Private Notes
This episode recaps main elements of the story so far, and with Yue-er wondering about her identity. We see a huge hill-top wall and fortress complex being built by the Qin with forced labour - the beginning of the Great Wall. A huge statue falls during the construction, one of the setbacks bedeviling the project, pushing the deadline back 85 days. The frustrated Yíng Zhèng, Emperor of the Qin Dynasty demands that it be completed in 30 days. Ziming and Ziyu are still in Shanghai and see a procession of 500 Immortal Child Fairies who were allegedly chosen by the Lord in the Clouds/Yun Zhong Jun, the ship's owner, board the floating city, Mirage. Meanwhile Da Tie Chui and Dao Zhi attack a Qin convoy who are disguised as travelling traders. News about the attack travels back to the Emperor's palace and Li Si alleges that there may be a spy within the empire.
Angry at the loss of the Black Dragon Scroll by the Qin convoy attacked by Da Tie Chui and Dao Zhi, Li Si suggests that they use the Net Trap organization to trap the informer. Near Shanghai, Zifang and Wei Zhuang meet and fight to a draw, and then discuss the political situation in the new era. Wei Zhuang blames the Chivalrous Heroes for the current chaos in the country, but Zifang disagrees. They intercept an agent of the Net Trap organization who was monitoring their meeting. On their way back, Wei Zhuang and Crimson Snake pass Shengqi and recognize his sword Juque. Meanwhile Zhao Gao and his Net Trap group are seen traveling to Shanghai, and the Moon Goddess presents a small copper box containing immense potential to the Lord in the Clouds on the Mirage.
The Confucian students compete in a horse race which Ziyu wins convincingly, with the rest following well behind and Ziming arriving a very distant last. A Net Trap agent tells Shengqi their plans, to kill Ge Nie without mercy. Ziyu follows Shi Lan and finds that she is taking food to someone hiding in the woods. Xun Zi has Ziming bring the very rare Blood-Stained Jade Leaf Flower to revive Duanmu whose heart meridian was injured by a sharp blade which carried internal energy. However because of her strong resistance to medicine developed over the years Xun Zi requires the addition the Artemisia Snow Wolf Poison first to create a Yin Yang process within her body. However Xun Zi is told that Meng Tian has confiscated all medicines and taken them to the Mirage for some unknown purpose.
Da Siming appears as an old lady at the Confucian headquarters and captures a Mohist Ah Zhong, who is interrogated by Star Wraith to find the location of the Mohists. Zhao Gao and his Net Trap group arrive in Shanghai and meets Li Si who sends them to retrieve the Black Dragon Scroll. The Mohists have the scroll but it is protected by Gonshu Clan’s mechanisms. Shengqi challenges Wei Zhuang and the battle commences on an old bridge.
Master Ban tries to break the Gonshu Clan’s locking mechanisms on the scroll. Li Si briefs Zhao Gao and questions him about his search for a special box, that has something to do with the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon. The Quicksand group find the scene of the battle between Shengqi and Wei Zhuang but no sign of either of them. Unparalleled Demon/Wushuang comes across Ziming and attacks him and they both fall into a deep hole.
Crimson Snake forces the Quicksand group to split up and find Wei Zhuang by poisoning them and controlling the antidote. Ziming escapes Wushuang, but when he has the opportunity, cannot kill him because he realizes they are alike in many ways. While following Shi Lan, Ziyu sees White Phoenex on his search for Wei Zhuang, and later they are found by Hidden Bat. On his return to the Confucians school Ziming finds a secret passage in Master Ban’s room, leading to an underground storage area with many machines, and accidentally triggers a defense mechanism on the Black Dragon Scroll.
Star Wraith finds the location of the Mohists and the Emperor sends General Meng and the elite Golden Flame soldiers to Shanghai to retrieve the Black Dragon Scroll. Shi Lan and Ziyu fight Hidden Bat but are saved from death by a huge black cat that appears to be an ally of Shi Lan. Wei Zhuang encounters a mysterious figure who causes him to question his motives and who his real enemy is. As General Meng’s troops approach The Confucians retreat, they encounter Ge Nie, now the number one wanted criminal in the empire, who asks the general and his troops to turn back.
Shi Lan and Ziyu manage to escape Hidden Bat on the back of her huge black cat, Blackie. Ge Nie confronts General Meng and attacks him directly with a wooden sword, but he is interrupted by the sudden appearance of Star Wraith who attacks him. They fight to a stand-off, then General Meng advances his troops to attack Ge Nie as a fog approaches. Meng discovers that Ge Nie’s attack was a diversion created to allow Dao Zhi to free Ah Zhong the Mohist prisoner who was being forced to reveal the location of the Mohists. Ziyu (Xiang Shaoyu) shares his feelings of loneliness with Shi Lan who reveals that her real name is Xiao Yu from the Mount Shu clan.
Back at their headquarters with the Confucians, the Mohists, discuss their strategy, and the power of Star Wraith who can use his Yin and Yang skills create a deadly blade from thin air. Although General Meng failed to capture Ne Gie and find the Mohist’s hideout, Emperor Ying Zheng realises that they are close to finding them, and redoubles his efforts. Master Ban reveals that he had extracted the Black Dragon Scroll from the mechanism before Tianming (Ziming) triggered the defence system, but the text is written in a code. They entrust the scroll to Ziming to take it to Shanghai for Zhang Liang (Zifang) the Third Manager of Confucians to decipher. Zhang Liang had stayed in the city overnight at Pao Ding's inn because of the curfew, and encounters Gongsun Linglong in the early morning. She artfully interrogates him about his movements, but is interrupted by Ziming who distracts her by calling her “fat aunt” although she suspects that the inn holds some secrets. However, when Ziming gives Zhang Liang the bamboo holder it is empty, the scroll is not there.
Ziming is distraught at losing the Black Dragon Scroll and retraces his steps to find it. While looking for the scroll in a bamboo forest, Ziming comes across the five senior Confucian students stoning Wushuang who is still in the deep hole. Ziming argues with Zimu and while trying to stop him, realises that Zimu has the scroll, just before falling into the deep hole himself. The students return to the Confucian Junior Sage Village and lie about what happened. Wushuang seems to understand the friendship and help Ziming has offered him, and so he helps Ziming escape from the hole. Zimu is questioned about what happened to Ziming, but because he and the other students lie about it, are punished by having to copy a Confucius scroll when Ziming returns unscathed. While the students fall asleep that night while copying the scroll, a masked Ziming creeps and attempts in to steal the scroll from Zimu.
Ziming manages to retrieve the scroll from Zimu, but not without causing the students some embarrassment and extra punishment for falling asleep. Ziming finally delivers the Black Dragon Scroll to Zhang Liang (Zifang). Meanwhile Crimson Snake dreams of the past and her relationship with Wei Zhuang. Zifang is invited to tea with Prime Minister Li Si who talks about Hanfei, a brilliant colleague from Han, but who Zifang said was rumoured to have died in a Qin prison. Li Si confirms this occurred after he offended the emperor by trying to dissuade him from attacking the Han kingdom. Li Si said that Hanfei spoke of the Seven Stars of the Azure Dragon but Zifang had only heard that it was a thousand year old secret that had not yet been revealed. Li Si then raises the name of another old friend, Wei Zhuang.
Ziming wants Master Ban to teach him about mechanisms in preference to the other more artistic skills, and also mentions that Zifang said that he is being watched and must be careful about where he goes. Zifang tells Yan Lu about his meeting with Li Si and the subject of Hanfei. From the description of his death Zifang suspects he died from the Fearsome Curse of the Six Souls, the Yin and Yang forbidden technique. Zifang surmises that his death was in reality because of his possible knowledge of the Seven Stars of the Azure Dragon. He had heard that it had something to do with all seven kingdoms: Qi, Chu, Yan, Zhao, Wei, Han and Qin and that the answer may lie within the floating Mirage City. Under the watchful gaze of the Deity of Clouds, the Moon Goddess asks Qianlong (Yue-er) to open the small copper box as she believes she is the key to the secret of the Azure Dragon. When confronted by the massive amount of literature to read on mechanisms, Ziming doubts that he will ever learn it all, but Master Ban gives him the Exalting Unity Mohist Cube (like aRubik's Cube) and says if he can solve it, he will understand Mohist mechanisms.
Ziming spends days trying to solve the Exalting Unity Mohist Cube and is finally told that only the Mohist leader and Master Ban can solve it. When he realises that he can't solve it, he thinks about how everyone is good at something, but he doesn't know what his strength is. Ge Nie talks to him and encourages him to believe in himself, and not give up. Ziming takes his advice to heart and manages to solve the cube, much to everyone else's amazement, and Master Ban's decides to teach him about Mohist mechanisms.
Li Si has Zhao Gao deploy his Net Trap Organization around Shanghai, including the Confucians Junior Sage Village. Master Ban starts teaching Ziming about Mohist mechanisms and the difference between the Mohist's anti-war mechanisms designed to help people live and work better and the Gongshu mechanisms which are designed for war. He tells Ziming a story of how the Mohists protected the Song Kingdom from attack by the Chu Kingdom who were assisted by the Gongshu Clan’s battle mechanisms, and the animosity that has continued for 300 years. However Master Ban believes that Gongshu Chou has advanced greatly as demonstrated by his creation of the floating Mirage City.
While horse-riding with the Confucian students Ziyu sees Shi Lan leaving the village and turns to follow her but is caught in traps set by a group of bandits. As he is about to engage them in a fight when Ziming arrives on the shoulders of Wushuang so Ziyu leaves to find Shi Lan. Meanwhile, Shi Lan and Blackie have also been caught by the same group, and after beating a number of the bandits, she is confronted by their huge leader. He injures her, but then Ziyu arrives and defeats him. Moments later, Ziming arrives with Wushuang. Then a rider wearing full battle armour and their leader, rides into the camp and challenges Ziyu.
The bandits' leader and Ziyu have a fierce fight on horseback, but both have superb riding and fighting skills and after a long battle, they accept each other’s skills. The leader then removes his helmet and reveals himself to be Xiao Long and they embrace. He is General Long Ju, from the Chu Tribe, and Shaoyu's close friend. He kneels before Shaoyu, calling him your highness. Long Ju was the leader of the Soaring Dragon Army 3 years ago who valiantly defended their positions against the Qin army, inflicting and suffering heavy casualties. Only 16 officers and 218 men remain in the Soaring Dragon Army now, continuing as guerrillas. The king died but gave a tiger-shaped carving to General Long Ju to deliver to his heir Xiang Shaoyu (Ziyu). General Long Ju leads Shaoyu to their hideout which contains the sacred armour of their king, the Seven Ocean Flood Dragon Armour and then the remaining officers all swear allegiance to Shaoyu.
Shaoyu refuses to accept the responsibility of leading the remnants of Soaring Dragon Army into a pointless battle, and leaves. He returns to the Confucians, but is conflicted about his role in life, and despondent about the fate of the Chu people. Zifang takes Ziming and Ziyu for a walk in Shanghai to relieve their boredom and see Gongsun Linglong but manage to avoid her. While crossing a bridge they encounter a local bully harassing a young swordsman they passed earlier in the day. The bully’s taunts become more and more insulting challenging the stranger to either fight him or crawl between his legs to cross the bridge.
The stranger crawls between the bully’s legs and everyone except Zifang thinks he’s a coward. But the bully is unsatisfied and calls the stranger Han Xin by name. When about to attack with his sword, the bully suddenly spins around and collapses after being hit in the face by a shoe thrown by an unknown assailant. The crowd disperses and Zifang stops to greet an elder, Chu Nangong, whom Ziming recognises as being allied with the Qin forces. He reveals himself to be a keen observer and shrewd judge of character. It was he who threw the shoe, not to save Han Xin whom he considers dangerous, but to save the bully from being killed. Zifang sends Ziming to retrieve the shoe, which more difficult than it appears. As Chu Nangong leaves he gives Ziyu some unfathomable words of wisdom, but predicts that the three remaining Chu families will destroy the Qin.
Shaoyu rides back into the Chu camp wearing his royal battle armour and assumes leadership of the remnants of the Soaring Dragon Army. He uses the tiger talisman to call together all of the former troops to fight with the Xiang clan of the Chu Kingdom against the Qin. Meanwhile Shengqi encounters the Net Trap organization who remind him of his instructions to kill Ge Nie, and threaten that if he does not comply, he may never see his brother again. The Quicksand group continue their search for Wei Zhuang and White Phoenix finds traces that he is alive and met someone, but is possibly not ready to rejoin the group. He grows tired of being controlled by Crimson Snake and attacks her.
White Phoenix releases Crimson Snake although there is now strong mistrust between them and he continues the search for Wei Zhuang. Crimson Snake encounters Shengqi and she asks about his battle at the bridge with Wei Zhuang. Shengqi says Wei Zhuang was not strong enough and lost and is past history. She demands more information from him but he dismisses her, saying that it's a fighting man's world, that she's an unworthy opponent, and that she can only await failure and shame. She says she will provide the whereabouts of Ge Nie if he will tell her what happened at the bridge. He agrees and he tells her that as they fell from the shattered bridge, Wei Zhuang used the force of a blow to somersault out of the ravine and did not fall. After telling him that Ge Nie is in Shanghai, which he already knows, she goads him into attacking her. They have a fierce battle but Shengqi is too fast and strong for her, and he leaves her badly wounded. She thinks back to the destruction of the Han Kingdom when Wei Zhuang killed her royal father, and she decided to join him.
Crimson Snake thinks back to her unhappy days as Princess Honglian of the Han Kingdom and her early encounters with Wei Zhuang. Through his influence she became a ruthless fighter, even killing her own master. She recalls her betrothal to the powerful General Ji Wuye who she tried to kill on their wedding night, but just when she was beaten, Wei Zhuang arrived, killed the general, and took his place. She fell in love with him, even though he showed no sentiment or emotional interest in her.
Although badly injured, Crimson Snake is defiant and refuses to provide any more information to Shengqi. The threatens to kill her, but is interrupted by the arrival of White Phoenix. He warns him against Crimson Snake's poison but as a member of the Peasant Family, Shengqi is impervious to poison. White Phoenix says her life belongs to Quicksand, and cannot be taken by him, and bets that he can save her from under Shengqi's sword, Juque. White Phoenix succeeds, but is wounded. The physical and verbal sparring between them continues, while White Phoenix tries to escape with Crimson Snake. They almost evade Shengqi, and White Phoenix is wounded again but they just manage to escape. The wounded White Phoenix demonstrates he is even more stoic than her.
Fu Nian calls Zilu and Zifang before him to punish them for harbouring the Mohist rebels and rejecting the Confucian ideals. Zilu takes responsibility, and Zifang argues that it is the right thing to do, not to sit idly by while injustice occurs. They each argue their cases, using Confucius' own teachings. Old Master Xunzi hears the argument and accuses Fu Nian of selfishly turning in the children, Ziming and Ziyu, to save the school. Meanwhile Li Si seeks assurances from Gongshu Chou that the Mirage will be ready to move when required and the Mohists still try to decipher the Black Dragon Scroll. They realise it will take too long to decode manually and Zifang suggests that Dao Zhi should steal a copper disc with the key to the code from Li Si's headquarters in Shanghai.
With Ge Nie's knowledge of the headquarters' defences, Dao Zhi is able to infiltrate the outer defences to arrive at the Thousand Machines pavilion and enter the building to steal the Thousand Secrets Copper Disc. The building's interior is protected by a Yin and Yang School's Blood Silkworm Array, that can be seen through the light of an amethyst crystal. They are very strong, poisonous and connected to a bell alarm system. With great difficulty and gymnastics, Dao Zhi reaches the disc, only to be confronted by White Phoenix who also wants to steal it.
While following Zifang at night, Ziming and Ziyu see Wei Zhuang before being intercepted by Star Wraith and they are captured. Dao Zhi and White Phoenix fight over the Thousand Secrets Copper Disc, but the alarm is sounded and the building is sealed. White Phoenix beats Dao Zhi and escapes, but Dao Zhi had switched discs and ends up with the real disc and is rescued by Master Ban in his flying mechanism. While flying away on a giant bird, White Phoenix sees Wei Zhuang in the streets below.
White Phoenix is attacked by one of the Gonshu Clan's mechanical birds piloted by a Qin but destroys it. During the fight he sees Priestess of Birth/Shao Siming of the Yin Yang School on a rooftop. Meanwhile as Ziming and Ziyu are being taken by Yin Yang troops to Qin headquarters, Ziming starts acting strangely due to his body heating up and disrupts the troops. Suddenly one of the shrouded Yin Yang group attacks the escort party with superb swordsmanship – it's Zifang with his sword Ling Xu. While Master Ban and Dao Zhi are returning to their base, Shengqi attacks their flying mechanism and Dao Zhi falls into the forest with the Thousand Secrets Copper Disc. Just after Li Si is notified of the theft of the disc, and increased guard is placed on the Emperor. Wei Zhuang appears before Li Si and tells him that he knows of the presence of the Net Trap Organization and Shengqi in Shanghai. Meanwhile Shengqi finds Dao Zhi in the forest and attacks with frightening power and Dao Zhi's arm is trapped by a fallen tree. As Shengqi is about to kill him, Shao Siming appears.
Li Si tells Wei Zhuang that Ge Nie was the one who last captured Shengqi. Shao Siming attacks Shengqi with her Yin Yang powers, while Ge Nie and Zifang rescue Dao Zhi. Ge Nie confronts Shengqi with his wooden sword, but Shengqi asks the whereabouts of his sword Yuan Hong. Ge Nie does not answer, and withdraws. Wei Zhuang continues to question Li Si, about his instructions to Shengqi and the reason behind Hanfei's death. Li Si explains the circumstances of his death, by the Fearsome Curse of the Six Souls. Wei Zhuang knows that although Li Si wanted Hanfei out of the way, he had the secret of the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon. Wei Zhuang cautions Li Si to be careful about future decisions he makes as he is being shadowed by the Quicksand Group, Heiqilin. Back with the Mohists, and badly wounded, Dao Zhi thanks Ge Nie for saving his life, but asks that he does what he can to save Duanmu Rong, before collapsing.
Zifang with Ziyu and Ziming greet the dawn on their way home and watch the city awaken. They meet Chu Nangong who presents Ziming with a gift, the Divine Yellow Stone Scroll, also known as the Divine Book of Taigong. Zifang tells the history of the scroll and its importance. Also its origin and association with the Xuan Yuan Clan, the Yellow Emperor 1,000 years ago and Ziyu's Chu Kingdom ancestor. Although he doesn't understand what it contains, Ziming finally realises its importance.
Master Ban uses the Thousand Secrets Copper Disc to decipher the Black Dragon Scroll and passes the information to the Mohist leaders. Ziming and Ziyu are attracted to a street performance by a troupe of strangers from Mount Shu. Everyone is mesmerized by the fire breathing, juggling act and magic tricks including releasing a flock of butterflies. A feature of the act, a beautiful young girl who emerges from a box, resembles Shi Lan, but she shows no signs of recognising the boys. The next day four shrouded figures pass through the streets of Shanghai and the Priestess of Death appears as well. Gongsun Linglong again sees Zifang in the vicinity of Pao Ding's inn.
Amongst the viewers of the street troupe from Mount Shu are Star Wraith and Deity of Clouds who suspect they have an interest in the Mirage. The Priestess of Death informs them that a small group of Taoists led by Xiao Yao have also arrived in Shanghai. Li Si and General Meng plan their strategy, including spies lying in ambush with the rebel groups. The Taoists meet with the Mohists. On his way to deliver food to the meeting Pao Ding is intercepted by Li Si who says that he'd heard about a banquet being prepared and invites himself to attend at Pao Ding's Youjian Inn. General Meng and Star Wraith arrive at the Confucian's Junior Sage Village with orders to search for rebels. The Mohists and Taoists discuss the information from the Black Dragon Scroll that shows Emperor Ying Zheng was coming to Shanghai on completion of the Mirage. Because the Mirage was built by the Gongshu Clan and Yin and Yang School, they assume that Emperor Ying Zheng will arrive when it is ready to depart, and when the Azure Dragon will be activated. They believe the Mount Shu group are also interested in the Mirage. Ge Nie explains the structure of the Yin and Yang School headed by Deity of Clouds (Xu Fu). He told Emperor Ying Zheng that there are three Immortal Mountains – Penglai, Fangzhang and Yingzhou - outside the East Sea of Shanghai city inhabited by immortals. The aim of the Mirage is to travel there and get the elixir of immortality. Li Si arrives at Pao Ding's Inn and greets the cloaked guests, who reveal themselves to be the Confucian School leaders including Master Xun. Master Xun is rude to Li Si who chooses to ignore the insults and leaves.
General Meng and Star Wraith have surround the Confucian village. They enter a house and find a young woman and a sick person. They leave, however Star Wraith sees the Blood-Stained Jade Leaf Flower and is suspicious. That evening, the Mohists are bitten by golden beetles which paralyses them with the Yin and Yang’s Corpse Deity Sprite Curse which disables their internal skills. They realise that the Qin saw through their disguises and outsmarted them. When Ziming and Ziyu arrive, they are confronted by Star Wraith, Shao Siming and Da Siming of the Ynn and Yang group. General Meng recognises Ziyu (Xiang Shaoyu) who challenges him to a duel which General Meng is too smart to accept. Xiao Yao and Ge Nie emerge to join Tianming (Ziming) and Shaoyu to confront the Yin and Yang group. Even though they have lost their internal skills, they manage to counter Star Wraith’s first attack.
Star Wraith is puzzled at how his attack was countered if the Mohist’s had lost their internal skills. Star Wraith, Shao Siming and Da Siming attack simultaneously, but by using Tianming’s internal skills Xiao Yao and Ge Nie counter the attacks, although Tianming feels the force of their power. Tianming has powerful internal skills handed down from the Mohist leader, although his own skills are poor. Shaoyu uses the Anti-War device to assist in the physical defence, but is badly beaten. Xiao Yao then uses a Taoist technique to successfully counter-attack. Xiao Yao and Ge Nie politely complement each other’s skills, causing doubt in Star Wraith that his plan to remove their internal skills has failed. Star Wraith again attacks using almost all of his power, but is forced back by the combined power of the Mohists and the Anti-War device. General Meng prepares to attack with the Golden Fire Cavalry.
Star Wraith suspects that Tianming is a key as Xiao Yao and Ge Nie have held his hands during the battle. Star Wraith, Shao Siming and Da Siming combine their attacks which puts tremendous pressure on Tianming and they are defeated. The Priestess of Death/Da Siming attacks Tianming to find the secret of his internal power, and sees the Curse Mark of Closed Eyes (or Sleep Sealing Curse) the Moon Goddess put on his neck. However when he is almost completely beaten, he remembers the knife techniques (Cow Dismembering Technique and Kung Pao Chicken) that Pao Ding taught him, and uses the sword mode of the Anti-War device to successfully counter-attack.
Star Wraith suspects that Tianming is a key to the Mohist's strength as Xiao Yao and Ge Nie have held his hands during the battle. Star Wraith, Shao Siming and Da Siming combine their attacks which puts tremendous pressure on Tianming and they are unsuccessful. The Priestess of Death/Da Siming attacks Tianming to find the secret of his internal power, and sees the curse mark of Closed Eyes the Moon Goddess put on his neck. However when he is almost completely beaten, he remembers the knife techniques - like Cow Dismembering Technique and Kung Pao Chicken - taught to him by Pao Ding and uses the sword mode of the Anti-War device to successfully counter-attack.
Tianming continues his attacks with the Anti-War device on the Priestess of Death/Da Siming using all of the culinary styles he learned from Pao Ding, but runs out of recipes. As she makes her final attack Xiao Gao intervenes and takes the full force himself. He hands the sword Momei to Tianming as he is the Mohist leader and he uses to defend them. Shi Lan appears playing a melancholy melody on a flute, and the Mohist leaders disappear, including Duanmu Rong – the Butterfly Dream Escape. The Qin group suspect these are techniques of the Mount Chu clan from the Xinjiang region. Star Wraith believes that the Mohists who disappeared are hiding nearby. He eventually deduces that they are in an underground room and begins to cut through the floor. Meanwhile most of the Mohists escape through an underground corridor, leaving Tianming, Shaoyu and Shi Lan who are then trapped by falling debris. Somehow they find the Zero White Tiger Mohist machine and counter attack the Qin group. Suddenly a Gongshu machinery beast, the Ground Breaking Sanlang arrives and confronts them while another one chases the Mohist leaders in the tunnel below. The Zero White Tiger and Ground Breaking Sanlang continue to fight into the forest.
Li Si informs the Emperor that the rebels have been surrounded, but they may be receiving assistance from others – the Confucian School. The Emperor is sceptical as the Confucians are loyal to the king and asks for proof. Meanwhile the Net Trap Organization pay a visit to Pao Ding’s inn to ask some questions. The Ground Breaking Sanlang continues to chase the Zero White Tiger with the assistance of the Gongshu flying machines. With great skill and gymnastics, Shi Lan manages to destroy the flying machines but they still have to deal with the more powerful Ground Breaking Sanlang which is still chasing them. The chase takes them to the coast, and towards the Mirage. The Emperor receives a message from Xianyang and General Meng and his troops are called back to Shanghai. The Quicksilver group reunite, including Wei Zhuang, and confront the Mohists as they emerge from the escape tunnel. Then Star Wraith arrives.
With the Quicksand group and the Yin And Yang School against them, and their internal powers disabled by the Corpse Deity Sprite Curse the Mohist School leaders seemingly face complete defeat. insultingly just using only one hand, Star Wraith prepares to destroy Ge Nie, but Ge Nie suddenly strikes first, injuring Star Wraith’s hand. Star Wraith and the Yin And Yang School decide to depart rather than continue. Meanwhile, at the last minute, when the Zero White Tiger is about to plunge into the sea, Shaoyu manages to deploy its wings, and it takes flight, escaping the Ground Breaking Sanlang and flying over the mirage. Unfortunately the machine is too old and frail and begins to break apart and they crash onto the Mirage. Zhao Gao informs Li Si that Pao Ding has been arrested and will be interrogated by the Net Trap Organization. As the episode ends, The Xianjian troops attack the Great Wall, Zifang comes between the Quicksand group and the Mohists, and Tianming, Shaoyu and Shi Lan enter the Mirage.
