Meng Tian chases the female warrior and Tou Man. He dodges a spear that suddenly flies at him through the air and his army is confronted by soldiers in a mountain gorge ahead. Thinking they are disorganized slaves of the Northern Wolves, Meng Tian decides to charge, but finds that they are highly disciplined Roman Legionnaires and cause many casualties against Meng Tian's cavalry. Meng Tian and the leader of the Legionnaires face off. Back in the ice cavern, Tianming approaches the mysterious woman, but ice forms over his feet and then covers his whole body. She tells Tianming he is in a place of eternal winter and no life can survive there. In a vision Tianming sees his predecessor, Yan Dan. The woman appears to read his thoughts and is surprised to hear Dan is dead. When Yan Dan inquires about what happened to him and how Tianming came to possess his inner strength, Tianming becomes suspicious. The vision of Dan morphs into the three legged crow and Tianming breaks himself out of the ice. He summons the sword Momei, but it is easily taken from him by the woman, who appears familiar with Mohist arts, the former Mohist leader and Momei.
