The Journey Across the Night: Compassion in the Darkness The emergence of the Dragon Saber and the Heaven Sword triggers a fierce struggle for possession within the martial arts world. Various martial arts sects fight to the death over them, resulting in countless casualties. Although the righteous and the evil are irreconcilably opposed, this conflict over the saber and sword gives rise to several marital and ill-fated bonds between the two sides. Cheung Cheui Saan, the fifth disciple of Wudang, and Yan Sou Sou, the enchantress of the Heavenly Eagle Sect, meet while competing for the Dragon Saber and develop a deep and passionate love. However, fate plays a cruel trick; their union ultimately ends in tragedy, with them taking their own lives to atone for their sins and dying for love. What is righteous and what is evil lies not in one's identity, but in one's heart. Through a series of coincidences, Cheung Mo Gei, the son of the righteous descendant Cheung Cheui Saan, is forced to assume the position of leader of an evil cult and dedicates his life to breaking down the barriers between righteousness and evil. Mo Gei is by nature indecisive and emotionally rich, which entangles him in a love triangle with Chow Chi Yuek of the Emei Sect and Chiu Mun, the Mongol princess.

Reviews
People tend to overlook/neglect this version
Really good drama. The build-up for Zhang Wuji was really good and the fighting scenes didn't feel like an overload of CGI. In comparison to the 2019 version, this version has a good balance of martial arts and CGI. Also important to note that the CGI back in 2001 was not that advanced, which meant the actors had to put more emphasis on the martial arts and acting as opposed to purely relying on the CGI. Also let's not even get started with the outfits for the 2001 Wuji and the 2019 Wuji. The 2001 Wuji actually had outfits that fit his character, in comparison to the 2019 version, where the costumes looked funky for the Wuji, making him look very bland. Lawrence Ng did a really good for this role, and Gigi Lai's acting made her seem very sassy, which is a plus for a character like Zhao Min.
