Legend of Zu - The Amazing Weapons
 " ... the divine-looking cast members are immortals with less personality than their weapons." The Straits Times, August 8, 2001

Now let's take a look at the interesting, imaginative array of weapons in Legend of Zu most of which are formed by energy and entirely CGI. When called forth, they appear out of nowhere and vanish into thin air when unsummoned. 

Golden Wheel of Sun and Moon
Kun-Lun Sect's holy weapon. Consists of Moon Blade and Sun Orb. The crescent shaped Moon Blade is a weapon that orbits around the Sun Orb, the latter of which can be magnified into a spherical barrier big enough to protect its owner from harm. The Golden Wheel of Sun and Moon flies around freely and can be shrunken easily to be kept. It has the ability to recognise and identify its owner. Owned by Abbess Crescent Moon Cheung who later gives to Xuan Tian-Zong.

Divine Dragon Guillotine
Consists of 72 blades hidden behind Dan Chen-Zi's. Looks like a pair of wings. Being part of 
person's body, movement of weapon is controlled by the mind of its owner.

Sky Reflector
A translucent piece of saucer-shaped glass which radiates rays of light that immobilise the opponent as long as its light is still shone on them. Owner: White Brows.

 Luminous Sword Beyond Inferno
A mass of sparkling crystals White Brows obtains from another dimension.  He later passes it down  to Xuan Tian-Zong. Floats in the air. Can be transformed into a sword. Is able to create the illusion of a person's image miles away and enable long distance communication. 


Light Dispersing Sword of Grandness
When wielded in the correct sequence, discharges of a spinning array of swords of light that flies 
towards multiple targets. Owner: Duan Lei. 


 Heaven Striking Sword
A guardian weapon of Er-Mei Sect. A mass of rainbow-coloured misty ribbon-like energy that flies freely at the command of its master, usually a lady. Travels at a very high speed. With highly destructive power that blows up anything in its way. Inherited by the Li Ying-Qi.

Flaming Sword of Thunder
The other guardian weapon of Er-Mei Sect. A sword that can extend to an incredible length of  hundreds of metres. Powerful enough to split up a mountain. When united with Heaven Striking Sword, becomes a force faster than the speed of light and their power is unstoppable. First Owner: Chang-Kong Wu-Ji. After the failed attempt by Li Ying-Qi and Chang-Kong Wu-Ji to combine the two swords, it turns into a rusty piece of scrap metal. The two swords have a soul of their own and decides on who should inherit them. For example, anyone else who tries to control the Flaming Sword of Thunder will be charred by its flaming thunder. Once it has determined its (second) master, Lian Xing (played Wu Jing), it sticks to him no matter where he goes and even in its rusty state. Will Lian Xing (the real star of the movie) eventually be able to enable the Flaming Sword of Thunder to regain its glorious state?

Will Wu Jing be able to unleash the powers of Flaming Sword of Thunder?
