The martial arts technique was developed by Chong Ye (Xue Zhi's dad) and Yuwen Yu Pan (Mu Yuan's dad), so it belonged…
Thanks. I know this is what the story line is, but it doesn't make any sense to me. If it is that important, make a copy. Also, doesn't seem reasonable that no one else in the sect has practiced any part of it or knows anything about it. Still only on episode 9 now. I'm enjoying the series, but the story line seems a bit weak, so far.
So, I'm only on episode 6. Although I'm enjoying the drama (I'm an easy sell!), I am really bugged by one question. Why is there only one copy of this major martial arts technique that everyone is after - and also condemns? Other than that, I'm happily watching just to see the a few of the characters from Ashes of Love together again. :D
There is a fully subbed version out on Amazon Prime Video that is 2 hours 16 minutes long - a full 45 minutes longer than all the references I could find (including MDL). It was really good and I can't imagine it without the missing 45 minutes. If you can, seek out the longer version. It will be worth the effort!
This is a six episode mini series. If you find the episodes separately, like I did on Amazon Prime Video (w/Eng subs), here is the watch order and episode synopsis:
Episode 1) Pilgrimage - Voyage into a world of Chinese Kung-fu and epic fantasy in this adventure tale of a young monk's quest to find the truth of good and evil with a band of brave adventurers.
Episode 2) Adventure on Alien Land - A gang of brave warriors, The Mutants, take a dangerous journey into the unknown in this action drama. Uncovering a secret conspiracy involving kidnapped children, the Mutants band together against great evil.
Episode 3) Undercurrent - In this tale of martial arts action, a band of adventurers led by a young monk embark on a dangerous quest to find the truth of good and evil. Facing off against poisonous grass, deadly rivers, and nefarious forces, the Mutants fight to find their true powers.
Episode 4) White Bone Lady - In this martial arts action-adventure, a band of rebels, the Mutants, fight through treacherous conditions and evil forces to uncover a conspiracy. What is the true secret of the White Bone Lady?
Episode 5) The Disputed Fate - In this martial arts action adventure, a fearless group, the Mutants, band together on a journey of sacrifice and danger. Together, they face off against an evil group killing off innocents.
Episode 6) Ultimate War - In this martial arts action-adventure epic, a group of brave warriors, the Mutants, march into a final battle against evil. Can the Mutants unlock the true powers of the the ancient Pangu?
I don't know what they have planned, but this could easily turn into a trilogy. There will (MUST) be a part two at some point!
It's a cliffhanger, but it ends in a good place in this very long story. The movie covers a lot of ground in a 100 minutes and leaves you looking forward to the continuation. There's still much more to come.
Fingers crossed that they keep the same main cast!
