanness,

these emotions aren't something you can control.

That's not your fault.

Those are just your proof of existence.

I won't blame you for this.

It's because I trust you.

You have your own convictions to follow.

It's not that you cannot give in to your desires occasionally.

You have to accomplish the tasks you need to.

You have to say the things you need to say.

You have to throw a tantrum

when the situation calls for it

so that you won't waste our precious moments together.

Let's not drink tea.

Get us some liquor.

If Heaven is unfair to you, you can tell them off.

It has nothing to do with the beings of the Three Realms.

Get us some liquor. I'll tell them off together with you.

Heaven is heartless!

You guys are cold and heartless!

To hell with you, Heaven!

Why don't we seek Divine Lord out?

Is the heavenly thunder rumbling?

This is bad!

I'm sure Divine Lord did something he wasn't supposed to again!

That's why the heavenly thunder is rumbling!

This is bad!

Are you okay?

Heaven is so petty. It can't even withstand criticism.

How dare you try to strike down Divine Lord?

Try it again if you dare!

To hell with you, Heaven!

Great job!

Are you appeased now?

Yeah.

Xing Zhi,

I truly fancy you.

However,

I have to leave you.

You...

I think

I've repeated myself many times.

No.

Are you not willing to set me free

no matter what I say?

Let's drop the conversation.

Let's fight.

Sure.

Fine. Are we doing it for real?

Yes. We're doing it for real.

Here you go.

Take it.

You think that I can't bear to do it?

Unless you kill me.

If not, you won't be able to leave.

You can't bear to do it.

That's why

you should stop.

I'll get you something nice.

Wait for my return.

Wait for me.

There's a huge meteor over there.

This place looks quite strange.

Is this a formation from the Spiritual Realm?

It doesn't seem like it.

It's a huge meteor.

It made a huge hole.

Was someone caught in the collision?

It doesn't look like there's someone here.

Mo Fang?

Calm down.

Why would he be inside the formation?

They said that he betrayed his realm and colluded with their enemy.

Was that true?

He doesn't seem like the type.

Mo Fang, why are you choking me?

Have you lost your mind? I'm Lord Fu Rong!

Offering, you delivered yourself to my doorstep.

I'll use your powers to dispel the formation after killing you.

I'll see what you can do about it!

Lord Fu Rong.

Just leave.

He recognized me.

You won't find another immortal

as kind as me.

Listen up. If you try to hit me again after you wake up,

you'll be struck by the thunder.

He did spend a lot of effort in making these things.

Seems like there's no persuading him.

If I want to leave,

I have to think of a solution myself.

(I wonder if that ray of light)

(will appear on the paintings here.)

(Before this, )

(I'll see images of the past)

(whenever I touch the ray of light on the painting.)

(First, I saw Master.)

(After that, I saw Xing Zhi.)

(Right after that, I saw Liu Ming creating the ghoul king.)

(The images that were shown to me by the ray of light, )

(were they random?)

(Or was there a pattern behind it?)

(I'll use my powers to find out what the ray of light is.)

He looks like any ordinary person.

(Spiritual Realm, Feng Lai)

Everything's fine now.

Everything's fine now.

Nice to meet you, Feng Lai.

I'm Liu Yu.

Me.

Liu Yu.

Liu...

Yu...

That's right. I'm Liu Yu.

Do you want some tea?

This is tea.

Tea?

That's right.

Tea.

What kind of monster has Master created again?

Feng Lai!

Feng Lai, it's fine.

Everything's fine, Feng Lai.

This is preposterous!

He actually created a human-like ghoul!

Feng Lai!

Feng Lai!

It's fine.

It's fine, Feng Lai.

Everything's fine.

Everything's fine now.

Everything's fine now.

Everything's fine now.

Everything's fine.

Darned ghoul!

What's with that gaze of yours?

How dare you be upset with me?

Mu Yue?

Mu Yue, don't do it!

Darned ghoul! How dare you!

Mu Yue!

- Get out of my way! Don't stop me! - Feng Lai!

- Feng Lai! - Let go of me!

Feng Lai!

Feng Lai, you...

- Feng Lai! - Get out of my way!

Mu Yue!

Let's not hold it against him.

This is infuriating.

He's just a kid.

Mu Yue, there's no need to be angry at him.

That darned ghoul.

Do you still intend to help him create more ghouls?

Why don't you understand?

He said he created ghouls

so that the Spiritual Realm could defend against the Immortal Realm.

Actually, he's just doing it for his ambition.

The Immortal Realm already found out what he did.

He'll only land the Spiritual Realm in chaos

by doing so.

Mu Yue, don't worry.

I'll do my best to refine him.

I won't let him commit any misdeeds.

You're literally assisting the tyrant here.

Mu Yue?

Feng Lai!

If the gods and immortals can't stop him,

you'll be our last line of defense.

You should grow faster.

You can only command the ghouls

to protect innocent people

only when you're strong enough.

Only then will the Spiritual Realm

be truly prosperous

and magnificent.

Hopefully, creating you

isn't a mistake.

- Share it with me! - Be careful.

- Try and catch me! - Slow down.

Share it with me!

Be careful!

That's enough.

Share it with me!

Here, get up.

The Spiritual Realm

is gorgeous.

How did the breathing training go?

I could see distant places

when I utilize the power within me.

What did you see?

I saw something strange trapped within a cage.

And, I saw kids playing

by the river.

I also saw some beautiful forests

and the starry sky.

Liu Yu,

the Spiritual Realm is beautiful.

That's right.

The Spiritual Realm is beautiful indeed.

Let's go.

The growth of plants and trees

take several months

to several years.

The growth of spiritual beings

take several decades

to several centuries.

As for mountains and rivers,

they take millenniums to form.

The beauty of the Spiritual Realm isn't easy to come by.

Feng Lai.

That's why you have to cherish

the beauty of the Spiritual Realm at all times.

If so, Liu Yu,

were you nurtured by the mountains and rivers in the Spiritual Realm too?

- Of course. - If the Spiritual Realm is affected,

does that mean you'll be affected too?

I don't want you to be affected.

I wish to cherish you

and the Spiritual Realm.

I heard you coughing just now.

I'm fine.

Come.

You...

What are you doing?

Don't move.

During my breathing training,

I saw the people here doing this

to take care of those who are sick.

Do you feel better now?

(Oh my God!)

(How is he a ghoul?)

(Feng Lai is a kind soul.)

(How can I bear)

(to let him be a pawn in this game?)
