After showing off his double sided, Sword of Light and sampling it's power against Gourry, their swords cancel each other out. Valgaav's major boss comes (named Alymace) tells him to retreat. Lina tries to attack him, but Xellos shows up, saying that Alymace cannot be hurt by magic of anykind.

Episode 6: Wandering Around? The Runaway Shrine Takes a Trip!
Lina and the gange reach an ancient temple which turns out to be an ancient train heading towards the temple of the Fire Dragon Temple. It is powered by magic, so Lina and the rest can't use anything. They are heading nearer and nearer, and they figure to get their magic back, they'd need to find the source that is collecting their magic. Lina decides to cast Dragon Slave against the train, but it didn't work, and they end up only breaking part of the temple.
