''Blood of the Dragon'', also known as ''The Desperate Chase'', is a 1971 martial arts film starring Creator/JimmyWangYu.
White Dragon (Jimmy) is a courier with a mission to deliver a scroll containing an important message to the Imperial Court. But crossing the Chinese-Mongolian border in the middle of the war is dangerous, and a Mongolian Minister will stop at nothing to retrieve that scroll. After befriending a young boy pretending to be a beggar, White Dragon takes refuge in an inn belonging to the boy's sister Miss Lian while evading the Mongols.

!!Blood of the Tropers:
* ActionPrologue: The movie begins it's first ''second'' with White Dragon fighting General Tai, with the credits superimposed over their battle.
* BadassAndChildDuo: White Dragon and Ni-chiu, after the former asks the latter to be his guide.
* BehindAStick: While being pursued by Mongol soldiers, for some reason Ni-chiu tries hiding behind a tree thinner than him.
* BladeOnAStick: White Dragon's preferred weapon is his spear, whose silver-coated shaft is absolutely ''huge''. He's damn good at using this weapon to take names in the finale.
* BloodSplatteredWarrior: White Dragon at the end of his fight against General Tai and Minister Sing's soldiers, where his all-white clothing ends up covered in plenty of blood, both from his enemies and himself.
* ConArtist: Ni-chiu likes to pretend being a blind beggar to con for alms, shown in his early scenes.
* CoversAlwaysLie: Yes, movie, we know Jimmy Wang Yu have an impressive set of abs, but despite what the above poster implies, at '''NO''' point in the movie did Jimmy strip down to his undies.
* EpicFlail: The preferred weapon of Kang Fu, the MookLieutenant, is a spiked ball on a chain.
* HumanHammerThrow: [[spoiler: The ultimate fate of BigBad Minister Sing; after White Dragon shoves a spear through Sing's guts, he then twirls his opponent in circles in mid-air before flinging Sing to the corner of the body-strewen courtyard]].
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Since White Dragon's main weapon in the whole movie is a gigantic spear, expect this to happen constantly. [[spoiler: Including the BigBad Minister Sing]].
* OffhandBackhand: White Dragon, while sipping wine in Miss Yan's tavern, hears an assassin crawling on the rooftop above him. He chucks a knife vertically into the air where the sound is from, and seconds later a dead assassin rolls down the roof.
* OneHitPolykill: While facing off against three black-clad assassins, White Dragon managed to skewer all three of them with a single forward thrush.
* OneManArmy: It's a movie starring Jimmy Wang-yu. No surprises here. By the climax of the film he had claimed at least 60 lives with that spear of his.
* PursuedProtagonist: White Dragon spends most of the movie fleeing from the Mongols after his life because of the all-important scroll he is carrying for the imperial court.
* PreAsskickingOneLiner: A beautiful one delivered by White Dragon, before learning he's gonna have to fight Minister Sing and a whole platoon of at least 60 enemies:
--> "I don't have time to die right now!"
* ShoutOut: At one point, White Dragon reveals his true name to be... Creator/TiLung?
* TagalongKid: Ni-chiu, the little brother of Miss Yan, who follows White Dragon plenty of times throughout the film.
* WhipSword: Minister Sing's second-in-command, General Tai, uses a sword that can split into chained segments to fight White Dragon.
* WhiteShirtOfDeath: Played straight with the [[spoiler: white-clad protagonist, White Dragon]]. Take a wild guess if he outlives the credits or not.
* {{Wuxia}}: Yeah it's one of these.
