Story:

In ancient times, the Chinese land was inhabited by the Huangdi, Yan Emperor, and Chiyou tribes. The Huangdi tribe defeated the Yan Emperor tribe in the northwest, achieving the unification of these two major tribes.

The Yan Emperor then requested Huangdi to attack the Jiuli tribe. The leader of the Jiuli tribe, Chiyou, had 81 brothers, all of whom had human heads and beast bodies, with brass heads and iron foreheads.

The Celestial Goddess (Xuan Nü) was sent to bestow military strategies and divine talismans upon Huangdi, enabling him to subdue Chiyou.
