The Dragon Pearl

When teenagers Josh (Louis Corbett) and Ling (Li Lin Jin) accompany their parents, Chris (Sam Neill) and Dr. Li (Wang Ji), on an archaeological expedition in China, they discover something unimaginable hidden beneath a temple—a living Chinese dragon. Two millennia ago, this dragon had lent its mighty pearl to an emperor to protect his realm. However, instead of being returned, the pearl was interred with the emperor under his palace. Deprived of its power source, the dragon has been trapped there ever since.
