After the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, Buddhism and Taoism coexisted, and demons were rampant in the world. The young Chen Xuanzang is not the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, but an ordinary but compassionate mortal monk. In order to obtain the true scriptures and alleviate the suffering of the people, the imperial court ordered the recruitment of people who traveled westward to obtain scriptures. Chen Xuanzang took over the mission as a mortal.
However, he is not alone. The White Dragon Prince who was imprisoned in sorrow, the arrogant monkey demon who was trapped under the Five Elements Mountain, the Tianpeng Marshal who was demoted to earth, and the Curtain General who accidentally broke the glass lamp, these "criminal prisoners" of the heaven were arranged by mysterious forces to become his protectors. But they all have their own thoughts. Some want to return to the immortal class, some are waiting for an opportunity to take revenge, and some are secretly coveting the secret hidden by Chen Xuanzang - the key to the ancient battle between Buddha and demon is sealed in his body.
The road to the west is full of murders at every step. The real enemy is not the monsters on the road, but the shocking conspiracy hidden between the heaven and the spiritual mountain. When the truth is revealed, what Chen Xuanzang has to face, should he choose to become a Buddha and save the common people, or fall into the devil's path and subvert the three realms?
