Five hundred years after completing the pilgrimage and attaining Buddhahood, Sun Wukong, now the Victorious Fighting Buddha, maintains order across the Three Realms. He is kept busy subduing all kinds of evil spirits and monsters, but they are all petty cases. One day, Taibai Jinxing tells Sun Wukong that the Six-Eared Macaque may have been resurrected and sends him to investigate. Just as Sun Wukong is about to destroy the Six-Eared Macaque, he becomes a wanted fugitive from Heaven... Sun Wukong realizes he has been caught up in a trap...
A prophecy declares, “If Sun Wukong is not captured, the Three Realms will be plunged into doomsday...”

Humans, demons, immortals, gods, and Buddhas are all swept up in this great battle.
What really happened five hundred years ago in the tale of the true and false Monkey King?
Who was the mastermind behind it all?
Let us uncover the truth together!
