Linghu Chong, seorang pendekar pedang yang merindukan kehidupan di luar dunia persilatan, kembali terseret ke dalam pertarungan antara kebaikan dan kejahatan. Dalam perjalanannya, ia secara tak terduga bertemu dengan Dongfang Bubai, pemimpin misterius dari Sekte Iblis, yang membawanya ke petualangan penuh gejolak dan tak terduga di dunia persilatan.
While it's of course impossible to top 1992's Swordsman II both in actions & ensemble as the best partly-adaptation of Jin Yong's The Smiling Proud Wanderer (Pendekar Hina Kelana), #InvincibleSwordsman fights its way with CGI-heavy presentation, Sammo Hung's brief appearance. and Tim Huang's proper lead, yet the most powerful aspect to brace it as still, a decent remake more than just a loose reimagining, is Kitty Zhang's Dong Fang Bubai - that's if never as strong, but at least come close to the persona of Brigitte Lin in her such legendary role.
By overall scale, being an iQIYI's premium product, co-produced by Wong Jing, too, #InvincibleSwordsman still looks very grand but also feel lesser than both #LegendsOfCondorHeroes and #CreationOfTheGods.
