Eight hundred years after the calamity at Shituo Ridge came to an end, Ye Kong completed his cultivation and returned to the mortal world. He uncovers the truth about the events of the past and demands justice from three powerful beings: the Azure Lion, the White Elephant, and Dapeng. He reveals scenes from the past, tears down temples dedicated to their worship, subdues the White Elephant, and confronts powerful figures of Buddhism, seeking only to comfort the souls of the dead and obtain justice. This matter shakes the Heavenly Court and various other factions. Several righteous warriors step forward to offer their help, and a conflict that will affect all three realms begins.
