In ancient times, Duobao Daoist and his disciple, the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, secretly fell in love. Bound by human principles and moral conventions, their love violated the rules of propriety, so they kept their feelings buried in their hearts.
During the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit was killed by Guangchengzi. Seeking revenge for his disciple, Duobao Daoist led the elite members of the Jie Sect in killing the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, triggering the Immortal-Slaying Formation. After that, Duobao Daoist vanished without a trace. Through countless cycles of mortal life, Duobao Daoist became Xu Xian, while the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit became Bai Suzhen.
After the bodhisattvas and buddhas crossed north to the Tang Empire, Duobao Daoist took over the Netherworld from Ksitigarbha, merged the Dao with Buddhism, and ascended to become the Buddha of Treasure Victory. He led the buddhas, bodhisattvas, and the remaining disciples of the Jie Sect in confronting the demon Shankara, restoring Buddhism and welcoming Buddha Shakyamuni back to his rightful place.
In that life, I turned mountains, waters, and prayer wheels, not to earn a better next life, but only to meet you along the way.
