The heavenly path splits, and Pan Shi, by a fortuitous coincidence, transforms into a demon. It becomes best friends with a canary, but their identity as demons causes them to face a lot of coldness and prejudice since their formation. With a dream of becoming a hero but no real skills, Pan Shi undergoes countless hardships before finally becoming a disciple of Master Jie Kong in the Yao Guang Dong sect. Luckily, the bright and innocent fellow disciple Feng Ling takes care of them. Pan Shi works hard day and night to train and becomes close friends with the aloof and proud Yang Lan, building up the Qi Lai Mountain together. The Celestial Army led by the Beichen Marshal in the heavens seeks to exterminate all demons, prompting the demon realm to rise up in rebellion. However, all of this is secretly manipulated by the Wuji Holy Emperor, who has been invaded by the Hongmeng Heart Devil. Pan Shi leads the demon realm in a bloody struggle against the heavenly army, becoming a hero who protects weak demons. At this point, the Wuji Holy Emperor's goal of causing chaos throughout the three realms is about to be achieved. In a moment of crisis, Pan Shi charges towards the Heavenly Path Stone without hesitation, attempting to shatter the Wuji Holy Emperor's conspiracy and restore order to the world.—CPOP HOME
