[Burning Flames]

[Episode 33]

Hei Long asked us to submit

to the Immortal Clan

and let the Sea Realm

we've lived in for generations

become a barrier to protect the Immortal Realm.

Did you agree?

No.

The ancestor of Sea Spirit Clan

led his people to fight bravely,

but they were

massacred by the immortals.

Even my ancestor

was beheaded.

Hei Long is too powerful.

We are brave

and good at fighting,

but though we went all out,

we were still no match for them.

After conquering us

and occupying our sea,

immortals would join in the battle.

Those who resisted

were killed.

Only a few survived.

Now,

they've all become slaves of Immortal Clan,

guarding the Lost Sea for generations.

For whatever reason,

those who go to

Immortal Realm through the Lost Sea

will be killed by Father.

Our Sea Spirit Clan

has protected the sea for generations

and helped

lost ships as our duty.

But now, I can't accept

Father's choice.

There was

a mortal king who was oppressed by Immortal Clan too.

I can understand

your father's choice,

but I don't agree.

Since you

don't agree,

why don't you try to resist?

How do you know I didn't?

Behind Father's back,

I guided

the lost ships

and helped those

who were in danger at sea.

But Father found out.

He locked me

in this forbidden Sealed Abyss,

where I also felt the divine awareness

of my ancestor.

He told me

the mortal hero to overthrow Immortal Clan

will eventually appear.

With the help of my ancestor,

I escaped from my father's

confinement.

My ancestor's words

rekindled my hope.

He told me

that one day,

someone will lead us

to overthrow Immortal Clan.

Overthrow them?

But I've lost all my divine power.

It's fine.

Don't be afraid.

My ancestor will help us.

Let's go.

Not bad.

Under my guidance,

your Crystal Glory has improved greatly.

Your guidance?

Just with your

Kongshi power?

Dream on.

Don't forget

I helped you

return to Immortal Realm.

Otherwise, you'd still

be a slave in the mortal realm

with no dignity.

I don't need

a mere priest like you

to tell me about my dignity.

It seems the Sea Spirit ancestor died

because he stood up for his values,

just like my father.

Ancestor.

I brought the mortal hero Wu Geng

to see you.

Ancestor?

Ancestor! Are you there?

Have you seen

your ancestor?

No.

I only heard his summons,

but I've never seen him.

Don't touch it.

Father said,

after Ancestor was killed,

his head and body were to be kept separate.

Whoever touches the body

or worships Ancestor

will be cursed

and doomed forever.

So over the years,

Father has never been here

and never worshiped my ancestor.

The immortals even tried to

control people's minds,

threatening the enslaved Sea Spirits

with

such a vicious curse.

They can't worship their ancestor?

Do you dare fight against Immortal Clan?

Your ancestor is a hero.

I'll put it back for you.

It's an honor to meet you.

I'm Bei,

Sea Spirit King's youngest daughter.

I'm Wu Geng.

Greetings.

My soul stayed intact

in the depths of

this forbidden place

for 100,000 years

just for today.

I've finally met the mortal God of War

capable of overthrowing

the immortal tyrants!

Why is there

no power in your body?

If you're the one in the prophecy

who'd defeat Hei Long,

why are you so weak

and have no fighting spirit?

Ancestor!

Bei!

Immortal Clan destroyed my country and family.

Even the person I love

is manipulated by them.

Not only did she turn against me

but also killed

my friends.

If I could,

I'd barge into Immortal Realm now

to take revenge.

No fighting spirit?

I was just harmed

by White Lotus Great Sage's sneak attack

and lost my power for now.

Yes, Ancestor.

When I saved him at sea,

he was half dead.

Useless.

Useless!

You couldn't even defeat

a mere Sage.

How can you defeat Hei Long?

It's disadvantageous for us

right now,

but my comrades and I

have never been disheartened.

Whether it's the Great Sage

or Hei Long,

I believe

my comrades

will defeat them some day.

You're practically useless now.

Give up the fight against Immortal Clan

and I'll spare your life.

I will never give up.

Even if the future

is dangerous?

Even if I die!

Okay.

Wu Geng?

Is he dead?

Geng.

You must control your own fate

and protect our people.

Protect Xin State.

Geng.

Geng.

You'll bear

unprecedented hardships.

Only in this way

can you find

your own path.

Wu Geng.

Do you remember your true enemy?

Wu Geng.

Who is it?

-Wu Geng. -Wu Geng. -Wu Geng.

You carry

our hope.

We must defeat Hei Long together.

Your Highness.

Only you can lead us

to defeat Immortal Clan.

Gou, you promised me

you'd abolish slavery

and free the world.

-Geng. -Your Highness.

Live well.

Live well.

Only by surviving can there be hope.

You told me that.

If we don't eliminate Immortal Clan,

Xin State will never be at peace.

If you really care for the country,

you should fight

for the Xin people

to the death!

Thank you

for helping me break the seal

and regain my power.

Ultimately,

your willpower

was what broke the seal.

It was due to your determination.

Even the slightest waver

could've caused you

to fail.

Wu Geng, come here.

Ancestor, this is...

This is my remaining divine power.

A corpse like me

has no use for it.

Now I'm giving it all to you.

You must defeat Immortal Clan

and lead my people to freedom.

Not just Sea Spirit Clan

but everyone in the three realms

is dependent on you.

Thank you, Ancestor.

Bei.

You should know what this is.

With the Water Command,

you can command all Sea Spirits.

Now the Sea Spirit Clan is in danger.

Bei, as my descendant,

you must take the responsibility

and resolve our crisis.

I understand.

I

will not let you down.

Wu Geng.

Bei was imprisoned because she disobeyed

Sea Spirit King.

She was already poisoned,

but even more injured now because she absorbed

all the cold poison

in your body

in order to save you.

You must find a way

to save her.

Ancestor.

I will heal Bei

and protect her.

The last of my soul

has dissipated.

Now, everything

is on you.

I finally met you,

Wu Geng.

Ancestor?

Ancestor!

Ancestor.

Ancestor.

He's gone.

Bei.

After we overthrow

Immortal Clan's rule,

let's return here to repair

the Sealed Abyss

so Ancestor can rest in peace.

Come on.

You're injured.

I'll take you back to Shenyin Village.

My friends there

can heal you.

I'm fine.

We have to leave now,

lest Father find out.

Okay.

Why can't I see anything?

Do my Eyes of Prophecy

no longer work?

Wu Geng is dead and can't cause trouble

anymore.

Immortal King's threat is gone too.

Of course you can't see anything.

It is Wu Geng's fortune

to die in my hands.

Don't be mistaken.

I killed him.

You did contribute

to his death.

But if it weren't for my good plan,

you might

still be meekly by Wu Geng's side

as his personal maid.

Where are you going?

I've spent much time in the mortal world

without cultivation.

The Crystal Glory in my body

is too weak.

I need to

strengthen it.

I have an idea

to enhance your divine power.

What is this place?

This is the Immortal Prison.

Those locked in cages are traitors

who disrespected

Immortal King.

I do sense

intense

rebellious sentiments here.

Xinyue Kui!

You heartless lackey!

Kill me if you dare!

Look at him.

How pitiful.

Be it an immortal,

mortal, or demon,

one is most scared when in face of death

because of

the inescapable

despair.

And the energy of fear

is greatly beneficial

to Crystal Glory.

It's urgent to protect the Heaven Way.

Since the Heaven Way is damaged,

he's pointless in this world.

Xinyue Kui!

You helped Hei Long to kill your people.

You'll die a horrible death!

High Priest!

It's not my fault.

I was bewitched by Fu Xi

and those traitors!

Please let me go.

Please let me go.

Please.

Please let me go.

Please let me go.

Please let me go.

Please let me go.

Please let me go.

Please let me go.

Please let me go.

Please let me go.

Please let me go.

High Priest, I beg you.

Please, High Priest.

The energy of fear

is indeed very helpful.

When your Crystal Glory

is at its peak,

I'll offer you

to Immortal King.

Bei.

Your cold poison

is getting worse.

Wu Geng.

You're the only one

who can free Sea Spirit Clan

from Immortal Clan's

control.

It's nothing to suffer for you.

Bei.

Hang in there.

I'll take you

to Clan Leader Kong Que for treatment.

Let's go.

Bei.

Here.

Wu Geng.

Put me down.

Take a break.

Bei.

We're at Shenyin Village.

We'll meet

Clan Leader Kong Que soon.

It's beautiful here.

Sea Spirits

are guardians of the sea

and ordered not to leave the sea.

All my life,

I've never

gone beyond

my family's island.

I've never seen

such a scene.

Sea Spirits

were not free before.

It's good

you came on land now.

The land is vast,

with mountains, fields,

and the endless Gobi desert.

From now on,

you can go

wherever you want.

Wu Geng.

On land,

you're my only friend.

I'll rely on you from now on.

You must take me

to all those places

you mentioned.

Of course.

Would I run away?

I'll make some medicine

for you later.

You should be fine.

Thank you, Clan Leader.

The Immortality power is awesome.

It no longer hurts.

Clan Leader Kong Que.

Bei saved me.

She's a Sea Spirit.

Her father

is the Sea Spirit King

who guards the Lost Sea.

Bei has decided

to join us

as a guide in our invasion

of Immortal Realm.

That's great.

With the Sea Spirit Clan's help,

we won't get lost at sea.

I'll help you get through the Lost Sea

successfully.

For Wu Geng,

I'm not afraid of being captured

by my father again.

Thank you, Bei.

If the Sea Spirits

need my

help,

just tell me.

I really need you now.

I need you to decoct medicine for me

and defeat Hei Long for Sea Spirits

so we're no longer enslaved.

Don't worry.

I can do it.

Brat.

You're so lucky.

All of them

are so devoted to you.

You've accumulated

many injuries over a long time.

I couldn't heal everything.

To fully recover,

you need to rest well.

For now,

stay at Shenyin VIllage.

Let me know if you need anything.

Thank you, Clan Leader Kong Que.

Your Highness!

Your Highness!

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

General An.

How are you?

I knew...

you'd be fine.

You have to lead us

to invade Immortal Realm

and avenge His Majesty.

This time,

I survived,

but Lan and Zi Dian...

What?

What happened to them?

To save me,

they were killed by Bai Cai.

What?

No wonder they didn't respond

when I contacted them

with Dragon Whale Incense.

Lan and Zi Dian...

What

happened to Bai Cai?

Gou.

Gou, help me.

Gou.

Zi Dian!

Zi Dian!

Lan!

Wu Geng.

What's your plan?

Their deaths

made me reflect.

Bai Cai alone

caused us many casualties.

There are many powerful immortals.

We can't defeat them

just by having

more people.

We'll just be annihilated

like Xin State did.

Yes.

Not only do they have 100 Immortal Groups

but also the three Great Sages.

Each of them

can match

1,000 mortals.

So I want to go to Illusion Island

to refine qi.

Illusion Island?

Yes.

It's the island of refined qi.

Everything on the island

is made of qi.

A year there

is a day here.

So I can make

great improvement

in a short time.

Okay.

I'll arrange a boat

to escort you to Illusion Island.

General An.

It's not an ordinary island.

You can't go there by boat.

Only strong refined qi

can send one to Illusion Island.

Uncle Ziyu will take me there.

Your Highness.

You're alone.

Take care.

Don't worry.

General An.

Go back to Northern Mountain Mine

and pick some strong mortal warriors

who can

refine qi.

When I reach Illusion Island,

I'll ask the island chief

to allow mortal warriors

to refine qi there.

I'll pick you up then.

Great.

I'll wait for you

at Northern Mountain Mine.

Uncle Ziyu.

Shang?

Why are you here?

Gou, long time no see.

Shang.

You've changed a lot.

I almost didn't recognize you.

After we said goodbye at the mine,

you disappeared.

Everyone's worried about you.

Why are you on Illusion Island?

After escaping from the mine,

I kept running east,

fearful of being hunted down by immortals.

But I still

ran into trouble.

Venerable Bai Yue of Illusion Island

saved me.

So,

I followed him here

and became his disciple

to refine qi.

Great.

The human race, Demon Clan,

and Shenyin Clan

who're dissatisfied with Hei Long

have joined forces.

I'm here to persuade

the island chief

to allow mortal warriors

to come here to refine qi.

Shang.

We need more power.

Join us.

Chief

won't allow you

to cultivate here for war.

She experienced

the ancient Immortal Clan war

and witnessed

Immortal Clan's endless conquests

over 100,000 years.

That's why she hates warfare.

If she knows how atrocious

Hei Long and Immortal Clan are,

she should understand

we're trying to

free all three realms

from these

endless conquests.

It's because

she knows the cruelty of war

that she stays away from all that.

She built this happy land

with refined qi,

believing that

the way to change the world

is creation, not destruction.

The world's being destroyed

as everyone is

enslaved by immortals.

So,

we must use force.

But the price

will be

massive bloodshed.

Illusion Island chose

rebirth

instead of revenge.

You're

so powerful,

yet you ignore those trampled and killed

by immortals.

It's not rebirth

but escapism.

Chief

thinks all lives matter,

including

immortals' lives.

She used her power to help everyone.

But humans abused their power

to bring bloodshed.

Just like Xin King.

It's clearly the immortals

who're abusing their power.

My father wanted

to free mortals from

the immortals' oppression,

so he

risked his life.

Father?

Yes.

I'm Wu Geng, son of Xin King.

I see.

After the fall of Xin State,

the Bai Army killed my mother.

Do you...

Do you think

challenging the immortals is noble?

So many innocent people

are implicated!

How can they be sacrificed

just for your

noble ideals?

Under the immortals' tyranny,

no one can be free.

Only by defeating

the mastermind Hei Long

can the three realms be at peace.

Because

you claim so,

so many innocents

have to be sacrificed?

If you act so wilfully,

you'll only repeat

your father's failure.

He didn't fail.

He let everyone know that

no one has rights under the immortals' rule.

When have you and your father

ever given anyone

the right to choose?

The weak

have no rights;

not even

the right to live.

What we're doing now

is to let the people

regain their dignity

and

have the right to live!

Release!

Silver Shield!

The stronger the will,

the heavier it gets.

The greater it is...

The tougher it is.

Colorless power?

Years ago,

I was coincidentally

guided

by the island chief.

I heard she built an illusion island...

where everyone

is truly equal.

That's right.

That's the island chief's wish.

The island's people

will never be involved in killing.

Indeed.

Building a new world

is a beautiful wish.

But if one day

the three realms are wiped out,

can Illusion Island stay aloof?
