[Immortal Samsara]

[Episode 45]

-Father! -Father!

Don't stop me!

I can't keep Zilin's secret anymore.

Clan Leader.

What secret?

As things have come to this point,

I'll just tell you about it.

Zilin,

you're not an ordinary tortoise.

Zilin is an immortal tortoise in heaven.

The deceased Celestial Deity Beiming was his master.

He absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon.

Hence,

he is a divine tortoise.

I thought I was just an ordinary tortoise in the divine lake.

It turned out that my master was Celestial Deity Beiming.

Really?

Talk less.

This is Zilin's immortal form.

I thought my primordial spiritual pills

would look unique.

It turned out to be so precious.

Father,

if you're willing to let Linlang marry me,

this immortal spirit

will be at her disposal.

Father.

You once were the Immortal Clan from heaven,

but now, you're a spirit in the mortal world.

We, Fox Clan,

have never set up an alliance with the Tortoise Clan.

If this goes public,

-how will I... -Father! Father!

I don't care if he's from Immortal Clan.

All I care about is

if he loves me wholeheartedly.

Father,

I beg of you.

Promise me, okay?

Just fulfill our wishes, will you?

-Father! -I beg of you.

-Please let us get married. -I beg of you.

I don't want to leave the mountain.

And I can't bear to leave

Mountain Chief and Miss Yandan.

Father.

Listen to me.

The marriage must be held in the Mountain Chief Hall.

It must be filled with 88 tables for the banqueting

to make it solemn.

Father.

Eighty-eight tables?

We don't have that much money in the mountain.

Do it.

Even if I lose everything, I'll still do it.

Moreover,

you've got to ask a respected immortal over

to be the witness.

Well...

Father.

Didn't you cultivate in the Heavenly Realm before?

Don't tell me you don't know any superior deity.

Clan Leader,

if I may be so bold,

must it be a superior deity?

Yumo is the King of All Spirits.

It'll be an honor to have him as their witness.

-Yes. -Right.

Or

will an Earthly Immortal do?

There's a Guardian of Soil I know.

He's so kind.

Can you...

No.

We're leaving.

-Find a superior deity. -Father!

Only then can you come to Fox Clan to propose.

Father!

-Father. -Clan Leader.

Let's go.

Father, calm down.

Father.

Clan Leader, please stay.

Mountain Chief Yumo.

Please forgive me for being noisy and rude.

But Linlang is my favorite daughter.

You treasure your daughter.

I can understand that.

How hard can it be to get a superior deity as the witness?

A sovereign lord who descends to the Mortal Realm.

Are you satisfied with that?

A sovereign lord?

Linlang and Zilin got into trouble because of me.

I'll just be the witness to their marriage.

To bring good luck to them.

Greetings, Your Majesty.

-Sorry to be rude. -Father.

What are you doing?

Get up.

He is our savior.

-Kneel down. -He is Taoist Tang.

-All of you, kneel down. -He captures spirits.

The Sovereign Lord is the savior of the Fox Clan.

During the War of Genesis,

thanks to Sovereign Lord's help,

Fox Clan managed to avoid the genocidal acts of the Asura Clan.

Back then, Fox Clan avoided the war to survive.

After that, the Heavenly Court was going to denounce us

and kicked us Fox Clan out from Immortal Clan.

Our clan was bullied.

Because of your kindness,

you saved the territories of the Fox Clan.

That's how our clan survive until now.

Your portrait has been kept in the ancestral temple of the Fox Clan.

Every clan leader is grateful for your kindness and we worship you.

I descend to the Mortal Realm to experience hardships.

I can't remember the past.

If the kindness I did back then

can bring a good outcome,

that would be a good thing.

As long as Linlang and Zilin love each other,

Yandan and I are willing

to be the witnesses

to hold their marriage.

Father.

I, Zilin, am happy to do it.

If I can marry Linlang,

I'll be sure to treasure her.

I'll love what she likes

and hate what she hates.

Even if the world is torn apart,

the water flows backward,

I'll never change my mind.

If I go back on my words,

I'll die a horrible death

and never be able to reincarnate.

You're indeed a man.

I'll allow you two

to get married.

Since Mr. Tang has such noble status

and he and you Fox Clan go way back,

then can these 88 tables of banqueting be...

Your Majesty.

No.

If Mr. Tang graces us with your presence as a witness on my daughter's marriage,

it'll be a great honor for the Fox Clan.

How would I dare to ask for anything more?

I'm willing to spare all the efforts of the Fox Clan,

and I'll offer the divine scripture which has been passed down for thousands of years

to return the favor.

It's justified for Linlang to do anything for Yelan Mountain

as a token of appreciation.

This is a predestined marriage.

A divine scripture that is thousands of years old?

Go ahead.

We have to hold this marriage now.

Hey, can you keep an eye

on those soul-splittings of yours?

They wandered around.

If they came out at night,

it'd freak those timid spirits out.

I didn't see you when I woke up.

So I asked them to look for you.

And I happened

to do them a favor.

How are you going to thank me?

I guess the pleasant surprise is this box of divine scriptures.

I didn't expect the Leader of the Fox Clan

to keep his promise.

He asked someone to bring this box of divine scriptures over

so soon.

I guess

there must be a magical spell

to break the mysterious man's move in these hundreds of books.

I think this Lotus Sutra is quite nice.

"It's suitable for those who suffer from kidney deficiency

and leakage of male force."

This is not suitable for you.

Why isn't it suitable for me?

Let me see it.

I said it's not suitable for you.

Give... give it back to me.

"To cultivate this,

the cultivator has to take off the clothes,

pick a person to inject the power into Dark Ice,

and wipe the whole body with Dark Ice."

I think it's quite suitable for me.

You vile man.

It's suitable for you, but not for me.

What are you doing?

You said that you want to save me.

How do you know

it's not suitable without trying it?

I don't want to.

Isn't it written clearly in the book?

You're wiping the same place.

Stop being too demanding, okay?

What about the neck?

It hurts.

What's wrong?

Are you shy?

I'm not shy.

I'm daring.

If so, why did you stop?

Keep going.

My immortal spirit hurts again.

Since it hurts so much,

let me help you with it.

Heitu.

Perfect timing.

Quickly.

-Wipe it for him. -Darn it.

Well.

As you're severely injured,

you should take care of yourself.

Besides, pretending to be sick to seek attention

is the trick I've used before.

It doesn't work at all.

It'll do as long as it works.

As I'm dying,

the most important thing is to be happy.

Yandan,

I've put Zhaolan's reply letter

in the Pavilion of Books.

Go read it if you have the time.

This palm is incurable, right?

How could it be?

There must be a way to cure it.

Didn't you hear Yumo?

Zhaolan has written us back.

She must've figured it out.

You wait here.

We'll come to you

after the discussion.

You stay here in the water.

Yandan,

I've been in the mortal world

for 20 years.

Seems like I don't have a chance to get married.

So,

Linlang and Zilin's wedding is tomorrow.

Let's be happy, okay?

What are you talking about?

All of us are happy.

I'm happy too.

Besides, believe me.

You won't die.

(Withered Stone Palm,)

(as its name suggests,)

(it'll cause stone-like occlusion in the person's meridian.)

(Medicine and power are not able)

(to be injected into the body.)

(No matter how powerful the rescuer is,)

(the power will still be thrown back by the body.)

(If the person who's hit has the symptoms of pulse collision,)

(he'll die in ten days)

(due to the inability of regulating the basis.)

(There's no cure for this palm.)

(I suggest you not cast a spell recklessly.)

(Or it'll cause danger to yourself,)

(causing you two to die.)

Yandan,

eat something.

[Blood as spirit, sudden force as lead, draw invisible magic,]

[then rebuild the body.]

I found it.

Yumo, Yumo.

I found it.

Look.

In this Taisu Scriptures,

there are 81 stances.

Every move and every stance

is able to heal and prolong life.

I can save Tangzhou now.

I'm able to save his life!

Yandan.

Zhaolan said

this palm is incurable.

If you insist on using power to save him,

the power will be thrown back into your body.

It's useless.

What to do, then?

I'm asking you what I should do now.

Should I sit by and watch him die

without doing anything?

Sorry.

I...

I didn't mean to lose my temper with you.

I'm just...

It's alright.

Yandan,

Tangzhou is my blood brother.

I certainly hope that he could be well and alive.

I know.

If Tangzhou dies,

you'll be heartbroken.

I didn't expect you to give up on him.

I've sent all the Spirit Soldiers

down the mountain to find the clues of Dizhi.

If they find it,

perhaps his power will be stabilized.

This is what Yelan Mountain owes Tangzhou.

We'll try our best to repay him.

For the time being,

he'll only be happy

if you are.

Am I right?

Yumo,

thank you.

Thanks.

You're running out of breath.

Yet, you still want to be a wedding officiant.

Wait till the wedding ends,

I can die without regret.

After I die,

you go find a new master.

(If you die,)

(there's no master I can serve in this world.)

I have a qi-gathering method that might be worth trying.

It's useless.

Yandan and Yumo

have gone through all the codes of the Divine Realm.

It's unsolvable.

Using qi-gathering methods is time-consuming.

Stop fussing around.

This method of mine is totally different.

If you learn it,

perhaps you could make it to tomorrow's wedding.

How is it? Do you want to learn it?

I won't learn spiritual spells.

You're my sword master.

How could I possibly harm you?

Come on, give it a go.

Forget about the five senses.

Empty the six perceptions.

Reverse the mysteries.

(I'm cursed,)

(and I can't reveal your origin.)

(But I made you learn)

(your father's unique skill,)

(Eternal Darkness.)

(As long as you survive through this,)

(you'll achieve the same goal sooner or later.)

(We, Asura Clan, could fulfill our wish as well.)

All of you, kneel down.

Your Majesty,

this is the last batch of slaves from the Lingbai Clan.

Congratulations, Your Majesty.

With the help of their spiritual power,

it'll bring your Eternal Darkness to perfection.

Ingesting the slaves can strengthen the cultivation base.

It can make our soldiers unbeatable.

But our clan is destined to have a short lifespan.

With this disadvantage, it's hard for us to achieve greatness.

If we have

the Primordial Lord,

Ranqing's Seven Luminaries Jade,

we'll be able to engulf the others' lives.

A life for a thousand years.

Then, we could be invincible.

We've sent people to the Heavenly Realm

to steal the jade many times.

But all of them are no match for Ranqing.

That's because she hasn't met me.

Xuanye,

you killed my whole clan

and tried to absorb my spiritual power.

I'd rather kill myself than let you have your way!

Live or die,

it's up to me.

Your Majesty,

Ranqing is here.

Perfect timing.

(Once you learn Eternal Darkness today,)

(it'll be deeply embedded in your body.)

(And it'll automatically run in it.)

(When you reach a profound level of this cultivation over time,)

(there's no one)

(in the world can handle your Asura divine power.)

(Wait until the Asura Clan rules the Three Realms,)

(your late father)

(will be pleased with that.)

-I don't want to go. -Come on.

Come on. Be good.

Let's go.

How about this?

Here.

You take this.

You go.

No.

Thanks to Tangzhou.

Or else Father wouldn't agree

to our marriage.

No matter what,

we have to send the wedding cake to him in person

as a token of appreciation. Let's go.

Forget about it.

Tortoise.

Be honest with me.

Do you have a history with him?

Or else why would you say

it makes you feel sick when you see him?

I don't.

I don't know why

I'll feel sick when I see him.

Speaking of which,

we, divine tortoises, don't have a natural enemy.

Right?

Then, let's go.

No.

Be nice to him.

Tangzhou.

It's him.

I can't believe it's actually him.

Who?

Here you go again.

Tortoise!

Tortoise!

Tortoise!

I found you.

Come out.

What's the matter?

Is it because you don't want to marry me?

No.

It's because...

It's because...

[Kill all who flip a tortoise]

"Kill all who flip a tortoise."

What does it mean?

Fine.

I'll tell you.

Actually,

before I managed to turn into human form,

I was just an ordinary little tortoise.

But when I was in heaven,

there was a deity

who always came to flip me.

I was flipped around.

Again and again.

He flipped me around every day.

I never had a day

where I was conscious and felt good in heaven.

The person who flipped me

was Tangzhou.

No wonder

I feel sick when I see him.

Why are you laughing merrily?

Are you feeling embarrassed

that you don't want to marry me?

All the more reason for me to marry you.

So that

I can protect you in the future.

No one will dare to flip you again.

Only I can flip you.

Why do you have the needle and thread that the mortals use?

Are you going to stab the tortoise shell

with the needles like the hedgehog do?

Then, no one will dare to flip you again, right?

This is

a wedding gift I prepare for you.

Well,

close your eyes.

Why?

Why are you being secretive?

Open your eyes.

That day when we were trapped in the cave,

I watched them cut your tail,

but I could do nothing about it.

Now, I made one for you.

At least it's a little compensation for you.

Where did you find this?

Stop asking so many questions.

Just tell me

if you like it or not.

The bones in the fox tail.

Where is your tail?

Where is it?

Where did it go?

Are you a fool?

Where did it go?

I don't want you to do this for me!

Where is your tail?

Anyway, I won't reveal my true form

before the mortals.

With or without a tail, it makes no difference.

It's just a spine.

It's okay.

I still have my shell.

I'll be fine even with a few bones less.

Look at this.

I know

that you like pretty things.

The bone don't look good in its original form.

So I learn the way the mortals do.

I knitted it with wool.

Don't worry.

After we get married,

I'll practice hard.

I promise

that no one can bully you in the future.

I believe you.

But...

isn't our wedding tomorrow?

I'm already your bride.

I can't wait until tomorrow.

Just leave the wedding planning to me.

With your condition, you should stay in the hot spring.

But you insist on coming here.

Are you worried?

I'm in good condition.

And I'm not worried.

I just

want to come here with you

to see what a wedding looks like

and to know how

the marriage work.

The procedure is complicated.

To get the bride out of the sedan chair,

the groom has to shoot arrows.

Then, cross the saddle.

They have to get married and swear.

They also have to propose a toast.

At last,

they have to tie their discarded hair together and thank the matchmaker.

That's complicated.

What if something goes wrong?

This is a good question.

If I make a mistake,

I guess the Leader of the Fox Clan will beat me to death in public.

How about this?

Let's have a rehearsal.

After we're familiar with it,

we can still save the situation even if something goes wrong.

Yandan.

This is

the only time I act as a marriage officiant.

I hope that nothing will go wrong.

But the procedures are too complicated and long.

If you leave the hot spring for a long time,

I'm afraid you won't be able to take it.

Isn't it good to have a long procedure?

What?

Nothing.

I can manage.

Rest assured.

Yandan,

don't you like acting?

You claim yourself as the top actress in Yelan Mountain.

What now?

Are you afraid of embarrassing yourself?

The groom shoots three arrows.

Get rid of all the bad luck.

Be careful.

Don't shoot me.

Play your role.

Focus.

It's all your part now.

My part?

By right, the groom and the bride have to thank the matchmaker.

But they don't have one.

They can only thank you.

Moreover, you've got to give them a return gift.

Have you thought of the gift yet?

Linlang

likes something flashy.

Zilin likes something fun.

I got it.

It turns out

that being with someone you like

is such a happy thing.

Groom and bride, please thank the matchmaker.

Here you go again.

Don't move.

What's wrong with Zilin?

He always feels nauseous.

He'll feel better after covering his head.

Yes.

Why do you keep hiccupping?

Mr. Tang, thanks for your help.

Bow to him.

May you always be of one heart

and be in love with no doubts.

Mr. Tang, please give them your return gift.

As for my gift,

it can't fit in the Mountain Chief Hall.

Please follow me to the outside of the hall.

What is Mountain Chief going to give them?

Kun?

Why would you...

I've been dreaming

of this mythological beast lately.

Yandan,

I need your help

to complete this.

Follow me.

This is immortal power.

Sir,

there's no marriage

that is more luxurious and decent than this.

Linlang is having a grand wedding!

Yes, you're right.

Yes.

(I'd rather die in these seven days.)

(That mysterious man is under Shared-Fate Spell.)

(His soul will be scattered with mine.)

(As he uses a lot of immortal power,)

(he's trying to blow himself up.)

Tangzhou,

don't be silly!

Come down here now!

It's such a lovely night.

It's a good view to enjoy the night.

Mountain Chief,

don't be so petty.

Tangzhou,

Yumo is right.

Your vest is damaged.

It'll consume more of your immortal power.

Hurry up and go back down.

Just let me be willful for once.

Yandan...

have you ever had feelings for me?

♪I followed you across the endless seas♪

♪Reluctant to leave you♪

I can't do that.

Very well.

♪It seems too hard to profess my love♪

So that you won't feel sad

even if I die.

I won't let you die.

♪Thinking about how to let go of my endless longing for you♪

Yandan,

if I survive through these seven days

and that mysterious man breaks the Shared-Fate Spell

and comes after me again,

how am I going to protect you?

I'm not afraid to die.

I just

can't accept the worst-case scenario.

Which is him hurting you in front of me.

♪To not let you down in this life♪

♪I won't fear missing you after the reincarnation♪

♪If I took a last glimpse of you♪

Yandan,

how much I hope

and that you could fall in love with me first.

It'd be nice if there was an afterlife.

♪Like the morning dew, I'm willing to sink in deeply♪

If there was an afterlife...
