Before dying, the master wants this student to find and team up with the good venoms and kill the bad venoms before they get their hands on some loot that a former Poison Clan membertook with him when he left the clan.

Lo Lieh comes into the room and puts on a good show in front of everyone while Liu Chia-Liang is wrongfully acused of a crime he didn't commit. Since everyone believes that Liu Chia-Liang raped Lo Lieh's wife, he is supposed to be put to death.

Master Killer[AKA: 36th Chamber of Shaolin][Good Quality] [P&S, English dub][Dir: Liu Chia-Liang/1978][Stars: Gordon Liu, Lo Lieh, Wilson Tong, Liu Chia-Yung]• Liu Yu-Te (Gordon Liu) comes to Shaolin after his family is wiped out by some Manchu forces. While at Shaolin, he passes through 35 chambers with the motive of avenging the death of his family. These 35 chambers involve grueling and painful training modules. Each chamber helps Gordon Liu develop skills for kung fu and Shaolin life. Some of the training involved development of periphial vision, hardening of the body, and body control techniques. After completion of the 35 Chambers, Gordon Liu wants to go and get revenge, but if he does, he cannot come back to Shaolin. As he leaves and does his business, he establishes the 36th Chamber (something he couldn't do at Shaolin) on the outside for those who are non-monks to learn kung-fu.
