Does any one know a good collection of Martial Art legends form China and Asia?

I want to write a book or screen play about a Kung-Fu warrior traveling ancient China and perfecting his martial arts ability to mastery. He challenges the monks of Shaolin , the Taoist monks in Wu Tan mountains and all over the country. I wnat him to use a staff and his fist and kicks. He will be bald and have fu manchu and wear a brown and white or faded balck and cream white winter robe. He will do iron stomach and breathing exerecises iunder icy water falls, climb cliff faces. Stare down a tiger. Run with wolves, break trees and rivere rocks with his iron fists. Train with the monks of differant temples and defeat their champions. Fight off asins from defeated fighters. Save a vilage and other things. I need mroe rral life stories form legendary warriors to comple his story.I kind of wnat to keep it in China with only Chinese people, but wnat to take aspects form american, Israeli, Japanese,Thai ancient greek and Indian (India) arts and culture.
