As soon as the crew's recruitment advertisement was released, numerous actors from the entertainment industry flocked to audition. The filming process was not long, taking only three months from start to finish, followed by post-production. Chen Mo handled the special effects and scene designs personally. When the final cut of the movie was completed, every member of the production team was astounded.
Combined with the theme song "Myth" composed by Chen Mo and performed as a duet by him and Gong Xue, the film instantly became a classic.
The movie passed censorship smoothly, made its way directly into major cinemas, and was even screened in Hong Kong. Upon release, the theaters were packed to capacity from day one. Anyone who watched the film was awestruck by its magnificent special effects and boundless imagination. Furthermore, the martial arts choreography designed by Chen Mo far surpassed the action sequences found in current Hong Kong kung fu films. Its box office earnings in Hong Kong shattered all previous historical records.
