- I'm going to save Ling'er. - All right.

Hey, Horse Face! Hold it right there!

You're the father of my master's wife?

You want to call yourself someone two generations above me?

Where are you doing, huh?

Come out and show yourself!

Where are you going, little girl?

What do you want?

Don't pull me.

Bastard, let go of my daughter!

I'm going to kill you, Horse Face!

Let go of me! Let go of me!

Third Brother, Fourth Brother. Come out. Hurry up!

Big Brother said not to fight among yourselves!

Let go of me!

Let me hold you a while longer, little girl.

Let go of my daughter, bastard!

Young Master Duan.

Don't fret, Madam.

Don't touch my Zhong Ling!

You...

- Who are you? - Come out!

What are you doing? Hey! What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Let go of me!

Ling'er!

Ling'er! Ling'er!

Are you all right, Ling'er?

I'm fine.

- Miss Ling'er. - Are you all right?

- Are you all right? - Are you all right?

- Ling'er! - Something is not off here.

Let's retreat now.

Brother Duan, just now, you said I'm your...

Brother Duan!

Your Majesty, a message from the crown prince's manor.

The crown prince's heir was suddenly possessed.

An imperial physician has already been sent.

Why was he possessed suddenly? What did the physician say?

Last night, someone took Young Master Duan to the Wanjie Valley.

It was the crown prince who brought him back.

The physician said he is seriously ill.

He seems a little delirious.

Head to Zhennan Manor now.

I am going to see Yu.

Yes.

Yu.

Yu.

Imperial Physician. Imperial Physician!

- Please spare me, Young Master Duan! - I can't take it anymore!

- Please spare me, Young Master Duan! - Help me!

Yu!

Yu.

Father.

Yu. His Majesty is here.

I feel terrible, Mother...

Yu! What happened to you, Yu?

Uncle.

I'm dying.

Brother. The Nanhai Crocodile took Yu to Wanjie Valley last night.

But for some reason, he fainted all of a sudden.

The chief of Wanjie Valley brought him out.

I... I was the one who brought him back here.

However, once he woke up, he went berserk.

I believe Yu was poisoned in Wanjie Valley and the poison still lingers inside him.

Chun, it's late now.

Hurry up and go to Shenjie Monastery with the two monks.

I'll take care of Yu.

My son.

Understood.

Imperial Physician. How is his condition now?

Your Majesty, his pulse is beating vigorously.

It seems the inner energy inside his body is overwhelmed.

Leave now.

- Yes, Your Majesty. - Yes, Your Majesty.

Yu. Have you met Ding Chun Qiu from Xingxiu Sea?

Ding... Ding Chun Qiu?

Yes.

This man is well-versed in strange and unusual martial arts,

namely, Great Energy Dissolving Skills.

It can dissolve one's inner energy

and destroy all of one's martial arts skills.

It is despised by all in the pugilistic world.

Since you have never met him, then why do you know this technique?

Uncle... I do not know.

This is the first time I have heard of Ding Chun Qiu, that strange old man,

and the Great Energy Dissolving Skill.

(It must be Prince Qing Yan who learned this technique)

(and somehow transferred this skill to Yu.)

(So that he would unknowingly harm both me and Chun.)

It seems we can only seek help from the seniors.

Yu, I will bring you to the Tianlong Temple right now.

[Reverend Ku Rong, Tianlong Temple]

Amitabha.

The heir of Prince Zhennan was poisoned by a strange malevolence and has come to seek treatment.

Please offer us guidance, Elders.

Even if the inner energy is slightly damaged,

it is still possible to master Six Pulse Excalibur.

Thank you, Elders.

Yu. The four elders are willing to exhaust their power to expel your poison.

Hurry, kneel and thank them now.

A formidable enemy is coming.

Yet Tianlong Temple is in a weakened state.

Is it worth sacrificing our power for his sake at a time like this?

I did not realize you were here, Reverend Ku Rong.

Sorry for being rude. My apologies.

Earlier, you mentioned that a formidable enemy is coming.

I wonder who could that be.

The meeting with Maha Cakra Vajra from Daxue Mountain is tomorrow.

Ben Yin, show him the letter.

"I had once discussed martial arts with Mr. Murong Bo.

Mr. Murong had high regard for the Six Pulse Excalibur technique,

which originated from your temple.

He was so regretful not to have a chance to study it.

Recently, I heard that Mr. Murong has passed away.

I'm in deep grief.

To repay to my bosom friend,

I would like to ask for this scripture

and to burn it before Mr. Murong's grave.

"I will come to collect it soon."

The Six Pulse Excalibur is the ultimate treasure of our temple,

the most prized scripture of Duan's martial arts.

With it reposing in this temple,

even Zheng Ming and Zheng Chun are unaware of it,

yet the one from the Murong Clan knew about this.

One who comes is sure with ill-intention, no one well-meaning will come.

That is why we have asked Reverend Ku Rong to come and handle the matter.

Maha Cakra Vajra is bold indeed.

Is he not afraid of the Six Pulse Excalibur?

Unfortunately, although the scripture is stored here,

none of us have mastered the Six Pulse Excalibur.

If Maha Cakra Vajra requests to read the scripture,

we would just decline the request politely.

But he intends to burn it as an offering for the deceased.

That is an insult to the Tianlong Temple.

Calm your anger, Junior.

I believe he is only trying to imitate the actions of Ji Zha,

who hung a precious sword before his friend's grave.

Mr. Murong must be a special person indeed

to earn this man's respect to do such a deed for him.

Grand Martial Uncle assessed the situation.

If we are unable to master the Six Pulse Excalibur,

I am afraid the scripture will be seized by the enemy.

However, this technique consumes inner energy.

It takes a long time to master it.

Zheng Ming. It is not that we do not wish to help you,

but I'm afraid everyone's inner energy will be exhausted if we do so

and fail to resist the enemy when he comes.

Although Yu is severely poisoned,

however, he can still hold on for a few days longer.

Why not leave him here to rest for now?

We will help him to expel the poison

after we send the enemy away.

You're very benevolent, Reverend. I appreciate that very much.

Reverend Ku Rong did mention

the issue of Maha Cakra Vajra.

If I may offer my help as well?

Coincidentally, I have thought of an idea.

It would take a long time for all of us to master the Six Pulse Excalibur.

Therefore, I've thought of an easier way.

The six of us will each practice one pulse.

And we will attack together.

Zheng Ming. Since you're here, join us.

However...we are not allowed to teach the technique to someone who isn't a disciple.

I can only teach you the technique only if you receive the tonsure ceremony.

I have always wished to take refuge in the Buddha.

I'll never regret protecting both Buddhism and the temple.

Very well.

If so, come over here.

I'll perform the tonsure ceremony.

Once we defeat the enemy, you may secularize.

Uncle.

Every human is able to attain Buddhahood.

Alone, one's power is small yet significant.

Even a single change can make a difference.

Now, you've sought refuge in the Buddha,

you will be given the Dharma name, Ben Chen.

Thank you, Master.

The Six Pulse Excalibur does not refer to a real sword.

It is a technique that uses power formed from the One-finger Death Touch.

It has all of a sword's properties but without a form.

It is also known as the Invisible Sword.

As for the "six pulses",

it refers to the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin,

Pericardium Meridian of Hand-Jueyin, Heart Meridian of Hand-Shaoyin,

Small Intestine Meridian of Hand-Taiyang, Stomach Meridian of Hand-Yanging,

and Sanjiao Meridian of Hand-Shaoyang.

Junior Ben Chen, among the six pulses,

you will learn the Sanjiao Meridian of Hand-Shaoyang.

Supposedly, it should be one to master all six pulses.

However, due to the decline of the pugilistic world,

there is no one who possesses such profound inner energy to master it.

We can only opt for the other option.

For six people to each master a pulse.

Grand Martial Uncle will learn the Shao Shang Sword of Thumb.

I will learn the Shangyang Sword of Index Finger.

Senior Ben Guan, you will learn the Zhongchong Sword of Middle Finger.

Junior Ben Chen, you will learn the Guanchong Sword of Ring Finger.

Senior Ben Xiang will learn the Shaochong Sword of Little Finger.

Junior Ben Can, you will learn the Shaoze Sword of Left Hand's Little Finger.

As the enemy will soon appear,

we must remove all distractions and stay focused.

(My arm.)

(What's wrong with my arm?)

(I feel as if something like a rat is trying to come out.)

(This place...)

Uncle.

(This place...)

(It's the Kongzui acupoint according to the pulse chart.)

(Why is it becoming even more unbearable now?)

(It's probably because the five masters have instilled a lot of inner energy in me)

(and caused the energy in my body to flow even more vigorously.)

(I can't disturb them.)

(Perhaps)(I should move the inner energy inside my body according to the figure chart)

(to divert my attention.)

(From Kongzui acupoint to Taiyuan acupoint, )

(then to Chize acupoint)

(and towards the Yuji acupoint.)

(Amazing.) (Fascinating.)

(After moving the inner energy around, )

(I feel a lot calmer and better.)

(This technique) (I have already seen it, )

(can ease my pain.)

(so should I...)

(No, I can't.)

(This is the secret technique of the Tianlong Temple.)

(I cannot learn it without permission) (as I'm not a disciple.)

(I just want to see it.)(I won't learn it.)

(I w(I mean it.)

(I'll just take a look.) (I'll just look.)

(The Six Pulse Excalibur)(cannot be taught to someone who is not a disciple.)

(I only wish to ease the pain inside my body.)

(To let the inner energy flow freely in my arms and hands.)

It's so strange.

This illness struck me so suddenly, yet it left abruptly as well.

I've caused them unnecessary worry.

Why haven't the little monks and disciples

delivered the meals here yet?

Well. I should find something to eat first.

Please stop here. The area ahead is a forbidden area.

[Jiu Mo Zhi, Adviser to the Tibetan ruler]

He has come. He's here.

Well. Maha Cakra Vajra has arrived.

Yu. Stay in the room.

Don't come out.

Maha Cakra Vajra, you've traveled a long way.

My apologies for not going to welcome you.

I have long heard of Tianlong Temple's name.

I am delighted to be able to meet

the masters of the temple today.

Amitabha.

I come with a presumptuous request.

I hope that you may grant my wish.

The encounter between you and Mr. Murong is because of fate.

Since it has ended, why do you dwell on it?

Mr. Murong has passed away and joined the other world.

He no longer has any ties

to the martial arts of the mortal world.

Your words are sound and reasonable, Reverend.

However, I'm too dull and shallow.

I can't let go of this friendship.

Previously, both of us had discussed martial arts.

On the topic of sword skills,

he had high regard

for the Six Pulse Excalibur technique of the Duan Clan in Dali.

It is a pity that he never had a chance to see it in his life.

It was his greatest regret.

I had once promised him

to borrow the scripture of Six Pulse Excalibur

for him to read.

I should make good on my promises

regardless of dead or alive.

Besides, I will never break my own promises.

Inside this chest are three amazing scripts.

[72 Secret Arts of Shaolin] They were all written by Mr. Murong.

They record the moves, gist, and unraveling skills

of the 72 Secret Arts of Shaolin.

I would like to exchange these three scripts

for the one scripture of the Six Pulse Excalibur technique.

Of course, I'm young and inexperienced.

It will be hard for me to gain your trust with just my words.

Therefore, please forgive my rudeness.

Flower-pinching Finger.

My skills are, of course,

inferior to Reverend Xuan Du of Shaolin Temple.

As for the Pattra Finger...

The Invincible Finger is as incredible as the legend says.

I'm impressed.

You flattered me.

What is your answer then, Reverend?

You have shown us your mastery of the three techniques.

We can tell your sincerity.

However, we have yet to master

the One-finger Death Touch ourselves.

Why should we need scriptures of other techniques?

Please forgive my arrogant words.

If the Six Pulse Excalibur technique is indeed as invincible as Mr. Murong described,

then I believe no one in Tianlong Temple

will be able to master it.

See him off.

Adviser, this way, please.

Since the scripture of the Six Pulse Excalibur

does not live up to its reputation,

why would you want to risk the harmony between Dali and Tibetan Empire

for just one scripture, Reverend?

Are you insinuating

that if we refuse to hand over the scripture,

Tibetan Empire will wage war against Dali?

The emperor of the Tibetan Empire is well-versed and well aware

of Dali's people and its nation.

His Majesty has always had the intention to conquer Dali.

I'm just afraid that such an act would cost unnecessary lives

that go against Buddha's benevolence.

I've been advising His Majesty against waging war for many years.

You are well-versed in the 72 Secret Arts of Shaolin

as well as the martial arts of Dalun Temple in the Daxue Mountain.

If you want the scripture,

then come and get it.

The Shaoze Sword Skill does exist, after all.

Good.

Zhongchong Sword Skill.

(Don't lose this opportunity.)

(Read the scripture and learn.)

(Self-study and master it.)

(This is not against the rules.)

Reverend Ku Rong does have profound inner energy.

I'm truly impressed.

However, the Six Pulse Excalibur is overrated.

What makes you say so?

Please enlighten us.

Back then, Mr. Murong admired

the sword skill techniques of the Six Pulse Excalibur.

Not its formation.

With the six of you combined, you are able to exert great force.

But even then, the formation is only comparable to that of the Luohan Formation of Shaolin Temple

and the Chaos Sword Skill of the Kunlun clan.

It cannot be considered the ultimate martial arts technique.

Regardless of the technique or formation,

who is the winner between us?

You? Or us?

You have the upper hand for the first round.

However, I promised Mr. Murong

I would bring him the scripture.

I won't give up.

Rest assured, Reverend.

I've already thought of a way to counter your formation.

Be prepared.

I see.

He exerts several forces of power from his palm.

While Uncle and the other masters can only use their palms instead of the "pulses".

Obviously, the Six Pulse Excalibur is inferior to his Blaze Blade.

My apologies.

Uncle.

Reverend Ku Rong.

I didn't expect you to be so resolute.

You would rather destroy the scripture

than give it to me!

Well. Your scripture was destroyed because of me.

I'm disconcerted.

However, I can tell that the Six Pulse Excalibur

can't be fully mastered by one person.

It'll be useless even if I have it.

I'll take my leave now.

Please.

Uncle!

His Majesty has been aware of the prestige of Emperor Baoding.

I would like to invite you to come with me to Tibetan Empire.

Reverends, I don't have any ill intentions.

If you keep forcing me,

I'm afraid I can't guarantee his end.

Release my uncle!

And who are you?

Don't ask.

Release my uncle first!

Yu. Don't bother.

I'm only a monk right now.

Tell your father to ascend to the throne as soon as possible.

How dare you attack me with this weird footwork?

You're the despicable villain who sneaked an attack!

The Six Pulse Excalibur?

It seems like I have underestimated you, little brat.

Let me see how capable you are then.

You've destroyed the written scripture.

I'll take the "live" one with me then.

That way, Mr. Murong will have a companion to join him in the other world.

Farewell.

Young Master Duan. I have been quite rude to you

for the past few days.

I'm very unsettled.

Years back then,

I promised Mr. Murong

to show him the Six Pulse Excalibur of the Duan family.

Yet, I was never able to make good on that promise.

I still mind it until now.

Fortunately, you have the scripture in your mind.

So I'll have to burn you before his grave

to fulfill that promise.

That way, I won't let down my deceased friend.

Of course, you are indeed talented,

Young Master Duan.

There are no grudges between us.

It's impossible for me to harm your life.

As long as you write down

the scripture in your mind.

Don't worry. I will not read it.

When it is finished, I'll seal it instantly and bring it to Mr. Murong's grave to burn it.

That way, I will be able to make good on my promise

and you will be able to return to Dali soon.

Sir, don't try to deceive me.

Look, no one can tell if the promise between you and Mr. Murong is true or not.

Besides, you would definitely read the scripture when it's done.

Who knows if you will really burn it?

Even if you do burn it, you would read it and memorize it

as you are intelligent.

Young Master Duan, both of us are Buddha's believers.

How can you spout such nonsense?

Be kind. Stay kind.

If so,

I'm afraid I will have to force you then.

I'm doing this for your sake.

Don't blame me.

Don't worry.

If you can't handle it,

I'll stop right away.

And let you write down the scripture.

If I write it, you'll kill me after I'm done.

But if I don't, you won't bear to kill me.

So writing down the scripture is suicide for me.

I've already thought it over. Adviser Jiu Mo Zhi.

How benevolent of Buddha.

The Great Energy Dissolving Skill?

Who exactly taught you this skill?
