The details of the plot were devised by screenwriter John Fusco along with actor Jet Li. Jet Li explains,
“ The screenwriter is a good friend of mine and we have been sparring partners for the past three years.
I was among the first to get hold of the story and later we were joined by Jackie and others. The screenwriter and I discussed how to turn the story into a fantasy and dream-like film. He is a superb screenwriter and has been learning Chinese martial arts for more than 10 years. He has roughly put across in the film some of my basic understanding of martial arts and principles of Buddhism “
