Summary:
According to the legend, Jigong’s magic power is boundless, and no monsters or ghosts dare to cause trouble. Only water monsters occasionally cause mischief in the Qianjiang River, injuring the people with floods. One day, the water monsters ganged up to cause mischief, turning up thousands of huge waves and crashing into people’s houses, destroying all lives. The water monsters gained power and turned into a huge waterspout, vowing to swallow up the whole world. At the moment of despair, the hero came, Jigong burst out of the air and beat the water demon to pieces with a thunderous force. Thinking that the world would be peaceful from now on, he discovered that Dapeng was planning a conspiracy to conquer the three realms of humans, gods, and demons. With the help of Fat Fairy Boy, Jigong found the Jade Emperor and ordered to summon Erlang Shen, Lei Zhenzi, Nezha, Jiutian Xuannv, and Fuhu. The Arhats go to the mortal world to conquer demons and monsters together, and engage in earth-shattering battles between immortals and demons. As disasters occur one after another, the human world is in danger of being outlawed by the demon world. Is it the Tao that is higher, or the Demon that is higher?
