Multiverse

is a hypothetical group of

finite or infinite universes,

containing everything that exists or may exist,

such as space, time, matter, energy,

and the physical laws and constants

that describe them.

Our story happens

outside the earth,

in Kyushu, another universe.

To aid understanding and dissemination,

the story will be told in English.

Once upon a time in a mountain,

there was a temple,

where an old monk resided.

Mr. Zhang, wrong script.

Sorry, it’s my fault.

My bad. Let me start over.

Once upon a time in Lingjian Mountain,

there was a Lingjian sect.

The chief of the sect

is conducting the most serious divination in history.

Leader,

I need some Magic Stones for wine.

500 is enough.

I’m in the middle of divination,

can’t be distracted.

For whom?

For Lingjian sect.

All beings are falling, and the stars are dim.

Within 3 years,

Kyushu

will become

a lifeless land.

Feng Yin, you took the wrong thing.

Come on!

I told you a million times.

Wear your glasses for divination.

Details don’t matter.

Only happiness matters the most.

You mistook the candlestick as the sword.

Unbelievable!

Star Sword.

Back!

Kyushu will die

in less than an hour.

Not enough time to play mahjong.

Are you sure?

Star Divination

is the most divine skill of our sect.

Star Sword

is never wrong.

Within a few minutes,

the entire land will become dust.

What are you doing?

Wait for death.

Leader,

I’ve kept this to myself for too long.

Let me take your place

so that I’ll die with no regrets.

Once I’m in power,

I’ll give you a cut.

I’d rather kill myself first!

Who else is better than me?

Everyone else is.

- Liar! - Liar!

- It’s mine! - It’s not!

Stars are falling.

Kyushu will be wiped out.

Master Xiaoyun sacrificed his own life

for the sake of our sect and home.

It’s not even 100 years

that we're facing the same crisis again.

So unfair!

Master Xiaoyun said

fight to the last minute.

Never give up.

All gone.

A jinx?

We dodged a bullet.

I’ve not done yet. Where are you going?

To sleep.

Wang Wu,

fight to the last minute. Never give up.

Trust me.

Be happy.

I’ll be back.

Meanwhile,

somewhere in Kyushu,

a baby was born

in a Wang Mansion.

What’s happening?

Ma’am,

what’s your name?

Strange.

He is so quiet

and only looking around.

Is he brain-damaged?

You’re brain-damaged.

Your whole family is!

Sweetheart.

You want me to cry?

Easy peasy.

Once upon a Time in LingJian Mountain

Episode 1

Lingjian sect, one of the Five Sects,

reopens to

admit disciples.

Young people, craving for being immortals,

flood in.

Hey, you!

Our young master is the seventh prince of Ming.

Fu.

Who is he?

Don’t know.

Does he also want to have a try?

He seems to be capable.

How many times have I told you

to keep a low profile outside?

Say “prince” is enough.

No need to mention the rank.

I’m Zhu Qin,

prince of Ming.

It’s full.

I don’t care who you are.

Young master.

Even if

it were the emperor,

he would

wait in the stable.

I didn’t

see this coming.

You've got some nerves.

Fu,

how many times have I told you

to be polite

to others?

This is a girl.

We need to respect her,

protect her,

and cherish her.

I’ll ask him to apologize.

Alright.

Let’s talk inside.

Young master,

Young master, Young master.

Are you OK?

I...I’m fine.

Listen up,

since you're all here for the tryout,

you must follow our rules.

Rules? There are rules?

What rules?

Suites aren’t for everyone.

Excuse me,

I have a question.

You said

suites aren’t for everyone.

Does that mean

only people who meet the conditions

can have access to it?

Aren’t you quick-witted?

He’s right.

Suites are for Admission Coupon holders only.

Admission Coupon?

What is it?

Well,

the number of the coupon is limited.

There’s only one

in this town.

Only one?

You mean this?

Welcome.

Impressive!

Please.

He gets in.

He’s in!

How can I get it?

I want to go in, too.

I don’t need room service.

I’m Hai Yunfan

from Yuntai.

I’m also here for the tryout.

According to the registration,

are you Wang Lu?

What’s up?

Sorry to bother you.

I’m simply curious about

how you acquired the coupon.

I’d appreciate it if you could tell me.

None of your business.

If you agree to be my servant for one day,

I’ll tell you.

Sure.

Come on in.

Have a seat.

Let me tell you

how awesome I was.

Have some tea.

His attitude has changed so quickly.

He can’t wait to tell others.

When I arrived at the entrance of the town,

an old man was trying to start a conversation.

He was inarticulate and long-winded,

so nobody wanted to talk to him.

But

as an experienced adventurer,

my gut told me

that old man was looking for more

than he asked for.

So I chose to be patient

and let him finish his words.

In the end, he told me

he was thirsty.

I saw that man too

and also gave him water,

but I didn’t get anything.

Wrong.

It was just the beginning.

He drank up the water but still seemed unsatisfied

and pointed at the dessert shop.

Oh, he wanted desserts?

Wrong.

He was in love with the girl inside.

Look,

as adventurers,

we should always think outside the box.

That man was too shy to talk to her,

so I accompanied him to the shop,

pretending to buy desserts.

You know what, that girl said

he looked like her deceased grandpa

and she wanted a ring.

Then I went to the teahouse.

At first, the owner there...

Eventually,

I gave the ring to that man

and that girl agreed to be with him.

He was so excited

and gave me the coupon.

I can’t quite follow you,

but that sounds amazing.

That’s what I got to be his servant?

Not fair.

You went to great lengths

to get this suite.

You think I want it?

My guess is

the tryout has begun

since the minute we set foot

in this town.

We’ve known each other for so long,

you still won’t give me?

You're making me blush.

You’re mad at your dad, aren’t you?

As long as you give me the coin,

I promise he’ll be good

and won't say a word.

Given your usual style,

I don't think I can trust you.

I’m a senior in Lingjian sect,

a role model.

Specialized in lying, cheating,

and entertainment.

Rumors stop at the wise.

I never thought you’d believe them.

They are jealous

of my intelligence and beauty.

Cut it out!

It hurts!

Finding the Admission Coupon

is a hidden task.

But it's cracked

within one day.

Looks like we’ve got some talents.

Stop, stop, stop.

Enough. I’ve done.

I’ll give you one last chance.

Will you give me the Xiaoyun coin or not?

No.

Since our friendship means nothing to you,

I’ll take your dad's side then.

What does he want now?

He asked me to bet with you.

If you can sell 100 boiled radishes

within one day,

you’ll win.

And he’ll stop interfering with your life.

But if you lose,

you’ll have to go home.

Without me,

you’ll lose.

Deal.

It’s just 100 radishes.

I’ll win.

A friendly reminder,

there’s a condition.

Let go.

No.

Let go.

- No. - Let go of me.

Wang Wu is evil.

She set me up!

Where could I find so many suckers?

1,000 taels per radish.

- Who would buy it? - You can make a fine servant.

1,000 taels for a radish.

Miss, are you insane?

Leave me alone.

Not in the mood.

Will you be in a better mood

if I can sell out your radishes?

1,000 taels for a radish.

Are you sure people will buy it?

Wang Lu,

there might be

one or two idiots

who are willing to pay 1,000 taels for a radish.

But 100 seems impossible.

The ultimate goal

is to earn 100,000 teals, isn’t it?

I can sell for 1,000 or 100 times more.

The process doesn’t matter.

All you need is a result, right?

You don’t believe me?

Not exactly.

Fine. I’ll give you a chance.

So,

what do you need me to do?

Give me 10,000 taels first.

What?

Scam costs money, too.

It’s up to you.

I don’t have to do it.

Wait.

Give her some time to think.

It isn’t a small number.

Of course it’s not.

It's everything I have.

Don’t worry.

You know what my middle name is?

Honesty.

Wang Lu,

how’s it going?

It's OK if you can’t make enough money,

but don't lose mine.

Wang Lu is probably out to earn money.

He’ll be back later.

Miss,

being an immortal

isn’t the only choice.

Go home with 10,000 taels

isn’t too bad.

Thank you.

Wang Lu,

I’ll kill you!

All applicants, listen up,

a S Level Task for you.

Catch Wang Lu,

dead or alive!

Whoever brings Wang Lu to me

will be given

the task of the next round.

Miss,

I don’t think

Wang Lu would do this.

There must be a misunderstanding.

Misunderstanding?

It’s clearly written on the paper.

Are you blind?

I get it.

No wonder you were fanning the flames.

You two are in cahoots, aren’t you?

Miss, it’s not what you think.

I’m as clueless as you are.

Allow me to explain.

Say no more.

Anyway,

if I can’t get my money back,

I’ll feed you to the sharks.

Have you seen this man?

No.

Excuse me.

Didn’t see him.

Who are they looking for?

Excuse me.

Don't know him.

Coming through.

Have you seen this man?

Never.

Idiots!

Still wondering around the town.

Wang Lu is definitely out of town.

Once I catch Wang Lu,

you’ll know

who the winner is.

Where should I go?

It’s a large place.

Where...

Sir, sir, eyes on the road.

Are you OK?

I didn’t touch you. I’m innocent.

You see this?

Are you looking for someone?

Is it someone

in 20s, good-looking,

eyes rolling,

and indecent?

Yeah.

That person is wearing a silk robe

and chewing on a straw?

That’s right.

You saw him?

Not really.

Then how did you know all that?

Aren’t you too old for this?

I’m listening.

10,000 taels.

That's ridiculous!

I might as well leave.

It's just 10,000 taels.

I can trade Wang Lu for the next task.

Here you are.

Young man,

I like you.

Here’s a poem for you.

I’m looking for a man.

What's the use...

A poem for you.

OK.

The mountain stone footpath is tilted.

“Mountain”.

“Tilted”.

Wang Lu took this tilted path.

Good day.

“Mountain”,

“Footpath”,

“Tilted”.

So easy.

Heaven helps who helps the elderly.

But where is Wang Lu?

Sir.

Young man,

I’ve been waiting for you.

Why are you waiting for me?

Isn’t Wang Lu supposed to be here?

You played me!

I might as well leave.

Wait.

I’m young and strong,

but I can’t stop panting while climbing.

This man seems old and weak.

How could he get here before me?

Could he be an immortal?

Sir,

I apologize for my rudeness.

Immortals still have earthly desires.

Fine. It’s for charity.

20,000 taels.

I like you.

Yeah, whatever.

I have

a poem for you.

I’m listening.

Through the clouds...

“Through”,

“Clouds”.

“A house stood”.

“Through”.

Through the clouds, a house stood.

What...

Sir,

no, sorry, Master,

you’re here for...

Enough!

You’re so greedy!

That’s too much even for immortals.

I might as well leave.

Fine, fine, fine.

I like you.

I have

a poem for you.

Sure.

Shoot.

Through the bamboo forest,

a meditation room sat deep among flowering bushes.

Bamboo,

inside the bamboo forest.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you very much.

We’ve met three times.

I like you.

Before you leave,

another poem for you as a bonus.

Thanks.

Bunnies,

white as snow.

Ears up in the air,

how cute bouncing on the ground.

That’s adorable.

Good day.

I see.

I got clues from an immortal.

Am I the chosen one by the Lingjian sect?

What does that poem mean?

A line is missing.

Bunnies,

white as snow.

Ears up in the air...

What’s their favorite food again?

What do bunnies like to eat?

What do they eat?

Bunnies like...

Radish!

Wang Lu!

Stop.

Don't move.

I’ve finally found you.

How did you know that poem?

That man said

he’d only tell me.

Liar!

He also told you?

How much did you pay?

I paid...

None of your business.

What are you doing here?

I’m here to catch you.

It’s my task.

Why am I being hunted?

You need to ask?

You took her money.

Yes. Right.

I made a mistake.

Hey, why don’t you let me go?

I’ll give you the money,

plus 10 grand more.

10 grand more.

Something is wrong.

What's wrong?

Look at you.

You seem odd.

You're being vague and changing the subject.

You’re hiding something.

I know it.

Radish!

It’s the radish!

What radish? I don't know anything.

Don’t play dumb with me.

I know it.

She wouldn’t catch you for 10 grand.

I bet

this radish is a divine treasure.

It can cleanse the body, right?

You know

it took me a lot of effort and money

to get this.

I don’t care.

You know how much it costs

to find you?

You...you...

I want this radish.

Being an immortal is most important.

Don’t push me.

Don’t push me. What are you doing?

If I cut it,

it’ll be useless.

None of us will win.

Don’t push me!

Don’t push me!

Don’t push me!

I’ll cut it.

I’m doing it.

Name your price.

This much?

Take it.

Give me.

Alright.

What...what is this?

I want all of it.

You've got a lot of nerves!

- I’ll cut... - Hold on.

Each piece is 10,000 taels.

They gave me this knife when I bought it.

It’s yours now.

Thank you.

You’re so kind.

Be good to it.

Don’t hurt it.

Wang Lu,

what on earth is going on?

Let me introduce you a new friend,

my errand boy,

Wang Zhong.

Young master.

Young master,

I’m new here

and you entrusted me with such an important task.

Why did Zhu Qin

spend a fortune on a radish?

Because he’s as stupid as you.

You’re mocking me again.

He’s a mortal.

How could he

get to each place

faster than Zhu Qin every time?

Between two points...

A straight line is the shortest.

Zhu Qin followed the poem and zigzagged up,

while Wang Zhong took the straight path.

You first created

a distraction,

and then used Wang Zhong

to mislead Zhu Qin that he met an immortal

so that he paid you

120,000 taels willingly.

Excellent move!

But

why didn’t you

tell us in advance?

Hadn't I kept it from you,

would Zhu Qin have fallen for it?

Well,

I complete your task.

Good job.

I helped you earn so much money.

You're leaving like this?

The tryout is still a few days away.

You can eat here for free.

You really won’t give me

even a penny?

A penny?

Sure.

Here’s your penny.

You can give it back.

No way.

You gave it to me after all.

I’ll take it.

Wang Lu,

she gave you a coin.

Does that mean anything?

I’ve been begging you for that coin.

You gave it to someone else?

You almost talked my ear off.

Besides,

the coin is no longer mine.

You’re free to get it back.

Fine.

I need to remind you

Xiaoyun Coin automatically bonds with the owner.

Unless given by the owner,

it won’t

be yours.

You...

Well played!

What did you do to the task in 3 days?

Psycho!

If I can’t get it,

nobody else can.

What the heck?

I’ve eaten so much.

It's still not working.

What’s the smell?

It’s just an ordinary radish.

- Even if you eat 100... - Who is it?

It won't cleanse your root.

Where are you from?

Dressed as a black pole.

Hey,

watch your words.

An immortal of the Liangjian sect

told me about it.

That so-called immortal

is Wang Lu’s servant Wang Zhong.

You mean I was tricked?

I’ll confront them.

The owner of Home Inn

and Lingjian sect are close.

If you act rashly,

you might get expelled

from the tryout.

So I shall just let it slide?

Do you know who I am?

I’m a prince of Ming.

I’m a p...

I’m a prince.

See my badge?

This is only a small price to pay

if you can be admitted by Lingjian sect.

Who are you?

Why are you telling me this?

You don't need to know.

Just do what I say,

then tomorrow,

you can quickly pass the test.

Don’t try to fool me.

What do you want?

She said to give us free meals,

yet we've eaten leftovers for three days.

Well,

we did have enough to eat.

Impressive!

I’ve prepared so long for this.

Where’s Hai?

I haven’t seen him since this morning.

He might've left already.

The place is crowded.

Young master, Young master.

That’s the first round of the tryout.

Golden Bridge.

Incredible!

Fascinating!

Look, they beat us to it.

They won’t make it.

Young master,

how did you know?

Oh, please,

this is like a preliminary of the World Cup.

Only after the referee blows his whistle

will the game kick off.

The tryout begins.

This is

the admission test.

The first round is simple.

All you need to do is to walk across the bridge.

There’s only one small condition.

There’s an age limitation.

People who're under 23

can get on the bridge.

For the unqualified ones,

please go back.

Wang Zhong,

let’s go.

Wang Lu.

Hai!

You're qualified?

Judging from your tone,

I thought you are over 23.

I’m here to wait for you.

Thank you,

but I’m not interested in you.

We aren’t meant to be.

You’re hilarious.

Would you like to join me?

Join you?

We can be partners.

I’m sure you've heard

how difficult

all the admission tests are.

Work in teams

is better

than alone.

Work in teams?

No, thank you.

I’m kidding.

I don’t need a partner,

but

you can be my man.

I’ll take you under my wing

after we both get admitted.

It's scorching.

I’m feeling hot.

Good job.

I’m sorry, sorry.

You brat,

are you blind?

Young master,

help! Young master!

Damn!

I thought only people under 23 can be here.

What the hell is he?

We can talk.

He’s still a kid.

It’s you.

Be careful.

Be good.

Young master,

you’re amazing!

You scared him away.

He’s afraid of the one next to me.

Let’s go.

I’ve prepared for this.

I’ll beat all of you.

Where’s the fog from?

- It’s foggy. - I’m blind.

I can’t see anything.

What's happening?

Be careful.

- Careful. - Are you OK?

Young master,

where are you? Young master.

Young master, where are you?

I’m scared.

Young master,

I can’t see you. Where are you?

Young master.

Here you are!

Why did you walk so fast?

Didn’t I tell you to follow me?

It seems that we've been circling around.

This fog must be a trap.

I’d like to see

how powerful it can be.

You acquired the Admission Coupon

and managed to get the Xiaoyun Coin.

I’m curious to find out

how far you can go.

Well, my priority

is to get the coin.

Who is this?

The first winner?

That black pole didn’t lie.

With his eyedrops,

I can see through the fog.

I’ll be the first winner.

What is this?

Contraindications! You passed

this round first.

Now,

you can make a wish

related to the test.

You mean anything?

Yes, but don’t make it about me.

I want the test to be 100 times

more difficult for others.

Young man,

you've won the first place.

Do you want others to all fail?

I’m not sure if I should call you smart

or greedy.

Forget it.

I’ll change.

But I like your idea.

A good one.

Next, let’s hear the scream!

Young master!

Young master!

Young master!

The Golden Bridge becomes quicksand.

Young master.

- Help me! - Don’t move.

Stay still.

It's quicksand.

The more you move, the deeper you will sink.

Yes, he’s right.

Quicksand?

How childish the trick is..

Fine,

I’ll play along.

Young master,

You’ll be laughed at

if you keep this post.

Dignity

trumps life.

Spread the weight over the whole body

instead of the feet

to not get sucked in.

Excellent move.

Impossible.

You can’t help yourself out in this situation.

You’ll need to get outside help,

such as stepping on others.

I’ve made a post here,

so just step on me.

Come on.

Wang Lu.

Hai,

we're sort of friends now.

One of us has to make the sacrifice.

It’s OK. I can take it.

Be gentle.
