00:11:00,700 --> 00:11:05,350
You need only sit in meditation, activate your heavenly crown,
188
00:11:06,100 --> 00:11:07,630
and wait quietly.
189
00:11:08,770 --> 00:11:09,630
Understood.
190
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:16,720
[Yuan Che, Ri Gui, Yin Liunian, Di Zhiyuan]
191
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,200
[Tian Wuya, Yang Chi, Xing Hecan, Yue Langning]
192
00:11:19,460 --> 00:11:20,710
How do I activate my heavenly crown?
193
00:11:21,610 --> 00:11:23,110
Do I just sit here?
194
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:47,560
[Mu Nisheng, disciple of Heaven Palace]
195
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:48,480
[An Xue, disciple of Yin Palace]
196
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,240
[Ye Ruling, disciple of Yin Palace]
197
00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:54,400
[Yue Chuhui, Young Mistress of Moon Palace]
198
00:12:03,730 --> 00:12:05,080
Wasn't I just here to make up the numbers?
199
00:12:06,220 --> 00:12:07,590
Who bought me a debut spot?
200
00:12:10,770 --> 00:12:13,320
There must be a mistake. If even I am not chosen,
201
00:12:13,770 --> 00:12:15,750
how is that three-spiritual-root loser qualified?
202
00:12:15,770 --> 00:12:17,280
I, the loser, would like to know that, too!
203
00:12:22,610 --> 00:12:23,110
Mother...
204
00:12:27,860 --> 00:12:28,510
Master!
205
00:12:34,100 --> 00:12:34,990
Tingyan,
206
00:12:35,700 --> 00:12:37,200
I heard you were chosen.
207
00:12:37,610 --> 00:12:39,990
I am truly pleased
208
00:12:40,010 --> 00:12:41,750
and honored as your master.
209
00:12:42,820 --> 00:12:44,750
- Since Serene Vale's founding... - Stop.
210
00:12:45,460 --> 00:12:46,160
Didn't you say
211
00:12:46,180 --> 00:12:47,630
I was only there to make up the numbers?
212
00:12:47,650 --> 00:12:49,000
How did I end up chosen?
213
00:12:49,340 --> 00:12:50,710
Can you report this to the higher-ups?
214
00:12:50,710 --> 00:12:51,520
I don't want to go.
215
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:52,900
Plenty would kill for this job offer.
216
00:12:53,410 --> 00:12:54,280
What do you mean by "kill"?
217
00:12:55,130 --> 00:12:56,280
In short, I am happy to give it
218
00:12:56,300 --> 00:12:57,080
to someone else.
219
00:12:59,220 --> 00:13:01,110
But Serene Vale is only a minor branch
220
00:13:01,130 --> 00:13:02,710
within the Four Seasons Palace.
221
00:13:03,060 --> 00:13:04,750
Being selected is such a great honor.
222
00:13:05,370 --> 00:13:06,800
How could we refuse?
223
00:13:07,100 --> 00:13:07,680
Besides,
224
00:13:09,010 --> 00:13:11,280
this decision was made jointly by Sect Master Shi
225
00:13:11,300 --> 00:13:12,630
and the eight palace heads.
226
00:13:12,730 --> 00:13:14,440
It cannot be changed.
227
00:13:15,010 --> 00:13:15,990
Even in the cultivation world,
228
00:13:16,010 --> 00:13:17,630
people are forced to compete?
229
00:13:17,650 --> 00:13:19,510
I just want to be a pretty good-for-nothing.
230
00:13:20,370 --> 00:13:22,230
Besides, I know nothing about this place.
231
00:13:22,410 --> 00:13:24,680
What if I offend the Grandmaster?
232
00:13:24,700 --> 00:13:26,630
If he is displeased, I can't handle the consequences.
233
00:13:28,530 --> 00:13:29,680
Don't worry.
234
00:13:29,860 --> 00:13:31,200
Though I have never met
235
00:13:31,220 --> 00:13:32,390
the Lord of Mercy,
236
00:13:32,610 --> 00:13:33,920
his title suggests
237
00:13:35,010 --> 00:13:37,840
leniency and kindness.
238
00:13:38,460 --> 00:13:39,960
If you do not wish to serve him,
239
00:13:40,490 --> 00:13:41,960
he likely will give you a hard time.
240
00:13:43,220 --> 00:13:44,840
The Three Saints Mountain is rich in spiritual energy.
241
00:13:45,130 --> 00:13:47,590
Going there will surely improve your cultivation.
242
00:13:48,770 --> 00:13:49,960
A promotion and a raise
243
00:13:49,980 --> 00:13:51,800
mean nothing to me.
244
00:13:52,410 --> 00:13:53,440
I just want good food, good drink,
245
00:13:53,460 --> 00:13:54,470
and to get by quietly.
246
00:13:58,250 --> 00:13:59,110
Congratulations, Junior Sister!
247
00:14:00,010 --> 00:14:01,990
- Congratulations! - Congratulations, Sister Liao!
248
00:14:02,010 --> 00:14:03,630
- Congratulations. - You bring great honor to our branch.
249
00:14:03,730 --> 00:14:04,960
[Bai Zhu, disciple of Serene Vale]
This is our gift to you.
250
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:05,410
Yes.
251
00:14:05,770 --> 00:14:06,590
Why does it sound
252
00:14:06,610 --> 00:14:08,470
like everyone's counting on me?
253
00:14:09,580 --> 00:14:11,350
Now I'm really stressed.
254
00:14:11,370 --> 00:14:12,440
Don't be.
255
00:14:12,460 --> 00:14:13,680
Enough. Back up.
256
00:14:15,410 --> 00:14:17,870
Stop giving her more pressure.
257
00:14:20,410 --> 00:14:22,320
Tingyan, you being selected
258
00:14:22,730 --> 00:14:24,350
has already brought honor to Serene Vale.
259
00:14:25,180 --> 00:14:25,800
Given
260
00:14:26,100 --> 00:14:27,870
your low cultivation level
261
00:14:28,100 --> 00:14:29,630
and your reluctance to serve the Grandmaster,
262
00:14:30,610 --> 00:14:32,040
he will probably
263
00:14:32,300 --> 00:14:33,590
send you back before long.
264
00:14:34,060 --> 00:14:35,590
So there is no KPI?
265
00:14:37,220 --> 00:14:38,040
What?
266
00:14:40,010 --> 00:14:40,710
All right, then.
267
00:14:43,770 --> 00:14:46,080
Well, I cannot return to reality anyway.
268
00:14:47,860 --> 00:14:50,230
A temporary break from the daily grind
269
00:14:50,490 --> 00:14:51,470
might not be so bad.
270
00:15:15,530 --> 00:15:16,800
So this is the Three Saints Mountain.
271
00:15:20,010 --> 00:15:21,710
Why do I not see anything?
272
00:15:25,580 --> 00:15:26,840
How could you, a mere three-spiritual-root
273
00:15:27,300 --> 00:15:28,390
grasp the sanctity
274
00:15:28,410 --> 00:15:29,200
of the mountain?
275
00:15:30,130 --> 00:15:31,800
Three saints once ascended here.
276
00:15:32,340 --> 00:15:34,350
Since the Lord of Mercy entered seclusion,
277
00:15:34,940 --> 00:15:36,230
it has been closed for 500 years,
278
00:15:36,580 --> 00:15:37,630
with no one entering.
279
00:15:38,580 --> 00:15:42,080
Sounds like a hidden megadungeon in a game.
280
00:16:17,410 --> 00:16:18,750
What's going on?
281
00:16:22,130 --> 00:16:24,200
Grandmaster, please quell your anger.
282
00:16:25,410 --> 00:16:27,110
Please quell your anger, Grandmaster.
283
00:16:27,460 --> 00:16:28,870
Please quell your anger, Grandmaster.
284
00:16:29,370 --> 00:16:32,870
When I come out, you will all die.
285
00:16:35,220 --> 00:16:35,680
Wait.
286
00:16:37,100 --> 00:16:38,390
Are we sure this is
287
00:16:38,410 --> 00:16:39,870
a righteous grandmaster,
288
00:16:40,700 --> 00:16:41,840
not one from the Demon Realm?
289
00:16:42,250 --> 00:16:43,440
This Lord of Mercy
290
00:16:43,980 --> 00:16:45,110
doesn't sound merciful at all.
291
00:16:45,490 --> 00:16:46,680
Five hundred years have passed,
292
00:16:47,340 --> 00:16:49,440
yet the Grandmaster has grown even more brutal.
293
00:16:50,060 --> 00:16:51,080
What should we do?
294
00:16:51,580 --> 00:16:52,960
If we cannot calm the Grandmaster,
295
00:16:53,700 --> 00:16:54,560
the Gengchen Celestial Palace,
296
00:16:54,580 --> 00:16:56,350
a great sect for hundreds of thousands of years,
297
00:16:56,770 --> 00:16:57,800
may end
298
00:16:57,820 --> 00:16:58,870
in our generation.
299
00:16:59,220 --> 00:17:02,510
Grandmaster, I, Shi Qianlv,
300
00:17:02,610 --> 00:17:06,040
have brought 100 disciples today
301
00:17:06,650 --> 00:17:08,240
to serve you in the mountain.
302
00:17:09,820 --> 00:17:10,720
Enter.
303
00:17:13,500 --> 00:17:14,080
Nisheng,
304
00:17:14,860 --> 00:17:17,190
you are the most outstanding of my disciples.
305
00:17:17,930 --> 00:17:21,040
The Heaven Palace is counting on you.
306
00:17:21,450 --> 00:17:22,720
Understood, Master.
307
00:17:24,860 --> 00:17:27,040
So in the cultivation world, when the boss gets angry,
308
00:17:27,130 --> 00:17:28,480
the employees start bleeding?
309
00:17:29,340 --> 00:17:30,480
I should probably not go.
310
00:17:39,340 --> 00:17:39,910
Let's go.
311
00:17:42,210 --> 00:17:43,480
I've lost something.
312
00:17:45,610 --> 00:17:46,910
Where did it go?
313
00:17:52,370 --> 00:17:54,390
What are you looking for? I will help you look.
314
00:17:54,890 --> 00:17:57,110
You're too kind. I can find it myself.
315
00:18:06,060 --> 00:18:08,870
Oh, my stomach... It hurts so much.
316
00:18:11,970 --> 00:18:13,480
I'm going to faint.
317
00:18:15,370 --> 00:18:17,190
Ow... My stomach...
318
00:18:17,730 --> 00:18:18,600
Get up there first.
319
00:18:18,970 --> 00:18:19,590
It hurts.
320
00:18:20,540 --> 00:18:21,350
It really hurts.
321
00:18:24,170 --> 00:18:24,720
All right.
322
00:18:25,210 --> 00:18:26,950
I'm fine now. I can walk on my own.
323
00:18:45,930 --> 00:18:50,080
This Grandmaster is living in such a vile place.
324
00:18:58,300 --> 00:19:02,000
Is he practicing some kind of demonic art?
325
00:19:02,540 --> 00:19:05,040
Aunt-Master, this place is frightening.
326
00:19:05,370 --> 00:19:06,670
[Qian Mo, disciple of Heaven Palace]
Should we really keep going?
327
00:19:07,500 --> 00:19:08,870
Before we entered, Master Tian told me
328
00:19:09,170 --> 00:19:10,280
there was a barrier in the mountain.
329
00:19:10,690 --> 00:19:11,910
If you leave rashly,
330
00:19:11,930 --> 00:19:12,950
you will anger the Grandmaster
331
00:19:13,410 --> 00:19:14,670
and be swallowed by the barrier.
332
00:19:14,970 --> 00:19:16,800
If you're tired of living, go ahead and run.
333
00:19:24,740 --> 00:19:25,350
A snake!
334
00:19:26,860 --> 00:19:27,640
How terrifying!
335
00:19:34,580 --> 00:19:35,350
Please wait.
336
00:19:40,450 --> 00:19:41,080
Senior,
337
00:19:41,740 --> 00:19:43,520
we disciples are here to greet the Grandmaster.
338
00:19:43,970 --> 00:19:46,430
We are new here. Please guide us.
339
00:20:15,060 --> 00:20:15,720
Come on.
340
00:20:21,860 --> 00:20:25,430
They're actually following it? No way I'm doing this job.
341
00:20:32,690 --> 00:20:33,840
How bold.
342
00:20:48,970 --> 00:20:50,720
Those people are too brave.
343
00:20:51,020 --> 00:20:52,910
They couldn't leave, so they followed a snake.
344
00:20:53,300 --> 00:20:55,480
Good thing this world has no time clock.
345
00:20:56,170 --> 00:20:58,150
No one will notice I've skipped out.
346
00:21:07,930 --> 00:21:08,840
What the...?
347
00:21:14,890 --> 00:21:18,080
Demonic energy? She is from the Demon Realm.
348
00:21:18,690 --> 00:21:20,560
Who's there? I can see you.
349
00:21:25,410 --> 00:21:26,870
Clueless fool.
350
00:21:49,540 --> 00:21:51,480
This is too creepy. I am going back.
351
00:22:09,260 --> 00:22:09,840
Let's go.
352
00:22:20,100 --> 00:22:21,000
In horror movies,
353
00:22:21,170 --> 00:22:22,840
the first to die is always the one alone.
354
00:22:23,930 --> 00:22:25,240
I should stay with the group.
355
00:23:03,820 --> 00:23:04,870
The tower is so high.
356
00:23:05,650 --> 00:23:07,350
But there's not even an elevator?
357
00:23:51,060 --> 00:23:51,760
Blood!
358
00:24:10,260 --> 00:24:12,240
What a bunch of fools.
359
00:24:13,970 --> 00:24:14,840
Greetings, Grandmaster.
360
00:24:16,170 --> 00:24:18,110
Greetings, Grandmaster.
361
00:24:35,340 --> 00:24:36,910
The Grandmaster's feet
362
00:24:37,210 --> 00:24:38,760
are incredibly well-cared-for.
363
00:24:39,860 --> 00:24:41,190
So smooth and soft.
364
00:24:41,820 --> 00:24:43,520
I wonder if his face is the same.
365
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:29,200
[Sima Jiao]
366
00:25:30,450 --> 00:25:32,190
This centuries-old Grandmaster
367
00:25:32,970 --> 00:25:34,800
is actually a pretty boy?
368
00:26:07,610 --> 00:26:08,080
You.
369
00:26:10,540 --> 00:26:11,840
Why have you come here?
370
00:26:12,130 --> 00:26:14,480
[Yu Rongrong, disciple of Moon Palace]
I wish to serve you, Grandmaster.
371
00:26:17,130 --> 00:26:18,000
Liar.
372
00:26:23,580 --> 00:26:25,350
How can someone so fair-skinned
373
00:26:25,540 --> 00:26:27,040
have such a bad temper?
374
00:26:27,260 --> 00:26:29,560
He's like a landmine ready to explode.
375
00:26:35,580 --> 00:26:37,320
Do not come near me.
376
00:26:53,370 --> 00:26:56,190
You. What is your name?
377
00:26:57,890 --> 00:27:00,390
I am Wan Ling. I worship you, Grandmaster,
378
00:27:00,740 --> 00:27:01,760
and wish to serve you.
379
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:03,840
[Wan Ling, disciple of Yin Palace]
380
00:27:08,500 --> 00:27:10,520
That wasn't Junior Sister Wan Ling. Who was she?
381
00:27:11,100 --> 00:27:12,840
How dare she enter disguised as Wan Ling?
382
00:27:13,020 --> 00:27:14,150
What did she want?
383
00:27:19,970 --> 00:27:21,800
He seems to be looking at me.
384
00:27:22,370 --> 00:27:25,000
Please, Grandmaster, just ignore me.
385
00:27:25,580 --> 00:27:27,280
Here is someone even bolder.
386
00:27:27,930 --> 00:27:29,910
How am I bold?
387
00:27:30,450 --> 00:27:33,800
I have done nothing, Grandmaster.
388
00:27:38,370 --> 00:27:39,110
Look at me.
389
00:27:48,930 --> 00:27:50,520
Open your eyes and look at me.
390
00:27:54,020 --> 00:27:56,140
You're still trying to play tricks?
391
00:27:58,370 --> 00:27:59,950
I've done nothing, Grandmaster.
392
00:28:03,060 --> 00:28:03,840
The Spirit Fire...
393
00:28:19,100 --> 00:28:20,080
All of you, get out.
394
00:28:27,690 --> 00:28:28,240
Out!
395
00:28:39,890 --> 00:28:42,320
The Grandmaster seems to have lost his mind.
396
00:28:42,780 --> 00:28:44,280
In fact, he's pure madness!
397
00:28:44,650 --> 00:28:46,240
I suspect he let us in
398
00:28:46,930 --> 00:28:48,910
just to stock up on fresh meat
399
00:28:49,730 --> 00:28:51,370
for his pet snake.
400
00:28:51,590 --> 00:28:52,330
Nonsense.
401
00:28:53,300 --> 00:28:54,320
The audience is over for today.
402
00:28:54,500 --> 00:28:55,950
We should find a place to rest
403
00:28:56,210 --> 00:28:57,190
and wait for his orders.
404
00:28:59,340 --> 00:28:59,800
Let's go.
405
00:29:01,580 --> 00:29:03,080
That Mu Nisheng
406
00:29:03,100 --> 00:29:04,190
from the Heaven Palace acts
407
00:29:04,610 --> 00:29:05,840
like everyone has to obey her.
408
00:29:06,580 --> 00:29:07,380
Well, I will not.
409
00:29:07,380 --> 00:29:08,430
[Yun Xiyue and Hua Wanqing, disciples of Star Palace]
410
00:29:08,430 --> 00:29:09,330
Let's go this way.
411
00:29:13,020 --> 00:29:15,080
Looks like these palace schemers
412
00:29:15,100 --> 00:29:16,150
aren't impressed with me.
413
00:29:17,370 --> 00:29:19,670
Good. The less I stand out, the better.
414
00:29:19,930 --> 00:29:21,430
I just want to make it out alive.
415
00:29:23,650 --> 00:29:24,840
We've walked so long.
416
00:29:25,650 --> 00:29:27,390
I think my feet are blistering.
417
00:29:38,130 --> 00:29:40,000
Sima Jiao actually spared her in the hall.
418
00:29:40,930 --> 00:29:42,560
What is so special about her?
419
00:29:48,370 --> 00:29:49,430
I hope the Grandmaster
420
00:29:49,450 --> 00:29:50,670
does not hold regular meetings
421
00:29:51,260 --> 00:29:52,240
and will not see me again.
422
00:29:53,210 --> 00:29:53,870
My feet hurt.
423
00:29:58,690 --> 00:29:59,480
Let me help.
424
00:30:07,580 --> 00:30:08,800
They do not hurt now.
425
00:30:10,610 --> 00:30:11,150
Thank you.
426
00:30:11,860 --> 00:30:13,320
I'm Liao Tingyan. What's your name?
427
00:30:14,100 --> 00:30:15,040
I am Ye Ruling.
428
00:30:15,860 --> 00:30:16,480
Ruling.
429
00:30:19,500 --> 00:30:20,910
Why are you alone, too?
430
00:30:21,970 --> 00:30:23,080
Are you, like me,
431
00:30:23,100 --> 00:30:24,390
from the "Doing Minimum Realm"?
432
00:30:25,540 --> 00:30:26,280
"Doing Minimum Realm"?
433
00:30:29,020 --> 00:30:30,320
Is she referring to the Demon Realm?
434
00:30:31,410 --> 00:30:33,430
Where is the "Doing Minimum Realm"?
435
00:30:34,780 --> 00:30:36,840
I just mean I do not want to serve the Grandmaster.
436
00:30:38,210 --> 00:30:39,350
I am a disciple of the Yin Palace.
437
00:30:40,020 --> 00:30:41,800
My palace master sent me here.
438
00:30:46,020 --> 00:30:48,280
Why do you not want to serve the Grandmaster?
439
00:30:49,410 --> 00:30:50,590
The entire Gengchen Celestial Palace
440
00:30:50,860 --> 00:30:52,480
is sustained by his spiritual energy.
441
00:30:53,100 --> 00:30:54,480
If you can gain his favor,
442
00:30:55,580 --> 00:30:56,870
your cultivation will improve greatly.
443
00:30:57,610 --> 00:30:58,560
In a short time, you could
444
00:30:58,580 --> 00:31:00,430
achieve what would take a millennium of bitter training.
445
00:31:01,690 --> 00:31:03,320
I have no such ambition.
446
00:31:03,820 --> 00:31:05,240
I just want good food, good sleep,
447
00:31:05,740 --> 00:31:06,760
and to stay alive.
448
00:31:08,650 --> 00:31:10,150
Then what is your plan?
449
00:31:10,890 --> 00:31:13,280
I plan to find a sunny spot
450
00:31:14,450 --> 00:31:16,150
where I can nap in the sun at midday
451
00:31:16,170 --> 00:31:16,800
and stay there.
452
00:31:17,170 --> 00:31:18,080
Do you want to join me?
453
00:31:18,890 --> 00:31:19,480
No.
454
00:31:23,060 --> 00:31:24,870
But if you need help,
455
00:31:25,100 --> 00:31:26,150
you can come to the back hall to find me.
456
00:31:26,580 --> 00:31:27,080
Goodbye.
457
00:31:27,650 --> 00:31:28,240
Thank you.
458
00:31:44,820 --> 00:31:46,080
Liao Tingyan.
459
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,930
[Immortal-Demon Barrier, Yin-Yang Lake]
460
00:31:50,930 --> 00:31:52,480
Liao Tingyan has entered the mountain safely.
461
00:31:53,260 --> 00:31:54,670
Well done, Young Master.
462
00:31:55,300 --> 00:31:57,110
You must have put in quite some effort.
463
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:58,740
[Yuan Shang, Young Master of the Four Seasons Palace]
464
00:31:58,740 --> 00:32:00,560
I placed a spell on her beforehand to make sure
465
00:32:01,260 --> 00:32:02,760
she could gain spiritual energy
466
00:32:03,300 --> 00:32:05,520
from Yue Chuhui without anyone noticing during the selection.
467
00:32:06,370 --> 00:32:09,080
Good. Once she kills Sima Jiao,
468
00:32:09,610 --> 00:32:11,670
the Immortal-Demon Barrier will vanish,
469
00:32:12,580 --> 00:32:13,590
and we of the Demon Realm
470
00:32:13,890 --> 00:32:15,670
will no longer be trapped in this desolate place.
471
00:32:16,300 --> 00:32:19,670
When that time comes, you had better keep your promise.
472
00:32:20,060 --> 00:32:22,320
Rest assured. Once Sima Jiao is dead,
473
00:32:22,740 --> 00:32:24,080
you will get what you want.
474
00:32:25,020 --> 00:32:27,430
The disciples only entered today, yet a life lamp has already gone out.
475
00:32:27,690 --> 00:32:29,350
[Shi Mansion]
With the Grandmaster's ruthless
476
00:32:29,890 --> 00:32:31,190
[Shi Zhenxu, Young Sect Master]
and merciless nature,
477
00:32:32,020 --> 00:32:32,630
I fear he will...
478
00:32:33,650 --> 00:32:36,240
It is understandable he would act that way.
479
00:32:36,540 --> 00:32:37,590
Five hundred years ago,
480
00:32:37,820 --> 00:32:40,000
Sima Shi went mad and burned White Deer Cliff,
481
00:32:41,540 --> 00:32:43,560
wiping out the entire Sima clan.
482
00:32:46,020 --> 00:32:49,240
When the eight palace heads and I arrived, it was already too late.
483
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:51,840
[Sima Shi]
484
00:32:51,970 --> 00:32:55,520
Of that great clan, only Sima Jiao, who was still an infant, survived.
485
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,740
[Sima Jiao in infancy]
486
00:32:57,740 --> 00:33:00,950
He happened to bear an extremely rare atavistic bloodline
487
00:33:01,820 --> 00:33:03,760
and was already one with the Spirit Fire.
488
00:33:05,060 --> 00:33:08,720
Thus, the duty of sustaining the Spirit Fire with flesh and blood
489
00:33:09,650 --> 00:33:12,350
fell to him alone.
490
00:33:14,260 --> 00:33:17,480
Such a bloodline carried supreme power
491
00:33:18,890 --> 00:33:21,150
but also brought endless torment.
492
00:33:27,340 --> 00:33:30,720
From birth, he was destined to be the vessel of the Spirit Fire,
493
00:33:31,580 --> 00:33:34,000
his soul and body in constant agony,
494
00:33:34,020 --> 00:33:35,320
living a life worse than death.
495
00:33:37,540 --> 00:33:39,560
To preserve that precious bloodline,
496
00:33:40,020 --> 00:33:41,760
they placed seals and spells on him,
497
00:33:41,970 --> 00:33:43,240
preventing him from suicide.
498
00:33:43,930 --> 00:33:45,350
[Sima Jiao in childhood]
Sealed in the Three Saints Mountain,
499
00:33:46,020 --> 00:33:48,110
he has been imprisoned for 500 years.
500
00:33:48,820 --> 00:33:51,000
When he was just an infant, his clan was wiped out,
501
00:33:51,690 --> 00:33:54,320
and the Eight Palaces only sought to use him.
502
00:33:54,740 --> 00:33:55,950
Of course, he went mad.
503
00:33:58,300 --> 00:33:59,040
Grandmaster,
504
00:33:59,820 --> 00:34:01,350
please drink this bowl of soup.
505
00:34:02,930 --> 00:34:03,800
One more sip.
506
00:34:05,410 --> 00:34:06,760
The Grandmaster still shows some regard
507
00:34:07,650 --> 00:34:09,640
for the Shi family for our past service,
508
00:34:10,140 --> 00:34:12,240
but the disciples sent in by the Eight Palaces
509
00:34:12,570 --> 00:34:13,760
all harbor ill intentions.
510
00:34:14,530 --> 00:34:16,240
I fear few will escape death.
511
00:34:17,370 --> 00:34:18,030
Why?
512
00:34:19,300 --> 00:34:20,800
Open your eyes and look at me.
513
00:34:22,700 --> 00:34:24,760
Why did she make the Spirit Fire restless?
514
00:34:25,260 --> 00:34:26,720
I've done nothing, Grandmaster.
515
00:34:30,740 --> 00:34:32,430
What exactly is she plotting?
516
00:34:35,010 --> 00:34:36,870
