On the eve of the Investiture of the Gods war, the Celestial Court expands its power. The Jade Emperor demands that the Golden Immortals under Yuanshi Tianzun submit to him, sparking a conflict over power between immortals and mortals... After Shen Gongbao is released from the prison at Yuxu Palace, he takes his father, Shen Zhengdao, to Golden Turtle Island in the East Sea to join the Jie Sect and make his father one of its members.
Before long, the Celestial Court expands its power further. While Yuanshi Tianzun is in seclusion, the Jade Emperor orders the Golden Immortals under him to submit. When they refuse, Wuliang Xianweng and the other Golden Immortals fear the Celestial Court will retaliate. They send Jiang Ziya and Taiyi to Mount Shouyang and Golden Turtle Island to visit Taishang Laojun and Tongtian Jiaozhu, respectively, and seek their protection.
At the instigation of Wujitian Zun, Shen Gongbao incites some Jie Sect cultivators who resent the Chan Sect, sending an already tense situation spiraling further out of control.
Taiyi senses something is amiss and discusses countermeasures with Jiang Ziya. Together, they travel far and wide to rally support. During this time, Nezha falls out with Jinzha and Muzha, while Ao Bing is willing to give up his life to save Nezha. Yang Jian, a disciple of Yuding who has mastered the Eight-Nine Arcane Art, is sent down the mountain by his master to save Jiang Ziya. He later joins Nezha in helping Taiyi and the others travel around to seek support. Zhao Gongming, the Three Sky Maidens, Duobao Daoren, and other Jie Sect figures also make their appearances.
As Taiyi and the others investigate, they are shocked to discover Wujitian Zun's true identity. With the forces of the Jade Emperor massing at their borders and war about to break out, disciples of the Jie and Chan Sects join forces to repel the enemy.
The disciples are powerless against Wujitian Zun's attacks. At the most critical moment, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu appear together and resolve the Chan Sect's crisis. Since Taiyi made immense contributions during the crisis, he is officially named one of the Twelve Golden Immortals.
