exceptional beauty Revenge Oh So this is the one By the time of the third part Still had a cold This time the *Benny Cat* project will integrate all official materials released including the second installment 's concept art as well as plot clues revealed by the creative team during numerous recordings and interviews Revealing the plot of the second installment for everyone This video might get deleted due to excessive spoilers Collected and organized the research losing 3 568 hairs in the process Friends please give a like to help Benny Cat fix his hair a bit — thank you all Director Wuershan who directed *Fengshen* once said The plot of the second part will be centered around the 36th Route of Fasiqi In the second part since it's the 36th Route of Fasiqi This entire section The adaptation of Journey to the West from chapter 34 to 66 is a highly condensed version of the storyline involving the 36 armies marching against Western Qi with many characters merged and streamlined That is the Shang forces launched a military campaign against Western Qi then the third part would be Western Qi's counterattack against Zhao Ge this three-part structure thus becomes relatively complete Now let's examine the official plot summary Grand Tutor Wen Zhong led Deng Chan Yu and the four generals of Mo Family as the forces of Yin Shang approached Western Qi and immediately launched their campaign with the assistance of Jiang Ziya and the ancestors of Kunlun Leading the Western Qi army and people to utterly defeat the Ten Perilous Arrays Protecting our homeland This text is indeed quite official in tone but at least it reveals the second installment's key character and a pivotal battle The Chinese Grand Minister Deng Shanyu and the four generals of the Mo family have all made their appearances in the post-credit scene of the first installment in fact Tai Luan also appeared alongside them The vanguard commander under Deng Jiugong is fearless in battle a force of unmatched valor their early appearance foreshadows their significant role in the sequel But most of them don’t survive past the second installment Why say that Because in the cast list for the third part we no longer see Master Mun-tae or the Four Generals of Mo And even the name Tai Luan seemed to foreshadow their fate Let's first examine the Mo Family Four Generals—their concept art has already appeared multiple times in the box office visuals Let's examine the details on these concept maps one by one In the 1.9 billion concept map the giant about to sink is Morichin—he is the eldest and leader of the Four Generals of the Mo family His weapons are the Qingyun Sword Tiger-Head Spear and Jade Golden Bracelet unlike his brothers he possesses no magical artifact relying instead primarily on physical attacks—clearly less suited for flashy displays So starting with him as a meal companion makes perfect sense really PS has an official concept art guessing game event which is a crucial source official information Giants clearly had an advantage in underwater combat since they could fight while standing in the water but this also became their weakness due to the unpredictable nature of the underwater environment Ji Fa likely used the Morichin script to lure him into deep water then escaped the danger with the help of the flying thunder chariot Turning the tables he stood atop Morichin's head and shot arrows straight into his eyes—after all he had swum in the Yellow River before and shooting arrows at the eyes was nothing new Everyone who knows knows The concept art labeled 13E depicts a great battle between two armies at the mouth of the Yellow River The giant in front is the Morilu beast wielding twin whips—though some say they are twin shears His artifact is the amethyst fox squirrel— appearing like a white rat it can grow as large as an elephant and sprout wings when thrown into the air and the worst part is it eats people In the original story the weasel-eared fox ate the sheep -cut but in the end the sheep-cut transformed into the appearance of the weasel-eared fox and turned the tables on it standing behind is Morihai his weapon a long spear The relic is a green jade pipa with four strings representing earth water fire and wind when the strings vibrate fire and wind surge forth with explosive force giving it a distinctly large-scale area-of-effect feel The giants' combat in the river was nothing short of a one-sided massacre so the Western Qi fleet was easily destroyed Judging from this diagram The Shang forces clearly had the upper hand In the 16E concept art it's the Moli Beast and Moli Red It seems the Moli Beast successfully crossed the Yellow River Survived The other surviving giant is Morihong His weapon is the Fangtian Huaji His treasure is the Round Umbrella When opened it plunges the sky into darkness The sun and moon lose their light Turn the heavens and the earth tremble Shake once and you can claim the enemy's treasures and weapons Study the image carefully The giant is under attack from both above and below the city walls That means the giant must have already breached the western gate of Xiqi Ordinary people stand no chance against giants The soldiers were locked in a desperate struggle The falling giant on the 11E concept art is Morihong The warrior on the foreground of the concept map riding a white horse is King Fa riding the Snow Dragon Chariot and the weapon he holds is likely the ghost monkey sword of Yin Jiao as he charges forward at great speed Using sound as a lure to draw Morihong's attention he noticed shattered jars on the ground—likely containing wine or oil that could be ignited This was originally a tactic employed by the Yin Merchant faction Now the Western Qi side is turning the tables on Mo Li Hong by using his own tactics against him—this image likely aims to provoke and lure Mo Li Hong into a trap causing him to fall and then attacking him with fire The image also shows civilians participating so this scene undoubtedly took place in the city of Xiqi Furthermore the unified combat between soldiers and civilians indirectly reflects that King Wu of Zhou Ji Fa was widely supported by the people The giant in the 1.5-billion-concept diagram is the Morilu beast at this moment Xiqi's city has fallen placing him in extreme peril—then Yinjiao appears in a three -headed six-armed divine form to conclude the scene On the other side lies another giant felled by the shadow pepper—its identity unclear —but the campaign of the Mo family's four generals may very well end right here In the original text the four generals of the Mo family die in chapter 41 all slain by Huang Tianhua the son of Huang Feihu using the Heart-Cutting Nail however Huang Feihu and Huang Tianhua have both been removed So the killer must be someone else Or perhaps take a look at this concept sketch Undoubtedly the most thrilling element is the three-headed six-armed Yin Jiao Visually he is unrecognizable compared to the Yin Jiao seen in the first installment as the sole failure in the long history of rescuing prisoners from execution his misfortune ultimately turned into fortune Arrived at Kunlun Mountain's operating theater for a street surgery The 2.1 billion concept art revealed the discussion among the primordial deities and other golden immortals about whether to intervene in the matter of Yin Jiao's street incident His identity was somewhat awkward—after all he was the son of a yin beast so sparking controversy was inevitable The original 63rd chapter is titled "Deep Palace Report " and I feel this plot point is conveyed with complete clarity— Yin Jiao is likely to waver back and forth Become a turning point in the story making the brotherly bond in the third installment even more compelling in the tale of split identities Yin Jiao bows before the tutelage of Kuang Chenzi Seven divine beans were used resulting in two additional heads and four arms each head now has an extra eye on its forehead But in the concept sketch the third eye isn't visible yet—maybe it hasn't opened yet What's the greatest advantage of having three heads and six arms Anyone who's played the game knows It has more equipment slots than others do—originally it possesses the Heaven-Overturning Seal the Soul-Stealing Bell the Twin Swords of Male and Female and the Fangtian Huaji These weapons and artifacts can basically be seen on the 2-billion-concept art and in the studio posters with the Flip-the-Sky Seal being the resonant treasure of Yin Jiao Master Guang Chenzizi Deadly precision with a headshot Capable of splitting mountains and shattering stone Devastating destructive power After the Soul-Loosing Bell is shaken enemies are left trembling with fear and spiritless His spirit drained and power faltering he collapsed If these artifacts appeared in a movie I'd definitely rent it on TV and then take a closer look at this concept art again Its file is titled "Xiqi City Outside Yinjiao Activation" But at first glance where exactly is the activation point Everyone says the small dot next to it is the activation point of Xiqi's top marksman The sight of the lone bird wasn't entirely unconvincing after all But the fellow on the right was unmistakably distinctive wielding a pair of twin whips the male and female dragon whips This is the gift bestowed by Grand Tutor Wen Zhong of the Yin-Shang dynasty to Yin Jiao—there's a fierce battle ahead We know Grand Tutor Wen is most likely to halt at the second step could he ultimately fall in this very battle It shouldn't be an issue—Wenzhong still needs to set up the Ten Deadly Arrays to counter Western Qi The conceptual diagram of eighteen billion depicts Grand Master Wen's grand deployment of the Ten Deadly Arrays with the twin whips being his signature weapons This tenfold deadly array is no ordinary feat—crafted by the elder brothers and fellow disciples of the Wen Tai Shi the Ten Heavenly Lords of the Golden Oath Island in the original text the one who broke the阵 was The fellow disciples of Jiang Ziya's Zen sect—known as the Kunlun Sages—are the ones involved so those worried about missing the divine battle in the second phase can rest assured Director Wan also clearly mentioned that the Ten Deadly Arrays will be the focus of the second phase which primarily revolves around the great destruction of the Ten Deadly Arrays as listed in the cast and crew credits We saw Guangchengzi and Jiliousun in the original work Guangchengzi was the one who broke the Golden Light Array which contained twenty-one magical mirrors their golden light shining upon him Immediately turned into thick blood This conceptual diagram worth 1.8 billion somewhat reveals the essence of the Golden Light Formation Of course there's another possibility it could be a combination of several formations The description of a certain plot element involving a companion was once approved by the director Jinai has ten flags and ten light mirrors suggesting they form a single grand formation by combining ten smaller ones Using a central altar manipulate ten banners each corresponding to the function of a specific phase then transmit the energy through that light mirror which ascends into the sky and envelops Xiqi Moreover Ju Liu-Sun is the one who breaks the Earth-Rift Formation within the Earth-Rift Formation thunder roars above and flames rise below—any mortal who enters this formation no matter how skilled in the Five Elements' subtle arts will face certain peril The ancient aura and the clear path are unavoidable These two formations are highly likely to appear Additionally in the diagram of the fourteen-billion concept a figure named Lei Zizi is seen carrying a person on his back Officially this is identified as Ji Fa Judging by his prone posture Either dead or severely injured —Ji Fa was already present in the original text personally participating in the battle against the Ten Deadly Arrays the final one being the Red Sand Array where he narrowly escaped disaster But in the end they’re always rescued by celestial beings The Ten Deadly Arrays arc is quite lengthy It would be hard to fully grasp the complete array in a movie There are simply too many arrays I’ve specially selected some of the most intriguing ones So which formations do you think are most likely to appear After the original Ten Deadly Arrays were broken in the text Minister Wen's fortunes were irreversibly lost Forced into continuous retreat Ultimately dying in Chapter 52 Wen Zhong's soul ascended to heaven at Juelong Ridge Wushan said Wen Zhong was the most upright among the villains Fei Xiang the actor who portrayed the eagle beast said Wen the Grand Tutor was a figure even the fierce Sky-Eagle Beasts feared In "The Legend of Burning the Gods " Wen the Grand Tutor was a seasoned statesman from three reigns a loyal minister of ancient tradition After returning to court Seeing Pao Luo Zhu and the dire state of the people he immediately proposed ten reform measures to King Zhou—this detail is likely to appear as a subtle element in the film The relationship between the Eagle Beast and Master Bunta could never be mere blind loyalty the conflicts between ruler and subject will also be a major highlight of the second Chinese drama In the hidden scene Wenzhong opened his third eye—most likely this eye was opened specifically for Daji as Grand Minister Wen sensed demonic energy emanating from Zhao Ge Yet the eagle creature's favoritism toward Daj The griffins will surely use Master Bentai to attack Western Qi but they'll never fully trust him I suspect they're likely to alter the plan The griffin used someone else's hand to indirectly eliminate Wen Zhong — how exactly he'll meet his end will have to wait until the full version is released — but fans of *Burning the God* can rest assured Deng Shanyu is highly likely to survive through the third installment he's listed in the cast credits in the original novel Deng Shanyu dies in chapter 87 Nor is she mentioned in the 34th to 66th chapters described in the second part Deng Shanyu is the daughter of Deng Jiugong the commander of the Three Mountains Pass during the Shang dynasty Charming and beautiful with a fiery temperament loyal and righteous skilled in swordsmanship and adept at wielding the five-colored stones In the concept art of "Twenty-Two Missions" Deng Shanyu delivered a pre-battle pep talk to Mo's Four Generals and other brave warriors of Yin Dynasty as thunder and rain lashed the background mirroring the wrath of heaven In the concept art for "Twelve Roles " Deng Shanyu and Tai Luan are shown leading a large army preparing to cross the Yellow River to attack Western Qi—notice the method of crossing with some soldiers repairing a bridge There seems to be a fierce battle brewing around this bridge — it reminds me of the plot in The Battle at Lake Changjin after all the only way to halt the rapid crossing of the Shang army across the river is through determined resistance They're planning to destroy the bridge PS Neither of the two images shows Master Wên Master Wên didn't lead troops on a reckless campaign That fact is also suspicious It's likely a hint at lingering tensions between the King of Zhou and King Zhou as seen in the box office concept art for "Thirteen Warriors " which features a warrior riding a white horse—some say this image sparked the inspiration Because he rides a white horse but if you pay attention to the hidden scene in the first installment you'll notice that Deng Chanyu also rides a white horse and in the image the white horse rider He appears to be aligned with Mo's Four Generals and the weapon in his hand isn't a sword—it's a knife Since Deng Chan Yu's designated weapon is a pair of knives holding one in his left hand makes perfect sense Therefore Ban Shizhao believes this character is most likely Deng Shanyu and a great underwater battle will unfold between Deng Shanyu and Jifa The outcome should be Deng Chanyu gaining the upper hand with the assistance of the Mo family's four generals as depicted in the conceptual artwork of "Seventeenth Mission " where we see Deng Chanyu apprehending Jifa Tying the spark to the tree might very well be the little lady's clever tactic to outmaneuver the spark —after all one is a warrior the other a marksman and in close combat her strategy proved victorious There's no chance of success— at night they will face a black bear spirit on Deng Chan Yu's hand not the knife he's skilled with but a sword Deng Shanyu is highly likely to unleash a powerful activation enabling the two of them to jointly confront a formidable enemy—this also suggests they will have greater opportunities for interaction In the original work Deng Shanyu is susceptible to being turned by the Western Qi army—this plot point is highly likely to be retained in the adaptation Additionally we know that the film has cut out Tuxing Sun That is the husband of Deng Shanyu in the original work—would he be married in the movie and to whom Deng Shanyu rides a white horse The horse ridden by Ji Fa is also a white horse—could this be mere coincidence Regardless Deng Shanyu's fate grows ever more intriguing PS Miss Deng Shanyu She may not be a classic beauty by traditional standards but she hits my aesthetic perfectly—can anyone else share the same taste as someone who’s drawn to half a cat Finally let’s take a look at the other characters—Teacher Li Xuejian as King Wen of Zhou In the cast lists for the second and third films although he appears in the second film this character is likely to die as the director has stated that Lei Zhenzi is the sole surviving relative to be inspired in both the second and third films Moreover in the second and third installments Lei Zhenzi actually triggers the sole marriage event in the original work Ji Chang dies in chapter 29 so it's highly likely that shortly after the beginning of the second installment There will be a scene depicting King Ji Chang's death additionally Jiang Wenhuan and E Shun are both on the list for the second installment—Jiang Wenhuan will appear to have died but he definitely hasn't and he'll reappear again Aoshun should be completely dead but might appear in the form of memories Incidentally Su Quan- ho's name also showed up on the list for the third installment Additionally in the cast list for the second installment I spotted the Three Xiao Goddesses—three stunning beauties—known collectively as Yunxiao Bixiao and Qiongxiao They are disciples of the Supreme Lord of the Teaching of Universal Unity blessed with two treasures bestowed by their master: the Golden Banana Cocoon and the Primordial Golden Beans The Golden Banana Cocoon was formed from two dragon serpents The head of the dragon resembles a coon the tail a bone Even a sage who has attained enlightenment cannot avoid being severed into two pieces Its destructive power rivals the second heavenly tribulation The Primordial Golden Beans can hold within them all things in heaven and earth And possessing an irresistible power to capture immortal beings and objects the golden light emerges—no fate can escape it Could they be the pivotal characters in the second installment From the fiftieth chapter of the original work The Three Xiao Queens had already made their grand appearance in the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation before Wenzhong's passing but director Wu Ershan stated that the Three Xiao Queens would serve as the primary antagonist in the third installment each possessing their own distinct presence And San Xiao is the most important antagonist in the third installment set in the Nine-Bend Yellow River Town both of which are particularly favored—so all three goddesses have arrived Yes the San Xiao Goddess So the goddesses are likely to appear much like Wenzhong did—just making a brief cameo Another mystery remains: will Zhao Gongming the brother of the Three Xiao goddesses show up His presence in the entire story of The Divine Dandy is among the most notable and as of now he hasn't appeared on the cast list for the adaptation Could he become the hidden boss in the second installment Well then that concludes the storyline summary for Part 2 of Ban's Cat If you also want to see the main film released as soon as possible you know what to do right The film's release has been postponed to September So far Ben the cat has already contributed eight tickets And he's likely to keep going One vote from you one from me Master Men will return to court tomorrow so let's meet again next time Bye for now
