During the Southern Song Dynasty, Li Xiuyuan, the son of Li Maochun, the governor of Beijing Camp, was originally an Arhat descending from the Western Heaven. He became a monk at the age of eighteen and became a monk with the Buddhist name Daoji. Dong Shihong hanged himself in search of his daughter but was rescued by Jigong, who managed to reunite the father and daughter and cured the eye disease of Zhao Wenhui and Su Beishan's mother. Guang Liang, the supervisor of the temple, burned the stele tower in an attempt to harm Jigong, but was extinguished by Jigong's magic. The plan failed. Guang Liang asked Jigong to beg alms to rebuild the stele tower, and Jigong agreed. Jigong carried Wei Tuo's statue to Zhou's house to surrender the banshee, and Zhou Su agreed to donate money. The Great Stele Tower was rebuilt successfully, but the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion falsely conveyed that the Great Stele Tower was to be demolished. Jigong used magic to play tricks on Prime Minister Qin, and cured Prime Minister Qin's son Qin Huan from his strange illness, finally saving both father and son. Hua Yunlong, a lewd thief in Xichuan, raped and killed women and stole the prime minister's pearl crown. Jigong attacked Hua Yunlong three times, but the thief persisted in his obsession and could not escape the law in the end. The Eight Demons occupied Jinshan Temple and set up a magic fire and golden light array to refine Jidian. Elder Lingkong and Zixia Zhenren helped to subdue the Eight Demons.
