During the prehistoric period of ancient times, the heaven and earth were first opened and chaos was not divided. After Pangu created the world, his essence and blood turned into the world, his bones turned into mountains, and his eyes turned into the sun and moon. In the middle of the Yuanjiang River in the upper reaches of Dongting Lake in Wuling County, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered into nine dragon beads, giving birth to nine dragons with different shapes: Zhulong (Red Flame), Yinglong (Cang Lei), Kuilong (Xuanfeng), Huanglong (Thick Earth), Qinglong (Green Wood), White Dragon (Frost and Snow), Black Dragon (Dark Water), Golden Dragon (Yaojin), and Silver Dragon (Liuxia). Following Pangu's orders, Jiulong guards the dragon veins of the Yuanjiang River and transforms nine streams with its own essence and blood to nourish all living things.
The ancient ferocious beast Taotie coveted the power of the Yuanjiang dragon vein, and joined forces with the sealed demon ancestor Luohu to secretly sow discord between Kowloon. Taotie transformed into a human, disguised as a dragon counselor, and instigated Zhulong to fight for the position of "Dragon Head", triggering a civil war in Kowloon. Luo Hu took advantage of the situation and tried to swallow the spiritual power of Jiuxi, breaking the seal and returning to the world.
