The First Myth: The Clash of Gods (2021) Movie Script
We are a group of people,
banished by the Shang Dynasty.
We're determined to end
the tyranny of the current dynasty.
King Zhou
went back on his words
and had harmed his people.
He's asking for his death.
We plan to gather all the heroes
around the world,
and deliver heavenly punishment.
We plan to borrow the mighty power
of the Deity Coronation Scroll
to punish
the deities who are in cahoots
with King Zhou.
Assist the Chancellor!
We will inherit the progress
of our ancestors,
follow the order of the heaven
and assist the new king.
We will not be banished again.
We will banish King Zhou!
We will not be banished again.
We will banish King Zhou!
General Deng,
if we fail to seal the
power of the deities,
you must destroy the Altar of Deity.
Yes, King Wu.
Chancellor Jiang, everything is ready.
Can we...
Why is he here?
As Sui is at Chun Huo,
Yue is at Tian Si.
This is the hour of the heavens.
Success or failure
hinges on this one action.
When the primordial world
was first created,
the scroll contains
the names of all deities.
A disaster between human and deities,
foretold by the heavens.
The deities must be sealed,
in order to acquire peace!
Senior.
Long time no see.
Shen Gong Bao?
It's time for you to repay
your blood debts!
Destroy!
Puny humans.
Senior,
as the current chancellor
of Shang Dynasty,
I should be the one
keeping the scroll.
The Shang Dynasty is corrupted.
Master told me to bring the
Deity Coronation Scroll
in order to assist the new king.
As for me,
I do agree with breaking the seal
of the scroll.
But, you won't be the one
breaking the seal.
You won't break the seal here either.
Snatch the scroll!
Spin!
Senior.
Senior.
-My lord!
-Destroy the Altar of Deity!
Transform!
Protect the Deity Coronation Scroll!
Lei Zhen Zi!
Lei Zhen Zi!
Lei Zhen Zi!
Destroy the Altar of Deity!
Chancellor, be careful!
Chancellor, leave now!
Thank you, General Lei.
Get away!
Get out of the way!
The names of the deities,
are hidden under the seal.
It will be revealed after death.
Just like what Master had said.
My peers,
you guys should stop now.
Send the scouts.
Find out where our enemies had gone to.
and get back the Deity Coronation Scroll.
Yes, sir.
This is the start of our war.
Chancellor,
what should we do
in order to win this war?
[The First Myth Clash of Gods]
Chancellor Jiang wasn't lying indeed.
That deity, Yang Jian, is mighty indeed.
Where's Master Jiang Zi Ya?
Don't tell me you're here to lecture him?
How dare you guys treat
the heavens like a joke?
You should've come earlier.
We were taught a lesson
by your other master.
Shen Gong Bao killed all these men.
We couldn't recover the corpses
of the other victims.
Master shouldn't have activated
the Deity Coronation Scroll.
If something goes wrong,
countless deities will be implicated.
We won't be able to win without
activating the Deity Coronation Scroll.
Shen Gong Bao is trying to create a war
between humans and deities.
There are many other deities
just like him in the human realm.
That's impossible.
Besides Shen Gong Bao,
no other deities will interfere
with the human realm.
From now on, you guys aren't
allowed to worship him!
If you can help us eradicate King Zhou,
you will be the hero of the people.
I believe that they will build
another temple to honour you.
You want me to work with you guys?
Forget about it.
I'm a solo guy.
The incident at Chen Tang Pass
wasn't your fault.
The people worshipped you
because they believe that you'll
be able to save them from sufferings.
But, it's hard for you to do so
on your own.
I have an eccentric temper.
You better don't regret it.
Congratulations, my king.
Why are you congratulating me?
My king, you must be joking.
I'm congratulating you because
the deities are helping us.
My king, seems like
you will rule over Xiqi soon.
That's what I like to hear!
You're awake?
Chancellor said you'll recover soon.
I can't control myself.
It's in my body!
When the Six Souls Flag touched me,
I was thrown into confusion!
It filled up my brains with evil thoughts!
Do you know how it feels like
to be defeated?
Everyone experiences defeat in life.
What you need to do now
is to pull yourself together.
We're facing a tough battle.
No.
I have no way to control myself.
I have no way to control myself.
We will find a way eventually.
But the price is too heavy for us to pay!
I can't just let our soldiers
risk their lives for me!
Are you satisfied with this then?
You trained yourself to be a deity
because you wanted to do something
about this chaotic world, am I right?
If you still retain some
of your past dignity,
you should prove yourself to us.
Don't disgrace the people
who believed in you.
I've killed so many of them...
It wasn't your fault.
Shen Gong Bao was behind everything.
I've obtained the scroll.
But I don't understand.
Why must we stop Jiang Zi Ya
from activating the scroll?
The Primeval Lord of Heaven
let him build the Altar of Deity
not only because he wants
him to activate the scroll,
he wants to use the altar in order to seal
away the powers of the deities as well.
But the Altar of Deity was destroyed.
How do we break the seal now?
The Six Souls Flag will tell you
how to break its seal
and complete our mission.
After that,
it will be your turn to
complete your part of the deal.
I have to see if your disciples
are as great as you've boasted before.
I'll have to see if they're invincible
and if they can help me
to rule over the human realm.
You're just a lowly pawn disregarded
by the Primeval Lord of Heaven.
You have no right to give comments
about my disciples!
Don't forget.
You guys can't leave Bi You Palace
before I complete my mission.
But,
don't you worry.
Once the seal is broken,
your powers will be stripped away.
There's nothing to be afraid of.
Eradicate the Chan Sect
and bring glory to us!
-I need two men over here.
-Yes.
Take this away.
-Take him away.
-Check thoroughly.
These are still useable. Take them away.
-Take this away.
-Be careful, it's heavy.
What's wrong?
Up!
Hurry, check if anyone's still alive!
Don't touch him!
He was struck by the Plague Formation.
If you touch him,
the plague will infect you as well.
He came with me all the way from Xiqi.
I must at least bury his body!
We must at least bury his body!
He's doing this for our sake.
He's looking at the bigger picture.
-Tian Hua.
-I know.
If it weren't for Deity Yang Jian,
more of us would've been dead.
My lord,
I still can't place my trust in him.
Don't tell me that
-we must...
-General Deng,
you may stop there.
My lord, do you still remember
what happened?
When your father was trapped
in Qinglong Pass by the army of Shang,
he always hoped that
the deities could save him.
But, no one gave him any assistance
until the very end.
I had no choice.
Shen Gong Bao is the chancellor
of Shang Dynasty.
He will surely recruit deities
to help the Shang Dynasty.
That means the celestial realm
only have two sides to choose from.
It's either us,
or our enemies.
But Shen Gong Bao is pillaging the cities
using our name!
To the people,
it might seem like we're the ones
committing all the evil deeds.
We just need to have a clear conscience.
For every city we conquer,
we need to be responsible for
the people inside of it.
That is our mission.
Ask our supply army to send
some food to the citizens here.
Order our army
not to disrupt the citizens.
Yes, sir.
General Deng,
keep an eye on his every move.
Hurry! I need two men over here.
General Huang, please.
I heard that you've trained yourself
for 60 years.
The Nine Rotation Art will render one
immune to the passing of time.
Maybe I look quite different
from my actual age.
That means you were practising
the Art of Eternal Youth, am I right?
That's not it.
It's more than that.
Listen up.
You shouldn't have done that
to the corpses of our brothers.
Those who died on the battlefield
deserved to be respected.
Tian Hua, let's go!
-Are you okay?
-I'm sorry.
Aren't you
the disciple of Deity Yun Zhong Zi?
-I am.
-You don't need to be courteous.
Is that
the only thing you heard about?
Is there anything else?
That's great to hear.
I have something to ask you.
It seems like she dislikes me.
You mean her?
You're not the only one she dislikes.
Who else is there?
Chancellor, our war information
is confidential.
How could we let the deities interfere?
Our scouts
have been tracking Shen Gong Bao.
They should be here.
Zhenxun City.
What place is this?
It's the capital of Xia Dynasty.
Now, it's a ruin.
500 years ago, the founding father
of Shang Dynasty defeated
King Xia, who was under the protection
of 100 deities, in that place.
-With a bunch of humans?
-Yes.
With just a bunch of humans.
That is the truth.
Back then, his chancellor, Yi Yin,
received an order from the heavens.
Thus, he brought the Deity Coronation
Scroll to the human realm with him.
And after that battle,
Yi Yin sealed the Deity Coronation Scroll
at the same spot, until now.
I suppose Shen Gong Bao has found
a way to break the seal.
Now,
it's time for everyone
to show us their true ability.
As fate guides the dark bird,
the Shang Dynasty was born.
Fate? My foot.
They can only conquer the world
by massacring the deities.
Jiang Zi Ya and his lord
are trying to do the same as well.
I don't care about the human realm.
I just want to return the Deity Coronation
Scroll to the heavenly realm.
Appear!
Seems like
there's more than meets the eye.
Useless beast.
Scram!
Shen Gong Bao,
you despicable crook!
Don't you guys understand?
By activating the scroll, they'll
sacrifice us deities
in exchange for their peace.
Put down the scroll and surrender.
Surrender?
You guys should surrender instead.
Take a close look.
The seal of the Deity Coronation Scroll
has been broken.
If I open it,
countless deities
will be sacrificed.
Do you guys want to see
if your names are on it?
No!
What a joke.
You must be Ne Zha.
Don't try to act close with me.
I won't be friends with a weirdo
and mere humans.
I'm used to going solo.
Who are you? Tell us your name.
I'm Tu Xing Sun.
Farewell!
He's a deity as well.
So what? He's just here to create trouble.
Shouldn't we...
Shouldn't we try to pursue him?
I need some time to recharge my energy.
-Who sent you here?
-The Deity Coronation Scroll.
I've been eyeing it for a long time.
If you don't hand it over,
I will stay here forever.
How dare you kick me?
Mister, I have no time
for your silly tricks.
I hate it when people call me a dwarf!
When did I call you a dwarf?
Right now!
I!
What a joke.
-Who exactly are you?
-I heard Xiqi was in danger.
I'm here to get rid of evil.
Can't we just talk over this?
I want the Deity Coronation Scroll
because it fetches a high price.
So, it's for money? Alright.
Let's talk over this.
I'm on a different level from you.
I would never call someone a dwarf
because of money.
He said you were a dwarf.
Can you stand that?
Wait, you two are doing this on purpose!
You guys are finished already?
I'm sure you admire them.
Senior.
You guys shouldn't keep me in here.
This is a type of humiliation!
I'm reminded of my younger self
when I see them.
Don't try to boast.
When you were young,
you were nothing compared with them.
This old guy is frank. I like it.
Why aren't we turning into gods
even after the seal was broken?
You have great powers,
but you don't have the ability
to see through fate.
Stop mystifying things.
I know this better than you.
The Deity Coronation Scroll
can't help deities at all.
It only allows the humans
to trample on our heads!
Just ignore that lunatic.
Isn't it time for dinner?
What else do you know about Shen Gong Bao?
I heard that the Jie Sect is supporting
him behind his back
in exchange for
the Deity Coronation Scroll.
We need reliable information
if we want to survive in this field.
Excuse me, which field do you mean?
I'm a treasure collector.
You're just a filthy thief.
If you don't like it,
I can
quit.
It's time for you to wash your hands.
Fine then.
If he wants the Jie Sect
to descend into the human realm,
he still needs to open a path
between the two realms.
Maybe that's the reason why he's working
together with the empress, Da Ji.
Don't tell me Shen Gong Bao
has put Da Ji under his spell?
It's hard to say.
Maybe she's the one
who had bewitched Shen Gong Bao.
Heroes always fall to beauties.
It's useless to break
the seal by itself.
It may work if they have
the Six Souls Flag.
That's the magic treasure
of the Primeval Lord of Heaven.
If they build a new altar,
and use it as a catalyst,
and if they borrow the power
of the Deity Coronation Scroll,
they'll be able to open
the Gate of Heaven.
By then, there will be no distinction
between the two realms.
Is that the reason they snatched
away the scroll?
That may not be their goal.
The Jie Sect has never rejected
anyone who wants to enter their sect.
If they're eyeing the human realm,
a calamity will happen.
Let's just destroy the scroll then.
Wait.
I'll join you guys as well.
If you want to join us,
I'm afraid you need to change
some of your old habits.
Why is this thing in my arms?
Isn't this treasure magical?
This thing is so tough.
I heard that you can transform.
I heard that you can
undergo a complete transformation.
Why don't you transform for us?
Maybe you can destroy it then.
I don't think so.
No.
If I don't destroy it,
it'll destroy me!
How do you transform usually?
Do you transform after a fight?
Or after you sustain an injury?
Don't worry.
I promise I won't hurt you.
You...
What are you trying to do?
Are you crazy?
Can you only transform after
you sustain an injury?
Don't toy with other people's lives!
I didn't mean to offend you.
Three Eye, you're too petty.
We should be frank with each other.
-Aren't you supposed to act seriously?
-Am I not serious right now?
Have you ever thought of why Jiang Zi Ya
summoned us at this timing?
I came here of my own accord.
Look at him, he thinks
he's a righteous man.
Do you think humans will worship you
after you do this?
It's better than someone
who has no worshippers.
You never try to understand why
the humans are worshipping you.
Why don't we see who's better?
Such foolhardiness.
Let the humans
trample on our heads?
I'm sure Shen Gong Bao's words
aren't just empty talks.
So, is there anything else we should know?
I'm sure he went crazy
from all his training.
Let's just ignore this stupid thing.
Let's go to Zhaoge City
and defeat King Zhou.
That'll end everything, am I right?
I'm different from you guys.
I can only acquire strength
by hurting myself.
I don't even know what I am.
Ne Zha,
I need to tell you something.
Move these supplies over there.
These are your rewards
for capturing Shen Gong Bao.
Why are you being so courteous to me?
If so...
I'm not giving them to you for free.
You need to help us out
after you take them.
Give it to me!
You still owe me three bags of rewards.
What a miser.
I wonder if a sly deity like you
can survive long enough for you
to spend the money?
You misunderstood me.
I know what you guys plan to do.
You guys just want to seal away
the powers of the deities, right?
But, if I tell them this secret,
none of them will help you anymore.
Deities like you are the reason why
deities have a bad reputation.
Our reputation is just like you.
Worthless.
But for your sake,
I guess two bags are enough for me.
Did you destroy the Six Souls Flag?
You should explain the Altar of Deity
to us first.
Yeah, Master.
Shouldn't we be honest
to each other right now?
You'll know the power of the Deity
Coronation Scroll when you activate it.
That's only the first step.
The scroll can be manipulated if
they're at the Altar of Deity.
By then, all deities will have
their powers taken away.
The deities are wreaking havoc
in the human realm.
This is the price you guys should pay.
One year ago,
Shen Gong Pao infringed
the pact between deities and humans.
He assisted the wicked King Zhou
with the other deities.
They suppressed the people
and the resistance army.
If we don't activate the scroll,
we have no way to suppress the
deities under Shen Gong Bao's command.
If we don't do so,
we won't be able to win.
You want to sacrifice us
in order to oust King Zhou?
How could you believe in his words?
Yeah.
You can ask the dead soldiers then.
Without their powers, even their
magic treasures will turn into junks.
Why don't you guys come with me?
Let's find some magic treasures
and earn a fortune.
It's no wonder you're so passionate
about the Deity Coronation Scroll.
It seems like you two
have the same interest!
A bunch of fools!
Chancellor!
Ne Zha!
You were fooling us all the time.
Your temper is eccentric indeed.
On the count of three,
put down your weapons.
-Three...
-One!
Wait, even though the deal is off,
we're still friends, am I right?
This is a matter of principles!
Humans and deities will never be the same!
Outside.
I sense movements outside.
The enemy is attacking!
Prepare for battle!
General Deng, don't kill me!
I'm your comrade!
Ne Zha!
Protect the people!
Okay!
Destroy!
The Zhou army is attacking!
The Zhou army is attacking!
You guys want to assassinate our king?
I suppose this is the first time
someone is looking at you
from a lower perspective.
Go to hell!
With your intellect,
you'll be a thief at most.
Don't touch him!
You're assisting the evil King Zhou!
You don't deserve to be a deity!
Huang Tian Hua!
Right now,
you guys are the ones
who are assisting the evil King Zhou.
King Wu was once
revered by all of his people.
But now,
he commands the deities
in order to hurt innocent civilians.
He's going against fate.
Even if Shang Dynasty were to fall,
the people will never bow to him.
No matter what type of despicable trick
you're using,
us humans will never submit to you!
Huang Tian Hua!
You won't submit to me?
The entire human realm
needs to submit to me!
It's a pity you won't
survive long enough to see it.
Hand over the scroll
and we won't kill him.
Here you go!
Huang Tian Hua!
Huang Tian Hua!
You're seriously wounded!
We need to treat you immediately!
This time,
I suppose...
I suppose this is as good as
a bag of reward, am I right?
Huang Tian Hua!
Huang Tian Hua!
Huang Tian Hua!
Tian Hua always believed that
the deities our chancellor had gathered
will help us end this chaotic era.
But,
he couldn't survive long enough
to see it for himself.
My lord,
do you believe in them then?
As the south wind blows,
pikes and lances fall to the ground
Saluting our comrades
as they ascend to heaven
Welling with grief
as they strike the war drum
Sacrificing oneself for their king
Remembering our comrades
as we travel through the mountains
Travelling to the promised land
in tattered clothes
Taking pity on the dead
as they're buried
Returning to the kingdom
under the azure heaven
Is that all of them?
Yeah.
I heard that his father was
a general within the Zhou Army.
He died
on the battlefield in the past as well.
Why are they sacrificing themselves?
They're sacrificing
themselves for their belief.
They longed for
a peaceful era.
But is it worth it for so many of them
to die in order to kill one person?
It's worth it for
the sake of their belief.
But,
maybe we can't win this war.
Not necessarily.
Have you ever thought of why
Shen Gong Bao let us capture him
in Zhenxun City?
He's doing that in order to defeat us
and make everyone hate us.
In the end,
he succeeded.
No, he hasn't succeeded yet.
He still has one step to go.
The Gate of Heaven?
Reporting in!
Chancellor, the deities
have left our camp.
They must've found Shen Gong Bao.
It's in the direction of Tongguan City.
My lord,
I suggest you order our army
to move and attack Zhaoge immediately!
You're smarter than
what people think of you.
You guys are just plain dumb!
The army of Jie Sect will arrive soon.
The human realm will belong to me soon.
Do you really think a lotus root
like me has a soul?
You want me to hand
the human realm to you?
In your dreams!
From now on,
humans will know the meaning of fear!
Chancellor, what happened
in Tongguan City?
It's the Deity Massacre Formation.
Deity Massacre Formation?
The fated calamity will descend
the human realm.
Master, welcome to the human realm.
It is time to create a new world!
Master, welcome to the human realm.
It is time to create a new world!
Seems like this is a big deal.
You guys can come later, you know?
Help!
Don't touch it!
It's useless! No one can save us now!
This is hard to deal with!
They're connected to the formation.
They'll live as long as it is intact.
They'll fall once
the formation falls apart!
We're done for. This formation
has a limitless amount of energy.
The human realm
will be devoured eventually!
Let's deal with the guardians one by one.
We mustn't let them
enlarge the formation any longer.
They won't give us time
to destroy the formation.
Have you seen this thing before?
Ne Zha, be careful!
Be careful!
Let me summon my army.
Yang Jian, how do we fight them?
We'll work as a team.
Before the Gate of Heaven closes,
Ne Zha, you'll deal with the
southeastern point.
Lei Zhen Zi, you'll deal with the
northwestern point.
Tu Xing Sun, you'll maneuver the field.
You must defeat the beasts
if he summons them again.
General Deng and I will
deal with the rest.
We will protect the people as well.
Wait a minute!
Why must I be the one
who deals with the beasts?
I guess fortune favours the bold, huh?
Everyone, take your positions.
Destroy the Gate of Heaven
when you find a chance!
How do we fight against all of them?
In the past, deities were summoned
in order to deal with calamities
and disasters.
Even though we gave in to them,
humans never appreciated our efforts.
It's time for me to purge
this unfaithful world.
How can I be king
if you destroy everything?
Didn't you promise that
you'll hand the human realm to me?
I'll hand it to you once I purged it.
Well said!
You should just hand the human realm
to me!
Let me end everything!
You two don't want to
King Zhou's lackeys anymore?
How could you deities
just hide within the human realm?
This isn't the human realm!
This is our home!
No one will destroy it!
Yes! It's our home!
The deity is right!
This is our home!
We won't be their lackeys anymore!
Yeah! We quit!
Yeah! We quit!
We quit!
-Cover me!
-Alright!
Dumb woman.
-Wretched civilian!
-Beat him up!
-Beat him up!
-Wretched civilians!
Wretched civilians!
What are you guys trying to do?
What are you guys trying to do?
Burn him alive!
With this flame,
I'll avenge our fallen warriors
and General Huang Tian Hua!
Wait!
General Deng, I know
how to drive away the Jie Sect.
Tell me.
Give it to me.
General Deng, I wish you success.
It's pretty easy to be a deity.
I wish you success.
Arrogant humans,
I'll accomplish this glorious
mission instead of you...
He's so talkative.
Inferior humans,
all of you will burn under my wrath.
The entire realm will cower in fear
because of my will!
Everything will turn into ashes!
I think it's time for me
to deal with the ringleader.
Wait!
-Nobody shall hurt my woman!
-Who's your woman?
-We're in this situation already...
-Stop talking! Just do it already!
Alright!
Humans and deities nowadays
are crazier than what I've expected.
We need to buy time!
Hang in there!
Let's finish him off!
Ne Zha!
Ne Zha!
Ne Zha!
Ne Zha!
Puny ants.
No one will be able to stop me!
General Deng!
You're a deity yourself.
Why are you helping the humans?
Because this is our home.
He's right! This is our home!
You won't be able to destroy our hope!
You will never succeed!
We'll return all the pain and
suffering to you!
Master, I don't want to die!
Master!
Look at me!
Save me!
Master, I don't want to die!
Master, I don't want to die!
Master, we're here!
Look at us!
Master, save me!
Save me!
Save me!
Master, I don't want to die!
Master, save me!
Master, I don't want to die!
Master, save us!
Thank you,
our hero.
You're welcome.
Just ask the others
to repeat what you've said just now.
-And them!
-It's Yang Jian and the rest.
They're our heroes!
Our heroes!
Our heroes!
Our heroes!
Your father will be proud of you.
There's nothing to be proud of.
It was my duty.
Deities,
we would've lost the war
without you guys.
Thank you.
What a terrible end to my majestic era!
Yang Jian,
I suggest you look at the bigger picture.
If you lock me outside the Ninth Heaven,
the Deity Coronation Scroll
will disappear as well.
By then,
how will you explain yourself
to King Wu and Jiang Zi Ya?
We've accomplished the mission
listed by the Deity Coronation Scroll.
No, there's one more thing.
Look at this!
Since the Shang Dynasty has fallen,
the Deity Coronation Scroll
has returned to heaven as well.
Seems like everyone
has achieved what they wanted.
My lord, I suppose
your wish hasn't been achieved yet.
This is only the beginning of
a peaceful era.
General Deng, why don't you
follow me on my adventures?
I guess my wish has been achieved as well.
But, the deities had left the human realm.
And the Deity Coronation Scroll
isn't around anymore.
If, we face the same situation again,
what should we do?
By then, they'll descend upon
the human realm once again.
Is that a new pact?
That's
a promise between friends.
banished by the Shang Dynasty.
We're determined to end
the tyranny of the current dynasty.
King Zhou
went back on his words
and had harmed his people.
He's asking for his death.
We plan to gather all the heroes
around the world,
and deliver heavenly punishment.
We plan to borrow the mighty power
of the Deity Coronation Scroll
to punish
the deities who are in cahoots
with King Zhou.
Assist the Chancellor!
We will inherit the progress
of our ancestors,
follow the order of the heaven
and assist the new king.
We will not be banished again.
We will banish King Zhou!
We will not be banished again.
We will banish King Zhou!
General Deng,
if we fail to seal the
power of the deities,
you must destroy the Altar of Deity.
Yes, King Wu.
Chancellor Jiang, everything is ready.
Can we...
Why is he here?
As Sui is at Chun Huo,
Yue is at Tian Si.
This is the hour of the heavens.
Success or failure
hinges on this one action.
When the primordial world
was first created,
the scroll contains
the names of all deities.
A disaster between human and deities,
foretold by the heavens.
The deities must be sealed,
in order to acquire peace!
Senior.
Long time no see.
Shen Gong Bao?
It's time for you to repay
your blood debts!
Destroy!
Puny humans.
Senior,
as the current chancellor
of Shang Dynasty,
I should be the one
keeping the scroll.
The Shang Dynasty is corrupted.
Master told me to bring the
Deity Coronation Scroll
in order to assist the new king.
As for me,
I do agree with breaking the seal
of the scroll.
But, you won't be the one
breaking the seal.
You won't break the seal here either.
Snatch the scroll!
Spin!
Senior.
Senior.
-My lord!
-Destroy the Altar of Deity!
Transform!
Protect the Deity Coronation Scroll!
Lei Zhen Zi!
Lei Zhen Zi!
Lei Zhen Zi!
Destroy the Altar of Deity!
Chancellor, be careful!
Chancellor, leave now!
Thank you, General Lei.
Get away!
Get out of the way!
The names of the deities,
are hidden under the seal.
It will be revealed after death.
Just like what Master had said.
My peers,
you guys should stop now.
Send the scouts.
Find out where our enemies had gone to.
and get back the Deity Coronation Scroll.
Yes, sir.
This is the start of our war.
Chancellor,
what should we do
in order to win this war?
[The First Myth Clash of Gods]
Chancellor Jiang wasn't lying indeed.
That deity, Yang Jian, is mighty indeed.
Where's Master Jiang Zi Ya?
Don't tell me you're here to lecture him?
How dare you guys treat
the heavens like a joke?
You should've come earlier.
We were taught a lesson
by your other master.
Shen Gong Bao killed all these men.
We couldn't recover the corpses
of the other victims.
Master shouldn't have activated
the Deity Coronation Scroll.
If something goes wrong,
countless deities will be implicated.
We won't be able to win without
activating the Deity Coronation Scroll.
Shen Gong Bao is trying to create a war
between humans and deities.
There are many other deities
just like him in the human realm.
That's impossible.
Besides Shen Gong Bao,
no other deities will interfere
with the human realm.
From now on, you guys aren't
allowed to worship him!
If you can help us eradicate King Zhou,
you will be the hero of the people.
I believe that they will build
another temple to honour you.
You want me to work with you guys?
Forget about it.
I'm a solo guy.
The incident at Chen Tang Pass
wasn't your fault.
The people worshipped you
because they believe that you'll
be able to save them from sufferings.
But, it's hard for you to do so
on your own.
I have an eccentric temper.
You better don't regret it.
Congratulations, my king.
Why are you congratulating me?
My king, you must be joking.
I'm congratulating you because
the deities are helping us.
My king, seems like
you will rule over Xiqi soon.
That's what I like to hear!
You're awake?
Chancellor said you'll recover soon.
I can't control myself.
It's in my body!
When the Six Souls Flag touched me,
I was thrown into confusion!
It filled up my brains with evil thoughts!
Do you know how it feels like
to be defeated?
Everyone experiences defeat in life.
What you need to do now
is to pull yourself together.
We're facing a tough battle.
No.
I have no way to control myself.
I have no way to control myself.
We will find a way eventually.
But the price is too heavy for us to pay!
I can't just let our soldiers
risk their lives for me!
Are you satisfied with this then?
You trained yourself to be a deity
because you wanted to do something
about this chaotic world, am I right?
If you still retain some
of your past dignity,
you should prove yourself to us.
Don't disgrace the people
who believed in you.
I've killed so many of them...
It wasn't your fault.
Shen Gong Bao was behind everything.
I've obtained the scroll.
But I don't understand.
Why must we stop Jiang Zi Ya
from activating the scroll?
The Primeval Lord of Heaven
let him build the Altar of Deity
not only because he wants
him to activate the scroll,
he wants to use the altar in order to seal
away the powers of the deities as well.
But the Altar of Deity was destroyed.
How do we break the seal now?
The Six Souls Flag will tell you
how to break its seal
and complete our mission.
After that,
it will be your turn to
complete your part of the deal.
I have to see if your disciples
are as great as you've boasted before.
I'll have to see if they're invincible
and if they can help me
to rule over the human realm.
You're just a lowly pawn disregarded
by the Primeval Lord of Heaven.
You have no right to give comments
about my disciples!
Don't forget.
You guys can't leave Bi You Palace
before I complete my mission.
But,
don't you worry.
Once the seal is broken,
your powers will be stripped away.
There's nothing to be afraid of.
Eradicate the Chan Sect
and bring glory to us!
-I need two men over here.
-Yes.
Take this away.
-Take him away.
-Check thoroughly.
These are still useable. Take them away.
-Take this away.
-Be careful, it's heavy.
What's wrong?
Up!
Hurry, check if anyone's still alive!
Don't touch him!
He was struck by the Plague Formation.
If you touch him,
the plague will infect you as well.
He came with me all the way from Xiqi.
I must at least bury his body!
We must at least bury his body!
He's doing this for our sake.
He's looking at the bigger picture.
-Tian Hua.
-I know.
If it weren't for Deity Yang Jian,
more of us would've been dead.
My lord,
I still can't place my trust in him.
Don't tell me that
-we must...
-General Deng,
you may stop there.
My lord, do you still remember
what happened?
When your father was trapped
in Qinglong Pass by the army of Shang,
he always hoped that
the deities could save him.
But, no one gave him any assistance
until the very end.
I had no choice.
Shen Gong Bao is the chancellor
of Shang Dynasty.
He will surely recruit deities
to help the Shang Dynasty.
That means the celestial realm
only have two sides to choose from.
It's either us,
or our enemies.
But Shen Gong Bao is pillaging the cities
using our name!
To the people,
it might seem like we're the ones
committing all the evil deeds.
We just need to have a clear conscience.
For every city we conquer,
we need to be responsible for
the people inside of it.
That is our mission.
Ask our supply army to send
some food to the citizens here.
Order our army
not to disrupt the citizens.
Yes, sir.
General Deng,
keep an eye on his every move.
Hurry! I need two men over here.
General Huang, please.
I heard that you've trained yourself
for 60 years.
The Nine Rotation Art will render one
immune to the passing of time.
Maybe I look quite different
from my actual age.
That means you were practising
the Art of Eternal Youth, am I right?
That's not it.
It's more than that.
Listen up.
You shouldn't have done that
to the corpses of our brothers.
Those who died on the battlefield
deserved to be respected.
Tian Hua, let's go!
-Are you okay?
-I'm sorry.
Aren't you
the disciple of Deity Yun Zhong Zi?
-I am.
-You don't need to be courteous.
Is that
the only thing you heard about?
Is there anything else?
That's great to hear.
I have something to ask you.
It seems like she dislikes me.
You mean her?
You're not the only one she dislikes.
Who else is there?
Chancellor, our war information
is confidential.
How could we let the deities interfere?
Our scouts
have been tracking Shen Gong Bao.
They should be here.
Zhenxun City.
What place is this?
It's the capital of Xia Dynasty.
Now, it's a ruin.
500 years ago, the founding father
of Shang Dynasty defeated
King Xia, who was under the protection
of 100 deities, in that place.
-With a bunch of humans?
-Yes.
With just a bunch of humans.
That is the truth.
Back then, his chancellor, Yi Yin,
received an order from the heavens.
Thus, he brought the Deity Coronation
Scroll to the human realm with him.
And after that battle,
Yi Yin sealed the Deity Coronation Scroll
at the same spot, until now.
I suppose Shen Gong Bao has found
a way to break the seal.
Now,
it's time for everyone
to show us their true ability.
As fate guides the dark bird,
the Shang Dynasty was born.
Fate? My foot.
They can only conquer the world
by massacring the deities.
Jiang Zi Ya and his lord
are trying to do the same as well.
I don't care about the human realm.
I just want to return the Deity Coronation
Scroll to the heavenly realm.
Appear!
Seems like
there's more than meets the eye.
Useless beast.
Scram!
Shen Gong Bao,
you despicable crook!
Don't you guys understand?
By activating the scroll, they'll
sacrifice us deities
in exchange for their peace.
Put down the scroll and surrender.
Surrender?
You guys should surrender instead.
Take a close look.
The seal of the Deity Coronation Scroll
has been broken.
If I open it,
countless deities
will be sacrificed.
Do you guys want to see
if your names are on it?
No!
What a joke.
You must be Ne Zha.
Don't try to act close with me.
I won't be friends with a weirdo
and mere humans.
I'm used to going solo.
Who are you? Tell us your name.
I'm Tu Xing Sun.
Farewell!
He's a deity as well.
So what? He's just here to create trouble.
Shouldn't we...
Shouldn't we try to pursue him?
I need some time to recharge my energy.
-Who sent you here?
-The Deity Coronation Scroll.
I've been eyeing it for a long time.
If you don't hand it over,
I will stay here forever.
How dare you kick me?
Mister, I have no time
for your silly tricks.
I hate it when people call me a dwarf!
When did I call you a dwarf?
Right now!
I!
What a joke.
-Who exactly are you?
-I heard Xiqi was in danger.
I'm here to get rid of evil.
Can't we just talk over this?
I want the Deity Coronation Scroll
because it fetches a high price.
So, it's for money? Alright.
Let's talk over this.
I'm on a different level from you.
I would never call someone a dwarf
because of money.
He said you were a dwarf.
Can you stand that?
Wait, you two are doing this on purpose!
You guys are finished already?
I'm sure you admire them.
Senior.
You guys shouldn't keep me in here.
This is a type of humiliation!
I'm reminded of my younger self
when I see them.
Don't try to boast.
When you were young,
you were nothing compared with them.
This old guy is frank. I like it.
Why aren't we turning into gods
even after the seal was broken?
You have great powers,
but you don't have the ability
to see through fate.
Stop mystifying things.
I know this better than you.
The Deity Coronation Scroll
can't help deities at all.
It only allows the humans
to trample on our heads!
Just ignore that lunatic.
Isn't it time for dinner?
What else do you know about Shen Gong Bao?
I heard that the Jie Sect is supporting
him behind his back
in exchange for
the Deity Coronation Scroll.
We need reliable information
if we want to survive in this field.
Excuse me, which field do you mean?
I'm a treasure collector.
You're just a filthy thief.
If you don't like it,
I can
quit.
It's time for you to wash your hands.
Fine then.
If he wants the Jie Sect
to descend into the human realm,
he still needs to open a path
between the two realms.
Maybe that's the reason why he's working
together with the empress, Da Ji.
Don't tell me Shen Gong Bao
has put Da Ji under his spell?
It's hard to say.
Maybe she's the one
who had bewitched Shen Gong Bao.
Heroes always fall to beauties.
It's useless to break
the seal by itself.
It may work if they have
the Six Souls Flag.
That's the magic treasure
of the Primeval Lord of Heaven.
If they build a new altar,
and use it as a catalyst,
and if they borrow the power
of the Deity Coronation Scroll,
they'll be able to open
the Gate of Heaven.
By then, there will be no distinction
between the two realms.
Is that the reason they snatched
away the scroll?
That may not be their goal.
The Jie Sect has never rejected
anyone who wants to enter their sect.
If they're eyeing the human realm,
a calamity will happen.
Let's just destroy the scroll then.
Wait.
I'll join you guys as well.
If you want to join us,
I'm afraid you need to change
some of your old habits.
Why is this thing in my arms?
Isn't this treasure magical?
This thing is so tough.
I heard that you can transform.
I heard that you can
undergo a complete transformation.
Why don't you transform for us?
Maybe you can destroy it then.
I don't think so.
No.
If I don't destroy it,
it'll destroy me!
How do you transform usually?
Do you transform after a fight?
Or after you sustain an injury?
Don't worry.
I promise I won't hurt you.
You...
What are you trying to do?
Are you crazy?
Can you only transform after
you sustain an injury?
Don't toy with other people's lives!
I didn't mean to offend you.
Three Eye, you're too petty.
We should be frank with each other.
-Aren't you supposed to act seriously?
-Am I not serious right now?
Have you ever thought of why Jiang Zi Ya
summoned us at this timing?
I came here of my own accord.
Look at him, he thinks
he's a righteous man.
Do you think humans will worship you
after you do this?
It's better than someone
who has no worshippers.
You never try to understand why
the humans are worshipping you.
Why don't we see who's better?
Such foolhardiness.
Let the humans
trample on our heads?
I'm sure Shen Gong Bao's words
aren't just empty talks.
So, is there anything else we should know?
I'm sure he went crazy
from all his training.
Let's just ignore this stupid thing.
Let's go to Zhaoge City
and defeat King Zhou.
That'll end everything, am I right?
I'm different from you guys.
I can only acquire strength
by hurting myself.
I don't even know what I am.
Ne Zha,
I need to tell you something.
Move these supplies over there.
These are your rewards
for capturing Shen Gong Bao.
Why are you being so courteous to me?
If so...
I'm not giving them to you for free.
You need to help us out
after you take them.
Give it to me!
You still owe me three bags of rewards.
What a miser.
I wonder if a sly deity like you
can survive long enough for you
to spend the money?
You misunderstood me.
I know what you guys plan to do.
You guys just want to seal away
the powers of the deities, right?
But, if I tell them this secret,
none of them will help you anymore.
Deities like you are the reason why
deities have a bad reputation.
Our reputation is just like you.
Worthless.
But for your sake,
I guess two bags are enough for me.
Did you destroy the Six Souls Flag?
You should explain the Altar of Deity
to us first.
Yeah, Master.
Shouldn't we be honest
to each other right now?
You'll know the power of the Deity
Coronation Scroll when you activate it.
That's only the first step.
The scroll can be manipulated if
they're at the Altar of Deity.
By then, all deities will have
their powers taken away.
The deities are wreaking havoc
in the human realm.
This is the price you guys should pay.
One year ago,
Shen Gong Pao infringed
the pact between deities and humans.
He assisted the wicked King Zhou
with the other deities.
They suppressed the people
and the resistance army.
If we don't activate the scroll,
we have no way to suppress the
deities under Shen Gong Bao's command.
If we don't do so,
we won't be able to win.
You want to sacrifice us
in order to oust King Zhou?
How could you believe in his words?
Yeah.
You can ask the dead soldiers then.
Without their powers, even their
magic treasures will turn into junks.
Why don't you guys come with me?
Let's find some magic treasures
and earn a fortune.
It's no wonder you're so passionate
about the Deity Coronation Scroll.
It seems like you two
have the same interest!
A bunch of fools!
Chancellor!
Ne Zha!
You were fooling us all the time.
Your temper is eccentric indeed.
On the count of three,
put down your weapons.
-Three...
-One!
Wait, even though the deal is off,
we're still friends, am I right?
This is a matter of principles!
Humans and deities will never be the same!
Outside.
I sense movements outside.
The enemy is attacking!
Prepare for battle!
General Deng, don't kill me!
I'm your comrade!
Ne Zha!
Protect the people!
Okay!
Destroy!
The Zhou army is attacking!
The Zhou army is attacking!
You guys want to assassinate our king?
I suppose this is the first time
someone is looking at you
from a lower perspective.
Go to hell!
With your intellect,
you'll be a thief at most.
Don't touch him!
You're assisting the evil King Zhou!
You don't deserve to be a deity!
Huang Tian Hua!
Right now,
you guys are the ones
who are assisting the evil King Zhou.
King Wu was once
revered by all of his people.
But now,
he commands the deities
in order to hurt innocent civilians.
He's going against fate.
Even if Shang Dynasty were to fall,
the people will never bow to him.
No matter what type of despicable trick
you're using,
us humans will never submit to you!
Huang Tian Hua!
You won't submit to me?
The entire human realm
needs to submit to me!
It's a pity you won't
survive long enough to see it.
Hand over the scroll
and we won't kill him.
Here you go!
Huang Tian Hua!
Huang Tian Hua!
You're seriously wounded!
We need to treat you immediately!
This time,
I suppose...
I suppose this is as good as
a bag of reward, am I right?
Huang Tian Hua!
Huang Tian Hua!
Huang Tian Hua!
Tian Hua always believed that
the deities our chancellor had gathered
will help us end this chaotic era.
But,
he couldn't survive long enough
to see it for himself.
My lord,
do you believe in them then?
As the south wind blows,
pikes and lances fall to the ground
Saluting our comrades
as they ascend to heaven
Welling with grief
as they strike the war drum
Sacrificing oneself for their king
Remembering our comrades
as we travel through the mountains
Travelling to the promised land
in tattered clothes
Taking pity on the dead
as they're buried
Returning to the kingdom
under the azure heaven
Is that all of them?
Yeah.
I heard that his father was
a general within the Zhou Army.
He died
on the battlefield in the past as well.
Why are they sacrificing themselves?
They're sacrificing
themselves for their belief.
They longed for
a peaceful era.
But is it worth it for so many of them
to die in order to kill one person?
It's worth it for
the sake of their belief.
But,
maybe we can't win this war.
Not necessarily.
Have you ever thought of why
Shen Gong Bao let us capture him
in Zhenxun City?
He's doing that in order to defeat us
and make everyone hate us.
In the end,
he succeeded.
No, he hasn't succeeded yet.
He still has one step to go.
The Gate of Heaven?
Reporting in!
Chancellor, the deities
have left our camp.
They must've found Shen Gong Bao.
It's in the direction of Tongguan City.
My lord,
I suggest you order our army
to move and attack Zhaoge immediately!
You're smarter than
what people think of you.
You guys are just plain dumb!
The army of Jie Sect will arrive soon.
The human realm will belong to me soon.
Do you really think a lotus root
like me has a soul?
You want me to hand
the human realm to you?
In your dreams!
From now on,
humans will know the meaning of fear!
Chancellor, what happened
in Tongguan City?
It's the Deity Massacre Formation.
Deity Massacre Formation?
The fated calamity will descend
the human realm.
Master, welcome to the human realm.
It is time to create a new world!
Master, welcome to the human realm.
It is time to create a new world!
Seems like this is a big deal.
You guys can come later, you know?
Help!
Don't touch it!
It's useless! No one can save us now!
This is hard to deal with!
They're connected to the formation.
They'll live as long as it is intact.
They'll fall once
the formation falls apart!
We're done for. This formation
has a limitless amount of energy.
The human realm
will be devoured eventually!
Let's deal with the guardians one by one.
We mustn't let them
enlarge the formation any longer.
They won't give us time
to destroy the formation.
Have you seen this thing before?
Ne Zha, be careful!
Be careful!
Let me summon my army.
Yang Jian, how do we fight them?
We'll work as a team.
Before the Gate of Heaven closes,
Ne Zha, you'll deal with the
southeastern point.
Lei Zhen Zi, you'll deal with the
northwestern point.
Tu Xing Sun, you'll maneuver the field.
You must defeat the beasts
if he summons them again.
General Deng and I will
deal with the rest.
We will protect the people as well.
Wait a minute!
Why must I be the one
who deals with the beasts?
I guess fortune favours the bold, huh?
Everyone, take your positions.
Destroy the Gate of Heaven
when you find a chance!
How do we fight against all of them?
In the past, deities were summoned
in order to deal with calamities
and disasters.
Even though we gave in to them,
humans never appreciated our efforts.
It's time for me to purge
this unfaithful world.
How can I be king
if you destroy everything?
Didn't you promise that
you'll hand the human realm to me?
I'll hand it to you once I purged it.
Well said!
You should just hand the human realm
to me!
Let me end everything!
You two don't want to
King Zhou's lackeys anymore?
How could you deities
just hide within the human realm?
This isn't the human realm!
This is our home!
No one will destroy it!
Yes! It's our home!
The deity is right!
This is our home!
We won't be their lackeys anymore!
Yeah! We quit!
Yeah! We quit!
We quit!
-Cover me!
-Alright!
Dumb woman.
-Wretched civilian!
-Beat him up!
-Beat him up!
-Wretched civilians!
Wretched civilians!
What are you guys trying to do?
What are you guys trying to do?
Burn him alive!
With this flame,
I'll avenge our fallen warriors
and General Huang Tian Hua!
Wait!
General Deng, I know
how to drive away the Jie Sect.
Tell me.
Give it to me.
General Deng, I wish you success.
It's pretty easy to be a deity.
I wish you success.
Arrogant humans,
I'll accomplish this glorious
mission instead of you...
He's so talkative.
Inferior humans,
all of you will burn under my wrath.
The entire realm will cower in fear
because of my will!
Everything will turn into ashes!
I think it's time for me
to deal with the ringleader.
Wait!
-Nobody shall hurt my woman!
-Who's your woman?
-We're in this situation already...
-Stop talking! Just do it already!
Alright!
Humans and deities nowadays
are crazier than what I've expected.
We need to buy time!
Hang in there!
Let's finish him off!
Ne Zha!
Ne Zha!
Ne Zha!
Ne Zha!
Puny ants.
No one will be able to stop me!
General Deng!
You're a deity yourself.
Why are you helping the humans?
Because this is our home.
He's right! This is our home!
You won't be able to destroy our hope!
You will never succeed!
We'll return all the pain and
suffering to you!
Master, I don't want to die!
Master!
Look at me!
Save me!
Master, I don't want to die!
Master, I don't want to die!
Master, we're here!
Look at us!
Master, save me!
Save me!
Save me!
Master, I don't want to die!
Master, save me!
Master, I don't want to die!
Master, save us!
Thank you,
our hero.
You're welcome.
Just ask the others
to repeat what you've said just now.
-And them!
-It's Yang Jian and the rest.
They're our heroes!
Our heroes!
Our heroes!
Our heroes!
Your father will be proud of you.
There's nothing to be proud of.
It was my duty.
Deities,
we would've lost the war
without you guys.
Thank you.
What a terrible end to my majestic era!
Yang Jian,
I suggest you look at the bigger picture.
If you lock me outside the Ninth Heaven,
the Deity Coronation Scroll
will disappear as well.
By then,
how will you explain yourself
to King Wu and Jiang Zi Ya?
We've accomplished the mission
listed by the Deity Coronation Scroll.
No, there's one more thing.
Look at this!
Since the Shang Dynasty has fallen,
the Deity Coronation Scroll
has returned to heaven as well.
Seems like everyone
has achieved what they wanted.
My lord, I suppose
your wish hasn't been achieved yet.
This is only the beginning of
a peaceful era.
General Deng, why don't you
follow me on my adventures?
I guess my wish has been achieved as well.
But, the deities had left the human realm.
And the Deity Coronation Scroll
isn't around anymore.
If, we face the same situation again,
what should we do?
By then, they'll descend upon
the human realm once again.
Is that a new pact?
That's
a promise between friends.
