It is a follow-up to 2019’s Ne Zha and the second installment of the Fengshen Cinematic Universe.

Jiang Ziya is traditionally depicted in Chinese fiction as a Taoist adept in Chinese folk religion and Taoism. In this film, Jiang Ziya is portrayed as a middle-aged man who insists on following his heart despite having a complex past.

On 12 December 2019, the producers released their first trailer.
