Ji Gong, the Living Buddha of the Mortal World

A black rat in Heaven stole and ate an immortal pill, becoming an immortal. After secretly cultivating in Heaven for a thousand years, the rat turned into an ambitious bat. It secretly recruited followers and raised tens of thousands of demons to attack Heaven. Dragon-Subduing led the Eighteen Arhats in capturing the black bat and ordered the Black and White Little Immortals to guard it. But the two Little Immortals drank too much wine, and the black bat escaped. While pursuing it, Dragon-Subduing was accidentally knocked down to the mortal realm by the bat and became Ji Gong. From then on, Ji Gong searched for the black bat while vanquishing demons, exorcising evil, helping good people, reforming villains, and rescuing the suffering. The Arhats Tiger-Subduing and Lotus also accidentally came to the mortal world and were reincarnated. Lotus, a grown man, became a woman. The two Little Immortals, cast down from Heaven by the celestial gods, lost their memories, and the Black Little Immortal even became intellectually disabled.
